< Jeremia 52 >

1 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.
Zedekiah was twenty-one 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 Nake agĩĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova, o ta ũrĩa Jehoiakimu eekĩte.
He did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
3 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.
For through the anger of the LORD it happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence. Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
4 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.
It happened in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and camped against it; and they built forts against it round about.
5 Narĩo itũũra rĩu inene rĩgĩikara rĩrĩ irigiicĩrie nginya mwaka wa ikũmi na ũmwe wa ũthamaki wa Zedekia.
So the city was besieged to the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
6 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.
In the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was severe in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
7 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,
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 all around; ) and they went toward the Arabah.
8 no mbũtũ ya ita ya Babuloni ĩgĩtengʼeria Mũthamaki Zedekia nginya ĩkĩmũkinyĩra werũ-inĩ ũrĩa mwaraganu wa Jeriko. Thigari ciake ciothe ikĩamũranio nake ikĩhurunjwo.
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 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.
Then they took the king, and carried him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he gave judgment on him.
10 Mũthamaki wa Babuloni arĩ kũu Ribila nĩoragithirie ariũ a Zedekia o hau maitho-inĩ ma ithe wao; agĩcooka akĩũragithia anene othe a Juda.
The king of Babylon killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes: he killed also all the officials of Judah in Riblah.
11 Nĩacookire agĩkũũrithia Zedekia maitho, na akĩmuoha na bĩngũ cia gĩcango, akĩmũtwara Babuloni, na kũu akĩmũikia njeera nginya mũthenya ũrĩa aakuire.
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 until the day of his death.
12 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,
Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, who stood before the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem:
13 agĩcina hekarũ ya Jehova, na nyũmba ya ũthamaki, o na nyũmba ciothe cia Jerusalemu. Ningĩ agĩcina nyũmba o yothe yarĩ ya bata kuo.
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 Nayo mbũtũ yothe ya ita ya Babuloni, ĩtongoretio nĩ mũnene ũcio wa arangĩri a mũthamaki, ĩkĩmomora thingo ciothe iria ciathiũrũrũkĩirie Jerusalemu.
All the army of the Chaldeans, who were with the captain of the guard, broke down all the walls of Jerusalem all around.
15 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.
Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the poorest of the people, and the residue of the people who were left in the city, and those who fell away, who fell to the king of Babylon, and the residue of the multitude.
16 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.
But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poorest of the land to be vineyard keepers and farmers.
17 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.
The Chaldeans broke the pillars of bronze that were in the house of the LORD, and the bases and the bronze sea that were in the house of the LORD in pieces, and carried all their bronze to Babylon.
18 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.
They also took away the pots, the shovels, the snuffers, the basins, the spoons, and all the vessels of bronze with which they ministered.
19 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.
The captain of the guard took away the cups, the fire pans, the basins, the pots, the lampstands, the spoons, and the bowls; that which was of gold, in gold, and that which was of silver, in silver.
20 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.
They took the two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve bronze bulls that were under the sea, and the stands which king Solomon had made for the house of the LORD. The bronze of all these vessels was without weight.
21 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.
As for the pillars, the height of the one pillar was eight feet seven inches; and a line of twenty feet eight inches encircled it; and its thickness was almost three inches. It was hollow.
22 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.
A capital of bronze was on it; and the height of the one capital was eight feet seven inches, with network and pomegranates on the capital all around, all of bronze: and the second pillar also had like these, and pomegranates.
23 Na haarĩ na makomamanga mĩrongo kenda na matandatũ maacuuhĩte mĩena-inĩ; makomamanga mothe marĩa maathiũrũrũkĩirie igũrũ wa magemio macio ma rũgara maarĩ igana rĩmwe.
There were ninety-six pomegranates on the sides; all the pomegranates were one hundred on the network all around.
24 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.
The captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold:
25 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.
and out of the city he took an officer who was set over the men of war; and seven men of those who saw the king's face, who were found in the city; and the scribe of the captain of the army, who mustered the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land, who were found in the midst of the city.
26 Nebuzaradani ũcio mũnene wa arangĩri akĩmakuua othe, akĩmatwarĩra mũthamaki wa Babuloni kũu Ribila.
Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
27 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.
The king of Babylon struck them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his land.
28 Ũyũ nĩguo mũigana wa andũ arĩa Nebukadinezaru aatahire akĩmatwara bũrũri ũngĩ: mwaka-inĩ wa mũgwanja aatahire Ayahudi 3,023;
This is the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away captive: in the seventh year three thousand twenty-three Jews;
29 naguo mwaka wa ikũmi na ĩnana wa ũthamaki wa Nebukadinezaru, agĩtaha andũ 832 kuuma Jerusalemu;
in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar he carried away captive from Jerusalem eight hundred thirty-two persons;
30 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.
in the three and twentieth year of Nebuchadnezzar Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the Jews seven hundred forty-five persons: all the persons were four thousand and six hundred.
31 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.
It happened 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 Awil-Marduk 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 Nĩamwarĩirie na ũhooreri, na akĩmũhe gĩtĩ gĩa kũmũtũgĩria gũkĩra athamaki acio angĩ maarĩ nao kũu Babuloni.
and he spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon,
33 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jekonia akĩruta nguo ciake cia njeera, na agĩtũũra arĩĩanagĩra irio na mũthamaki matukũ mothe marĩa aatũũrire muoyo.
and changed his prison garments. Jehoiachin ate bread before him continually all the days of his life:
34 Mũthamaki ũcio wa Babuloni nĩaheaga Jekonia indo cia kũmũteithia o mũthenya matukũ mothe marĩa aatũũrire muoyo, nginya mũthenya ũrĩa aakuire.
and for his allowance, there was a continual allowance given him by the king of Babylon, every day a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
