Berean Standard Bible
1西底家 登基的時候年二十一歲,在 耶路撒冷 作王十一年。他母親名叫 哈慕她 ,是 立拿 人 耶利米 的女兒。
1Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem eleven years. His mother’s name was Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah; she was from Libnah.
2西底家 行耶和華眼中看為惡的事,是照 約雅敬 一切所行的。
2And Zedekiah did evil in the sight of the LORD, just as Jehoiakim had done.
3因此耶和華的怒氣在 耶路撒冷 和 猶大 發作,以致將人民從自己的面前趕出。
3For because of the anger of the LORD, all this happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until He finally banished them from His presence. And Zedekiah also rebelled against the king of Babylon.
4西底家 背叛 巴比倫 王。他作王第九年十月初十日, 巴比倫 王 尼布甲尼撒 率領全軍來攻擊 耶路撒冷 ,對城安營,四圍築壘攻城。
4So in the ninth year of Zedekiah’s reign, on the tenth day of the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon marched against Jerusalem with his entire army. They encamped outside the city and built a siege wall all around it.
5於是城被圍困直到 西底家 王十一年。
5And the city was kept under siege until King Zedekiah’s eleventh year.
6四月初九日,城裏有大饑荒,甚至百姓都沒有糧食。
6By the ninth day of the fourth month, the famine in the city was so severe that the people of the land had no food.
7城被攻破,一切兵丁就在夜間從靠近王園兩城中間的門,出城逃跑; 迦勒底 人正在四圍攻城。他們就往 亞拉巴 逃去。
7Then the city was breached; and though the Chaldeans had surrounded the city, all the men of war fled the city by night by way of the gate between the two walls near the king’s garden. They headed toward the Arabah,
8迦勒底 的軍隊追趕 西底家 王,在 耶利哥 的平原追上他。他的全軍都離開他四散了。
8but the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho, and all his army was separated from him.
9迦勒底 人就拿住王,帶他到在 哈馬 地 利比拉 的 巴比倫 王那裏; 巴比倫 王便審判他。
9The Chaldeans seized the king and brought him up to the king of Babylon at Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he pronounced judgment on Zedekiah.
10巴比倫 王在 西底家 眼前殺了他的眾子,又在 利比拉 殺了 猶大 的一切首領,
10There at Riblah the king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he also killed all the officials of Judah.
11並且剜了 西底家 的眼睛,用銅鍊鎖着他,帶到 巴比倫 去,將他囚在監裏,直到他死的日子。
11Then he put out Zedekiah’s eyes, bound him with bronze shackles, and took him to Babylon, where he kept him in custody until his dying day.

13He burned down the house of the LORD, the royal palace, and all the houses of Jerusalem—every significant building.
14跟從護衛長 迦勒底 的全軍就拆毀 耶路撒冷 四圍的城牆。
14And the whole army of the Chaldeans under the captain of the guard broke down all the walls around Jerusalem.
15那時護衛長 尼布撒拉旦 將民中最窮的和城裏所剩下的百姓,並已經投降 巴比倫 王的人,以及大眾所剩下的人,都擄去了。
15Then Nebuzaradan captain of the guard carried into exile some of the poorest people and those who remained in the city, along with the deserters who had defected to the king of Babylon and the rest of the craftsmen.
16但護衛長 尼布撒拉旦 留下些民中最窮的,使他們修理葡萄園,耕種田地。
16But Nebuzaradan captain of the guard left behind some of the poorest of the land to tend the vineyards and fields.
17耶和華殿的銅柱並殿內的 盆 座和銅海, 迦勒底 人都打碎了,將那銅運到 巴比倫 去了,

20所羅門 為耶和華殿所造的兩根 銅 柱、一個 銅 海,並座下的十二隻銅牛,這一切的銅多得無法可稱。
20As for the two pillars, the Sea, the twelve bronze bulls under it, and the movable stands that King Solomon had made for the house of the LORD, the weight of the bronze from all these articles was beyond measure.
21這一根柱子高十八肘,厚四指,是空的,圍十二肘。
21Each pillar was eighteen cubits tall and twelve cubits in circumference; each was hollow, four fingers thick.
22柱上有銅頂,高五肘;銅頂的周圍有網子和石榴,都是銅的。那一根柱子照此一樣,也有石榴。
22The bronze capital atop one pillar was five cubits high, with a network of bronze pomegranates all around. The second pillar, with its pomegranates, was similar.

26護衛長 尼布撒拉旦 將這些人帶到 利比拉 的 巴比倫 王那裏。
26Nebuzaradan captain of the guard took them and brought them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
27巴比倫 王就把他們擊殺在 哈馬 地的 利比拉 。這樣, 猶大 人被擄去離開本地。
27There at Riblah in the land of Hamath, the king of Babylon struck them down and put them to death. So Judah was taken into exile, away from its own land.

31On the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth month of the thirty-seventh year of the exile of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the first year of the reign of Evil-merodach king of Babylon, he pardoned Jehoiachin king of Judah and released him from prison.
32又對他說恩言,使他的位高過與他一同在 巴比倫 眾王的位,
32And he spoke kindly to Jehoiachin and set his throne above the thrones of the other kings who were with him in Babylon.
33給他脫了囚服。他終身在 巴比倫 王面前吃飯。
33So Jehoiachin changed out of his prison clothes, and he dined regularly at the king’s table for the rest of his life.
34巴比倫 王賜他所需用的食物,日日賜他一分,終身是這樣,直到他死的日子。
