2 Sarakuna 25
1 A rana ta goma ga wata na goma, a shekara ta tara ta mulkin Zedekiya ne Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon tare da dukan rundunan yaƙinsa, ya tasam wa Urushalima. Ya yi sansani a bayan birnin, ya kewaye ta da shirin yaƙi.
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 king of Babylon came, he, and all his army, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it; and they built forts against it on all sides.
2 Haka birnin ta kasance a kewaye har shekara ta goma sha ɗaya ta mulkin Zedekiya.
And the city was besieged to the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
3 A rana ta tara ta watan huɗu, lokacin da yunwa ta yi tsanani a birnin, babu kuma abinci domin mutane su ci.
And on the ninth [day] of the [fourth] month the famine prevailed in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the land.
4 Sai aka huda katanga sa’an nan dukan sojoji suka tsere da dare a ƙofa tsakanin katanga biyu da suke kusa da lambun sarki, ko da yake Babiloniyawa sun kewaye birnin. Suka tsere suka nufi Araba.
And the city was broken up, and all the men of war [fled] by night by the way of the gate between two walls, which [is] by the king's garden: (now the Chaldees [were] against the city on all sides: ) and [the king] went the way towards the plain.
5 Amma sojojin Babiloniyawa suka bi sarki, suka cin masa a filayen Yeriko. Dukan sojojinsa kuwa suka rabu da shi suka watse.
And the army of the Chaldees pursued the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all his army were scattered from him.
6 Aka kama shi, aka kai shi gaban sarkin Babilon a Ribla, inda aka yanke masa hukunci.
So they took the king, and brought him to the king of Babylon to Riblah; and they gave judgment upon him.
7 Suka kashe’ya’yan Zedekiya a gabansa, sa’an nan aka ƙwaƙule idanunsa. Suka daure shi da sarƙar tagulla, suka kai shi Babilon.
And they slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him with fetters of brass, and carried him to Babylon.
8 A rana ta bakwai na watan biyar, wadda ta zama shekara ta goma sha tara ta mulkin Sarki Nebukadnezzar na Babilon, Nebuzaradan, babban hafsan matsaran sarki, kuma bafadan sarkin Babilon, ya zo Urushalima
And in the fifth month, on the seventh [day] of the month, which [is] the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzar-adan, captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, to Jerusalem:
9 Ya cinna wa haikalin Ubangiji wuta, da fadan sarki, da kuma dukan gidajen Urushalima. Ya kuma ƙone duk wani gini mai muhimmanci.
And he burnt the house of the LORD, and the king's house, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and every great [man's] house he burnt with fire.
10 Dukan mayaƙan Babilon a ƙarƙashin umarnin babban hafsan matsaran sarki, suka rushe katangar Urushalima.
And all the army of the Chaldees, that [were with] the captain of the guard, broke down the walls of Jerusalem on all sides.
11 Nebuzaradan babban hafsan matsaran, ya kwashi waɗanda suka rage a cikin birnin, tare da sauran jama’a, da waɗanda suka miƙa kansu ga sarkin Babilon, ya kai su bauta.
Now the rest of the people [that were] left in the city, and the fugitives that fell away to the king of Babylon, with the remnant of the multitude, did Nebuzar-adan the captain of the guard carry away.
12 Amma hafsan ya bar waɗansu daga cikin mafiya talauci na ƙasar don su yi aiki a lambunan inabi da kuma gonaki.
But the captain of the guard left of the poor of the land [to be] vine-dressers and husbandmen.
13 Babiloniyawan kuma suka sassare ginshiƙan tagulla, da wuraren zama da za a iya matsar da su, da ƙaton kwano mai suna Teku na tagulla da yake a haikalin Ubangiji, suka kwashe tagullan zuwa Babilon.
And the pillars of brass that [were] in the house of the LORD, and the bases, and the brazen sea that [was] in the house of the LORD, did the Chaldees break in pieces, and carried the brass of them to Babylon.
14 Suka ɗauke tukwane, da manyan cokula, da acibalbal, da kwanoni, da dai dukan kayan da aka yi da tagulla don hidima a haikalin Ubangiji.
And the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass with which they ministered, they took away.
15 Babban hafsan matsaran sarkin ya kwashe har da kwanoni na kwashe garwashin wuta da sauran kwanoni, dukansu kuwa ƙeran zinariya ko azurfa tsatsa ne.
And the fire-pans, and the bowls, [and] such things as [were] of gold, [in] gold, and of silver, [in] silver, the captain of the guard took away.
16 Tagullar ginshiƙai biyun nan, da ta ƙaton kwanon da ake ce da shi Teku, da ta dukan amalanke masu riƙe ruwa waɗanda Sarki Solomon ya yi domin haikalin Ubangiji, sun fi gaba a auna su.
The two pillars, one sea, and the bases which Solomon had made for the house of the LORD; the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
17 Tsawon kowane ginshiƙi, ƙafa ashirin da bakwai ne. Hulunan tagullan da suke ƙwalƙwalin kowane ginshiƙi kuma yana da tsawon ƙafa huɗu da rabi. Kuma aka yi masa ado da saƙa da’ya’yan itace kewaye da shi. Bayan ginshiƙin ma haka yake.
The hight of the one pillar [was] eighteen cubits, and the capital upon it [was] brass: and the hight of the capital three cubits; and the wreathen work, and pomegranates upon the capital around, all of brass: and like to these had the second pillar with wreathen work.
18 Babban hafsan ya kwashi Serahiya babban firist, da Zefaniya na biye da shi a girma, da matsara ƙofofi uku.
And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the door:
19 Daga cikin waɗanda suka rage a birnin, ya ɗauki hafsa mai kula da dakaru, da kuma mashawartan sarki guda biyar. Ya kuma tafi da magatakarda wanda yake babban jami’in soja mai ɗaukan dukan jama’an ƙasar, tare da mutanensa guda sittin waɗanda aka samu a birnin.
And out of the city he took an officer that was set over the men of war, and five men of them that were in the king's presence, who were found in the city, and the principal scribe of the host, who mustered the people of the land, and sixty men of the people of the land [that were] found in the city:
20 Nebuzaradan, babban hafsan, ya kwashe su duka ya kawo su wurin sarkin Babilon a Ribla.
And Nebuzar-adan captain of the guard took these, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah:
21 A can Ribla, a ƙasar Hamat, sarkin Babilon ya sa aka kashe su. Haka Yahuda ta tafi bauta daga ƙasarta.
And the king of Babylon smote them, and slew them at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away out of their land.
22 Nebukadnezzar sarkin Babilon ya zaɓi Gedaliya ɗan Ahikam, ɗan Shafan yă zama shugaban sauran mutanen da suka rage a Yahuda.
And [as for] the people that remained in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had left, even over them he made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, ruler.
23 Sa’ad da dukan hafsoshin soja tare da mutanensu suka ji cewa sarkin Babilon ya naɗa Gedaliya a matsayin gwamna, sai suka zo wurin Gedaliya a Mizfa. Mutanen da suka zo su ne, Ishmayel ɗan Netaniya, Yohanan ɗan Kareya, Serahiya ɗan Tanhumet mutumin Netofa, Ya’azaniya ɗan mutumin Ma’aka, tare da mutanensu.
And when all the captains of the armies, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah governor, there came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan the son of Careah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of Maachathite, they and their men.
24 Gedaliya ya tabbatar musu da rantsuwa cewa, “Kada ku ji tsoron jama’ar Babiloniyawa, muddin kun zauna lafiya, kun kuma bauta wa sarkin Babilon, kome zai yi muku kyau.”
And Gedaliah swore to them, and to their men, and said to them, Fear not to be the servants of the Chaldees: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon; and it shall be well with you.
25 Amma a wata na bakwai, sai Ishmayel, ɗan Netaniya, ɗan Elishama, wanda yake daga gidan sarauta, ya zo tare da mutane goma, suka kashe Gedaliya duk da mutanen Yahuda, da na Babilon da suke tare da shi na Mizfa.
But it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the seed royal, came, and ten men with him, and smote Gedaliah, that he died, and the Jews and the Chaldees that were with him at Mizpah.
26 Ganin haka sai dukan mutane, babba da ƙarami, tare da shugabannin sojoji, suka tashi suka gudu zuwa ƙasar Masar, gama suna tsoron mutanen Babilon.
And all the people, both small and great, and the captains of the armies, arose, and came to Egypt: for they were afraid of the Chaldees.
27 A shekara ta talatin da bakwai ta bautar Yehohiyacin sarkin Yahuda, a shekaran da Ewil-Merodak ya ci sarautan Babilon, sai ya saki Yehohiyacin daga jaru, ya sake shi a rana ashirin da bakwai ga watan goma sha biyu.
And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth [day] of the month, [that] Evil-merodach king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;
28 Ya yi wa Yehohiyacin maganar alheri, ya kuma ɗaukaka shi sama da sauran sarakunan da suke tare da shi a Babilon.
And he spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that [were] with him in Babylon;
29 Don haka Yehohiyacin ya tuɓe kayan fursuna. Kowace rana kuwa yakan ci abinci a teburin sarki har iyakar ransa.
And changed his prison garments: and he ate bread continually before him all the days of his life.
30 Sarki kuma ya yanka masa kuɗin da za a dinga ba shi, kowace rana muddin ransa.
And his allowance [was] a continual allowance given him by the king, a daily rate for every day, all the days of his life.
