< Jeremiah 52 >

1 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king; he was king for eleven years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
Zedekia ne ja-higni piero ariyo gachiel kane obedo ruoth, kendo nobedo e loch kodak Jerusalem kuom higni apar gachiel. Min mare ne nyinge Hamutal nyar Jeremia ma aa Libna.
2 And he did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as Jehoiakim had done.
Ne otimo richo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, mana kaka Jehoyakim notimo.
3 And because of the wrath of the Lord this came about in Jerusalem and Judah, till he had sent them away from before him: and Zedekiah took up arms against the king of Babylon.
Magi duto notimore ne Jerusalem kod Juda nikech mirimb Jehova Nyasaye, kendo giko to ne oriembogi oko e nyime. Koro Zedekia nongʼanyone ruodh Babulon.
4 And in the ninth year of his rule, on the tenth day of the tenth month, Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, came against Jerusalem with all his army and took up his position before it, building earthworks all round it.
Omiyo e higa mar ochiko mar loch Zedekia, e odiechiengʼ mar apar mar dwe mar apar, Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon nodhi gi jolweny mage duto momonjo Jerusalem. Negilworo dala maduongʼno kendo ne gigoyone agengʼa koni gi koni.
5 So the town was shut in by their forces till the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
Dala maduongʼno ne ogone agengʼa nyaka higa mar apar gachiel mar Ruoth Zedekia.
6 In the fourth month, on the ninth day of the month, the store of food in the town was almost gone, so that there was no food for the people of the land.
E odiechiengʼ mar ochiko e dwe mar angʼwen kech mane ni e dala maduongʼno nomedore makoro ne onge chiemo mane ji nyalo chamo.
7 Then an opening was made in the wall of the town, and all the men of war went in flight out of the town by night through the doorway between the two walls which was by the king's garden; (now the Chaldaeans were stationed round the town: ) and they went by the way of the Arabah.
Bangʼ mano ohinga mar dala maduongʼno nomuki, kendo jolweny duto noringo ka tony gotieno ka gikalo e rangach man e kind ohinga ariyo man but puoth ruoth, kata obedo ni jo-Babulon nolworo dala maduongʼno kamano. Negiringo ka gichomo Araba,
8 And the Chaldaean army went after King Zedekiah and overtook him on the other side of Jericho, and all his army went in flight from him in every direction.
to jolwenj Babulon nolawo Ruoth Zedekia kendo ojuke e pewe mag Jeriko. Jolweny mage duto noringo oweye moke,
9 Then they made the king a prisoner and took him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath to be judged.
kendo negimake. Ne gitere Ribla ir ruodh Babulon e piny Hamath, kama nongʼadone bura.
10 And the king of Babylon put the sons of Zedekiah to death before his eyes: and he put to death all the rulers of Judah in Riblah.
E Ribla ruodh Babulon nonego yawuot Zedekia koneno; bende nonego jotelo duto mag Juda.
11 And he put out Zedekiah's eyes; and the king of Babylon, chaining him in iron bands, took him to Babylon, and put him in prison till the day of his death.
Eka nogolo wenge Zedekia oko, notweye gi rateke mag mula kendo notere Babulon, kama ne okete e od twech nyaka chiengʼ mano thoe.
12 Now in the fifth month, on the tenth day of the month, in the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, a servant of the king of Babylon, came into Jerusalem.
E odiechiengʼ mar apar mar dwe mar abich, e higa mar apar gochiko mar loch Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon, Nebuzaradan jatend jolweny marito ruoth, ma en achiel kuom jodong ruodh Babulon, nobiro Jerusalem.
13 And he had the house of the Lord and the king's house and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house, burned with fire:
Nowangʼo hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, kar dak ruoth kod udi duto man Jerusalem. Bende nowangʼo udi duto moger mabeyo.
14 And the walls round Jerusalem were broken down by the Chaldaean army which was with the captain.
Jolweny duto mag Babulon mane ichiko gi jatend jolweny marito ruoth ne omuko ohinga duto moluoro Jerusalem.
15 Then Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, took away as prisoners the rest of the people who were still in the town, and those who had given themselves up to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the workmen.
Nebuzaradan jatend jolweny notero e twech jomoko kuom joma odhier kod jogo mane odongʼ e dala maduongʼno, kaachiel gi jogo molony e tij lwedo kod joma noringo modhi ir ruodh Babulon mondo otony.
16 But Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, let the poorest of the land go on living there, to take care of the vines and the fields.
To Nebuzaradan noweyo jopinyno moko mane odhier ahinya mondo oti e puothe mag mzabibu kod puothe mamoko.
17 And the brass pillars which were in the house of the Lord, and the wheeled bases and the great brass water-vessel in the house of the Lord, were broken up by the Chaldaeans, who took all the brass away to Babylon.
Jo-Babulon nomuko sirni mag mula, rachungi mag taya kod Karaya Maduongʼ mar mula mane ni e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo ne gitero mulago duto nyaka Babulon.
18 And the pots and the spades and the scissors for the lights and the spoons, and all the brass vessels used in the Lord's house, they took away.
Bende negikawo agulni, opawo, gir ngʼado otambi mar taya, tewni mikwoyogo remo, bakunde kod gik moko duto molos gi mula mane itiyogo e hekalu.
19 And the cups and the fire-trays and the basins and the pots and the supports for the lights and the spoons and the wide basins; the gold of the gold vessels, and the silver of the silver vessels, the captain of the armed men took away.
Jatend jolweny marito ruoth nokawo besen, gima iwangʼoe ubani, tewni mag kwoyo remo, agulni, rachung taya, dise kod bakunde mitiyogo e misango miolo piny, ma gin gik moko duto molos gi dhahabu maler kata fedha.
20 The two pillars, the great water-vessel, and the twelve brass oxen which were under it, and the ten wheeled bases, which King Solomon had made for the house of the Lord: the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
Mula mane ogolo e sirni ariyo, gi Karaya Maduongʼ kod rwedhi apar gariyo mag mula e bwoye kod rachungi minyalo tingʼ mane Ruoth Solomon olosone hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, ne pek ma ok nyal pim.
21 And as for the pillars, one pillar was eighteen cubits high, and twelve cubits measured all round, and it was as thick as a man's hand: it was hollow.
Siro ka siro borne ne romo fut piero ariyo gochiko kendo alwora mare ne romo fut apar gochiko; sirnigo norokore kendo moro ka moro kore ne romo gi lith lwedo angʼwen.
22 And there was a crown of brass on it: the crown was five cubits high, circled with a network and apples all of brass; and the second pillar had the same.
Gima chalo agulu mar mula mane ni e ewi achiel kuom sirni borne kadhi malo ne romo fut aboro kendo nokede gi gik mongʼinore ongʼinore molwore koni gi koni. Siro machielo man-gi gik mongʼinore ongʼinore, ne chal kod mokwongo.
23 There were ninety-six apples on the outside; the number of apples all round the network was a hundred.
Ne nitiere gik mongʼinore ongʼinore piero ochiko gauchiel e bethe sirni, kwan gik mongʼinore ongʼinore duto ne gin mia achiel mane olworo gima otwangʼ mongʼith.
24 And the captain of the armed men took Seraiah, the chief priest, and Zephaniah, the second priest, and the three door-keepers;
Jatend jolweny marito ruoth nomako Seraya jadolo maduongʼ, gi Zefania jadolo maluwe kod ji adek ma jorit dhoot hekalu moterogi e twech.
25 And from the town he took the unsexed servant who was over the men of war, and seven of the king's near friends who were in the town, and the scribe of the captain of the army, who was responsible for getting the people of the land together in military order, and sixty men of the people of the land who were in the town.
To kuom joma ne odongʼ e dala maduongʼno, nomako jatelo mane ochungʼ ne jolweny, kod ji abiriyo ma jongʼad rieko ne ruoth. Bende nomako jagoro mane tichne en ndiko nying joma onego bed jolweny kod jodonge piero auchiel mane oyudi e dala maduongʼno.
26 These Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, took with him to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
Nebuzaradan jatend lweny nomakogi duto mokelogi Ribla ir ruodh Babulon.
27 And the king of Babylon put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was taken prisoner away from his land.
Ruoth nogolo chik mondo neg-gi Ribla kanyo, e piny jo-Hamath. Omiyo Juda noter e twech mabor gi pinye owuon.
28 These are the people whom Nebuchadrezzar took away prisoner: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty-three Jews:
Ma e kwan mar joma Nebukadneza notero e twech: e higa mar abiriyo, mane gin jo-Yahudi alufu adek gi piero adek;
29 And in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar he took away as prisoners from Jerusalem eight hundred and thirty-two persons:
e hik Nebukadneza mar apar gaboro, ji mia aboro gi piero adek gariyo moa Jerusalem;
30 In the twenty-third year of Nebuchadrezzar, Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, took away as prisoners seven hundred and forty-five of the Jews: all the persons were four thousand and six hundred.
e hike mar piero ariyo gadek, jo-Yahudi mia abiriyo gi piero angʼwen gabich mane oter e twech gi Nebuzaradan jatend lweny. Giduto ne gin ji alufu angʼwen mia auchiel.
31 And in the thirty-seventh year after Jehoiachin, king of Judah, had been taken prisoner, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-fifth day of the month, Evil-merodach, king of Babylon, in the first year after he became king, took Jehoiachin, king of Judah, out of prison.
E higa mar piero adek gabiriyo mar twech Jehoyakin ruodh Juda, e higa mane Evil-Merodak obedo ruodh Babulon, nogonyo Jehoyakin ruodh Juda kendo oweye thuolo koa e od twech e odiechiengʼ mar piero ariyo gabich mar dwe mar apar gariyo.
32 And he said kind words to him and put his seat higher than the seats of the other kings who were with him in Babylon.
Nowuoyo kode modembore kendo nomiye kom duongʼ moloyo ruodhi mamoko mane ni kode e twech Babulon.
33 And his prison clothing was changed, and he was a guest at the king's table every day for the rest of his life.
Omiyo Jehoyakin nolonyo lepe mag twech kendo e ndalo ngimane duto ne ochiemo pile pile e mesa ruoth.
34 And for his food, the king gave him a regular amount every day till the day of his death, for the rest of his life.
Odiechiengʼ ka odiechiengʼ ruodh Babulon ne miyo Jehoyakin pok mowinjore kode ndalo duto mag ngimane, nyaka odiechiengʼno mar thone.
