Jeremiah 52
1 Twenty-one years old, was Zedekiah when he began to reign, and eleven years, reigned he, in Jerusalem, —and, his mother’s name, was Hamutal, daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
Zedekias var et og tyve Aar gammel, der han blev Konge, og regerede elleve Aar i Jerusalem; og hans Moders Navn var Hamutal, Jeremias's Datter fra Libna.
2 And he did that which was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
Og han havde gjort det, som var ondt for Herrens Øjne, efter alt det, som Jojakim gjorde.
3 For it was, because the anger of Yahweh, had come against Jerusalem and Judah until he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
Men det gik efter Herrens Vrede i Jerusalem og Juda, indtil han forkastede dem for sit Ansigt; og Zedekias faldt fra Kongen af Babel.
4 And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his force, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it, —and he built against it a siege-wall round about.
Og det skete i hans Regerings niende Aar, i den tiende Maaned, paa den tiende Dag i Maaneden, da kom Nebukadnezar, Kongen af Babel, han og al hans Hær, imod Jerusalem, og lejrede sig imod den, og de byggede et Bolværk imod den trindt omkring.
5 And the city came into the siege, —until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
Saa blev. Staden belejret indtil Kong Zedekias's ellevte Aar.
6 In the fourth month on the ninth of the month, when the famine had become severe in the city, —and there had come to be no bread for the people of the land,
I den fjerde Maaned, paa den niende Dag i Maaneden, da fik Hungeren Overhaand i Staden, og der var ikke Brød for Folket i Landet.
7 then was the city broken up, and all the men of war, beginning to flee went forth out of the city by night, by way of the gate between the two walls which was by the garden of the king the Chaldeans being near the city round about), —and they went the way towards the Waste Plain.
Og man brød ind i Staden, og alle Krigsmænd flyede og droge ud af Staden om Natten, ad Vejen igennem Porten imellem de to Mure, hvilken gaar til Kongens Have, medens Kaldæerne laa trindt omkring Staden; og de droge hen ad Vejen til den slette Mark.
8 And the force of the Chaldeans pursued the king, and overtook Zedekiah, in the Waste Plains of Jericho, —and, all his force, was scattered from him.
Men Kaldæernes Hær forfulgte Kongen, og de naaede Zedekias paa den slette Mark ved Jeriko; og hele hans Hær blev adspredt fra ham.
9 So they seized the king, and brought him up, unto the king of Babylon at Riblah, in the land of Hamath, —and he pronounced upon him sentences of judgment.
Og de grebe Kongen og førte ham op til Kongen af Babel, til Ribla i Hamaths Land; og han holdt Ret over ham.
10 And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, —moreover also all the princes of Judah, slew he in Riblah;
Og Kongen af Babel lod Zedekias's Sønner nedhugge for hans Øjne; og han lod ogsaa alle Judas Fyrster nedhugge i Ribla.
11 and the eyes of Zedekiah, put he out, —and bound him with fetters of bronze and the king of Babylon took him to Babylon, and put him in prison—until the day of his death.
Og man blindede Zedekias's Øjne og bandt ham med to Kobberlænker, og Kongen af Babel lod ham føre til Babel og satte ham i Straffehuset indtil hans Dødsdag.
12 And in the fifth month on the tenth of the month, the same, was the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan, chief of the royal executioners, —who stood before the king of Babylon into, Jerusalem;
Og i den femte Maaned, paa den tiende Dag i Maaneden (det Aar var Kong Nebukadnezars, Kongen af Babels, nittende Aar), kom Nebusar-Adan, Øversten for Livvagten, som stod for Kongen af Babels Ansigt, til Jerusalem.
13 and he burned the house of Yahweh and the house of the king, —yea all the houses of Jerusalem even every great man’s house, burned he with fire;
Og han opbrændte Herrens Hus og Kongens Hus og alle Husene i Jerusalem, ja, alle store Huse opbrændte han med Ud.
14 and all the walls of Jerusalem round about, did all the force of the Chaldeans who were with the chief of the royal executioners, break down.
Og hele Kaldæernes Hær, som var med Øversten for Livvagten, nedbrød alle Jerusalems Mure trindt omkring.
15 And some of the poor of the people and the residue of the people who were left in the city, and the disheartened who had fallen away unto the king of Babylon and the residue of the multitude, did Nebuzaradan chief of the royal executioners carry away captive.
Og nogle af de ringeste af Folket og det øvrige Folk, de overblevne i Staden og de frafaldne, som vare gaaede over til Kongen af Babel, og de Haandværksmænd, som vare blevne tilbage, førte Nebusar-Adan, Øversten for Livvagten, bort.
16 But, others of the poor of the land, did Nebuzaradan chief of the royal executioners leave, for vinedressers and for husbandmen.
Og Nebusar-Adan, Øversten for Livvagten, lod nogle af de ringeste i Landet blive tilbage til Vingaardsmænd og til Agerdyrkere.
17 And the pillars of bronze that pertained to the house of Yahweh and the stands and the sea of bronze which was in the house of Yahweh, did the Chaldeans, break in pieces, —and they carried away all the bronze of them to Babylon;
Og Kobberstøtterne, som vare i Herrens Hus, og Stolene og Kobberhavet, som var i Herrens Hus, sønderbrøde Kaldæerne; og de førte alt Kobberet af dem til Babel.
18 and the caldrons and the shovels and the snuffers and the dashing bowls, and the spoons even all the utensils of bronze wherewith ministration used to be made did they take away;
Og Gryderne og Skufferne og Knivene og Skaalerne og Røgelseskaalerne og alle Kobberkarrene, som brugtes til Tjenesten, toge de bort,
19 and the basins and the censers and the dashing bowls and the caldrons and the lamps and the spoons and the cups, which were of gold in gold, and which were of silver in silver, did the chief of the royal executioners, take away.
og Bækkenerne og Ildkarrene og Skaalerne og Gryderne og Lysestagerne og Røgelseskaalerne og Bægerne, hvad som var helt Guld, og hvad som var helt Sølv, tog den øverste for Livvagten.
20 As for the two pillars the one sea, and the twelve oxen of bronze which were under the stands which King Solomon had made for the house of Yahweh, without weight was the bronze of all these things.
De to Støtter, det ene Hav og de tolv Kobberøksne, som vare derunder, samt Stolene, som Kong Salomo havde gjort til Herrens Hus: Der var ikke Vægt paa Kobberet af alle disse Ting.
21 Now as for the pillars, eighteen cubits, was the height of each pillar, and, a line of twelve cubits, compassed it about, —and the thickness thereof was four fingers’ breadth—hollow;
Og hvad Støtterne angaar, da var Højden af een Støtte atten Alen, og en Traad, tolv Alen lang, gik omkring den, og denne var fire Fingre tyk og hul.
22 and there was, a capital, upon it, of bronze, and the height of each capital, was five cubits, with lattice-work and pomegranates upon the capital round about—the whole was of bronze, —and like these, were the second pillar and the pomegranates.
Og Kronen derpaa var af Kobber, og een Krones Højde var fem Alen, og Nettet og Granatæblerne trindt omkring paa Kronen var alt sammen af Kobber, og paa samme Maade var den anden Støtte og Granatæblerne.
23 And the pomegranates were ninety-six on a side, —all the pomegranates were a hundred upon the lattice-work round about.
Og der var seks og halvfemsindstyve Granatæbler efter Vindene; alle Granatæblerne paa Nettet trindt omkring vare hundrede.
24 And the chief of the royal executioners, took away, Seraiah the first priest, and Zephaniah, the second priest, —and the three keepers of the entrance-hall;
Og Øversten for Livvagten tog Ypperstepræsten Seraja, og Zefanja, Præsten af anden Rang, og tre, som toge Vare paa Dørtærskelen.
25 and out of the city, took he one eunuch who was in charge over the men of war and seven men of them who used to watch the face of the king, who were found in the city, and the scribe of the prince of the host, who used to muster the people of the land, —and sixty men of the people of the land, who were found in the midst of the city.
Og af Staden tog han een Hofbetjent, som var Befalingsmand over Krigsmændene, og syv Mænd af dem, som saa Kongens Ansigt, og som fandtes i Staden, og Skriveren, som var hos Stridshøvedsmanden, og som udskrev Folket i Landet, og tresindstyve Mænd af Folket i Landet, som fandtes i Staden.
26 And when Nebuzaradan chief the royal executioners, had taken them, and brought them unto the king of Babylon at Riblah,
Og Nebusar-Adan, den øverste for Livvagten, tog dem og førte dem til Kongen af Babel, til Ribla.
27 then did the king of Babylon smite them and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath, —thus carried he Judah captive away from off their own soil.
Og Kongen af Babel slog dem ihjel og dræbte dem i Ribla, i Hamaths Land; saa blev Juda bortført fra sit Land.
28 This, is the people, whom Nebuchadrezzar carried away captive, —In the seventh year—of them of Judah, three thousand and twenty-three;
Dette er det Folk, som Nebukadnezar bortførte: I det syvende Aar tre Tusinde og tre og tyve af Juda;
29 In the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar—out of Jerusalem, eight hundred and thirty-two souls;
i Nebukadnezars attende Aar: Af Jerusalem otte Hundrede og to og tredive Sjæle;
30 In the three-and-twentieth year of Nebuchadrezzar, Nebuzaradan, chief of the royal executioners took away captive, of them of Judah, seven hundred and forty-five souls: All, the souls, were four thousand and six hundred.
i Nebukadnezars tre og tyvende Aar bortførte Nebusar-Adan, den øverste for Livvagten, af Jøderne syv Hundrede og fem og fyrretyve Sjæle; alle Sjæle vare tilsammen fire Tusinde og seks Hundrede.
31 And it came to pass, in the thirty-seventh year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-fifth of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon, in the year he began to reign, lifted up, the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought him forth out of prison;
Og det skete i det syv og tredivte Aar, efter at Jojakin, Judas Konge, var bortført, i den tolvte Maaned paa den fem og tyvende Dag i Maaneden, da opløftede Evil-Merodak, Kongen af Babel, i det Aar han blev Konge, Jojakins, Judas Konges, Hoved og førte ham ud af Fængselets Hus.
32 and spake with him comfortable words, —and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon;
Og han talte gode Ord med ham, og han satte hans Stol over de Kongers Stole, som vare hos ham i Babel.
33 so he changed his prison garments, —and used to eat bread before his face continually, all the days of his life.
Og han omskiftede sine Fængsels Klæder, og han aad stedse Brød for hans Ansigt i alle sine Livsdage.
34 And his allowance, was a continual allowance given him from the king of Babylon the portion of the day upon its own day, until the day of his death, —all the days of his life.
Og angaaende hans Underholdning, da gaves ham stadig Underholdning af Kongen i Babel, hver Dag, hvad han behøvede for den Dag indtil hans Dødsdag alle hans Livsdage.
