2 Tantara 36
1 Ary ny vahoaka naka an’ i Joahaza, zanak’ i Josia, ka nampanjaka azy tany Jerosalema handimby an-drainy.
And the people of the land take Jehoahaz son of Josiah and cause him to reign instead of his father in Jerusalem.
2 Telo amby roa-polo taona loahaza, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary telo volana no nanjakany tany Jerosalema.
Jehoahaz [is] a son of twenty-three years in his reigning, and he has reigned three months in Jerusalem,
3 Ary nesorin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Egypta tany Jerosalema izy, sady nampandoaviny sazy talenta volafotsy zato sy talenta volamena iray ny fanjakana.
and the king of Egypt turns him aside in Jerusalem, and fines the land one hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold;
4 Ary ny mpanjakan’ i Egypta nampanjaka an’ i Eliakima, rahalahin’ i Joahaza, tamin’ ny Joda sy Jerosalema, ary ny anarany dia novany hoe Joiakima; ary Joahaza rahalahiny kosa dia nalainy ka nentiny ho any Egypta.
and the king of Egypt causes his brother Eliakim to reign over Judah and Jerusalem, and turns his name to Jehoiakim; and Necho has taken his brother Jehoahaz and brings him to Egypt.
5 Dimy amby roa-polo taona Joiakima, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary iraika ambin’ ny folo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny izy.
Jehoiakim [is] a son of twenty-five years in his reigning, and he has reigned eleven years in Jerusalem, and he does evil in the eyes of his God YHWH;
6 Ary Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, dia niakatra namely azy ka namatotra azy tamin’ ny gadra varahina mba hitondra azy ho any Babylona.
Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has come up against him, and binds him in bronze chains to take him away to Babylon.
7 Ary ny fanaka sasany tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah dia nentin’ i Nebokadnezara ho any Babylona koa ka nataony tao amin’ ny tempoliny tany Babylona.
And Nebuchadnezzar has brought from the vessels of the house of YHWH to Babylon, and puts them in his temple in Babylon.
8 Ary ny tantaran’ i Joiakima sisa sy ny fahavetavetana nataony mbamin’ izay toetoeny rehetra, dia, indro, efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely sy ny Joda izany; ary Joiakina zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
And the rest of the matters of Jehoiakim, and his abominations that he has done, and that which is found against him, behold, they are written on the scroll of the kings of Israel and Judah, and his son Jehoiachin reigns in his stead.
9 Valo taona Joiakina, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary telo volana sy hafoloana no nanjakany tany Jerosalema; ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy.
Jehoiachin [is] a son of eight years in his reigning, and he has reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem, and he does evil in the eyes of YHWH;
10 Ary nony niherina ny taona, dia naniraka Nebokadnezara mpanjaka ka nitondra azy mbamin’ ny fanaka tsara tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah ho any Babylona, dia nampanjaka an’ i Zedekia rahalahin-drainy tamin’ ny Joda sy Jerosalema izy.
and at the turn of the year King Nebuchadnezzar has sent and brings him to Babylon with the desirable vessels of the house of YHWH, and causes his brother Zedekiah to reign over Judah and Jerusalem.
11 Iraika amby roa-polo taona Zedekia, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary iraika ambin’ ny folo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema.
Zedekiah [is] a son of twenty-one years in his reigning, and he has reigned eleven years in Jerusalem;
12 Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny izy, fa tsy nanetry tena teo anatrehan’ i Jeremia mpaminany, izay nilaza ny tenin’ Andriamanitra.
and he does evil in the eyes of his God YHWH, he has not been humbled before Jeremiah the prophet [speaking] from the mouth of YHWH;
13 Ary nikomy tamin’ i Nebokadnezara mpanjaka izay efa nampianiana azy tamin’ Andriamanitra koa izy; ary nanamafy ny hatony sy nanasarotra ny fony izy mba tsy hiverina ho amin’ Andriamanitry ny Isiraely.
and he has also rebelled against King Nebuchadnezzar who had caused him to swear by God, and he hardens his neck and strengthens his heart against turning back to YHWH, God of Israel.
14 Ary ny lehibe rehetra tamin’ ny mpisorona sy ny vahoaka koa nanao izay mahadiso indrindra araka ny fahavetavetana rehetra fanaon’ ny jentilisa ka nandoto ny tranon’ i Jehovah tany Jerosalema izay nohamasininy.
Also, all the heads of the priests and the people have multiplied to commit a trespass according to all the abominations of the nations, and they defile the house of YHWH that He has sanctified in Jerusalem.
15 Kanefa Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany, nampitondra teny ny iraka izay nirahiny ho any aminy; eny, nifoha maraina koa Izy ka naniraka, fa namindra fo tamin’ ny olony sy ny fonenany.
And YHWH, God of their fathers, sends to them by the hand of His messengers—rising early and sending—for He has had pity on His people and on His habitation,
16 Kanjo ny olona nihomehy ireny irak’ Andriamanitra ireny sady nanazimba ny teniny sy namazivazy ny mpaminaniny mandra-pihatry ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah taminy, ka tsy nisy nahavonjy azy.
but they are mocking at the messengers of God, and despising His words, and acting deceitfully with His prophets, until the going up of the fury of YHWH against His people—until there is no healing.
17 Koa nentiny namely azy ny mpanjakan’ ny Kaldeana, izay namono ny zatovony tamin’ ny sabatra tao an-trano fitoerana masìna, ary tsy nisy namindrany fo, na zatovo na virijina, na ny antitra sy ny fotsy volo; fa izy rehetra dia natolony ho eo an-tànany avokoa.
And He causes the king of the Chaldeans to go up against them, and he slays their chosen ones by the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and has had no pity on young man and virgin, old man and very aged—He has given the whole into his hand.
18 Ary ny fanaka rehetra tao an-tranon’ Andriamanitra, na ny vaventy na ny madinika, mbamin’ ny rakitry ny tranon’ i Jehovah ary ny rakitry ny mpanjaka sy ny mpanapaka, ireny rehetra ireny dia nentiny ho any Babylona avokoa.
And all the vessels of the house of God, the great and the small, and the treasures of the house of YHWH, and the treasures of the king and of his princes—he has brought the whole to Babylon.
19 Dia nodorany koa ny tranon’ Andriamanitra, ary noravany ny mandan’ i Jerosalema; ny lapan’ andriana rehetra tao koa dia nodorany tamin’ ny afo, ary ny fanaka tsara rehetra tao nosimbany.
And they burn the house of God, and break down the wall of Jerusalem, and they have burned all its palaces with fire, and all its desirable vessels—to destruction.
20 Ary ny olona sisa tsy matin-tsabatra dia nentiny ho babo tany Babylona, ka tonga mpanompo azy sy ny zanany ireny mandra-panjakan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Persia,
And he removes those left of the sword to Babylon, and they are to him and to his sons for servants, until the reigning of the kingdom of Persia,
21 hanatanterahana ny tenin’ i Jehovah nampilazaina an’ i Jeremia, mandra-panonitry ny tany ny Sabatany; fa tamin’ ny andro rehetra izay nahafoanany dia natsahatra ny tany mba hanonitra ny Sabatany mandra-pahatapitry ny fito-polo taona.
to fulfill the word of YHWH in the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land has enjoyed its Sabbaths; all the days of the desolation it kept Sabbath—to the fullness of seventy years.
22 Ary tamin’ ny taona voalohany nanjakan’ i Kyrosy, mpanjakan’ i Perisa, dia notairin’ i Jehovah ny fanahin’ i Kyrosy mpanjakan’ i Persia, mba hanatanteraka ny tenin’ i Jehovah izay nampilazainy an’ i Jeremia, ka dia nandefa teny eran’ ny fanjakany rehetra izy, sady nataony an-tsoratra koa izany hoe:
And in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, at the completion of the word of YHWH in the mouth of Jeremiah, YHWH has awoken the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, and he causes an intimation to pass over into all his kingdom, and also in writing, saying,
23 Izao no lazain’ i Kyrosy, mpanjakan’ i Persia: Ny fanjakana rehetra ambonin’ ny tany dia efa nomen’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny lanitra, ahy; ary Izy efa nandidy ahy hanao trano ho Azy any Jerosalema, izay any Joda. Koa iza avy moa aminareo rehetra no olony? Jehovah Andriamaniny anie nomba azy, fa aoka hiakatra izy.
“Thus said Cyrus king of Persia: YHWH, God of the heavens, has given all kingdoms of the earth to me, and He has laid a charge on me to build a house for Him in Jerusalem which [is] in Judah; who is among you of all His people? His God YHWH [is] with him, and he goes up!”
