2 Kings 24
1 In his days Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came up, and Joakim became his servant three years: then again he rebelled against him.
Hĩndĩ ya ũthamaki wa Jehoiakimu-rĩ, Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni agĩtharĩkĩra bũrũri, na Jehoiakimu agĩtuĩka ndungata yake mĩaka ĩtatũ. No Jehoiakimu akĩgarũrũka, akĩremera Nebukadinezaru.
2 And the Lord sent against him the rovers of the Chaldees, and the rovers of Syria, and the rovers of Moab, and the rovers of the children of Ammon: and he sent them against Juda, to destroy it, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by his servants the prophets.
Jehova agĩtũma mbũtũ cia gũtahana cia kuuma Babuloni, na Suriata, na Moabi, na Amoni ikahũũrane nake. Agĩcitũma ikaanange Juda, kũringana na ũrĩa kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩatariĩ, kĩrĩa kĩarĩtio nĩ ndungata ciake cia anabii.
3 And this came by the word of the Lord against Juda, to remove them from before him for all the sins of Manasses which he did.
Ti-itherũ maũndũ macio meekĩkire Juda kũringana na watho wa Jehova, nĩguo ameherie moime mbere yake tondũ wa mehia ma Manase na ũrĩa wothe eekĩte,
4 And for the innocent blood that he shed, filling Jerusalem with innocent blood: and therefore the Lord would not be appeased.
o hamwe na gũita thakame ya andũ matehĩtie. Nĩgũkorwo nĩaiyũrĩtie Jerusalemu na thakame ya andũ matehĩtie, nake Jehova ndaigana kũmarekera.
5 But the rest of the acts of Joakim, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda? And Joakim slept with his fathers:
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Jehoiakimu, na marĩa mothe eekire, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa mahinda ma athamaki a Juda?
6 And Joachin his son reigned in his stead.
Jehoiakimu akĩhurũka na maithe make. Nake mũriũ Jehoiakini agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
7 And the king of Egypt came not again any more out of his own country: for the king of Babylon had taken all that had belonged to the king of Egypt, from the river of Egypt, unto the river Euphrates.
Mũthamaki wa Misiri ndaigana kuuma bũrũri wake rĩngĩ, tondũ mũthamaki wa Babuloni nĩatunyanĩte bũrũri wothe ũrĩa warĩ wa mũthamaki wa Misiri kuuma Karũũĩ ka Misiri nginya Rũũĩ rwa Farati.
8 Joachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign, a and he reigned three months in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Nohesta the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
Jehoiakini aarĩ wa mĩaka ikũmi na ĩnana rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake agĩthamaka Jerusalemu mĩeri ĩtatũ. Nyina eetagwo Nehushita mwarĩ wa Elinathani, kuuma Jerusalemu.
9 And he did evil before the Lord, according to all that his father had done.
Nake agĩĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, o ta ũrĩa ithe eekĩte.
10 At that time the servants of Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came up against Jerusalem, and the city was surrounded with their forts.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo anene a Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni magĩũka nginya Jerusalemu, makĩrigiicĩria itũũra rĩu,
11 And Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came to the city with his servants to assault it.
nake Nebukadinezaru we mwene agĩũka nginya itũũra-inĩ rĩu inene, hĩndĩ ĩyo anene ake maarĩrigiicĩirie.
12 And Joachin king of Juda went out to the king of Babylon, he and his mother, and his servants, and his nobles, and his eunuchs: and the king of Babylon received him in the eighth year of his reign.
Nake Jehoiakini mũthamaki wa Juda, na nyina, na ndungata ciake, na andũ arĩa maarĩ igweta, na anene ake othe makĩĩneana kũrĩ Nebukadinezaru. Mwaka-inĩ wa ĩnana wa wathani wa Babuloni nĩguo aanyiitire Jehoiakini.
13 And he brought out from thence all the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king’s house: and he cut in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of the Lord, according to the word of the Lord.
Nebukadinezaru nĩarutire mĩthiithũ yothe kuuma hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova na nyũmba-inĩ ya ũthamaki, agĩkuua indo ciothe cia thahabu iria Solomoni mũthamaki wa Isiraeli aathondekeire hekarũ ya Jehova, o ta ũrĩa Jehova oigĩte.
14 And he carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the valiant men of the army, to the number of ten thousand into captivity: and every artificer and smith: and none were left, but the poor sort of the people of the land.
Agĩkuua andũ othe a Jerusalemu akĩmatwara ithaamĩrio: anene othe, na arũi a mbaara, na mabundi mothe, o na aturi; othe maarĩ andũ 10,000. No andũ arĩa maarĩ athĩĩni mũno a bũrũri ũcio no-o maatigirwo.
15 And he carried away Joachin into Babylon, and the king’s mother, and the king’s wives, and his eunuchs: and the judges of the land he carried into captivity from Jerusalem into Babylon.
Nebukadinezaru agĩtwara Jehoiakini arĩ mũgwate nginya Babuloni. Ningĩ agĩcooka agĩkuua nyina wa mũthamaki kuuma Jerusalemu nginya Babuloni, na atumia ake, na anene ake, o na atongoria ake a bũrũri.
16 And all the strong men, seven thousand, and the artificers, and the smiths a thousand, all that were valiant men and fit for war: and the king of Babylon led them captives into Babylon.
Ningĩ mũthamaki wa Babuloni agĩthaamĩria mbũtũ yothe ya ita nginya Babuloni; ita rĩothe rĩa andũ 7,000 arĩa arũi, na me hinya na mangĩhota kũrũa, na mabundi na aturi 1,000.
17 And he appointed Matthanias his uncle in his stead: and called his name Sedecias.
Agĩcooka agĩtua Matania, mama-we wa Jehoiakini, mũthamaki ithenya rĩake, na akĩgarũra rĩĩtwa rĩake, akĩmũtua Zedekia.
18 Sedecias was one and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Amital, the daughter of Jeremias of Lobna.
Zedekia aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ũmwe rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ikũmi na ũmwe. Nyina eetagwo Hamutali mwarĩ wa Jeremia, na oimĩte Libina.
19 And he did evil before the Lord, according to all that Joakim had done.
Nake agĩĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, o ta ũrĩa Jehoiakimu eekĩte.
20 For the Lord was angry against Jerusalem and against Juda, till he cast them out from his face: and Sedecias revolted from the king of Babylon.
Maũndũ macio mothe meekirwo Jerusalemu na Juda nĩ tondũ wa marakara ma Jehova, na mũthia-inĩ akĩmaingata mehere mbere yake. Nake Zedekia akĩremera mũthamaki wa Babuloni.
