2 Kings 24
1 Nígbà ìjọba Jehoiakimu, Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli gbógun sí ilẹ̀ náà, Jehoiakimu sì di ẹrú rẹ̀ fún ọdún mẹ́ta. Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà náà ó yí ọkàn rẹ̀ padà ó sì ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí Nebukadnessari.
In his days, came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, —and Jehoiakim became his servant three years, then turned he and rebelled against him.
2 Olúwa sì rán àwọn ará Babeli, àwọn ará Aramu, àwọn ará Moabu àti àwọn ọmọ Ammoni. Ó rán wọn láti pa Juda run, ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí ó ti sọ nípasẹ̀ àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀ wòlíì.
And Yahweh sent against him troops of Chaldeans, and troops of Syrians, and troops of Moabites, and troops of the sons of Ammon, yea he sent them against Judah, to destroy him, —according to the word of Yahweh, which he spake through his servants the prophets.
3 Nítòótọ́ eléyìí ṣẹlẹ̀ sí Juda gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣẹ Olúwa, láti mú wọn kúrò níwájú rẹ̀ nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Manase àti gbogbo nǹkan tí ó ṣe.
Surely, it was, because of the anger of Yahweh, that this came upon Judah, to remove them from his presence, —for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he had done:
4 Àti pẹ̀lú ẹ̀jẹ̀ aláìṣẹ̀ tí a ta sílẹ̀ nítorí ó ti kún Jerusalẹmu pẹ̀lú ẹ̀jẹ̀ aláìṣẹ̀ tí Olúwa kò sì fẹ́ láti dáríjì.
moreover also, for the innocent blood that he had shed, so that he had filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, —which Yahweh was not willing to pardon.
5 Ní ti ìyókù iṣẹ́ ìjọba Jehoiakimu, àti gbogbo nǹkan tí ó ṣe, ṣé wọn kò kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ìtàn ọba Juda?
Now, the rest of the story of Jehoiakim, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
6 Jehoiakimu sùn pẹ̀lú baba rẹ̀, Jehoiakini ọmọ rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers, —and, Jehoiachin his son, reigned, in his stead.
7 Ọba Ejibiti kò sì tún jáde ní ìlú rẹ̀ mọ́, nítorí ọba Babeli ti gba gbogbo agbègbè rẹ̀ láti odò Ejibiti lọ sí odò Eufurate.
And the king of Egypt came no more again out of his land, —for the king of Babylon had taken—from the ravine of Egypt, unto the river Euphrates, all that had belonged to the king of Egypt.
8 Jehoiakini jẹ́ ẹni ọdún méjìdínlógún nígbà tí ó di ọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún oṣù mẹ́ta. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ a sì máa jẹ́ Nehuṣita ọmọbìnrin Elnatani; ó wá láti Jerusalẹmu.
Eighteen years old, was Jehoiachin when he began to reign, and, three months, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, his mother’s name, was Nehushta daughter of Elnathan, of Jerusalem.
9 Ó sì ṣe búburú ní ojú Olúwa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí baba rẹ̀ ti ṣe.
And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —according to all that, his father, had done.
10 Ní àkókò náà àwọn ìránṣẹ́ Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli gbé ogun wá Jerusalẹmu, wọ́n sì gbé dó ti ìlú náà,
At that time, came up the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, unto Jerusalem, —and the city came into the siege.
11 Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli fúnra rẹ̀ wá sókè sí ìlú nígbà tí àwọn ìránṣẹ́ fi ogun dó tì í.
And Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came against the city, and his servants were about to besiege it.
12 Jehoiakini ọba Juda àti ìyá rẹ̀ àti àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀, àti àwọn ìwẹ̀fà àti àwọn ìjòyè gbogbo wọn sì jọ̀wọ́ ara wọn fún un. Ní ọdún kẹjọ ìjọba rẹ̀ ti ọba Babeli ó mú Jehoiakini ẹlẹ́wọ̀n.
Then came out Jehoiachin king of Judah, unto the king of Babylon, he and his mother, and his servants, and his generals, and his courtiers, —and the king of Babylon took him, in the eighth year of his reign.
13 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí Olúwa ti sọ Nebukadnessari kó gbogbo ìṣúra láti inú ilé Olúwa àti láti ilé ọba, ó sì mú u lọ gbogbo ohun èlò wúrà ti Solomoni ọba Israẹli ti kọ́ fún Olúwa.
And he carried forth from thence, all the treasures of the house of Yahweh, and the treasures of the house of the king, —and he cut off all the fittings of gold, which Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of Yahweh, according to all that, Yahweh, had spoken.
14 Ó kó wọn lọ sí ìgbèkùn gbogbo Jerusalẹmu: gbogbo ìjòyè àti àwọn akọni alágbára ọkùnrin, àti gbogbo oníṣọ̀nà àti ọlọ́nà tí àpapọ̀ rẹ̀ jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá, àwọn tálákà ènìyàn ilẹ̀ náà nìkan ni ó kù.
And he carried away all Jerusalem, and all the generals, and all the mighty men of valour, ten thousand becoming captives, and all the artificers and the smiths, —none remained save the poorest of the people of the land.
15 Nebukadnessari mú Jehoiakini ní ìgbèkùn lọ sí Babeli. Ó sì tún mú ìyá ọba láti Jerusalẹmu lọ sí Babeli, ìyàwó rẹ̀ àwọn ìjòyè rẹ̀ àti àwọn olórí ilé náà.
And he carried away captive Jehoiachin, to Babylon, —and, the king’s mother, and the king’s wives, and his courtiers, and the nobles of the land, took he away captive, from Jerusalem to Babylon.
16 Àti gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin ọlọ́lá tí ó jẹ́ ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbàárin alágbára ọkùnrin, àti àwọn oníṣọ̀nà àti alágbẹ̀dẹ, ẹgbẹ̀rún, gbogbo àwọn alágbára tí ó yẹ fún ogun ni ọba Babeli kó ní ìgbèkùn lọ sí Babeli.
And, all the men of might—seven thousand, and artificers and smiths—a thousand, all who were valiant and ready to make war, the king of Babylon brought them captive to Babylon.
17 Ọba Babeli sì mú Mattaniah arákùnrin baba Jehoiakini, jẹ ọba ní ìlú rẹ̀ ó sì yí orúkọ rẹ̀ padà sí Sedekiah.
And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah, his relative, king in his stead, —and changed his name to Zedekiah.
18 Sedekiah jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mọ́kànlélógún nígbà tí ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ṣe ìjọba, ó sì jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu fún ọdún mọ́kànlá. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ ni Hamutali ọmọbìnrin Jeremiah; ó sì wá láti Libina.
Twenty-one years old, was Zedekiah when he began to reign, and, eleven years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and, his mother’s name, was Hamutal, daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
19 Ó sì ṣe búburú ní ojú Olúwa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Jehoiakimu ti ṣe.
And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —according to all that, Jehoiakim, had done.
20 Nítorí tí ìbínú Olúwa, ni gbogbo èyí ṣe ṣẹ sí Jerusalẹmu, àti Juda, ní òpin ó ta wọ́n nù kúrò níwájú rẹ̀. Nísinsin yìí Sedekiah sì ṣọ̀tẹ̀ sí ọba Babeli.
For, it was because the anger of Yahweh had come against Jerusalem, and against Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled, against the king of Babylon.
