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.
सिदकियाहले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी एक्काइस वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा एघार वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ हमुतल थियो । उनी लिब्नाका यर्मियाकी छोरी थिइन् ।
2 And Zedekiah did evil in the sight of the LORD, just as Jehoiakim had done.
परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे । यहोयाकीमले गरेका हरेक कुरा तिनले गरे ।
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.
परमप्रभुले आफ्नो सामुबाट तिनीहरूलाई नधपाउनुभएसम्म उहाँको क्रोधद्वारा यी सबै घटना यरूशलेम र यहूदामा घटे । तब सिदकियाह बेबिलोनको विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गरे ।
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.
राजा सिदकियाहको शासनकालको नवौं वर्षको दसौं महिनाको दसौं दिनमा बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसर यरूशलेमको विरुद्धमा आफ्ना सबै सेनासँगै आए । तिनीहरूले यसको सामु छाउनी हाले, र तिनीहरूले यसको चारैतिर घेराबन्दी गरे ।
5 And the city was kept under siege until King Zedekiah’s eleventh year.
यसरी राजा सिदकियाहको शासनकालको एघारौं वर्षसम्म सहरलाई घेराबन्दी गरियो ।
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.
चौथो महिनाको नवौं दिनसम्म सहरमा यस्तो घोर अनिकाल पर्यो, कि देशका मानिसहरूका लागि कुनै खानेकुरा नै थिएन ।
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,
तब सहरको पर्खाल भत्काइयो, र कल्दीहरू सहरको चारैतिर भए तापनि सहरको पर्खाललाई भत्काएर सबै योद्धा रातमा राजाको बगैंचानेर भएका दुईवटा पर्खालको बिचको ढोकाको बाटो भएर भागे । तिनीहरू अराबाको दिशातिर गए ।
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.
तर कल्दीहरूका सेनाले राजा सिदकियाहलाई खेदे, र यरीहो नजिकैको यर्दन नदीका मैदानहरूमा भेट्टाए । तिनका सबै सेना तिनीबाट तितर-बितर भए ।
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.
तिनीहरूले राजालाई समाते र हमात देशको रिब्लामा बेबिलोनका राजाकहाँ तिनलाई ल्याए जहाँ राजाले तिनलाई दण्डको फैसला सुनाए ।
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.
बेबिलोनका राजाले सिदकियाहका छोराहरूलाई तिनकै आँखाका सामु मारे, र रिब्लामा तिनले यहूदाका सबै अगुवालाई पनि मारे ।
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.
तब तिनले सिदकियाहका आँखा निकाले, तिनलाई काँसाका साङ्लाहरूले बाँधे र बेबिलोनमा ल्याए । तिनको मृत्यु नभएसम्म नै बेबिलोनका राजाले तिनलाई झ्यालखानामा राखे ।
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.
अब बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरको राज्य सुरु गरेको उन्नाइसौं वर्षको पाँचौं महिनाको दसौं दिनमा नबूजरदान यरूशलेममा आए । तिनी राजाका अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्डर अनि बेबिलोनका राजाका सेवक थिए ।
13 He burned down the house of the LORD, the royal palace, and all the houses of Jerusalem—every significant building.
तिनले परमप्रभुको मन्दिर, राजदरबार र यरूशलेमका सबै घर जलाए । अनि सहरमा भएका हरेक महत्त्वपूर्ण भवन तिनले जलाए ।
14 And the whole army of the Chaldeans under the captain of the guard broke down all the walls around Jerusalem.
यरूशलेमको वरिपरि भएका पर्खालहरूका सन्दर्भमा, अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्डरको अधीनमा रहेका बेबिलोनका सबै सेनाले ती नष्ट पारे ।
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.
सबैभन्दा गरिब मानिसहरू, सहरमा बाँकी रहेका मानिसहरू, बेबिलोनका राजाकहाँ भागेर गएकाहरू र बाँकी रहेका कारीगरहरूका विषयमा, अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्डर नबूजरदानले तीमध्ये कसैलाई निर्वासनमा लगे ।
16 But Nebuzaradan captain of the guard left behind some of the poorest of the land to tend the vineyards and fields.
तर अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्डर नबूजरदानले दाखबारी र खेतहरूमा काम गर्न देशका सबैभन्दा गरिबहरूलाई त्यहीं छोडे ।
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.
परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा राखिएका काँसाका स्तम्भहरू, आधारहरू र काँसाको विशाल खड्कुँलो विषयमा कल्दीहरूले ती टुक्राटुक्रा पारे, र सबै काँसाचाहिं बेबिलोनमा लगे ।
18 They also took away the pots, shovels, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, dishes, and all the articles of bronze used in the temple service.
भाँडाहरू, बेल्चाहरू, सलेदाका चिम्टाहरू, चम्चाहरू र मन्दिरमा पुजारीहरूले सेवा गर्दा प्रयोग गरिने काँसाका सबै सामान पनि, कल्दीहरूले तीसबै लगे ।
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.
राजाका अङ्गरक्षकका कमान्डरले कञ्चन सुन वा चाँदीले बनेका स्नान-बाटाहरू, धुपौराहरू, छर्कने बाटाहरू, भाँडाहरू, सामदानहरू, अर्घ-बलिमा चढाइने कचौरा र बाटाहरू पनि लगे ।
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.
सोलोमनले मन्दिरको लागि बनाएका दुईवटा स्तम्भ, विशाल खड्कुँलो भनेर चिनिने काँसाको बाटा, त्यसमुनि भएका बाह्रवटा काँसाका साँढे जोख्नै नसक्ने गरी धेरै काँसा थियो ।
21 Each pillar was eighteen cubits tall and twelve cubits in circumference; each was hollow, four fingers thick.
स्तम्भहरू प्रत्येकका उचाइ अठार हात थियो, र गोलाइ बाह्र हात थियो । प्रत्येकको मोटाइ चार अङ्गुल चौडा र खोक्रो थियो ।
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.
स्तम्भमाथि एउटा स्तम्भ-शिर थियो । स्तम्भ-शिर पाँच हात अग्लो थियो, र यो काँसाको जाली र दारिमका बुट्टाले चारैतिर भरिएको थियो । अर्को स्तम्भ पनि त्यसका दारिमहरूसहित पहिलेको जस्तै थियो ।
23 Each capital had ninety-six pomegranates on the sides, and a total of a hundred pomegranates were above the surrounding network.
स्तम्भ-शिरका छेउ-छेउमा छयानब्बेवटा दारिम थिए । चारैतिर जालीलाई घेरिराखेका दारिमहरू जम्मा एक सयवटा थिए ।
24 The captain of the guard also took away Seraiah the chief priest, Zephaniah the priest of second rank, and the three doorkeepers.
अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्डरले मुख्य पुजारी बन्दी सरायाह, दोस्रो दर्जाका पुजारी सपन्याह र तिन जना द्वारपाललाई लिएर गए ।
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.
तिनले सिपाहीहरूको जिम्मामा भएका अधिकारी, सहरमा अझै बाँकी रहेका राजाका सात जना सल्लाहकारलाई सहरबाट कैद गरेर लगे । तिनले देशका मानिसहरूलाई सेनाम भर्ती गर्ने मुख्य अधिकारी र देशमा भएका अन्य साठी जना विशिष्ट मानिसलाई पनि कैद गरेर लगे ।
26 Nebuzaradan captain of the guard took them and brought them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
तब अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्डर नबूजरदानले तिनीहरूलाई रिब्लामा बेबिलोनका राजाकहाँ लगे ।
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.
बेबिलोनका राजाले हमात देशको रिब्लामा तिनीहरूलाई मारे । यसरी यहूदा आफ्नो देशबाट निर्वासनमा लगियो ।
28 These are the people Nebuchadnezzar carried away: in the seventh year, 3,023 Jews;
नबूकदनेसरले निर्वासनमा लगेका मानिसहरू यी नै थिएः सातौँ वर्षमा ३,०२३ जना यहूदी ।
29 in Nebuchadnezzar’s eighteenth year, 832 people from Jerusalem;
नबूकदनेसरको अठारौं वर्षमा तिनले यरूशलेमबाट ८३२ जना मानिसलाई लगे ।
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.
नबूकदनेसरको तेइसौं वर्षमा अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्डर नबूजरदानले यहूदाका ७४५ जना मानिसलाई लगे । निर्वासित भएका जम्मा मानिस ४,६०० जना थिए ।
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.
यहूदाका राजा यहोयाकीन निर्वासन भएको सैंतिसौं वर्षको बाह्रौं महिनाको पच्चिसौं दिनमा, बेबिलोनका राजा एबील-मरोदकले यहूदाका राजा यहोयाकीनलाई कैदबाट मुक्त गरे । एबील-मरोदकले राज्य सुरु गरेको वर्षमा यसो गरियो ।
32 And he spoke kindly to Jehoiachin and set his throne above the thrones of the other kings who were with him in Babylon.
राजाले तिनीसित दयापूर्वक बोले, र बेबिलोनमा तिनीसित भएका अन्य राजाहरूलाई भन्दा तिनलाई प्रतिष्ठित स्थान दिए ।
33 So Jehoiachin changed out of his prison clothes, and he dined regularly at the king’s table for the rest of his life.
एबील-मरोदकले यहोयाकीनका कैदका लुगाहरू हटाए, र यहोयाकीनले आफ्नो बाँकी जीवनभर नियमित रूपमा राजाको टेबुलमा खानपान गरे,
34 And the king of Babylon provided Jehoiachin a daily portion for the rest of his life, until the day of his death.
र तिनको मृत्यु नभएसम्म नै तिनको बाँकी जीवनभर हरेक दिन तिनलाई नियमित रूपमा खानाको भत्ता दिइयो ।
