2 Athamaki 25
1 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, mwaka-inĩ wa kenda wa ũthamaki wa Zedekia, mũthenya wa ikũmi, wa mweri wa ikũmi, Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni agĩthiĩ kũhũũrana na Jerusalemu arĩ na ita rĩake rĩothe. Nake akĩamba hema nja ya itũũra rĩu inene, na agĩaka indo cia kũmũteithia gũtharĩkĩra itũũra mĩena yothe yarĩo.
And in the ninth yeere of his reigne, the tenth moneth and tenth day of the moneth Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel came, he, and all his hoste against Ierusalem, and pitched against it, and they built fortes against it round about it.
2 Narĩo itũũra rĩkĩrigiicĩrio nginya mwaka wa ikũmi na ũmwe wa Mũthamaki Zedekia.
So the citie was besieged vnto the eleueth yeere of King Zedekiah.
3 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya wa kenda wa mweri wa kana, ngʼaragu ĩkĩneneha itũũra-inĩ, o nginya gũkĩaga irio cia kũrĩĩo nĩ andũ.
And the ninth day of the moneth the famine was sore in the citie, so that there was no bread for the people of the lande.
4 Hĩndĩ ĩyo rũthingo rwa itũũra rĩu inene rũkĩmomorwo, nayo mbũtũ yothe ya ita ĩkĩũra ũtukũ ĩgereire kĩhingo-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩarĩ gatagatĩ ga thingo cierĩ hakuhĩ na mũgũnda wa mũthamaki, o na gũtuĩka andũ a Babuloni nĩmarigiicĩirie itũũra rĩu inene. Nayo ĩkĩũra ĩrorete Araba,
Then the citie was broken vp, and all the men of warre fled by night, by the way of the gate, which is betweene two walles that was by the Kings garden: nowe the Caldees were by the citie round about: and the King went by the way of the wildernesse.
5 no mbũtũ ya ita ya Babuloni ĩgĩtengʼeria mũthamaki, ĩkĩmũkinyĩra werũ-inĩ ũrĩa mwaraganu wa Jeriko. Thigari ciake ciothe nĩciamũranĩtio nake na ikahurunjũka.
But the armie of the Caldees pursued after the King, and tooke him in the desertes of Iericho, and all his hoste was scattered from him.
6 Nayo mbũtũ ya ita ĩkĩnyiita mũthamaki ũcio, na agĩtwarwo kũrĩ mũthamaki wa Babuloni kũu Ribila kũrĩa aatuĩrĩirwo ciira.
Then they tooke the King, and caried him vp to the King of Babel to Riblah, where they gaue iudgement vpon him.
7 Makĩũraga ariũ a Zedekia o hau mbere yake, magĩcooka makĩmũkũũra maitho, makĩmuoha na bĩngũ cia gĩcango, na makĩmũtwara Babuloni.
And they slew the sonnes of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bounde him in chaines, and caried him to Babel.
8 Mũthenya wa mũgwanja wa mweri wa ĩtano mwaka-inĩ wa ikũmi na kenda wa Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni, Nebuzaradani mũnene wa arangĩri a mũthamaki, ndungata nene ya mũthamaki wa Babuloni, agĩũka Jerusalemu.
And in the fift moneth, and seuenth day of the moneth, which was the nineteenth yere of King Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel, came Nebuzar-adan chiefe stewarde and seruaunt of the King of Babel, to Ierusalem,
9 Agĩcina hekarũ ya Jehova, na nyũmba ya ũthamaki, o na nyũmba ciothe cia Jerusalemu. Agĩcina nyũmba yothe yarĩ ya bata.
And burnt the house of the Lord, and the Kings house, and all the houses of Ierusalem, and all the great houses burnt he with fire.
10 Nayo mbũtũ yothe ya ita ya Babuloni, ĩtongoretio nĩ mũnene wa arangĩri a mũthamaki ĩkĩmomora thingo iria ciathiũrũrũkĩirie Jerusalemu.
And all the armie of the Caldees that were with the chiefe stewarde, brake downe the walles of Ierusalem round about.
11 Nebuzaradani mũnene wa arangĩri nĩathaamirie andũ arĩa othe maatigaire kũu itũũra-inĩ inene, hamwe na kĩrĩndĩ kĩu kĩngĩ, na arĩa othe maathiĩte kũrĩ mũthamaki wa Babuloni.
And the rest of the people that were left in the citie, and those that were fled and fallen to the King of Babel, with the remnant of the multitude, did Nebuzar-adan chiefe steward carie away captiue.
12 No mũnene ũcio wa ita agĩtigia andũ amwe a arĩa athĩĩni mũno a bũrũri ũcio, nĩguo marutage wĩra mĩgũnda-inĩ ya mĩthabibũ na mĩgũnda-inĩ ĩrĩa ĩngĩ.
But the chiefe steward left of the poore of the land to dresse the vines, and to till the land.
13 Andũ a Babuloni nĩmoinangire itugĩ cia gĩcango, na metha cia kũigĩrĩra indo, na Karia ga gĩcango, iria ciarĩ hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova, na magĩkuua icango icio magĩcitwara Babuloni.
Also the pillars of brasse that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the brasen Sea that was in the house of the Lord, did the Caldees breake, and caried the brasse of them to Babel.
14 Ningĩ magĩkuua nyũngũ, na icakũri, na magathĩ ma gũtinia ndaambĩ, na mbakũri, na indo ciothe cia icango iria ciahũthagĩrwo wĩra-inĩ wa hekarũ, magĩthiĩ nacio.
The pots also and the besomes, and the instruments of musike, and the incense dishes, and al the vessels of brasse that they ministred in, tooke they away.
15 Mũnene ũcio wa thigari cia mũthamaki nĩakuuire ngĩo cia mwaki na mbakũri cia kũminjaminjĩria, iria ciothe ciathondeketwo na thahabu therie kana betha.
And the asshe pannes, and the basens, and all that was of gold, and that was of siluer, tooke the chiefe steward away,
16 Nakĩo gĩcango kuuma itugĩ iria igĩrĩ, na gĩa Karia, na kĩa makaari marĩa Solomoni aakĩte marĩ ma hekarũ ya Jehova, gĩtingĩathimĩkire nĩ kũingĩha.
With the two pillars, one Sea and the bases, which Salomon had made for the house of the Lord: the brasse of all these vessels was without weight.
17 Gĩtugĩ o kĩmwe kĩarĩ kĩa ũraihu wa buti mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na mũgwanja. Nakĩo kĩongo gĩakĩo kĩrĩa kĩarĩ igũrũ rĩa gĩtugĩ kĩmwe gĩacio kĩarĩ kĩa buti inya na nuthu kũraiha na igũrũ, na kĩagemetio na gĩgathiũrũrũkĩrio na mũkwa na makomamanga ma gĩcango. Gĩtugĩ kĩu kĩngĩ na mũkwa wakĩo nĩkĩahaanaine na kĩu kĩngĩ.
The height of the one pillar was eighteene cubits, and the chapiter thereon was brasse, and the height of the chapiter was with networke three cubites, and pomegranates vpon the chapiter rounde about, all of brasse: and likewise was the second pillar with the networke.
18 Mũnene ũcio wa arangĩri nĩanyiitire Seraia mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, na Zefania ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai wa keerĩ, na arangĩri arĩa atatũ maarangagĩra mĩrango.
And the chiefe steward tooke Seraiah the chiefe Priest, and Zephaniah the second Priest, and the three keepers of the doore.
19 Harĩ arĩa angĩ maatigaire kũu itũũra-inĩ inene, akĩnyiita mũnene ũrĩa warũgamĩrĩire andũ a mbaara, na andũ atano arĩa mataaraga mũthamaki. Ningĩ agĩkuua mwandĩki-marũa ũrĩa mũnene na nowe warĩ mũrori mũnene wa wandĩkithia wa andũ a bũrũri ũcio, na andũ ake mĩrongo ĩtandatũ arĩa maakorirwo itũũra-inĩ rĩu inene.
And out of the citie hee tooke an Eunuch that had the ouersight of the men of warre, and fiue men of them that were in the Kinges presence, which were founde in the citie, and Sopher captaine of the hoste, who mustred the people of the lande, and threescore men of the people of the lande, that were founde in the citie.
20 Nebuzaradani ũcio mũnene wa arangĩri akĩmakuua othe, akĩmatwara kũrĩ mũthamaki wa Babuloni kũu Ribila.
And Nebuzar-adan the chiefe stewarde tooke them, and brought them to the King of Babel to Riblah.
21 Nake mũthamaki wa Babuloni akĩmooragithĩria kũu Ribila, bũrũri wa Hamathu. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Juda magĩtwarwo ithaamĩrio, kũraya na bũrũri wao.
And the King of Babel smote them, and slew them at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Iudah was caried away captiue out of his owne land.
22 Nebukadinezaru mũthamaki wa Babuloni agĩthuura Gedalia mũrũ wa Ahikamu, mũrũ wa Shafani akĩmũtua mũrori wa andũ arĩa maatigirwo Juda.
Howbeit there remained people in the land of Iudah, whom Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel left, and made Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam the sonne of Shaphan ruler ouer them.
23 Rĩrĩa anene a mbũtũ cia ita othe na andũ ao maaiguire atĩ mũthamaki wa Babuloni nĩathuurĩte Gedalia atuĩke barũthi, magĩthiĩ kũrĩ Gedalia kũu Mizipa, nao nĩo, Ishumaeli mũrũ wa Nethania, na Johanani mũrũ wa Karea, na Seraia mũrũ wa Tanihumethu ũrĩa Mũnetofathi, na Jaazania mũrũ wa Mũmaakathi, na andũ ao.
Then when all the captaines of the host and their men heard, that the king of Babel had made Gedaliah gouernour, they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, to wit, Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah, and Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and Seraiah the sonne of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Iaazaniah the sonne of Maachathi, they and their men.
24 Gedalia akĩĩhĩta mwĩhĩtwa wa kũmoomĩrĩria hamwe na andũ ao, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Tigai gwĩtigĩra anene a Babuloni. Ikarai bũrũri-inĩ na mũtungatagĩre mũthamaki wa Babuloni, na nĩmũgũikara wega.”
And Gedaliah sware to them, and to their men, and sayd vnto them, Feare not to be the seruants of the Caldees: dwell in the land, and serue the King of Babel, and ye shalbe well.
25 No rĩrĩ, mweri-inĩ wa mũgwanja, Ishumaeli mũrũ wa Nethania, mũrũ wa Elishama ũrĩa warĩ wa thakame ya ũthamaki, agĩũka na andũ ikũmi, akĩũraga Gedalia o hamwe na andũ a Juda, na andũ a Babuloni arĩa maarĩ nake kũu Mizipa.
But in the seuenth moneth Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah the sonne of Elishama of the Kings seede, came, and ten men with him, and smote Gedaliah, and he died, and so did he the Iewes, and the Caldees that were with him at Mizpah.
26 Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo andũ othe kuuma ũrĩa mũnini mũno nginya ũrĩa mũnene mũno, hamwe na atongoria a mbũtũ cia ita, makĩũrĩra Misiri nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtigĩra andũ a Babuloni.
Then all ye people both small and great, and the captaines of the armie arose, and came to Egypt: for they were afraide of the Caldees.
27 Mwaka-inĩ wa mĩrongo ĩtatũ na mũgwanja kuuma rĩrĩa Jehoiakini mũthamaki wa Juda aatwarirwo bũrũri ũngĩ, mwaka-inĩ o ũrĩa Evili-Merodaki aatuĩkire mũthamaki wa Babuloni, nĩ ohorithirie Jehoiakini kuuma njeera, mũthenya wa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na mũgwanja mweri-inĩ wa ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ.
Notwithstanding in the seuen and thirtieth yeere after Iehoiachin King of Iudah was caried away, in the twelft moneth and the seuen and twentieth day of the moneth, Euil-merodach King of Babel in the yeere that hee began to reigne, did lift vp the head of Iehoiachin King of Iudah out of the prison,
28 Akĩmwarĩria na ũhooreri na akĩmũhe gĩtĩ gĩa kũmũtĩĩithia gũkĩra athamaki acio angĩ maarĩ nao kũu Babuloni.
And spake kindly to him, and set his throne aboue the throne of the Kings that were with him in Babel,
29 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehoiakini akĩruta nguo ciake cia njeera, na agĩtũũra arĩĩagĩra metha-inĩ ya mũthamaki matukũ mothe marĩa aatũũrire muoyo.
And changed his prison garments: and he did continually eate bread before him, all the dayes of his life.
30 Mũthamaki ũcio nĩaheaga Jehoiakini indo cia kũmũteithia cia o mũthenya, matukũ mothe marĩa aatũũrire muoyo.
And his portion was a continual portion giuen him by the King, euery day a certaine, all the dayes of his life.
