Jeremias 39
1 No nono ano de Zedequias, rei de Judá, no décimo mês, Nabucodonosor, rei da Babilônia, e todo seu exército vieram contra Jerusalém, e a sitiaram.
In the ninth year of Zedekiah the king of Judah, in the tenth month, that Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon came with all his army against Jerusalem, and they besieged it.
2 No décimo primeiro ano de Zedequias, no quarto mês, no nono dia do mês, foi feita uma brecha na cidade.
[And] in the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, on the ninth day of the month, was the city broken in.
3 Todos os príncipes do rei da Babilônia entraram, e sentaram-se no portão do meio: Nergal Sharezer, Samgarnebo, Sarsechim, o Rabsaris, Nergal Sharezer, o Rabino, com todos os demais príncipes do rei da Babilônia.
And then came all the princes of the king of Babylon, and sat down in the middle gate; [namely, ] Neregal-sharezer, Samgar-nebu, Sarsechim, the chief of the eunuchs, Neregal-sharezer, the chief of the magi, with all the residue of the princes of the king of Babylon.
4 Quando Zedequias, o rei de Judá, e todos os homens de guerra os viram, fugiram e saíram da cidade à noite, pelo caminho do jardim do rei, pelo portão entre as duas muralhas; e ele saiu em direção ao Arabah.
And it came to pass when Zedekiah the king of Judah saw them, and all the men of war, that they fled, and went forth out of the city by night, by the way of the king's garden, by the gate between the two walls: and he went out by the way of the plain.
5 Mas o exército dos caldeus os perseguiu e ultrapassou Zedequias nas planícies de Jericó. Quando o levaram, levaram-no a Nabucodonosor, rei da Babilônia, a Ribla, na terra de Hamath; e ele pronunciou juízo sobre ele.
But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after them, and they overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and they took him, and brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Chamath: and he called him to account.
6 Então, o rei da Babilônia matou os filhos de Zedequias em Ribla diante de seus olhos. O rei da Babilônia também matou todos os nobres de Judá.
And the king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah in Riblah before his eyes; also all the nobles of Judah did the king of Babylon slaughter.
7 Moreover ele estendeu os olhos de Zedequias e o amarrou em grilhões, para levá-lo à Babilônia.
And the eyes of Zedekiah did he blind; and he bound him with brazen fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
8 Os caldeus queimaram a casa do rei e as casas do povo com fogo e derrubaram as muralhas de Jerusalém.
And the house of the king, and the houses of the people did the Chaldeans burn with fire, and the walls of Jerusalem did they pull down.
9 Então Nebuzaradan o capitão da guarda levou cativo para a Babilônia o resto do povo que permaneceu na cidade, os desertores que também caíram sobre ele, e o resto do povo que permaneceu.
And the rest of the people that remained in the city, and those who had run away that had run away to him, with the rest of the people that remained, did Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carry off into exile to Babylon.
10 Mas Nebuzaradan o capitão da guarda deixou os pobres do povo, que não tinham nada, na terra de Judá, e lhes deu vinhedos e campos ao mesmo tempo.
But of the poorest of the people, who had nothing, did Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard leave some in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and arable fields at the same time.
11 Agora Nabucodonosor, rei da Babilônia, comandou Nebuzaradan, o capitão da guarda a respeito de Jeremias, dizendo:
And Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon gave charge concerning Jeremiah through means of Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, saying,
12 “Levem-no e cuidem dele”. Não lhe façam mal; mas façam-lhe o mesmo que ele lhes disser”.
Take him, and direct thy eyes to him, and do him not the least harm; but as he may speak unto thee, even so do thou with him.
13 Então Nebuzaradan o capitão da guarda, Nebushazban, Rabsaris, e Nergal Sharezer, Rabmag, e todos os oficiais chefes do rei da Babilônia
Then sent Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, and Nebushazban, the chief of the eunuchs, and Neregal-sharezer, the chief of the magi, and all the chiefs of the king of Babylon, —
14 enviou e levou Jeremias para fora da corte da guarda, e o entregou a Gedaliah o filho de Ahikam, o filho de Shaphan, para que o trouxesse para casa. Assim, ele viveu entre o povo.
Even they sent, and took Jeremiah out of the court of the prison, and they committed him unto Gedalyahu the son of Achikam the son of Shaphan, to carry him home: and he remained in the midst of the people.
15 Agora a palavra de Javé veio a Jeremias enquanto ele estava calado na corte da guarda, dizendo:
But unto Jeremiah was come the word of the Lord while he was shut up in the court of the prison, saying,
16 “Vá, e fale com Ebedmelech, o etíope, dizendo: 'Javé dos Exércitos, o Deus de Israel, diz: “Eis que trarei minhas palavras sobre esta cidade para o mal, e não para o bem; e elas serão cumpridas diante de vós naquele dia.
Go and say to 'Ebed-melech the Cushi as followeth, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Behold, I will bring my words [to fulfillment] against this city for evil, and not for good; and they shall be accomplished before thee on that day.
17 Mas eu vos entregarei naquele dia”, diz Javé; “e não sereis entregues nas mãos dos homens de quem temeis”.
But I will deliver thee on that day, saith the Lord; and thou shalt not be given up into the hand of the men of whom thou hast dread.
18 Pois eu certamente o salvarei”. Não cairás pela espada, mas escaparás com tua vida, porque confiaste em mim”, diz Yahweh'”.
For I will surely let thee escape, and thou shalt not fall by the sword; but thy life shall be unto thee as a booty; because thou hast put thy trust in me, saith the Lord.
