1 Ngezinsuku zokubusa kukaJehoyakhimi uNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni yahlasela ilizwe, uJehoyakhimi wathela kuye okweminyaka emithathu. Kodwa waphinda waguquka wamvukela uNebhukhadineza.
‌ʻI hono ngaahi ʻaho ʻoʻona naʻe ʻalu hake ai ʻa Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea naʻe hoko ʻa Sihoiakimi ko ʻene tamaioʻeiki ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu: pea hili ia naʻa ne toe angatuʻu kiate ia.
2 UThixo wathuma abahlaseli bamaKhaladiya lama-Asiriya lamaBhabhiloni lama-Aramu lamaMowabi, lama-Amoni, amhlasela. Wabathuma ukuchitha uJuda njengelizwi likaThixo alikhuluma ngezinceku zakhe abaphrofethi.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova kiate ia ʻae kautau ʻoe kakai Kalitia mo e kautau ʻoe kakai Silia, mo e kautau ʻoe kakai Moape, mo e kautau ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, pea ne fekauʻi ʻakinautolu ke tauʻi ʻa Siuta, ke fakaʻauha ia, ʻo fakatatau ki he folofola ʻa Sihova ʻaia naʻa ne folofola ai ʻi heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ko e kau palōfita.
3 Ngempela konke lokho kwenzeka koJuda mayelana lomlayo kaThixo ukuze basuswe phambi kwakhe ngenxa yazo zonke izono zikaManase azenzayo,
Ko e moʻoni naʻe hoko ʻae meʻa ni ki Siuta ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova, ke hiki ʻakinautolu mei hono ʻao, koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi angahala ʻa Manase, ʻo fakatatau ki he meʻa kotoa pē naʻa ne fai;
4 langenxa yegazi elachithekayo lingelacala. Ngoba wayegcwalise iJerusalema ngegazi elingelacala njalo uThixo wayengazimiselanga ukuthethelela.
Pea koeʻuhi foki ko e toto māʻoniʻoni naʻa ne lilingi: he naʻa ne fakapito ʻa Selūsalema ʻi he toto māʻoniʻoni; ʻaia naʻe ʻikai finangalo ʻa Sihova ke fakamolemole.
5 Ezinye izehlakalo zembali kaJehoyakhimi azilotshwanga yini egwalweni lwembali yamakhosi akoJuda na?
Pea ko e toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Sihoiakimi, mo ia kotoa pē naʻa ne fai ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Siuta?
6 Wafa uJehoyakhimi waya ekuphumuleni kubokhokho bakhe. UJehoyakhini indodana yakhe yathatha ubukhosi.
Pea naʻe mohe ʻa Sihoiakimi mo ʻene ngaahi tamai: pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe hono foha ko Sihoiakini.
7 Inkosi yaseGibhithe ayizange ihlasele futhi iphuma elizweni layo, ngenxa yokuthi inkosi yaseBhabhiloni yayisithethe ingxenye yelizwe layo enkulu kakhulu, kusukela eSihotsheni seGibhithe kuze kuyefika eMfuleni uYufrathe.
Pea naʻe ʻikai toe haʻu ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite mei hono fonua: he naʻe maʻu ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻaia kotoa pē naʻe ʻoe tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, mei he vaitafe ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻo aʻu ki he vaitafe ko ʻIufaletesi.
8 UJehoyakhini wayeleminyaka elitshumi lasificaminwembili esiba yinkosi, njalo wabusa eJerusalema okwezinyanga ezintathu. Ibizo likanina lalinguNehushita indodakazi ka-Elinathani; evela eJerusalema.
Naʻe hongofulu ma valu taʻu ʻae motuʻa ʻo Sihoiakini ʻi heʻene kamata ʻene pule, pea naʻe pule ia ʻi Selūsalema ʻi he māhina ʻe tolu. Pea ko e hingoa ʻo ʻene faʻē ko Nehusita, ko e ʻofefine ʻo Elinatani ʻo Selūsalema.
9 Wenza ububi phambi kukaThixo, njengalokhu okwakwenziwe nguyise.
Pea naʻe fai ʻe ia ʻae kovi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻo hangē ko ia kotoa pē naʻe fai ʻe heʻene tamai.
10 Ngalesosikhathi amabutho kaNebhukhadineza inkosi yaseBhabhiloni afika eJerusalema, awuvimbezela umuzi,
ʻI he kuonga ko ia naʻe haʻu ai ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone ke tauʻi ʻa Selūsalema, pea naʻe kāpui ʻae kolo ʻaki ʻae tau.
11 uNebhukhadineza yena ngokwakhe wazafika amabutho akhe esewuvimbezele umuzi.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone ke tauʻi ʻae kolo, pea naʻe kāpui ia ʻe heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki,
12 UJehoyakhini inkosi yakoJuda wazinikela enkosini yaseBhabhiloni, yena lonina lezinceku zakhe kanye labathenwa bakhe. Ngomnyaka wesificaminwembili wokubusa kwenkosi yaseBhabhiloni uNebhukhadineza wathumba uJehoyakhini.
Pea naʻe ʻalu kituʻa ʻa Sihoiakini ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ʻaia mo ʻene faʻē, mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, mo ʻene houʻeiki, mo ʻene kau matāpule: pea naʻe puke ia ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻi hono valu taʻu ʻo ʻene pule.
13 Njengelizwi likaThixo, uNebhukhadineza wabutha yonke inotho yasethempelini likaThixo lenotho yesigodlo senkosi, wabutha zonke izitsha zegolide ezazisethempelini likaThixo, ezazenziwe nguSolomoni inkosi yako-Israyeli, njengokutsho kukaThixo.
Pea naʻa ne fetuku mei ai ʻae ngaahi koloa kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova, mo e ngaahi koloa mei he fale ʻoe tuʻi, pea naʻa ne tuʻutuʻu ke iiki ʻae ngaahi ipu koula ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻe Solomone ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi he faletapu ʻo Sihova, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova.
14 Wathumba abaseJerusalema bonke: izikhulu zonke, lawo wonke amadoda empi lazozonke izingcitshi ezileminwe, abantu abazinkulungwane ezilitshumi. Kwasala abantukazana kuphela elizweni.
Pea naʻa ne fetuku ʻo ʻave ʻae kakai Selūsalema kotoa pē mo e ngaahi houʻeiki kotoa pē, mo e kau tangata toʻa kotoa pē, ʻio, ko e pōpula ʻe tokotaha mano, mo e kau tangata tufunga mo e kau tufunga ukamea: naʻe ʻikai toe ha [kakai], ka ko e kakai masiva ʻaupito ʻoe fonua.
15 UNebhukhadineza wamthatha uJehoyakhini wayamgqilaza eBhabhiloni. Wathumba njalo eJerusalema unina wenkosi labafazi bayo lezikhulu zayo lamadoda aziwayo elizweni.
Pea naʻa ne ʻave ʻa Sihoiakini ki Papilone, mo e faʻē ʻae tuʻi, mo e ngaahi uaifi ʻoe tuʻi, mo ʻene kau matāpule, mo e kau mālohi ʻoe fonua, naʻa ne fetuku pōpula ʻakinautolu mei Selūsalema ki Papilone.
16 Inkosi yaseBhabhiloni yathumbela eBhabhiloni wonke amadoda angamaqhawe, azinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa, aqinileyo ayengaphuma impi, kanye lezingcitshi ezileminwe eziyinkulungwane.
Pea ko e kau tangata toʻa kotoa pē, ʻio, ʻae toko fitu afe, mo e kau tufunga kehekehe, mo e kau tuki ukamea, ko e toko taha afe, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe mālohi mo poto ʻi he tau, naʻe fetuku pōpula ʻakinautolu ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ki Papilone.
17 Inkosi yaseBhabhiloni yabeka uMathaniya isinini sikaJehoyakhini waba yinkosi esikhundleni sikaJehoyakhini, yasimupha ibizo elitsha lokuthi nguZedekhiya.
Pea naʻe fakanofo ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻa Matania ko e tokoua ʻo ʻene tamai ke tuʻi ia ko hono fetongi, pea naʻa ne liliu hono hingoa ko Setikia.
18 UZedekhiya waba yinkosi eleminyaka engamatshumi amabili lanye, njalo wabusa eJerusalema okweminyaka elitshumi lanye. Ibizo likanina lalinguHamuthali indodakazi kaJeremiya, waseLibhina.
Naʻe uofulu ma taha ʻae taʻu ʻae motuʻa ʻo Setikia ʻi heʻene kamata ʻene pule, pea naʻe pule ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma taha ʻi Selūsalema. Pea ko e hingoa ʻo ʻene faʻē ko Hamutali, ko e ʻofefine ia ʻo Selemaia ʻo Lipina.
19 Wenza okubi emehlweni kaThixo, njengalokho okwakwenziwe nguJehoyakhimi.
Pea naʻe fai kovi ʻe ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻo hangē ko ia kotoa pē naʻe fai ʻe Sihoiakimi.
20 Kwakungenxa yokuthukuthela kukaThixo ukuze kwenzakale konke lokhu eJerusalema lakoJuda, njalo ekucineni kwabangela ukuthi uThixo abachithe. Ngalokho uZedekhiya wayihlamukela inkosi yaseBhabhiloni.
He ko e meʻa ʻi he houhau ʻa Sihova naʻe hoko eni ki Selūsalema mo Siuta, pea koeʻuhi ke ne liʻaki ʻakinautolu mei hono ʻao, naʻe fai ʻae angatuʻu ʻa Setikia ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone.
