Yeremia 52
1 Zedekia xɔ ƒe blaeve-vɔ-ɖekɛ esi wòzu fia eye wòɖu fia le Yerusalem ƒe wuiɖekɛ. Dadaa ŋkɔe nye Hamutal, Yeremia ƒe vinyɔnu eye wòtso Libna.
Zedekiah was one and twenty years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and his mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
2 Ewɔ nu vɔ̃ le Yehowa ŋkume, abe ale si Yehoyakim wɔe ene.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
3 Yehowa ƒe dziku tae nu siawo katã va Yerusalem kple Yuda dzi ɖo. Eye le nuwuwu la, eɖe wo ɖa le eƒe ŋkuta. Ke azɔ la, Zedekia dze aglã ɖe Babilonia fia ŋuti.
For through the anger of the LORD did it come to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence: and Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
4 Ale le Zedekia ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe asiekɛlia me, le ɣleti ewolia ƒe ŋkeke ewolia dzi la, Babilonia fia, Nebukadnezar ho kple eƒe aʋakɔ blibo la ɖe Yerusalem dua ŋuti. Woƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe gli la godo eye woƒu kpo ƒo xlã du la.
And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it; and they built forts against it round about.
5 Woɖe to ɖe du la va se ɖe fia Zedekia ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe wuiɖekɛlia me.
So the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
6 Le ɣleti enelia ƒe ŋkeke asiekɛlia dzi la, dɔ si to ɖe dua me la nu sẽ ale gbegbe be nuɖuɖu aɖeke meganɔ dua me na ameawo woaɖu o.
In the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was sore in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
7 Kasia, woŋɔ gli si woɖo ƒo xlã du la eye asrafoha si le dua me la katã si dzo. Togbɔ be Babiloniatɔwo ɖe to ɖe dua hã la, wodze agbagba si le zãtitina to agbo si le gli eveawo dome eye wòte ɖe fia ƒe amabɔ ŋuti la me. Ale woɖo ta Araba gbegbe
Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled, and went forth out of the city by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king’s garden; (now the Chaldeans were against the city round about: ) and they went by the way of the Arabah.
8 gake Babilonia ƒe aʋakɔ la ti Fia Zedekia yome eye wòva tui le Yeriko tagba. Woma eya kple eƒe asrafowo dome eye asrafoawo kaka gbẽe.
But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
9 Ke wolé eya ŋutɔ. Wokplɔe yi na Babilonia fia le Ribla, le Hamatnyigba dzi, afi si wòbu fɔe le.
Then they took the king, and carried him up unto the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he gave judgment upon him.
10 Le Ribla la, Babilonia fia wu Zedekia ƒe viwo katã le eŋkume, hekpe ɖe Yuda ƒe dumegãwo ŋu.
And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes: he slew also all the princes of Judah in Riblah.
11 Emegbe Babilonia fia gbã Zedekia ƒe ŋkuwo heblae kple akɔblikɔsɔkɔsɔ eye wòkplɔe yi Babilonia afi si wòdee gaxɔ me ɖo va se ɖe eƒe kugbe.
And he put out the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon bound him in fetters, and carried him to Babylon, and put him in prison till the day of his death.
12 Le ɣleti atɔ̃lia ƒe ŋkeke ewoa gbe, le fia Nebukadnezar ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe wuiasiekɛlia me la, Nebuzaradan, aʋafia si wɔ dɔ le Babilonia fia te la va Yerusalem.
Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, which stood before the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem:
13 Etɔ dzo Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ, fiasã la kple aƒe siwo le Yerusalem. Vavã, etɔ dzo aƒe vevi ɖe sia ɖe.
and he burned the house of the LORD, and the king’s house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house, burned he with fire.
14 Babiloniatɔwo ƒe aʋakɔ blibo si le aʋafia la ƒe kpɔkplɔ te la gbã Yerusalem ƒe gliwo katã keŋkeŋ.
And all the army of the Chaldeans, that were with the captain of the guard, brake down all the walls of Jerusalem round about.
15 Aʋafia, Nebuzaradan kplɔ ame dahewo, ame siwo susɔ ɖe dua me kple aɖaŋudɔwɔlawo kple ame siwo si Babilonia fia tso la yi aboyo mee.
Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the poorest sort of the people, and the residue of the people that were left in the city, and those that fell away, that fell to the king of Babylon, and the residue of the multitude.
16 Gake Nebuzaradan gblẽ anyigba la ƒe ame dahewo ɖi be woawɔ dɔ le waingblewo kple agble bubuwo dzi.
But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poorest of the land to be vinedressers and husbandmen.
17 Babiloniatɔwo gbã akɔblisɔti, akɔblizɔ kple woƒe anyinɔwo le Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ me eye wolɔ akɔbliawo katã yi Babilonia.
And the pillars of brass that were in the house of the LORD, and the bases and the brasen sea that were in the house of the LORD, did the Chaldeans break in pieces, and carried all the brass of them to Babylon.
18 Wotsɔ zɔwo, sofiwo, akaɖiɖovusẽhɛ, treawo, agbawo kple akɔblinu siwo ŋu dɔ wowɔna le subɔsubɔ me le gbedoxɔ me la hã dzoe.
The pots also, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the basons, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass wherewith they ministered, took they away.
19 Fiaŋusrafowo ƒe tatɔ la tsɔ gagbawo, dzoɖesonuwo, trewo, zewo, akaɖitiwo, nuɖugbawo kple gagba siwo ŋu dɔ wowɔna le nunovɔsa me la hã dzoe, nu siwo wowɔ kple sika nyuitɔ alo klosalo.
And the cups, and the firepans, and the basons, and the pots, and the candlesticks, and the spoons, and the bowls; that which was of gold, in gold, and that which was of silver, in silver, the captain of the guard took away.
20 Akɔbli si woɖe le akɔblisɔti eveawo, gazɔwo kple akɔblinyitsu wuieve siwo le wo te kple eƒe afɔtiwo ŋuti, siwo fia Solomo wɔ na Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ, nu siawo katã ƒe akɔbli mele dada me o.
The two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve brasen bulls that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made for the house of the LORD: the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
21 Sɔti ɖe sia ɖe kɔkɔ “mita” asiekɛ, eye wòkeke “mita” ade, ɖe sia ɖe ƒe titrime anye asibidɛ ene eye do le wo me.
And as for the pillars, the height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits; and a line of twelve cubits did compass it; and the thickness thereof was four fingers: it was hollow.
22 Wotsɔ akɔbli wɔ kukuvi ɖe sɔti ɖe sia ɖe tame, kukuvi ɖe sia ɖe ƒe kɔkɔme nye “mita” eve kple afã. Wolɔ̃ ɖɔ tɔxɛ aɖe tsɔ do atsiã na kukuviawo godoo va kpe eye nenema ke wotsɔ akɔbli wɔ nu si woyɔna be yevuboɖa la ɖe kukuviawo ŋuti godoo va kpe ɖe atsiã tɔxɛ me. Nɔnɔme sia tɔgbi ke mee wowɔ sɔti evelia hã ɖo.
And a chapiter of brass was upon it; and the height of the one chapiter was five cubits, with network and pomegranates upon the chapiter round about, all of brass: and the second pillar also had like unto these, and pomegranates.
23 Yevuboɖa blaasiekɛ-vɔ-ade le axawo dzi, eye esiwo katã wolɔ̃ ƒo xlã sɔtiawo la le alafa ɖeka.
And there were ninety and six pomegranates on the sides; all the pomegranates were an hundred upon the network round about.
24 Aʋafia la ɖe aboyo nunɔlagã Seraya, eƒe kpeɖeŋutɔ, Zefania kple agbonudzɔla etɔ̃awo.
And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the door:
25 Ekplɔ asrafo siwo gale aʋa wɔm la ƒe amegã kple fia ƒe aɖaŋuɖola adre, le ame siwo gasusɔ ɖe dua me la dome dzoe. Egakplɔ agbalẽŋlɔla si nye dɔnunɔlagã si dia amewo dea asrafodɔ me kple eŋutime blaade siwo ŋu wòke ɖo le dua me la hã dzoe.
and out of the city he took an officer that was set over the men of war; and seven men of them that saw the king’s face, which were found in the city; and the scribe of the captain of the host, who mustered the people of the land; and threescore men of the people of the land, that were found in the midst of the city.
26 Aʋafia Nebuzaradan kplɔ wo yi na Babilonia fia le Ribla.
And Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
27 Le Ribla, le Hamatnyigba dzi, afi ma fia la na wowu wo ɖo. Ale Yuda yi aboyo me, hedzo le eƒe denyigba dzi.
And the king of Babylon smote them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his land.
28 Esia nye ame siwo Nebukadnezar kplɔ yi aboyo mee la ƒe xexlẽme: Le eƒe ƒe adrelia me, Yudatɔwo, ame akpe etɔ̃ kple blaeve-vɔ-etɔ̃;
This is the people whom Nebuchadrezzar carried away captive: in the seventh year three thousand Jews and three and twenty:
29 Le Nebukadnezar ƒe ƒe wuienyilia me, Yerusalemtɔ alafa enyi kple blaetɔ̃-vɔ-eve;
in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar he carried away captive from Jerusalem eight hundred thirty and two persons:
30 Le eƒe ƒe blaeve-vɔ-etɔ̃lia me, Yudatɔ alafa adre blaene-vɔ-atɔ̃, ame siwo aʋafia Nebuzaradan kplɔ dzoe. Aboyomeyilawo katã le ame akpe ane, alafa ade.
in the three and twentieth year of Nebuchadrezzar Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the Jews seven hundred forty and five persons: all the persons were four thousand and six hundred.
31 Le Yuda fia, Yehoyatsin ƒe aboyomenɔnɔ ƒe ƒe blaetɔ̃-vɔ-adrelia me, le ƒe si me Evil Merodak zu fia le Babilonia la, eɖe Yuda fia Yehoyatsin tso gaxɔ me le ɣleti wuievelia ƒe ŋkeke blaeve-vɔ-atɔ̃lia dzi.
And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the five and twentieth day of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon, in the [first] year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought him forth out of prison;
32 Eƒo nu nɛ lɔlɔ̃tɔe eye wòna bubuteƒe si kɔ wu fia siwo katã li kpli le Babilonia la tɔ.
and he spake kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon.
33 Ale Yehoyatsin ɖe eƒe gaxɔmewu da ɖi, heɖu nu le fia ƒe kplɔ̃ ŋu le eƒe agbemeŋkekewo katã me.
and he changed his prison garments, and did eat bread before him continually all the days of his life.
34 Babilonia fia naa Yehoyatsin ƒe gbe sia gbe nuhiahiãwoe le eƒe agbemeŋkeke mamlɛawo me va se ɖe eƒe kugbe.
and for his allowance, there was a continual allowance given him of the king of Babylon, every day a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
