< Jeremiah 52 >

1 A son of twenty and one years [is] Zedekiah in his reigning, and eleven years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
Zedekia aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ũmwe rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ikũmi na ũmwe. Nyina eetagwo Hamutali mwarĩ wa Jeremia; nake oimĩte Libina.
2 and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that Jehoiakim hath done,
Nake agĩĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, o ta ũrĩa Jehoiakimu eekĩte.
3 for, because of the anger of Jehovah, it hath been in Jerusalem and Judah till He hath cast them from before His face, and Zedekiah doth rebel against the king of Babylon.
Na nĩ ũndũ wa marakara ma Jehova-rĩ, nĩkĩo maũndũ macio mothe meekĩkire kũu Jerusalemu na Juda, na mũthia-inĩ akĩmaingata mehere mbere yake. Na rĩrĩ, Zedekia akĩremera mũthamaki wa Babuloni, akĩaga gwathĩka.
4 And it cometh to pass, in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth of the month, come hath Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon — he and all his force — against Jerusalem, and they encamp against it, and build against it a fortification round about;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mwaka-inĩ wa kenda wa ũthamaki wa Zedekia, mũthenya wa ikũmi wa mweri wa ikũmi-rĩ, Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni agĩthiĩ kũhũũrana na Jerusalemu arĩ na ita rĩake rĩothe, nao makĩamba hema nja ya itũũra rĩu inene, na magĩaka ihumbu cia tĩĩri mĩena yothe yarĩo cia kũmateithia gũtharĩkĩra itũũra rĩu.
5 and the city cometh into siege till the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
Narĩo itũũra rĩu inene rĩgĩikara rĩrĩ irigiicĩrie nginya mwaka wa ikũmi na ũmwe wa ũthamaki wa Zedekia.
6 In the fourth month, in the ninth of the month, when the famine is severe in the city, and there hath been no bread for the people of the land,
Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya wa kenda wa mweri wa kana, ngʼaragu ĩkĩneneha mũno kũu itũũra-inĩ, o nginya gũkĩaga irio cia kũrĩĩo nĩ andũ a bũrũri ũcio.
7 then is the city broken up, and all the men of war flee, and go forth from the city by night, the way of the gate between the two walls, that [is] by the king's garden — and the Chaldeans [are] by the city round about — and they go the way of the plain.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo rũthingo rwa itũũra rĩu inene rũkĩmomorwo, nacio mbũtũ ciothe cia ita ikĩũra. Moimire itũũra-inĩ ũtukũ magereire kĩhingo-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩarĩ gatagatĩ ga thingo cierĩ hakuhĩ na mũgũnda wa mũthamaki, o na gũtuĩka andũ a Babuloni nĩmarigiicĩirie itũũra rĩu inene rĩothe. Nao makĩũra merekeire Araba,
8 And the forces of the Chaldeans pursue after the king, and overtake Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho, and all his forces have been scattered from him,
no mbũtũ ya ita ya Babuloni ĩgĩtengʼeria Mũthamaki Zedekia nginya ĩkĩmũkinyĩra werũ-inĩ ũrĩa mwaraganu wa Jeriko. Thigari ciake ciothe ikĩamũranio nake ikĩhurunjwo.
9 and they capture the king, and bring him up unto the king of Babylon to Riblah, in the land of Hamath, and he speaketh with him — judgments.
Nayo mbũtũ ya ita ya Babuloni ĩkĩnyiita Mũthamaki Zedekia. Makĩmũtwara kũrĩ mũthamaki wa Babuloni ũrĩa warĩ kũu Ribila, bũrũri-inĩ wa Hamathu, na kũu nĩkuo aamũtuĩrĩire ciira.
10 And the king of Babylon slaughtereth the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and also all the princes of Judah hath he slaughtered in Riblah;
Mũthamaki wa Babuloni arĩ kũu Ribila nĩoragithirie ariũ a Zedekia o hau maitho-inĩ ma ithe wao; agĩcooka akĩũragithia anene othe a Juda.
11 and the eyes of Zedekiah he hath blinded, and he bindeth him in brazen fetters, and the king of Babylon bringeth him to Babylon, and putteth him in the house of inspection unto the day of his death.
Nĩacookire agĩkũũrithia Zedekia maitho, na akĩmuoha na bĩngũ cia gĩcango, akĩmũtwara Babuloni, na kũu akĩmũikia njeera nginya mũthenya ũrĩa aakuire.
12 And in the fifth month, in the tenth of the month — it [is] the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon — come hath Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners; he hath stood before the king of Babylon in Jerusalem,
Mũthenya wa ikũmi wa mweri wa ĩtano, mwaka-inĩ wa ikũmi na kenda wa gũthamaka kwa Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni-rĩ, Nebuzaradani mũnene wa arangĩri a mũthamaki wa Babuloni, ũrĩa watungataga mũthamaki wa Babuloni, agĩũka Jerusalemu,
13 and he burneth the house of Jehovah, and the house of the king, and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house he hath burned with fire,
agĩcina hekarũ ya Jehova, na nyũmba ya ũthamaki, o na nyũmba ciothe cia Jerusalemu. Ningĩ agĩcina nyũmba o yothe yarĩ ya bata kuo.
14 and all the walls of Jerusalem round about broken down have all the forces of the Chaldeans that [are] with the chief of the executioners.
Nayo mbũtũ yothe ya ita ya Babuloni, ĩtongoretio nĩ mũnene ũcio wa arangĩri a mũthamaki, ĩkĩmomora thingo ciothe iria ciathiũrũrũkĩirie Jerusalemu.
15 And of the poor of the people, and the remnant of the people who are left in the city, and those who are falling away, who have fallen unto the king of Babylon, and the remnant of the multitude, hath Nebuzar-Adan chief of the executioners, removed;
Nebuzaradani ũcio warĩ mũnene wa arangĩri a mũthamaki nĩatahire andũ amwe arĩa maarĩ athĩĩni mũno, na andũ arĩa maatigaire kũu itũũra-inĩ rĩu inene, hamwe na mabundi marĩa mangĩ, o na andũ arĩa metwarĩte o ene kũrĩ mũthamaki wa Babuloni.
16 and of the poor of the land hath Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, left for vine-dressers and for husbandmen.
No Nebuzaradani nĩatigire andũ amwe arĩa maarĩ athĩĩni mũno a bũrũri ũcio kuo, nĩguo marutage wĩra mĩgũnda-inĩ ya mĩthabibũ na mĩgũnda-inĩ ĩrĩa ĩngĩ.
17 And the pillars of brass that [are] to the house of Jehovah, and the bases, and the brasen sea that [is] in the house of Jehovah, have the Chaldeans broken, and they bear away all the brass of them to Babylon;
Andũ a Babuloni makiunanga itugĩ cia gĩcango, na metha cia kũigĩrĩrwo indo, na Karia karĩa kaarĩ ga gĩcango, iria ciarĩ thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya Jehova, magĩkuua gĩcango kĩu gĩothe magĩgĩtwara Babuloni.
18 and the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the bowls, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass with which they minister, they have taken away;
Ningĩ magĩkuua nyũngũ, na icakũri, na magathĩ ma gũtinia ndaambĩ, na mbakũri cia kũminjaminjĩria maaĩ, na thaani, o na indo ciothe cia gĩcango iria ciahũthagĩrwo wĩra-inĩ wa hekarũ, magĩthiĩ nacio.
19 and the basins, and the fire-pans, and the bowls, and the pots, and the candlesticks, and the spoons, and the cups, the gold of that which [is] gold, and the silver of that which [is] silver, hath the chief of the executioners taken.
Mũnene ũcio wa thigari cia mũthamaki nĩakuuire mbakũri iria nene, na Ngĩo, na mbakũri cia kũminjaminjĩria maaĩ, na nyũngũ, na mĩtĩ ya matawa, na thaani, o na mbakũri iria ciahũthagĩrwo na kũruta maruta ma kũnyuuo, iria ciothe ciathondeketwo na thahabu ĩrĩa therie kana betha.
20 The two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve brazen oxen that [are] beneath the bases, that king Solomon made for the house of Jehovah, there was no weighing of the brass of all these vessels.
Gĩcango kĩrĩa kĩarutirwo itugĩ-inĩ icio cierĩ, na Karia kau, na ndegwa iria ikũmi na igĩrĩ cia gĩcango iria ciarĩ rungu rwako, na metha, iria Mũthamaki Solomoni aathondekete cia hekarũ ya Jehova, gĩtingĩathimĩkire nĩ kũingĩha.
21 As to the pillars, eighteen cubits [is] the height of the one pillar, and a cord of twelve cubits doth compass it, and its thickness [is] four fingers hollow.
O gĩtugĩ kĩmwe gĩacio kĩarĩ kĩa mĩkono ikũmi na ĩnana kũraiha, na mĩkono ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ gũthiũrũrũka; na o kĩmwe gĩacio kĩarĩ na ũtungu wa ciara inya, na kĩarĩ na irima gatagatĩ.
22 And the chapiter upon it [is] of brass, and the height of the one chapiter [is] five cubits, and net-work and pomegranates [are] on the chapiter round about, the whole [is] of brass; and like these have the second pillar, and pomegranates.
Kĩongo gĩa gĩcango kĩrĩa kĩarĩ hau gĩtugĩ-igũrũ, o kĩmwe kĩarĩ kĩa mĩkono ĩtano kũraiha, na gĩkagemio na rũgara rũrĩ na makomamanga ma gĩcango gũthiũrũrũkĩria. Gĩtugĩ kĩu kĩngĩ gĩa keerĩ, kĩrĩ na makomamanga makĩo nĩkĩahaanaine biũ na kĩu kĩngĩ kĩa mbere.
23 And the pomegranates are ninety and six on a side, all the pomegranates [are] a hundred on the net-work round about.
Na haarĩ na makomamanga mĩrongo kenda na matandatũ maacuuhĩte mĩena-inĩ; makomamanga mothe marĩa maathiũrũrũkĩirie igũrũ wa magemio macio ma rũgara maarĩ igana rĩmwe.
24 And the chief of the executioners taketh Seraiah the head priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold,
Mũnene ũcio wa arangĩri nĩanyiitire Seraia mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, na Zefania mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa wa keerĩ harĩ we, o na andũ arĩa atatũ maarangagĩra mũrango.
25 and out of the city he hath taken a certain eunuch, who hath been inspector over the men of war, and seven 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 midst of the city;
Harĩ andũ arĩa maatigaire kũu itũũra-inĩ inene, akĩnyiita mũnene ũrĩa warũgamĩrĩire andũ a mbaara, na akĩnyiita andũ mũgwanja arĩa maataaraga mũthamaki. Ningĩ akĩnyiita karani ũrĩa mũnene, ũrĩa wandĩkithagia andũ a gũthiĩ ita a bũrũri ũcio, na andũ ake mĩrongo ĩtandatũ arĩa maakorirwo itũũra-inĩ rĩu inene.
26 and Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, taketh them, and bringeth them unto the king of Babylon to Riblah,
Nebuzaradani ũcio mũnene wa arangĩri akĩmakuua othe, akĩmatwarĩra mũthamaki wa Babuloni kũu Ribila.
27 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 own ground.
Kũu Ribila, bũrũri-inĩ wa Hamathu, nĩkuo mũthamaki ũcio wa Babuloni aamoragithĩirie. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Juda magĩtahwo, magĩtwarwo bũrũri ũngĩ, makĩrutwo bũrũri wao.
28 This [is] the people whom Nebuchadrezzar hath removed: in the seventh year, of Jews, three thousand and twenty and three;
Ũyũ nĩguo mũigana wa andũ arĩa Nebukadinezaru aatahire akĩmatwara bũrũri ũngĩ: mwaka-inĩ wa mũgwanja aatahire Ayahudi 3,023;
29 in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar — from Jerusalem, souls, eight hundred thirty and two;
naguo mwaka wa ikũmi na ĩnana wa ũthamaki wa Nebukadinezaru, agĩtaha andũ 832 kuuma Jerusalemu;
30 in the three and twentieth year of Nebuchadrezzar, hath Nebuzar-Adan chief of the guard removed of Jewish souls, seven hundred forty and five; all the souls [are] four thousand and six hundred.
o naguo mwaka-inĩ wake wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtatũ, agĩtaha Ayahudi 745 magĩtwarwo bũrũri ũngĩ nĩ Nebuzaradani ũcio mwathi wa arangĩri a mũthamaki. Andũ acio othe maarĩ 4,600.
31 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 fifth of the month, hath Evil-Merodach king of Babylon lifted up, in the year of his reign, the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and bringeth him out from the house of restraint,
Na gũgĩkinya atĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩtatũ na mũgwanja kuuma rĩrĩa Jekonia, mũthamaki wa Juda, aatwarirwo bũrũri ũngĩ, mwaka-inĩ ũrĩa Evili-Merodaki aatuĩkire mũthamaki wa Babuloni-rĩ, nĩohorithirie Jekonia mũthamaki wa Juda, akĩmũrekereria oime njeera mũthenya wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano wa mweri wa ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ.
32 and speaketh with him good things, and setteth his throne above the throne of the kings who [are] with him in Babylon,
Nĩamwarĩirie na ũhooreri, na akĩmũhe gĩtĩ gĩa kũmũtũgĩria gũkĩra athamaki acio angĩ maarĩ nao kũu Babuloni.
33 and he hath changed his prison garments, and he hath eaten bread before him continually, all the days of his life.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jekonia akĩruta nguo ciake cia njeera, na agĩtũũra arĩĩanagĩra irio na mũthamaki matukũ mothe marĩa aatũũrire muoyo.
34 And his allowance — a continual allowance — hath been given to him by the king of Babylon, the matter of a day in its day, till the day of his death — all days of his life.
Mũthamaki ũcio wa Babuloni nĩaheaga Jekonia indo cia kũmũteithia o mũthenya matukũ mothe marĩa aatũũrire muoyo, nginya mũthenya ũrĩa aakuire.
