2 Kings 24
1 In his days, Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came up and Jehoiakim was his servant for three years; then he took up arms against him.
Dalam zamannya majulah berperang Nebukadnezar, raja Babel, lalu Yoyakim menjadi takluk kepadanya tiga tahun lamanya; tetapi kemudian Yoyakim berbalik dan memberontak terhadap dia.
2 And the Lord sent against him bands of the Chaldaeans and of the Edomites and of the Moabites and of the children of Ammon; sending them against Judah for its destruction, as he had said by his servants the prophets.
TUHAN menyuruh gerombolan-gerombolan Kasdim, gerombolan-gerombolan Aram, gerombolan-gerombolan Moab dan gerombolan-gerombolan bani Amon melawan Yoyakim; Ia menyuruh mereka melawan Yehuda untuk membinasakannya sesuai dengan firman TUHAN yang diucapkan-Nya dengan perantaraan para hamba-Nya, yaitu para nabi.
3 Only by the word of the Lord did this fate come on Judah, to take them away from before his face; because of the sins of Manasseh and all the evil he did;
Sungguh, hal itu terjadi kepada Yehuda sesuai dengan titah TUHAN untuk menjauhkan mereka dari hadapan-Nya oleh karena dosa-dosa Manasye, setimpal dengan segala yang dilakukannya,
4 And because of the death of those who had done no wrong, for he made Jerusalem full of the blood of the upright; and the Lord had no forgiveness for it.
dan juga oleh karena darah orang yang tidak bersalah yang telah ditumpahkannya, sebab ia telah membuat Yerusalem penuh dengan darah orang yang tidak bersalah, dan TUHAN tidak mau mengampuninya.
5 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?
Selebihnya dari riwayat Yoyakim dan segala yang dilakukannya, bukankah semuanya itu tertulis dalam kitab sejarah raja-raja Yehuda?
6 So Jehoiakim went to rest with his fathers; and Jehoiachin his son became king in his place.
Kemudian Yoyakim mendapat perhentian bersama-sama dengan nenek moyangnya, maka Yoyakhin, anaknya, menjadi raja menggantikan dia.
7 And the king of Egypt did not come out of his land again, for the king of Babylon had taken all his country, from the stream of Egypt to the river Euphrates.
Raja Mesir tidak lagi keluar berperang dari negerinya, sebab raja Babel telah merebut segala yang termasuk wilayah raja Mesir mulai dari sungai Mesir sampai ke sungai Efrat.
8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he became king, he was ruling in Jerusalem for three months, and his mother's name was Nehushta, the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
Yoyakhin berumur delapan belas tahun pada waktu ia menjadi raja dan tiga bulan lamanya ia memerintah di Yerusalem. Nama ibunya ialah Nehusta binti Elnatan, dari Yerusalem.
9 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his father had done.
Ia melakukan apa yang jahat di mata TUHAN tepat seperti yang dilakukan ayahnya.
10 At that time the armies of Nebuchadnezzar came up to Jerusalem and the town was shut in on every side.
Pada waktu itu majulah orang-orang Nebukadnezar, raja Babel, menyerang Yerusalem dan kota itu dikepung.
11 And Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came there, while his servants were shutting in the town;
Juga Nebukadnezar, raja Babel, datang menyerang kota itu, sedang orang-orangnya mengepungnya.
12 Then Jehoiachin, king of Judah, went out to the king of Babylon, with his mother and his servants and his chiefs and his unsexed servants; and in the eighth year of his rule the king of Babylon took him.
Lalu keluarlah Yoyakhin, raja Yehuda, mendapatkan raja Babel, ia sendiri, ibunya, pegawai-pegawainya, para pembesarnya dan pegawai-pegawai istananya. Raja Babel menangkap dia pada tahun yang kedelapan dari pemerintahannya.
13 And he took away all the stored wealth of the Lord's house, and the goods from the king's store-house, cutting up all the gold vessels which Solomon, king of Israel, had made in the house of the Lord, as the Lord had said.
Ia mengeluarkan dari sana segala barang perbendaharaan rumah TUHAN dan barang-barang perbendaharaan istana raja; juga dikeratnya emas dari segala perkakas emas yang dibuat oleh Salomo, raja Israel, di bait TUHAN seperti yang telah difirmankan TUHAN.
14 And he took away all the people of Jerusalem and all the chiefs and all the men of war, ten thousand prisoners; and all the expert workmen and the metal-workers; only the poorest sort of the people of the land were not taken away.
Ia mengangkut seluruh penduduk Yerusalem ke dalam pembuangan, semua panglima dan semua pahlawan yang gagah perkasa, sepuluh ribu orang tawanan, juga semua tukang dan pandai besi; tidak ada yang ditinggalkan kecuali orang-orang lemah dari rakyat negeri.
15 He took Jehoiachin a prisoner to Babylon, with his mother and his wives and his unsexed servants and the great men of the land; he took them all as prisoners from Jerusalem to Babylon.
Ia mengangkut Yoyakhin ke dalam pembuangan ke Babel, juga ibunda raja, isteri-isteri raja, pegawai-pegawai istananya dan orang-orang berkuasa di negeri itu dibawanya sebagai orang buangan dari Yerusalem ke Babel.
16 And all the men of war, seven thousand of them, and a thousand expert workmen and metal-workers, all of them strong and able to take up arms, the king of Babylon took away as prisoners into Babylon.
Semua orang yang gagah perkasa, tujuh ribu orang banyaknya, para tukang dan para pandai besi, seribu orang banyaknya, sekalian pahlawan yang sanggup berperang, dibawa oleh raja Babel sebagai orang buangan ke Babel.
17 And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah, his father's brother, king in place of Jehoiachin, changing his name to Zedekiah.
Kemudian raja Babel mengangkat Matanya, paman Yoyakhin, menjadi raja menggantikan dia dan menukar namanya menjadi Zedekia.
18 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he was king in Jerusalem for eleven years; his mother's name was Hamutal, daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
Zedekia berumur dua puluh satu tahun pada waktu ia menjadi raja dan sebelas tahun lamanya ia memerintah di Yerusalem. Nama ibunya ialah Hamutal binti Yeremia, dari Libna.
19 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as Jehoiakim had done.
Ia melakukan apa yang jahat di mata TUHAN tepat seperti yang dilakukan Yoyakim.
20 And because of the wrath of the Lord, this came about in Jerusalem and Judah, till he had sent them all away from before him: and Zedekiah took up arms against the king of Babylon.
Sebab oleh karena murka Tuhanlah terjadi hal itu terhadap Yerusalem dan Yehuda, yakni bahwa Ia sampai membuang mereka dari hadapan-Nya. Zedekia memberontak terhadap raja Babel.
