< 2 Kings 25 >
1 And it cometh to pass, in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth of the month, come hath Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, he and all his force, against Jerusalem, and encampeth against it, and buildeth against it a fortification round about.
Omiyo e odiechiengʼ mar apar mar dwe mar apar e higa mar ochiko mar loch Zedekia, Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon nodhi gi jolweny mage duto momonjo Jerusalem. Nolworo dala maduongʼno mi ogoyone agengʼa koni gi koni.
2 And the city entereth into siege till the eleventh year of king Zedekiah,
Dala maduongʼno ne ogone agengʼa nyaka higa mar apar gachiel mar ruoth Zedekia.
3 on the ninth of the month — when the famine is severe in the city, and there hath not been bread for the people of the land,
E odiechiengʼ mar ochiko e dwe mar angʼwen kech mane ni e dala maduongʼno nomedore makoro ne onge chiemo mane ji nyalo chamo.
4 then the city is broken up, and all the men of war [go] by night the way of the gate, between the two walls that [are] by the garden of the king, and the Chaldeans [are] against the city round about, and [the king] goeth the way of the plain.
Bangʼ mano ohinga mar dala maduongʼno nomuki kendo jolweny duto noringo ka tony gotieno ka gikalo e rangach man e kind ohinga ariyo man but puoth ruoth, kata obedo ni jo-Babulon nolworo dala maduongʼno kamano. Negiringo ka gichomo Araba,
5 And the force of the Chaldeans pursue after the king, and overtake him in the plains of Jericho, and all his force have been scattered from him;
to jolwenj Babulon nolawo ruoth mojuke e pewe Jeriko. Jolwenje duto noringo oweye moke,
6 and they seize the king, and bring him up unto the king of Babylon, to Riblah, and they speak with him — judgment.
kendo gimako ruoth. Ne gitere Ribla ir ruodh Babulon, kendo kanyo ema nongʼadne buch twech.
7 And the sons of Zedekiah they have slaughtered before his eyes, and the eyes of Zedekiah he hath blinded, and bindeth him with brazen fetters, and they bring him to Babylon.
Neginego yawuot Zedekia e wangʼe koneno. Bangʼe negigolo wengene oko magitweye gi nyoroche mag nyinyo mi gitere Babulon.
8 And in the fifth month, on the seventh of the month (it [is] the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon), hath Nebuzaradan chief of the executioners, servant of the king of Babylon, come to Jerusalem,
E odiechiengʼ mar abiriyo mar dwe mar abich e higa mar apar gochiko mar loch Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon, Nebuzaradan jatend jolweny marito ruoth, ma en achiel kuom jodong ruodh Babulon nobiro Jerusalem.
9 and he burneth the house of Jehovah, and the house of the king, and all the houses of Jerusalem, yea, every great house he hath burned with fire;
Nowangʼo hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, kar dak ruoth kod udi duto man Jerusalem. Bende nowangʼo udi duto moger mabeyo.
10 and the walls of Jerusalem round about have all the forces of the Chaldeans, who [are] with the chief of the executioners, broken down.
Jolweny duto mag Babulon mane ichiko gi jatend jolweny marito ruoth ne omuko ohinga moluoro Jerusalem.
11 And the rest of the people, those left in the city, and those falling who have fallen to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude, hath Nebuzaradan chief of the executioners removed;
Nebuzaradan jatend jolweny notero e twech joma nodongʼ e dala maduongʼno, kaachiel gi oganda mamoko kod joma noringo modhi ir ruodh Babulon mondo otony.
12 and of the poor of the land hath the chief of the executioners left for vine-dressers and for husbandmen.
To jatend lweny noweyo jopinyno moko mane odhier ahinya mondo oti e puothe mag mzabibu kod puothe mamoko.
13 And the pillars of brass that [are] in the house of Jehovah, and the bases, and the sea of brass, that [is] in the house of Jehovah, have the Chaldeans broken in pieces, and bear away their brass to Babylon.
Jo-Babulon nomuko sirni mag mula, rachungi mag taya kod Karaya Maduongʼ mar mula mane ni e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kendo ne gitero mulago nyaka Babulon.
14 And the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass with which they minister they have taken,
Bende negikawo agulni, opawo, gir ngʼado otambi mar taya, bakunde kod gik moko duto molos gi mula mane itiyogo e hekalu.
15 and the fire-pans, and the bowls that [are] wholly of silver, hath the chief of the executioners taken.
Jatend jolweny marito ruoth nokawo gik moko duto molos gi dhahabu kata fedha ma gin gima iwangʼoe ubani kod bakunde mitimogo misengini.
16 The two pillars, the one sea, and the bases that Solomon made for the house of Jehovah, there was no weighing of the brass of all these vessels;
Mula mane ogolo e sirni ariyo, gi Karaya Maduongʼ kod rachungi mag taya, mane Solomon olosone hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, ne pek ma ok nyal pim.
17 eighteen cubits [is] the height of the one pillar, and the chapiter on it [is] of brass, and the height of the chapiter [is] three cubits, and the net and the pomegranates [are] on the chapiter round about — the whole [is] of brass; and like these hath the second pillar, with the net.
Siro ka siro borne ne romo fut piero ariyo gabiriyo. Mula mane ni e ewi siro ka siro ne romo fut angʼwen gi nus, kendo nokede gi gik mongʼinore ongʼinore molwore koni gi koni. Siro machielo man-gi gik mongʼinore ongʼinore, ne chal kod mokwongo.
18 And the chief of the executioners taketh Seraiah the head priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold,
Jatend jolweny marito ruoth nomako Seraya jadolo maduongʼ, gi Zefania jadolo maluwe kod ji adek ma jorit dhoot hekalu moterogi e twech.
19 and out of the city he hath taken a certain eunuch who is appointed over the men of war, and five men of those seeing the king's face who have been found in the city, and the head scribe of the host, who mustereth the people of the land, and sixty men of the people of the land who are found in the city,
To kuom joma ne odongʼ e dala maduongʼno, nomako jatelo mane ochungʼ ne jolweny kod ji abich ma jongʼad rieko ne ruoth. Bende nomako jagoro mane tichne en ndiko nying joma onego bed jolweny kod jodonge piero auchiel mane oyudi e dala maduongʼno.
20 and Nebuzaradan chief of the executioners taketh them, and causeth them to go unto the king of Babylon, to Libnah,
Nebuzaradan jatend lweny nomakogi duto mokelogi Ribla ir ruodh Babulon.
21 and the king of Babylon smiteth them, and putteth them to death in Riblah, in the land of Hamath, and he removeth Judah from off its land.
Ruoth nogolo chik mondo neg-gi Ribla kanyo, e piny jo-Hamath. Omiyo Juda noter e twech mabor gi pinye owuon.
22 And the people that is left in the land of Judah whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon hath left — he appointeth over them Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan.
Nebukadneza ruodh Babulon noyiero Gedalia wuod Ahikam, ma wuod Shafan mondo otel ne ji mane odongʼ Juda.
23 And all the heads of the forces hear — they and the men — that the king of Babylon hath appointed Gedaliah, and they come in unto Gedaliah, to Mizpah, even Ishmael son of Nethaniah, and Johanan son of Kareah, and Seraiah son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah son of the Maachathite — they and their men;
Kane jatend jolweny duto kod jogi nowinjo ni ruodh Babulon oseyiero Gedalia kaka jatelo maduongʼ, negibiro ir Gedalia e dala miluongo ni Mizpa. Jogo ne gin Ishmael wuod Nethania, Johanan wuod Karea, Seraya wuod Tanhumeth ja-Netofath, Jazania ja-Maakath kod jogegi.
24 and Gedaliah sweareth to them, and to their men, and saith to them, 'Be not afraid of the servants of the Chaldeans, dwell in the land and serve the king of Babylon, and it is good for you.'
Gedalia nokwongʼore kosingorenegi niya, “Kik uluor jotend Babulon, to daguru e pinyni kendo mondo uti ne ruodh Babulon eka unudhi maber.”
25 And it cometh to pass, in the seventh month, come hath Ishmael son of Nathaniah, son of Elishama of the seed of the kingdom, and ten men with him, and they smite Gedaliah, and he dieth, and the Jews and the Chaldeans who have been with him in Mizpah.
Kata kamano, e dwe mar abiriyo Ishmael wuod Nethania, ma wuod Elishama mane koth joka ruoth, nobiro gi ji apar ma ginego Gedalia kod jo-Juda gi jo-Babulon mane ni kode Mizpa.
26 And all the people rise, from small even unto great, and the heads of the forces, and come in to Egypt, for they have been afraid of the presence of the Chaldeans.
Nikech gima notimoreni, ji duto chakre jochan nyaka joma omewo, to gi jotend jolweny duto, noringo modhi Misri nikech negiluoro jo-Babulon.
27 And it cometh to pass, in the thirty and seventh year of the removal of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the twenty and seventh of the month hath Evil-Merodach king of Babylon lifted up, in the year of his reigning, the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, out of the house of restraint,
E higa mar piero adek gabiriyo mar twech Jehoyakin ruodh Juda, e higa mane Evil-Merodak obedo ruodh Babulon, nogonyo Jehoyakin e twech e odiechiengʼ mar piero ariyo gabiriyo, e dwe mar apar gariyo.
28 and speaketh with him good things and putteth his throne above the throne of the kings who [are] with him in Babylon,
Nowuoyo kode modembore kendo nomiye kom duongʼ moloyo ruodhi mamoko mane ni kode e twech Babulon.
29 and hath changed the garments of his restraint, and he hath eaten bread continually before him all days of his life,
Omiyo Jehoyakin nolonyo lepe mag twech kendo e ndalo ngimane duto ne ochiemo pile pile e mesa ruoth.
30 and his allowance — a continual allowance — hath been given to him from the king, the matter of a day in its day, all days of his life.
Odiechiengʼ ka odiechiengʼ, ruoth ne miyo Jehoyakin pok mowinjore kode ndalo duto mag ngimane.
