< 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.
सिदकियाहले राज्‍य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी एक्‍काइस वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा एघार वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ हमुतल थियो । उनी लिब्नाका यर्मियाकी छोरी थिइन् ।
2 And he did that which was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
परमप्रभुको दृष्‍टिमा जे खराब थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे । यहोयाकीमले गरेका हरेक कुरा तिनले गरे ।
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.
परमप्रभुले आफ्नो सामुबाट तिनीहरूलाई नधपाउनुभएसम्म उहाँको क्रोधद्वारा यी सबै घटना यरूशलेम र यहूदामा घटे । तब सिदकियाह बेबिलोनको विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गरे ।
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.
राजा सिदकियाहको शासनकालको नवौं वर्षको दसौं महिनाको दसौं दिनमा बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसर यरूशलेमको विरुद्धमा आफ्ना सबै सेनासँगै आए । तिनीहरूले यसको सामु छाउनी हाले, र तिनीहरूले यसको चारैतिर घेराबन्दी गरे ।
5 And the city came into the siege, —until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
यसरी राजा सिदकियाहको शासनकालको एघारौं वर्षसम्म सहरलाई घेराबन्दी गरियो ।
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,
चौथो महिनाको नवौं दिनसम्म सहरमा यस्तो घोर अनिकाल पर्‍यो, कि देशका मानिसहरूका लागि कुनै खानेकुरा नै थिएन ।
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.
तब सहरको पर्खाल भत्काइयो, र कल्दीहरू सहरको चारैतिर भए तापनि सहरको पर्खाललाई भत्काएर सबै योद्धा रातमा राजाको बगैंचानेर भएका दुईवटा पर्खालको बिचको ढोकाको बाटो भएर भागे । तिनीहरू अराबाको दिशातिर गए ।
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.
तर कल्दीहरूका सेनाले राजा सिदकियाहलाई खेदे, र यरीहो नजिकैको यर्दन नदीका मैदानहरूमा भेट्टाए । तिनका सबै सेना तिनीबाट तितर-बितर भए ।
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.
तिनीहरूले राजालाई समाते र हमात देशको रिब्लामा बेबिलोनका राजाकहाँ तिनलाई ल्याए जहाँ राजाले तिनलाई दण्डको फैसला सुनाए ।
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;
बेबिलोनका राजाले सिदकियाहका छोराहरूलाई तिनकै आँखाका सामु मारे, र रिब्लामा तिनले यहूदाका सबै अगुवालाई पनि मारे ।
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.
तब तिनले सिदकियाहका आँखा निकाले, तिनलाई काँसाका साङ्लाहरूले बाँधे र बेबिलोनमा ल्याए । तिनको मृत्यु नभएसम्म नै बेबिलोनका राजाले तिनलाई झ्यालखानामा राखे ।
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;
अब बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरको राज्‍य सुरु गरेको उन्‍नाइसौं वर्षको पाँचौं महिनाको दसौं दिनमा नबूजरदान यरूशलेममा आए । तिनी राजाका अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्‍डर अनि बेबिलोनका राजाका सेवक थिए ।
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;
तिनले परमप्रभुको मन्दिर, राजदरबार र यरूशलेमका सबै घर जलाए । अनि सहरमा भएका हरेक महत्त्वपूर्ण भवन तिनले जलाए ।
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.
यरूशलेमको वरिपरि भएका पर्खालहरूका सन्‍दर्भमा, अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्‍डरको अधीनमा रहेका बेबिलोनका सबै सेनाले ती नष्‍ट पारे ।
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.
सबैभन्दा गरिब मानिसहरू, सहरमा बाँकी रहेका मानिसहरू, बेबिलोनका राजाकहाँ भागेर गएकाहरू र बाँकी रहेका कारीगरहरूका विषयमा, अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्‍डर नबूजरदानले तीमध्‍ये कसैलाई निर्वासनमा लगे ।
16 But, others of the poor of the land, did Nebuzaradan chief of the royal executioners leave, for vinedressers and for husbandmen.
तर अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्‍डर नबूजरदानले दाखबारी र खेतहरूमा काम गर्न देशका सबैभन्दा गरिबहरूलाई त्यहीं छोडे ।
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;
परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा राखिएका काँसाका स्तम्भहरू, आधारहरू र काँसाको विशाल खड्कुँलो विषयमा कल्दीहरूले ती टुक्राटुक्रा पारे, र सबै काँसाचाहिं बेबिलोनमा लगे ।
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;
भाँडाहरू, बेल्चाहरू, सलेदाका चिम्टाहरू, चम्चाहरू र मन्दिरमा पुजारीहरूले सेवा गर्दा प्रयोग गरिने काँसाका सबै सामान पनि, कल्दीहरूले तीसबै लगे ।
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.
राजाका अङ्गरक्षकका कमान्‍डरले कञ्‍चन सुन वा चाँदीले बनेका स्‍नान-बाटाहरू, धुपौराहरू, छर्कने बाटाहरू, भाँडाहरू, सामदानहरू, अर्घ-बलिमा चढाइने कचौरा र बाटाहरू पनि लगे ।
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.
सोलोमनले मन्दिरको लागि बनाएका दुईवटा स्तम्भ, विशाल खड्कुँलो भनेर चिनिने काँसाको बाटा, त्‍यसमुनि भएका बाह्रवटा काँसाका साँढे जोख्‍नै नसक्‍ने गरी धेरै काँसा थियो ।
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;
स्तम्भहरू प्रत्‍येकका उचाइ अठार हात थियो, र गोलाइ बाह्र हात थियो । प्रत्येकको मोटाइ चार अङ्गुल चौडा र खोक्रो थियो ।
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.
स्तम्भमाथि एउटा स्तम्भ-शिर थियो । स्तम्भ-शिर पाँच हात अग्लो थियो, र यो काँसाको जाली र दारिमका बुट्टाले चारैतिर भरिएको थियो । अर्को स्तम्भ पनि त्यसका दारिमहरूसहित पहिलेको जस्तै थियो ।
23 And the pomegranates were ninety-six on a side, —all the pomegranates were a hundred upon the lattice-work round about.
स्तम्भ-शिरका छेउ-छेउमा छयानब्‍बेवटा दारिम थिए । चारैतिर जालीलाई घेरिराखेका दारिमहरू जम्‍मा एक सयवटा थिए ।
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;
अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्‍डरले मुख्य पुजारी बन्दी सरायाह, दोस्रो दर्जाका पुजारी सपन्याह र तिन जना द्वारपाललाई लिएर गए ।
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.
तिनले सिपाहीहरूको जिम्मामा भएका अधिकारी, सहरमा अझै बाँकी रहेका राजाका सात जना सल्लाहकारलाई सहरबाट कैद गरेर लगे । तिनले देशका मानिसहरूलाई सेनाम भर्ती गर्ने मुख्य अधिकारी र देशमा भएका अन्य साठी जना विशिष्‍ट मानिसलाई पनि कैद गरेर लगे ।
26 And when Nebuzaradan chief the royal executioners, had taken them, and brought them unto the king of Babylon at Riblah,
तब अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्‍डर नबूजरदानले तिनीहरूलाई रिब्लामा बेबिलोनका राजाकहाँ लगे ।
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.
बेबिलोनका राजाले हमात देशको रिब्लामा तिनीहरूलाई मारे । यसरी यहूदा आफ्नो देशबाट निर्वासनमा लगियो ।
28 This, is the people, whom Nebuchadrezzar carried away captive, —In the seventh year—of them of Judah, three thousand and twenty-three;
नबूकदनेसरले निर्वासनमा लगेका मानिसहरू यी नै थिएः सातौँ वर्षमा ३,०२३ जना यहूदी ।
29 In the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar—out of Jerusalem, eight hundred and thirty-two souls;
नबूकदनेसरको अठारौं वर्षमा तिनले यरूशलेमबाट ८३२ जना मानिसलाई लगे ।
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.
नबूकदनेसरको तेइसौं वर्षमा अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्‍डर नबूजरदानले यहूदाका ७४५ जना मानिसलाई लगे । निर्वासित भएका जम्मा मानिस ४,६०० जना थिए ।
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;
यहूदाका राजा यहोयाकीन निर्वासन भएको सैंतिसौं वर्षको बाह्रौं महिनाको पच्‍चिसौं दिनमा, बेबिलोनका राजा एबील-मरोदकले यहूदाका राजा यहोयाकीनलाई कैदबाट मुक्त गरे । एबील-मरोदकले राज्‍य सुरु गरेको वर्षमा यसो गरियो ।
32 and spake with him comfortable words, —and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon;
राजाले तिनीसित दयापूर्वक बोले, र बेबिलोनमा तिनीसित भएका अन्य राजाहरूलाई भन्दा तिनलाई प्रतिष्ठित स्थान दिए ।
33 so he changed his prison garments, —and used to eat bread before his face continually, all the days of his life.
एबील-मरोदकले यहोयाकीनका कैदका लुगाहरू हटाए, र यहोयाकीनले आफ्नो बाँकी जीवनभर नियमित रूपमा राजाको टेबुलमा खानपान गरे,
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.
र तिनको मृत्यु नभएसम्म नै तिनको बाँकी जीवनभर हरेक दिन तिनलाई नियमित रूपमा खानाको भत्ता दिइयो ।
