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.
Era Zedekias da idade de vinte e um anos quando começou a reinar, e reinou onze anos em Jerusalém: e o nome de sua mãe era Hamutal, filha de Jeremias, de Libna.
2 And he did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as Jehoiakim had done.
E fez o que era mal aos olhos do Senhor, conforme tudo o que fizera Joaquim.
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.
Porque sucedeu, por causa da ira do Senhor contra Jerusalém e Judá, até que ele os lançou de diante dele, que se rebelou Zedekias contra o rei de Babilônia.
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.
E aconteceu, no ano nono do seu reinado, no mês décimo, no décimo dia do mes, que veio Nabucodonozor, rei de Babilônia, contra Jerusalém, ele e todo o seu exército, e se acamparam contra ela, e levantaram contra ela tranqueiras ao redor.
5 So the town was shut in by their forces till the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
Assim esteve cercada a cidade, até ao ano undécimo do rei Zedekias.
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.
No mês quarto, aos nove do mes, quando já a fome prevaleceu na cidade, e o povo da terra não tinha pão,
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.
Então a cidade foi arrombada, e todos os homens de guerra fugiram, e sairam da cidade de noite, pelo caminho da porta, entre os dois muros que estavam junto ao jardim do rei (porque os caldeus estavam contra a cidade ao redor), e foram-se pelo caminho da campina.
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.
Porém o exército dos caldeus seguiu o rei, e alcançaram a Zedekias nas campinas de Jericó, e todo o seu exército se espalhou dele.
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.
E prenderam o rei, e o fizeram subir ao rei de Babilônia, a Ribla, na terra de Hamath, o qual pronunciou juízos contra ele.
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 o rei de Babilônia degolou os filhos de Zedekias diante dos seus olhos, e também degolou a todos os príncipes de Judá em Ribla.
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.
E cegou os olhos a Zedekias, e o atou com duas cadeias de bronze; e o rei de Babilônia o levou a Babilônia, e o pôs na casa do cárcere até ao dia da sua morte.
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 no quinto mes, no décimo dia do mês (este era o décimo nono ano do rei Nabucodonozor, rei de Babylonia), veio Nebuzaradan, capitão da guarda, que assistia na presença do rei de Babilônia, a Jerusalém.
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:
E queimou a casa do Senhor, e a casa do rei; e também a todas as casas de Jerusalém, e a todas as casas dos grandes queimou a fogo.
14 And the walls round Jerusalem were broken down by the Chaldaean army which was with the captain.
E todo o exército dos caldeus, que estava com o capitão da guarda, derribou a todos os muros de Jerusalém ao redor.
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.
E dos mais pobres do povo, e o resto do povo, que deixaram ficar na cidade, e os rebeldes que se haviam passado ao rei de Babilônia, e o resto da multidão, Nebuzaradan, capitão da guarda, levou presos.
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.
Mas dos mais pobres da terra deixou Nebuzaradan, capitão da guarda, ficar alguns, para serem vinhateiros e lavradores.
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.
Quebraram mais os caldeus as colunas de bronze, que estavam na casa do Senhor, e as bases, e o mar de bronze, que estavam na casa do Senhor, e levaram todo o bronze para Babilônia.
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.
Também tomaram os caldeirões, e as pás, e os garfos, e as bacias, e os perfumadores, e todos os vasos de bronze, com que se ministrava.
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.
E tomou o capitão da guarda os copos, e os incensários, e as bacias, e os caldeirões e os castiçais, e os perfumadores, e as galhetas: assim o que era de puro ouro em ouro, como o que era de prata maciça em prata.
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.
As duas colunas, o único mar, e os doze bois de bronze, que estavam no lugar das bases, que fizera o rei Salomão para a casa do Senhor: o bronze deles, de todos estes vasos, não tinha peso.
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.
Quanto às colunas, a altura de uma coluna era de dezoito côvados, e um fio de doze côvados a cercava; e era a sua grossura de quatro dedos, e era oca.
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.
E havia sobre ela um capitel de bronze, e a altura do capitel era de cinco côvados, e a rede e as romãs em roda do capitel tudo era de bronze; e semelhante a esta era o da outra coluna, com as romãs.
23 There were ninety-six apples on the outside; the number of apples all round the network was a hundred.
E havia noventa e seis romãs em cada banda: as romãs todas eram um cento, em roda da rede.
24 And the captain of the armed men took Seraiah, the chief priest, and Zephaniah, the second priest, and the three door-keepers;
Tomou também o capitão da guarda a Seraias, o sacerdote primeiro, e a Sofonias, o sacerdote segundo, e aos três guardas do umbral da porta.
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.
E da cidade tomou a um eunuco que tinha cargo da gente de guerra, e a sete homens dos que viam a face do rei, que se acharam na cidade, como também o escrivão-mór do exército, que registrava o povo da terra para a guerra, e a sessenta homens do povo da terra, que se acharam no meio da cidade.
26 These Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, took with him to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
Tomando-os pois Nebuzaradan, capitão da guarda, os trouxe ao rei de Babilônia, a Ribla.
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.
E o rei de Babilônia os feriu e os matou em Ribla, na terra de Hamath: assim Judá foi levado da sua terra em cativeiro.
28 These are the people whom Nebuchadrezzar took away prisoner: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty-three Jews:
Este é o povo que Nabucodonozor levou cativo no sétimo ano: três mil e vinte e três judeus.
29 And in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar he took away as prisoners from Jerusalem eight hundred and thirty-two persons:
No ano décimo oitavo de Nabucodonozor levou ele em cativeiro de Jerusalém oitocentas e trinta e duas almas.
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.
No ano vinte e três de Nabucodonozor, levou Nebuzaradan, capitão da guarda, em cativeiro dos judeus, setecentas e quarenta e cinco almas: todas as almas são quatro mil e seiscentas.
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.
Sucedeu pois no ano trigésimo sétimo do cativeiro de Joaquim, rei de Judá, no mês duodécimo, aos vinte e cinco do mes, que exalçou Evil-merodach, rei de Babilônia, no ano primeiro do seu reinado, a cabeça de Joaquim, rei de Judá, e o tirou da casa da prisão;
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.
E falou com ele benignamente, e pôs o seu trono acima dos tronos dos reis que estavam com ele em Babilônia;
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.
E lhe mudou os vestidos da sua prisão; e comeu pão sempre na sua presença, todos os dias da sua vida.
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.
E, quanto à sua pitança, foi-lhe dada pitança ordenaria do rei de Babilônia, porção quotidiana, no seu dia, até o dia da sua morte, todos os dias da sua vida.
