2 Kings 24

1 In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years: then he turned and rebelled against him.

١ فِي أَيَّامِهِ صَعِدَ نَبُوخَذْنَاصَّرُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ، فَكَانَ لَهُ يَهُويَاقِيمُ عَبْدًا ثَلَاثَ سِنِينَ. ثُمَّ عَادَ فَتَمَرَّدَ عَلَيْهِ.

2 The LORD sent against him bands of the Chaldeans, and bands of the Arameans, and bands of the Moabites, and bands of the people of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of the LORD, which he spoke by his servants the prophets.

٢ فَأَرْسَلَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْهِ غُزَاةَ ٱلْكِلْدَانِيِّينَ، وَغُزَاةَ ٱلْأَرَامِيِّينَ، وَغُزَاةَ ٱلْمُوآبِيِّينَ، وَغُزَاةَ بَنِي عَمُّونَ وَأَرْسَلَهُمْ عَلَى يَهُوذَا لِيُبِيدَهَا حَسَبَ كَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ عَنْ يَدِ عَبِيدِهِ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ.

3 Surely at the commandment of the LORD this came on Judah, to remove them out of his sight, for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did,

٣ إِنَّ ذَلِكَ كَانَ حَسَبَ كَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى يَهُوذَا لِيَنْزِعَهُمْ مِنْ أَمَامِهِ لِأَجْلِ خَطَايَا مَنَسَّى حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا عَمِلَ.

4 and also for the innocent blood that he shed; for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood: and the LORD would not pardon.

٤ وَكَذَلِكَ لِأَجْلِ ٱلدَّمِ ٱلْبَرِيءِ ٱلَّذِي سَفَكَهُ، لِأَنَّهُ مَلَأَ أُورُشَلِيمَ دَمًا بَرِيئًا، وَلَمْ يَشَإِ ٱلرَّبُّ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ.

5 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and all that he did, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

٥ وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمُورِ يَهُويَاقِيمَ وَكُلُّ مَا عَمِلَ، أَمَا هِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي سِفْرِ أَخْبَارِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ لِمُلُوكِ يَهُوذَا؟

6 So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers; and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his place.

٦ ثُمَّ ٱضْطَجَعَ يَهُويَاقِيمُ مَعَ آبَائِهِ، وَمَلَكَ يَهُويَاكِينُ ٱبْنُهُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ.

7 The king of Egypt did not come again out of his land any more; for the king of Babylon had taken, from the Wadi of Egypt to the river Perath, all that pertained to the king of Egypt.

٧ وَلَمْ يَعُدْ أَيْضًا مَلِكُ مِصْرَ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ أَرْضِهِ، لِأَنَّ مَلِكَ بَابِلَ أَخَذَ مِنْ نَهْرِ مِصْرَ إِلَى نَهْرِ ٱلْفُرَاتِ كُلَّ مَا كَانَ لِمَلِكِ مِصْرَ.

8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign; and he reigned in Jerusalem three months: and his mother's name was Nehushta the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.

٨ كَانَ يَهُويَاكِينُ ٱبْنَ ثَمَانِي عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً حِينَ مَلَكَ، وَمَلَكَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَشْهُرٍ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَٱسْمُ أُمِّهِ نَحُوشْتَا بِنْتُ أَلِنَاثَانَ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ.

9 He did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father had done.

٩ وَعَمِلَ ٱلشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا عَمِلَ أَبُوهُ.

10 At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up to Jerusalem, and the city was besieged.

١٠ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلزَّمَانِ صَعِدَ عَبِيدُ نَبُوخَذْنَاصَّرَ مَلِكِ بَابِلَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَدَخَلَتِ ٱلْمَدِينَةُ تَحْتَ ٱلْحِصَارِ.

11 Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to the city, while his servants were besieging it;

١١ وَجَاءَ نَبُوخَذْنَاصَّرُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ عَلَى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، وَكَانَ عَبِيدُهُ يُحَاصِرُونَهَا.

12 and Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon, he, and his mother, and his servants, and his officers, and his officers. And the king of Babylon took him in the eighth year of his reign.

١٢ فَخَرَجَ يَهُويَاكِينُ مَلِكُ يَهُوذَا إِلَى مَلِكِ بَابِلَ، هُوَ وَأُمُّهُ وَعَبِيدُهُ وَرُؤَسَاؤُهُ وَخِصْيَانُهُ، وَأَخَذَهُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّامِنَةِ مِنْ مُلْكِهِ.

13 He carried out there all the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold, which Solomon king of Israel had made in the LORD's temple, as the LORD had said.

١٣ وَأَخْرَجَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ جَمِيعَ خَزَائِنِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَخَزَائِنِ بَيْتِ ٱلْمَلِكِ، وَكَسَّرَ كُلَّ آنِيَةِ ٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّتِي عَمِلَهَا سُلَيْمَانُ مَلِكُ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي هَيْكَلِ ٱلرَّبِّ، كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ ٱلرَّبُّ.

14 He carried away all Jerusalem, and all the officials, and all the mighty men of valor, even ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and the smiths; none remained, except the poorest sort of the people of the land.

١٤ وَسَبَى كُلَّ أُورُشَلِيمَ وَكُلَّ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءِ وَجَمِيعَ جَبَابِرَةِ ٱلْبَأْسِ، عَشْرَةَ آلَافِ مَسْبِيٍّ، وَجَمِيعَ ٱلصُّنَّاعِ وَٱلْأَقْيَانِ. لَمْ يَبْقَ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا مَسَاكِينُ شَعْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

15 He carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon; and the king's mother, and the king's wives, and his officers, and the chief men of the land, carried he into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon.

١٥ وَسَبَى يَهُويَاكِينَ إِلَى بَابِلَ. وَأُمَّ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَنِسَاءَ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَخِصْيَانَهُ وَأَقْوِيَاءَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، سَبَاهُمْ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ إِلَى بَابِلَ.

16 All the men of might, even seven thousand, and the craftsmen and the smiths one thousand, all of them strong and apt for war, even them the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon.

١٦ وَجَمِيعُ أَصْحَابِ ٱلْبَأْسِ، سَبْعَةُ آلَافٍ، وَٱلصُّنَّاعُ وَٱلْأَقْيَانُ أَلْفٌ، وَجَمِيعُ ٱلْأَبْطَالِ أَهْلِ ٱلْحَرْبِ، سَبَاهُمْ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ إِلَى بَابِلَ.

17 The king of Babylon made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin's father's brother, king is his place, and changed his name to Zedekiah.

١٧ وَمَلَّكَ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ مَتَّنِيَّا عَمَّهُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ، وَغَيَّرَ ٱسْمَهُ إِلَى صِدْقِيَّا.

18 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.

١٨ كَانَ صِدْقِيَّا ٱبْنَ إِحْدَى وَعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً حِينَ مَلَكَ، وَمَلَكَ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَٱسْمُ أُمِّهِ حَمِّيطَلُ بِنْتُ إِرْمِيَا مِنْ لِبْنَةَ.

19 He did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.

١٩ وَعَمِلَ ٱلشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا عَمِلَ يَهُويَاقِيمُ.

20 For through the anger of the LORD, it happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence. Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.

٢٠ لِأَنَّهُ لِأَجْلِ غَضَبِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ وَعَلَى يَهُوذَا حَتَّى طَرَحَهُمْ مِنْ أَمَامِ وَجْهِهِ، كَانَ أَنَّ صِدْقِيَّا تَمَرَّدَ عَلَى مَلِكِ بَابِلَ.
