< 2 Chronicles 36 >
1 And the people of the land take Jehoahaz son of Josiah and cause him to reign instead of his father in Jerusalem.
Tsono anthu a mʼdzikomo anatenga Yehowahazi mwana wa Yosiya namuyika kukhala mfumu mu Yerusalemu mʼmalo mwa abambo ake.
2 Jehoahaz [is] a son of twenty-three years in his reigning, and he has reigned three months in Jerusalem,
Yowahazi anali wa zaka 23 pamene anakhala mfumu ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu kwa miyezi itatu.
3 and the king of Egypt turns him aside in Jerusalem, and fines the land one hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold;
Mfumu ya Igupto inamuchotsa pa udindo wa ufumu mu Yerusalemu ndipo inakhometsa msonkho dziko la Yuda wa makilogalamu 3,400 asiliva ndi agolide.
4 and the king of Egypt causes his brother Eliakim to reign over Judah and Jerusalem, and turns his name to Jehoiakim; and Necho has taken his brother Jehoahaz and brings him to Egypt.
Mfumu ya Igupto inakhazika Eliyakimu, mʼbale wake wa Yehowahazi kukhala mfumu ya Yuda ndi Yerusalemu ndipo anasintha dzina la Eliyakimu kukhala Yehoyakimu. Koma Neko anatenga Yowahazi mʼbale wake wa Eliyakimu ndi kupita naye ku Igupto.
5 Jehoiakim [is] a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned eleven years in Jerusalem, and he does evil in the eyes of his God YHWH;
Yehoyakimu anali wa zaka 25 pamene anakhala mfumu, ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu zaka 11. Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wake.
6 Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has come up against him, and binds him in bronze chains to take him away to Babylon.
Nebukadinezara, mfumu ya ku Babuloni anachita naye nkhondo ndipo anamumanga ndi zingwe zamkuwa ndi kumutenga kupita naye ku Babuloni.
7 And Nebuchadnezzar has brought from the vessels of the house of YHWH to Babylon, and puts them in his temple in Babylon.
Nebukadinezara anatenganso zipangizo za ku Nyumba ya Yehova kupita nazo ku Babuloni ndipo anaziyika mʼnyumba ya Mulungu wake kumeneko.
8 And the rest of the matters of Jehoiakim, and his abominations that he has done, and that which is found against him, behold, they are written on the scroll of the kings of Israel and Judah, and his son Jehoiachin reigns in his stead.
Zochitika zina za pa ulamuliro wa Yehoyakimu, zinthu zonyansa zimene anachita ndi zonse zinapezeka kuti zinali zomutsutsa zalembedwa mʼbuku la mafumu a Israeli ndi Yuda. Ndipo Yehoyakini mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
9 Jehoiachin [is] a son of eight years in his reigning, and he has reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem, and he does evil in the eyes of YHWH;
Yehoyakini anali ndi zaka 21 pamene anakhala mfumu ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu kwa miyezi itatu ndi masiku khumi. Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova.
10 and at the turn of the year King Nebuchadnezzar has sent and brings him to Babylon with the desirable vessels of the house of YHWH, and causes his brother Zedekiah to reign over Judah and Jerusalem.
Nthawi ya mphukira, mfumu Nebukadinezara inayitanitsa Yehoyakini ndipo inapita naye ku Babuloni, pamodzi ndi ziwiya zamtengowapatali za mʼNyumba ya Mulungu wa Yehova, ndipo anayika Zedekiya malume wake kukhala mfumu ya Yuda ndi Yerusalemu.
11 Zedekiah [is] a son of twenty-one years in his reigning, and he has reigned eleven years in Jerusalem;
Zedekiya anali ndi zaka 21 pamene ankakhala mfumu, ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu zaka 11.
12 and he does evil in the eyes of his God YHWH, he has not been humbled before Jeremiah the prophet [speaking] from the mouth of YHWH;
Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wake ndipo sanadzichepetse yekha pamaso pa mneneri Yeremiya amene ankayankhula mawu a Yehova.
13 and he has also rebelled against King Nebuchadnezzar who had caused him to swear by God, and he hardens his neck and strengthens his heart against turning back to YHWH, God of Israel.
Iye anawukiranso mfumu Nebukadinezara amene anamulumbiritsa mʼdzina la Mulungu. Iyeyo anali wosamva ndipo anawumitsa mtima wake. Sanatembenukire kwa Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli.
14 Also, all the heads of the priests and the people have multiplied to commit a trespass according to all the abominations of the nations, and they defile the house of YHWH that He has sanctified in Jerusalem.
Kuwonjezera apo, atsogoleri onse a ansembe ndi anthu ena anapitirapitira kukhala osakhulupirika, kutsatira machitidwe onse onyansa a mitundu ina ndi kudetsa Nyumba ya Yehova Mulungu wawo, imene anayipatula mu Yerusalemu.
15 And YHWH, God of their fathers, sends to them by the hand of His messengers—rising early and sending—for He has had pity on His people and on His habitation,
Yehova, Mulungu wa makolo awo, ankatumiza mawu kwa iwo kudzera kwa amithenga ake kawirikawiri, chifukwa ankawamvera chisoni anthu ake ndi malo ake okhalapo.
16 but they are mocking at the messengers of God, and despising His words, and acting deceitfully with His prophets, until the going up of the fury of YHWH against His people—until there is no healing.
Koma iwo ananyoza amithenga a Mulungu, anapeputsa mawu awo ndipo ankaseka aneneri ake mpaka anawutsa mkwiyo wa Yehova pa anthu ake ndipo panalibenso mankhwala owachiritsa.
17 And He causes the king of the Chaldeans to go up against them, and he slays their chosen ones by the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and has had no pity on young man and virgin, old man and very aged—He has given the whole into his hand.
Yehova anabweretsa mfumu ya anthu a ku Babuloni, imene inapha anyamata awo ndi lupanga ku malo opatulika, ndipo sanasiye kaya mnyamata kapena mtsikana, wamkulu kapena wokalamba. Mulungu anapereka onsewo kwa Nebukadinezara.
18 And all the vessels of the house of God, the great and the small, and the treasures of the house of YHWH, and the treasures of the king and of his princes—he has brought the whole to Babylon.
Iye ananyamula kupita nazo ku Babuloni zipangizo zonse za mʼNyumba ya Yehova Mulungu wawo, zazikulu ndi zazingʼono zomwe, ndi chuma cha mʼNyumba ya Yehova ndiponso chuma cha mfumu ndi akuluakulu ake.
19 And they burn the house of God, and break down the wall of Jerusalem, and they have burned all its palaces with fire, and all its desirable vessels—to destruction.
Iwo anayatsa moto Nyumba ya Mulungu, ndipo anagwetsa makoma a Yerusalemu. Anatentha moto nyumba zonse zaufumu ndipo anawononga chilichonse chimene chinali chofunika.
20 And he removes those left of the sword to Babylon, and they are to him and to his sons for servants, until the reigning of the kingdom of Persia,
Iye anagwira ukapolo anthu otsala amene anapulumuka ku lupanga ndi kupita nawo ku Babuloni, ndipo anakhala antchito ake ndi ana ake mpaka pamene ufumu wa Peresiya unakhazikitsidwa.
21 to fulfill the word of YHWH in the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land has enjoyed its Sabbaths; all the days of the desolation it kept Sabbath—to the fullness of seventy years.
Dziko linakondwera ndi masabata ake. Pa nthawi yonse ya chipasuko chake nthaka inapuma, mpaka zaka 70 zinakwana pokwaniritsa mawu a Yehova amene anayankhula kudzera mwa Yeremiya.
22 And in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, at the completion of the word of YHWH in the mouth of Jeremiah, YHWH has awoken the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, and he causes an intimation to pass over into all his kingdom, and also in writing, saying,
Mʼchaka choyamba cha Koresi mfumu ya Peresiya, pofuna kukwaniritsa mawu a Yehova amene anayankhula kudzera mwa Yeremiya, Yehova anakhudza mtima wa mfumu ya Peresiya kuti alengeze mu ufumu wake wonse ndipo anazilemba:
23 “Thus said Cyrus king of Persia: YHWH, God of the heavens, has given all kingdoms of the earth to me, and He has laid a charge on me to build a house for Him in Jerusalem which [is] in Judah; who is among you of all His people? His God YHWH [is] with him, and he goes up!”
Chimene mfumu Koresi ya Peresiya ikunena ndi ichi: “Yehova, Mulungu wakumwamba wandipatsa ine mafumu onse a dziko lapansi ndipo wandisankha kuti ndimumangire Nyumba ya Mulungu ku Yerusalemu ku Yuda. Aliyense wa anthu ake pakati panu, Yehova Mulungu wake akhale naye, ndipo apite.”
