Jeremiah 52
1 Zedekiah was a son of twenty-one years when he first began to reign. And he reigned for eleven years in Jerusalem. And the name of his mother was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah from 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 what was evil in the eyes of the Lord, in accord with all that Jehoiakim had done.
E fez o que era mal aos olhos do Senhor, conforme tudo o que fizera Joaquim.
3 And so the fury of the Lord was toward Jerusalem, and toward Judah, even until he cast them away from his face. And Zedekiah drew away from 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 it happened that, in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, he and his entire army, came against Jerusalem. And they besieged it, and they built fortifications against it, on every side.
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 And the city was besieged, until the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
Assim esteve cercada a cidade, até ao ano undécimo do rei Zedekias.
6 Then, in the fourth month, on the ninth of the month, a famine gripped the city. And there was no nourishment 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 And the city was broken, and all the men of war fled, and they departed from the city at night by way of the gate which is between the two walls, and which leads to the king’s garden, while the Chaldeans were besieging the city all around, and they went away by the road that leads to the wilderness.
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 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king. And they overtook Zedekiah in the desert which is near Jericho. And all of his companions fled away from him.
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 And when they had captured the king, they led him away to the king of Babylon at Riblah, which is in the land of Hamath. And he spoke a judgment against him.
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 cut the throats of the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he also killed all the leaders of Judah at 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 plucked out the eyes of Zedekiah, and he bound him with shackles, and the king of Babylon led him away to Babylon, and he placed him in the prison house, even until 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 Then, in the fifth month, on the tenth of the month, which is the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, arrived. And he was standing before the king of Babylon at 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 set fire to the house of the Lord, and to the house of the king, and to all the houses of Jerusalem. And every great house he 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 entire army of the Chaldeans, who were with the chief of the military, destroyed the entire wall all around Jerusalem.
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 leader of the military, took away some of the poor people, and some of the rest of the common people, who had remained in the city, and some of the fugitives, who had fled over to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.
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 Yet truly, some of the poor of the land, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, left behind as vinedressers and farmers.
Mas dos mais pobres da terra deixou Nebuzaradan, capitão da guarda, ficar alguns, para serem vinhateiros e lavradores.
17 The Chaldeans also broke apart the bronze pillars that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the sea of brass that was in the house of the Lord. And they took all the brass of these things 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 they took the cooking pots, and the hooks, and the psalteries, and the bowls, and the little mortars, and all the bronze vessels that had been used in the ministry.
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 chief of the military took the water pots, and the censers, and the pitchers, and the basins, and the lampstands, and the mortars, and the little cups, whatever was gold, for the gold, and whatever was silver, for the silver,
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 as well as the two pillars, and the one brass sea, and the twelve oxen of brass that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made in the house of the Lord. There was no weight of brass left behind out of all these vessels.
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 Now concerning the pillars, one pillar was eighteen cubits high, and a cord of twelve cubits encircled it. Moreover, its thickness was four fingers, and the interior 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 heads of brass were upon both. And the height of one head was five cubits. And little nets with pomegranates were upon the heads all around, all of brass. The second pillar was similar, and the pomegranates.
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 And there were ninety-six pomegranates hanging down; and there were one hundred pomegranates in all, surrounded by the little nets.
E havia noventa e seis romãs em cada banda: as romãs todas eram um cento, em roda da rede.
24 And the chief of the military took Seraiah, the first priest, and Zephaniah, the second priest, and the three keepers of the vestibule.
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 He also took from the city one eunuch who was in charge of the men of war, and seven men among those who served before the face of the king, who were found in the city, and a scribe, a leader of the military, who tested the new recruits, and sixty men from the people of the land, who were found in the midst of the city.
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 Then Nebuzaradan, the chief of the military, took them, and he led them 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 struck them and put them to death at Riblah, in the land of Hamath. And Judah was carried 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 This is the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away: 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 in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, eight hundred thirty-two souls from Jerusalem;
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 Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuzaradan, the chief of the military, carried away of the Jews seven hundred forty-five souls. Therefore, all the souls were four thousand 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 it happened that, in the thirty-seventh year of the transmigration of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-fifth of the month, Evilmerodach, the king of Babylon, in the very first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, and he brought him out of the prison house.
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 spoke with him for good, and he set his throne above the thrones of the kings who were after 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 he changed his prison garments, and he ate bread in his sight always, all the days 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 meals, a continual provision was allotted to him by the king of Babylon, a measure for every single day, until the day of his death, all the days 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.
