1Zedekiah a manghai vaengah kum kul kum khat lo ca tih Jerusalem ah kum hlai khat tah manghai van. A manu ming tah Hamutal tih, Hamutal tah Libnah lamkah Jeremiah canu ni.
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.
2Jehoiakim loh boethae cungkuem a saii bangla Zedekiah loh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a saii.
2And Zedekiah did evil in the sight of the LORD, just as Jehoiakim had done.
3Te dongah a mikhmuh lamloh amih a voeih due Jerusalem neh Judah taengah BOEIPA kah thintoek om coeng. Zedekiah loh Babylon manghai te a tloelh.
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.
4Te dongah anih a manghai te kum ko hla rha a pha tih hlasae a hnin rha vaengah tah Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar amah neh a caem boeih te Jerusalem la ha pawk. A taengah rhaeh uh tih a kaepvai ah buep a saii uh.
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.
5Manghai Zedekiah kah a kum hlai khat duela khopuei te vongup khuila pawk.
5And the city was kept under siege until King Zedekiah’s eleventh year.
6A hla li kah hlasae hnin ko dongah tah khopuei khuiah khokha tlung tih khohmuen kah pilnam ham buh om pawh.
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.
7Te dongah khopuei te a va uh tih caemtloek hlang rhoek khaw boeih yong uh. Khoyin ah tah khopuei lamloh manghai dum kaep kah vongtung laklo kah vongka longpuei longah coe uh. Tedae khopuei kaep kah Khalden taeng lamloh kolken longpuei la cet uh.
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,
8Te dongah Khalden caem loh manghai hnukah a hloem uh tih Zedekiah te Jerikho kolken ah a kae uh. Te dongah a caem khaw anih taeng lamloh boeih taekyaak uh.
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.
9Tedae manghai te a tuuk uh tih Khamath khohmuen Riblah kah Babylon manghai taengla a khuen uh tih anih sokah laitloeknah a thui pah.
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.
10Babylon manghai loh Zedekiah ca rhoek te a mikhmuh ah a ngawn pah tih Judah mangpa boeih te khaw Riblah ah a ngawn.
10There at Riblah the king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he also killed all the officials of Judah.
11Te phoeiah Zedekiah mik te a dael sak tih rhohum neh a khih. Anih te Babylon kah Babylon manghai taengla a khuen tih a dueknah khohnin duela a im kah ngoldoelhnah im ah a khueh.
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.
12Babylon manghai Nebukhanezar manghai kah a kum hlai ko kum, hla nga dongkah hlasae hnin rha dongah tah Babylon manghai mikhmuh ah aka pai imtawt boeiping Nebuzaradan te Jerusalem la ha pawk.
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.
13BOEIPA im te a hoeh tih manghai im neh Jerusalem kah im boeih, im tanglue boeih khaw hmai neh a hoeh pah.
13He burned down the house of the LORD, the royal palace, and all the houses of Jerusalem—every significant building.
14Jerusalem kaepvai kah vongtung boeih te imtawt boeiping hmuikah Khalden caem pum loh a palet uh.
14And the whole army of the Chaldeans under the captain of the guard broke down all the walls around Jerusalem.
15Te vaengah pilnam khodaeng neh khopuei ah aka sueng pilnam hlangrhuel khaw, Babylon manghai taengah cungku la aka cungku khaw, bibi thai hlangrhuel khaw imtawt boeiping khaw Nebuzaradan loh a poelyoe.
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.
16Tedae khohmuen kah khodaeng rhoek tah imtawt boeiping Nebuzaradan loh dumpho neh lotawn la a paih.
16But Nebuzaradan captain of the guard left behind some of the poorest of the land to tend the vineyards and fields.
17Khalden loh BOEIPA im kah rhohum tung neh tungkho khaw, BOEIPA im kah rhohum tuitung khaw , amih kah rhohum boeih te aphaek uh tihBabylon la a khuen.
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.
18Am neh hmaisoh khaw, paitaeh neh baelcak khaw, yakbu neh rhohum hnopai boeih, amih taengkah aka thotat rhoek te khaw a khuen uh.
18They also took away the pots, shovels, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, dishes, and all the articles of bronze used in the temple service.
19Baeldung neh baelphaih khaw, baelcak neh am khaw, hmaitung khaw, yakbu neh tuisi-am khaw, sui dongkah sui khaw, ngun khuika ngun te khaw imtawt boeiping loh a khuen.
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.
20Tung panit tui-im pakhat hmuikah tungkho, rhohum vaito hlai nit khaw a khuen. Te te manghai Solomon loh BOEIPA im ham a saii tih te rhohum hnopai boeih kah a khiing te sava pawh.
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.
21Tung a sang mah tung pakhat dongah a sang dong hlai rhet om coeng tih rhuihet neh dong hlai nit la a som coeng. A thah kutdawn pali thah tih khui.
21Each pillar was eighteen cubits tall and twelve cubits in circumference; each was hollow, four fingers thick.
22A sokah tungthi khaw rhohum tih tungthi pakhat kah a sang te dong nga om. Tungthi sokah sahamlong neh tale khaw a kaepvai khaw rhohum boeih ni. A pabae tung khaw te phek la tale neh om.
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.
23Te dongah tale thaih te sawmko phoeiah parhuk om tih a kaepvai kah Sahamlong dongah khaw a pum la tale thaih yakhat om.
23Each capital had ninety-six pomegranates on the sides, and a total of a hundred pomegranates were above the surrounding network.
24Imtawt boeiping loh khosoih boeilu Seraiah khaw, a hnukthoi khosoih Zephaniah neh cingkhaa aka tawt pathum te khaw a khuen.
24The captain of the guard also took away Seraiah the chief priest, Zephaniah the priest of second rank, and the three doorkeepers.
25Caemtloek hlang soah hlangtawt la aka om imkhoem pakhat neh manghai maelhmai aka so hlang parhih a khuen. Te te khopuei khuiah a hmuh uh tih khohmuen pilnam aka hueh caempuei mangpa kah cadaek neh khopuei khui kah a hmuh khohmuen pilnam hlang sawmrhuk te khopuei lamloh a khuen.
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.
26Amih te imtawt boeiping Nebuzaradan loh a khuen tih Riblah kah Babylon manghai taengla a thak.
26Nebuzaradan captain of the guard took them and brought them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
27Amih te Babylon manghai loh a ngawn tih Khamath khohmuen kah Riblah ah amih te a duek sak. Judah tah amah khohmuen dong lamloh a poelyoe tangloeng.
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.
28A kum rhih dongah tah Nebukhanezar loh pilnam he Judah hlang thawng thum phoeiah pakul pathum a poelyoe coeng.
28These are the people Nebuchadnezzar carried away: in the seventh year, 3,023 Jews;
29Nebukhanezar kah a kum hlai rhet dongah Jerusalem lamkah hinglu ya rhet sawmthum patnit a khuen.
29in Nebuchadnezzar’s eighteenth year, 832 people from Jerusalem;
30Nebukhanezar kah kum kul kum thum dongah imtawt boeiping Nebuzaradan loh Judah hinglu ya rhih sawmli panga neh hinglu boeih thawng li ya rhuk te a poelyoe.
30in Nebuchadnezzar’s twenty-third year, Nebuzaradan captain of the guard carried away 745 Jews. So in all, 4,600 people were taken away.
31Judah manghai Jehoiakhin hlangsol kah kum sawmthum kum rhih hla hlai nit hlasae hnin kul hnin nga lo coeng. Babylon manghai Evilmerodakh kah a ram a pai kum ah tah Judah manghai Jehoiakhin lu te thongim kah im lamloh a hlah.
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.
32A taengah a then a thui pah tih manghai rhoek kah ngolkhoel soah khaw, Babylon ah amah taengkah manghai rhoek taengah khaw Jehoiakhin ham ngolkhoel a khueh pah.
32And he spoke kindly to Jehoiachin and set his throne above the thrones of the other kings who were with him in Babylon.
33Te dongah a thongim himbai te a thovael tih manghai hmai kah buh te a hing tue khuiah phat a caak.
33So Jehoiachin changed out of his prison clothes, and he dined regularly at the king’s table for the rest of his life.
34A buhkak tah buhkak mai akhaw anih te rhawp a paek. A hing tue khui neh a dueknah khohnin duela a hnin, hnin ah Babylon manghai taeng lamkah olka te khaw a yaak.
34And the king of Babylon provided Jehoiachin a daily portion for the rest of his life, until the day of his death.
