¹In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim was his servant three years; then he turned and rebelled against him.

¹Tamin'ny andro nanjakan'i Joiakima no niakaran'i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan'i Babylona, ary nanoa azy telo taona Joiakima, dia nivadika ka niodina taminy.

²And Jehovah sent against him the bands of the Chaldeans, and the bands of the Syrians, and the bands of the Moabites, and the bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of Jehovah, which he spoke through his servants the prophets.

²Ary Jehovah nampandeha ny miaramilan'ny Kaldeana sy ny miaramilan'ny Syriana sy ny miaramilan'i Moaba ary ny miaramilan'ny taranak'i Amona hiady aminy: dia nampandehaniny hiady amin'ny Joda ireo mba handrava azy araka ny tenin'i Jehovah, izay nampilazainy ny mpaminany mpanompony.

³Verily, at the commandment of Jehovah it came to pass against Judah, that they should be removed out of his sight, for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he had done;

³Dia araka ny tenin'i Jehovah ihany no nahatongavan'izany tamin'ny Joda, hanesorany azy tsy ho eo imasony noho ny fahotan'i Manase tahaka izay rehetra nataony

⁴and also [because of] the innocent blood that he had shed; for he had filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, and Jehovah would not pardon.

⁴sy noho ny rà marina izay nalatsany koa; fa nofenoiny rà marina Jerosalema; koa izany no tsy netezan'i Jehovah hamela ny helony.

⁵And 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?

⁵Ary ny tantaran'i Joiakima sisa mbamin'izay rehetra nataony, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin'ny bokin'ny tantaran'ny mpanjakan'ny Joda va izany?

⁶And Jehoiakim slept with his fathers, and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.

⁶Ary Joiakima lasa nodimandry any amin'ny razany, ka Joiakina zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.

⁷And the king of Egypt came not again any more out of his land, for the king of Babylon had taken all that belonged to the king of Egypt, from the torrent of Egypt to the river Euphrates.

⁷Ary ny mpanjakan'i Egypta tsy nivoaka avy tany amin'ny taniny intsony; fa lasan'ny mpanjakan'i Babylona izay rehetra an'ny mpanjakan'i Egypta hatramin'ny lohasahan-driak'i Egypta ka hatramin'ny ony Eofrata.

⁸Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Nehushta, daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.

⁸Valo ambin'ny folo taona Joiakina, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary telo volana no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Nehosta, zanakavavin'i Elnatana, avy any Jerosalema.

⁹And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that his father had done.

⁹Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason'i Jehovah izy tahaka izay rehetra nataon-drainy.

¹⁰At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up against Jerusalem, and the city was besieged.

¹⁰Tamin'izany andro izany no niakaran'ny mpanompon'i Nebokadnezara. mpanjakan'i Babylona, hamely an'i Jerosalema, ary nataony fahirano ny tanàna.

¹¹And Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came against the city, while his servants were besieging it.

¹¹Dia tonga koa Nebokadnezera, mpanjakan'i Babylona, hamely ny tanàna, raha mbola nanao fahirano azy ny mpanompony.

¹²And Jehoiachin king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon, he, and his mother, and his servants, and his princes, and his chamberlains; and the king of Babylon took him in the eighth year of his reign.

¹²Ary Joiakina, mpanjakan'ny Joda, nivoaka nankany amin'ny mpanjakan'i Babylona, dia izy sy ny reniny ary ny mpanompony sy ny mpanapaka mbamin'ny tandapany;[Heb. ionoka] ary nentin'ny mpanjakan'i Babylona izy tamin'ny taona fahavalo nanjakany.

¹³And he brought out thence all the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and the treasures of the king's house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold that Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of Jehovah, as Jehovah had said.

¹³Ary navoakan'i Nebokadnezara avy tao ny rakitra rehetra tao an-tranon'i Jehovah sy tao an-tranon'ny mpanjaka, dia nendahany ny volamena rehetra izay nataon'i Solomona, mpanjakan'ny Isiraely, tao amin'ny tempolin'i Jehovah, araka izay nolazain'i Jehovah.

¹⁴And he carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valour, ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and smiths: none remained but the poorest sort of the people of the land.

¹⁴Ary nentiny ho babo ny tao Jerosalema rehetra sy ny mpanapaka rehetra sy ny lehilahy mahery rehetra, dia olona iray alina, mbamin'ny mahay tao-zavatra rehetra sy ny mpanefy koa, ka tsy nisy sisa navelany afa-tsy izay tompon-tany faraidina.

¹⁵And he carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon, and the king's mother, and the king's wives, and his chamberlains, and the mighty of the land, he led into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon;

¹⁵Ary nitondra an'i Joiakina koa ho babo any Babylona izy; ary ny renin'ny mpanjaka sy ny vadin'ny mpanjaka sy ny tandapa sy ny lehilahy mahery amin'ny tany dia nentiny ho babo avy tany Jerosalema ho any Babylona.[Heb. ionoka]

¹⁶and all the men of valour, seven thousand, and the craftsmen and smiths a thousand, all strong men apt for war, and the king of Babylon brought them captive to Babylon.

¹⁶Ary ny lehilahy mahery rehetra, dia fito arivo, ary ny mahay tao-zavatra sy ny mpanefy arivo lahy, izay samy mahery sy mahay miady, dia nentin'ny mpanjakan'i Babylona ho babo tany Babylona avokoa.

¹⁷And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah his uncle king in his stead, and changed his name to Zedekiah.

¹⁷Ary Matania, rahalahin-drainy, no notendren'ny mpanjakan'i Babylona ho mpanjaka hisolo an'i Joiakina, ka novany hoe Zedekia no anarany.

¹⁸Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Hamutal, daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.

¹⁸[Ny nanjakan'i Zedekia, sy ny nandravana an'i Jerosalema, ary ny toetry ny olona sisa sy Joiakina] Iraika amby roa-polo taona Zedekia, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary iraika ambin'ny folo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Hamotala, zanakavavin'i Jeremia, avy any Libna.

¹⁹And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.

¹⁹Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason'i Jehovah izy, tahaka izay rehetra nataon'i Joiakima.Fa ny fahatezeran'i Jehovah no nahatongavan'izany tamin'i Jerosalema sy ny Joda ambara-pandroakany azy tsy ho eo anatrehany. Ary Zedekia niodina tamin'ny mpanjakan'i Babylona.

²⁰For, because the anger of Jehovah was against Jerusalem and against Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence, Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.

²⁰Fa ny fahatezeran'i Jehovah no nahatongavan'izany tamin'i Jerosalema sy ny Joda ambara-pandroakany azy tsy ho eo anatrehany. Ary Zedekia niodina tamin'ny mpanjakan'i Babylona.
