Jeremias 39
1 No anno nono de Zedekias, rei de Judah, no mez decimo, veiu Nabucodonozor, rei de Babylonia, todo o seu exercito, contra Jerusalem, e a cercaram.
In the ninth year and tenth month of Zedekiah king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came with all his army against Jerusalem and besieged it.
2 No anno undecimo de Zedekias, no quarto mez, aos nove do mez, se fez a brecha na cidade.
In the eleventh year and fourth month of Zedekiah, on the ninth day of the month, the city was broken into.
3 E entraram n'ella todos os principes do rei de Babylonia, e pararam na porta do meio, a saber: Nergal-sarezer, Samgar-nebo, Sarsecim, Rab-saris, Nergal-sarezer, Rab-mag, e todo o resto dos principes do rei de Babylonia.
Then all the officials of the king of Babylon came and sat in the middle gate: Nebo-Sarsekim, Samgar Nebo, and Sarsechim, an important official. Nebo-Sarsekim was a high official and all the rest were the officials of the king of Babylon.
4 E succedeu que, vendo-os Zedekias, rei de Judah, e todos os homens de guerra, fugiram, e sairam de noite da cidade, pelo caminho do jardim do rei, pela porta d'entre os dois muros; e saiu pelo caminho da campina.
It happened that when Zedekiah, king of Judah, and all his fighting men saw them, they fled. They went out at night from the city by the king's garden path, through the gate between the two walls. The king went out in the direction of the Arabah.
5 Porém o exercito dos chaldeos os perseguiu; e alcançaram a Zedekias nas campinas de Jericó, e o prenderam, e o fizeram subir a Nabucodonozor, rei de Babylonia, a Ribla, na terra de Hamath, e o sentenciou.
But the army of Chaldeans pursued them and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of the Jordan River valley near Jericho. Then they captured him and brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, at Riblah in the land of Hamath, where Nebuchadnezzar passed sentence on him.
6 E o rei de Babylonia matou os filhos de Zedekias em Ribla, diante dos meus olhos: tambem matou o rei de Babylonia a todos os nobres de Judah.
The king of Babylon slaughtered Zedekiah's sons before his own eyes at Riblah. He also slaughtered all the noblemen of Judah.
7 E cegou os olhos de Zedekias, e o atou com duas cadeias de bronze, para leval-o a Babylonia.
Then he put out Zedekiah's eyes and bound him in bronze chains in order to take him to Babylon.
8 E os chaldeos queimaram a fogo a casa do rei e as casas do povo, e derribaram os muros de Jerusalem.
Then the Chaldeans burned the king's house and the people's houses. They also tore down the walls of Jerusalem.
9 E o resto do povo, que ficou na cidade, e os rebeldes que tinham caido para elle, e o resto do povo que ficou, levou Nebuzaradan, capitão da guarda, a Babylonia.
Nebuzaradan, the commander of the king's bodyguards, took into exile the rest of the people who were left in the city. This included the people who had deserted to the Chaldeans and the rest of the people who were left in the city.
10 Porém dos pobres de entre o povo que não tinha nada, deixou Nebuzaradan, capitão da guarda, alguns na terra de Judah; e deu-lhes vinhas e campos n'aquelle dia.
But Nebuzaradan the commander of the king's bodyguards allowed the poorest people who had nothing for themselves to remain in the land of Judah. He gave them vineyards and fields on that same day.
11 Mas Nabucodonozor, rei de Babylonia, havia dado ordem ácerca de Jeremias, na mão de Nebuzaradan, capitão dos da guarda, dizendo:
Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had given an order about Jeremiah to Nebuzaradan the commander of the king's bodyguards. He had said,
12 Toma-o, e põe sobre elle os teus olhos, e não lhe faças nenhum mal; antes, como elle te disser, assim usarás com elle.
“Take him and care for him. Do not harm him. Do for him anything he tells you.”
13 Enviou pois Nebuzaradan, capitão dos da guarda, e Nebus-hasban, Rab-saris, Nergal-sarezer, Rab-mag, e todos os principes do rei de Babylonia:
So Nebuzaradan the commander of the king's bodyguards, Nebushazban the high eunuch, Nergal-Sharezer the high official, and all the most important officials of the king of Babylon sent men out.
14 Enviaram pois, e tomaram a Jeremias do atrio da guarda, e o entregaram a Gedalias, filho de Ahicam, filho de Saphan, para que o levasse á casa; e ficou entre o povo.
Their men took Jeremiah from the courtyard of the guard and entrusted him to Gedaliah son of Ahikam son of Shaphan, to take him home, so Jeremiah stayed among the people.
15 Tambem a Jeremias veiu a palavra do Senhor, estando elle ainda encerrado no atrio da guarda, dizendo:
Now the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah while he was under arrest in the courtyard of the guard, saying,
16 Vae, e falla a Ebed-melech, o ethiope, dizendo: Assim diz o Senhor dos Exercitos, Deus de Israel: Eis que eu trarei as minhas palavras sobre esta cidade para mal e não para bem: e serão cumpridas diante de ti n'aquelle dia.
“Speak to Ebed-Melek the Cushite and say, 'Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this: See, I am about to carry out my words against this city for disaster and not for good. For they will all come true before you on that day.
17 Porém te farei escapar n'aquelle dia, diz o Senhor, e não serás entregue na mão dos homens perante cuja face tu temes.
But I will rescue you on that day—this is Yahweh's declaration—and you will not be given into the hand of the men whom you fear.
18 Porque certamente te livrarei, e não cairás á espada: mas a tua alma terás por despojo, porquanto confiaste em mim, diz o Senhor.
For I will certainly rescue you. You will not fall by the sword. You will escape with your life, since you trust in me—this was Yahweh's declaration.'”
