< Jeremiah 52 >

1 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became the King [of Judah]. He ruled in Jerusalem for eleven years. His mother was Hamutal, the daughter of [a man named] Jeremiah from Libnah [town].
Hagi Zedekaia'a 21ni'a kafu nehuno kinia fore huno Jerusalemi kumate mani'neno, 11ni'a kafufi Juda mopa kegava hu'ne. Hagi nerera'a Libna kumateti ne' ru Jeremaia mofakino, agi'a Hamutali'e. (2 King 24:18-25:7 Jeremaia 39:1-10)
2 Zedekiah did [many] things that Yahweh says are evil, like [his father] Jehoiakim had done.
Hagi Jehoiakimi'ma hu'neaza huno Ra Anumzamofo avurera Zedekaia'a kefo avu'avaza hu'ne.
3 [The events that are summarized here happened] because Yahweh was angry with [the people of] Jerusalem and [of other places in] Judah, and finally he (exiled them/forced them to go to other countries) [and said that he did not want to have anything to do with] them any more. Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
Hagi Jerusalemi kumapima nemaniza vahe'mo'zane, Juda vahe'mo'zanema haza havi zamavu'zmava zamo higeno, Ra Anumzamofona arimpa ahegeno Agri avure'ma mani'naretira zamahe kasopetrege'za ru moparega umani'naze. Hagi Zedekaia'a Babiloni kini ne'mofo kea antahino amagera onte'neanki ha' arente'ne.
4 [So, ] on January 15, when Zedekiah had been ruling for almost nine years, King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon led his entire army to attack Jerusalem. They surrounded the city and built dirt ramps up to the top of the city walls [to enable them to attack the city].
Hagi Zedekaia'ma kinima mani'no egeno 9nima hia kafufina, 10ni ikamofona 10ni zupa, Babiloni kini ne' Nebukatnesa'a sondia vahe'aramine eno Jerusalemi kumara ha'hunte'naku eme avazagi kagine'za, manine'zama ha'ma hanaza zana, kuma keginamofo tva'ontera megi'a mopa kate'za ante hihi hu'za mareri'naze.
5 They continued to surround Jerusalem until Zedekiah had been ruling for almost eleven years.
Hagi Babiloni vahe'mo'za atre'za ovu'za Jerusalemi kumara vazagi kagiza mani'nageno vuno, Zedekaia'ma kinima manino vigeno, 11nima hia kafure uhanati'ne.
6 When Zedekiah had been ruling for almost eleven years, by July 18 of that year, the (famine/lack of food) in the city had become very severe, and there was no [more] food for the people [to eat].
Hagi ana kafufina 4 ikamofona 9ni zupa, Jerusalemi rankumapina tusi agatontoza fore higeno, vahe'mo'zama ne'zama ne'saza zana omanetfa hu'ne.
7 Then [the soldiers of Babylonia] broke through [a section of] the city wall, and all the [Israeli] soldiers fled. But because the city was surrounded by soldiers from Babylonia, [Zedekiah and the Israeli] soldiers [waited until] it became dark. Then they left the city through the gate between the two walls behind the king’s garden. Then they ran towards the Jordan River Valley.
Hagi e'i ana knazupa Babiloni sondia vahe'mo'za Jerusalemi rankumapina ufrenaku kuma kegina tapage hu'naze. Hianagi ana'ma nehu'za avazagi kagi'nazama'agu Zedekaia'ene sondia vahe'amo'zanena kenage kumara atre'za, kini ne'mofo hozama me'neregama tare kazigati'ma kuma keginamoke'ma eme renagema ante'nateti atirami'za fre'za, Araba kaziga vu'naze.
8 But the soldiers of Babylonia pursued King Zedekiah, and they caught up with him on the plains near Jericho. [He was alone because] all his men had deserted him and had scattered.
Hianagi Babiloni sondia vahe'mo'za kini ne' Zedekaiana rotago hu'za vu'za Jeriko agupofi ome azeri'naze. Ana hazage'za maka Zedekaia sondia vahe'mo'za agrira atre'za panani hu'za ufre efre hu'naze.
9 The soldiers of Babylonia took him to the king of Babylon, who was at Riblah in the Hamath [region]. There the king of Babylon told [his soldiers what] they should do to punish Zedekiah.
Hagi Zedekaina azerite'za, Babiloni kini ne'ma mani'nerega Hamati mopafi Ribla kumate avre'za vazageno, keagafi azeri otiteno agrama hu'nea avu'ava zantera, e'inahu knaza erigahane huno hunte'ne.
10 They forced Zedekiah to watch while they killed his sons and all the officials from Judah.
Hagi Ribla kumate Zedekaia mani'neno negegeno agri avufi, Babiloni kini ne'mo'a ne' mofavre naga'a zamahe nefrino, Juda kva vahetaminena ana maka zamahe fri vagare'ne.
11 [Then] they gouged out Zedekiah’s eyes. They fastened him with bronze chains and took him to Babylon. They put him in a prison, and he remained there until the day that he died.
Hagi ana'ma huteno'a anante Zedekaiana tare avuraga reragati atreteno, bronsireti tro hu'naza seninofiteti kina renteteno avreno Babiloni vuno ome kina huntegeno mani'neno anampi fri'ne. (2 Kin 25:8-17)
12 On August 17 of that year, which was when King Nebuchadnezzar had been ruling for almost 19 years, Nebuzaradan, who was the captain of the king’s bodyguards and one of the king’s officials, arrived in Jerusalem.
Hagi Babiloni kini ne' Nebukatnesama kinima manino egeno 19nima hia kafufina 5fu ikamofo 10ni zupa, Nebukatnesa avate'ma kvama nehaza sondia vahete'ma ugotama hu'nea kva ne' Nebusaradani'a Jerusalemi kumatera e'ne.
13 He [commanded his soldiers to] burn down the temple of Yahweh, the king’s palace, and all the houses in Jerusalem. They [also] destroyed all the important buildings [in the city].
Ana'ma huteno'a agra Ra Anumzamofo mono nona teve taginenteno, kini ne'mofo nonena teve taginenteno, Jerusalemi kumapima me'nea nontamina maka teve taginte'ne. Ana nehuno zamagima me'nea vahe'mokizmi nontaminena teve tagintegeno te'ne.
14 Then he supervised the soldiers from Babylonia while they tore down the walls on all sides of Jerusalem.
Hagi kini ne'mofo avate'ma kvama nehaza sondia vahete'ma ugotama hu'nea ne'enema e'naza sondia vahe'mo'za, Jerusalemi kumamofo keginarera mani kagine'za ana kegina maka tapage hutrazageno kegina omane'ne.
15 Then Nebuzaradan (forced to go/exiled) [to Babylon] some of the poorest people, those Israelis who had said they would support the king of Babylon, the rest of the craftsmen, and other people who had remained in Jerusalem.
Hagi kini ne'mofo avate'ma kvama nehaza sondia vahete'ma ugotama hu'nea ne' Nebusaradani'a, zamunte omane vahe'ma mani'nazana nezamavareno, rankumapima mago'ama zamatre'naza vahe'enena nezamavareno, koro'ma hu'za Babiloni vahe zamazampima atre'za umani'naza vahe'enena nezamavareno, ruzahu ruzahu zantamima troma nehaza vahe'ma mago'ama mani'naza vahe'enena zamavareno Babiloni vuno ome kina huzmante'ne.
16 But Nebuzaradan allowed some of the very poor people to remain [in Judah] to take care of the vineyards and fields.
Hianagi Nebusaradani'a, Juda mopafi mani'neta waini hozane, mago'aza hozanena erita nenteta maniho huno zamunte omane vahera mago'a zamatrege'za mani'naze.
17 The soldiers from Babylonia broke [into pieces] the [huge] bronze pillars that were in front of the temple, and the [large] bronze water tank, and the [ten bronze water] carts, and they took all the bronze to Babylon.
Hagi Babiloni vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzamofo mono nompi vu'za, bronsireti'ma tro'ma hu'naza fumaza zafaramina runafe'nafu hu'za e'neri'za, Ra Anumzamofo mono nompima bronsireti'ma tro'ma hu'naza zuompama tima afintageno'ma nemanea zuompane, agia'a raminena ru tamana tamanu hute'za ana maka bronsiramina eri'za Babiloni vu'naze.
18 They also took away the basins [for holding the ashes from the burned sacrifices], the shovels [for cleaning out the ashes], the tools for snuffing out the wicks of the lamps, the basins [for holding the blood of the sacrificed animals], the dishes [for incense], and all the [other] bronze items that were used when sacrifices were made at the temple.
Hagi ana nehu'za kavoramine, sipetiramine tavi'ma erisu'ma nehaza zotaramine, ranra zuomparamine ne'onse zuompa raminena eri'naze. Ana nehu'za bronsireti'ma tro'ma hu'naza zantamima mono nompima me'nege'za eri'zama e'neriza zantamina ana maka eri'za vu'naze.
19 Nebuzaradan also [told his soldiers to] take away the small bowls, the dishes for burning incense, the basins, pots, lampstands, bowls [for incense], and the bowls used for pouring out the wine offerings. They took all the other items that were made of pure gold or silver.
Hagi Babiloni kini ne'mofo avate'ma kvama nehaza sondia vahete'ma ugotama hu'nea ne' Nebusaradani'a, ana zanke huno ne'onse zuomparamine, tevema taginentaza kavoramine, ranra zuomparamine, waini ti ofama nehaza amu mani tin taferaminema golireti'ene silvareti'enema tro'ma hu'naza zantaminena, ana maka erino Babiloni vu'ne.
20 The bronze from the two pillars, the [large water] tank and the twelve statues of oxen that were beneath it, and the water carts, was more/heavier than they could weigh. Those things had been made for the temple during the time that Solomon was the king.
Hagi ko'ma kini ne' Solomoni'ma Ra Anumzamofo mono nompi mesie huno bronsireti'ma tro'ma hu'nea zantamina, tare fumaza zafa rarenki, tima afinentaza zuompane, bulimakaomofo amema'a ramima fenka kazigama tro'ma hunte'nea zantamine, anazama azerisgama hu'nea agia raminena eri'za vu'naze. Hagi ana maka bronsireti'ma tro'ma hu'naza zantamimofo kna'amo'a agateregeno sigerirera erinteno kegara osu'ne.
21 Each of the pillars was (27 feet/8 meters) tall and (18 feet/5.5 meters) around. They were hollow, and each had sides/walls that were (3 in./8 cm.) thick.
Hagi ana tare zafararema bronsireti'ma tro'ma hu'nazana, za'za amo'a 8mita higeno, kagi'amo'a 5mitagi 30'a sentimita higeno, agu'afina hagro hu'ne. Hagi anazama tro'ma hu'naza bronsimofo tapa'amo'a 75 milimita hu'ne.
22 The bronze head on the top of each pillar was (7-1/2 feet/over 2 meters) high and was decorated all around with a bronze [network of figures that represented] pomegranates.
Hagi ana fumaza zafararemofo zanesenirera bronsiretike kankrira tro hu'nazankino ana zamofo mareri'amo'a 2mitagi 20ti sentimita hu'ne. Ana hu'nege'za bronsiretike pomigreneti zafa rgamofo amema'a, anazantera krente'za avasase'a hugagi'naze. Hagi mago fumaza zafamofona anazanke hu'za pomigreneti zafa rgamofo amema'a krente'za avasase'a hunte'naze.
23 There was a total of 100 figures of pomegranates on the network at the top, 96 of which could be seen from the ground.
Hagi ana fumaza zafa raremofo zanasenire'ma tro'ma hunte'naza zamofo asoparegama pomigreneti zafa rgamofo amema'ama krente'nazana, 96si'a krentetere hu'naze. Ana nehu'za ana fumaza zafararemofo zanesenire'ma tro'ma hunte'naza zantera, pomigrenetimofo raga 100'a tro huntetere hu'naze. (2 Kin 25:18-21)
24 When Nebuzaradan [returned to Babylon], he took [with him as prisoners] Seraiah the Supreme Priest, Zephaniah who was Seraiah’s deputy, and the three men who guarded the entrances [to the temple].
Hagi Babiloni sondia vahete kva ne' Nebusaradani'a vugota pristi ne' Seraiane agri amagenare'ma hu'nea pristi ne' Zefanaiane 3'a vahe'ma mono no kafante'ma kvama nehaza vahe'enena kina huzmanteno zamavareno vu'ne.
25 He found [some other] people who were [hiding] in the city. [So] from them he took a commander of the army [of Judah], seven of the king’s advisors, the army commander’s chief secretary who was in charge of recruiting [soldiers for the army], and 60 [other] soldiers.
Hagi ana nehuno Nebusaradani'a Jerusalemi rankumapintira sondia vahete'ma kvama hu'nea nera nevreno, kini ne'ma antahintahima nemiza vahera 7ni'a vahe zamageno nezamavareno, sondia vahete'ma kvama hu'nea ne'mofo avonkre eri'zama e'rinenteno, sondia vahe'ma kasefa zamavareno zamazerinte fatgoma nehia ne'enena avre'ne. Ana nehuno Jerusalemi rankumapintira, 60'a vahe mani'nageno zamageno zamavare'ne.
26 Nebuzaradan took them all to the king of Babylon, [who was still] at Riblah.
Hagi Babiloni sondia vahete kva ne' Nebusaradani'a anama zamavarea vahera ana maka zamavareno Babiloni kini ne'ma Ribla kumate'ma mani'nere vu'ne.
27 There at Riblah in the Hamath region, the king of Babylon commanded that they [all] be executed. [Many of the people of] Judah were (forced to leave/exiled from) their own land.
Hagi ana hutegeno Babiloni kini ne'mo'a Hamati kaziga Ribla kumate ana maka vahera zamahe fri'ne. Ana hute'za Juda vahera mopazamifintira zamavare'za kina ome huzmanteku Babiloni moparega vu'naze.
28 The number of people who were captured and sent to Babylon at that time, when Nebuchadnezzar had been ruling for almost seven years, was 3,023.
Hagi Nebukatnesama kinima manino egeno 7nima hia kafufina, 3 tausen 23'a Jiu vahera zamavareno kina ome huzmante'ne.
29 Then, when he had been ruling for almost 18 years, his [soldiers] took 832 [more Israeli people to Babylonia].
Hagi Nebukatnesama kinima mani'negeno 18nima hia kafufina, Jerusalemi kumapintira 832'a vahe zamavareno kina ome huzmante'ne.
30 When he had been ruling almost 23 years, he sent Nebuzaradan [to Jerusalem again], and he brought back 745 [more Israelis to Babylonia]. That was a total of 4,600 Israelis [who were taken to Babylonia].
Hagi Nebukatnesama kinima manino egeno 23ma hia kafufina, Babiloni sondia vahete kva ne' Nebusaradani'a 745fu'a Jiu vahe zamavareno kina ome huzmante'ne. Ana higeno ana makara 4 tausen 600'a Jiu vahe zamavare'za kina ome huzmante'naze. (2 Kini 25:27-30)
31 After King Jehoiachin of Judah had been in prison [in Babylon] for almost thirty-seven years, Evil-Merodach became the king of Babylon. He was kind to Jehoiachin and ordered that he be released from prison. That was on March 31 of the year that Evil-Merodach became king.
Hagi Juda kini ne' Jehoiakini'ma kinafima manino egeno 37nima hia kafumofona 12fu ikamofo 25 zupa, Babiloni kini ne' Evil-Merodaki'a Jehoiakinina asunku hunteno kinafintira katufente'ne. Na'ankure agra ana kafufi Babiloni kinia efore huteno anara hu'ne.
32 He [always] spoke kindly to Jehoiachin and gave him a position in which he was honored more than [all] the other kings [who had been exiled/taken to Babylon].
Hagi Evil-Merodaki'a Jehoaikinina so'e avu'ava hunenteno, mago'a kini vahe'ma agranema Babiloni kumapima umani'naza kini vahe'mo'zama nemaniza tra'ma agatere'nea trate higeno mani'ne.
33 He [supplied new clothes] for Jehoiachin, to replace the clothes that he had been wearing in prison. [He also allowed] Jehoiachin to eat with him every day, all during the rest of his life.
Hagi ana hutegeno Jehoaikini'a antanineno kinafima mani'nea kukena'a hatenetreno, kasefa kukena eri hankreteno, ananteti'ma agafama huno viana maka zupa Babiloni kini ne'mo'ma nezama nenea tratetira ne'zana netere hu'ne.
34 Every day, the King [of Babylon] gave him some money [to buy the things that he needed. That continued] until the day that Jehoiachin died.
Hagi mago mago zupama ne'zama mizaseno'ma nesia zago'a, Babiloni kini ne'mo'a Jehoiakinina amitere huno nevigeno vuno agrama fri'nea knare ome vagare'ne.
