Jérémie 52
1 Sédécias avait vingt et un ans quand il monta sur le trône, et il régna onze ans à Jérusalem, et sa mère s'appelait Amitaal, et elle était fille de Jérémie, de Lobna.
Zedekiah was one and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
And he did that which was evil in the eyes of Jehovah, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
For, through the anger of Jehovah, it was so with Judah and Jerusalem that at length he cast them forth from his presence. And Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
4 Dans la neuvième année de son règne, le neuvième année, le dixième jour du mois, Nabuchodonosor, roi de Babylone, vint avec toutes ses forces vers Jérusalem, et ils l'entourèrent de retranchements, et ils bâtirent alentour un mur en grandes pierres de taille.
And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it, and built forts against it round about.
5 Et la ville fut investie jusqu'à la onzième année du règne de Sédécias,
And the city was besieged until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
6 Jusqu'au neuvième jour du mois; et alors la famine prévalut dans la cité, et il n'y avait plus de pain pour le peuple de la terre.
And 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 Une brèche fut faite aux murailles; les hommes de guerre sortirent de nuit par le chemin de la porte, entre les remparts et les forts avancés qu'on avait élevés près du jardin du roi; et les Chaldéens entouraient le reste de la ville, et les fugitifs prirent la route d'Araba.
And the city was broken into; and all the men of war fled, and went out of the city by night, by the way of the gate between the two walls, which is by the king's garden, (whilst the Chaldaeans were by the city round about, ) and they went toward the plain.
8 Et l'armée des Chaldéens les poursuivit, et ils prirent le roi auprès de Jéricho, et tous ses serviteurs s'étaient dispersés loin de lui.
But the army of the Chaldaeans pursued the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
9 Les Chaldéens firent donc le roi captif et ils le menèrent au roi de Babylone, à Déblatha, et Nabuchodonosor prononça contre lui son arrêt.
And they took the king, and carried him up to the king of Babylon, to Riblah, in the land of Hamath; where he gave judgment upon him.
10 Et il égorgea les fils de Sédécias sous ses yeux, et il égorgea tous les princes de Juda en Déblatha.
And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes. He slew also all the princes or Judah, in Riblah.
11 Et il arracha les yeux de Sédécias; puis, après l'avoir chargé de chaînes, il l'emmena à Babylone; là il le mit avec les esclaves qui tournaient la meule, jusqu'au jour où il mourut.
And he put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him in chains; and the king of Babylon carried him to Babylon, and put him in prison till the day of his death.
12 Et le cinquième mois, le sixième jour du mois, Nabuzardan, chef des cuisines, qui se tenait devant le roi de Babylone, marcha sur Jérusalem.
And in the fifth month, on the tenth day of the month, (it was the nineteenth year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, ) came Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, one that stood in the presence of the king of Babylon, to Jerusalem.
13 Et il livra aux flammes le temple du Seigneur, le palais du roi et toutes les maisons de la ville, et il mit le feu à toutes les grandes maisons.
And he burned the house of Jehovah, and the king's house; and all the houses at Jerusalem, all the great houses, burned he with fire.
14 Et l'armée des Chaldéens qui étaient avec le chef des cuisines rasa les remparts dont la ville était entourée.
And all the army of the Chaldaeans that was with the captain of the guard brake down all the walls of Jerusalem round about.
And some of the poor of the people, and the rest of the people that were left in the city, and the deserters that had gone over to the king of Babylon, even the remainder of the multitude, did Nebuzaradan, the captain of the guard, carry away captive.
16 Mais Nabuzardan y laissa les restes du peuple, pour être vignerons et laboureurs.
But some of the poor of the land did Nebuzaradan, the captain of the guard, leave for vine-dressers and for husbandmen.
17 Et les Chaldéens brisèrent les colonnes d'airain et leurs bases et la mer d'airain qui étaient dans le temple du Seigneur, et ils en emportèrent le métal à Babylone,
And the pillars of brass that were in the house of Jehovah, and the bases, and the brazen sea that was in the house of Jehovah, the Chaldaeans brake, and carried all the brass of them to Babylon.
18 Avec les couronnes, les coupes et les chaudières, et tous les vases d'airain employés au service du temple.
The caldrons also, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the bowls, and the pans, and all the vessels of brass which were used in ministering, did they take away.
19 Et il prit aussi les cassolettes et les bassins, et les vases à verser de l'huile, et les chandeliers, et les encensoirs, et les coupes, qui étaient les unes d'or, les autres d'argent;
And the basins, and the fire-pans, and the bowls, and the caldrons, and the candlesticks, and the censers, and the cups, and whatever was of gold or silver, did the captain of the guard take away.
20 Et les deux colonnes, et la mer, et les douze bœufs d'airain sous la mer, qu'avait faits le roi Salomon pour le temple du Seigneur. On ne sut pas le poids des vases d'airain.
The two pillars, the sea, and the twelve brazen bulls that were under the bases, which King Solomon made in the house of Jehovah, the brass from all these was beyond weight.
21 Et les colonnes étaient hautes chacune de trente-cinq coudées, et elles étaient, entourées de chaînes longues de douze coudées, épaisses de quatre doigts.
For as to the pillars, eighteen cubits in height was the one pillar, and a line of twelve cubits measured it round, and their thickness was four fingers, being hollow.
22 Et leurs chapiteaux d'airain avaient cinq coudées de haut, et elles étaient entourées d'un filet et de grenades d'airain, et il y avait huit grenades par coudée, et il y avait douze coudées,
And a chapiter of brass was upon them; and the height of one chapiter was five cubits; and there was network with pomegranates upon the chapiter all round, the whole of brass. The second pillar also, and the pomegranates, were like unto these.
23 Et il y avait quatre-vingt-seize grenades sur les côtés, et il y avait en tout cent grenades sur le filet tout autour.
And the pomegranates were ninety and six toward every wind; all the pomegranates were a hundred upon the network round about.
24 Et Nabuzardan prit le premier prêtre, puis le second et les trois gardiens de la voie,
And the captain of the guard took Seraiah, the chief priest, and Zephaniah, the second priest, and the three keepers of the door;
25 Et un eunuque, chef des gens de guerre, et sept hommes distingués se tenant devant le roi, qui se trouvaient dans la ville, et le scribe des armées, chargé des écritures du peuple de la terre, et soixante hommes de la campagne qui se trouvaient dans la ville.
and out of the city he took a eunuch who had charge over the men of war, and seven men of those that were near the king's person, who were found in the city, and the principal scribe of the host, who mustered the people of the land, and threescore men of the people of the land, who were found in the midst of the city;
26 Et Nabuzardan, cuisinier en chef du roi, les prit et les conduisit au roi de Babylone à Déblatha.
these, Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, took, and brought to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
27 Et le roi les fit mettre à mort à Déblatha, en la terre d'Émath.
And the king of Babylon smote them, and put them to death in Riblah in the land of Hamath. Thus was Judah carried away captive out of their own land.
This is the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away captive: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty-three Jews;
in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, he carried away captive from Jerusalem eight hundred and thirty-two persons;
in the three and twentieth year of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuzaradan, 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 En la trente-septième année de la captivité de Joakim, roi de Juda, le douzième mois, le vingt-troisième jour du mois, Ulémadachar, roi de Babylone, l'année même où il monta sur le trône, prit la tête de Joakim et lui coupa les cheveux, et le fit sortir de la maison où il était gardé,
And it came to pass in the thirty and seventh year of the captivity of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-fifth day of the month, that Evil-merodach, the 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 Et il lui parla avec douceur, et il lui donna un trône plus élevé que les trônes des autres rois qui l'entouraient à Babylone.
and spoke kindly to him, and set his seat above the seat of the kings that were with him in Babylon,
33 Et il lui fit changer la robe qu'il avait en prison; et il le fit manger en sa présence tous les jours qu'il vécut.
and changed his prison garments; and he ate bread before him all the days of his life.
34 Et tous les jours, jusqu'à ce qu'il mourût, il régla constamment toute sa dépense.
And a constant allowance was given him by the king of Babylon, a portion every day, until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
