1ΟΝΤΟΣ εἰκοστοῦ καὶ ἑνὸς ἔτους Σεδεκίου ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτόν, καὶ ἕνδεκα ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ Ἀμειτάαλ, θυγάτηρ Ἱερεμίου, ἐκ Λοβενά.
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.

2And Zedekiah did evil in the sight of the LORD, just as Jehoiakim had done.
no verse 3 in this text
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.
4καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἔτει τῷ ἐνάτῳ τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ, ἐν μηνὶ τῷ δεκάτῳ, δεκάτῃ τοῦ μηνός, ἦλθε Ναβουχοδονόσορ βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος καὶ πᾶσα ἡ δύναμις αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ Ἱερουσαλὴμ καὶ περιεχαράκωσαν αὐτὴν καὶ περιῳκοδόμησαν αὐτὴν τετραπέδοις λίθοις κύκλῳ.
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.
5καὶ ἦλθεν ἡ πόλις εἰς συνοχὴν ἕως ἑνδεκάτου ἔτους τῷ βασιλεῖ Σεδεκίᾳ·
5And the city was kept under siege until King Zedekiah’s eleventh year.
6ἐν τῇ ἐνάτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς καὶ ἐστερεώθη ὁ λιμὸς ἐν τῇ πόλει, καὶ οὐκ ἦσαν ἄρτοι τῷ λαῷ τῆς γῆς.
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.
7καὶ διεκόπη ἡ πόλις, καὶ πάντες οἱ ἄνδρες οἱ πολεμισταὶ ἐξῆλθον νυκτὸς κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν τῆς πύλης ἀναμέσον τοῦ τείχους καὶ τοῦ προτειχίσματος, ὃ ἦν κατὰ τὸν κῆπον τοῦ βασιλέως, καὶ οἱ Χαλδαῖοι ἐπὶ τῆς πόλεως κύκλῳ. καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν ὁδὸν τὴν εἰς Ἄραβα,
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,
8καὶ κατεδίωξεν ἡ δύναμις τῶν Χαλδαίων ὀπίσω τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ κατέλαβον αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ πέραν Ἱεριχώ, καὶ πάντες οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ διεσπάρησαν ἀπ' αὐτοῦ.
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.
9καὶ συνέλαβον τὸν βασιλέα καὶ ἤγαγον αὐτὸν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα Βαβυλῶνος εἰς Δεβλαθά, καὶ ἐλάλησεν αὐτῷ μετὰ κρίσεως.
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.
10καὶ ἔσφαξε βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος τοὺς υἱοὺς Σεδεκίου κατ' ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἄρχοντας Ἰούδα ἔσφαξεν ἐν Δεβλαθά.
10There at Riblah the king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he also killed all the officials of Judah.
11καὶ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς Σεδεκίου ἐξετύφλωσε καὶ ἔδησεν αὐτὸν ἐν πέδαις, καὶ ἤγαγεν αὐτὸν βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος εἰς Βαβυλῶνα καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὸν εἰς οἰκίαν μύλωνος ἕως ἡμέρας ἧς ἀπέθανε.
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.
12καὶ ἐν μηνὶ πέμπτῳ, δεκάτῃ τοῦ μηνός, ἦλθε Ναβουζαρδὰν ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος ὁ ἑστηκὼς κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος εἰς Ἱερουσαλήμ,
12On the tenth day of the fifth month, in the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar’s reign over Babylon, Nebuzaradan captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, entered Jerusalem.
13καὶ ἐνέπρησε τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου καὶ τὸν οἶκον τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ πάσας τὰς οἰκίας τῆς πόλεως, καὶ πᾶσαν οἰκίαν μεγάλην ἐνέπρησεν ἐν πυρί.
13He burned down the house of the LORD, the royal palace, and all the houses of Jerusalem—every significant building.
14καὶ πᾶν τεῖχος Ἱερουσαλὴμ κύκλῳ καθεῖλεν ἡ δύναμις τῶν Χαλδαίων, ἡ μετὰ τοῦ ἀρχιμαγείρου.
14And the whole army of the Chaldeans under the captain of the guard broke down all the walls around Jerusalem.
no verse 15 in this text
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.
16καὶ τοὺς καταλοίπους τοῦ λαοῦ κατέλιπεν ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος εἰς ἀμπελουργοὺς καὶ εἰς γεωργούς.
16But Nebuzaradan captain of the guard left behind some of the poorest of the land to tend the vineyards and fields.
17καὶ τοὺς στύλους τοὺς χαλκοῦς τοὺς ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου καὶ τὰς βάσεις καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν τὴν χαλκῆν τὴν ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου συνέτριψαν οἱ Χαλδαῖοι καὶ ἔλαβον τὸν χαλκὸν αὐτῶν καὶ ἀπήνεγκαν εἰς Βαβυλῶνα.
17Moreover, the Chaldeans broke up the bronze pillars and stands and the bronze Sea in the house of the LORD, and they carried all the bronze to Babylon.
18καὶ τὴν στεφάνην καὶ τὰς φιάλας καὶ τὰς κρεάγρας καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη τὰ χαλκᾶ, ἐν οἷς ἐλειτούργουν ἐν αὐτοῖς,
18They also took away the pots, shovels, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, dishes, and all the articles of bronze used in the temple service.
19καὶ τὰ σαφφὼθ καὶ τὰ μασμαρὼθ καὶ τοὺς ὑποχυτῆρας καὶ τὰς λυχνίας καὶ τὰς θυΐσκας καὶ τοὺς κυάθους, ἃ ἦν χρυσᾶ χρυσᾶ καὶ ἃ ἦν ἀργυρᾶ ἀργυρᾶ, ἔλαβεν ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος.
19The captain of the guard also took away the basins, censers, sprinkling bowls, pots, lampstands, pans, and drink offering bowls—anything made of pure gold or fine silver.
20καὶ οἱ στῦλοι δύο καὶ ἡ θάλασσα μία καὶ οἱ μόσχοι δώδεκα χαλκοῖ ὑποκάτω τῆς θαλάσσης, ἃ ἐποίησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Σαλωμὼν εἰς οἶκον Κυρίου· οὐκ ἦν σταθμὸς τοῦ χαλκοῦ αὐτῶν.
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.
21καὶ οἱ στῦλοι, τριακονταπέντε πηχῶν· ὕψος τοῦ στύλου τοῦ ἑνός, καὶ σπαρτίον δώδεκα πήχεων περιεκύκλου αὐτόν, καὶ τὸ πάχος αὐτοῦ δακτύλων τεσσάρων κύκλῳ,
21Each pillar was eighteen cubits tall and twelve cubits in circumference; each was hollow, four fingers thick.
22καὶ γεῖσος ἐπ' αὐτοῖς χαλκοῦν, καὶ πέντε πήχεων τὸ μῆκος ὑπεροχὴ τοῦ γείσους τοῦ ἑνός, καὶ δίκτυον καὶ ρόαι ἐπὶ τοῦ γείσους κύκλῳ, τὰ πάντα χαλκᾶ· καὶ κατὰ ταῦτα τῷ στύλῳ τῷ δευτέρῳ, ὀκτὼ ρόαι τῷ πήχει τοῖς δώδεκα πήχεσι.
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.
23καὶ ἦσαν αἱ ρόαι ἐνενηκονταὲξ τὸ ἓν μέρος, καὶ ἦσαν αἱ πᾶσαι ρόαι ἑκατὸν ἐπὶ τοῦ δικτύου κύκλῳ.
23Each capital had ninety-six pomegranates on the sides, and a total of a hundred pomegranates were above the surrounding network.
24καὶ ἔλαβεν ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος τὸν ἱερέα τὸν πρῶτον καὶ τὸν ἱερέα τὸν δευτεροῦντα καὶ τοὺς τρεῖς τοὺς φυλάττοντας τὴν ὁδὸν
24The captain of the guard also took away Seraiah the chief priest, Zephaniah the priest of second rank, and the three doorkeepers.
25καὶ εὐνοῦχον ἕνα, ὃς ἦν ἐπιστάτης τῶν ἀνδρῶν τῶν πολεμιστῶν, καὶ ἑπτὰ ἄνδρας ὀνομαστοὺς τοὺς ἐν προσώπῳ τοῦ βασιλέως, τοὺς εὑρεθέντας ἐν τῇ πόλει, καὶ τὸν γραμματέα τῶν δυνάμεων, τὸν γραμματεύοντα τῷ λαῷ τῆς γῆς, καὶ ἑξήκοντα ἀνθρώπους ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ τῆς γῆς, τοὺς εὑρεθέντας ἐν μέσῳ τῆς πόλεως·
25Of those still in the city, he took a court official who had been appointed over the men of war, as well as seven trusted royal advisers. He also took the scribe of the captain of the army, who had enlisted the people of the land, and sixty men who were found in the city.
26καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτοὺς Ναβουζαρδὰν ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ἤγαγεν αὐτοὺς πρὸς βασιλέα Βαβυλῶνος εἰς Δεβλαθά,
26Nebuzaradan captain of the guard took them and brought them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
27καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτοὺς βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος ἐν Δεβλαθά, ἐν γῇ Αἰμάθ.
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.

31καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ τριακοστῷ καὶ ἑβδόμῳ ἔτει, ἀποικισθέντος τοῦ Ἰωακεὶμ βασιλέως Ἰούδα ἐν τῷ δωδεκάτῳ μηνί, ἐν τῇ τετράδι καὶ εἰκάδι τοῦ μηνός, ἔλαβεν Οὐλαιμαραδὰχ βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος ἐν τῷ ἐνιαυτῷ, ᾧ ἐβασίλευσε, τὴν κεφαλὴν Ἰωακεὶμ βασιλέως Ἰούδα καὶ ἐξήγαγεν αὐτὸν ἐξ οἰκίας, ἧς ἐφυλάσσετο·
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.
32καὶ ἐλάλησεν αὐτῷ χρηστὰ καὶ ἔδωκε τὸν θρόνον αὐτοῦ ἐπάνω τῶν βασιλέων τῶν μετ' αὐτοῦ ἐν Βαβυλῶνι·
32And he spoke kindly to Jehoiachin and set his throne above the thrones of the other kings who were with him in Babylon.
33καὶ ἤλλαξε τὴν στολὴν τῆς φυλακῆς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἤσθιεν ἄρτον διὰ παντὸς κατὰ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας, ἃς ἔζησε.
33So Jehoiachin changed out of his prison clothes, and he dined regularly at the king’s table for the rest of his life.
34καὶ ἡ σύνταξις αὐτῷ ἐδίδοτο διὰ παντὸς παρὰ τοῦ βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος ἐξ ἡμέρας εἰς ἡμέραν ἕως ἡμέρας, ἧς ἀπέθανεν.
34And the king of Babylon provided Jehoiachin a daily portion for the rest of his life, until the day of his death.
