2 Chronicles 36
1 And the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and made him king in his father's stead, in Jerusalem.
Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe he kakai ʻoe fonua ʻa Sihoaasi ko e foha ʻo Sosaia, ʻo fakanofo ia ko e tuʻi ko e fetongi ʻo ʻene tamai ʻi Selūsalema.
2 Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem.
Naʻe uofulu taʻu mo e taʻu ʻe tolu ʻae motuʻa ʻo Sihoaasi ʻi heʻene kamata pule, pea naʻe pule ia ʻi he māhina ʻe tolu ʻi Selūsalema.
3 And the king of Egypt put him down at Jerusalem, and imposed a fine upon the land of a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
Pea naʻe liua ia ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite ʻi Selūsalema, ʻo ne pule ke totongi ʻe he fonua ʻaki ʻae taleniti koula ʻe taha.
4 And the king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and changed his name to Jehoiakim. And Necho took Jehoahaz his brother, and carried him to Egypt.
Pea ne fakanofo ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite hono tokoua ke tuʻi ia ki Siuta mo Selūsalema, ʻo ne liua hono hingoa ko Sihoiakimi. Pea naʻe puke ʻe Niko ʻa hono tokoua ko Sihoaasi ʻo fetuku ia ki ʻIsipite.
5 Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem; and he did evil in the sight of Jehovah his God.
Naʻe uofulu taʻu mo e taʻu ʻe nima ʻae motuʻa ʻo Sihoiakimi ʻi heʻene kamata pule, pea naʻe pule ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma taha ʻi Selūsalema: pea naʻe fai kovi ʻe ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko hono ʻOtua.
6 Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and bound him with chains of brass to carry him to Babylon.
Pea naʻe haʻu ke tauʻi ia ʻa Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea naʻa ne haʻi ia ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa haʻi ke fetuku ia ki Papilone.
7 And Nebuchadnezzar carried [part] of the vessels of the house of Jehovah to Babylon, and put them in his temple at Babylon.
Pea naʻe fetuku foki ʻe Nepukanesa ʻae ngaahi ipu ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova ki Papilone, ʻo tuku ia ki hono fale tapu ʻi Papilone.
8 And the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and his abominations which he did, and that which was found in him, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah. And Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.
Pea ko eni ko hono toe ʻoe ngāue ʻa Sihoiakimi, mo ʻene fakalielia naʻa ne fai, mo ia naʻe ʻilo ʻiate ia, vakai, kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi ʻoe ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli mo Siuta: pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe Sihoiakini ko hono foha.
9 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem; and he did evil in the sight of Jehovah.
Naʻe valu taʻu ʻae motuʻa ʻo Sihoiakini ʻi heʻene kamata pule, pea naʻe pule ia ʻi he māhina ʻe tolu mo e ʻaho ʻe hongofulu ʻi Selūsalema: pea naʻe fai kovi ʻe ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
10 And at the turn of the year king Nebuchadnezzar sent and had him brought to Babylon, with the precious vessels of the house of Jehovah; and he made Zedekiah his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem.
Pea ʻi he hili ʻae taʻu, naʻe fekau ʻe he tuʻi ko Nepukanesa, pea naʻe ʻomi ia ki Papilone, fakataha mo e ngaahi ipu matamatalelei ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova, pea naʻe fakanofo ʻa Setikia ko hono tokoua ke ne tuʻi ki Siuta mo Selūsalema.
11 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem.
Naʻe uofulu taʻu mo e taʻu ʻe taha ʻae motuʻa ʻo Setikia ʻi heʻene kamata pule, pea naʻe pule ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma taha ʻi Selūsalema.
12 And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah his God; he humbled not himself before the prophet Jeremiah speaking from the mouth of Jehovah.
Pea naʻe fai ʻe ia ʻae kovi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ko hono ʻOtua, pea naʻe ʻikai te ne fakavaivai ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Selemaia ko e palōfita, naʻe lea mei he fofonga ʻo Sihova.
13 And he also rebelled against king Nebuchadnezzar, who had made him take oath by God; and he stiffened his neck, and hardened his heart from returning to Jehovah the God of Israel.
Pea naʻe angatuʻu ia foki ki he tuʻi ko Nepukanesa, ʻaia naʻa ne fakafuakavaʻi ia ki he ʻOtua: ka naʻa ne fakakekeva hono kia, pea fakafefeka ki hono loto ʻi he taʻefietafoki kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
14 All the chiefs of the priests also, and the people, increased their transgressions, according to all the abominations of the nations; and they defiled the house of Jehovah which he had hallowed in Jerusalem.
Pea naʻe fai hala foki ʻae kau taulaʻeiki lahi kotoa pē, mo e kakai, ʻo fai hala lahi ʻo fakatatau ki he ngaahi angakovi ʻae hiteni: ʻonau fakahalaʻi ʻae fale ʻo Sihova ʻi Selūsalema ʻaia naʻa ne fakatapui.
15 And Jehovah the God of their fathers sent to them by his messengers, rising up early and sending; because he had compassion on his people and on his dwelling-place.
Pea naʻe kouna kiate kinautolu ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻenau ngaahi tamai ʻene kau talafekau, naʻe tuʻu hengihengi hake, pea fekau: ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene angaʻofa ki hono kakai, pea ki hono potu nofoʻanga:
16 But they mocked at the messengers of God, and despised his words, and scoffed at his prophets, until the fury of Jehovah rose against his people, and there was no remedy.
Ka naʻa nau manuki ki he kau talafekau ʻae ʻOtua, pea taʻetokanga ki heʻene ngaahi lea, mo fai kovi ki heʻene kau palōfita, pea naʻe tupu ai ʻae houhau ʻa Sihova ki hono kakai, pea naʻe ʻikai ha fakamoʻui.
17 And he brought up [against] them the king of the Chaldees, and slew their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and spared not young man nor maiden, old man nor him of hoary head: he gave [them] all into his hand.
Ko ia naʻa ne ʻomi ai kiate kinautolu ʻae tuʻi ʻoe kakai Kalitia, ʻaia naʻe tāmateʻi ʻenau kau talavou ʻaki ʻae heletā ʻi he fale ʻo ʻenau fakatahaʻanga, pea naʻe ʻikai ha ʻofa ki ha talavou pe ki ha taʻahine, ʻae tangata motuʻa, pe ko ia ʻoku mapelu ʻi he motuʻa lahi: naʻa ne tuku ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ki hono nima.
18 And all the vessels of the house of God, great and small, and the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and the treasures of the king and of his princes, he brought all to Babylon.
Pea mo e ngaahi ipu kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻae lahi mo e siʻi, mo e ngaahi koloa ʻae fale ʻo Sihova, mo e ngaahi koloa ʻae tuʻi, mo e [koloa ]ʻa hono houʻeiki: pea naʻe ʻomi ia kotoa pē ki Papilone.
19 And they burned the house of God, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, and burned all the palaces thereof with fire, and all the precious vessels thereof were given up to destruction.
Pea naʻa nau tutu ʻae fale ʻoe ʻOtua pea holoki hifo ʻae ʻā maka ʻo Selūsalema, pea naʻe tutu hono ngaahi fale fakaʻeiʻeiki ʻo ia ʻaki ʻae afi, pea maumau ʻae ngaahi nāunau matamatalelei kotoa pē naʻe ʻi ai.
20 And them that had escaped from the sword he carried away to Babylon; and they became servants to him and his sons, until the reign of the kingdom of Persia;
Pea ko kinautolu naʻe hao mei he heletā naʻa ne fetuku ʻakinautolu ki Papilone: ʻaia naʻa nau nofo ai ko e kau tamaioʻeiki kiate ia pea ki hono ngaahi foha ʻo aʻu ki he pule ʻae puleʻanga ʻo Peasia:
21 to fulfil the word of Jehovah by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed its sabbaths. All the days of its desolation it kept sabbath, to fulfil seventy years.
Ke fakamoʻoni ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ʻi he ngutu ʻo Selemaia, “Ke ʻoua ke maʻu fiemālie pe ʻe he fonua hono ngaahi ʻaho tapu: he koeʻuhi ʻi heʻene nofo lala pe naʻa ne maʻu ʻae ʻaho tapu ke fakakakato ʻae taʻu ʻe fitungofulu.”
22 And in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of Jehovah by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, Jehovah stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, and he made a proclamation throughout his kingdom, and also in writing, saying,
Pea ko eni ʻi he ʻuluaki taʻu ʻo Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia, ke fakatonutonu ai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ʻi he ngutu ʻo Selemaia, naʻe langaʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae laumālie ʻo Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia, koeʻuhi ke fanongonongo ʻae fono ʻi hono puleʻanga kotoa pē, pea ke ʻai ia ʻi he tohi foki, ʻo pehē,
23 Thus says Cyrus king of Persia: All the kingdoms of the earth has Jehovah the God of the heavens given to me, and he has charged me to build him a house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whosoever there is among you of all his people, Jehovah his God be with him, and let him go up.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia, “Kuo tuku ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe langi, ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani kiate au: pea kuo ne fekau kiate au ke u langa ʻae fale moʻona ʻi Selūsalema ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Siuta. Ko hai ia ʻiate kimoutolu kotoa pē ʻoku ʻo hono kakai? Ke ʻiate ia ʻa Sihova ko hono ʻOtua, pea tuku ke ʻalu hake ia.”
