1 Naizvozvo mugore repfumbamwe rokutonga kwaZedhekia, pazuva regumi romwedzi wegumi, Nebhukadhinezari mambo weBhabhironi akaenda kundorwisana neJerusarema nehondo yake yose. Akavaka misasa akakomberedza guta uye akavakawo nhare dzakanga dzakarikomberedza.
And in the ninth yeere of his reigne, the tenth moneth and tenth day of the moneth Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel came, he, and all his hoste against Ierusalem, and pitched against it, and they built fortes against it round about it.
2 Guta rakaramba rakakombwa kusvikira pagore regumi nerimwe chete raMambo Zedhekia.
So the citie was besieged vnto the eleueth yeere of King Zedekiah.
3 Pazuva repfumbamwe romwedzi wechina nzara yakanyanya muguta zvokuti makanga musisina zvokudya zvavanhu.
And the ninth day of the moneth the famine was sore in the citie, so that there was no bread for the people of the lande.
4 Ipapo rusvingo rweguta rwakapwanyiwa, hondo yose ikatiza usiku napasuo raiva pakati pamasvingo maviri pedyo nebindu ramambo, kunyange veBhabhironi vakanga vakakomba guta. Vakatiza vakananga kuArabha,
Then the citie was broken vp, and all the men of warre fled by night, by the way of the gate, which is betweene two walles that was by the Kings garden: nowe the Caldees were by the citie round about: and the King went by the way of the wildernesse.
5 asi hondo yavaBhabhironi yakadzinganisa mambo ikamubatira mumapani eJeriko. Varwi vake vose vakaparadzaniswa naye vakapararira.
But the armie of the Caldees pursued after the King, and tooke him in the desertes of Iericho, and all his hoste was scattered from him.
6 Akabatwa akaendeswa kuna mambo weBhabhironi paRibhira, kwaakandotongwa.
Then they tooke the King, and caried him vp to the King of Babel to Riblah, where they gaue iudgement vpon him.
7 Vakauraya vanakomana vaZedhekia pamberi pake achizviona. Ipapo vakamutushura meso ake, vakamusunga nezvisungo zvamatare vakamutora vakaenda naye kuBhabhironi.
And they slew the sonnes of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bounde him in chaines, and caried him to Babel.
8 Pazuva rechinomwe romwedzi wechishanu, mugore regumi nepfumbamwe raNebhukadhinezari mambo weBhabhironi, Nebhuzaradhani mukuru wehondo yavachengeti vamambo, muranda wamambo weBhabhironi, akauya kuJerusarema.
And in the fift moneth, and seuenth day of the moneth, which was the nineteenth yere of King Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel, came Nebuzar-adan chiefe stewarde and seruaunt of the King of Babel, to Ierusalem,
9 Akapisa temberi yaJehovha, nomuzinda wamambo nedzimba dzose dzeJerusarema. Akapisa, dzimba dzose dzaikosha.
And burnt the house of the Lord, and the Kings house, and all the houses of Ierusalem, and all the great houses burnt he with fire.
10 Hondo yose yeBhabhironi yaiva pasi pomukuru wavarindi vamambo yakaputsa masvingo aipoteredza Jerusarema.
And all the armie of the Caldees that were with the chiefe stewarde, brake downe the walles of Ierusalem round about.
11 Nebhuzaradhani mukuru wavarindi akaendesa kuutapwa vanhu vakanga vasara muguta, pamwe chete navamwe vanhu vose zvavo navaya vakanga vaenda kuna mambo weBhabhironi.
And the rest of the people that were left in the citie, and those that were fled and fallen to the King of Babel, with the remnant of the multitude, did Nebuzar-adan chiefe steward carie away captiue.
12 Asi mukuru wavarindi akasiya vanhu vakanga vari varombo vokupedzisira munyika kuti vashande muminda yemizambiringa nemimwe minda.
But the chiefe steward left of the poore of the land to dresse the vines, and to till the land.
13 Vanhu veBhabhironi vakaputsa mbiru dzendarira, zvigadziko neGungwa rendarira zvakanga zviri mutemberi yaJehovha vakatakura ndarira vakaenda nayo kuBhabhironi.
Also the pillars of brasse that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the brasen Sea that was in the house of the Lord, did the Caldees breake, and caried the brasse of them to Babel.
14 Vakatorawo hari, nefoshoro, nezvidzimiso zvemwenje, nemadhishi uye nemidziyo yose yendarira yaishandiswa mutemberi.
The pots also and the besomes, and the instruments of musike, and the incense dishes, and al the vessels of brasse that they ministred in, tooke they away.
15 Mukuru wehondo yavarindi vamambo akatora zvaenga zvezvinonhuhwira namadhishi okusasa nawo, nezvose zvakanga zvakagadzirwa negoridhe rakaisvonaka kana sirivha.
And the asshe pannes, and the basens, and all that was of gold, and that was of siluer, tooke the chiefe steward away,
16 Ndarira yakabva pambiru mbiri, Gungwa nezvigadziko zvakanga zvagadzirirwa temberi yaJehovha naSoromoni, yakanga yakawanda zvokuti yaisagona kuyerwa.
With the two pillars, one Sea and the bases, which Salomon had made for the house of the Lord: the brasse of all these vessels was without weight.
17 Mbiru imwe neimwe yaiva yakareba makubhiti gumi namasere. Musoro wendarira waiva pamusoro pembiru wakanga wakareba makubhiti matatu uye wakanga wakashongedzwa nomumbure uye namatamba endarira akanga akaupoteredza. Imwe mbiru nomumbure wayo yakanga yakadarowo.
The height of the one pillar was eighteene cubits, and the chapiter thereon was brasse, and the height of the chapiter was with networke three cubites, and pomegranates vpon the chapiter rounde about, all of brasse: and likewise was the second pillar with the networke.
18 Mukuru wavarindi akatora Seraya muprista mukuru naZefania muprista aimutevera paukuru navachengeti vomukova vatatu akavaita vasungwa.
And the chiefe steward tooke Seraiah the chiefe Priest, and Zephaniah the second Priest, and the three keepers of the doore.
19 Pane avo vakanga vasara muguta, akatora mukuru wavarwi navapi vamazano vamambo vashanu. Akatorawo munyori akanga ari mubati mukuru ainyoresa vanhu venyika kuti vave varwi navamwe vanhu vake vaisvika makumi matanhatu vakawanikwa muguta.
And out of the citie hee tooke an Eunuch that had the ouersight of the men of warre, and fiue men of them that were in the Kinges presence, which were founde in the citie, and Sopher captaine of the hoste, who mustred the people of the lande, and threescore men of the people of the lande, that were founde in the citie.
20 Nebhuzaradhani mukuru wavarindi akavatora vose akavaendesa kuna mambo weBhabhironi paRibhura.
And Nebuzar-adan the chiefe stewarde tooke them, and brought them to the King of Babel to Riblah.
21 Ipapo paRibhura munyika yeHamati, mambo akarayira kuti vaurayiwe. Saka Judha yakaenda kuutapwa, kure nenyika yayo.
And the King of Babel smote them, and slew them at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Iudah was caried away captiue out of his owne land.
22 Nebhukadhinezari mambo weBhabhironi akagadza Gedharia mwanakomana waAhikami, mwanakomana waShafani, kuti atonge vanhu vaakanga asiya muJudha.
Howbeit there remained people in the land of Iudah, whom Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel left, and made Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam the sonne of Shaphan ruler ouer them.
23 Vakuru vose vehondo navanhu vavo pavakanzwa kuti mambo weBhabhironi akanga agadza Gedharia kuti ave mutongi, vakauya kuna Gedharia paMizipa, Ishumaeri mwanakomana waNetania, naJohanani mwanakomana waKarea, naSeraya mwanakomana waTanhumeti muNetofati, naJaazania mwanakomana womuMaakati, navanhu vavo.
Then when all the captaines of the host and their men heard, that the king of Babel had made Gedaliah gouernour, they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, to wit, Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah, and Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and Seraiah the sonne of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Iaazaniah the sonne of Maachathi, they and their men.
24 Gedharia akaita mhiko kuti avasimbise, ivo navanhu vavo. Akati kwavari, “Musatya vabati vomuBhabhironi. Garai munyika mushandire mambo weBhabhironi zvigokunakirai.”
And Gedaliah sware to them, and to their men, and sayd vnto them, Feare not to be the seruants of the Caldees: dwell in the land, and serue the King of Babel, and ye shalbe well.
25 Kunyange zvakadaro, mumwedzi wechinomwe Ishumaeri mwanakomana waNetania, mwanakomana waErishama, akanga ari weropa roushe, akauya navarume gumi akauraya Gedharia navarume veJudha neveBhabhironi vaiva naye paMizipa.
But in the seuenth moneth Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah the sonne of Elishama of the Kings seede, came, and ten men with him, and smote Gedaliah, and he died, and so did he the Iewes, and the Caldees that were with him at Mizpah.
26 Zvadai, vanhu vose kubva kuvadiki kusvika kuvakuru navakuru vehondo pamwe chete vakatizira kuIjipiti, vachitya vaBhabhironi.
Then all ye people both small and great, and the captaines of the armie arose, and came to Egypt: for they were afraide of the Caldees.
27 Mugore ramakumi matatu namanomwe rokutapwa kwaJehoyakini mambo weJudha, mugore rakatanga Evhiri-Merodhaki mambo weBhabhironi kutonga, akasunungura Jehoyakini kubva muusungwa pazuva ramakumi manomwe romwedzi wegumi nemiviri.
Notwithstanding in the seuen and thirtieth yeere after Iehoiachin King of Iudah was caried away, in the twelft moneth and the seuen and twentieth day of the moneth, Euil-merodach King of Babel in the yeere that hee began to reigne, did lift vp the head of Iehoiachin King of Iudah out of the prison,
28 Akataura zvakanaka kwaari akamupa chigaro chokukudzwa chakapfuura chamamwe madzimambo akanga anaye muBhabhironi.
And spake kindly to him, and set his throne aboue the throne of the Kings that were with him in Babel,
29 Naizvozvo Jehoyakini akabvisa nguo dzake dzousungwa uye akadya patafura yamambo nguva nenguva pamazuva ose oupenyu hwake.
And changed his prison garments: and he did continually eate bread before him, all the dayes of his life.
30 Zuva nezuva mambo akapa Jehoyakini mugove wezuva rimwe nerimwe mazuva ose oupenyu hwake.
And his portion was a continual portion giuen him by the King, euery day a certaine, all the dayes of his life.
