< ارمیا 52 >
صدقیا بیست و یک ساله بود که پادشاه شد و یازده سال در اورشلیم سلطنت کرد. اسم مادرش حمیطل (دختر ارمیای لبنهای) بود. | 1 |
Zedekiah was a son of twenty-one years when he first began to reign. And he reigned for eleven years in Jerusalem. And the name of his mother was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah from Libnah.
صدقیا مثل یهویاقیم، آنچه در نظر خداوند نادرست بود، به عمل آورد، | 2 |
And he did what was evil in the eyes of the Lord, in accord with all that Jehoiakim had done.
و خداوند بر اورشلیم و یهودا خشمگین شده، ایشان را از حضور خود به دور افکند و به تبعید فرستاد. و اما صدقیا علیه پادشاه بابِل شورش کرد. | 3 |
And so the fury of the Lord was toward Jerusalem, and toward Judah, even until he cast them away from his face. And Zedekiah drew away from the king of Babylon.
پس در روز دهم ماه دهم از سال نهم سلطنت صدقیا، نِبوکَدنِصَّر، پادشاه بابِل، با تمام سپاهیان خود به اورشلیم لشکرکشی کرد و در اطراف آن سنگر ساخت. | 4 |
And it happened that, in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, he and his entire army, came against Jerusalem. And they besieged it, and they built fortifications against it, on every side.
شهر، دو سال در محاصره بود. | 5 |
And the city was besieged, until the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
سرانجام در روز نهم ماه چهارم که قحطی در شهر بیداد میکرد و آخرین ذخیرهٔ نان هم تمام شده بود، | 6 |
Then, in the fourth month, on the ninth of the month, a famine gripped the city. And there was no nourishment for the people of the land.
مردم اورشلیم، شکافی در دیوار شهر ایجاد کردند. سربازان وقتی این را دیدند، علیرغم محاصرهٔ شهر، شبانه از دروازههایی که بین دو دیوار نزدیک باغهای پادشاه بود، بیرون رفتند و به طرف درهٔ اردن گریختند. | 7 |
And the city was broken, and all the men of war fled, and they departed from the city at night by way of the gate which is between the two walls, and which leads to the king’s garden, while the Chaldeans were besieging the city all around, and they went away by the road that leads to the wilderness.
ولی سربازان بابِلی، ایشان را تعقیب کردند و در بیابانهای اطراف اریحا، صدقیای پادشاه را گرفتند، ولی محافظین او فرار کردند. | 8 |
But the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king. And they overtook Zedekiah in the desert which is near Jericho. And all of his companions fled away from him.
سپس او را به حضور پادشاه بابِل که در شهر ربله در سرزمین حمات مستقر شده بود، آوردند و پادشاه بابِل در آنجا حکم محکومیت او را صادر کرد، | 9 |
And when they had captured the king, they led him away to the king of Babylon at Riblah, which is in the land of Hamath. And he spoke a judgment against him.
و در برابر چشمان صدقیا تمام پسرانش و بزرگان یهودا را کشت. | 10 |
And the king of Babylon cut the throats of the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he also killed all the leaders of Judah at Riblah.
سپس چشمان او را از حدقه درآورد و او را با زنجیرها بسته، به بابِل برد و تا آخر عمر در زندان نگه داشت. | 11 |
And he plucked out the eyes of Zedekiah, and he bound him with shackles, and the king of Babylon led him away to Babylon, and he placed him in the prison house, even until the day of his death.
در روز دهم ماه پنجم از سال نوزدهم سلطنت نِبوکَدنِصَّر، پادشاه بابِل، نبوزرادان فرماندۀ سپاه بابِل و مشاور پادشاه، وارد اورشلیم شد | 12 |
Then, in the fifth month, on the tenth of the month, which is the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, arrived. And he was standing before the king of Babylon at Jerusalem.
و خانۀ خداوند، کاخ سلطنتی و تمام خانههای بزرگ شهر را به آتش کشید، | 13 |
And he set fire to the house of the Lord, and to the house of the king, and to all the houses of Jerusalem. And every great house he burned with fire.
و سربازانش دیوار شهر را خراب کردند. | 14 |
And the entire army of the Chaldeans, who were with the chief of the military, destroyed the entire wall all around Jerusalem.
آنگاه عدهای از فقرای یهودا را با آنانی که در اورشلیم زنده مانده بودند و کسانی که صدقیا را ترک کرده، به بابِلیها پیوسته بودند، و صنعتگران باقی مانده در شهر را به بابِل تبعید کرد. | 15 |
Then Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, took away some of the poor people, and some of the rest of the common people, who had remained in the city, and some of the fugitives, who had fled over to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.
تنها عدهای فقیر را برای کار کشاورزی و باغبانی در آنجا باقی گذاشت. | 16 |
Yet truly, some of the poor of the land, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, left behind as vinedressers and farmers.
بابِلیها ستونهای مفرغین خانهٔ خداوند و حوض مفرغین و میزهای متحرکی را که در آنجا بود، شکستند و تمام مفرغ آنها را به بابِل بردند. | 17 |
The Chaldeans also broke apart the bronze pillars that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the sea of brass that was in the house of the Lord. And they took all the brass of these things to Babylon.
نبوزرادان تمام دیگهای بزرگ و کوچک مفرغین و خاکاندازها را که برای مذبح به کار میرفت و انبرها، قاشقها، کاسهها و تمام ظروف دیگر مفرغین خانهٔ خدا را با خود برد. او همچنین انبرها، چراغدانها، پیالهها و کاسههای طلا و نقره را به همراه برد. | 18 |
And they took the cooking pots, and the hooks, and the psalteries, and the bowls, and the little mortars, and all the bronze vessels that had been used in the ministry.
And the chief of the military took the water pots, and the censers, and the pitchers, and the basins, and the lampstands, and the mortars, and the little cups, whatever was gold, for the gold, and whatever was silver, for the silver,
دو ستون و حوضچه و دوازده گاو مفرغین که زیر حوضچه قرار داشت به قدری سنگین بودند که وزن کردن آنها امکانپذیر نبود. تمام اینها در زمان سلیمان پادشاه ساخته شده بود. | 20 |
as well as the two pillars, and the one brass sea, and the twelve oxen of brass that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made in the house of the Lord. There was no weight of brass left behind out of all these vessels.
بلندی هر ستون در حدود هشت متر و محیط آن در حدود پنج متر و نیم و ضخامت دیوارهایش چهار انگشت بود و میانتهی بود، | 21 |
Now concerning the pillars, one pillar was eighteen cubits high, and a cord of twelve cubits encircled it. Moreover, its thickness was four fingers, and the interior was hollow.
و هر یک از آنها نیز سر ستونی مفرغین به بلندی دو متر و نیم داشت و گرداگرد هر سر ستون، انارهای مفرغین، کندهکاری شده بود؛ | 22 |
And heads of brass were upon both. And the height of one head was five cubits. And little nets with pomegranates were upon the heads all around, all of brass. The second pillar was similar, and the pomegranates.
روی هر سر ستون، یکصد انار وجود داشت، ولی از پایین فقط نود و شش انار را میشد دید. | 23 |
And there were ninety-six pomegranates hanging down; and there were one hundred pomegranates in all, surrounded by the little nets.
در ضمن نبوزرادان، فرماندهٔ سپاه بابِل این افراد را نیز در مخفیگاههایشان در شهر پیدا کرد: سرایا، کاهن اعظم و معاون او صفنیا، سه نفر از نگهبانان خانهٔ خدا، یکی از فرماندهان لشکر با هفت نفر از مشاوران مخصوص پادشاه، کاتب فرماندهٔ سپاه یهودا (که مسئول ثبت تعداد سربازان بود) و شصت نفر از اشخاص مهم دیگر. | 24 |
And the chief of the military took Seraiah, the first priest, and Zephaniah, the second priest, and the three keepers of the vestibule.
He also took from the city one eunuch who was in charge of the men of war, and seven men among those who served before the face of the king, who were found in the city, and a scribe, a leader of the military, who tested the new recruits, and sixty men from the people of the land, who were found in the midst of the city.
نبوزرادان ایشان را به ربله نزد پادشاه بابِل برد، | 26 |
Then Nebuzaradan, the chief of the military, took them, and he led them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
و پادشاه در آنجا همه را کشت. به این ترتیب اهالی یهودا به بابِل تبعید شدند. | 27 |
And the king of Babylon struck them and put them to death at Riblah, in the land of Hamath. And Judah was carried away from his land.
تعداد اسیرانی که در سال هفتم سلطنت نِبوکَدنِصَّر به بابِل برده شدند، ۳٬۰۲۳ نفر بود. | 28 |
This is the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty-three Jews;
یازده سال بعد، او ۸۳۲ نفر دیگر را هم از اورشلیم اسیر کرد و به بابِل برد. | 29 |
in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, eight hundred thirty-two souls from Jerusalem;
پنج سال بعد از آن، نبوزرادان فرماندهٔ سپاه بابِل، ۷۴۵ نفر دیگر را تبعید کرد. بنابراین، در مجموع، ۴٬۶۰۰ نفر تبعید شدند. | 30 |
in the twenty-third year of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuzaradan, the chief of the military, carried away of the Jews seven hundred forty-five souls. Therefore, all the souls were four thousand six hundred.
در روز بیست و پنجم ماه دوازدهم از سی و هفتمین سال اسیری یهویاکین، پادشاه یهودا، اویل مرودک به پادشاهی بابِل رسید و یهویاکین را مورد لطف خود قرار داد و او را از زندان بیرون آورد. | 31 |
And it happened that, in the thirty-seventh year of the transmigration of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-fifth of the month, Evilmerodach, the king of Babylon, in the very first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, and he brought him out of the prison house.
او با یهویاکین رفتاری مهرآمیز در پیش گرفت و او را بر تمام پادشاهان تبعیدی در بابِل برتری داد، | 32 |
And he spoke with him for good, and he set his throne above the thrones of the kings who were after him in Babylon.
لباس نو به او پوشاند و از آن پس، او همیشه با پادشاه بابِل سر سفره مینشست. | 33 |
And he changed his prison garments, and he ate bread in his sight always, all the days of his life.
اویل مرودک تا روزی که یهویاکین زنده بود، برای رفع احتیاجاتش به او مقرری میپرداخت. | 34 |
And for his meals, a continual provision was allotted to him by the king of Babylon, a measure for every single day, until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
