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 Jehoiakim's days, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon attacked Judah; Jehoiakim became his servant for three years. Then Jehoiakim turned back and rebelled against Nebuchadnezzar.
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.
Yahweh sent against Jehoiakim bands of Chaldeans, Arameans, Moabites, and Ammonites; he sent them against Judah to destroy it. This was in conformity with the word of Yahweh that had been spoken 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.
It was certainly at the mouth of Yahweh that this came on Judah, to remove them out of his sight, because of the sins of Manasseh, all that he did,
4 Àti pẹ̀lú ẹ̀jẹ̀ aláìṣẹ̀ tí a ta sílẹ̀ nítorí ó ti kún Jerusalẹmu pẹ̀lú ẹ̀jẹ̀ aláìṣẹ̀ tí Olúwa kò sì fẹ́ láti dáríjì.
and also because of the innocent blood that he shed, for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood. Yahweh was not willing to pardon that.
5 Ní ti ìyókù iṣẹ́ ìjọba Jehoiakimu, àti gbogbo nǹkan tí ó ṣe, ṣé wọn kò kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ìtàn ọba Juda?
As for the other matters concerning Jehoiakim, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Judah?
6 Jehoiakimu sùn pẹ̀lú baba rẹ̀, Jehoiakini ọmọ rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
Jehoiakim slept with his ancestors, and Jehoiachin his son became king in his place.
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.
The king of Egypt did not attack any more out of his land, because the king of Babylon had conquered all the lands that had been controlled by the king of Egypt, from the brook of Egypt to the Euphrates River.
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.
Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign; he reigned in Jerusalem three months. His mother's name was Nehushta; she was the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
9 Ó sì ṣe búburú ní ojú Olúwa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí baba rẹ̀ ti ṣe.
He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh; he did 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 the army of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon attacked Jerusalem and besieged the city.
11 Nebukadnessari ọba Babeli fúnra rẹ̀ wá sókè sí ìlú nígbà tí àwọn ìránṣẹ́ fi ogun dó tì í.
Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to the city while his soldiers were besieging 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.
and Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon, he, his mother, his servants, his princes, and his officers. The king of Babylon captured him in the eighth year of his own 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.
Nebuchadnezzar took out from there all the valuable things in the house of Yahweh, and those in the king's palace. He cut into pieces all the golden objects that Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of Yahweh, as Yahweh had said would happen.
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.
He took into exile all Jerusalem, all the leaders, and all the fighting men, ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and the smiths. No one was left except the poorest people in 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.
Nebuchadnezzar took Jehoiachin into exile at Babylon, as well as the king's mother, wives, officers, and the chief men of the land. He took them into exile 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.
All the fighting men, seven thousand in number, and one thousand craftsmen and blacksmiths, all of them fit for fighting—the king of Babylon brought these men into exile at Babylon.
17 Ọba Babeli sì mú Mattaniah arákùnrin baba Jehoiakini, jẹ ọba ní ìlú rẹ̀ ó sì yí orúkọ rẹ̀ padà sí Sedekiah.
The king of Babylon made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin's father's brother, king in his place, 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.
Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign; he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Hamutal; she was the daughter of Jeremiah from Libnah.
19 Ó sì ṣe búburú ní ojú Olúwa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Jehoiakimu ti ṣe.
He did what was evil in the sight of Yahweh; he did 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.
Through Yahweh's anger, all these events happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until he drove them out of his presence. Then Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
