< 2 Maũndũ 36 >
1 Na rĩrĩ, andũ a bũrũri ũcio makĩoya Jehoahazu mũriũ wa Josia, makĩmũtua mũthamaki kũu Jerusalemu ithenya rĩa ithe.
Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and they anointed him and made him king in his father's place in Jerusalem.
2 Jehoahazu aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtatũ rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩeri ĩtatũ.
Joahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem.
3 Mũthamaki wa Misiri akĩmweheria ũthamaki-inĩ kũu Jerusalemu na agĩtuĩra Juda igooti rĩa taranda igana rĩmwe cia betha, na taranda ĩmwe ya thahabu.
The king of Egypt deposed him at Jerusalem, and fined the land one hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
4 Mũthamaki wa Misiri agĩtua Eliakimu, mũrũ wa ithe na Jehoahazu, mũthamaki wa gũthamaka Juda na Jerusalemu, na akĩgarũra rĩĩtwa rĩa Eliakimu akĩmũtua Jehoiakimu. No Neko agĩthaamia Jehoahazu mũrũ wa ithe na Jehoiakimu akĩmũtwara Misiri.
The king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and changed his name to Jehoiakim. Neco took Joahaz his brother, and carried him to Egypt.
5 Jehoiakimu aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩtano rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ikũmi na ũmwe. Nĩekire maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova Ngai wake.
Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah his God.
6 Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni akĩmũtharĩkĩra, na akĩmuoha na mĩnyororo ya gĩcango akĩmũtwara Babuloni.
Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
7 Nebukadinezaru ningĩ nĩatwarire indo cia hekarũ ya Jehova kũu Babuloni na agĩciiga thĩinĩ wa hekarũ yake kuo.
Nebuchadnezzar also carried of the vessels of the house of Jehovah to Babylon, and put them in his temple at Babylon.
8 Maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Jehoiakimu, na maũndũ ma magigi marĩa eekire, na maũndũ marĩa mothe oonirwo ahĩtĩtie-rĩ, maandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa athamaki a Isiraeli na a Juda. Nake mũriũ Jehoiakini agĩthamaka ithenya rĩake.
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and his abominations which he did, and that which was found in him, look, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his place.
9 Jehoiakini aarĩ wa mĩaka ikũmi na ĩnana rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩeri ĩtatũ na mĩthenya ikũmi. Nĩekire maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova.
Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah.
10 Ihinda rĩa mahaanda-rĩ, Mũthamaki Nebukadinezaru akĩmũtũmanĩra, akĩrehwo Babuloni hamwe na indo cia goro kuuma hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova, nake agĩtua Zedekia, ithe mũnini wa Jehoiakini, mũthamaki wa gũthamaka Juda na Jerusalemu.
At the return of the year king Nebuchadnezzar sent, and brought him to Babylon, with the goodly vessels of the house of Jehovah, and made Zedekiah his relative king over Judah and Jerusalem.
11 Zedekia aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ũmwe rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, nake agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ikũmi na ũmwe.
Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem:
12 Nĩekire maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova Ngai wake, na ndaigana kwĩnyiihia mbere ya Jeremia ũrĩa mũnabii, ũrĩa waaragia kiugo kĩa Jehova.
and he did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah his God; he did not humble himself before Jeremiah the prophet speaking from the mouth of Jehovah.
13 O na ningĩ nĩaremeire Mũthamaki Nebukadinezaru, o ũrĩa wamwĩhĩtithĩtie na mwĩhĩtwa akĩgwetaga rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai. Akĩũmia kĩongo na akĩũmia ngoro yake, na ndaigana gũcookerera Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli.
He also rebelled against king Nebuchadnezzar, who had made him swear by God: but he stiffened his neck, and hardened his heart against turning to Jehovah, the God of Israel.
14 O na ningĩ-rĩ, atongoria othe a athĩnjĩri-Ngai na andũ nĩmathiire na mbere kwaga wĩhokeku, makĩrũmĩrĩra mĩtugo ĩrĩ magigi ya ndũrĩrĩ, na magathaahagia hekarũ ya Jehova ĩrĩa aamũrĩte kũu Jerusalemu.
Moreover all the chiefs of the priests, and the people, trespassed very greatly after all the abominations of the nations; and they polluted the house of Jehovah which he had made holy in Jerusalem.
15 Jehova, Ngai wa maithe mao, akĩmatũmĩra ndũmĩrĩri na tũnua twa atũmwo ake rĩngĩ na rĩngĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩaiguagĩra andũ ake tha, o na gĩikaro gĩake.
Jehovah, the God of their fathers, sent to them by his messengers, rising up early and sending, because he had compassion on his people, and on his dwelling place:
16 No-o makĩnyũrũria andũ acio maatũmĩtwo nĩ Ngai, makĩmenereria ciugo ciake, na makĩnyarara anabii ake, o nginya marakara ma Jehova makĩarahũkĩra andũ ake na gũkĩaga kĩhonia.
but they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and scoffed at his prophets, until the wrath of Jehovah arose against his people, until there was no remedy.
17 Akĩmarehithĩria mũthamaki wa andũ a Babuloni amokĩrĩre, ũrĩa woragĩire andũ ao ethĩ na rũhiũ rwa njora kũu nyũmba-inĩ ĩrĩa nyamũre, na ndaigana kũhonokia mwanake, kana mũirĩtu, kana mũndũ mũkũrũ, o na kana ũrĩa mũkũrũ akahocerera. Ngai akĩneana andũ acio othe kũrĩ Nebukadinezaru.
Therefore he brought on them the king of the Chaldeans, who killed their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion on young man or virgin, old man or gray-headed: he gave them all into his hand.
18 Agĩkuua indo kuuma hekarũ-inĩ ya Ngai, agĩcitwara Babuloni, ciothe iria nene na iria nini, na igĩĩna cia hekarũ ya Jehova, o na igĩĩna cia mũthamaki o na cia anene ake.
All the vessels of God's house, great and small, and the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and the treasures of the king, and of his officials, all these he brought to Babylon.
19 Ningĩ magĩcina hekarũ ya Ngai na makĩmomora rũthingo rwa Jerusalemu; magĩcina nyũmba ciothe cia ũthamaki, o na makĩananga indo ciothe cia bata iria ciarĩ kuo.
They burnt God's house, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt all its palaces with fire, and destroyed all the goodly vessels of it.
20 Matigari ma andũ arĩa maahonokire kũũragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora-rĩ, Nebukadinezaru akĩmatwara Babuloni, nao magĩtuĩka ndungata ciake na cia ariũ ake, o nginya rĩrĩa ũthamaki wa Perisia wacookire gũthamaka.
He carried those who had escaped from the sword away to Babylon; and they were servants to him and his sons until the reign of the kingdom of Persia:
21 Bũrũri ũgĩkĩgĩa na ũhurũko wa Thabatũ ciaguo; ũkĩhurũka hĩndĩ ĩyo yothe wakirĩte ihooru, nginya mĩaka mĩrongo mũgwanja ĩgĩthira, nĩguo kiugo kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa kĩarĩtio nĩ Jeremia kĩhiinge.
to fulfill the word of Jehovah by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed its Sabbaths. As long as it lay desolate it kept Sabbath, to fulfill seventy years.
22 Mwaka wa mbere wa Kurusu mũthamaki wa Perisia, nĩguo kiugo kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa kĩarĩtio nĩ Jeremia kĩhiinge-rĩ, Jehova akĩarahũra ngoro ya Kurusu mũthamaki wa Perisia aanĩrĩrithie kũrĩa guothe aathamakaga, na andĩke atĩrĩ:
Now in the first year of Koresh king of Persia, that the word of Jehovah by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, Jehovah stirred up the spirit of Koresh king of Persia, so that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying,
23 “Kurusu, mũthamaki wa Perisia, oiga ũũ, “‘Jehova, Ngai wa igũrũ, nĩaheete mothamaki mothe ma thĩ, na nĩanyamũrĩte ndĩmwakĩre hekarũ kũu Jerusalemu bũrũri wa Juda. Mũndũ wake o na ũrĩkũ ũrĩ thĩinĩ wanyu, Jehova Ngai wake aroikara hamwe nake, rĩu no aambate athiĩ kuo.’”
"Thus says Koresh king of Persia, 'Jehovah, the God of heaven, has given all the kingdoms of the earth to me; and he has commanded me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whoever there is among you of all his people, Jehovah his God be with him, and let him go up.'"
