Yeremia 52

1 Sedekia dii ade no, na wadi mfirihyia aduonu baako. Odii ade wɔ Yerusalem mfirihyia dubaako. Na ne na din de Hamutal a ɔyɛ Yeremia a ofi Libna no babea.

Zedekiah was one and twentie yeere olde when he began to reigne, and he reigned eleuen yeeres in Ierusalem, and his mothers name was Hamutal, the daughter of Ieremiah of Libnah.

2 Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛnea Yehoiakim yɛe no.

And he did euil in the eyes of the Lord, according to all that Iehoiakim had done.

3 Awurade abufuw nti na eyinom nyinaa baa Yerusalem ne Yuda so, na akyiri no, oyii nʼani fii wɔn so. Afei, Sedekia sɔre tiaa Babiloniahene.

Doubtlesse because the wrath of the Lord was against Ierusalem and Iudah, till he had cast them out from his presence, therefore Zedekiah rebelled against the King of Babel.

4 Ɔsram Tebet (bɛyɛ Ɔpɛpɔn) da a ɛto so dunum wɔ Sedekia ahenni mfe akron so no, ɔhene Nebukadnessar dii nʼakofo nyinaa anim, bɛko tiaa Yerusalem. Wotwaa kuropɔn no ho hyiae. Wɔbobɔɔ mpampim wɔ kuropɔn no afasu ho.

But in the ninth yeere of his reigne, in the tenth moneth the tenth day of the moneth came Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel, he and all his hoste against Ierusalem, and pitched against it, and buylt fortes against it round about.

5 Wotuaa kuropɔn no kosii Ɔhene Sedekia adedi afe a ɛto so dubaako no mu.

So the citie was besieged vnto the eleuenth yeere of the King Zedekiah.

6 Eduu ɔsram a ɛto so anan no da a ɛto so akron no, na ɔkɔm a asi kuropɔn no mu no ano ayɛ den a mu nnipa no nnya aduan nni.

Now in the fourth moneth, the ninth day of the moneth, the famine was sore in ye citie, so that there was no more bread for ye people of the land.

7 Na wɔpaee kuropɔn no fasu mu, na asraafo no nyinaa guanee. Wɔfaa ɔhene turo mu fii kuropɔn no mu anadwo, kɔfaa ɔpon a ɛwɔ afasu abien no ntam, de wɔn ani kyerɛɛ Araba.

Then the citie was broken vp and all the men of warre fled, and went out of the citie by night, by the way of the gate betweene the two walles, which was by the kings garden: (now the Caldeans were by the citie round about) and they went by the way of the wildernes.

8 Nanso Babilonia asraafo no taa Ɔhene Sedekia kɔtoo no wɔ Yeriko tataw so. Na nʼasraafo no nyinaa afi ne ho abɔ ahwete,

But the army of the Caldeans pursued after the king, and tooke Zedekiah in the desert of Iericho, and all his host was scattered from him.

9 na wɔkyeree no. Wɔfaa no dommum de no kɔmaa Babiloniahene wɔ Ribla a ɛwɔ Hamat asase so, na hɔ na obuu no atɛn.

Then they tooke the king and caryed him vp vnto the king of Babel to Riblah in the lande of Hamath, where he gaue iudgement vpon him.

10 Ribla hɔ na Babiloniahene kunkum Sedekia mmabarima wɔ nʼanim na okum Yudafo adwumayɛfo nyinaa nso.

And the king of Babel slewe the sonnes of Zedekiah, before his eyes he slew also al ye princes of Iudah in Riblah.

11 Afei otutuu Sedekia ani, de kɔbere mfrafrae mpokyerɛ guu no sɛ ɔde no rekɔ Babilonia, hɔ na ɔde no too afiase kosii ne wuda.

Then he put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and the king of Babel bound him in chaines, and caried him to Babel, and put him in pryson till the day of his death.

12 Ab ɔsram (bɛyɛ Ɔsannaa) da ɛto so dunan wɔ afe a ɛyɛ Nebukadnessar mfe dunkron adedi mu no, Nebusaradan a ɔyɛ awɛmfo so panyin a ɔyɛ Babiloniahene mpanyimfo no mu baako no kɔɔ Yerusalem.

Now in the fift moneth in the tenth day of the moneth (which was the nineteenth yere of ye King Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel) came Nebuzar-adan chiefe steward which stoode before the king of Babel in Ierusalem,

13 Ɔde ogya too Awurade asɔredan, ahemfi ne afi a ɛwɔ Yerusalem nyinaa mu. Ɔhyew ofi biara a edi mu.

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.

14 Awɛmfo so panyin no hwɛ maa Babilonia asraafo no bubuu Yerusalem afasu no.

And al the armie of the Caldeans that were with the chiefe steward, brake downe all ye walles of Ierusalem round about.

15 Ɔsahene Nebusaradan a na otua awɛmfo no ano no faa wɔn a wodi hia no mu bi, wɔn a wɔkaa kuropɔn no mu, adwumfo a wɔaka ne wɔn a wɔkɔdɔm Babiloniahene no kɔɔ nnommum mu.

Then Nebuzar-adan the chiefe steward caried away captiue certaine of the poore of the people, and the residue of the people that remayned in the citie, and those that were fled, and fallen to the king of Babel, with the rest of the multitude.

16 Nanso Nebusaradan gyaa wɔn a wodi hia wɔ asase no so no nkae sɛ wɔnhwɛ bobe nturo ne mfuw no.

But Nebuzar-adan the chiefe steward left certaine of the poore of the lande, to dresse the vines, and to till the land.

17 Babiloniafo no bubuu kɔbere mfrafrae afadum, nnyinasode a wotumi moma so ne kɔbere mfrafrae Po a na ɛwɔ Awurade asɔredan mu, na wɔde kɔbere mfrafrae no nyinaa kɔɔ Babilonia.

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 ye Lord, the Caldeans brake, and caried all the brasse of them to Babel.

18 Afei wɔfaa nkuku, nsofi, kanea ntamabamma ntwitwaso, ɔpete nkuruwa, nsanka, mprɛte ne kɔbere mfrafrae nneɛma a wɔde yɛ ɔsom adwuma wɔ asɔredan mu no nso kɔe.

The pots also and the besomes, and the instruments of musicke, and the basins, and the incense dishes, and all the vessels of brasse wherewith they ministred, tooke they away.

19 Ɔhene awɛmfo sahene no faa nkankyee, nkankyee ntrantraa, ɔpete nkuruwa, nkuku, kaneannua, nsanka, mprɛte ne nkuruwa a wɔde di ɔnom afɔrebɔ ho dwuma no kɔe; wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ ankasa anaa dwetɛ na ɛyɛɛ eyinom nyinaa.

And the bowles, and the ashpannes, and the basins, and the pots, and the candlestickes, and the incense dishes, and the cuppes, and all that was of golde, and that was of siluer, tooke the chiefe steward away,

20 Kɔbere mfrafrae a wɔde yɛɛ afadum abien no, Po no ne anantwinini dumien a ɛwɔ nʼase ne nnyinaso a wɔmema so, na wontumi nkari saa nneɛma a Ɔhene Salomo yɛɛ wɔ Awurade asɔredan mu yi mu duru.

With the two pillars, one Sea, and twelue brasen bulles, that were vnder the bases, which King Salomon had made in ye house of ye Lord: the brasse of all these vessels was without weight.

21 Na afadum no biara sorokɔ yɛ anammɔn aduonu ason na ne dantaban mu nso yɛ anammɔn dunwɔtwe. Emu da tokuru na ne hankare no mu piw yɛ nsateaa anan.

And concerning the pillars, the height of one pillar was eighteene cubites, and a threede of twelue cubites did compasse it, and the thicknesse thereof was foure fingers: it was holowe.

22 Na kɔbere mfrafrae ntaaso a esi ɔfadum baako so no sorokɔ yɛ anammɔn ason ne fa a, wɔde kɔbere mfrafrae atoaa ahyehyɛ ho nyinaa ahyia. Afadum a aka no nso a wɔde kɔbere mfrafrae atoaa ahyehyɛ ho no te sɛ baako no.

And a chapiter of brasse was vpon it, and the height of one chapiter was fiue cubites with networke, and pomegranates vpon the chapiters round about, all of brasse: the seconde pillar also, and the pomegranates were like vnto these.

23 Na Kɔbere mfrafrae atoaa aba a ɛsensɛn ntaaso no ano no yɛ aduɔkron asia, na nea ɛkata ntaaso no ho yɛ ɔha.

And there were ninetie and sixe pomegranates on a side: and all the pomegranates vpon the net worke were an hundreth round about.

24 Awɛmfo no sahene no faa ɔsɔfopanyin Seraia, abediakyiri Sefania ne ɔponanoahwɛfo baasa no nnommum.

And the chiefe steward tooke Sheraiah the chiefe Priest, and Zephaniah the seconde Priest, and the three keepers of the doore.

25 Ɔfaa ɔpanyin a otua asraafo no ano, ne adehye afotufo baason fii nnipa a na wɔda so wɔ kuropɔn no mu no mu. Afei ɔfaa ɔkyerɛwfo a na ɔyɛ adwumayɛfo panyin ma wɔn a wɔfa nnipa ma wɔkɔyɛ asraafo wɔ asase no so, ne nʼadwumayɛfo no mu aduosia a ohuu wɔn wɔ kuropɔn no mu no.

Hee tooke also out of the citie an Eunuch, which had the ouersight of the men of warre, and seuen men that were in the Kings presence, which were founde in the citie, and Sopher captayne of the hoste who mustered the people of the lande, and threescore men of the people of the land, that were found in the middes of the citie.

26 Ɔsahene Nebusaradan de wɔn nyinaa kɔɔ Babiloniahene anim wɔ Ribla.

Nebuzar-adan the chiefe stewarde tooke them, and brought them to the king of Babel to Riblah.

27 Ɔhene no ma wokunkum wɔn wɔ Ribla a ɛwɔ Hamat. Enti wotwaa Yuda asu fii nʼasase so.

And the king of Babel smote them, and slewe them in Riblah, in the lande of Hamath: thus Iudah was caried away captiue out of his owne land.

28 Nnipa dodow a Nebukadnessar de wɔn kɔɔ nkoasom mu ni: nʼahenni afe a ɛto so ason mu, Yudafo 3,023;

This is the people, whome Nebuchad-nezzar caried away captiue, in the seuenth yeere, euen three thousande Iewes, and three and twentie.

29 Nebukadnessar ahenni afe a ɛto so dunwɔtwe mu, nnipa a wofi Yerusalem, 832;

In the eightenth yere of Nebuchad-nezzar he caried away captiue from Ierusalem eight hundreth thirtie and two persons.

30 nʼahenni afe a ɛto so aduonu abiɛsa mu, ɔsahene Nebusaradan, a otua ɔhene awɛmfo ano no de Yudafo 745 kɔɔ nnommum mu. Nnipa no nyinaa dodow yɛ 4,600.

In the three and twentieth yeere of Nebuchad-nezzar, Nebuzar-adan the chiefe stewarde caried away captiue of the Iewes seuen hundreth fourtie and fiue persons: all the persons were foure thousand and sixe hundreth.

31 Yudahene Yehoiakyin nnommumfa afe a ɛto so aduasa ason mu a Ewil-Merodak bɛyɛɛ Babiloniahene no, oyii Yudahene Yehoiakyin fii afiase wɔ ɔsram a ɛto so dumien no da a ɛto so aduonu anum.

And in the seuen and thirtieth yeere of the captiuitie of Iehoiachin King of Iudah, in the twelfth moneth, in the fiue and twentieth day of the moneth, Euil-merodach King of Babel, in the first yeere of his reigne, lifted vp the head of Iehoiachin King of Iudah, and brought him out of pryson,

32 Ɔkaa abodwosɛm kyerɛɛ no, na ɔmaa no dibea a ɛwɔ anuonyam sen ahemfo a wɔne no wɔ Babilonia no de.

And spake kindly vnto him, and set his throne aboue the throne of the Kings, that were with him in Babel,

33 Enti Yehoiakin yii nʼafiase ntade guu nkyɛn, na efi saa da no odidii wɔ ɔhene didipon so bere biara, kosii ne wuda.

And changed his pryson garmentes, and he did continually eate bread before him all the dayes of his life.

34 Na Babiloniahene no san maa Yehoiakin sika bere ano bere ano, ma ɔde tuatua ne ho aka, kosii ne wuda.

His porcion was a continuall portion giuen him of ye king of Babel, euery day a certaine, all the dayes of his life vntill he died.
