2 Kings 25
1 So in the ninth year of Zedekiah’s reign, on the tenth day of the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon marched against Jerusalem with his entire army. They encamped outside the city and built a siege wall all around it.
Hahoi a bawinae kum 6 nae thapa yung 10, hnin 10 hnin vah hettelah ao. Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar hoi a ransanaw pueng hoi Jerusalem taranlahoi a tho awh teh a roe sin awh. A tengpam abuemlah tarantuknae tangkom koung a tai awh.
2 And the city was kept under siege until King Zedekiah’s eleventh year.
Hottelah siangpahrang Zedekiah a bawinae kum 11 totouh kho teh a kalup awh.
3 By the ninth day of the fourth month, the famine in the city was so severe that the people of the land had no food.
Thapa yung 4 nah hnin 9 hnin vah ram thung e taminaw hanelah rawca laipalah ka patawpoung e takang a tho.
4 Then the city was breached; and though the Chaldeans had surrounded the city, all the men of war fled by night by way of the gate between the two walls near the king’s garden. They headed toward the Arabah,
Hahoi khopui kalupnae tapang hah vak a muk awh teh, karum lah tarankatuknaw teh siangpahrang takha teng e kalupnae tapang kahni touh e rahak kalupnae longkha koe lah a yawng awh. Khaldean taminaw ni kho hah king a ring awh teh siangpahrang teh tanghling lam koe lah a cei.
5 but the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king and overtook him in the plains of Jericho, and all his army was separated from him.
Hatei teh, Khaldean ransanaw ni siangpahrang hah pâlei awh teh, Jeriko tanghling dawk a pha awh, a ransanaw pueng ni dung a yawng takhai awh.
6 The Chaldeans seized the king and brought him up to the king of Babylon at Riblah, where they pronounced judgment on him.
Siangpahrang hah a man awh teh Riblah vah Babilon siangpahrang koe a hrawi awh teh lawk a ceng awh.
7 And they slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes. Then they put out his eyes, bound him with bronze shackles, and took him to Babylon.
Zedekiah e capa hah a mithmu vah a thei awh. Zedekiah e a mitmu hah a cawngkhawi awh teh, king a katek nalaihoi Babilon vah a hrawi awh.
8 On the seventh day of the fifth month, in the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar’s reign over Babylon, Nebuzaradan captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, entered Jerusalem.
Hottelah Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar a bawinae kum 9, thapa yung 5, hnin 7 hnin vah Babilon siangpahrang karingkungnaw kahrawikung, Nebuzaradan teh Jerusalem vah a kâen.
9 He burned down the house of the LORD, the royal palace, and all the houses of Jerusalem—every significant building.
BAWIPA im hoi siangpahrang im hah hmai a sawi awh teh Jerusalem imnaw pueng im kalennaw pueng hah hmai koung a sawi awh.
10 And the whole army of the Chaldeans under the captain of the guard broke down the walls around Jerusalem.
Karingnaw kahrawikungnaw koe kaawm e Khaldean ransanaw pueng ni Jerusalem rapannaw pueng hah a raphoe awh.
11 Then Nebuzaradan captain of the guard carried into exile the people who remained in the city, along with the deserters who had defected to the king of Babylon and the rest of the population.
Khopui thung kaawm rae naw pueng hoi, Babilon siangpahrang koe lah kaawm e taminaw pueng hoi, karingkungnaw kahrawikung Nebuzaradan ni san lah a hrawi awh.
12 But the captain of the guard left behind some of the poorest of the land to tend the vineyards and fields.
Hote ram dawk e karoedengnaw, banghai cungkeihoehe naw karingkungnaw kahrawikung ni takhakatawkkungnaw hoi law kaphawnaw lah a ta awh.
13 Moreover, the Chaldeans broke up the bronze pillars and stands and the bronze Sea in the house of the LORD, and they carried the bronze to Babylon.
Bawipa im dawk e rahum khompui hoi, rahum e tui im, tui kamhluknae naw hah Khaldean taminaw ni rakrak a hem awh teh rahum naw hah Babilon vah a sin awh.
14 They also took away the pots, shovels, wick trimmers, dishes, and all the articles of bronze used in the temple service.
Hlaam hoi hraba kawnnae, hmaiim, paitei, pacen hoi, rahum ailo, tongben pueng, thawngnae hnopai pueng koung a la awh.
15 The captain of the guard also took away the censers and sprinkling bowls—anything made of pure gold or fine silver.
Tongben hoi, hlaam, sui hoi ngun hoi sak e hnopainaw pueng karingkungnaw kahrawikung ni koung a la pouh.
16 As for the two pillars, the Sea, and the movable stands that Solomon had made for the house of the LORD, the weight of the bronze from all these articles was beyond measure.
Solomon ni BAWIPA im hanelah a sak e khom kahni touh hoi rahum tuiim hoi rahum pâhungnae amkhoung, rahum a ri e teh panue thai hanelah awm hoeh.
17 Each pillar was eighteen cubits tall. The bronze capital atop one pillar was three cubits high, with a network of bronze pomegranates all around. The second pillar, with its network, was similar.
Khom ka rasang poung e teh dong 18 touh a pha teh, a som vah rahum khom pasum e ao. Hate rahum khom pasum e teh dong 3 touh a rasang, rahum khom pasum e dawk rahum em hoi, rahumnaw hoi akawi. Alouke khomnaw hai hottelah ao teh, rahum emnaw hoi akawi.
18 The captain of the guard also took away Seraiah the chief priest, Zephaniah the priest of second rank, and the three doorkeepers.
Karingkungnaw kahrawikung ni vaihma bawi Seraiah hoi vaihma Zephaniah hoi tho ka ring e kathum touh a man.
19 Of those still in the city, he took a court official who had been appointed over the men of war, as well as five royal advisors. He also took the scribe of the captain of the army, who had enlisted the people of the land, and sixty men who were found in the city.
Taran ka tuk e ransabawi buet touh hoi siangpahrang ouk a kâhmonae khopui dawk hmu e 5 touh hoi cakathutkung hoi khopui thung hmu e naw hah ram thung e 60 touh hoi khopui thung hoi a man awh.
20 Nebuzaradan captain of the guard took them and brought them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
Karingkungnaw kahrawikung Nebuzaradan ni Riblah hoi Babilon siangpahrang koevah a ceikhai.
21 There at Riblah in the land of Hamath, the king of Babylon struck them down and put them to death. So Judah was taken into exile, away from its own land.
Babilon siangpahrang ni Hamath ram e Riblah vah a thei awh. Hahoi teh, Judahnaw teh a ram dawk hoi san lah a hrawi awh.
22 Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon appointed Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, over the people he had left behind in the land of Judah.
Hahoi Babilon siangpahrang Nebukhadnezar ni, Judah ram a ta e tami thung dawk Shaphan capa, Ahikam capa Gadaliah hah bawi lah a ta awh.
23 When all the commanders of the armies and their men heard that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedaliah as governor, they came to Gedaliah at Mizpah—Ishmael son of Nethaniah, Johanan son of Kareah, Seraiah son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah son of the Maacathite, as well as their men.
Hahoi teh, ransa kahrawikungnaw pueng hoi a kut rahim e naw ni Babilon siangpahrang ni, Gadaliah teh bawi lah a sak toe tie a panue awh toteh, Mizpah vah Gadaliah koevah a cei awh. Hotnaw teh, Nathaniah capa Ishmael, Kareah capa Johanan, Netophah tami Tanhumeth capa Seraiah, Maakath capa Jaazaniah hoi a kut rahim e naw doeh.
24 And Gedaliah took an oath before them and their men, assuring them, “Do not be afraid of the servants of the Chaldeans. Live in the land and serve the king of Babylon, and it will be well with you.”
Gedaliah ni hote taminaw hoi a taminaw koevah, lawkkamnae a sak teh ahnimouh koe Khaldeannaw e san lah o hanelah taket hanh awh. Het ram dawk ma pou awm awh. Babilon siangpahrang kâ ngainae rahim vah awm awh nateh, namamouh hane kahawi han atipouh.
25 In the seventh month, however, Ishmael son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, who was a member of the royal family, came with ten men and struck down and killed Gedaliah, along with the Judeans and Chaldeans who were with him at Mizpah.
Hatei thapa yung 7 nah, siangpahrang catoun Elishama capa Nathaniah capa Ishmael ni tami 10 touh a ceikhai teh, Gedaliah teh Mizpah e Judahnaw koe kaawm e Khaldean taminaw hoi a tuk awh teh be a thei awh.
26 Then all the people small and great, together with the commanders of the army, arose and fled to Egypt for fear of the Chaldeans.
Hottelah taminaw pueng kalen, kathoung ransabawinaw hoi a tâco teh, Izip ram vah a cei awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Khaldean taminaw, a taki awh dawk doeh.
27 On the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth month of the thirty-seventh year of the exile of Judah’s King Jehoiachin, in the year Evil-merodach became king of Babylon, he released King Jehoiachin of Judah from prison.
Hahoi Jehoiakhin san lah a onae kum 37, thapa 12, hnin 27 nah Babilon siangpahrang, Evilmerodak ni a bawinae kum nah Judah siangpahrang Jehoiakhin teh, thongim thung hoi a hlout sak.
28 And he spoke kindly to Jehoiachin and set his throne above the thrones of the other kings who were with him in Babylon.
Kahawicalah kho a pouk teh Babilon vah ahni koe kaawm e siangpahrangnaw hlak ka rasang poung e tungkhung a poe.
29 So Jehoiachin changed out of his prison clothes, and he dined regularly at the king’s table for the rest of his life.
Jehoiakhin teh, thongim a bonae khohna a kâthung teh a hringyung thung pueng siangpahrang hmalah a ca a nei.
30 And the king provided Jehoiachin a daily portion for the rest of his life.
A hringyung thung hnintangkuem a ca hanelah siangpahrang ni a poe teh a coe sak.
