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.
in diebus eius ascendit Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis et factus est ei Ioiachim servus tribus annis et rursum rebellavit contra eum
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.
inmisitque ei Dominus latrunculos Chaldeorum et latrunculos Syriae latrunculos Moab et latrunculos filiorum Ammon et inmisit eos in Iudam ut disperderent eum iuxta verbum Domini quod locutus erat per servos suos prophetas
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,
factum est autem hoc per verbum Domini contra Iudam ut auferret eum coram se propter peccata Manasse universa quae fecit
4 filling Jerusalem with their blood. The Lord was not willing to forgive this.
et propter sanguinem innoxium quem effudit et implevit Hierusalem cruore innocentium et ob hanc rem noluit Dominus propitiari
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.
reliqua autem sermonum Ioiachim et universa quae fecit nonne haec scripta sunt in libro sermonum dierum regum Iuda et dormivit Ioiachim cum patribus suis
6 Jehoiakim died, and his son Jehoiachin succeeded him as king.
regnavitque Ioiachin filius eius pro eo
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.
et ultra non addidit rex Aegypti ut egrederetur de terra sua tulerat enim rex Babylonis a rivo Aegypti usque ad fluvium Eufraten omnia quae fuerant regis Aegypti
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.
decem et octo annorum erat Ioiachin cum regnare coepisset et tribus mensibus regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius Naestha filia Helnathan de Hierusalem
9 Jehoiachin did what was evil in the Lord's sight, just as his father had done.
et fecit malum coram Domino iuxta omnia quae fecerat pater eius
10 At that time the officers of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon attacked Jerusalem and besieged it.
in tempore illo ascenderunt servi Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis in Hierusalem et circumdata est urbs munitionibus
11 Then Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon came himself while his officers were besieging the city.
venitque Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis ad civitatem cum servi eius obpugnarent eam
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.
egressusque est Ioiachin rex Iuda ad regem Babylonis ipse et mater eius et servi eius et principes eius et eunuchi eius et suscepit eum rex Babylonis anno octavo regni sui
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.
et protulit inde omnes thesauros domus Domini et thesauros domus regiae et concidit universa vasa aurea quae fecerat Salomon rex Israhel in templo Domini iuxta verbum Domini
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.
et transtulit omnem Hierusalem et universos principes et omnes fortes exercitus decem milia in captivitatem et omnem artificem et clusorem nihilque relictum est exceptis pauperibus populi terrae
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.
transtulit quoque Ioiachin in Babylonem et matrem regis et uxores regis et eunuchos eius et iudices terrae duxit in captivitatem de Hierusalem in Babylonem
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.
et omnes viros robustos septem milia et artifices et clusores mille omnes viros fortes et bellatores duxitque eos rex Babylonis captivos in Babylonem
17 The king of Babylon made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin's uncle, king instead of him, and changed his name to Zedekiah.
et constituit Matthaniam patruum eius pro eo inposuitque nomen ei Sedeciam
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.
vicesimum et primum annum aetatis habebat Sedecias cum regnare coepisset et undecim annis regnavit in Hierusalem nomen matris eius erat Amithal filia Hieremiae de Lobna
19 He did evil in the Lord's sight, just as Jehoiakim had done.
et fecit malum coram Domino iuxta omnia quae fecerat Ioiachim
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.
irascebatur enim Dominus contra Hierusalem et contra Iudam donec proiceret eos a facie sua recessitque Sedecias a rege Babylonis
