2 Mpanjaka 24
1 Nionjomb’eo tañ’andro’e t’i Nebokadnetsare, le nimpitoro’e telo taoñe t’Iehoiakime; naho nivalike vaho niola’e,
In his days Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came up, and Joakim became his servant three years: then again he rebelled against him.
2 vaho nirahe’ Iehovà ama’e ty firimboñan-dahindefon-te-Kasdý, naho ty firimboña’ o nte-Arameo naho ty firimboña’ o nte-Moabeo, naho ty firimboña’ o Ana’ i Amoneo; nampihitrife’e am’ Iehoda handrotsak’ aze, ty amy tsara nafe’ Iehovà añamo mpitoro’e mpitokio.
And the Lord sent against him the rovers of the Chaldees, and the rovers of Syria, and the rovers of Moab, and the rovers of the children of Ammon: and he sent them against Juda, to destroy it, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken by his servants the prophets.
3 Toe i lili’ Iehovày ty nivotraha’ izay am’ Iehoda, hanintake iareo tsy hahavazoho’e, ty amo hakeo’ i Menasèo, naho o fitoloña’e iabio,
And this came by the word of the Lord against Juda, to remove them from before him for all the sins of Manasses which he did.
4 naho o lio-maliñe nampiorihe’eo, fa natsafe’e lio-màliñe t’Ierosalaime, ze tsy nimetea’ Iehovà hapoke.
And for the innocent blood that he shed, filling Jerusalem with innocent blood: and therefore the Lord would not be appeased.
5 Aa naho o fitoloña’ Iehoiakime ila’eo, o nanoe’e iabio, tsy fa sinokitse amy bokem-pamoliliañe o mpanjaka’ Iehodaoy hao?
But the rest of the acts of Joakim, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda? And Joakim slept with his fathers:
6 Nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e ao t’Iehoiakime le nandimbe aze nifehe t’Iehoiakine ana’e.
And Joachin his son reigned in his stead.
7 Le tsy nionjo boak’ an-tane’e añe ka ty mpanjaka’ i Mitsraime, amy te tinava’ ty mpanjaka’ i Bavele ze hene hanañam-panjaka’ i Mitsraime boak’ an-Toraha’ i Mitsraime pak’ an-tSaka-Parate añe.
And the king of Egypt came not again any more out of his own country: for the king of Babylon had taken all that had belonged to the king of Egypt, from the river of Egypt, unto the river Euphrates.
8 Ni-folo-taoñe valo’ amby t’Iehoiakine te niorotse nifehe, le nifeleke e Ierosalaime ao telo-volañe. I Nekostà, ana’ i Elnatane, nte-Ierosalaime, ty tahinan-drene’e.
Joachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign, a and he reigned three months in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Nohesta the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
9 Nanao haratiañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà re manahake o fonga satan-droae’eo.
And he did evil before the Lord, according to all that his father had done.
10 Nionjomb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo henane zay o mpitoro’ i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka’ i Baveleo, nañarikatoke i Rovay.
At that time the servants of Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came up against Jerusalem, and the city was surrounded with their forts.
11 Nivotrak’ amy rovay t’i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka’ i Bavele ie fa nañarikatohe’ o mpitoro’eo.
And Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came to the city with his servants to assault it.
12 Niavotse mb’ amy mpanjaka’ i Baveley t’Iehoiakine mpanjaka’ Iehoda, ie naho i rene’e naho o mpitoro’eo naho o ana-dona’eo naho o mpifehe’eo; vaho ninday aze an-drohy an-taom-pifehea’e faha-valo ty mpanjaka’ i Bavele.
And Joachin king of Juda went out to the king of Babylon, he and his mother, and his servants, and his nobles, and his eunuchs: and the king of Babylon received him in the eighth year of his reign.
13 Hene nakare’e o vara añ’ anjomba’ Iehovào naho o vara añ’ anjomba’ i mpanjakaio, le songa pinatepate’e o fanake volamena tsinene’ i Selomò mpanjaka’ Israele an-kivoho’ Iehovào, ty amy tsara’ Iehovày.
And he brought out from thence all the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king’s house: and he cut in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of the Lord, according to the word of the Lord.
14 Le nendese’e an-drohy mb’eo iaby t’Ierosalaime naho o roandria’eo naho o fanalolahi’eo, mpirohy rai-ale, vaho ze hene mpandranjy naho mpanefe, le tsy aman-konka’e naho tsy o rarake am’ ondati’ i taneio avao.
And he carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the valiant men of the army, to the number of ten thousand into captivity: and every artificer and smith: and none were left, but the poor sort of the people of the land.
15 Aa le nendese’e an-drohy mb’e Bavele mb’eo t’Iehoiakine, naho nente’e ty rene’ i mpanjakay naho o valim-panjakao naho o mpifehe’eo vaho o mpiaolo amy taneio boak’ Ierosalaime sikala e Bavele añe an-drohy.
And he carried away Joachin into Babylon, and the king’s mother, and the king’s wives, and his eunuchs: and the judges of the land he carried into captivity from Jerusalem into Babylon.
16 Le o fanalolahy iabio: fito arivo, naho o mpandranjio vaho o mpanefeo, arivo, songa naozatse nahafialy, sindre nasese’ i mpanjaka’ i Baveley an-drohy mb’e Bavele añe.
And all the strong men, seven thousand, and the artificers, and the smiths a thousand, all that were valiant men and fit for war: and the king of Babylon led them captives into Babylon.
17 Nanoe’ i mpanjaka’ i Baveley mpanjaka t’i Matanià, rahalahin-drae’ i Iehoiakine handimbe aze vaho novae’e ho Tsidkià ty tahina’e.
And he appointed Matthanias his uncle in his stead: and called his name Sedecias.
18 Roapolo taoñe raik’ amby t’i Tsidkià te niorotse nifehe; le nifehe folo-taoñe raik’ amby e Ierosalaime ao; i Hamotale, ana’ Iiremeià nte-Libnà, ty tahinan-drene’e.
Sedecias was one and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Amital, the daughter of Jeremias of Lobna.
19 Nanao haratiañe am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà re, hambañe amy nanoe’ Iehoiakime iabiy.
And he did evil before the Lord, according to all that Joakim had done.
20 Toe niatreatre Ierosalaime naho Iehoda ty haviñera’ Iehovà ampara’ te rinoa’e boak’ añ’ atrefa’e eo. Toe niola amy mpanjaka’ i Baveley t’i Tsidkià.
For the Lord was angry against Jerusalem and against Juda, till he cast them out from his face: and Sedecias revolted from the king of Babylon.
