Ii Paralipomenon 36
1 tulit ergo populus terrae Ioachaz filium Iosiae et constituit regem pro patre suo in Hierusalem
And the people of the land took Jehoahaz, son of Josiah, —and made him king instead of his father, in Jerusalem.
2 viginti trium annorum erat Ioachaz cum regnare coepisset et tribus mensibus regnavit in Hierusalem
Twenty-three years old, was Joahaz when he began to reign, —and, three months, reigned he in Jerusalem.
3 amovit autem eum rex Aegypti cum venisset Hierusalem et condemnavit terram centum talentis argenti et talento auri
And the king of Egypt deposed him in Jerusalem, —and condemned the land, in a hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
4 constituitque regem pro eo Eliacim fratrem eius super Iudam et Hierusalem et vertit nomen eius Ioacim ipsum vero Ioachaz tulit secum et adduxit in Aegyptum
And the king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and changed his name to Jehoiakim, —but Neco took, Joahaz his brother, and carried him to Egypt.
5 viginti quinque annorum erat Ioacim cum regnare coepisset et undecim annis regnavit in Hierusalem fecitque malum coram Domino Deo suo
Twenty-five years old, was Jehoiakim when he began to reign, and, eleven years, reigned he in Jerusalem, —and he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh his God.
6 contra hunc ascendit Nabuchodonosor rex Chaldeorum et vinctum catenis duxit in Babylonem
Against him, came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, —and bound him in fetters of bronze, to carry him to Babylon.
7 ad quam et vasa Domini transtulit et posuit ea in templo suo
And, some of the utensils of the house of Yahweh, did Nebuchadnezzar carry to Babylon, —and put them in his own temple in Babylon.
8 reliqua autem verborum Ioacim et abominationum eius quas operatus est et quae inventa sunt in eo continentur in libro regum Israhel et Iuda regnavitque Ioachin filius eius pro eo
But, the rest of the story of Jehoiakim, and his abominations which he made, and that which was found upon him, there they are, written in the book of the Kings of Israel and Judah, —and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.
9 octo annorum erat Ioachin cum regnare coepisset et tribus mensibus ac decem diebus regnavit in Hierusalem fecitque malum in conspectu Domini
Eight years old, was Jehoiachin when he began to reign, and, three months and ten days, reigned he in Jerusalem, and he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh;
10 cumque anni circulus volveretur misit Nabuchodonosor rex qui et adduxerunt eum in Babylonem asportatis simul pretiosissimis vasis domus Domini regem vero constituit Sedeciam fratrem eius super Iudam et Hierusalem
and, when the year came round, King Nebuchadnezzar sent, and carried him to Babylon, with the precious utensils of the house of Yahweh, —and made Zedekiah his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem.
11 viginti et unius anni erat Sedecias cum regnare coepisset et undecim annis regnavit in Hierusalem
Twenty-one years old, was Zedekiah when he began to reign, —and, eleven years, reigned he in Jerusalem.
12 fecitque malum in oculis Domini Dei sui nec erubuit faciem Hieremiae prophetae loquentis ad se ex ore Domini
And he did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh his God, -he humbled not himself before Jeremiah the prophet, from the mouth of Yahweh.
13 a rege quoque Nabuchodonosor recessit qui adiuraverat eum per Deum et induravit cervicem suam et cor ut non reverteretur ad Dominum Deum Israhel
Moreover also—against King Nebuchadnezzar, he rebelled, who had made him swear by God, -and he stiffened his neck, and emboldened his heart, from turning unto Yahweh, God of Israel.
14 sed et universi principes sacerdotum et populus praevaricati sunt inique iuxta universas abominationes gentium et polluerunt domum Domini quam sanctificaverat sibi in Hierusalem
Also, all the rulers of the priests and of the people, abounded in committing treachery, according to all the abominable ways of the nations, —and polluted the house of Yahweh, which he had hallowed in Jerusalem.
15 mittebat autem Dominus Deus patrum suorum ad illos per manum nuntiorum suorum de nocte consurgens et cotidie commonens eo quod parceret populo et habitaculo suo
And, though Yahweh God of their fathers sent unto them through his messengers, zealously sending them, —because he had compassion upon his people and upon his habitation,
16 at illi subsannabant nuntios Dei et parvipendebant sermones eius inludebantque prophetis donec ascenderet furor Domini in populum eius et esset nulla curatio
yet became they mockers of the messengers of God, and despisers of his words, and mimics of his prophets, —until the mounting up of the wrath of Yahweh against his people, until there was no healing.
17 adduxit enim super eos regem Chaldeorum et interfecit iuvenes eorum gladio in domo sanctuarii sui non est misertus adulescentis et virginis et senis nec decrepiti quidem sed omnes tradidit manibus eius
So he brought up against them the king of the Chaldeans, who slew their young men with the sword, in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion upon young man or virgin, elder or ancient, -all, delivered he into his hand.
18 universaque vasa domus Domini tam maiora quam minora et thesauros templi et regis et principum transtulit in Babylonem
And, all the utensils of the house of God, both great and small, and the treasures of the house of Yahweh, and the treasures of the king and of his rulers, the whole, carried he to Babylon;
19 incenderunt hostes domum Dei destruxerunt murum Hierusalem universas turres conbuserunt et quicquid pretiosum fuerat demoliti sunt
and they burned the house of God, and threw down the wall of Jerusalem, —and, all the palaces thereof, burned they with fire, and, all the precious vessels thereof, he destroyed;
20 si quis evaserat gladium ductus in Babylonem servivit regi et filiis eius donec imperaret rex Persarum
and he exiled the remnant left from the sword, into Babylon, —where they became his and his sons, as servants, until the reign of the kingdom of Persia:
21 et conpleretur sermo Domini ex ore Hieremiae et celebraret terra sabbata sua cunctis enim diebus desolationis egit sabbatum usque dum conplerentur septuaginta anni
to fulfil the word of God, by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had paid off her sabbaths, —all the days of her lying desolate, she kept sabbath, to fulfil seventy years.
22 anno autem primo Cyri regis Persarum ad explendum sermonem Domini quem locutus fuerat per os Hieremiae suscitavit Dominus spiritum Cyri regis Persarum qui iussit praedicari in universo regno suo etiam per scripturam dicens
But, in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, to accomplish the word of God by the mouth of Jeremiah, Yahweh aroused the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he made proclamation throughout all his kingdom, moreover also in writing, saying:
23 haec dicit Cyrus rex Persarum omnia regna terrae dedit mihi Dominus Deus caeli et ipse praecepit mihi ut aedificarem ei domum in Hierusalem quae est in Iudaea quis ex vobis est in omni populo eius sit Dominus Deus suus cum eo et ascendat
Thus, saith Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth, hath Yahweh God of the heavens, given unto me, and, he himself, hath laid charge upon me, to build to him a house, in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Who is there among you of all his people with whom is Yahweh his God? Then let him go up.
