< 2 Kings 25 >

1 In the ninth year of Zedekiah's reign, on the tenth day of the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, attacked Jerusalem with his entire army. He set up camp around the city and built siege ramps against the walls.
И бысть в лето девятое царства его, в месяц десятый, прииде Навуходоносор царь Вавилонский и вся сила его на Иерусалим: и обступи его отвсюду, и создаша окрест его бойницы.
2 The city remained under siege until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
И бысть град во облежении до первагонадесять лета царства Седекиина, девятаго дне месяца:
3 By the ninth day of the fourth month, the famine in the city was so bad that the people had nothing left to eat.
и превозможе во граде глад, и не бысть хлеба людем земли тоя:
4 Then the city wall was broken through, and all the soldiers escaped at night through the gate between the two walls by the king's garden, even though the Babylonians had the city surrounded. They ran away in the direction of the Arabah,
и разседеся град, и вси мужие воинстии изыдоша нощию путем врат, яже посреде стен, яже суть у вертограда царева, и Халдее окрест града (беша). И побеже (царь Седекиа) путем пустынным:
5 but the Babylonian army chased after the king and caught up with him on the plains of Jericho. His whole army had scattered and left him.
и погна сила Халдейская вслед царя, и яша его во Аравофе Иерихонстем, и вся сила его разсыпася от него:
6 They captured the king and took him to the king of Babylon at Riblah, where he was sentenced.
и пояша царя и поведоша его к царю Вавилонску в Ревлафу: и глагола с ним суд:
7 They slaughtered Zedekiah's sons while he watched, and then gouged out his eyes, bound him in bronze shackles, and took him to Babylon.
и сыны Седекиины закла пред очима его, и очи Седекиины избоде, и связа его узами, и отведе его во Вавилон.
8 On the seventh day of the fifth month, in the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan, the commander of the guard, an officer of the king of Babylon, entered Jerusalem.
В месяц же пятый, в седмый день месяца, сие лето девятоенадесять Навуходоносора царя Вавилонска, прииде Навузардан архимагир, раб царя Вавилонскаго, во Иерусалим
9 He burned down the Lord's Temple, the royal palace, and all the large buildings of Jerusalem.
и зажже храм Господень и дом царев, и вся домы Иерусалимли и вся домы великия сожже архимагир:
10 The whole Babylonian army under the commander of the guard knocked down the walls around Jerusalem.
и стены Иерусалимли окрест раскопа сила Халдейская.
11 Nebuzaradan, the commander of the guard, deported those who were left in the city, even those who had gone over to the side of the king of Babylon, as well as the rest of the population.
И останок людий избывших во граде и впадших, иже отпадоша ко царю Вавилонску, и прочее и утверждение пренесе Навузардан воевода.
12 But the commander of the guard allowed the poor people who were left in the country to stay and take care of the vineyards and the fields.
И от нищих земли тоя остави архимагир винограды блюсти и вертограды.
13 The Babylonians broke into pieces the bronze pillars, the movable carts, and the bronze Sea that belonged to the Lord's Temple, and they took all the bronze to Babylon.
И столпы медяны в храме Господни, и подставы, и море медное сущее во храме Господни сокрушиша Халдее, и взяша медь их во Вавилон:
14 They also took all the pots, shovels, lamp snuffers, dishes, and all the other bronze items used in the Temple service.
и конобы, и котлы и фиалы, и кадилницы, и вся сосуды медяныя, в нихже служаху, взяша:
15 The commander of the guard removed the censers and bowls, anything that was made of pure gold or silver.
и кадилницы, и фиалы златыя и сребряныя взя архимагир,
16 The amount of bronze that came from the two columns, the Sea and the movable carts, which Solomon had made for the Lord's Temple, all of this weighed more than could be measured.
столпы два, и моря едино, и подставы, яже сотвори Соломон храму Господню: не бе веса меди всех сосудов.
17 Each column was eighteen cubits tall. The bronze capital on top of one column was three cubits high, with a network of bronze pomegranates around it. The second column was the same, and also had a decorative network.
Осминадесяти лакот бысть высота столпа единаго, и глава медяна на нем: и высота главе три лакти, и на главе мрежи и шипки окрест, вся медяна: по сему же и столп вторый со мрежею.
18 The commander of the guard took as prisoners Seraiah, the chief priest, Zephaniah the priest, second in rank, and the three Temple doorkeepers.
И поят архимагир Сареа жерца перваго и Софонию жерца втораго, и три стражы вратныя:
19 From those left in the city he took the officer in charge of the soldiers, and five of the king's advisors. He also took the secretary to the army commander who was in charge of calling up the people for military service, and sixty other men who were present in the city.
и от града взя скопца единаго, иже бе приставник над мужи военными, и пять мужей предстоящих пред лицем царевым, обретшихся во граде, и книгочиа князя силы, иже строяше люди земли тоя, и шестьдесят мужей людий земли тоя обретшихся во граде:
20 Nebuzaradan, the commander of the guard, took them and brought them before the king of Babylon at Riblah.
и поят я Навузардан архимагир, и приведе я к царю Вавилонскому в Ревлафу.
21 The king of Babylon had them executed at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So the people of Judah had to leave their land.
И порази их царь Вавилонский, и умори я в Ревлафе, в земли Емафове. И преселися Иуда свыше земли своея.
22 Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, appointed Gedaliah, son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, as governor over the people he had left in the land of Judah.
И людие оставшиися в земли Иудове, ихже остави Навуходоносор царь Вавилонский, и постави над ними Годолию, сына Ахикамля, сына Сафаня.
23 When all the army officers of Judah and their men learned that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedaliah as governor, they and their men met with Gedaliah at Mizpah. They included: Ishmael son of Nethaniah, Johanan, son of Kareah, Seraiah, son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, Jaazaniah, son of the Maakathite.
И услышаша вси князи силы сами и мужие их, яко постави царь Вавилонский Годолию, и приидоша к Годолии в Массифу, и Исмаил сын Нафаниин, и Иоанан сын Карифов, и Сараиа сын Фанамафов Нетофафитский, и Иезониа сын Махаффов, сами и мужие их (приидоша).
24 Gedaliah swore an oath to them and their men, telling them, “Don't be afraid of the Babylonian officials. Stay here in the land and serve the king of Babylon, and you'll be fine.”
И клятся им Годолиа и мужем их и рече им: не бойтеся пришествия Халдеев: седите на земли и работайте царю Вавилонскому, и добро будет вам.
25 But in the seventh month, Ishmael, son of Nethaniah, son of Elishama, of royal blood, came with ten men. They attacked and killed Gedaliah, along with the men of Judea and Babylonians who were with him at Mizpah.
И бысть в месяц седмый, прииде Исмаил сын Нафаниин сына Елисамля от семене царска, и десять мужей с ним, и порази Годолию, и умре, и Иудеев и Халдеев, иже с ним бяху в Массифе.
26 As a result, all the people, from the least to the greatest, along with the army commanders, ran away to Egypt, terrified of what the Babylonians would do.
И восташа вси людие, от мала и до велика, и князи сил, и внидоша во Египет, яко убояшася от лица Халдейска.
27 In the year Evil-merodach became king of Babylon, he released Jehoiachin, king of Judah, from prison. This happened on the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth month of the thirty-seventh year of the exile of Jehoiachin, king of Judah.
И бысть в лето тридесять седмое преселения Иоахина царя Иудина, в дванадесятый месяц, в двадесять седмый день месяца, вознесе Евилмародах царь Вавилонский, в лето царства своего, главу Иоахина царя Иудина, и изведе его из дому темницы его,
28 The king of Babylon treated him well him and gave him a position of honor higher than the other kings there with him in Babylon.
и глагола с ним благая, и даде престол ему свыше престолов царей, иже бяху с ним в Вавилоне:
29 So Jehoiachin was able to remove his prison clothes, and he ate frequently at the king's table for the rest of his life.
и измени ризы его темничныя, и ядяше хлеб с ним всегда, во вся дни живота своего.
30 The king provided Jehoiachin with a daily allowance for the rest of his life.
И пища его от дому царска давана бяше, и все изобилие во дни его, во вся дни живота его.
