2 Chronicles 36
1 Àwọn ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà mú Jehoahasi ọmọ Josiah wọn sì fi jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu ni ipò baba rẹ̀.
Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz son of Josiah and made him king in Jerusalem in place of his father.
2 Jehoahasi sì jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mẹ́tàlélógún nígbà tí ó di ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún oṣù mẹ́ta.
Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months.
3 Ọba Ejibiti yọ kúrò lórí ìtẹ́ ní Jerusalẹmu, ó sì bù fún un lórí Juda, ọgọ́rùn-ún tálẹ́ǹtì fàdákà àti tálẹ́ǹtì wúrà kan.
And the king of Egypt dethroned him in Jerusalem and imposed on Judah a levy of a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
4 Ọba Ejibiti sì mú Eliakimu, arákùnrin Joahasi, jẹ ọba lórí Juda àti Jerusalẹmu, ó sì yí orúkọ Eliakimu padà sí Jehoiakimu, ṣùgbọ́n Neko mú Joahasi arákùnrin Eliakimu lọ sí Ejibiti.
Then Neco king of Egypt made Eliakim brother of Jehoahaz king over Judah and Jerusalem, and he changed Eliakim’s name to Jehoiakim. But Neco took Eliakim’s brother Jehoahaz and carried him off to Egypt.
5 Jehoiakimu sì jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dọ́gbọ̀n nígbà tí ó di ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún méjìlá. Ó sì ṣe búburú ní ojú Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ̀.
Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. And he did evil in the sight of the LORD his God.
6 Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli sì mú un, ó sì dè é pẹ̀lú ẹ̀wọ̀n láti mú un lọ sí Babeli.
Then Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up against Jehoiakim and bound him with bronze shackles to take him to Babylon.
7 Nebukadnessari kó nínú ohun èlò ilé Olúwa lọ si Babeli pẹ̀lú, ó sì fi wọn sí ààfin rẹ̀ ní Babeli.
Nebuchadnezzar also took to Babylon some of the articles from the house of the LORD, and he put them in his temple in Babylon.
8 Ìyókù iṣẹ́ ìjọba Jehoiakimu, àwọn ohun ìríra tí ó ṣe àti gbogbo ohun tí a rí nípa rẹ̀, ni a kọ sínú ìwé àwọn ọba Israẹli àti Juda. Jehoiakini ọmọ rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
As for the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, the abominations he committed, and all that was found against him, they are indeed written in the Book of the Kings of Israel and Judah. And his son Jehoiachin reigned in his place.
9 Jehoiakini sì jẹ́ ẹni ọdún méjìdínlógún nígbà tí ó di ọba, ó sì jẹ́ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún oṣù mẹ́ta àti ọjọ́ mẹ́wàá ó sì ṣe búburú ní ojú Olúwa.
Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months and ten days. And he did evil in the sight of the LORD.
10 Ní àkókò òjò, ọba Nebukadnessari ránṣẹ́ sí i ó sì mú un wá sí Babeli, pẹ̀lú ohun èlò dáradára láti ilé Olúwa, ó sì mú arákùnrin Jehoiakini, Sedekiah, jẹ ọba lórí Juda àti Jerusalẹmu.
In the spring, King Nebuchadnezzar summoned Jehoiachin and brought him to Babylon, along with the articles of value from the house of the LORD. And he made Jehoiachin’s relative Zedekiah king over Judah and Jerusalem.
11 Sedekiah jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mọ́kànlélógún nígbà tí ó di ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mọ́kànlá.
Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years.
12 Ó sì ṣe búburú ní ojú Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ̀, kò sì rẹ ara rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ níwájú Jeremiah wòlíì ẹni tí ó sọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa.
And he did evil in the sight of the LORD his God and did not humble himself before Jeremiah the prophet, who spoke for the LORD.
13 Ó sì tún ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí ọba Nebukadnessari pẹ̀lú, ẹni tí ó mú kí ó fi orúkọ Ọlọ́run búra. Ó sì di ọlọ́run líle, ó sì mú ọkàn rẹ̀ le láti má lè yípadà sí Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli.
He also rebelled against King Nebuchadnezzar, who had made him swear by God. But Zedekiah stiffened his neck and hardened his heart against turning to the LORD, the God of Israel.
14 Síwájú sí i gbogbo àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn ènìyàn sì di ẹni tí ń dẹ́ṣẹ̀ gidigidi, pẹ̀lú gbogbo ìríra àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè wọ́n sì sọ ilé Olúwa di èérí, tí ó ti yà sí mímọ́ ní Jerusalẹmu.
Furthermore, all the leaders of the priests and the people multiplied their unfaithful deeds, following all the abominations of the nations, and they defiled the house of the LORD, which He had consecrated in Jerusalem.
15 Olúwa, Ọlọ́run àwọn baba wọn ránṣẹ́ sí wọn láti ọwọ́ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ síwájú àti síwájú sí i, nítorí tí ó ní ìyọ́nú sí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ àti sí ibùgbé rẹ̀.
Again and again the LORD, the God of their fathers, sent word to His people through His messengers because He had compassion on them and on His dwelling place.
16 Ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n ń kùn sí àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Ọlọ́run, wọ́n kẹ́gàn ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n fi àwọn wòlíì rẹ̀ ṣẹ̀sín títí tí ìbínú Olúwa fi ru sórí wọn, sí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ kò sì ṣí àtúnṣe.
But they mocked the messengers of God, despising His words and scoffing at His prophets, until the wrath of the LORD against His people was stirred up beyond remedy.
17 Ó sì mú wá sórí wọn ọba àwọn ará Babeli tí wọ́n bá àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin wọn jà pẹ̀lú idà ní ilẹ̀ ibi mímọ́, kò sì ní ìyọ́nú sí àgbà ọkùnrin tàbí ọ̀dọ́mọdébìnrin, wúńdíá, tàbí arúgbó. Ọlọ́run sì fi gbogbo wọn lé Nebukadnessari lọ́wọ́.
So He brought up against them the king of the Chaldeans, who put their young men to the sword in the sanctuary, sparing neither young men nor young women, neither elderly nor infirm. God gave them all into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar,
18 Ó sì mú gbogbo ohun èlò láti ilé Ọlọ́run lọ sí Babeli, ńlá àti kékeré àti ìṣúra ilé Olúwa àti ìṣúra ọba àti ìjòyè rẹ̀.
who carried off everything to Babylon—all the articles of the house of God, both large and small, and the treasures of the house of the LORD and of the king and his officials.
19 Wọ́n sì fi iná sun ilé Ọlọ́run, wọ́n sì wó gbogbo ògiri ilé Jerusalẹmu, wọ́n sì jó gbogbo ààfin wọn, wọ́n sì ba gbogbo ohun èlò ibẹ̀ jẹ́.
Then the Chaldeans set fire to the house of God and broke down the wall of Jerusalem. They burned down all the palaces and destroyed every article of value.
20 Ó sì kó èyí tí ó kù lọ sí Babeli àwọn tí ó rí ibi sá kúrò lẹ́nu idà wọ́n sì di ìránṣẹ́ fún un àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ títí tí ìjọba Persia fi gba agbára.
Those who escaped the sword were carried by Nebuchadnezzar into exile in Babylon, and they became servants to him and his sons until the kingdom of Persia came to power.
21 Ilẹ̀ náà sì gbádùn ìsinmi rẹ̀, ní gbogbo ìgbà ìdahoro, òun sì ń sinmi títí àádọ́rin ọdún fi pé ní ìmúṣẹ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí a sọ láti ẹnu Jeremiah.
So the land enjoyed its Sabbath rest all the days of the desolation, until seventy years were completed, in fulfillment of the word of the LORD through Jeremiah.
22 Ní ọdún kìn-ín-ní Kirusi ọba Persia, kí ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí a tẹnu Jeremiah sọ bá à le ṣẹ pé, Olúwa run ẹ̀mí Kirusi ọba Persia láti ṣe ìkéde ní gbogbo ìjọba rẹ̀, ó sì kọ ọ́ sínú ìwé pẹ̀lú.
In the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, to fulfill the word of the LORD spoken through Jeremiah, the LORD stirred the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia to send a proclamation throughout his kingdom and to put it in writing as follows:
23 “Èyí ni ohun tí Kirusi ọba Persia sọ wí pé: “‘Olúwa, Ọlọ́run ọ̀run, ti fún mí ní gbogbo ìjọba ayé yìí, ó sì ti yàn mí láti kọ́ ilé Olúwa fún òun ní Jerusalẹmu ti Juda. Ẹnikẹ́ni nínú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ láàrín yín le gòkè lọ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀; kí Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ̀ kí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.’”
“This is what Cyrus king of Persia says: ‘The LORD, the God of heaven, who has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, has appointed me to build a house for Him at Jerusalem in Judah. Whoever among you belongs to His people, may the LORD his God be with him, and may he go up.’”
