2 Chronicles 36
1 Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and made him king in his father’s stead in Jerusalem.
Tsono anthu a mʼdzikomo anatenga Yehowahazi mwana wa Yosiya namuyika kukhala mfumu mu Yerusalemu mʼmalo mwa abambo ake.
2 Jehoahaz was twenty and three years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem.
Yowahazi anali wa zaka 23 pamene anakhala mfumu ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu kwa miyezi itatu.
3 And the king of Egypt deposed him at Jerusalem, and imposed a fine on the land of an hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
Mfumu ya Igupto inamuchotsa pa udindo wa ufumu mu Yerusalemu ndipo inakhometsa msonkho dziko la Yuda wa makilogalamu 3,400 asiliva ndi agolide.
4 And the king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and changed his name to Jehoiakim. And Necho took Jehoahaz his brother, and carried him to Egypt.
Mfumu ya Igupto inakhazika Eliyakimu, mʼbale wake wa Yehowahazi kukhala mfumu ya Yuda ndi Yerusalemu ndipo anasintha dzina la Eliyakimu kukhala Yehoyakimu. Koma Neko anatenga Yowahazi mʼbale wake wa Eliyakimu ndi kupita naye ku Igupto.
5 Jehoiakim was twenty and 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 his God.
Yehoyakimu anali wa zaka 25 pamene anakhala mfumu, ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu zaka 11. Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wake.
6 Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
Nebukadinezara, mfumu ya ku Babuloni anachita naye nkhondo ndipo anamumanga ndi zingwe zamkuwa ndi kumutenga kupita naye ku Babuloni.
7 Nebuchadnezzar also carried of the vessels of the house of the LORD to Babylon, and put them in his temple at Babylon.
Nebukadinezara anatenganso zipangizo za ku Nyumba ya Yehova kupita nazo ku Babuloni ndipo anaziyika mʼnyumba ya Mulungu wake kumeneko.
8 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and his abominations which he did, and that which was found in him, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.
Zochitika zina za pa ulamuliro wa Yehoyakimu, zinthu zonyansa zimene anachita ndi zonse zinapezeka kuti zinali zomutsutsa zalembedwa mʼbuku la mafumu a Israeli ndi Yuda. Ndipo Yehoyakini mwana wake analowa ufumu mʼmalo mwake.
9 Jehoiachin was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.
Yehoyakini anali ndi zaka 21 pamene anakhala mfumu ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu kwa miyezi itatu ndi masiku khumi. Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova.
10 And when the year had ended, king Nebuchadnezzar sent, and brought him to Babylon, with the precious vessels of the house of the LORD, and made Zedekiah his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem.
Nthawi ya mphukira, mfumu Nebukadinezara inayitanitsa Yehoyakini ndipo inapita naye ku Babuloni, pamodzi ndi ziwiya zamtengowapatali za mʼNyumba ya Mulungu wa Yehova, ndipo anayika Zedekiya malume wake kukhala mfumu ya Yuda ndi Yerusalemu.
11 Zedekiah was one and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned eleven years in Jerusalem.
Zedekiya anali ndi zaka 21 pamene ankakhala mfumu, ndipo analamulira mu Yerusalemu zaka 11.
12 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD his God, and humbled not himself before Jeremiah the prophet speaking from the mouth of the LORD.
Iye anachita zoyipa pamaso pa Yehova Mulungu wake ndipo sanadzichepetse yekha pamaso pa mneneri Yeremiya amene ankayankhula mawu a Yehova.
13 And he also rebelled against king Nebuchadnezzar, who had made him swear by God: but he stiffened his neck, and hardened his heart from turning to the LORD God of Israel.
Iye anawukiranso mfumu Nebukadinezara amene anamulumbiritsa mʼdzina la Mulungu. Iyeyo anali wosamva ndipo anawumitsa mtima wake. Sanatembenukire kwa Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli.
14 Moreover all the chief of the priests, and the people, transgressed very much after all the abominations of the heathen; and polluted the house of the LORD which he had hallowed in Jerusalem.
Kuwonjezera apo, atsogoleri onse a ansembe ndi anthu ena anapitirapitira kukhala osakhulupirika, kutsatira machitidwe onse onyansa a mitundu ina ndi kudetsa Nyumba ya Yehova Mulungu wawo, imene anayipatula mu Yerusalemu.
15 And the LORD God of their fathers sent to them by his messengers, rising up early, and sending; because he had compassion on his people, and on his dwelling place:
Yehova, Mulungu wa makolo awo, ankatumiza mawu kwa iwo kudzera kwa amithenga ake kawirikawiri, chifukwa ankawamvera chisoni anthu ake ndi malo ake okhalapo.
16 But they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and misused his prophets, until the wrath of the LORD arose against his people, till there was no remedy.
Koma iwo ananyoza amithenga a Mulungu, anapeputsa mawu awo ndipo ankaseka aneneri ake mpaka anawutsa mkwiyo wa Yehova pa anthu ake ndipo panalibenso mankhwala owachiritsa.
17 Therefore he brought upon them the king of the Chaldees, who slew their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion upon young man or maiden, old man, or him that stooped for age: he gave them all into his hand.
Yehova anabweretsa mfumu ya anthu a ku Babuloni, imene inapha anyamata awo ndi lupanga ku malo opatulika, ndipo sanasiye kaya mnyamata kapena mtsikana, wamkulu kapena wokalamba. Mulungu anapereka onsewo kwa Nebukadinezara.
18 And all the vessels of the house of God, great and small, and the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king, and of his princes; all these he brought to Babylon.
Iye ananyamula kupita nazo ku Babuloni zipangizo zonse za mʼNyumba ya Yehova Mulungu wawo, zazikulu ndi zazingʼono zomwe, ndi chuma cha mʼNyumba ya Yehova ndiponso chuma cha mfumu ndi akuluakulu ake.
19 And they burnt the house of God, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt all its palaces with fire, and destroyed all its precious vessels.
Iwo anayatsa moto Nyumba ya Mulungu, ndipo anagwetsa makoma a Yerusalemu. Anatentha moto nyumba zonse zaufumu ndipo anawononga chilichonse chimene chinali chofunika.
20 And them that had escaped from the sword he carried away to Babylon; where they were servants to him and his sons until the reign of the kingdom of Persia:
Iye anagwira ukapolo anthu otsala amene anapulumuka ku lupanga ndi kupita nawo ku Babuloni, ndipo anakhala antchito ake ndi ana ake mpaka pamene ufumu wa Peresiya unakhazikitsidwa.
21 To fulfil the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed its sabbaths: for as long as it lay desolate it kept sabbath, to fulfil seventy years.
Dziko linakondwera ndi masabata ake. Pa nthawi yonse ya chipasuko chake nthaka inapuma, mpaka zaka 70 zinakwana pokwaniritsa mawu a Yehova amene anayankhula kudzera mwa Yeremiya.
22 Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the LORD spoken by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying,
Mʼchaka choyamba cha Koresi mfumu ya Peresiya, pofuna kukwaniritsa mawu a Yehova amene anayankhula kudzera mwa Yeremiya, Yehova anakhudza mtima wa mfumu ya Peresiya kuti alengeze mu ufumu wake wonse ndipo anazilemba:
23 Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth hath the LORD God of heaven given me; and he hath charged me to build him an house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Who is there among you of all his people? The LORD his God be with him, and let him go up.
Chimene mfumu Koresi ya Peresiya ikunena ndi ichi: “Yehova, Mulungu wakumwamba wandipatsa ine mafumu onse a dziko lapansi ndipo wandisankha kuti ndimumangire Nyumba ya Mulungu ku Yerusalemu ku Yuda. Aliyense wa anthu ake pakati panu, Yehova Mulungu wake akhale naye, ndipo apite.”
