2 Mpanjaka 25
1 Ary tamin’ ny andro fahafolo tamin’ ny volana fahafolo tamin’ ny taona fahasivy nanjakan’ i Zedekia dia tonga Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, sy ny miaramilany rehetra hamely an’ i Jerosalema indray ka nitoby tandrifiny; ary nanao tilikambo manodidina azy izy.
And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon came, he, and all his host, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it; and they built a mound all around about it.
2 Ary nataony fahirano ny tanàna hatramin’ ny taona fahiraika ambin’ ny folo nanjakan’ i Zedekia mpanjaka.
And the city was put in a state of siege until the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
3 Ary tamin’ ny andro fahasivy tamin’ ny volana fahefatra dia mafy ny mosary tao an-tanàna, fa tsy nisy hanina ho an’ ny olona tompon-tany.
And on the ninth of the month, when the famine prevailed in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the land:
4 Ary nisy voabanga ny tanana, dia nandositra alina ny miaramila rehetra tamin’ ny lalana nankamin’ ny vavahady tanelanelan’ ny manda roa, izay eo anilan’ ny sahan’ ny mpanjaka (fa ny Kaldeana nanodidina ny tanàna), ary ny mpanjaka nandeha tamin’ ny lalana mankeny amin’ ny tani-hay.
The city was broken into, and all the men of war [fled] in the night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king's garden; [while the Chaldeans were all round about the city; ] and the people went the way toward the plain.
5 Ary ny miaramilan’ ny Kaldeana nanenjika ny mpanjaka ka nahatratra azy teny amin’ ny tani-hay any Jeriko; dia nipariaka nandao azy ny miaramilany rehetra.
And the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all his army were scattered from around him.
6 Ary voasambotra ny mpanjaka ka nentina niakatra ho any amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona tao Ribla, ka dia notsaraina tao izy.
And they seized the king, and brought him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah; and they called him to account.
7 Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Zedekia dia novonoiny teo imason-drainy, ary ny mason’ i Zedekia kosa nopotsiriny, dia nafatony tamin’ ny gadra varahina izy ka nentiny nankany Babylona.
And they slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he blinded the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him with fetters of brass, and carried him to Babylon.
8 Ary tamin’ ny andro fahafito tamin’ ny volana fahadimy tamin’ ny taona fahasivy ambin’ ny folo nanjakan’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona dia tonga tany Jerosalema Nebozaradana, lehiben’ ny mpiambina, mpanompon’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona,
And in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, came Nebusaradan, the chief of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, unto Jerusalem:
9 ka nandoro ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka mbamin’ ny trano rehetra tany Jerosalema: ny trano lehibe rehetra dia nodorany tamin’ ny afo avokoa.
And he burnt the house of the Lord, and the king's house; also, all the houses of Jerusalem, and every great man's house burnt he with fire.
10 Ary ny manda manodidina an’ i Jerosalema dia noravan’ ny miaramilan’ ny Kaldeana rehetra, izay nanaraka ny lehiben’ ny mpiambina.
And the walls of Jerusalem round about did all the army of the Chaldeans that were with the captain of the guard tear down.
11 Ary izay olona sisa tao an-tanana sy izay efa nandositra nanatona ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona ary ny vahoaka betsaka sisa dia nentin’ i Neborazadana, lehiben’ ny mpiambina, ho babo avokoa.
And the rest of the people that were left in the city, and the deserters that had run over to the king of Babylon, with the remnant of the multitude, did Nebusaradan the captain of the guard lead away into exile;
12 Nefa ny olona malahelo dia nisy navelany ihany ho mpamboatra tanim-boaloboka sy ho mpiasa tany.
But from the poorest of the land the captain of the guard left some to be vine-dressers and husbandmen.
13 Ary ireo andry varahina teo an-tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny fitoeran-tavin-drano sy ny tavin-drano varahina lehibe izay teo an-tranon’ i Jehovah dia notorotoroin’ ny Kaldeana, ka nentiny ho any Babylona ny varahina.
And the pillars of copper that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the copper sea that was in the house of the Lord, did the Chaldeans break up, and they carried the copper thereof to Babylon.
14 Ary nentiny koa ny vilany fandraofan-davenona sy ny sotron’ afo sy ny antsy sy ny lovia kely ary ny fanaka varahina rehetra izay nenti-nanao fanompoam-pivavahana.
And the pots, and the shovels, and the knives, and the spoons, and all the vessels of copper wherewith they ministered, took they away.
15 Ary nentiny koa ny fitoeran-davenon-jiro sy ny lovia famafazana na ny volamena na ny volafotsy dia samy nentiny avokoa
And the censers, and the bowls, the gold of the golden things, and the silver of the silver things, took the captain of the guard away.
16 ary ny andry roa sy ny tavin-drano lehibe iray ary ireo fitoeran-tavin-drano, izay nataon’ i Solomona ho amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah; ny varahina tamin’ izany fanaka rehetra izany dia tsy hita lanja.
The two pillars, the one sea, and the bases which Solomon had made for the house of the Lord: the copper of all these vessels was too much to be weighed.
17 Valo ambin’ ny folo hakiho ny hahavon’ ny andry iray, ary varahina ny kapitaliny sady telo hakiho ny hahavony; ary varahina avokoa ny harato sy ny ampongabendanitra amin’ ny kapitaliny manodidina; ary tahaka izany koa ny andry faharoa mbamin’ ny harato.
Eighteen cubits was the height of the one pillar, and the capital upon it was copper; and the height of the capital was three cubits; and the wreathed work, and the pomegranates upon the capitals round about, were all of copper: and the same had the second pillar together with the wreathed work.
18 Ary ny lehiben’ ny mpiambina nisambotra an’ i Seraia mpisoronabe sy zefania, mpisorona manarakaraka, ary mpiandry varavarana koa telo lahy;
And the captain of the guard took Serayah the chief-priest, and Zephanyahu the second priest, and the three door-keepers;
19 ary tao an-tanàna no nisamborany ny tandapa anankiray, mpifehy ny miaramila, ary dimy lahy tamin’ izay mpitoetra teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka, izay hita tao an-tanàna, ary ny mpanoratry ny komandin’ ny miaramila, izay mpandamina ny ho miaramila, sy ny olona tompon-tany enim-polo lahy, izay hitany tao an-tanàna;
And out of the city he took one court-officer that was appointed over the men of war, and five men of those that could come into the king's presence, who were found in the city, and the scribe of the chief of the army, who ordered to the army the people of the land, and sixty men of the people of the land that were found in the city:
20 dia nosamborin’ i Nebozaradana, lehiben’ ny mpiambina, ireo ka nentiny ho any amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona tao Ribla.
And Nebusaradan the captain of the guard took these, and conducted them to the king of Babylon to Riblah;
21 Dia novonoin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona tao Ribla any amin’ ny tany Hamata ireo. Toy izany no nitondrana ny Joda ho babo niala tamin’ ny taniny.
And the king of Babylon smote them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Chamath. So did Judah wander away into exile out of their land.
22 Fa ny amin’ ny olona izay sisa tany amin’ ny tanin’ ny Joda, izay navelan’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, dia Gedalia, zanak’ i Ahikama, zanak’ i Safana, no notendreny ho mpanapaka azy.
And as for the people that were left in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had left, he appointed over them Gedalyahu the son of Achikam, the son of Shaphan.
23 Ary nony ren’ ny komandin’ ny miaramila rehetra mbamin’ ny olom-peheziny avy fa Gedalia no notendren’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, ho mpanapaka, dia nankany amin’ i Gedalia tany Mizpa Isimaela, zanak’ i Netania, sy Johanana, zanak’ i Karea, sy Seraia, zanak’ i Tanometa Netofatita, ary Jazania, zanak’ ilay Makatita, dia ireo sy ny olom-peheziny avy.
And when all the captains of the armies, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedalyahu, they came to Gedalyahu to Mizpah; even Ishma'el the son of Nethanyah, and Jochanan the son of Kareach, and Serayah the son of Tanchumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazanyahu the son of a Ma'achathite, they and their men.
24 Ary Gedalia nianiana taminy sy tamin’ ny olom-peheziny ka nanao hoe: Aza matahotra ny amin’ ny mpanompon’ ny Kaldeana, fa mitomoera amin’ ny tany, ary manompoa ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona, fa izany no hahasoa anareo.
And Gedalyahu swore to them, and to their men, and said unto them, Be not afraid of the servants of the Chaldeans: remain in the land, and serve the king of Babylon; and it will be well with you.
25 Ary tamin’ ny volana fahafito, dia avy Isimaela, zanak’ i Netania, zanak’ i Elisama, isan’ ny fianakavian’ ny mpanjaka, mbamin’ ny olona folo lahy koa ka namely an’ i Gedalia, dia nahafaty azy sy ny Jiosy ary ny Kaldeana izay tao aminy tany Mizpa.
But it happened in the seventh month, that there came Ishma'el the son of Nethanyah, the son of Elishama', of the seed royal, and ten men with him, and they smote Gedalyahu, so that he died, also the Jews and the Chaldeans that were with him at Mizpah.
26 Ary niainga ny olona rehetra, na kely na lehibe, mbamin’ ny komandin’ ny miaramila, nankany Egypta, fa natahotra ny Kaldeana izy.
And then arose all the people, from small to great, and the captains of the armies, and went to Egypt; for they were afraid of the Chaldeans.
27 Ary tamin’ ny andro fahafito amby roa-polo tamin’ ny volana faharoa ambin’ ny folo tamin’ ny taona fahafito amby telo-polo taorian’ ny namaboana an’ i Joiakina, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, tamin’ ny taona vao nanjakan’ i Evila-merodaka, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, dia nasandrany hiala tao an-trano-maizina Joiakina, mpanjakan’ ny Joda.
And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoyachin the king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth [day] of the month, that Evil-merodach the king of Babylon in the year that he became king did lift up the head of Jehoyachin the king of Judah out of the prison;
28 Dia nitenenany soa izy, ka ny seza fiandrianany nataony ambony noho ny seza fiandrianan’ ireo mpanjaka namany tao Babylona.
And he spoke kindly to him, and set his chair above the chair of the kings that were with him in Babylon:
29 Ka dia novan’ i Joiakina ny fitafiany fony mbola tao an-trano-maizina; ary nihinan-kanina teo anatrehany mandrakariva izy tamin’ ny andro niainany rehetra.
And changed his prison garments: and he ate bread continually before him all the days of his life.
30 Ary ny hanina nohaniny dia hanina nomena avy amin’ ny mpanjaka araka ny tokony ho anjarany isan’ andro isan’ andro tamin’ ny andro rehetra niainany.
And his allowance was a continual allowance given him by the king, the necessary ration for the day on its day, all the days of his life.
