ارمیا 52

۱ 1 صدقیا بیست و یکساله بود که آغازسلطنت نمود و یازده سال در اورشلیم پادشاهی کرد و اسم مادرش حمیطل دختر ارمیااز لبنه بود.

Zedekiah was a son of twenty-one years when he first began to reign. And he reigned for eleven years in Jerusalem. And the name of his mother was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah from Libnah.

۲ 2 و آنچه در نظر خداوند ناپسند بودموافق هر‌آنچه یهویاقیم کرده بود، بعمل آورد.

And he did what was evil in the eyes of the Lord, in accord with all that Jehoiakim had done.

۳ 3 زیرا به‌سبب غضبی که خداوند بر اورشلیم ویهودا داشت به حدی که آنها را از نظر خودانداخت واقع شد که صدقیا بر پادشاه بابل عاصی گشت.

And so the fury of the Lord was toward Jerusalem, and toward Judah, even until he cast them away from his face. And Zedekiah drew away from the king of Babylon.

۴ 4 و واقع شد که نبوکدرصر پادشاه بابل باتمامی لشکر خود در روز دهم ماه دهم سال نهم سلطنت خویش بر اورشلیم برآمد و در مقابل آن اردو زده، سنگری گرداگردش بنا نمودند.

And it happened that, in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, he and his entire army, came against Jerusalem. And they besieged it, and they built fortifications against it, on every side.

۵ 5 وشهر تا سال یازدهم صدقیا پادشاه در محاصره بود.

And the city was besieged, until the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.

۶ 6 و در روز نهم ماه چهارم قحطی در شهرچنان سخت شد که برای اهل زمین نان نبود.

Then, in the fourth month, on the ninth of the month, a famine gripped the city. And there was no nourishment for the people of the land.

۷ 7 پس در شهر رخنه‌ای ساختند و تمام مردان جنگی درشب از راه دروازه‌ای که در میان دو حصار نزد باغ پادشاه بود فرار کردند. و کلدانیان شهر را احاطه نموده بودند. و ایشان به راه عربه رفتند.

And the city was broken, and all the men of war fled, and they departed from the city at night by way of the gate which is between the two walls, and which leads to the king’s garden, while the Chaldeans were besieging the city all around, and they went away by the road that leads to the wilderness.

۸ 8 و لشکرکلدانیان پادشاه را تعاقب نموده، در بیابان اریحا به صدقیا رسیدند و تمامی لشکرش از او پراکنده شدند.

But the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king. And they overtook Zedekiah in the desert which is near Jericho. And all of his companions fled away from him.

۹ 9 پس پادشاه را گرفته، او را نزد پادشاه بابل به ربله در زمین حمات آوردند و او بر وی فتوی داد.

And when they had captured the king, they led him away to the king of Babylon at Riblah, which is in the land of Hamath. And he spoke a judgment against him.

۱۰ 10 و پادشاه بابل پسران صدقیا را پیش رویش به قتل رسانید و جمیع سروران یهودا را نیز درربله کشت.

And the king of Babylon cut the throats of the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he also killed all the leaders of Judah at Riblah.

۱۱ 11 و چشمان صدقیا را کور کرده، او رابدو زنجیر بست. و پادشاه بابل او را به بابل برده، وی را تا روز وفاتش در زندان انداخت.

And he plucked out the eyes of Zedekiah, and he bound him with shackles, and the king of Babylon led him away to Babylon, and he placed him in the prison house, even until the day of his death.

۱۲ 12 و در روز دهم ماه پنجم از سال نوزدهم سلطنت نبوکدرصر ملک پادشاه بابل، نبوزردان رئیس جلادان که به حضور پادشاه بابل می‌ایستادبه اورشلیم آمد.

Then, in the fifth month, on the tenth of the month, which is the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, arrived. And he was standing before the king of Babylon at Jerusalem.

۱۳ 13 و خانه خداوند و خانه پادشاه را سوزانید و همه خانه های اورشلیم و هر خانه بزرگ را به آتش سوزانید.

And he set fire to the house of the Lord, and to the house of the king, and to all the houses of Jerusalem. And every great house he burned with fire.

۱۴ 14 و تمامی لشکرکلدانیان که همراه رئیس جلادان بودند تمامی حصارهای اورشلیم را بهر طرف منهدم ساختند.

And the entire army of the Chaldeans, who were with the chief of the military, destroyed the entire wall all around Jerusalem.

۱۵ 15 و نبوزردان رئیس جلادان بعضی از فقیران خلق و بقیه قوم را که در شهر باقی‌مانده بودند وخارجین را که بطرف پادشاه بابل شده بودند و بقیه جمعیت را به اسیری برد.

Then Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, took away some of the poor people, and some of the rest of the common people, who had remained in the city, and some of the fugitives, who had fled over to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.

۱۶ 16 امانبوزردان رئیس جلادان بعضی از مسکینان زمین را برای باغبانی وفلاحی واگذاشت.

Yet truly, some of the poor of the land, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, left behind as vinedressers and farmers.

۱۷ 17 و کلدانیان ستونهای برنجینی که در خانه خداوند بود و پایه‌ها ودریاچه برنجینی که در خانه خداوند بود، شکستند و تمامی برنج آنها را به بابل بردند.

The Chaldeans also broke apart the bronze pillars that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the sea of brass that was in the house of the Lord. And they took all the brass of these things to Babylon.

۱۸ 18 ودیگها و خاکندازها و گلگیرها و کاسه‌ها و قاشقهاو تمامی اسباب برنجینی را که به آنها خدمت می کردند بردند.

And they took the cooking pots, and the hooks, and the psalteries, and the bowls, and the little mortars, and all the bronze vessels that had been used in the ministry.

۱۹ 19 و رئیس جلادان پیاله‌ها ومجمرها و کاسه‌ها و دیگها و شمعدانها و قاشقهاو لگنها را یعنی طلای آنچه را که از طلا بود ونقره آنچه را که از نقره بود برد.

And the chief of the military took the water pots, and the censers, and the pitchers, and the basins, and the lampstands, and the mortars, and the little cups, whatever was gold, for the gold, and whatever was silver, for the silver,

۲۰ 20 اما دو ستون ویک دریاچه و دوازده گاو برنجینی را که زیرپایه‌ها بود و سلیمان پادشاه آنها را برای خانه خداوند ساخته بود. برنج همه این اسباب بی‌اندازه بود.

as well as the two pillars, and the one brass sea, and the twelve oxen of brass that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made in the house of the Lord. There was no weight of brass left behind out of all these vessels.

۲۱ 21 و اما ستونها، بلندی یکستون هجده ذراع و ریسمان دوازده ذراعی آنها رااحاطه داشت و حجم آن چهار انگشت بود و تهی بود.

Now concerning the pillars, one pillar was eighteen cubits high, and a cord of twelve cubits encircled it. Moreover, its thickness was four fingers, and the interior was hollow.

۲۲ 22 و تاج برنجین بر سرش و بلندی یکتاج پنج ذراع بود. و شبکه وانارها گرداگرد تاج همه ازبرنج بود. و ستون دوم مثل اینها و انارها داشت.

And heads of brass were upon both. And the height of one head was five cubits. And little nets with pomegranates were upon the heads all around, all of brass. The second pillar was similar, and the pomegranates.

۲۳ 23 و بهر طرف نود و شش انار بود. و تمام انارها به اطراف شبکه یکصد بود.

And there were ninety-six pomegranates hanging down; and there were one hundred pomegranates in all, surrounded by the little nets.

۲۴ 24 و رئیس جلادان، سرایا رئیس کهنه، و صفنیای کاهن دوم و سه مستحفظ در را گرفت.

And the chief of the military took Seraiah, the first priest, and Zephaniah, the second priest, and the three keepers of the vestibule.

۲۵ 25 و سرداری را که برمردان جنگی گماشته شده بود و هفت نفر از آنانی را که روی پادشاه را می‌دیدند و در شهر یافت شدند و کاتب سردار لشکر را که اهل ولایت راسان می‌دید و شصت نفر از اهل زمین را که درشهر یافت شدند، از شهر گرفت.

He also took from the city one eunuch who was in charge of the men of war, and seven men among those who served before the face of the king, who were found in the city, and a scribe, a leader of the military, who tested the new recruits, and sixty men from the people of the land, who were found in the midst of the city.

۲۶ 26 و نبوزردان رئیس جلادان ایشان را برداشته، نزد پادشاه بابل به ربله برد.

Then Nebuzaradan, the chief of the military, took them, and he led them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.

۲۷ 27 و پادشاه بابل ایشان را در ربله درزمین حمات زده، به قتل رسانید پس یهودا ازولایت خود به اسیری رفتند.

And the king of Babylon struck them and put them to death at Riblah, in the land of Hamath. And Judah was carried away from his land.

۲۸ 28 و این است گروهی که نبوکدرصر به اسیری برد. در سال هفتم سه هزار و بیست و سه نفر از یهود را.

This is the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty-three Jews;

۲۹ 29 و در سال هجدهم نبوکدرصر هشتصد و سی و دو نفر ازاورشلیم به اسیری برد.

in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, eight hundred thirty-two souls from Jerusalem;

۳۰ 30 و در سال بیست و سوم نبوکدرصر نبوزردان رئیس جلادان هفتصد وچهل و پنج نفر از یهودا را به اسیری برد. پس جمله کسان چهار هزار و ششصد نفربودند.

in the twenty-third year of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuzaradan, the chief of the military, carried away of the Jews seven hundred forty-five souls. Therefore, all the souls were four thousand six hundred.

۳۱ 31 و در روز بیست و پنجم ماه دوازدهم ازسال سی و هفتم اسیری یهویاقیم پادشاه یهوداواقع شد که اویل مرودک پادشاه بابل در سال اول سلطنت خود سر یهویاقیم پادشاه یهودا را اززندان برافراشت.

And it happened that, in the thirty-seventh year of the transmigration of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-fifth of the month, Evilmerodach, the king of Babylon, in the very first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, and he brought him out of the prison house.

۳۲ 32 و با او سخنان دلاویز گفت وکرسی او را بالاتر از کرسیهای سایر پادشاهانی که با او در بابل بودند گذاشت.

And he spoke with him for good, and he set his throne above the thrones of the kings who were after him in Babylon.

۳۳ 33 و لباس زندانی او راتبدیل نمود و او در تمامی روزهای عمرش همیشه نزد وی نان می‌خورد.

And he changed his prison garments, and he ate bread in his sight always, all the days of his life.

۳۴ 34 و برای معیشت او وظیفه دایمی یعنی قسمت هر روز در روزش در تمام ایام عمرش تا روز وفاتش از جانب پادشاه بابل به او داده می‌شد.

And for his meals, a continual provision was allotted to him by the king of Babylon, a measure for every single day, until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
