Jeremiah 52
1 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.
Zeddekiya yali wa myaka amakumi abiri mu gumu egy’obukulu we yafuukira kabaka, n’afugira emyaka kkumi na gumu mu Yerusaalemi. Nnyina yayitibwanga Kamutali muwala wa Yeremiya ow’e Libuna.
2 He did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
Zeddekiya n’akola eby’omuzizo mu maaso ga Mukama, nga Yekoyakimu bwe yali akoze.
3 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.
Abalabe ba Yerusaalemi ne Yuda ne babalumba kubanga Mukama yali abanyiigidde. Ku nkomerero n’abagobamu mu nsi. Ebyo byonna ne bituuka ku Yerusaalemi ne ku Yuda, Mukama n’okubagoba n’abagoba mu maaso ge, ne Zeddekiya n’ajeemera kabaka w’e Babulooni.
4 It happened in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and camped against it; and they built forts against it round about.
Mu mwaka ogw’omwenda ogw’obufuzi bwa Zeddekiya, ku lunaku olw’ekkumi mu mwezi ogw’ekkumi, Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni n’eggye lye lyonna, n’alumba Yerusaalemi, ekibuga ekyo n’akizingiza n’akizimbako ebifunvu okukyetooloola.
5 So the city was besieged to the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
Ekibuga ne bakizimbako ebifunvu okutuusa mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’ogumu ogw’obufuzi bwa kabaka Zeddekiya.
6 In the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was severe in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
Ku lunaku olw’omwenda olw’omwezi ogwokuna enjala n’eba nnyingi nnyo mu kibuga nga tewaali kyakulya.
7 Then a breach was made in the city, 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 by the king's garden; (now the Chaldeans were against the city all around; ) and they went toward the Arabah.
Bbugwe w’ekibuga yamenyebwa Abakaludaaya. Eggye lyonna erya Yerusaalemi ne lidduka okuva mu kibuga kiro nga bayita mu mulyango oguli wakati w’ebisenge ebibiri ebiri okumpi n’ennimiro lwa kabaka, newaakubadde ng’Abakaludaaya baali beetoolodde ekibuga. Badduka ne bagenda mu Alaba.
8 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
Eggye ly’Abakaludaaya ne ligoba kabaka Zeddekiya ne bamukwatira mu nsenyi ez’e Yeriko, Abaserikale be bonna ne bamuvaako ne basaasaana.
9 Then they took the king, and carried him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he gave judgment on him.
N’akwatibwa. Zeddekiya n’atwalibwa eri kabaka w’e Babulooni e Libuna mu nsi ey’e Kamasi; n’amusalira omusango ne gumusinga.
10 The king of Babylon killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes: he killed also all the officials of Judah in Riblah.
Awo kabaka w’e Babulooni n’atta batabani ba Zeddekiya nga kitaabwe alaba; n’atta n’abakungu bonna aba Yuda.
11 He put out the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon bound him in fetters, and carried him to Babylon, and put him in prison until the day of his death.
N’alyoka aggyamu Zeddekiya amaaso n’amusiba mu masamba ag’ebikomo n’amutwala e Babulooni, gye yamuteeka mu kkomera okutuusa lwe yafa.
12 Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, who stood before the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem:
Ku lunaku olw’ekkumi olw’omwezi ogwokutaano, mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi ogw’obufuzi bwa Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni, Nebuzaladaani omuduumizi w’eggye erikuuma kabaka, eyaweerezanga kabaka w’e Babulooni, yajja e Yerusaalemi.
13 and he burned the house of the LORD, and the king's house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house, burned he with fire.
Nebukadduneeza n’ayokya yeekaalu ya Mukama n’olubiri lwa kabaka, n’ennyumba zonna eza Yerusaalemi. Buli kizimbe kyonna eky’omugaso n’akyokya.
14 All the army of the Chaldeans, who were with the captain of the guard, broke down all the walls of Jerusalem all around.
Eggye lya Babulooni lyonna eryali liduumirwa omuduumizi w’abakuumi bakabaka ne limenyera ddala ebisenge bya Yerusaalemi.
15 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the poorest of the people, and the residue of the people who were left in the city, and those who fell away, who fell to the king of Babylon, and the residue of the multitude.
Nebuzaladaani omuduumizi w’abakuumi n’atwala abamu ku baavu ennyo n’abo abaasigala mu kibuga, awamu n’abaweesi n’abaali beewaddeyo, mu buwaŋŋanguse eri kabaka w’e Babulooni.
16 But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poorest of the land to be vineyard keepers and farmers.
Naye Nebuzaladaani n’asigazaayo abamu ku baavu ennyo mu ggwanga okulabiriranga emizabbibu n’okulimanga.
17 The Chaldeans broke the pillars of bronze that were in the house of the LORD, and the bases and the bronze sea that were in the house of the LORD in pieces, and carried all their bronze to Babylon.
Abakaludaaya ne bamenya empagi ez’ebikomo, n’ebikondo ebyali biseetulwa, n’Ennyanja ey’ekikomo, ebyali mu nnyumba ya Mukama ne batwala ekikomo kyonna e Babulooni.
18 They also took away the pots, the shovels, the snuffers, the basins, the spoons, and all the vessels of bronze with which they ministered.
Ne batwala n’entamu, n’ebisena, n’ebisalako ebisirinza, n’ebibya, n’ebijiiko, n’ebintu byonna eby’ekikomo ebyakozesebwanga mu kuweereza mu Yeekaalu.
19 The captain of the guard took away the cups, the fire pans, the basins, the pots, the lampstands, the spoons, and the bowls; that which was of gold, in gold, and that which was of silver, in silver.
Omuduumizi w’abakuumi ba kabaka n’atwala ebensani n’ebibya by’obubaane, n’ebijiiko, n’ebikondo bye ttaala, n’ebibya, n’entamu ebikozesebwa mu kiweebwayo ekyokunywa, byonna ebyali byakolebwa mu zaabu ne ffeeza.
20 They took the two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve bronze bulls that were under the sea, and the stands which king Solomon had made for the house of the LORD. The bronze of all these vessels was without weight.
Ekikomo okuva ku mpagi ebbiri, n’Ennyanja, n’ennume ekkumi n’ebbiri ez’ebikomo wansi waayo, n’ebikondo kabaka Sulemaani bye yali akoledde yeekaalu ya Mukama, byali bizito nnyo ebitapimika.
21 As for the pillars, the height of the one pillar was eight feet seven inches; and a line of twenty feet eight inches encircled it; and its thickness was almost three inches. It was hollow.
Buli emu ku mpagi yali obuwanvu mita munaana ne desimoolo emu; n’obwetoolovu mita ttaano ne desimoolo nnya; n’omubiri gwayo gwali nga sentimita musanvu nga yamuwuluka.
22 A capital of bronze was on it; and the height of the one capital was eight feet seven inches, with network and pomegranates on the capital all around, all of bronze: and the second pillar also had like these, and pomegranates.
Yaliko n’omutwe gw’ekikomo, n’omutwe gumu ng’obuwanvu bwayo nga mita bbiri ne desimoolo ssatu, omutwe nga guliko ebitimbe n’amakomamawanga enjuuyi zonna, byonna nga bya bikomo; empagi eyookubiri nayo yaliko ebifaanana ebyo n’amakomamawanga.
23 There were ninety-six pomegranates on the sides; all the pomegranates were one hundred on the network all around.
Mu buli mbiriizi za buli mpagi kwaliko amakomamawanga kyenda mu mukaaga era gonna awamu okwetooloola empagi gaali amakomamawanga kikumi.
24 The captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief cohen, and Zephaniah the second cohen, and the three keepers of the threshold:
Omuduumizi w’abakuumi n’atwala Seraaya kabona asinga obukulu ne Sefaniya kabona owookubiri n’abaggazi abasatu nga basibe.
25 and out of the city he took an officer who was set over the men of war; and seven men of those who saw the king's face, who were found in the city; and the scribe of the captain of the army, who mustered the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land, who were found in the midst of the city.
Abo abaali bakyali mu kibuga, n’atwalako omukungu akulira eggye, n’abawi b’amagezi omusanvu. N’atwala n’omuwandiisi eyali omukungu omukulu avunaanyizibwa okuwandiika abayingira mu magye ne basajja be nkaaga abaasangibwa mu kibuga.
26 Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
Nebuzaladaani omuduumizi n’abatwala bonna n’abaleeta eri kabaka w’e Babulooni e Libuna.
27 The king of Babylon struck them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his land.
Kabaka n’abattira eyo e Libuna, mu Kamasi. Bw’atyo Yuda n’awaŋŋangusibwa, okuva mu nsi ya boobwe.
28 This is the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away captive: in the seventh year three thousand twenty-three Jews;
Buno bwe bungi bw’abantu Nebukadduneeza be yatwala mu buwaŋŋanguse: mu mwaka ogw’omusanvu ogw’obufuzi bwe: Abayudaaya enkumi ssatu mu amakumi abiri mu basatu;
29 in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar he carried away captive from Jerusalem eight hundred thirty-two persons;
mu mwaka ogw’omunaana ogwa Nebukadduneeza, n’atwala lunaana mu asatu mu babiri okuva e Yerusaalemi;
30 in the three and twentieth year of Nebuchadnezzar Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the Jews seven hundred forty-five persons: all the persons were four thousand and six hundred.
mu mwaka gwe ogw’amakumi abiri mu esatu, Abayudaaya lusanvu mu ana mu bataano be baatwalibwa Nebuzaladaani omuduumizi w’abakuumi wa kabaka. Bonna awamu ne baba abantu enkumi nnya mu lukaaga.
31 It happened in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the five and twentieth day of the month, that Awil-Marduk king of Babylon, in the first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought him forth out of prison;
Awo mu mwaka ogw’amakumi asatu mu omusanvu ogw’okusibibwa kwa Yekoyakini kabaka wa Yuda, mu mwaka Evirumerodaki lwe yafuuka kabaka w’e Babulooni, n’ata Yekoyakini kabaka wa Yuda, n’amuggya mu kkomera ku lunaku olw’amakumi abiri mu etaano olw’omwezi ogw’ekkumi n’ebiri.
32 and he spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon,
N’ayogera naye n’ekisa n’amuwa entebe ey’ekitiibwa eya waggulu okusinga eza bakabaka abalala abaali naye e Babulooni.
33 and changed his prison garments. Jehoiachin ate bread before him continually all the days of his life:
Yekoyakini n’akyusa okuva mu ngoye ez’ekkomera era obulamu bwe obusembayo n’aliranga ku mmeeza ya kabaka.
34 and for his allowance, there was a continual allowance given him by the king of Babylon, every day a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
Era kabaka w’e Babulooni yawanga Yekoyakini ensako eya buli lunaku, obulamu bwe bwonna okutuusa lwe yafa.
