Jeremiah 52
1 Zedekiah was a son of twenty-one years when he first began to reign. And he reigned for eleven years in Jerusalem. And the name of his mother was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah from Libnah.
Eitt og tjuge år gamall var Sidkia då vart konge, og elleve år rådde han i Jerusalem. Mor hans heitte Hamital Jeremiadotter, frå Libna.
2 And he did what was evil in the eyes of the Lord, in accord with all that Jehoiakim had done.
Han gjorde det som vondt var i Herrens augo, plent som Jojakim.
3 And so the fury of the Lord was toward Jerusalem, and toward Judah, even until he cast them away from his face. And Zedekiah drew away from the king of Babylon.
Det var for Herrens harm skuld det gjekk so med Jerusalem og Juda, til dess han støytte deim burt frå si åsyn. Sidkia fall ifrå Babel-kongen.
4 And it happened that, in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, he and his entire army, came against Jerusalem. And they besieged it, and they built fortifications against it, on every side.
I det niande styringsåret hans, den tiande dagen i den tiande månaden, kom Nebukadressar, Babel-kongen, med heile heren sin til Jerusalem, lægra seg utanfor byen og bygde skansar rundt ikring honom.
5 And the city was besieged, until the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
Byen vart kringsett til kong Sidkias ellevte styringsår.
6 Then, in the fourth month, on the ninth of the month, a famine gripped the city. And there was no nourishment for the people of the land.
I den fjorde månaden, den niande dagen i månaden, røynde svolten hardt på i byen, og landsfolket hadde inkje mat.
7 And the city was broken, and all the men of war fled, and they departed from the city at night by way of the gate which is between the two walls, and which leads to the king’s garden, while the Chaldeans were besieging the city all around, and they went away by the road that leads to the wilderness.
Då vart bymuren gjenombroten, og alt stridsfolket rømde og for ut or byen um natti gjenom porten i dubbelmuren ved kongshagen, medan kaldæarane låg rundt ikring byen. Dei tok leidi til Moarne.
8 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king. And they overtook Zedekiah in the desert which is near Jericho. And all of his companions fled away from him.
Men kaldæarheren sette etter kongen og nådde Sidkia att på Moarne ved Jeriko. Alt herfolket sprang frå honom og spreiddest.
9 And when they had captured the king, they led him away to the king of Babylon at Riblah, which is in the land of Hamath. And he spoke a judgment against him.
Dei fanga då kongen og førde honom upp til Babel-kongen, til Ribla i Hamatlandet, og han sagde upp domen yver honom.
10 And the king of Babylon cut the throats of the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he also killed all the leaders of Judah at Riblah.
Og Babel-kongen drap sønerne åt Sidkia medan han såg på det; sameleis drap han alle hovdingarne i Juda der i Ribla.
11 And he plucked out the eyes of Zedekiah, and he bound him with shackles, and the king of Babylon led him away to Babylon, and he placed him in the prison house, even until the day of his death.
So stakk han ut augo på Sidkia, batt honom med tvo koparlekkjor og førde honom til Babel og sette honom i fangehus, der var han til sin døyande dag.
12 Then, in the fifth month, on the tenth of the month, which is the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, arrived. And he was standing before the king of Babylon at Jerusalem.
Og i den femte månaden, den tiande dagen i månaden, i det nittande styringsåret åt Babel-kongen Nebukadressar, kom livvakthovdingen Nebuzaradan, som stod for Babel-kongens åsyn, til Jerusalem.
13 And he set fire to the house of the Lord, and to the house of the king, and to all the houses of Jerusalem. And every great house he burned with fire.
Han brende upp Herrens hus og kongsgarden, ja, alle husi i Jerusalem og alle storfolk-hus sette han eld på.
14 And the entire army of the Chaldeans, who were with the chief of the military, destroyed the entire wall all around Jerusalem.
Og heile kaldæarheren som var med livvakthovdingen, reiv ned alle murarne ikring Jerusalem.
15 Then Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, took away some of the poor people, and some of the rest of the common people, who had remained in the city, and some of the fugitives, who had fled over to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.
Og sume av ålmugen og resten av folket som var att i byen, og rømingarne som hadde gjenge yver til Babel-kongen, og den flokken som var att dessforutan, førde livvakthovdingen Nebuzaradan burt.
16 Yet truly, some of the poor of the land, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, left behind as vinedressers and farmers.
Nokre av fatigfolket let livvakthovdingen Nebuzaradan vera att til å arbeida i vinhagarne og på åkrarne.
17 The Chaldeans also broke apart the bronze pillars that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the sea of brass that was in the house of the Lord. And they took all the brass of these things to Babylon.
Koparsulorne som høyrde til Herrens hus, og fotstykki og koparhavet som var i Herrens hus, braut kaldæarane sund, og førde all koparen av deim til Babel.
18 And they took the cooking pots, and the hooks, and the psalteries, and the bowls, and the little mortars, and all the bronze vessels that had been used in the ministry.
Og dei tok oskefati og eldskuflerne og ljossakserne og blodbollarne og skålerne og alle kopargognere som dei hadde til gudstenesta.
19 And the chief of the military took the water pots, and the censers, and the pitchers, and the basins, and the lampstands, and the mortars, and the little cups, whatever was gold, for the gold, and whatever was silver, for the silver,
Og livvakthovdingen tok fati og glodpannorne og blodbollarne og oskefati og ljosestakarne og fati og bollarne, alt som var av gull og sylv.
20 as well as the two pillars, and the one brass sea, and the twelve oxen of brass that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made in the house of the Lord. There was no weight of brass left behind out of all these vessels.
Tvo sulor og eit hav og dei tolv koparuksarne som var under fotstykki, som kong Salomo hadde laga åt Herrens hus - koparen i alle desse gognerne var ikkje vegande.
21 Now concerning the pillars, one pillar was eighteen cubits high, and a cord of twelve cubits encircled it. Moreover, its thickness was four fingers, and the interior was hollow.
Um sulorne er å segja: Den eine sula var attan alner høg, og ein tråd på tolv alner gjekk ikring henne, og ho var fire fingrar tjukk og innhol.
22 And heads of brass were upon both. And the height of one head was five cubits. And little nets with pomegranates were upon the heads all around, all of brass. The second pillar was similar, and the pomegranates.
Og det var eit sulehovud på henne av kopar, og det eine sulehovudet var fem alner høgt, og det var krot og granateple rundt ikring på sulehovudet, alt av kopar. Og likeins var det på den andre sula og granateple.
23 And there were ninety-six pomegranates hanging down; and there were one hundred pomegranates in all, surrounded by the little nets.
Og granatepli var seks og nitti utetter; alle granatepli på krotverket var eit hundrad rundt ikring.
24 And the chief of the military took Seraiah, the first priest, and Zephaniah, the second priest, and the three keepers of the vestibule.
Livvakthovdingen tok øvstepresten Seraja og den næst øvste presten Sefanja og dei tri dørstokkvaktarane,
25 He also took from the city one eunuch who was in charge of the men of war, and seven men among those who served before the face of the king, who were found in the city, and a scribe, a leader of the military, who tested the new recruits, and sixty men from the people of the land, who were found in the midst of the city.
og frå byen tok han ein hirdmann som var uppsynsmann yver herfolket, og sju mann som han råka på i byen av næmaste lagsfolket hjå kongen, dessutan skrivaren til herhovdingen, han som skreiv ut landsfolket til hertenesta, og seksti mann av landsfolket som han råka på i byen;
26 Then Nebuzaradan, the chief of the military, took them, and he led them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
deim tok livvakthovdingen Nebuzaradan og førde deim til Babel-kongen i Ribla.
27 And the king of Babylon struck them and put them to death at Riblah, in the land of Hamath. And Judah was carried away from his land.
Og Babel-kongen slo deim i hel der i Ribla i Hamatlandet. Soleis vart Juda burtført frå landet sitt.
28 This is the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty-three Jews;
Dette er det folket som Nebukadressar førde burt: I det sjuande året tri tusund og tri og tjuge jødar;
29 in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, eight hundred thirty-two souls from Jerusalem;
i Nebukadressars attande år åtte hundrad og tvo og tretti sjæler frå Jerusalem;
30 in the twenty-third year of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuzaradan, the chief of the military, carried away of the Jews seven hundred forty-five souls. Therefore, all the souls were four thousand six hundred.
i Nebukadressars tri og tjugande år førde Nebuzaradan, livvakthovdingen, burt av jødarne sju hundrad og fem og fyrti sjæler; fire tusund og seks hundrad sjæler i alt.
31 And it happened that, in the thirty-seventh year of the transmigration of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-fifth of the month, Evilmerodach, the king of Babylon, in the very first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, and he brought him out of the prison house.
I det sju og trettiande året etter Juda-kongen Jojakin var burtførd, den fem og tjugande dagen i den tolvte månaden, gav Evil-Merodak, Babel-kongen - same året som han vart konge - Jojakin, Juda-kongen, uppreisnad og tok honom ut or fangehuset.
32 And he spoke with him for good, and he set his throne above the thrones of the kings who were after him in Babylon.
Han helsa honom venleg og gav honom fremste sessen millom dei kongarne som var hjå honom i Babel.
33 And he changed his prison garments, and he ate bread in his sight always, all the days of his life.
Han fekk leggja av seg fangebunaden, og gjekk kvar dag til kongens bord, so lenge han livde.
34 And for his meals, a continual provision was allotted to him by the king of Babylon, a measure for every single day, until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
Kost og tæring naut han dagvisst på kongens kostnad til kvar dag det han trong for dagen, alt til sin døyande dag, heile si livetid.
