< 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.
A rana ta goma ga wata na goma, a shekara ta tara ta mulkin Zedekiya ne Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon tare da dukan rundunan yaƙinsa, ya tasam wa Urushalima. Ya yi sansani a bayan birnin, ya kewaye ta da shirin yaƙi.
2 And the city was kept under siege until King Zedekiah’s eleventh year.
Haka birnin ta kasance a kewaye har shekara ta goma sha ɗaya ta mulkin Zedekiya.
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.
A rana ta tara ta watan huɗu, lokacin da yunwa ta yi tsanani a birnin, babu kuma abinci domin mutane su ci.
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,
Sai aka huda katanga sa’an nan dukan sojoji suka tsere da dare a ƙofa tsakanin katanga biyu da suke kusa da lambun sarki, ko da yake Babiloniyawa sun kewaye birnin. Suka tsere suka nufi Araba.
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.
Amma sojojin Babiloniyawa suka bi sarki, suka cin masa a filayen Yeriko. Dukan sojojinsa kuwa suka rabu da shi suka watse.
6 The Chaldeans seized the king and brought him up to the king of Babylon at Riblah, where they pronounced judgment on him.
Aka kama shi, aka kai shi gaban sarkin Babilon a Ribla, inda aka yanke masa hukunci.
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.
Suka kashe’ya’yan Zedekiya a gabansa, sa’an nan aka ƙwaƙule idanunsa. Suka daure shi da sarƙar tagulla, suka kai shi Babilon.
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.
A rana ta bakwai na watan biyar, wadda ta zama shekara ta goma sha tara ta mulkin Sarki Nebukadnezzar na Babilon, Nebuzaradan, babban hafsan matsaran sarki, kuma bafadan sarkin Babilon, ya zo Urushalima
9 He burned down the house of the LORD, the royal palace, and all the houses of Jerusalem—every significant building.
Ya cinna wa haikalin Ubangiji wuta, da fadan sarki, da kuma dukan gidajen Urushalima. Ya kuma ƙone duk wani gini mai muhimmanci.
10 And the whole army of the Chaldeans under the captain of the guard broke down the walls around Jerusalem.
Dukan mayaƙan Babilon a ƙarƙashin umarnin babban hafsan matsaran sarki, suka rushe katangar Urushalima.
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.
Nebuzaradan babban hafsan matsaran, ya kwashi waɗanda suka rage a cikin birnin, tare da sauran jama’a, da waɗanda suka miƙa kansu ga sarkin Babilon, ya kai su bauta.
12 But the captain of the guard left behind some of the poorest of the land to tend the vineyards and fields.
Amma hafsan ya bar waɗansu daga cikin mafiya talauci na ƙasar don su yi aiki a lambunan inabi da kuma gonaki.
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.
Babiloniyawan kuma suka sassare ginshiƙan tagulla, da wuraren zama da za a iya matsar da su, da ƙaton kwano mai suna Teku na tagulla da yake a haikalin Ubangiji, suka kwashe tagullan zuwa Babilon.
14 They also took away the pots, shovels, wick trimmers, dishes, and all the articles of bronze used in the temple service.
Suka ɗauke tukwane, da manyan cokula, da acibalbal, da kwanoni, da dai dukan kayan da aka yi da tagulla don hidima a haikalin Ubangiji.
15 The captain of the guard also took away the censers and sprinkling bowls—anything made of pure gold or fine silver.
Babban hafsan matsaran sarkin ya kwashe har da kwanoni na kwashe garwashin wuta da sauran kwanoni, dukansu kuwa ƙeran zinariya ko azurfa tsatsa ne.
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.
Tagullar ginshiƙai biyun nan, da ta ƙaton kwanon da ake ce da shi Teku, da ta dukan amalanke masu riƙe ruwa waɗanda Sarki Solomon ya yi domin haikalin Ubangiji, sun fi gaba a auna su.
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.
Tsawon kowane ginshiƙi, ƙafa ashirin da bakwai ne. Hulunan tagullan da suke ƙwalƙwalin kowane ginshiƙi kuma yana da tsawon ƙafa huɗu da rabi. Kuma aka yi masa ado da saƙa da’ya’yan itace kewaye da shi. Bayan ginshiƙin ma haka yake.
18 The captain of the guard also took away Seraiah the chief priest, Zephaniah the priest of second rank, and the three doorkeepers.
Babban hafsan ya kwashi Serahiya babban firist, da Zefaniya na biye da shi a girma, da matsara ƙofofi uku.
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.
Daga cikin waɗanda suka rage a birnin, ya ɗauki hafsa mai kula da dakaru, da kuma mashawartan sarki guda biyar. Ya kuma tafi da magatakarda wanda yake babban jami’in soja mai ɗaukan dukan jama’an ƙasar, tare da mutanensa guda sittin waɗanda aka samu a birnin.
20 Nebuzaradan captain of the guard took them and brought them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
Nebuzaradan, babban hafsan, ya kwashe su duka ya kawo su wurin sarkin Babilon a Ribla.
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.
A can Ribla, a ƙasar Hamat, sarkin Babilon ya sa aka kashe su. Haka Yahuda ta tafi bauta daga ƙasarta.
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.
Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon ya zaɓi Gedaliya ɗan Ahikam, ɗan Shafan yă zama shugaban sauran mutanen da suka rage a Yahuda.
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.
Sa’ad da dukan hafsoshin soja tare da mutanensu suka ji cewa sarkin Babilon ya naɗa Gedaliya a matsayin gwamna, sai suka zo wurin Gedaliya a Mizfa. Mutanen da suka zo su ne, Ishmayel ɗan Netaniya, Yohanan ɗan Kareya, Serahiya ɗan Tanhumet mutumin Netofa, Ya’azaniya ɗan mutumin Ma’aka, tare da mutanensu.
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.”
Gedaliya ya tabbatar musu da rantsuwa cewa, “Kada ku ji tsoron jama’ar Babiloniyawa, muddin kun zauna lafiya, kun kuma bauta wa sarkin Babilon, kome zai yi muku kyau.”
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.
Amma a wata na bakwai, sai Ishmayel, ɗan Netaniya, ɗan Elishama, wanda yake daga gidan sarauta, ya zo tare da mutane goma, suka kashe Gedaliya duk da mutanen Yahuda, da na Babilon da suke tare da shi na Mizfa.
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.
Ganin haka sai dukan mutane, babba da ƙarami, tare da shugabannin sojoji, suka tashi suka gudu zuwa ƙasar Masar, gama suna tsoron mutanen Babilon.
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.
A shekara ta talatin da bakwai ta bautar Yehohiyacin sarkin Yahuda, a shekaran da Ewil-Merodak ya ci sarautan Babilon, sai ya saki Yehohiyacin daga jaru, ya sake shi a rana ashirin da bakwai ga watan goma sha biyu.
28 And he spoke kindly to Jehoiachin and set his throne above the thrones of the other kings who were with him in Babylon.
Ya yi wa Yehohiyacin maganar alheri, ya kuma ɗaukaka shi sama da sauran sarakunan da suke tare da shi a Babilon.
29 So Jehoiachin changed out of his prison clothes, and he dined regularly at the king’s table for the rest of his life.
Don haka Yehohiyacin ya tuɓe kayan fursuna. Kowace rana kuwa yakan ci abinci a teburin sarki har iyakar ransa.
30 And the king provided Jehoiachin a daily portion for the rest of his life.
Sarki kuma ya yanka masa kuɗin da za a dinga ba shi, kowace rana muddin ransa.
