Ermiyaas 52
1 Zedeqiyaa yeroo mootii taʼetti nama umuriin isaa waggaa digdamii tokkoo ture; innis Yerusaalem keessa taaʼee waggaa kudha tokko bulche. Maqaan haadha isaa Hamuutaal ture; isheenis intala Ermiyaas kan magaalaa Libnaatii dhufte turte.
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 Innis akkuma Yehooyaaqiim hojjete sana, fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa ni hojjete.
He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
3 Wanni kun hundi sababii dheekkamsa Waaqayyootiif Yerusaalemii fi Yihuudaa irra gaʼe; dhuma irrattis inni fuula isaa duraa isaan balleesse. Zedeqiyaa mooticha Baabilonitti fincile.
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 Bara mootummaa Zedeqiyaa keessa waggaa saglaffaatti, bultii kurnaffaa jiʼa kurnaffaatti Nebukadnezar mootiin Baabilon guutummaa loltoota isaa wajjin Yerusaalemitti duule; isaanis magaalattiin ala qubatanii naannoo ishee hundatti tuullaa biyyoo marsan.
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 Magaalaan sunis hamma waggaa kudha tokkoffaa bara Zedeqiyaa Mootichaatti akkuma marfamtetti turte.
So the city was besieged to the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
6 Bultii saglaffaa jiʼa afuraffaatti, magaalattii keessatti beelli akka malee hammaatee namni waan nyaatu tokko illee dhabe.
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 Ergasii dallaan magaalattii cabsamee loltoonni hundinuus baʼanii baqatan. Isaanis utuma Baabilononni magaalaa sana marsanii jiranuu karaa karra dallaa iddoo biqiltuu mootichaa bira jiru lamaan gidduu baasu sanaatiin halkaniin baʼanii baqatan. Isaanis Arabbaatti baqatan;
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 Chaldeans were against the city all around. The men of war went toward the Arabah,
8 loltoonni Baabilon garuu Zedeqiyaa Mooticha ariʼanii dirree Yerikoo irratti isa qaqqaban; loltoonni isaa hundis isa irraa gargar baʼanii bibittinnaaʼanii turan;
but the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
9 innis ni qabame. Gara mootii Baabilonitti Riiblaa biyya Hamaati keessaatti geeffame. Achittis itti murame.
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 Mootiin Baabilonis Riiblaatti ijuma isaa duratti ilmaan Zedeqiyaa gorraʼe; qondaaltota Yihuudaa hundas fixe.
The king of Babylon killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes. He also killed all the princes of Judah in Riblah.
11 Innis ergasii Zedeqiyaa keessaa ija isaa baasee foncaa naasiitiin hidhee Baabilonitti isa geesse; hamma gaafa inni duʼuuttis manuma hidhaa keessa isa tursiise.
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 Bara mootummaa Nebukadnezar mooticha Baabilon keessa waggaa kudha saglaffaatti, bultii kurnaffaa jiʼa shanaffaatti Nebuzaradaan ajajaan eegumsa mootummaa inni mootii Baabilon tajaajilu sun gara Yerusaalem dhufe.
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 Innis mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootti, masaraa mootummaattii fi manneen Yerusaalem hundatti ibidda qabsiise; manneen gurguddaa hundas ni gube.
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 Loltoonni Baabilon kanneen ajajaa eegumsa mootummaa jala turan hundi dallaawwan naannoo Yerusaalem turan hunda diigan.
All the army of the Chaldeans, who were with the captain of the guard, broke down all the walls of Jerusalem all around.
15 Nebuzaradaan ajajaan eegumsaa sun namoota hiyyeeyyii tokko tokkoo fi warra magaalaa keessatti hafan, warra ogummaa harkaa qabanii fi warra baqatanii mootii Baabilonitti kooluu galan boojiʼee fudhate.
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 Nebuzaradaan garuu hiyyeeyyii biyyattii warra hafan akka wayinii kunuunsanii fi lafa qotaniif achitti dhiise.
But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poorest of the land to be vineyard keepers and farmers.
17 Baabilononni sun utubaawwan naasii, baattuuwwan iddoodhaa sochoʼanii fi Gaanii naasii irraa hojjetamee mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessa ture caccabsanii naasii sana hunda immoo Baabilonitti geessan.
The Chaldeans 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 Akkasumas okkoteewwan, waan ittiin daaraa hammaaran, waan ittiin ibsaa irraa daaraa dhadhaʼan, waciitiiwwan ittiin dhiiga facaasan, caabiiwwanii fi miʼoota naasii irraa hojjetaman kanneen tajaajila mana qulqullummaatiif oolan hunda fudhatan.
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 Ajajaan eegumsaa sunis miʼoota warqee qulqulluu fi meetii irraa hojjetaman hunda jechuunis caabii dhooqaa, girgiraawwan, waciitiiwwan ittiin dhiiga facaasan, okkoteewwan, baattuuwwan ibsaa, caabiiwwanii fi waciitiiwwan ittiin dhibaafatan fudhatee deeme.
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 Ulfinni naasii kan Solomoon Mootichi ittiin utubaawwan lamaan, Gaanii fi jiboota kudha lamaan isa jala jiranii fi baattuuwwan iddoodhaa sochoʼaniin mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootiif hojjetee ture waan madaalliin madaaluu dandaʼuu oli turan.
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 Tokkoon tokkoon utubaa sanaa dhundhuma kudha saddeet ol dheeratee marsaan isaa immoo dhundhuma kudha lama ture; yabbinni isaa quba afur taʼee keessi isaas banaa ture.
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 Guutuun naasii kan utubaa tokko irraas dhundhuma shan ol dheeratee naannoon isaa guutuun sibiila wal keessa loofamee tolfamee fi roomaanii naasiitiin miidhagfamee ture. Utubaan kaanis roomaanii naasii wajjin kanuma fakkaata ture.
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 Roomaanoonni bitaa mirgaan turan sagaltamii sagal turan; walumatti faaya naannoo utubichaa gubbaan jiru wajjin roomanoota dhibba tokkootu ture.
There were ninety-six pomegranates on the sides; all the pomegranates were one hundred on the network all around.
24 Ajajaan eegumsaa sun Seraayaa lubicha hangafa, Sefaaniyaa lubicha Sadarkaan isatti aanuu fi eegdota balbalaa sadan hidhee fuudhee deeme.
The captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold,
25 Warra amma illee magaalaa keessatti hafan keessaa ajajaa loltootaatii fi gorsitoota mootii torba fudhate. Akkasumas barreessaa qondaala ol aanaa ture kan saba keessaa loltummaaf namoota filatu sanaa fi namoota magaalaa keessatti argaman jaatama fudhate.
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 Nebuzaradaan ajajaan sun hunda isaanii guuree Riiblaatti gara mooticha Baabilonitti geesse.
Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
27 Mootichis achuma Riiblaat biyya Hamaati keessatti isaan ni fixe. Yihuudaanis akkasiin boojiʼamee biyya isheetii baate.
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 Baayʼinni namoota Nebukadnezar boojuudhaan fudhatee kanaa dha: Waggaa torbaffaa keessa Yihuudoota 3,023;
This is the number of the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away captive: in the seventh year, three thousand twenty-three Jews;
29 bara Nebukadnezar keessa waggaa kudha saddeettaffaatti, Yerusaalemii namoota 832;
in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, he carried away captive from Jerusalem eight hundred thirty-two persons;
30 waggaa digdamii sadaffaa isaa keessa Yihuudoonni 745, Nebuzaradaan ajajaa eegumsaa sanaan boojuudhaan fudhataman. Isaanis walumatti namoota 4,600 turan.
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 Yehooyaakiin mootiin Yihuudaa boojiʼamee waggaa soddomii torbaffaa isaatti, Eewiil Marodaak mootii Baabilon taʼe; innis wagguma sana keessa bultii digdamii shanaffaa jiʼa kudha lammaffaatti Yehooyaakiin mooticha Yihuudaa sana mana hidhaatii gad dhiisee bilisa isa baase.
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 Afaan tolaadhaanis isatti dubbatee barcuma ulfinaa kan barcuma mootota isa wajjin Baabilon keessa turan kaanii caalu kenneef.
He spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon,
33 Kanaafuu Yehooyaakiin uffata isaa kan mana hidhaatti uffachaa ture sana of irraa baasee bara jireenya isaa guutuu yeroo hunda maaddii mootichaa irraa nyaate.
and changed his prison garments. Jehoiachin ate bread before him continually all the days of his life.
34 Mootiin Baabilonis hamma inni lubbuudhaan jiraatetti guyyuma guyyaadhaan waan isaaf barbaachisu Yehooyaakiiniif kennaa ture.
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.
