< 2 Kings 24 >

1 In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years: then he turned and rebelled against him.
‌ʻI hono ngaahi ʻaho ʻoʻona naʻe ʻalu hake ai ʻa Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone, pea naʻe hoko ʻa Sihoiakimi ko ʻene tamaioʻeiki ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu: pea hili ia naʻa ne toe angatuʻu kiate ia.
2 And the LORD sent against him bands of the Chaldeans, and bands of the Syrians, and bands of the Moabites, and bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by the hand of his servants the prophets.
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova kiate ia ʻae kautau ʻoe kakai Kalitia mo e kautau ʻoe kakai Silia, mo e kautau ʻoe kakai Moape, mo e kautau ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, pea ne fekauʻi ʻakinautolu ke tauʻi ʻa Siuta, ke fakaʻauha ia, ʻo fakatatau ki he folofola ʻa Sihova ʻaia naʻa ne folofola ai ʻi heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki ko e kau palōfita.
3 Surely at the commandment of the LORD came this upon Judah, to remove them out of his sight, for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did;
Ko e moʻoni naʻe hoko ʻae meʻa ni ki Siuta ʻi he fekau ʻa Sihova, ke hiki ʻakinautolu mei hono ʻao, koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi angahala ʻa Manase, ʻo fakatatau ki he meʻa kotoa pē naʻa ne fai;
4 and also for the innocent blood that he shed; for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood: and the LORD would not pardon.
Pea koeʻuhi foki ko e toto māʻoniʻoni naʻa ne lilingi: he naʻa ne fakapito ʻa Selūsalema ʻi he toto māʻoniʻoni; ʻaia naʻe ʻikai finangalo ʻa Sihova ke fakamolemole.
5 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Pea ko e toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Sihoiakimi, mo ia kotoa pē naʻa ne fai ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Siuta?
6 So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.
Pea naʻe mohe ʻa Sihoiakimi mo ʻene ngaahi tamai: pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe hono foha ko Sihoiakini.
7 And the king of Egypt came not again any more out of his land: for the king of Babylon had taken, from the brook of Egypt unto the river Euphrates, all that pertained to the king of Egypt.
Pea naʻe ʻikai toe haʻu ʻae tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite mei hono fonua: he naʻe maʻu ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻaia kotoa pē naʻe ʻoe tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, mei he vaitafe ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻo aʻu ki he vaitafe ko ʻIufaletesi.
8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign; and he reigned in Jerusalem three months: and his mother’s name was Nehushta the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
Naʻe hongofulu ma valu taʻu ʻae motuʻa ʻo Sihoiakini ʻi heʻene kamata ʻene pule, pea naʻe pule ia ʻi Selūsalema ʻi he māhina ʻe tolu. Pea ko e hingoa ʻo ʻene faʻē ko Nehusita, ko e ʻofefine ʻo Elinatani ʻo Selūsalema.
9 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father had done.
Pea naʻe fai ʻe ia ʻae kovi ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻo hangē ko ia kotoa pē naʻe fai ʻe heʻene tamai.
10 At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up to Jerusalem, and the city was besieged.
ʻI he kuonga ko ia naʻe haʻu ai ʻae kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone ke tauʻi ʻa Selūsalema, pea naʻe kāpui ʻae kolo ʻaki ʻae tau.
11 And Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came unto the city, while his servants were besieging it;
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻa Nepukanesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Papilone ke tauʻi ʻae kolo, pea naʻe kāpui ia ʻe heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki,
12 and Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon, he, and his mother, and his servants, and his princes, and his officers: and the king of Babylon took him in the eighth year of his reign.
Pea naʻe ʻalu kituʻa ʻa Sihoiakini ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone, ʻaia mo ʻene faʻē, mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, mo ʻene houʻeiki, mo ʻene kau matāpule: pea naʻe puke ia ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻi hono valu taʻu ʻo ʻene pule.
13 And he carried out thence all the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king’s house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of the LORD, as the LORD had said.
Pea naʻa ne fetuku mei ai ʻae ngaahi koloa kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova, mo e ngaahi koloa mei he fale ʻoe tuʻi, pea naʻa ne tuʻutuʻu ke iiki ʻae ngaahi ipu koula ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻe Solomone ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi he faletapu ʻo Sihova, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova.
14 And he carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valour, even ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and the smiths; none remained, save the poorest sort of the people of the land.
Pea naʻa ne fetuku ʻo ʻave ʻae kakai Selūsalema kotoa pē mo e ngaahi houʻeiki kotoa pē, mo e kau tangata toʻa kotoa pē, ʻio, ko e pōpula ʻe tokotaha mano, mo e kau tangata tufunga mo e kau tufunga ukamea: naʻe ʻikai toe ha [kakai], ka ko e kakai masiva ʻaupito ʻoe fonua.
15 And he carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon; and the king’s mother, and the king’s wives, and his officers, and the chief men of the land, carried he into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon.
Pea naʻa ne ʻave ʻa Sihoiakini ki Papilone, mo e faʻē ʻae tuʻi, mo e ngaahi uaifi ʻoe tuʻi, mo ʻene kau matāpule, mo e kau mālohi ʻoe fonua, naʻa ne fetuku pōpula ʻakinautolu mei Selūsalema ki Papilone.
16 And all the men of might, even seven thousand, and the craftsmen and the smiths a thousand, all of them strong and apt for war, even them the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon.
Pea ko e kau tangata toʻa kotoa pē, ʻio, ʻae toko fitu afe, mo e kau tufunga kehekehe, mo e kau tuki ukamea, ko e toko taha afe, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē naʻe mālohi mo poto ʻi he tau, naʻe fetuku pōpula ʻakinautolu ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ki Papilone.
17 And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah his father’s brother king in his stead, and changed his name to Zedekiah.
Pea naʻe fakanofo ʻe he tuʻi ʻo Papilone ʻa Matania ko e tokoua ʻo ʻene tamai ke tuʻi ia ko hono fetongi, pea naʻa ne liliu hono hingoa ko Setikia.
18 Zedekiah was twenty and 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.
Naʻe uofulu ma taha ʻae taʻu ʻae motuʻa ʻo Setikia ʻi heʻene kamata ʻene pule, pea naʻe pule ia ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma taha ʻi Selūsalema. Pea ko e hingoa ʻo ʻene faʻē ko Hamutali, ko e ʻofefine ia ʻo Selemaia ʻo Lipina.
19 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
Pea naʻe fai kovi ʻe ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, ʻo hangē ko ia kotoa pē naʻe fai ʻe Sihoiakimi.
20 For through the anger of the LORD did it come to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence: and Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
He ko e meʻa ʻi he houhau ʻa Sihova naʻe hoko eni ki Selūsalema mo Siuta, pea koeʻuhi ke ne liʻaki ʻakinautolu mei hono ʻao, naʻe fai ʻae angatuʻu ʻa Setikia ki he tuʻi ʻo Papilone.
