Then the people of Judah chose Josiah’s son Jehoahaz and appointed him as the king in Jerusalem.
2 Yehoyahaz yana da shekara ashirin da uku sa’ad da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi mulki a Urushalima wata uku.
Jehoahaz was 23 years old when he became the king, but he ruled from Jerusalem for [only] three months.
3 Sarkin Masar ya tumɓuke shi a Urushalima, ya tilasta Yahuda su biya haraji talenti ɗari na azurfa da kuma talentin zinariya.
King Neco of Egypt [captured him and] prevented him from ruling any longer. He also forced the people of Judah to pay him a tax of almost four tons of silver and about 75 pounds of gold.

The king of Egypt appointed Jehoahaz’s [younger] brother Eliakim to be the king of Judah. He changed Eliakim’s name to Jehoiakim. After Neco captured Jehoahaz, he took him to Egypt.

A record of the other things that happened while Jehoiakim was ruling, the detestable things that he did, including the evil things that people said that he did, is written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Israel and Judah’. After [he was taken to Babylon], his son Jehoiachin became the king [of Judah].
9 Yehohiyacin yana da shekara goma sha takwas sa’ad da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi mulki a Urushalima wata uku da kwana goma. Ya yi abin da yake mugu a gaban Ubangiji.
Jehoiachin was 18 years old when he became the king [of Judah], and he ruled from Jerusalem for [only] three months and ten days. He did things that Yahweh considers to be evil.

During the spring of the next year, King Nebuchadnezzar sent [soldiers] to bring him to Babylon. They also took to Babylon many valuable things from the temple of Yahweh. Then Nebuchadnezzar appointed Jehoiachin’s uncle, Zedekiah, to be the king of Judah.

12 Ya yi abin da yake mugu a gaban Ubangiji Allahnsa kuma bai ƙasƙantar da kansa a gaban Irmiya annabi, wanda ya yi magana kalmar Ubangiji ba.
He did many things that Yahweh his God considered to be evil. And he did not humble himself when the prophet Jeremiah gave him a message from Yahweh [to warn him].
13 Ya tayar wa Sarki Nebukadnezzar, wanda ya sa ya yi rantsuwa da sunan Allah. Ya zama mai kunnen ƙashi da kuma taurin zuciya, bai kuwa juye ga Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ba.
He would not return to Yahweh, the God that the people of Israel [said that they worshiped]. Zedekiah also rebelled against King Nebuchadnezzar, who had forced him to solemnly promise using God’s name [to be loyal to him]. Zedekiah became very stubborn.
14 Bugu da ƙari, dukan shugabannin firistoci da mutane suka ƙara zama marasa aminci, suna bin dukan abubuwan banƙyama na al’ummai, suka ƙazantar da haikalin Ubangiji, wanda ya tsarkake a Urushalima.
Furthermore, all the leaders of the priests and also the people [of Judah] became more wicked again, doing all the detestable things that the people of the other nations did, and causing the temple in Jerusalem that Yahweh had caused to be holy to become [an] unacceptable [place to worship him].
15 Sai Ubangiji Allah na kakanninsu, ya yi ta aika da magana gare su ta wurin’yan saƙonsa sau da sau, domin ya ji tausayi mutanensa da mazauninsa.
Yahweh, the God whom the ancestors [of the people of Judah belonged to/worshiped], gave messages to his prophets many times, and the prophets told those messages to the people of Judah. Yahweh did that because he pitied his people and did not want his temple to be destroyed.
16 Amma suka yi wa’yan saƙon Allah ba’a, suka rena maganarsa, suka yi wa annabawansa dariyar reni, har sai da fushin Ubangiji ya tasar a kan mutanensa babu makawa.
But the people continually made fun of God’s messengers. They despised God’s messages. They ridiculed his prophets, until finally God became extremely angry with his people, with the result that nothing could stop him [from destroying Judah].
17 Ya bashe su ga sarkin Babiloniyawa wanda ya karkashe samarinsu da takobi a wuri mai tsarki, bai yi juyayin saurayi, ko budurwa, ko tsoho, ko gajiyayye ba. Allah ya bashe su duka ga Nebukadnezzar.
He incited the king of Babylonia to attack [Judah with his army]. They killed the young men with their swords, even in the temple. They did not spare/pity anyone, young men or young women or old people. God enabled the army of Nebuchadnezzar to kill all of them.
18 Nebukadnezzar ya kwashe dukan kayayyaki daga haikalin Allah, babba da ƙarami, da ma’ajin haikalin Ubangiji da kuma ma’ajin sarki da na fadawansa zuwa Babilon.
His soldiers took to Babylon all the things that were used in God’s temple—big things and little things, all the valuable things, and the valuable things that belonged to the king and his officials.
19 Suka cinna wa haikalin Allah wuta, suka rurrushe katangar Urushalima; suka ƙone dukan fada, suka kuma lalace kome mai amfani da yake can.
They burned the temple, and they broke down the wall surrounding Jerusalem. They burned all the palaces [in Jerusalem] and destroyed all the remaining valuable things there.
20 Waɗanda ba a kashe ba kuwa Nebukadnezzar ya kwashe su, ya kai Babilon, suka zama bayinsa da na’ya’yansa maza har zuwa kahuwar mulkin Farisa.
Nebuchadnezzar’s soldiers took to Babylon the remaining people who had not been killed with their swords. Then those people became the king’s slaves and his son’s slaves, until the [army of the] king of Persia conquered [the army of Babylonia].
21 Ƙasar ta more hutun Asabbacinta; a dukan lokacin zamanta kango ta huta, har sai da shekaru saba’in nan suka cika bisa ga maganar Ubangiji da Irmiya ya faɗi.
[Moses had said that every seventh year the people must not plant their fields; they must allow the soil to rest. But the people had not done that. So after the army of Babylonia destroyed Judah, ] the soil was allowed to rest. That continued for 70 years, fulfilling what Yahweh told Jeremiah and what Jeremiah had predicted/prophesied would happen.
22 Don a cika maganar da Ubangiji ya yi ta wurin Irmiya, a shekara farko ta Sairus sarkin Farisa, sai Ubangiji ya motsa zuciyar Sairus na Farisa don yă yi shela a dukan masarautarsa, ya kuma sa shi a rubuce cewa,
During the first year that Cyrus was the king of Persia, in order that what Yahweh told Jeremiah would happen would occur, Yahweh motivated Cyrus to write this and proclaim it throughout his kingdom:
23 “Ga abin da Sairus sarkin Farisa ya ce, “‘Ubangiji Allah na sama, ya ba ni dukan mulkokin duniya, ya kuma naɗa ni in gina masa haikali a Urushalima a Yahuda. Duk wani na mutanensa a cikinku, bari yă haura yă tafi, bari kuma Ubangiji Allahnsa yă kasance tare da shi.’”
“I, Cyrus, the king of Persia, declare that Yahweh, the God [who rules] in heaven, has enabled me to become the ruler of all the kingdoms of this world. And he wants me to [command that my workers] build a temple {a temple be built} for him in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Any of his people living among you people of Persia are allowed to go to Jerusalem. And I will pray that Yahweh will be with them.”
