Jeremiah 52
1 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
Sedekia dii ade no, na wadi mfirihyia aduonu baako. Odii ade wɔ Yerusalem mfirihyia dubaako. Na ne na din de Hamutal a ɔyɛ Yeremia a ofi Libna no babea.
2 He did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
Ɔyɛɛ bɔne wɔ Awurade ani so, sɛnea Yehoiakim yɛe no.
3 For through the anger of the LORD it happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence. Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
Awurade abufuw nti na eyinom nyinaa baa Yerusalem ne Yuda so, na akyiri no, oyii nʼani fii wɔn so. Afei, Sedekia sɔre tiaa Babiloniahene.
4 It happened in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and camped against it; and they built forts against it round about.
Ɔsram Tebet (bɛyɛ Ɔpɛpɔn) da a ɛto so dunum wɔ Sedekia ahenni mfe akron so no, ɔhene Nebukadnessar dii nʼakofo nyinaa anim, bɛko tiaa Yerusalem. Wotwaa kuropɔn no ho hyiae. Wɔbobɔɔ mpampim wɔ kuropɔn no afasu ho.
5 So the city was besieged to the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
Wotuaa kuropɔn no kosii Ɔhene Sedekia adedi afe a ɛto so dubaako no mu.
6 In the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was severe in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
Eduu ɔsram a ɛto so anan no da a ɛto so akron no, na ɔkɔm a asi kuropɔn no mu no ano ayɛ den a mu nnipa no nnya aduan nni.
7 Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled, and went forth out of the city by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king's garden; (now the Chaldeans were against the city all around; ) and they went toward the Arabah.
Na wɔpaee kuropɔn no fasu mu, na asraafo no nyinaa guanee. Wɔfaa ɔhene turo mu fii kuropɔn no mu anadwo, kɔfaa ɔpon a ɛwɔ afasu abien no ntam, de wɔn ani kyerɛɛ Araba.
8 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
Nanso Babilonia asraafo no taa Ɔhene Sedekia kɔtoo no wɔ Yeriko tataw so. Na nʼasraafo no nyinaa afi ne ho abɔ ahwete,
9 Then they took the king, and carried him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he gave judgment on him.
na wɔkyeree no. Wɔfaa no dommum de no kɔmaa Babiloniahene wɔ Ribla a ɛwɔ Hamat asase so, na hɔ na obuu no atɛn.
10 The king of Babylon killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes: he killed also all the officials of Judah in Riblah.
Ribla hɔ na Babiloniahene kunkum Sedekia mmabarima wɔ nʼanim na okum Yudafo adwumayɛfo nyinaa nso.
11 He put out the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon bound him in fetters, and carried him to Babylon, and put him in prison until the day of his death.
Afei otutuu Sedekia ani, de kɔbere mfrafrae mpokyerɛ guu no sɛ ɔde no rekɔ Babilonia, hɔ na ɔde no too afiase kosii ne wuda.
12 Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, who stood before the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem:
Ab ɔsram (bɛyɛ Ɔsannaa) da ɛto so dunan wɔ afe a ɛyɛ Nebukadnessar mfe dunkron adedi mu no, Nebusaradan a ɔyɛ awɛmfo so panyin a ɔyɛ Babiloniahene mpanyimfo no mu baako no kɔɔ Yerusalem.
13 and he burned the house of the LORD, and the king's house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house, burned he with fire.
Ɔde ogya too Awurade asɔredan, ahemfi ne afi a ɛwɔ Yerusalem nyinaa mu. Ɔhyew ofi biara a edi mu.
14 All the army of the Chaldeans, who were with the captain of the guard, broke down all the walls of Jerusalem all around.
Awɛmfo so panyin no hwɛ maa Babilonia asraafo no bubuu Yerusalem afasu no.
15 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the poorest of the people, and the residue of the people who were left in the city, and those who fell away, who fell to the king of Babylon, and the residue of the multitude.
Ɔsahene Nebusaradan a na otua awɛmfo no ano no faa wɔn a wodi hia no mu bi, wɔn a wɔkaa kuropɔn no mu, adwumfo a wɔaka ne wɔn a wɔkɔdɔm Babiloniahene no kɔɔ nnommum mu.
16 But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poorest of the land to be vineyard keepers and farmers.
Nanso Nebusaradan gyaa wɔn a wodi hia wɔ asase no so no nkae sɛ wɔnhwɛ bobe nturo ne mfuw no.
17 The Chaldeans broke the pillars of bronze that were in the house of the LORD, and the bases and the bronze sea that were in the house of the LORD in pieces, and carried all their bronze to Babylon.
Babiloniafo no bubuu kɔbere mfrafrae afadum, nnyinasode a wotumi moma so ne kɔbere mfrafrae Po a na ɛwɔ Awurade asɔredan mu, na wɔde kɔbere mfrafrae no nyinaa kɔɔ Babilonia.
18 They also took away the pots, the shovels, the snuffers, the basins, the spoons, and all the vessels of bronze with which they ministered.
Afei wɔfaa nkuku, nsofi, kanea ntamabamma ntwitwaso, ɔpete nkuruwa, nsanka, mprɛte ne kɔbere mfrafrae nneɛma a wɔde yɛ ɔsom adwuma wɔ asɔredan mu no nso kɔe.
19 The captain of the guard took away the cups, the fire pans, the basins, the pots, the lampstands, the spoons, and the bowls; that which was of gold, in gold, and that which was of silver, in silver.
Ɔhene awɛmfo sahene no faa nkankyee, nkankyee ntrantraa, ɔpete nkuruwa, nkuku, kaneannua, nsanka, mprɛte ne nkuruwa a wɔde di ɔnom afɔrebɔ ho dwuma no kɔe; wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ ankasa anaa dwetɛ na ɛyɛɛ eyinom nyinaa.
20 They took the two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve bronze bulls that were under the sea, and the stands which king Solomon had made for the house of the LORD. The bronze of all these vessels was without weight.
Kɔbere mfrafrae a wɔde yɛɛ afadum abien no, Po no ne anantwinini dumien a ɛwɔ nʼase ne nnyinaso a wɔmema so, na wontumi nkari saa nneɛma a Ɔhene Salomo yɛɛ wɔ Awurade asɔredan mu yi mu duru.
21 As for the pillars, the height of the one pillar was eight feet seven inches; and a line of twenty feet eight inches encircled it; and its thickness was almost three inches. It was hollow.
Na afadum no biara sorokɔ yɛ anammɔn aduonu ason na ne dantaban mu nso yɛ anammɔn dunwɔtwe. Emu da tokuru na ne hankare no mu piw yɛ nsateaa anan.
22 A capital of bronze was on it; and the height of the one capital was eight feet seven inches, with network and pomegranates on the capital all around, all of bronze: and the second pillar also had like these, and pomegranates.
Na kɔbere mfrafrae ntaaso a esi ɔfadum baako so no sorokɔ yɛ anammɔn ason ne fa a, wɔde kɔbere mfrafrae atoaa ahyehyɛ ho nyinaa ahyia. Afadum a aka no nso a wɔde kɔbere mfrafrae atoaa ahyehyɛ ho no te sɛ baako no.
23 There were ninety-six pomegranates on the sides; all the pomegranates were one hundred on the network all around.
Na Kɔbere mfrafrae atoaa aba a ɛsensɛn ntaaso no ano no yɛ aduɔkron asia, na nea ɛkata ntaaso no ho yɛ ɔha.
24 The captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold:
Awɛmfo no sahene no faa ɔsɔfopanyin Seraia, abediakyiri Sefania ne ɔponanoahwɛfo baasa no nnommum.
25 and out of the city he took an officer who was set over the men of war; and seven men of those who saw the king's face, who were found in the city; and the scribe of the captain of the army, who mustered the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land, who were found in the midst of the city.
Ɔfaa ɔpanyin a otua asraafo no ano, ne adehye afotufo baason fii nnipa a na wɔda so wɔ kuropɔn no mu no mu. Afei ɔfaa ɔkyerɛwfo a na ɔyɛ adwumayɛfo panyin ma wɔn a wɔfa nnipa ma wɔkɔyɛ asraafo wɔ asase no so, ne nʼadwumayɛfo no mu aduosia a ohuu wɔn wɔ kuropɔn no mu no.
26 Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
Ɔsahene Nebusaradan de wɔn nyinaa kɔɔ Babiloniahene anim wɔ Ribla.
27 The king of Babylon struck them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his land.
Ɔhene no ma wokunkum wɔn wɔ Ribla a ɛwɔ Hamat. Enti wotwaa Yuda asu fii nʼasase so.
28 This is the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away captive: in the seventh year three thousand twenty-three Jews;
Nnipa dodow a Nebukadnessar de wɔn kɔɔ nkoasom mu ni: nʼahenni afe a ɛto so ason mu, Yudafo 3,023;
29 in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar he carried away captive from Jerusalem eight hundred thirty-two persons;
Nebukadnessar ahenni afe a ɛto so dunwɔtwe mu, nnipa a wofi Yerusalem, 832;
30 in the three and twentieth year of Nebuchadnezzar Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the Jews seven hundred forty-five persons: all the persons were four thousand and six hundred.
nʼahenni afe a ɛto so aduonu abiɛsa mu, ɔsahene Nebusaradan, a otua ɔhene awɛmfo ano no de Yudafo 745 kɔɔ nnommum mu. Nnipa no nyinaa dodow yɛ 4,600.
31 It happened in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the five and twentieth day of the month, that Awil-Marduk king of Babylon, in the first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought him forth out of prison;
Yudahene Yehoiakyin nnommumfa afe a ɛto so aduasa ason mu a Ewil-Merodak bɛyɛɛ Babiloniahene no, oyii Yudahene Yehoiakyin fii afiase wɔ ɔsram a ɛto so dumien no da a ɛto so aduonu anum.
32 and he spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon,
Ɔkaa abodwosɛm kyerɛɛ no, na ɔmaa no dibea a ɛwɔ anuonyam sen ahemfo a wɔne no wɔ Babilonia no de.
33 and changed his prison garments. Jehoiachin ate bread before him continually all the days of his life:
Enti Yehoiakin yii nʼafiase ntade guu nkyɛn, na efi saa da no odidii wɔ ɔhene didipon so bere biara, kosii ne wuda.
34 and for his allowance, there was a continual allowance given him by the king of Babylon, every day a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
Na Babiloniahene no san maa Yehoiakin sika bere ano bere ano, ma ɔde tuatua ne ho aka, kosii ne wuda.
