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.
In the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it; and they built forts against it around it.
2 Ary nataony fahirano ny tanàna hatramin’ ny taona fahiraika ambin’ ny folo nanjakan’ i Zedekia mpanjaka.
So the city was besieged 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.
On the ninth day of the fourth month, the famine was severe in the city, so that 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.
Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled 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 around it); and the king went by the way of the Arabah.
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.
But the Chaldean army pursued the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
6 Ary voasambotra ny mpanjaka ka nentina niakatra ho any amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona tao Ribla, ka dia notsaraina tao izy.
Then they captured the king and carried him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah; and they passed judgment on him.
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.
They killed Zedekiah’s sons before his eyes, then put out Zedekiah’s eyes, bound him in fetters, 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,
Now in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, came to 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.
He burned Yahweh’s house, the king’s house, and all the houses of Jerusalem. He burned every great house with fire.
10 Ary ny manda manodidina an’ i Jerosalema dia noravan’ ny miaramilan’ ny Kaldeana rehetra, izay nanaraka ny lehiben’ ny mpiambina.
All the army of the Chaldeans, who were with the captain of the guard, broke down the walls around Jerusalem.
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.
Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive the rest of the people who were left in the city and those who had deserted to the king of Babylon—all the rest of the multitude.
12 Nefa ny olona malahelo dia nisy navelany ihany ho mpamboatra tanim-boaloboka sy ho mpiasa tany.
But the captain of the guard left some of the poorest of the land to work the vineyards and fields.
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.
The Chaldeans broke up the pillars of bronze that were in Yahweh’s house and the bases and the bronze sea that were in Yahweh’s house, and carried the bronze pieces 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.
They took away the pots, the shovels, the snuffers, the spoons, and all the vessels of bronze with which they ministered.
15 Ary nentiny koa ny fitoeran-davenon-jiro sy ny lovia famafazana na ny volamena na ny volafotsy dia samy nentiny avokoa
The captain of the guard took away the fire pans, the basins, that which was of gold, for gold, and that which was of silver, for silver.
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 Yahweh’s house, the bronze of all these vessels was not 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.
The height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits, and a capital of bronze was on it. The height of the capital was three cubits, with network and pomegranates on the capital around it, all of bronze; and the second pillar with its network was like these.
18 Ary ny lehiben’ ny mpiambina nisambotra an’ i Seraia mpisoronabe sy zefania, mpisorona manarakaraka, ary mpiandry varavarana koa telo lahy;
The captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold;
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 an officer who was set over the men of war; and five men of those who saw the king’s face, who were found in the city; and the scribe, 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 city.
20 dia nosamborin’ i Nebozaradana, lehiben’ ny mpiambina, ireo ka nentiny ho any amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona tao Ribla.
Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought 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.
The king of Babylon attacked them and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his 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.
As for the people who were left 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, governor.
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.
Now when all the captains of the forces, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah governor, they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, Johanan the son of Kareah, Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of the Maacathite, 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.
Gedaliah swore to them and to their men, and said to them, “Don’t be afraid because of the servants of the Chaldeans. Dwell 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 in the seventh month, Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the royal offspring came, and ten men with him, and struck Gedaliah so that he died, with 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.
All the people, both small and great, and the captains of the forces arose and came 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.
In the thirty-seventh year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, Evilmerodach king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, released Jehoiachin king of Judah out of 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 throne above the throne of the kings who 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. Jehoiachin ate bread before him continually 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 for his allowance, there was a continual allowance given him from the king, every day a portion, all the days of his life.
