< Jeremiah 52 >

1 Zedekiah was one and twentie yeere olde when he began to reigne, and he reigned eleuen yeeres in Ierusalem, and his mothers name was Hamutal, the daughter of Ieremiah of Libnah.
Zedekaya gbara iri afọ abụọ na otu mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze. Ọ chịrị dị ka eze na Jerusalem afọ iri na otu. Aha nne ya bụ Hamutal nwa Jeremaya, onye Libna.
2 And he did euil in the eyes of the Lord, according to all that Iehoiakim had done.
O mere ihe jọrọ njọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị dịka Jehoiakim mere.
3 Doubtlesse because the wrath of the Lord was against Ierusalem and Iudah, till he had cast them out from his presence, therefore Zedekiah rebelled against the King of Babel.
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.
4 But in the ninth yeere of his reigne, in the tenth moneth the tenth day of the moneth came Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel, he and all his hoste against Ierusalem, and pitched against it, and buylt fortes against it round about.
Nʼihi ya, nʼafọ nke itoolu, nke ọchịchị Zedekaya, nʼụbọchị nke iri nʼọnwa nke iri, nke afọ ahụ, Nebukadneza, eze Babilọn, duuru usuu ndị agha ya niile bịa ibuso Jerusalem agha. Ha mara ụlọ ikwu ndị agha nʼazụ obodo ahụ, wuokwa mgbidi nnọchibido gburugburu obodo ahụ.
5 So the citie was besieged vnto the eleuenth yeere of the King Zedekiah.
Anọchibidoro obodo a nʼagha ruo nʼafọ nke iri na otu nke ọchịchị eze Zedekaya.
6 Now in the fourth moneth, the ninth day of the moneth, the famine was sore in ye citie, so that there was no more bread for ye people of the land.
Nʼabalị nke itoolu, nke ọnwa anọ nʼafọ ahụ, oke ụnwụ siri ike dị nʼobodo ahụ ruo na ọ dịkwaghị nri dị nke ndị mmadụ ga-eri.
7 Then the citie was broken vp and all the men of warre fled, and went out of the citie by night, by the way of the gate betweene the two walles, which was by the kings garden: (now the Caldeans were by the citie round about) and they went by the way of the wildernes.
Mgbe ahụ, e tipuru oghere nʼaja mgbidi obodo ahụ, ndị agha niile ji abalị gbapụ site nʼọnụ ụzọ ama nke dị nʼetiti mgbidi abụọ nʼakụkụ ubi eze a gbara ogige, nʼagbanyeghị na ndị Babilọn nọ obodo ahụ gburugburu. Ha gbapụrụ chee ihu nʼụzọ Araba.
8 But the army of the Caldeans pursued after the king, and tooke Zedekiah in the desert of Iericho, and all his host was scattered from him.
Ma usuu ndị agha Babilọn chụsoro Zedekaya bụ eze nʼazụ, chụkwute ya na mbara ala Jeriko. Ndị agha ya niile sitere nʼebe ọ nọ gbasasịa, hapụ ya,
9 Then they tooke the king and caryed him vp vnto the king of Babel to Riblah in the lande of Hamath, where he gaue iudgement vpon him.
e jide ya. Ha kpụgara ya eze Babilọn, nʼobodo Ribla, nke dị nʼala Hamat, ebe a nọ maa ya ikpe.
10 And the king of Babel slewe the sonnes of Zedekiah, before his eyes he slew also al ye princes of Iudah in Riblah.
Na Ribla ka eze Babilọn nọ gbuo ụmụ ndị ikom Zedekaya niile, nʼihu ya, o gbukwara ndịisi ọchịchị Juda niile.
11 Then he put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and the king of Babel bound him in chaines, and caried him to Babel, and put him in pryson till the day of his death.
Ọ ghụpụrụ anya Zedekaya abụọ, jiri ụdọ bronz kee ya agbụ, kpụrụ ya gaa Babilọn, ebe o tinyere ya nʼụlọ mkpọrọ tutu ruo ụbọchị ọnwụ ya.
12 Now in the fift moneth in the tenth day of the moneth (which was the nineteenth yere of ye King Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel) came Nebuzar-adan chiefe steward which stoode before the king of Babel in Ierusalem,
Nʼụbọchị nke iri, nʼọnwa nke ise, nke afọ iri na itoolu, nke ọchịchị Nebukadneza eze Babilọn, Nebuzaradan ọchịagha ndị nche eze, onye na-ejere eze Babilọn ozi, bịarutere Jerusalem.
13 And burnt the House of the Lord, and the Kings house, and all the houses of Ierusalem, and all the great houses burnt he with fire.
O sunyere ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị ọkụ, ụlọeze na ụlọ niile dị na Jerusalem, ụlọ ọbụla bụ nke dị mkpa ka o surere ọkụ.
14 And al the armie of the Caldeans that were with the chiefe steward, brake downe all ye walles of Ierusalem round about.
Usuu ndị agha Kaldịa niile bụ ndị nọ nʼokpuru onyeisi ndị nche eze ahụ, kwaturu mgbidi ahụ niile gbara Jerusalem gburugburu.
15 Then Nebuzar-adan the chiefe steward caried away captiue certaine of the poore of the people, and the residue of the people that remayned in the citie, and those that were fled, and fallen to the king of Babel, with the rest of the multitude.
Nebuzaradan, ọchịagha ndị nche eze, buru ụfọdụ nʼime ndị dakarịsịrị nʼogbenye na ndị fọdụrụ nʼime obodo ahụ, ha na ndị ǹka niile fọdụrụ, na ndị ahụ ji aka ha gbakwuru eze Babilọn, bulaa ha Babilọn, ka ha ga biri nʼala ọzọ.
16 But Nebuzar-adan the chiefe steward left certaine of the poore of the lande, to dresse the vines, and to till the land.
Ma Nebuzaradan, hapụrụ ndị ahụ bụ nnọọ ndị ogbenye ọnụ ntụ, ka ha na-elekọta ubi vaịnị niile a gbara ogige na ala ubi niile.
17 Also the pillars of brasse that were in the House of the Lord, and the bases, and the brasen Sea, that was in the house of ye Lord, the Caldeans brake, and caried all the brasse of them to Babel.
Ma ndị Babilọn tipịara ogidi bronz niile, ha na ihe ndọkwasị niile na Oke osimiri bronz ndị ahụ dị nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị, buru bronz ahụ niile bulaa Babilọn.
18 The pots also and the besomes, and the instruments of musicke, and the basins, and the incense dishes, and all the vessels of brasse wherewith they ministred, tooke they away.
Ha chịkọọrọ ite niile, na shọvel niile na ihe ịkpakepụ ọkụ niile, na efere ịkwọsa mmiri niile, na ngaji ukwu niile, na ihe bronz niile, bụ nke e ji eje ozi nʼime ụlọnsọ ahụ.
19 And the bowles, and the ashpannes, and the basins, and the pots, and the candlestickes, and the incense dishes, and the cuppes, and all that was of golde, and that was of siluer, tooke the chiefe steward away,
Ọchịagha ndị nche eze ahụ sikwa nʼụlọnsọ ahụ chịrị ihe ndị a: efere ukwu niile, ihe ịgụnye ọkụ niile, efere ịkwọsa mmiri niile, ite niile, ihe ịdọkwasị oriọna niile, ngaji ukwu niile na iko e ji enye onyinye ihe ọṅụṅụ, ya bụ ihe ndị ahụ niile e ji ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha maọbụ ọlaọcha kpụọ.
20 With the two pillars, one Sea, and twelue brasen bulles, that were vnder the bases, which King Salomon had made in ye house of ye Lord: the brasse of all these vessels was without weight.
O burukwara bronz sitere nʼogidi abụọ ahụ, oke Osimiri ahụ na ehi iri na abụọ e ji bronz kpụọ, bụ nke dị nʼokpuru ya, na ihe ndọkwasị ya niile, nke eze bụ Solomọn mere nʼihi ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị. Ha karịrị ihe a ga-eji ihe ọtụtụ tụọ.
21 And concerning the pillars, the height of one pillar was eighteene cubites, and a threede of twelue cubites did compasse it, and the thicknesse thereof was foure fingers: it was holowe.
Ị dị elu nke otu nʼime ogidi abụọ ndị a bụ mita asatọ na ụma nʼọtụtụ. Ị dị gburugburu ya bụkwa mita ise na ụma anọ, nke ọbụla nʼime ha bụ mkpịsịaka anọ. Oghere dịkwa nʼime ha.
22 And a chapiter of brasse was vpon it, and the height of one chapiter was fiue cubites with networke, and pomegranates vpon the chapiters round about, all of brasse: the seconde pillar also, and the pomegranates were like vnto these.
Isi bronz nke e kpụkwasịrị nʼotu ogidi dị mita abụọ na ụma atọ nʼịdị elu. Ọ bụkwa ihe yiri mkpụrụ pomegranet e ji bronz kpaa, ka e ji chọọ ya mma gburugburu ya niile. Ogidi nke abụọ nwekwara pomegranet, yiri ibe ya.
23 And there were ninetie and sixe pomegranates on a side: and all the pomegranates vpon the net worke were an hundreth round about.
Pomegranet ndị ahụ dị iri itoolu na isii, ọ bụkwa nʼakụkụ ọbụla ka ọ dị. Ọnụọgụgụ pomegranet niile dị nʼelu ihe ahụ a kpụrụ akpụ dị otu narị.
24 And the chiefe steward tooke Sheraiah the chiefe Priest, and Zephaniah the seconde Priest, and the three keepers of the doore.
Ọchịagha ndị nche eze ahụ, kpụụrụ Seraya, onyeisi nchụaja, na Zefanaya, bụ onye nchụaja na-esote ya nʼọkwa, na ndị nche atọ na-eche ọnụ ụzọ mbata dịka ndị mkpọrọ.
25 Hee tooke also out of the citie an Eunuch, which had the ouersight of the men of warre, and seuen men that were in the Kings presence, which were founde in the citie, and Sopher captayne of the hoste who mustered the people of the lande, and threescore men of the people of the land, that were found in the middes of the citie.
O sitere nʼetiti ndị ahụ fọdụrụ nʼobodo kpụụrụ otu onyeisi na-ahụ maka ndị agha, na ndị ikom asaa na-enye eze ndụmọdụ. O kpukwaara ode akwụkwọ, onye isi ọrụ na-ahụ maka ịmanye ndị ga-aga agha, jidekwa iri ndị ikom isii bụ ndị a hụrụ nʼime obodo ahụ.
26 Nebuzar-adan the chiefe stewarde tooke them, and brought them to the king of Babel to Riblah.
Nebuzaradan, bụ ọchịagha kpụụrụ ha niile, dute ha nʼihu eze Babilọn na Ribla.
27 And the king of Babel smote them, and slewe them in Riblah, in the lande of Hamath: thus Iudah was caried away captiue out of his owne land.
Nʼebe ahụ na Ribla, dị nʼobodo Hamat, ka eze nọ nye iwu ka e gbuo ha niile. Ya mere, a dọọrọ Juda nʼagha, mee ka ọ ga biri nʼala ọzọ.
28 This is the people, whome Nebuchad-nezzar caried away captiue, in the seuenth yeere, euen three thousande Iewes, and three and twentie.
Nke a bụ ọnụọgụgụ ndị ahụ Nebukadneza mere ka ha gaa biri nʼala ọzọ. Nʼafọ nke asaa nke ọchịchị ya, puku atọ ndị Juu na iri abụọ na atọ, 3,023.
29 In the eightenth yere of Nebuchad-nezzar he caried away captiue from Ierusalem eight hundreth thirtie and two persons.
Nʼafọ nke iri na asatọ nke ọchịchị Nebukadneza, ka o mere ka narị mmadụ asatọ na iri atọ na abụọ, 832 si na Jerusalem gaa biri nʼala ọzọ.
30 In the three and twentieth yeere of Nebuchad-nezzar, Nebuzar-adan the chiefe stewarde caried away captiue of the Iewes seuen hundreth fourtie and fiue persons: all the persons were foure thousand and sixe hundreth.
Nʼafọ nke iri abụọ na atọ, Nebuzaradan, onyeisi ndị nche alaeze Babilọn bulara ndị dị narị ndị Juu asaa na iri anọ na ise, 745 ka ha ga biri nʼala ọzọ. Ọnụọgụgụ ha niile dị puku anọ na narị isii, 4,600.
31 And in the seuen and thirtieth yeere of the captiuitie of Iehoiachin King of Iudah, in the twelfth moneth, in the fiue and twentieth day of the moneth, Euil-merodach King of Babel, in the first yeere of his reigne, lifted vp the head of Iehoiachin King of Iudah, and brought him out of pryson,
Nʼafọ nke iri atọ na asaa, site na mgbe e mere ka Jehoiakin eze Juda gaa biri nʼala ọzọ, nʼafọ Awel-Maduk ghọrọ eze Babilọn. Mgbe ahụ, o mere ka Jehoiakin eze Juda, si nʼụlọ mkpọrọ pụta, nwere onwe ya. O mere nke a nʼụbọchị iri abụọ na ise nke ọnwa iri na abụọ.
32 And spake kindly vnto him, and set his throne aboue the throne of the Kings, that were with him in Babel,
Ọ gwara ya okwu ọma, nyekwa ya ọnọdụ ugwu dị elu karịa ọnọdụ ndị eze ndị ọzọ niile ha na ya nọ na Babilọn.
33 And changed his pryson garmentes, and he did continually eate bread before him all the dayes of his life.
Nʼihi nke a, Jehoiakin gbanwere uwe mkpọrọ ya, wezuga ya. Sitekwa nʼoge ahụ tutu ruo mgbe ọ nwụrụ, ya na eze na-erikọ nri.
34 His porcion was a continuall portion giuen him of ye king of Babel, euery day a certaine, all the dayes of his life vntill he died.
Site nʼụbọchị ruo nʼụbọchị, eze Babilọn na-enye Jehoiakin oke ihe ruru ya kwa ụbọchị niile nke ọ dị ndụ, ruokwa nʼụbọchị ọnwụ ya.
