2 Kings 24
1 During the reign of Jehoiakim, Nebuchadnezzar, kind of Babylon, invaded the country and Jehoiakim submitted to him. But after three years Jehoiakim rebelled against Nebuchadnezzar.
Nʼoge Jehoiakim na-achị, Nebukadneza eze Babilọn ji ike bata nʼala ya, mee ka Jehoiakim ghọọ ohu ya afọ atọ. Ma o mesịrị tụgharịa megide Nebukadneza, nupukwa isi nʼokpuru ya.
2 Then the Lord sent bands of raiders against Judah to destroy them. They came from Babylonia, Aram, Moab, and Ammon, just as the Lord had said through his servants the prophets.
Onyenwe anyị zigara ndị na-apụnara mmadụ ihe site na Kaldịa, Aram, Moab na ndị Amọn, ka ha ga bibie Juda. Ọ bụ nʼusoro okwu Onyenwe anyị kpọsara site nʼọnụ ndị amụma ya.
3 The Lord spoke against Judah to banish them from his presence because of all the sins that Manasseh had committed, and the innocent people he had killed,
Nʼezie, ihe ndị a bịakwasịrị Juda dịka Onyenwe anyị si nye ya nʼiwu, ka o si otu a kpochapụ ha site nʼihu ya nʼihi mmehie niile Manase mere, na dịka ihe niile o mere si dị,
4 filling Jerusalem with their blood. The Lord was not willing to forgive this.

5 The rest of what happened in Jehoiakim's reign, and all he did, are recorded in the Book of Chronicles of the Kings of Judah.
Akụkọ ọzọ niile gbasara ọchịchị Jehoiakim na ihe niile o mere, e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ ihe e mere nʼụbọchị ndụ ndị eze Juda?
6 Jehoiakim died, and his son Jehoiachin succeeded him as king.
Jehoiakim sooro ndị nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ. Jehoiakin nwa ya ghọrọ eze ọhụrụ nʼọnọdụ ya.
7 The king of Egypt didn't leave his country again for the king of Babylon had taken all the territory that used to belong to him, from the Wadi of Egypt all the way to the Euphrates River.
Ma eze Ijipt esiteghị nʼala ya pụta ọzọ, nʼihi na eze Babilọn nọchiri oke ala ya niile, site na mmiri iyi Ijipt ruo nʼoke Osimiri Yufretis.
8 Jehoiachin was eighteen when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for three months. His mother was Nehushta, daughter of Elnathan. She came from Jerusalem.
Jehoiakin gbara afọ iri na asatọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze. Ọ chịrị naanị ọnwa atọ na Jerusalem. Aha nne ya bụ Nehushta, nwa Elnatan, onye Jerusalem.
9 Jehoiachin did what was evil in the Lord's sight, just as his father had done.
O mere ihe jọrọ njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị, dịka nna ya ha mere.
10 At that time the officers of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon attacked Jerusalem and besieged it.
Nʼoge ọ bụ eze, ndịisi Nebukadneza, eze Babilọn bịara, gbaa Jerusalem gburugburu ma nọchibido obodo ahụ nʼagha.
11 Then Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon came himself while his officers were besieging the city.
Nebukadneza, eze Babilọn nʼonwe ya, bịara nʼobodo ahụ mgbe ndị agha ya gbara ya gburugburu.
12 Jehoiachin, king of Israel, surrendered to the king of Babylon, along with his mother, his officers, his commanders, and his officials. It was in the eighth year of his reign that Nebuchadnezzar captured Jehoiachin.
Jehoiakin, bụ eze Juda, na nne ya na ndị ọrụ ya niile na ndịisi niile na ndịisi ozi ya niile were onwe ha nyefee Nebukadneza nʼaka. Nʼafọ asatọ nke ọchịchị eze Babilọn ka ọ kpụụrụ Jehoiakin dịka onye mkpọrọ.
13 Nebuchadnezzar took all the treasures from the Lord's Temple and the royal palace, and he cut up all the gold items that Solomon, king of Israel, had made for the Lord's Temple, as the Lord had said would happen.
Ọ kwakọọrọ akụ niile dị nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, na ndị nke dị nʼụlọeze, o gbukakwara ihe ọlaedo niile Solomọn eze Izrel tinyere nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị buru ha bulaa Babilọn, ihe a niile mere dịka Onyenwe anyị kwururịị.
14 He deported all of Jerusalem, all the commanders and experienced soldiers, all the craftsmen and metalworkers, a total of ten thousand prisoners. Only the very poor people of the land were left.
O bupụkwara puku ndị ikom iri site na Jerusalem bulaa ha Babilọn dịka ndị a dọtara nʼagha. Ndị so nʼime ndị a bụ ndịisi niile na ndị agha niile. O bupụkwara ndị na-akwa ǹka niile na ndị ọkpụ ụzụ. Naanị ndị na-enweghị ike, na ndị ogbenye ka ọ hapụrụ nʼala ahụ.
15 He took Jehoiachin away into exile to Babylon, as well as the king's mother and the king's wives and his officials and the leading men of the land, he deported them all from Jerusalem to Babylon.
Nebukadneza kpụụrụ Jehoiakin ka ọ ga biri na Babilọn. O sikwa na Jerusalem kpọrọ nne eze, na ndị nwunye eze, ndị ozi ya, na ndị niile a ma ama nʼala ahụ gaa Babilọn.
16 The king of Babylon also deported to Babylon all seven thousand fighting men and one thousand craftsmen and metalworkers, who were all strong and ready for battle.
Eze Babilọn bupụkwara ndị ikom niile dị ike ma tozukwaa ibu agha, ndị ọnụọgụgụ ha dị puku asaa, tinyere otu puku ndị ọrụ aka, na ndị ọrụ ǹka, bulaa ha Babilọn.
17 The king of Babylon made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin's uncle, king instead of him, and changed his name to Zedekiah.
O mere nwanne nna Jehoiakin, bụ Matanaya, eze nʼọnọdụ ya. Ọ gụgharịrị ya aha, kpọọ ya Zedekaya.
18 Zedekiah was twenty-one when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem for eleven years. His mother's name was Hamutal, daughter of Jeremiah She came from Libnah.
Iri afọ abụọ na otu ka Zedekaya gbara mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze nʼime Jerusalem. Aha nne ya bụ Hamutal, nwa Jeremaya onye Libna. Ọ chịrị dịka eze na Jerusalem afọ iri na otu.
19 He did evil in the Lord's sight, just as Jehoiakim had done.
Ma o mere ihe jọrọ njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị dịka Jehoiakim mere.
20 All this happened in Jerusalem and Judah, because of the Lord's anger, until he eventually banished them from his presence. Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
Ọ bụ nʼihi iwe Onyenwe anyị ka ihe ndị a niile ji bịakwasị Jerusalem na Juda. Nʼikpeazụ, o sitere nʼihu ya chụpụ ha. Nʼoge a, Zedekaya nupuru isi nʼokpuru eze Babilọn.
