2 Kings 24
1 While Jehoiakim was ruling [Judah, the army of] King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon invaded Judah. [They defeated the Judean army, and as a result, ] Jehoiakim was required to pay a lot of tribute/taxes to King Nebuchadnezzar. But after three years, Jehoiakim rebelled.
За његовог времена дође Навуходоносор цар вавилонски; и Јоаким му би слуга три године; потом одуста и одметну се од њега.
2 Then Yahweh sent raiders from Babylonia and Syria, and from the Moab and Ammon people-groups, to attack the people of Judah and get rid of them, just as Yahweh had told his prophets to warn the people would happen.
И Господ посла на њ чете халдејске и чете сирске и чете моавске и чете синова Амонових; посла их на Јуду да га потру, по речи Господњој коју говори преко слуга својих пророка.
3 These things happened to the people of Judah according to what Yahweh commanded. [He had decided] to get rid of the people of Judah because of the many sins that King Manasseh [had committed].
По заповести Господњој зби се то Јуди да би га одбацио од себе за грехе Манасијине по свему што беше учинио;
4 Manasseh had even caused many innocent people in Jerusalem to be killed, and Yahweh would not forgive that.
И за крв праву коју беше пролио напунивши Јерусалим крви праве; зато Господ не хте опростити.
5 The other things that happened while Jehoiakim was king, and all the things that he did, are written in the scroll called ‘The History of the Kings of Judah’.
А остала дела Јоакимова и све што је учинио, није ли записано у дневнику царева Јудиних?
6 When Jehoiakim died, his son Jehoiachin became the king.
И почину Јоаким код отаца својих; а на његово се место зацари Јоахин.
7 [The army of] the king of Babylon [defeated the army of Egypt, and] took control of all the area that the Egyptians formerly controlled, from the brook [at the border] of Egypt [in the south] to the Euphrates River [in the north]. So [the army of] the king of Egypt did not return [to attack Judah] again.
А цар мисирски не изађе више из земље своје, јер цар вавилонски узе од реке мисирске до реке Ефрата све што беше цара мисирског.
8 Jehoiachin was 18 years old when he became the king of Judah. His mother’s name was Nehushta; she was the daughter of a man from Jerusalem named Elnathan. Jehoiachin ruled in Jerusalem for [only] three months.
Осамнаест година беше Јоахину кад се зацари, и царова три месеца у Јерусалиму. Матери му беше име Неуста, кћи Елнатанова, из Јерусалима.
9 Jehoiachin did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil, just as his father had done.
И он чињаше зло пред Господом сасвим како је чинио отац његов.
10 [While Jehoiachin was king, ] some officers of King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon came [along with the whole Babylonian army] to Jerusalem, and they surrounded the city.
У то време дођоше слуге Навуходоносора, цара вавилонског на Јерусалим, и град би опкољен.
11 While they were doing that, Nebuchadnezzar himself came to the city.
Дође и Навуходоносор, цар вавилонски на град кад га слуге његове опколише.
12 Then King Jehoiachin and his mother and his advisors and important officers and palace officials all surrendered to the Babylonian army. These thngs happened when Nebuchadnezzar had been king for eight years. He arrested Jehoiachin and took him to Babylon.
Тада Јоахин, цар Јудин изађе к цару вавилонском с матером својом и са слугама својим и с кнезовима својим и с дворанима својим; а цар га вавилонски зароби осме године свог царовања.
13 Just as Yahweh had said would happen, Nebuchadnezzar’s [soldiers] took [to Babylon] all the valuable things from Yahweh’s temple and from the king’s palace. They cut apart all the gold items that King Solomon had put in the temple.
И однесе све благо дома Господњег и благо дома царског, и полупа све судове златне, које беше начинио Соломун, цар Израиљев за цркву Господњу, као што беше рекао Господ.
14 They took from Jerusalem [to Babylon] 10,000 people, including the important officials and the best soldiers and the people who made and repaired things that were made of metal. Only the very poor people were left in Judah.
И пресели сав Јерусалим, све кнезове и све јунаке, десет хиљада робова, и све дрводеље и све коваче, не оста ништа осим сиромашног народа по земљи.
15 Nebuchadnezzar’s soldiers also took to Babylon Jehoiachin’s wives and officials, his mother, and [all] the important people.
Одведе и Јоахина у Вавилон и матер цареву и жене цареве и дворане његове, и главаре земаљске одведе у ропство из Јерусалима у Вавилон.
16 They also took to Babylon 7,000 of the best soldiers and 1,000 men who knew how to make and repair things that are made from metal. All of these people whom they took were strong and able to fight in wars.
И све јунаке на број седам хиљада, и дрводеље и коваче, хиљаду, све што беху за војску одведе цар вавилонски у Вавилон у ропство.
17 Then the king of Babylon appointed Jehoiachin’s uncle, Mattaniah, to be the king [of Judah], and he changed Mattaniah’s name to Zedekiah.
И постави царем цар вавилонски на место Јоахиново Матанију, стрица његовог, и преде му име Седекија.
18 When Zedekiah was twenty-one years old, he became king, and he ruled in Jerusalem for eleven years. His mother’s name was Hamutal; she was the daughter of a man named Jeremiah from Libnah [town].
Двадесет и једна година беше Седекији кад поче царовати, и царова једанаест година у Јерусалиму. Матери му беше име Амутала, кћи Јеремијина, из Ливне.
19 But Zedekiah did many things that Yahweh considered to be evil, just as Jehoiakim had done.
Он чињаше што је зло пред Господом сасвим како је чинио Јоаким.
20 Yahweh was very angry. So (and finally/after he had been patient a long time) he expelled the people of Jerusalem and [the other places in] Judah and sent them to Babylon. [That is what happened when] Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
Јер од гнева Господњег зби се то Јерусалиму и Јуди, да их одбаци од себе. А Седекија се одметну од цара вавилонског.
