Jeremiah 52
1 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. His mother’s name was Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah; she was from Libnah.
filius viginti et unius anni Sedecias cum regnare coepisset et undecim annis regnavit in Hierusalem et nomen matris eius Amithal filia Hieremiae de Lobna
2 And Zedekiah did evil in the sight of the LORD, just as Jehoiakim had done.
et fecit malum in oculis Domini iuxta omnia quae fecerat Ioachim
3 For because of the anger of the LORD, all this happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until He finally banished them from His presence. And Zedekiah also rebelled against the king of Babylon.
quoniam furor Domini erat in Hierusalem et in Iuda usquequo proiceret eos a facie sua et recessit Sedecias a rege Babylonis
4 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.
factum est autem in anno nono regni eius in mense decimo decima mensis venit Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis ipse et omnis exercitus eius adversum Hierusalem et obsederunt eam et aedificaverunt contra eam munitiones in circuitu
5 And the city was kept under siege until King Zedekiah’s eleventh year.
et fuit civitas obsessa usque ad undecimum annum regis Sedeciae
6 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.
mense autem quarto nona mensis obtinuit fames in civitate et non erant alimenta populo terrae
7 Then the city was breached; and though the Chaldeans had surrounded the city, all the men of war fled the city by night by way of the gate between the two walls near the king’s garden. They headed toward the Arabah,
et disrupta est civitas et omnes viri bellatores fugerunt et exierunt de civitate nocte per viam portae quae est inter duos muros et ducit ad hortum regis Chaldeis obsidentibus urbem in gyro et abierunt per viam quae ducit in heremum
8 but the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho, and all his army was separated from him.
persecutus est autem exercitus Chaldeorum regem et adprehenderunt Sedeciam in deserto quod est iuxta Hiericho et omnis comitatus eius diffugit ab eo
9 The Chaldeans seized the king and brought him up to the king of Babylon at Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he pronounced judgment on Zedekiah.
cumque conprehendissent regem adduxerunt eum ad regem Babylonis in Reblatha quae est in terra Emath et locutus est ad eum iudicia
10 There at Riblah the king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he also killed all the officials of Judah.
et iugulavit rex Babylonis filios Sedeciae in oculis eius sed et omnes principes Iudae occidit in Reblatha
11 Then he put out Zedekiah’s eyes, bound him with bronze shackles, and took him to Babylon, where he kept him in custody until his dying day.
et oculos Sedeciae eruit et vinxit eum conpedibus et adduxit eum rex Babylonis in Babylonem et posuit eum in domo carceris usque ad diem mortis eius
12 On the tenth 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.
in mense autem quinto decima mensis ipse est annus nonusdecimus Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis venit Nabuzardan princeps militiae qui stabat coram rege Babylonis in Hierusalem
13 He burned down the house of the LORD, the royal palace, and all the houses of Jerusalem—every significant building.
et incendit domum Domini et domum regis et omnes domos Hierusalem et omnem domum magnam igne conbusit
14 And the whole army of the Chaldeans under the captain of the guard broke down all the walls around Jerusalem.
et totum murum Hierusalem per circuitum destruxit cunctus exercitus Chaldeorum qui erat cum magistro militiae
15 Then Nebuzaradan captain of the guard carried into exile some of the poorest people and those who remained in the city, along with the deserters who had defected to the king of Babylon and the rest of the craftsmen.
de pauperibus autem populi et de reliquo vulgo quod remanserat in civitate et de perfugis qui transfugerant ad regem Babylonis et ceteros de multitudine transtulit Nabuzardan princeps militiae
16 But Nebuzaradan captain of the guard left behind some of the poorest of the land to tend the vineyards and fields.
de pauperibus vero terrae reliquit Nabuzardan princeps militiae in vinitores et in agricolas
17 Moreover, the Chaldeans broke up the bronze pillars and stands and the bronze Sea in the house of the LORD, and they carried all the bronze to Babylon.
columnas quoque aereas quae erant in domo Domini et bases et mare aereum quod erat in domo Domini confregerunt Chaldei et tulerunt omne aes eorum in Babylonem
18 They also took away the pots, shovels, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, dishes, and all the articles of bronze used in the temple service.
et lebetas et creagras et psalteria et fialas et mortariola et omnia vasa aerea quae in ministerio fuerant tulerunt
19 The captain of the guard also took away the basins, censers, sprinkling bowls, pots, lampstands, pans, and drink offering bowls—anything made of pure gold or fine silver.
et hydrias et thymiamateria et urceos et pelves et candelabra et mortaria et cyatos quotquot aurea aurea et quotquot argentea argentea tulit magister militiae
20 As for the two pillars, the Sea, the twelve bronze bulls under it, and the movable stands that King Solomon had made for the house of the LORD, the weight of the bronze from all these articles was beyond measure.
columnas duas et mare unum vitulos duodecim aereos qui erant sub basibus quas fecerat rex Salomon in domo Domini non erat pondus aeris omnium vasorum horum
21 Each pillar was eighteen cubits tall and twelve cubits in circumference; each was hollow, four fingers thick.
de columnis autem decem et octo cubiti altitudinis erant in columna una et funiculus duodecim cubitorum circuibat eam porro grossitudo eius quattuor digitorum et intrinsecus cava erat
22 The bronze capital atop one pillar was five cubits high, with a network of bronze pomegranates all around. The second pillar, with its pomegranates, was similar.
et capitella super utramque aerea altitudo capitelli unius quinque cubitorum et retiacula et mala granata
23 Each capital had ninety-six pomegranates on the sides, and a total of a hundred pomegranates were above the surrounding network.
nonaginta sex dependentia omnia mala granata centum retiaculis circumdabantur
24 The captain of the guard also took away Seraiah the chief priest, Zephaniah the priest of second rank, and the three doorkeepers.
et tulit magister militiae Saraiam sacerdotem primum et Sophoniam sacerdotem secundum et tres custodes vestibuli
25 Of those still in the city, he took a court official who had been appointed over the men of war, as well as seven trusted royal advisers. 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.
et de civitate tulit eunuchum unum qui erat praepositus super viros bellatores et septem viros de his qui videbant faciem regis qui inventi sunt in civitate et scribam principem militum qui probabat tirones et sexaginta viros de populo terrae qui inventi sunt in medio civitatis
26 Nebuzaradan captain of the guard took them and brought them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
tulit autem eos Nabuzardan magister militiae et duxit eos ad regem Babylonis in Reblatha
27 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.
et percussit eos rex Babylonis et interfecit eos in Reblatha in terra Emath et translatus est Iuda de terra sua
28 These are the people Nebuchadnezzar carried away: in the seventh year, 3,023 Jews;
iste est populus quem transtulit Nabuchodonosor in anno septimo Iudaeos tria milia et viginti tres
29 in Nebuchadnezzar’s eighteenth year, 832 people from Jerusalem;
in anno octavodecimo Nabuchodonosor de Hierusalem animas octingentas triginta duas
30 in Nebuchadnezzar’s twenty-third year, Nebuzaradan captain of the guard carried away 745 Jews. So in all, 4,600 people were taken away.
in anno vicesimo tertio Nabuchodonosor transtulit Nabuzardan magister militiae Iudaeorum animas septingentas quadraginta quinque omnes ergo animae quattuor milia sescentae
31 On the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth month of the thirty-seventh year of the exile of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the first year of the reign of Evil-merodach king of Babylon, he pardoned Jehoiachin king of Judah and released him from prison.
et factum est in tricesimo septimo anno transmigrationis Ioachim regis Iudae duodecimo mense vicesima quinta mensis elevavit Evilmerodach rex Babylonis ipso anno regni sui caput Ioachim regis Iudae et eduxit eum de domo carceris
32 And he spoke kindly to Jehoiachin and set his throne above the thrones of the other kings who were with him in Babylon.
et locutus est cum eo bona et posuit thronum eius super thronos regum qui erant post se in Babylone
33 So Jehoiachin changed out of his prison clothes, and he dined regularly at the king’s table for the rest of his life.
et mutavit vestimenta carceris eius et comedebat panem coram eo semper cunctis diebus vitae suae
34 And the king of Babylon provided Jehoiachin a daily portion for the rest of his life, until the day of his death.
et cibaria eius cibaria perpetua dabantur ei a rege Babylonis statuta per singulos dies usque ad diem mortis suae cunctis diebus vitae eius
