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.
| در دورهٔ سلطنت یهویاقیم، نِبوکَدنِصَّر، پادشاه بابِل به اورشلیم حمله کرد. یهویاقیم تسلیم شد و سه سال به او باج و خراج پرداخت، اما بعد از آن، سر از فرمان وی پیچید و شورش نمود. |
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.
| خداوند لشکر بابِلی، سوری، موآبی و عمونی را فرستاد تا همان‌طور که به‌وسیلۀ انبیا خبر داده بود، یهودا را نابود کنند. |
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;
| بدون شک این بلاها به فرمان خداوند بر یهودا نازل شد. خداوند تصمیم داشت یهودا را به سبب گناهان بی‌شمار مَنَسی طرد کند، |
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.
| زیرا مَنَسی اورشلیم را از خون بی‌گناهان پر کرده بود و خداوند نخواست این گناهان را ببخشد. |
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?
| شرح بقیهٔ رویدادهای دوران سلطنت یهویاقیم و کارهای او در کتاب تاریخ پادشاهان یهودا نوشته شده است. |
6 So Jehoiakim went to rest with his fathers; and Jehoiachin his son became king in his place.
| پس از مرگ یهویاقیم پسرش یهویاکین به جای او بر تخت سلطنت نشست. |
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.
| (پادشاه مصر دیگر از مرزهای خود خارج نشد، زیرا پادشاه بابِل تمام متصرفات مصر را که شامل یهودا هم می‌شد، از نهر مصر تا رود فرات، اشغال نمود.) |
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.
| یهویاکین هجده ساله بود که پادشاه یهودا شد و سه ماه در اورشلیم سلطنت کرد. (مادرش نحوشطا، دختر الناتان و از اهالی اورشلیم بود.) |
9 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his father had done.
| یهویاکین مانند پدرش نسبت به خداوند گناه ورزید. |
10 At that time the armies of Nebuchadnezzar came up to Jerusalem and the town was shut in on every side.
| در دورهٔ سلطنت یهویاکین، لشکر نِبوکَدنِصَّر، پادشاه بابِل، اورشلیم را محاصره کرد. |
11 And Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came there, while his servants were shutting in the town;
| وقتی شهر در محاصره بود، خود نِبوکَدنِصَّر هم به آنجا رسید. |
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.
| یهویاکین و تمام مقامات و فرماندهان و خدمتگزاران دربارش و ملکهٔ مادر تسلیم نِبوکَدنِصَّر شدند. پادشاه بابِل در سال هشتم سلطنت خود، یهویاکین را زندانی کرد. |
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.
| طبق آنچه خداوند فرموده بود، بابِلی‌ها تمام اشیاء قیمتی خانهٔ خداوند، جواهرات کاخ سلطنتی و تمام ظروف طلا را که سلیمان پادشاه برای خانهٔ خداوند ساخته بود، در هم شکستند. |
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.
| نِبوکَدنِصَّر اهالی اورشلیم را که شامل فرماندهان و سربازان، صنعتگران و آهنگران می‌شدند و تعدادشان به ده هزار نفر می‌رسید به بابِل تبعید کرد، و فقط افراد فقیر را در آن سرزمین باقی گذاشت. |
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.
| نِبوکَدنِصَّر، یهویاکین را با مادر و زنان او، فرماندهان و مقامات مملکتی به بابِل برد. |
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.
| همچنین تمام سربازان جنگ آزموده را که هفت هزار نفر بودند و هزار صنعتگر و آهنگر را اسیر کرده، به بابِل برد. |
17 And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah, his father's brother, king in place of Jehoiachin, changing his name to Zedekiah.
| بعد پادشاه بابِل متنیا عموی یهویاکین را به جای او به پادشاهی تعیین نمود و نامش را به صدقیا تغییر داد. |
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.
| صدقیا بیست و یک ساله بود که پادشاه یهودا شد و یازده سال در اورشلیم سلطنت نمود. (مادرش حموطل، دختر ارمیا و از اهالی لبنه بود.) |
19 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as Jehoiakim had done.
| او مانند یهویاقیم نسبت به خداوند گناه ورزید. |
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.
| خشم خداوند بر مردم اورشلیم و یهودا افروخته شد و او ایشان را طرد نمود. |
