1 Therfor the puple of the lond took Joachaz, the sone of Josie, and ordeynede hym kyng for his fadir in Jerusalem.
Tulit ergo populus terræ Ioachaz filium Iosiæ, et constituit regem pro patre suo in Ierusalem.
2 Joachaz was of thre and twenti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnede thre monethis in Jerusalem.
Vigintitrium annorum erat Ioachaz, cum regnare cœpisset, et tribus mensibus regnavit in Ierusalem.
3 Sotheli the kyng of Egipt, `whan he hadde come to Jerusalem, remouyde hym, and condempnede the lond in an hundrid talentis of siluer and in a talent of gold.
Amovit autem eum rex Ægypti cum venisset in Ierusalem, et condemnavit terram centum talentis argenti, et talento auri.
4 And he ordeynede for hym Eliachim, his brother, kyng on Juda and Jerusalem; and turnede his name Joakym. Sotheli he took thilk Joachaz with hym silf, and brouyte in to Egipt.
Constituitque pro eo regem, Eliakim fratrem eius, super Iudam et Ierusalem: et vertit nomen eius Ioakim: ipsum vero Ioachaz tulit secum, et abduxit in Ægyptum.
5 Joakym was of fyue and twenti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnyde eleuene yeer in Jerusalem, and he dide yuel bifor `his Lord God.
Vigintiquinque annorum erat Ioakim cum regnare cœpisset, et undecim annis regnavit in Ierusalem: fecitque malum coram Domino Deo suo.
6 Nabugodonosor, kyng of Caldeis, styede ayens this Joakym, and ledde hym boundun with chaynes in to Babiloyne.
Contra hunc ascendit Nabuchodonosor rex Chaldæorum, et vinctum catenis duxit in Babylonem.
7 To which Babiloyne he translatide also the vessels of the Lord, and settide tho in his temple.
Ad quam et vasa Domini transtulit, et posuit ea in templo suo.
8 Sotheli the residue of wordis of Joakym, and of hise abhomynaciouns whiche he wrouyte, and that weren foundun in hym, ben conteyned in the book of kyngis of Israel and of Juda. Therfor Joachym, his sone, regnede for hym.
Reliqua autem verborum Ioakim, et abominationum eius, quas operatus est, et quæ inventa sunt in eo, continentur in Libro regum Iuda et Israel. Regnavit autem Ioachin filius eius pro eo.
9 Joachym was of eiyte yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnede thre monethis and ten daies in Jerusalem, and he dide yuel in the siyt of the Lord.
Octo annorum erat Ioachin cum regnare cœpisset, et tribus mensibus, ac decem diebus regnavit in Ierusalem, fecitque malum in conspectu Domini.
10 And whanne the cercle of the yeer was turned aboute, Nabugodonosor the kynge sente men, whiche also brouyten hym in to Babiloyne, whanne the moost preciouse vessels of the hows of the Lord weren borun out togidir. Sotheli he ordeynede Sedechie, his fadris brother, kyng on Juda and Jerusalem.
Cumque anni circulus volveretur, misit Nabuchodonosor rex, qui adduxerunt eum in Babylonem, asportatis simul pretiosissimis vasis domus Domini: Regem vero constituit Sedeciam patruum eius super Iudam et Ierusalem.
11 Sedechie was of oon and twenti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnede eleuene yeer in Jerusalem.
Viginti et unius anni erat Sedecias cum regnare cœpisset, et undecim annis regnavit in Ierusalem.
12 And he dide yuel in the siyt of `his Lord God, and he was not aschamed of the face of Jeremye, the prophete, spekynge to hym bi the mouth of the Lord.
Fecitque malum in oculis Domini Dei sui, nec erubuit faciem Ieremiæ prophetæ, loquentis ad se ex ore Domini.
13 Also he yede awey fro the kyng Nabugodonosor, that hadde made hym to swere bi God; and he made hard his nol and herte, that he nolde turne ayen to the Lord of Israel.
A rege quoque Nabuchodonosor recessit, qui adiuraverat eum per Deum: et induravit cervicem suam et cor ut non reverteretur ad Dominum Deum Israel.
14 But also alle the princes of preestis and the puple trespassiden wickidli, bi alle abhomynaciouns of hethene men; and thei defouliden the hows of the Lord, which he halewide to hym silf in Jerusalem.
Sed et universi principes sacerdotum, et populus, prævaricati sunt inique iuxta universas abominationes Gentium, et polluerunt domum Domini, quam sanctificaverat sibi in Ierusalem.
15 Forsothe the Lord God of her fadris sente to hem bi the hond of hise messangeris, and roos bi nyyt, and amonestide ech day; for he sparide his puple and dwellyng place.
Mittebat autem Dominus Deus patrum suorum ad illos per manum nunciorum suorum de nocte consurgens, et quotidie commonens: eo quod parceret populo et habitaculo suo.
16 And thei scorneden the messangeris of God, and dispisiden hise wordis, and scorneden hise prophetis; til the greet veniaunce of the Lord stiede on his puple, and noon heelyng were.
At illi subsannabant nuncios Dei, et parvipendebant sermones eius, illudebantque prophetis, donec ascenderet furor Domini in populum eius, et esset nulla curatio.
17 And he brouyte on hem the kyng of Caldeis; and killide the yonge men of hem `bi swerd in the hows of seyntuarie; `he hadde not merci of a yong `man, and of a vergyn, and of an eld man, and sotheli nether of a man niy the deth for eldnesse, but he bitook alle in the hond of that king of Caldeis.
Adduxit enim super eos regem Chaldæorum, et interfecit iuvenes eorum gladio in domo sanctuarii sui, non est misertus adolescentis, et virginis, et senis, nec decrepiti quidem, sed omnes tradidit in manibus eius.
18 And he translatide in to Babiloyne alle the vessels of the hows of the Lord, bothe the grettere and the lasse vessels, and the tresours of the temple, and of the kyng, and of the princes.
Universaque vasa domus Domini tam maiora, quam minora, et thesauros templi, et regis, et principum transtulit in Babylonem.
19 Enemyes brenten the hows of the Lord; thei distrieden the wal of Jerusalem; thei brenten alle the touris; and thei distrieden what euer thing was preciouse.
Incenderunt hostes domum Dei, destruxeruntque murum Ierusalem, universas turres combusserunt, et quidquid pretiosum fuerat, demoliti sunt.
20 If ony man ascapide the swerd, he was led in to Babiloyne, and seruyde the kyng and hise sones; til the kyng of Peersis regnyde,
Siquis evaserat gladium, ductus in Babylonem servivit regi et filiis eius, donec imperaret rex Persarum,
21 and the word of the Lord bi the mouth of Jeremye was fillid, and til the lond halewide hise sabatis. For in alle the daies of desolacioun it made sabat, til that seuenti yeer weren fillid.
et compleretur sermo Domini ex ore Ieremiæ, et celebraret terra sabbata sua: cunctis enim diebus desolationis egit sabbatum usque dum complerentur septuaginta anni.
22 Forsothe in the firste yeer of Cyrus, kyng of Persis, to fille the word of the Lord, which he hadde spoke bi the mouth of Jeremye, the Lord reiside the spirit of Cirus, king of Persis, that comaundide to be prechid in al his rewme, yhe, bi scripture, and seide, Cirus,
Anno autem primo Cyri regis Persarum ad explendum sermonem Domini, quem locutus fuerat per os Ieremiæ, suscitavit Dominus spiritum Cyri regis Persarum: qui iussit prædicari in universo regno suo, etiam per scripturam, dicens:
23 the king of Persis, seith these thingis, The Lord God of heuene yaf to me alle the rewmes of erthe, and he comaundide to me, that Y schulde bilde to hym an hows in Jerusalem, which is in Judee. Who of you is in al his puple? `his Lord God be with hym, and stie he `in to Jerusalem.
Hæc dicit Cyrus rex Persarum: Omnia regna terræ dedit mihi Dominus Deus cæli, et ipse præcepit mihi ut ædificarem ei domum in Ierusalem, quæ est in Iudæa: quis ex vobis est in omni populo eius? sit Dominus Deis suus cum eo, et ascendat.
