And the people of the land took Joachaz the son of Josias, and anointed him, and made him king over Jerusalem in the room of his father.
2 Tre och tjugu åra gammal var Joahas, då han Konung vardt och regerade i tre månader i Jerusalem.
Joachaz [was] twenty-three years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Amital, daughter of Jeremias of Lobna. And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his fathers had done. And Pharao Nechao bound him in Deblatha in the land of Aemath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem.
3 Ty Konungen i Egypten satte honom af i Jerusalem, och beskattade landet till hundrade centener silfver, och en centener guld.
And the king brought him over to Egypt; and imposed a tribute on the land, a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
4 Och Konungen i Egypten gjorde Eliakim, hans broder, till Konung öfver Juda och Jerusalem, och förvände hans namn Jojakim; men Necho tog hans broder Joahas, och förde honom uti Egypten.
And Pharao Nechao made Eliakim the son of Josias king over Juda in the room of his father Josias, and changed his name [to] Joakim. And Pharao Nechao took his brother Joachaz and brought him into Egypt, and he died there: but [he] had given the silver and gold to Pharao. At that time the land began to be taxed to give the money at the command of Pharao; and every one as he could borrowed the silver and the gold of the people of the land, to give to Pharao Nechao.
5 Fem och tjugu åra gammal var Jojakim, då han Konung vardt; och regerade ellofva år i Jerusalem, och gjorde det ondt var för Herranom sinom Gud.
Joachim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.
6 Och NebucadNezar, Konungen i Babel, drog upp emot honom, och band honom med kedjor, att han skulle föra honom till Babel.
And Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came up against him, and bound him with brazen fetters, and carried him away to Babylon.
7 Och förde NebucadNezar någor Herrans hus kärile till Babel, och satte dem uti sitt tempel i Babel.
And he carried away a part of the vessels of the house of the Lord to Babylon, and put them in his temple in Babylon.
8 Hvad nu mer af Jojakim sägande är, och hans styggelse, som han gjorde, och med honom funnen vordo, si, de äro skrifne uti Israels och Juda Konungars bok: och hans son Jojachin vardt Konung i hans stad.
And the rest of the acts of Joakim, and all that he did, behold, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda? And Joakim slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in Ganozae: and Jechonias his son reigned in his stead.
9 Åtta åra gammal var Jojachin, då han Konung vardt, och regerade i tre månader och tio dagar i Jerusalem, och gjorde det Herranom illa behagade.
Jechonias [was] eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem, and did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.
10 Då nu året omgick, sände NebucadNezar, och lät hemta honom till Babel, med de kosteliga tygen i Herrans hus; och man gjorde Zedekia hans broder till Konung öfver Juda och Jerusalem.
And at the turn of the year, king Nabuchodonosor sent, and brought him to Babylon, with the precious vessels of the house of the Lord, and made Sedekias his father's brother king over Juda and Jerusalem.
11 Ett och tjugu åra gammal var Zedekia, då han Konung vardt; och regerade ellofva år i Jerusalem;
Sedekias [was] twenty-one years old when he began to reign, and be reigned eleven years in Jerusalem.
12 Och gjorde det ondt var för Herranom sinom Gud, och ödmjukade sig intet för den Propheten Jeremia, som talade utaf Herrans mun.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord his God: he was not ashamed before the prophet Jeremias, nor because of the word of the Lord;
13 Dertill vardt han affällig ifrå NebucadNezar, Konungenom i Babel, hvilken af honom en ed vid Gud tagit hade; och vardt halsstyf, och förstockade sitt hjerta, så att han intet omvände sig till Herran Israels Gud.
in that he rebelled against king Nabuchodonosor, which he adjured him by God [not to do]: but he stiffened his neck, and hardened his heart, so as not to return to the Lord God of Israel.
14 Sammalunda alle öfverstarna ibland Presterna, samt med folket, syndade svårliga, och förtogo sig med allahanda Hedningastyggelse, och orenade Herrans hus, det han helgat hade i Jerusalem.
And all the great men of Juda, and the priests, and the people of the land transgressed abundantly in the abominations of the heathen, and polluted the house of the Lord which [was] in Jerusalem.
15 Och Herren deras fäders Gud sände till dem med sin bådskap bittida; ty han skonade sitt folk och sina boning.
And the Lord God of their fathers sent by the hand of his prophets; rising early and sending his messengers, for he spared his people, and his sanctuary.
16 Men de begabbade Guds bådskap, och föraktade hans ord, och bespottade hans Propheter, intilldess Herrans grymhet växte öfver hans folk, att dem nu intet mer stod till botande.
Nevertheless they sneered at his messengers, and set at nothing his words, and mocked his prophets, until the wrath of the Lord rose up against his people, till there was no remedy.
17 Ty han förde öfver dem de Chaldeers Konung, och lät dräpa deras unga män med svärd, uti deras helgedoms huse, och skonade hvarken piltar eller pigor, hvarken åldrigom eller utgamlom; alla gaf han dem i hans hand.
And he brought against them the king of the Chaldeans, and killed their young men with the sword in the house of his sanctuary, and did not spare Sedekias, and had no mercy upon their virgins, and they led away their old men: he delivered all things into their hands.
18 Och all tyg i Guds hus, stor och små, håfvorna i Herrans hus, och Konungens och hans Förstars håfvor; allt lät han föra till Babel.
And all the vessels of the house of God, the great and the small, and the treasures of the house of the Lord, and all the treasures of the king and the great men; he brought all to Babylon.
19 Och de brände upp Guds hus, och bröto ned murarna i Jerusalem; och all deras palats brände de upp med eld, så att all deras kosteliga ting blefvo förfaren.
And he burnt the house of the Lord, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt its palaces with fire, and [utterly destroyed] every beautiful vessel.
20 Och de som för svärdet undsluppo, fördes till Babel, och vordo hans och hans söners trälar, tilldess riket kom till de Perser;
And he carried away the remnant to Babylon; and they were servants to him and to his sons until [the establishment of] the kingdom of the Medes.
21 På det att fullkomnas skulle Herrans ord genom Jeremia mun, tilldess att landet hade fyllest i sina Sabbather; förty hele tiden af förderfvelsen var Sabbath, intilldess sjutio år fullkomnade vordo.
That the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias might be fulfilled, until the land should enjoy its sabbaths in resting [and] sabbath keeping all the days of its desolation, till the accomplishment of seventy years.
22 Men i första årena Cores, Konungens i Persien, på det fullkomnadt skulle varda Herrans ord, taladt genom Jeremia mun, uppväckte Herren Cores anda, Konungens i Persien, att han lät utropa öfver allt sitt rike, ja ock med bref, och säga:
In the first year of Cyrus king of the Persians, after the fulfillment of the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of the Persians, and told him to make proclamation in writing throughout all his kingdom, saying,
23 Detta säger Cores, Konungen i Persien: Herren Gud af himmelen hafver gifvit mig all rike i landen, och hafver befallt mig bygga sig ett hus i Jerusalem i Juda; hvilken som nu ibland eder är af hans folk, med honom vare Herren hans Gud, och drage ditupp.
Thus says Cyrus king of the Persians to all the kingdoms of the earth, The Lord God of heaven has given me [power], and he has commanded me to build a house to him in Jerusalem, in Judea. Who [is there] of you of all his people? His God shall be with him, and let him go up.
