< यर्मिया 52 >
1 सिदकियाहले राज्य गर्न सुरु गर्दा तिनी एक्काइस वर्षका थिए । तिनले यरूशलेममा एघार वर्ष राज्य गरे । तिनकी आमाको नाउँ हमुतल थियो । उनी लिब्नाका यर्मियाकी छोरी थिइन् ।
Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign. He reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
2 परमप्रभुको दृष्टिमा जे खराब थियो, तिनले त्यही गरे । यहोयाकीमले गरेका हरेक कुरा तिनले गरे ।
He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
3 परमप्रभुले आफ्नो सामुबाट तिनीहरूलाई नधपाउनुभएसम्म उहाँको क्रोधद्वारा यी सबै घटना यरूशलेम र यहूदामा घटे । तब सिदकियाह बेबिलोनको विरुद्धमा विद्रोह गरे ।
For through the LORD’s anger this happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence. Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
4 राजा सिदकियाहको शासनकालको नवौं वर्षको दसौं महिनाको दसौं दिनमा बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसर यरूशलेमको विरुद्धमा आफ्ना सबै सेनासँगै आए । तिनीहरूले यसको सामु छाउनी हाले, र तिनीहरूले यसको चारैतिर घेराबन्दी गरे ।
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 round about.
5 यसरी राजा सिदकियाहको शासनकालको एघारौं वर्षसम्म सहरलाई घेराबन्दी गरियो ।
So the city was besieged to the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
6 चौथो महिनाको नवौं दिनसम्म सहरमा यस्तो घोर अनिकाल पर्यो, कि देशका मानिसहरूका लागि कुनै खानेकुरा नै थिएन ।
In the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was severe in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
7 तब सहरको पर्खाल भत्काइयो, र कल्दीहरू सहरको चारैतिर भए तापनि सहरको पर्खाललाई भत्काएर सबै योद्धा रातमा राजाको बगैंचानेर भएका दुईवटा पर्खालको बिचको ढोकाको बाटो भएर भागे । तिनीहरू अराबाको दिशातिर गए ।
Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled, and went out of the city by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king’s garden. Now the Kasdim were against the city all around. The men of war went toward the Arabah,
8 तर कल्दीहरूका सेनाले राजा सिदकियाहलाई खेदे, र यरीहो नजिकैको यर्दन नदीका मैदानहरूमा भेट्टाए । तिनका सबै सेना तिनीबाट तितर-बितर भए ।
but the army of the Kasdim pursued the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
9 तिनीहरूले राजालाई समाते र हमात देशको रिब्लामा बेबिलोनका राजाकहाँ तिनलाई ल्याए जहाँ राजाले तिनलाई दण्डको फैसला सुनाए ।
Then they took the king, and carried him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he pronounced judgment on him.
10 बेबिलोनका राजाले सिदकियाहका छोराहरूलाई तिनकै आँखाका सामु मारे, र रिब्लामा तिनले यहूदाका सबै अगुवालाई पनि मारे ।
The king of Babylon killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes. He also killed all the princes of Judah in Riblah.
11 तब तिनले सिदकियाहका आँखा निकाले, तिनलाई काँसाका साङ्लाहरूले बाँधे र बेबिलोनमा ल्याए । तिनको मृत्यु नभएसम्म नै बेबिलोनका राजाले तिनलाई झ्यालखानामा राखे ।
He put out the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon bound him in fetters, and carried him to Babylon, and put him in prison until the day of his death.
12 अब बेबिलोनका राजा नबूकदनेसरको राज्य सुरु गरेको उन्नाइसौं वर्षको पाँचौं महिनाको दसौं दिनमा नबूजरदान यरूशलेममा आए । तिनी राजाका अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्डर अनि बेबिलोनका राजाका सेवक थिए ।
Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, who stood before the king of Babylon, came into Jerusalem.
13 तिनले परमप्रभुको मन्दिर, राजदरबार र यरूशलेमका सबै घर जलाए । अनि सहरमा भएका हरेक महत्त्वपूर्ण भवन तिनले जलाए ।
He burned the LORD’s house, and the king’s house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house, he burned with fire.
14 यरूशलेमको वरिपरि भएका पर्खालहरूका सन्दर्भमा, अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्डरको अधीनमा रहेका बेबिलोनका सबै सेनाले ती नष्ट पारे ।
All the army of the Kasdim, who were with the captain of the guard, broke down all the walls of Jerusalem all around.
15 सबैभन्दा गरिब मानिसहरू, सहरमा बाँकी रहेका मानिसहरू, बेबिलोनका राजाकहाँ भागेर गएकाहरू र बाँकी रहेका कारीगरहरूका विषयमा, अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्डर नबूजरदानले तीमध्ये कसैलाई निर्वासनमा लगे ।
Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the poorest of the people, and the rest of the people who were left in the city, and those who fell away, who defected to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.
16 तर अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्डर नबूजरदानले दाखबारी र खेतहरूमा काम गर्न देशका सबैभन्दा गरिबहरूलाई त्यहीं छोडे ।
But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poorest of the land to be vineyard keepers and farmers.
17 परमप्रभुको मन्दिरमा राखिएका काँसाका स्तम्भहरू, आधारहरू र काँसाको विशाल खड्कुँलो विषयमा कल्दीहरूले ती टुक्राटुक्रा पारे, र सबै काँसाचाहिं बेबिलोनमा लगे ।
The Kasdim broke the pillars of bronze that were in the LORD’s house and the bases and the bronze sea that were in the LORD’s house in pieces, and carried all of their bronze to Babylon.
18 भाँडाहरू, बेल्चाहरू, सलेदाका चिम्टाहरू, चम्चाहरू र मन्दिरमा पुजारीहरूले सेवा गर्दा प्रयोग गरिने काँसाका सबै सामान पनि, कल्दीहरूले तीसबै लगे ।
They also took away the pots, the shovels, the snuffers, the basins, the spoons, and all the vessels of bronze with which they ministered.
19 राजाका अङ्गरक्षकका कमान्डरले कञ्चन सुन वा चाँदीले बनेका स्नान-बाटाहरू, धुपौराहरू, छर्कने बाटाहरू, भाँडाहरू, सामदानहरू, अर्घ-बलिमा चढाइने कचौरा र बाटाहरू पनि लगे ।
The captain of the guard took away the cups, the fire pans, the basins, the pots, the lamp stands, the spoons, and the bowls; that which was of gold, as gold, and that which was of silver, as silver.
20 सोलोमनले मन्दिरको लागि बनाएका दुईवटा स्तम्भ, विशाल खड्कुँलो भनेर चिनिने काँसाको बाटा, त्यसमुनि भएका बाह्रवटा काँसाका साँढे जोख्नै नसक्ने गरी धेरै काँसा थियो ।
They took the two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve bronze bulls that were under the bases, which King Solomon had made for the LORD’s house. The bronze of all these vessels was without weight.
21 स्तम्भहरू प्रत्येकका उचाइ अठार हात थियो, र गोलाइ बाह्र हात थियो । प्रत्येकको मोटाइ चार अङ्गुल चौडा र खोक्रो थियो ।
As for the pillars, the height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits; and a line of twelve cubits encircled it; and its thickness was four fingers. It was hollow.
22 स्तम्भमाथि एउटा स्तम्भ-शिर थियो । स्तम्भ-शिर पाँच हात अग्लो थियो, र यो काँसाको जाली र दारिमका बुट्टाले चारैतिर भरिएको थियो । अर्को स्तम्भ पनि त्यसका दारिमहरूसहित पहिलेको जस्तै थियो ।
A capital of bronze was on it; and the height of the one capital was five cubits, with network and pomegranates on the capital all around, all of bronze. The second pillar also had the same, with pomegranates.
23 स्तम्भ-शिरका छेउ-छेउमा छयानब्बेवटा दारिम थिए । चारैतिर जालीलाई घेरिराखेका दारिमहरू जम्मा एक सयवटा थिए ।
There were ninety-six pomegranates on the sides; all the pomegranates were one hundred on the network all around.
24 अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्डरले मुख्य पुजारी बन्दी सरायाह, दोस्रो दर्जाका पुजारी सपन्याह र तिन जना द्वारपाललाई लिएर गए ।
The captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold,
25 तिनले सिपाहीहरूको जिम्मामा भएका अधिकारी, सहरमा अझै बाँकी रहेका राजाका सात जना सल्लाहकारलाई सहरबाट कैद गरेर लगे । तिनले देशका मानिसहरूलाई सेनाम भर्ती गर्ने मुख्य अधिकारी र देशमा भएका अन्य साठी जना विशिष्ट मानिसलाई पनि कैद गरेर लगे ।
and out of the city he took an officer who was set over the men of war; and seven men of those who saw the king’s face, who were found in the city; and the scribe of 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 middle of the city.
26 तब अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्डर नबूजरदानले तिनीहरूलाई रिब्लामा बेबिलोनका राजाकहाँ लगे ।
Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
27 बेबिलोनका राजाले हमात देशको रिब्लामा तिनीहरूलाई मारे । यसरी यहूदा आफ्नो देशबाट निर्वासनमा लगियो ।
The king of Babylon struck them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his land.
28 नबूकदनेसरले निर्वासनमा लगेका मानिसहरू यी नै थिएः सातौँ वर्षमा ३,०२३ जना यहूदी ।
This is the number of the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away captive: in the seventh year, three thousand twenty-three Jews;
29 नबूकदनेसरको अठारौं वर्षमा तिनले यरूशलेमबाट ८३२ जना मानिसलाई लगे ।
in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, he carried away captive from Jerusalem eight hundred thirty-two persons;
30 नबूकदनेसरको तेइसौं वर्षमा अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कमान्डर नबूजरदानले यहूदाका ७४५ जना मानिसलाई लगे । निर्वासित भएका जम्मा मानिस ४,६०० जना थिए ।
in the twenty-third year of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the Jews seven hundred forty-five people. All the people numbered four thousand six hundred.
31 यहूदाका राजा यहोयाकीन निर्वासन भएको सैंतिसौं वर्षको बाह्रौं महिनाको पच्चिसौं दिनमा, बेबिलोनका राजा एबील-मरोदकले यहूदाका राजा यहोयाकीनलाई कैदबाट मुक्त गरे । एबील-मरोदकले राज्य सुरु गरेको वर्षमा यसो गरियो ।
In the thirty-seventh year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the twenty-fifth day of the month, Evilmerodach king of Babylon, in the first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and released him from prison.
32 राजाले तिनीसित दयापूर्वक बोले, र बेबिलोनमा तिनीसित भएका अन्य राजाहरूलाई भन्दा तिनलाई प्रतिष्ठित स्थान दिए ।
He spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon,
33 एबील-मरोदकले यहोयाकीनका कैदका लुगाहरू हटाए, र यहोयाकीनले आफ्नो बाँकी जीवनभर नियमित रूपमा राजाको टेबुलमा खानपान गरे,
and changed his prison garments. Jehoiachin ate bread before him continually all the days of his life.
34 र तिनको मृत्यु नभएसम्म नै तिनको बाँकी जीवनभर हरेक दिन तिनलाई नियमित रूपमा खानाको भत्ता दिइयो ।
For his allowance, there was a continual allowance given him by the king of Babylon, every day a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
