< 2 Kings 24 >
1 In days his he came up Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon and he was of him Jehoiakim a subject three years and he turned back and he rebelled against him.
Katika siku za Yehoyakimu, Nebukadreza mfalme wa Babeli akaiteka Yuda; Yehoyakimu akawa mtumishi kwa muda wa miaka mitatu. Kisha Yehoyakimu akarudi na kuasi dhidi ya Nebukadreza.
2 And he sent Yahweh - on him [the] marauding bands of [the] Chaldeans and [the] marauding bands of Aram and - [the] marauding bands of Moab and [the] marauding bands of [the] people of Ammon and he sent them on Judah to destroy it according to [the] word of Yahweh which he had spoken by [the] hand of servants his the prophets.
Yahwe akatuma vikosi vya Wakaldayo dhidi ya Yehoyakimu, Washami, Wamoabu, na Waamoni; akawatuma dhidi ya Yuda kuiharibu. Hii ilikuwa ni kuthibitisha pamoja na neno la Yahwe ambalo aliloliongea kupitia watumishi wake manabii.
3 Surely - on [the] mouth of Yahweh it happened in Judah to remove [it] from on face his for [the] sins of Manasseh according to all that he had done.
Ilikuwa baada ya mda mfupi kwenye kinywa cha Yahwe kwamba hili likaja juu ya Yuda, kuwaondoa usoni mwa uso wake, kwa sabau ya dhambi za Manase, yote aliyoyafanya,
4 And also [the] blood of the innocent which he had shed and he filled Jerusalem blood innocent and not he was willing Yahweh to forgive.
na pia kwa sababu ya damu isiyokuwa na hatia aliyoimwaga, kwa kuijaza Yerusalemu kwa damu isiyokuwa na hatia. Yahwe hakuwa tayari kusamehe hilo.
5 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Jehoiakim and all that he did ¿ not [are] they written on [the] scroll of [the] matters of the days of [the] kings of Judah.
Kama kwa mambo mengine yanayomuhusu Yehoyakimu, na yote aliyoyafanya, je hayajaandikwa kwenye kitabu cha matukio ya wafalme wa Yuda?
6 And he lay down Jehoiakim with ancestors his and he became king Jehoiachin son his in place of him.
Yehoyakimu akalala pamoja na wazee wake, na Yekonia mtoto wake akawa mfalme katika sehemu yake.
7 And not he repeated again [the] king of Egypt to come out from own land his for he had taken [the] king of Babylon from [the] wadi of Egypt to [the] river of Euphrates all that it had belonged to [the] king of Egypt.
Mfalme wa Misri hakushambulia tena nje ya nchi yake, kwa sababu mfalme wa Babeli alakuwa amezishinda nchi zote ambazo zilikuwa zikitawaliwa na mfalme wa Misri, kutoka kwenye kitabu cha Misri mpaka Mto wa Frati.
8 [was] a son of Eight-teen year[s] Jehoiachin when became king he and three months he reigned in Jerusalem and [the] name of mother his [was] Nehushta [the] daughter of Elnathan from Jerusalem.
Yekonia alikuwa na umri wa miaka kumi na nane alipoanza kutawala; alitawala Yerusalemu miezi mitatu. Mama yake alikuwa anaitwa Nehushta; alikuwa binti wa Elnathani wa Yerusalemu.
9 And he did the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh according to all that he had done father his.
Alifanya yaliyo maovu usoni mwa Yahwe; alifanya yale yote ambayo baba yake aliyafanya.
10 At the time that (they went up *Q(K)*) [the] servants of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon Jerusalem and it came the city in state of siege.
Katika kipindi hicho jeshi la Nebukadreza mfalme wa Babeli liliishambulia Yerusalemu na kuuzunguka mji.
11 And he came Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon to the city and servants his [were] laying siege on it.
Nebukadreza mfalme wa Babeli akaja kwenye mji wakati maaskari wake walipokuwa wameuzunguka,
12 And he went out Jehoiachin [the] king of Judah to [the] king of Babylon he and mother his and servants his and officials his and court-officials his and he took him [the] king of Babylon in year eight of reigning his.
na Yekonia mfalme wa Yuda akatoka nje kwenda kwa mfalme wa Babeli, yeye, mama yake, watumishi wake, watoto wake, na maafisa wake. Mfalme wa Babeli akamteka katika mwaka wa nane wa utawala wake.
13 And he brought out from there all [the] treasures of [the] house of Yahweh and [the] treasures of [the] house of the king and he cut up all [the] articles of gold which he had made Solomon [the] king of Israel for [the] temple of Yahweh just as he had spoken Yahweh.
Nebukadreza akachukua kutoka pale vitu vyote vya thamani katika nyumba ya Yahwe, na walio katika nyumba ya kifalme. Akavikata vipande vipande vitu vyote vya dhahabu ambavyo Suleimani mfalme wa Israeli alivitengeneza katika hekalu la Yahwe, kama alivyokuwa amesema ingetokea.
14 And he took into exile all Jerusalem and all the officials and - all [the] mighty [men] of strength (ten *Q(K)*) thousand exile[s] and every craftsman and smith not anyone was left except [the] poor people of [the] people of the land.
Akawachukua wote utumwani Yerusalemu, viongozi wote, na wapiganaji wote, mateka elfu kumi, na mafundi wote, na wafua vyuma. hakuna aliyekuwa amesalia isipokuwa watu maskini katika nchi.
15 And he took into exile Jehoiachin Babylon towards and [the] mother of the king and [the] wives of the king and court-officials his and ([the] leaders of *Q(K)*) the land he led away exile[s] from Jerusalem Babylon towards.
Nebukadreza akamchukua Yekonia utumwani Babeli, pia na mama yake na mfalme, wake, maafisa, na wakuu wa nchi. Akawachukua kwenda utumwani kutoka Yerusalemu mpaka Babeli.
16 And all [the] men of strength seven thousand and the craftsman and the smith one thousand everyone warriors makers of war and he brought them [the] king of Babylon exile[s] Babylon towards.
Wapiganaji wote, elfu saba kwa hesabu, na mafundi elfu moja na wafua vyuma, wote wanaostahili kumpiga- mfalme wa Babeli aliwaleta hawa watu kwenye utumwa Babeli.
17 And he made king [the] king of Babylon Mattaniah uncle his in place of him and he changed name his Zedekiah.
Mfalme wa Babeli akamfanya Matania, kaka yake na baba yake na Yehokimu, mfalme katika sehemu yake, na kubadilisha jina lake kuwa Sedekia.
18 [was] a son of Twenty and one year[s] Zedekiah when became king he and one [plus] ten year[s] he reigned in Jerusalem and [the] name of mother his ([was] Hamutal *Q(K)*) [the] daughter of Jeremiah from Libnah.
Sedekia alikuwa na umri wa miaka ishirini na moja wakati alipoanza kutawala; alitawala miaka kumi na moja katika Yerusalemu. Mama yake alikuwa anaitwa Hamutali; alikuwa binti wa Yeremia kutoka Libna.
19 And he did the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh according to all that he had done Jehoiakim.
Alifanya yaliyo maovu machoni mwa Yahwe; aliyafanya yale yote ambayo Yehokimu aliyoyafanya.
20 For - on [the] anger of Yahweh it happened in Jerusalem and in Judah until threw he them from on face his and he rebelled Zedekiah against [the] king of Babylon.
Kupitia hasira ya Yahwe, haya matukio yote yalitokea Yerusalemu na Yuda, hadi alipowaondoa kwenye uso wake. Kisha Sedekia akaasi dhidi ya mfalme wa Babeli.
