< Chronicles II 36 >

1 And the people of the land took Joachaz the son of Josias, and anointed him, and made him king over Jerusalem in the room of his father.
Entonces el pueblo de la tierra tomó a Joacaz hijo de Josías, y lo hicieron rey en lugar de su padre en Jerusalén.
2 Joachaz [was] twenty-three years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Amital, daughter of Jeremias of Lobna. And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his fathers had done. And Pharao Nechao bound him in Deblatha in the land of Aemath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem.
De veintitrés años era Joacaz cuando comenzó a reinar, y tres meses reinó en Jerusalén.
3 And the king brought him over to Egypt; and imposed a tribute on the land, a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
Y el rey de Egipto lo quitó de Jerusalén, y condenó la tierra en cien talentos de plata y uno de oro.
4 And Pharao Nechao made Eliakim the son of Josias king over Juda in the room of his father Josias, and changed his name [to] Joakim. And Pharao Nechao took his brother Joachaz and brought him into Egypt, and he died there: but [he] had given the silver and gold to Pharao. At that time the land began to be taxed to give the money at the command of Pharao; and every one as he could borrowed the silver and the gold of the people of the land, to give to Pharao Nechao.
Y constituyó el rey de Egipto a su hermano Eliacim por rey sobre Judá y Jerusalén, y le mudó el nombre en Joacim; y a Joacaz su hermano tomó Necao, y lo llevó a Egipto.
5 Joachim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.
Cuando comenzó a reinar Joacim era de veinticinco años, y reinó once años en Jerusalén: e hizo lo malo en ojos del SEÑOR su Dios.
6 And Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came up against him, and bound him with brazen fetters, and carried him away to Babylon.
Y subió contra él Nabucodonosor rey de Babilonia, y atado con dos cadenas lo llevó a Babilonia.
7 And he carried away a part of the vessels of the house of the Lord to Babylon, and put them in his temple in Babylon.
También llevó Nabucodonosor a Babilonia parte de los vasos de la Casa del SEÑOR, y los puso en su templo en Babilonia.
8 And the rest of the acts of Joakim, and all that he did, behold, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda? And Joakim slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in Ganozae: and Jechonias his son reigned in his stead.
Lo demás de los hechos de Joacim, y las abominaciones que hizo, y lo que en él se halló, he aquí todo está escrito en el libro de los reyes de Israel y de Judá; y reinó en su lugar Joaquín su hijo.
9 Jechonias [was] eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem, and did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.
De ocho años era Joaquín cuando comenzó a reinar, y reinó tres meses y diez días en Jerusalén; e hizo lo malo en ojos del SEÑOR.
10 And at the turn of the year, king Nabuchodonosor sent, and brought him to Babylon, with the precious vessels of the house of the Lord, and made Sedekias his father's brother king over Juda and Jerusalem.
A la vuelta del año el rey Nabucodonosor envió, y lo hizo llevar a Babilonia juntamente con los vasos preciosos de la Casa del SEÑOR; y constituyó a Sedequías su hermano por rey sobre Judá y Jerusalén.
11 Sedekias [was] twenty-one years old when he began to reign, and be reigned eleven years in Jerusalem.
De veintiún años era Sedequías cuando comenzó a reinar, y once años reinó en Jerusalén.
12 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord his God: he was not ashamed before the prophet Jeremias, nor because of the word of the Lord;
E hizo lo malo en ojos de el SEÑOR su Dios, y no se humilló delante de Jeremías profeta, que le hablaba de parte del SEÑOR.
13 in that he rebelled against king Nabuchodonosor, which he adjured him by God [not to do]: but he stiffened his neck, and hardened his heart, so as not to return to the Lord God of Israel.
Se Rebeló asimismo contra Nabucodonosor, al cual había jurado por Dios; y endureció su cerviz, y obstinó su corazón, para no volverse al SEÑOR Dios de Israel.
14 And all the great men of Juda, and the priests, and the people of the land transgressed abundantly in the abominations of the heathen, and polluted the house of the Lord which [was] in Jerusalem.
Y también todos los príncipes de los sacerdotes, y el pueblo, aumentaron la rebelión, rebelándose conforme a todas las abominaciones de los gentiles, y contaminando la Casa del SEÑOR, la cual él había santificado en Jerusalén.
15 And the Lord God of their fathers sent by the hand of his prophets; rising early and sending his messengers, for he spared his people, and his sanctuary.
Y el SEÑOR el Dios de sus padres envió a ellos por mano de sus mensajeros, levantándose de mañana y enviando; porque él tenía misericordia de su pueblo, y de su habitación.
16 Nevertheless they sneered at his messengers, and set at nothing his words, and mocked his prophets, until the wrath of the Lord rose up against his people, till there was no remedy.
Mas ellos hacían escarnio de los mensajeros de Dios, y menospreciaban sus palabras, burlándose de sus profetas, hasta que subió el furor del SEÑOR contra su pueblo, y que no hubo remedio.
17 And he brought against them the king of the Chaldeans, and killed their young men with the sword in the house of his sanctuary, and did not spare Sedekias, and had no mercy upon their virgins, and they led away their old men: he delivered all things into their hands.
Por lo cual trajo contra ellos al rey de los caldeos, que mató a cuchillo sus jóvenes en la Casa de su santuario, sin perdonar joven, ni doncella, ni viejo, ni decrépito; todos los entregó en sus manos.
18 And all the vessels of the house of God, the great and the small, and the treasures of the house of the Lord, and all the treasures of the king and the great men; he brought all to Babylon.
Asimismo todos los vasos de la Casa de Dios, grandes y chicos, los tesoros de la Casa del SEÑOR, y los tesoros del rey y de sus príncipes, todo lo llevó a Babilonia.
19 And he burnt the house of the Lord, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt its palaces with fire, and [utterly destroyed] every beautiful vessel.
Y quemaron la Casa de Dios, y rompieron el muro de Jerusalén, y consumieron al fuego todos sus palacios, y destruyeron todos sus vasos deseables.
20 And he carried away the remnant to Babylon; and they were servants to him and to his sons until [the establishment of] the kingdom of the Medes.
Los que quedaron del cuchillo, los pasaron a Babilonia; y fueron siervos de él y de sus hijos, hasta que vino el reino de los persas;
21 That the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias might be fulfilled, until the land should enjoy its sabbaths in resting [and] sabbath keeping all the days of its desolation, till the accomplishment of seventy years.
para que se cumpliese la palabra del SEÑOR por la boca de Jeremías, hasta que la tierra cumpliese sus sábados; porque todo el tiempo de su asolamiento reposó, hasta que los setenta años fueron cumplidos.
22 In the first year of Cyrus king of the Persians, after the fulfilment of the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of the Persians, and told him to make proclamation in writing throughout all his kingdom, saying,
Mas al primer año de Ciro rey de los persas, para que se cumpliese la palabra del SEÑOR por boca de Jeremías, el SEÑOR despertó el espíritu de Ciro rey de los persas, el cual hizo pasar pregón por todo su reino, y también por escrito, diciendo:
23 Thus says Cyrus king of the Persians to all the kingdoms of the earth, The Lord God of heaven has given me [power], and he has commanded me to build a house to him in Jerusalem, in Judea. Who [is there] of you of all his people? His God shall be with him, and let him go up.
Así dice Ciro rey de los persas: El SEÑOR Dios de los cielos, me ha dado todos los reinos de la tierra; y él me ha encargado que le edifique Casa en Jerusalén, que es en Judá. ¿Quién de vosotros hay de todo su pueblo? El SEÑOR su Dios sea con él, y suba.
