1It happened in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it; and they built forts against it around it.
1Yô chic belêb chihab roquic chokß xreyeb laj Judá laj Sedequías. Saß li lajêb xbe li xlaje li po re li chihab aßan nak cô laj Nabucodonosor lix reyeb laj Babilonia rochbeneb chixjunileb lix soldados chi pletic riqßuin li tenamit Jerusalén. Queßxyîb lix muhebâleb chire li tenamit ut queßxyîb lix taklebâl chi xjun sutam.
2So the city was besieged to the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
2Li tenamit sutsu xbaneb toj saß li junlaju chihab roquic chokß rey laj Sedequías.
3On the ninth day of the fourth month the famine was severe in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
3Saß li belêb xbe li xcâ po re li chihab quinumta li cueßej saß xbêneb li cuanqueb Jerusalén. Ut mâcßaß chic xtzacaêmkeb.
4Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king’s garden (now the Chaldeans were against the city around it); and the king went by the way of the Arabah.
4Eb laj Jerusalén queßxhop li tzßac li sutsu cuiß li tenamit ut queßêlelic chi kßek chixjunileb li cuînk li cauheb rib chi pletic rochben li rey. Queßel saß li oquebâl li cuan saß xyi li cuib chi tzßac chixcßatk lix naßaj li rutzßußuj li rey, usta cuanqueb lix soldado laj Babilonia chi xjun sutam li tenamit. Queßcôeb saß li be li naxic Arabá.
5But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
5Abanan eb li soldado aj Babilonia queßxtâke li rey Sedequías ut coxeßxchap saß li ru takßa re Jericó. Ut chixjunileb lix soldado laj Sedequías queßêlelic yalak bar.
6Then they took the king, and carried him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah; and they gave judgment on him.
6Nak ac xeßxchap li rey Sedequías queßxcßam aran Ribla riqßuin lix reyeb laj Babilonia. Ut aran quirakeß âtin saß xbên.
7They killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him in fetters, and carried him to Babylon.
7Ut chiru laj Sedequías queßxchßic chi chßîchß saß cuxeb li ralal. Chirix aßan queßrisi lix nakß ru xcaßbichal laj Sedequías, queßxbacß riqßuin cadena ut queßxcßam toj Babilonia.
8Now in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, to Jerusalem.
8Yô chic belêlaju chihab roquic laj Nabucodonosor chokß xreyeb laj Babilonia. Cuukub cutan chic xticlajic li roß po re li chihab aßan nak laj Nabuzaradán quicuulac Jerusalén. Aßan li nataklan saß xbêneb li soldado li nequeßcßacßalen re li rey aran Babilonia.
9He burnt the house of Yahweh, and the king’s house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house, burnt he with fire.
9Nak quicuulac laj Nabuzaradán Jerusalén quixcßat lix templo li Kâcuaß ut quixcßat ajcuiß li rochoch li rey. Ut quixcßat ajcuiß li rochocheb chixjunileb li cuanqueb xcuanquil. Chixjunileb li cab li cuanqueb Jerusalén quilajxcßat.
10All the army of the Chaldeans, who were with the captain of the guard, broke down the walls around Jerusalem.
10Eb li soldado aj Babilonia li queßcôeb chirix laj Nabuzaradán queßxjuqßui chixjunil li tzßac li sutsu cuiß li tenamit Jerusalén.
11Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive the residue of the people who were left in the city, and those who fell away, who fell to the king of Babylon, and the residue of the multitude.
11Ut laj Nabuzaradán quixchapeb li joß qßuialeb chic li tenamit li queßcana ut quixcßameb Babilonia joßqueb ajcuiß li nequeßcßanjelac saß li tenamit. Ut quixcßameb ajcuiß li queßoquen chirix lix reyeb laj Babilonia.
12But the captain of the guard left some of the poorest of the land to work the vineyards and fields.
12Caßaj cuiß li nebaßeb quixcanabeb re nak teßxcßanjela li chßochß ut teßxrakßi li uvas.
13The Chaldeans broke up the pillars of brass that were in the house of Yahweh and the bases and the bronze sea that were in the house of Yahweh, and carried the brass pieces to Babylon.
13Eb laj Babilonia queßxjori li okech yîbanbil riqßuin bronce ut lix naßaj li haß rochbeneb lix cßojlebâl. Ut queßxcßam Babilonia chixjunil li bronce.
14They took away the pots, the shovels, the snuffers, the spoons, and all the vessels of brass with which they ministered.
14Queßxcßam ajcuiß li nînki ucßal. Ut queßxcßam ajcuiß li pala li queßcßanjelac saß li artal joßqueb ajcuiß lix naßajeb li cha ut li chßîchß li quicßanjelac re xyîbanquil li lámpara, joß ajcuiß li quicßateß cuiß li incienso. Chixjunil li cßaßak re ru yîbanbil riqßuin bronce li quicßanjelac saß li templo, quilajeßxcßam Babilonia.
15The captain of the guard took away the fire pans, the basins, that which was of gold, in gold, and that which was of silver, in silver.
15Laj Nabuzaradán, li nataklan saß xbêneb li soldados li nequeßcßacßalen re li rey, quixcßam chixjunil li cßaßak re ru yîbanbil riqßuin oro ut plata joß li secß ut li ucßal li quicßanjelac re li ru xam.
16The two pillars, the one sea, and the bases, which Solomon had made for the house of Yahweh, the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
16Li cßaßak re ru yîbanbil riqßuin bronce xban li rey Salomón kßaxal nabal. Li cuib chi nînki okech, li pila joß eb ajcuiß li cablaju chi cuacax bronce li queßhilan cuiß li pila, mâ ani nanaßoc re joß qßuial tzßakal li râlal xban nak incßaß quiru xbisbal.
17The height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits, and a capital of brass was on it; and the height of the capital was three cubits, with network and pomegranates on the capital around it, all of brass: and like to these had the second pillar with network.
17Cuakxakib metro xnînkal rok li nînki okech bronce. Ut numenak cuib metro xteram li cuan saß xbên li okech. Ut lix sahob ru li cuan saß xbên yîbanbil ajcuiß riqßuin bronce chanchan ru li cheß granada. Juntakßêteb li cuib chi okech.
18The captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold:
18Ut laj Seraías li xbênil aj tij quichapeß ut quicßameß xbaneb lix soldado laj Nabuzaradán. Ut quicßameß ajcuiß laj Sofonías li xcab aj tij. Ut queßcßameß li oxib chi cuînk li queßcßacßalen re li oquebâl re li templo.
19and out of the city he took an officer who was set over the men of war; and five men of those who saw the king’s face, who were found in the city; and the scribe, the captain of the army, who mustered the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land, who were found in the city.
19Ut queßcßameß ôb li nequeßqßuehoc xnaßleb li rey li toj cuanqueb saß li tenamit. Ut quicßameß li cuînk li nataklan saß xbêneb li soldado aj Israel rochben li cuînk li natzßîban re lix cßabaßeb li tenamit. Ut queßcßameß oxcßâl li cuînk li toj cuanqueb saß li tenamit.
20Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
20Chixjunileb queßcßameß saß li tenamit Ribla li cuan saß li naßajej Hamat. Aran queßcßameß riqßuin li rey Nabucodonosor.
21The king of Babylon struck them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his land.
21Aran saß li tenamit Ribla li rey quixtakla xcamsinquileb. Joßcaßin nak queßchapeß ut queßisîc laj Judá saß lix tenamiteb.
22As for the people who were left in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had left, even over them he made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, governor.
22Laj Nabucodonosor quixxakab chokß gobernador aran Judá laj Gedalías li ralal laj Ahicam. Lix yucuaß laj Ahicam, aßan laj Safán. Ut laj Gedalías, aßan chic li quicuan xcuanquil saß xbêneb li queßcana Judá.
23Now when all the captains of the forces, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah governor, they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of the Maacathite, they and their men.
23Eb li cuanqueb xcuanquil saß xbêneb li soldado aj Israel queßrabi resil nak laj Gedalías, aßan chic li gobernador ut côeb Mizpa chi âtinac riqßuin. Aßaneb laj Ismael li ralal laj Netanías; laj Johanán li ralal laj Carea; laj Seraías li ralal laj Tanhumet, Netofa xtenamit; ut laj Jaazanías li ralal jun li cuînk Maaca xtenamit. Ut côeb ajcuiß li cuînk li cuanqueb rochbeneb.
24Gedaliah swore to them and to their men, and said to them, “Don’t be afraid because of the servants of the Chaldeans. Dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.”
24Ut laj Gedalías quixbânu jun li juramento riqßuineb ut quixye reheb: —Mexxucuac chi canâc joß aj cßanjel chiruheb laj Babilonia. Texcanâk saß li naßajej aßin ut cßanjelankex chiru li rey Nabucodonosor ut aßan tixbânu usilal êre, chan laj Gedalías reheb.
25But it happened in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the royal seed came, and ten men with him, and struck Gedaliah, so that he died, and the Jews and the Chaldeans that were with him at Mizpah.
25Laj Ismael aßan li ralal laj Netanías li ralal laj Elisama xcomoneb lix reyeb laj Judá. Saß li xcuuk li po, laj Ismael rochben lajêb chi cuînk queßcuulac ut queßxcamsi laj Gedalías. Ut queßxcamsiheb ajcuiß laj Judá ut eb laj Babilonia li cuanqueb rochben aran Mizpa.
26All the people, both small and great, and the captains of the forces, arose, and came to Egypt; for they were afraid of the Chaldeans.
26Chirix chic aßan, chixjunileb laj Judá, joß nînk joß cocß, rochbeneb li nequeßtaklan saß xbêneb li soldado aj Israel queßêlelic ut queßcôeb Egipto xban nak queßxucuac chiruheb laj Babilonia.
27It happened in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, that Evilmerodach king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;
27Nak yô cuuklaju xcaßcßâl chihab roquic chi prêxil aran Babilonia laj Joaquín lix reyeb laj Judá, laj Evil-merodac qui-oc chokß xreyeb laj Babilonia. Saß li cuukub xcaßcßâl xbe li cablaju po re li chihab aßan laj Evil-merodac quirisi laj Joaquín saß tzßalam.
28and he spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon,
28Quixqßue xcuanquil ut kßaxal quixbânu usilal re chiruheb li jun chßol chic li rey li queßcuan aran Babilonia.
29and changed his prison garments. Jehoiachin ate bread before him continually all the days of his life:
29Laj Joaquín quirisi li rakß li prêx chirix. Ut quicuaßac saß lix mêx li rey joß najtil chic quicuan chi yoßyo.Rajlal quiqßueheß cßaßru re laj Joaquín xban li rey. Quichßolanîc toj chalen nak quicam.
30and for his allowance, there was a continual allowance given him of the king, every day a portion, all the days of his life.
30Rajlal quiqßueheß cßaßru re laj Joaquín xban li rey. Quichßolanîc toj chalen nak quicam.
