¹За његовог времена дође Навуходоносор цар вавилонски; и Јоаким му би слуга три године; потом одуста и одметну се од њега.

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

²И 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.

²And the LORD sent against him bands of the Chaldees, and bands of the Syrians, and bands of the Moabites, and bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by his servants the prophets.

³По заповести Господњој зби се то Јуди да би га одбацио од себе за грехе Манасијине по свему што беше учинио;

³Surely at the commandment of the LORD came this upon Judah, to remove them out of his sight, for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did;

⁴И за крв праву коју беше пролио напунивши Јерусалим крви праве; зато Господ не хте опростити.

⁴And also for the innocent blood that he shed: for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; which the LORD would not pardon.

⁵А остала дела Јоакимова и све што је учинио, није ли записано у дневнику царева Јудиних?

⁵Now 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?

⁶И почину Јоаким код отаца својих; а на његово се место зацари Јоахин.

⁶So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.

⁷А цар мисирски не изађе више из земље своје, јер цар вавилонски узе од реке мисирске до реке Ефрата све што беше цара мисирског.

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

⁸Осамнаест година беше Јоахину кад се зацари, и царова три месеца у Јерусалиму. Матери му беше име Неуста, кћи Елнатанова, из Јерусалима.

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

⁹И он чињаше зло пред Господом сасвим како је чинио отац његов.

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

¹⁰У то време дођоше слуге Навуходоносора, цара вавилонског на Јерусалим, и град би опкољен.

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

¹¹Дође и Навуходоносор, цар вавилонски на град кад га слуге његове опколише.

¹¹And Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came against the city, and his servants did besiege it.

¹²Тада 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.

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

¹³И 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.

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

¹⁴И 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.

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

¹⁵Одведе и Јоахина у Вавилон и матер цареву и жене цареве и дворане његове, и главаре земаљске одведе у ропство из Јерусалима у Вавилон.

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

¹⁶И све јунаке на број седам хиљада, и дрводеље и коваче, хиљаду, све што беху за војску одведе цар вавилонски у Вавилон у ропство.

¹⁶And all the men of might, even seven thousand, and craftsmen and smiths a thousand, all that were strong and apt for war, even them the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon.

¹⁷И постави царем цар вавилонски на место Јоахиново Матанију, стрица његовог, и преде му име Седекија.

¹⁷And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah his father's brother king in his stead, and changed his name to Zedekiah.

¹⁸Двадесет и једна година беше Седекији кад поче царовати, и царова једанаест година у Јерусалиму. Матери му беше име Амутала, кћи Јеремијина, из Ливне.

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

¹⁹Он чињаше што је зло пред Господом сасвим како је чинио Јоаким.

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

²⁰Јер од гнева Господњег зби се то Јерусалиму и Јуди, да их одбаци од себе. А Седекија се одметну од цара вавилонског.

²⁰For through the anger of the LORD it came to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
