< Jeremiah 52 >

1 One and twenty years was Zedekiah old when he became king, and eleven years did he reign in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Chamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
E rua tekau ma tahi nga tau o Terekia i a ia i kingi ai; a kotahi tekau ma tahi nga tau i kingi ai ia ki Hiruharama: a ko te ingoa o tona whaea ko Hamutara, he tamahine na Heremaia o Ripina.
2 And he did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, in accordance with all that Jehoyakim had done.
A i kino tana mahi ki te titiro a Ihowa, i rite ki nga mea katoa i mea ai a Iehoiakimi.
3 For through the anger of the Lord it came to pass against Jerusalem and Judah, till he had cast them out of his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
Na reira i a Ihowa ka riri nei, ka puta mai te aitua ki Hiruharama, ki a Hura, a maka noatia atu ratou i tona aroaro; a i whakakeke a Terekia ki te kingi o Papurona.
4 And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and they encamped against it, and built against it works of attack round about.
Na i te iwa o nga tau o tona kingitanga, i te tekau o nga marama, i te tekau o nga ra o te marama, ka tae mai a Nepukareha kingi o Papurona, a ia me tana ope katoa ki Hiruharama, a whakapaea ana e ia; a hanga ana e ratou etahi taumaihi a taka noa, hei whawhai atu ki reira.
5 So the city was placed in a state of siege until the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
Heoi ka whakapaea te pa a tae noa ki te tekau ma tahi o nga tau o Kingi Terekia.
6 And in the fourth month, on the ninth day of the month, when the famine was severe in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land:
I te wha o nga marama, i te iwa o nga ra o te marama, ka tino nui te matekai o te pa, na kahore he taro ma nga tangata o te whenua.
7 The city was broken in, and all the men of war fled, and went forth out of the city by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was near the king's garden; [while the Chaldeans were round about the city; ] and they went by the way of the plain.
Katahi ka pakaru te pa, rere ana nga tangata whawhai katoa, puta ana i roto i te pa i te po, na te ara o te kuwaha i waenganui o nga taiepa e rua, na tera i te kari a te kingi, i karapotia hoki te pa e nga Karari; a haere ana ratou na te ara o te Arapa.
8 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and they overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho: and all his army was scattered from him.
Otiia i whaia te kingi e te ope o nga Karari, a hopukia ana a Terekia ki nga mania i Heriko; a i marara noa atu tana ope katoa i tona taha.
9 And they caught the king, and they brought him up unto the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Chamath: and he called him to account.
Na ka mau ratou ki te kingi, a kawea ana ki te kingi o Papurona, ki Ripira i te whenua o Hamata; a whakaputaia ana e ia te whakawa mona.
10 And the king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes: and also all the princes of Judah did he slaughter in Riblah.
Na tukitukia ana e te kingi o Papurona nga tama a Terekia i tana tirohanga: i tukitukia ano e ia nga rangatira katoa o Hura ki Ripira.
11 And the eyes of Zedekiah did he blind; and the king of Babylon bound him with brazen fetters, and carried him to Babylon, and put him in the ward-house till the day of his death.
Na tikarohia ana e ia nga kanohi o Terekia; a herea ana ia e te kingi o Papurona ki te mekameka, kawea ana ki Papurona, maka ana ki te whare herehere, a taea noatia te ra i mate ai ia.
12 And in the fifth month, on the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan, the captain of the guard, [who] served the king of Babylon, unto Jerusalem.
Na i te rima o nga marama, i te tekau o nga ra o te marama, ko te tekau ma iwa hoki ia o nga tau o Kingi Nepukareha kingi o Papurona, ka haere mai a Neputaraarana rangatira o nga kaitiaki, he tangata tu i te aroaro o te kingi o Papurona, ki Hiru harama.
13 And he burnt the house of the Lord, and the king's house: and all the houses of Jerusalem, and all the houses of the great men, did he burn with fire:
Na tahuna ake e ia te whare o Ihowa, me te whare o te kingi; a tahuna ana e ia ki te ahi nga whare katoa o Hiruharama, nga whare katoa hoki o te hunga nunui.
14 And all the walls of Jerusalem round about did all the army of the Chaldeans, that were with the captain of the guard, pull down.
Na ka wawahia e te ope katoa o nga Karari, e ta te rangatira o nga kaitiaki, nga taiepa katoa o Hiruharama a whawhe noa.
15 And certain of the poorest of the people, and the residue of the people that had been left in the city, and the deserters, that had run away to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude, did Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carry away into exile.
Katahi ka whakahekea atu e Neputaraarana rangatira o nga kaitiaki etahi o nga tino rawakore o te iwi, me era atu ano o te iwi i mahue ki te pa, me te iwi i papahoro atu, i taka atu ki te kingi o Papurona, me nga morehu ano o taua huihui.
16 But certain of the poorest of the land did Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard leave for vine-dressers and for husbandmen.
Engari i waiho e Neputaraarana rangatira o nga kaitiaki etahi o nga tino rawakore o te whenua hei kaimahi waina, hei paruaruru.
17 Also the pillars of copper that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the copper sea that was in the house of the Lord, did the Chaldeans break, and they carried off all their copper to Babylon.
Na, ko nga pou parahi i te whare o Ihowa, ko nga turanga me te moana parahi i te whare o Ihowa, wawahia ana e nga Karari, a maua atu ana e ratou te parahi katoa o aua mea ki Papurona.
18 And the pots, and the shovels, and the knives, and the bowls, and the spoons, and all the vessels of copper wherewith they used to perform the service, did they take away.
I maua atu ano e ratou nga pata, nga koko pungarehu, nga kutikuti rama, nga peihana, nga koko, me nga oko parahi katoa mo a ratou mahi tapu.
19 And the basins, and the censers, and the bowls, and the pots, and the candlesticks, and the spoons, and the purifying-tubes: of what was of gold the gold, and of what was of silver the silver, did the captain of the guard take away.
Ko nga kapu, ko nga paepae ngarahu, ko nga peihana, ko nga pata, ko nga turanga rama, ko nga koko, ko nga oko; ko nga mea i hanga ki te koura, he koura, ko nga mea i hanga ki te hiriwa, he hiriwa, i maua katoatia atu e te rangatira o nga kaitiak i.
20 The two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve copper oxen that served instead of the bases, which king Solomon had made for the house of the Lord: the copper of all these vessels could not be weighed.
Na ko nga pou e rua, ko te moana kotahi, ko nga puru parahi kotahi tekau ma rua i raro i nga turanga, i hanga nei e Kingi Horomona mo te whare o Ihowa: kahore he paunatanga o te parahi o enei oko katoa.
21 And as regardeth the pillars, eighteen cubits was the height of each one pillar; and a thread of twelve cubits would compass it; and its thickness was four fingers: it was hollow.
Na ko nga pou, kotahi tekau ma waru whatianga te tiketike o te pou kotahi; tekau ma rua hoki nga whatianga o te aho hei pae mona; na, ko te matotoru, e wha nga ringa: he tuwhera a roto.
22 And a capital was upon it of copper; and the height of the one capital was five cubits, with network and pomegranates upon the capital round about, all of copper. And the like was the case with the second pillar and the pomegranates.
A ko te whakapaipai o runga he parahi; ko te tiketike o te whakapaipai kotahi, e rima nga whatianga, he parahi katoa te mea i whiria me nga pamekaranete i tetahi taha o te whakapaipai, i tetahi taha. Rite tonu hoki ki enei o te rua o nga pou, me nga pamekaranete ano.
23 And the pomegranates were ninety and six on every side: all the pomegranates upon the network were one hundred round about.
Na e iwa tekau ma ono nga pamekaranete o nga taha; a ko nga pamekaranete katoa i te mea i whiria, kotahi te rau, a whawhe noa.
24 And the captain of the guard took Serayah the chief priest, and Zephanyah the priest second in rank, and the three door-keepers;
Na tangohia ana e te rangatira o nga kaitiaki a Heraia, te tino tohunga, me te tohunga tuarua, me Tepania, me nga kaitiaki tokotoru o te kuwaha:
25 And out of the city he took a certain court-officer, who had the supervision of the men of war: and seven men of those that had free access to the kings presence, who were found in the city; and the scribe of the chief of the army, who ordered to the army the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land, that were found in the midst of the city;
I tangohia hoki e ia i roto i te pa tetahi rangatira o nga tangata whawhai, tokowhitu hoki no te aroaro pu ake o te kingi, he hunga i rokohanga ki roto ki te pa; me te kaituhituhi a te rangatira ope, ko ia nei te kaihuihui i nga tangata o te whe nua; e ono tekau hoki nga tangata o te iwi o te whenua, he hunga i rokohanga e ia ki roto ki te pa.
26 And Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and led them away unto the king of Babylon to Riblah.
Na ka mau a Neputaraarana rangatira o nga kaitiaki ki a ratou, kawea ana ki te kingi o Papurona ki Ripira.
27 And the king of Babylon smote them, and put them to death in Riblah in the land of Chamath. Thus Judah was carried away into exile out of his own country.
Na patua iho ratou e te kingi o Papurona, whakamatea iho ki Ripira, ki te whenua o Hamata. Heoi whakahekea atu ana a Hura i tona oneone.
28 This is the people whom Nebuchadrezzar carried away into exile: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty and three Jews;
Ko te hunga tenei i whakaraua atu e Nepukareha: i te whitu o nga tau e toru mano e rua tekau ma toru nga Hurai:
29 In the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar from Jerusalem, eight hundred thirty and two persons;
I te tekau ma waru o nga tau o Nepukareha, e waru rau e toru tekau ma rua nga tangata i whakaraua atu e ia i Hiruharama:
30 In the three and twentieth year of Nebuchadrezzar, did Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carry away into exile of the Jews seven hundred forty and five persons; all the persons were four thousand and six hundred.
I te rua tekau ma toru o nga tau o Nepukareha, e whitu rau e wha tekau ma rima nga tangata o nga Hurai i whakaraua atu e Neputaraarana, e te rangatira o nga kaitiaki: ko aua tangata katoa e wha mano e ono rau.
31 And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the exile of Jehoyachin the king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the five and twentieth day of the month that Evil-merodach the king of Babylon in the [first] year of his reign lifted up the head of Jehoyachin the king of Judah, and brought him forth out of the prison-house;
Na i te toru tekau ma whitu o nga tau o te whakahekenga atu o Iehoiakini kingi o Hura, i te tekau ma rau o nga marama, i te rua tekau ma rima o nga ra o te marama, ka whakaarahia e Ewiri Meroraka kingi o Papurona, i te tau tuatahi i kingi ai ia, te mahunga o Iehoiakini kingi o Hura, whakaputaina ana ia e ia i roto i te whare herehere;
32 And he spoke kindly with him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon,
A korero pai ana ia ki a ia, nekehia ake ana e ia tona torona ki runga ake i te torona o nga kingi i tona taha i Papurona.
33 And he changed his prison-garments: and he ate bread before him continually all the days of his life.
Kakahuria ana e ia he kakahu ke i ona kakahu o te herehere, a kai taro ana ia i tona aroaro i nga ra katoa i ora ai ia.
34 And his allowance was a continual allowance given him by the king, the necessary ration for the day on its day, until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
Na, ko tana kai he kai i homai tonu e te kingi o Papurona mana, he mea mo tenei ra, mo tenei ra, a taea noatia te ra o tona matenga, i nga ra katoa i ora ai ia.
