And he took up arms against King Nebuchadnezzar, though he had made him take an oath by God; but he made his neck stiff and his heart hard, turning away from the Lord, the God of Israel.

And more than this, all the great men of Judah and the priests and the people made their sin great, turning to all the disgusting ways of the nations; and they made unclean the house of the Lord which he had made holy in Jerusalem.

So he sent against them the king of the Chaldaeans, who put their young men to death with the sword in the house of their holy place, and had no pity for any, young man or virgin, old man or white-haired: God gave them all into his hands.

And all the vessels of the house of God, great and small, and the stored wealth of the Lord's house and the wealth of the king and his chiefs, he took away to Babylon.

And the house of God was burned and the wall of Jerusalem broken down; all its great houses were burned with fire and all its beautiful vessels given up to destruction.

And all who had not come to death by the sword he took away prisoners to Babylon; and they became servants to him and to his sons till the kingdom of Persia came to power:
21 hampañenefañe ty tsara’ Iehovà am-palie’ Iirmeày ampara’ te navahañe amy taney o Sabata’eo; amy te, ie nangoakoake, ro nañambeñe o Sabata’eo, nañeneke ty fitom-polo taoñe.
So that the words of the Lord, which he said by the mouth of Jeremiah, might come true, till the land had had pleasure in her Sabbaths; for as long as she was waste the land kept the Sabbath, till seventy years were complete.
22 Aa ie amy taom-baloha’ i Korese, mpanjaka’ i Parasey, hampañeneke i tsara’ Iehovà am-palie’ Iirmeàiy, le trinobo’ Iehovà ty arofo’ i Korese mpanjaka’ i Parase, hampitsitsihe’e am-pifehea’e ty tsei-valo, mbore pinate’e an-tsokitse ty hoe:
Now in the first year of Cyrus, king of Persia, in order that the words which the Lord had said by the mouth of Jeremiah might come true, the spirit of Cyrus, king of Persia, was moved by the Lord, and he made a public statement and had it given out through all his kingdom and put in writing, saying,
23 Hoe t’i Korese, mpanjaka’ i Parase: Fa natolo’ Iehovà, Andrianañaharen-dikerañe ahy, ze hene fifehea’ ty tane toy; vaho nafanto’e amako ty handranjiañ’ aze anjomba e Ierosalaime e Iehodà ao. Aa ndra ia ia ty eo am’ondati’eo—ho ama’e abey t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’e—ehe te hionjomb’eo.
Cyrus, king of Persia, has said, All the kingdoms of the earth have been given to me by the Lord, the God of heaven; and he has made me responsible for building a house for him in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whoever there is among you of all his people, may the Lord his God be with him and let him go up.
