1ゼデキヤは二十一歳で王となり、エルサレムで十一年間治めた。彼の母の名はハムタルといい、リブナ出身のエレミヤの娘であった。
1Zedekiah was one and twenty 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.
2彼はエホヤキムが行ったすべてのことに倣い、主の目に悪いことを行った。
2And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
3エルサレムとユダにこのことが起こったのは主の怒りによるもので、ついに主は彼らを御前から投げ捨てられた。 ゼデキヤはバビロンの王に反逆した。
3For through the anger of the LORD did it come to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, until He had cast them out from His presence. And Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
4ゼデキヤの治世第九年、第十の月の十日に、バビロンの王ネブカドネザルは全軍を率いてエルサレムに攻めて来た。彼らはその周囲に陣を張り、四方に包囲の塁を築いた。
4And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it; and they built forts against it round about.
5こうして町は、ゼデキヤ王の治世第十一年まで包囲された。
5So the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
6第四の月の九日、町の飢饉は激しくなり、この地の民には食べ物がなくなった。
6In the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was sore in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
7その時、町の城壁が破られ、兵士たちは皆、夜のうちに逃げ出した。彼らは王の庭のそばにある二重の城壁の間の門を通って、町を出た。カルデア人は町を四方から取り囲んでいた。兵士たちはアラバの方へ向かった。
7Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled, and went forth out of the city 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 round about — and they went by the way of the Arabah.
8しかし、カルデア人の軍隊は王を追い、エリコの平地でゼデキヤに追いついた。その全軍は彼のもとから散らされた。
8But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
9彼らは王を捕らえ、ハマテの地リブラにいるバビロンの王のもとへ連れて行った。王はゼデキヤに判決を下した。
9Then they took the king, and carried him up unto the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he gave judgment upon him.
10バビロンの王はゼデキヤの息子たちを彼の目の前で殺した。また、リブラでユダのすべての高官たちを殺した。
10And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes; he slew also all the princes of Judah in Riblah.
11さらにゼデキヤの両目をえぐった。バビロンの王は彼を足かせにつなぎ、バビロンへ連れて行き、死ぬ日まで牢獄に入れておいた。
11And he put out the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon bound him in fetters, and carried him to Babylon, and put him in prison till the day of his death.
12第五の月の十日、すなわちバビロンの王ネブカドネザルの治世第十九年に、バビロンの王に仕える親衛隊長ネブザラダンがエルサレムに来た。
12Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, who stood before the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem;
13彼は主の家、王宮、エルサレムのすべての家々を火で焼いた。大きな家はすべて火で焼いた。
13and he burned the house of the LORD, and the king's house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great man's house, burned he with fire.
14親衛隊長とともにいたカルデア人の全軍は、エルサレムを囲むすべての城壁を打ち壊した。
14And all the army of the Chaldeans, that were with the captain of the guard, broke down all the walls of Jerusalem round about.
15親衛隊長ネブザラダンは、民の中の貧しい者の一部、町に残っていた民、バビロンの王に投降した者たち、残っていた群衆を捕囚として連れ去った。
15Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the poorest sort of the people, and the residue of the people that remained in the city, and those that fell away, that fell to the king of Babylon, and the residue of the multitude.
16しかし、親衛隊長ネブザラダンは、この地の最も貧しい者の一部を、ぶどう畑を手入れする者と農夫として残した。
16But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poorest of the land to be vinedressers and husbandmen.
17カルデア人は主の家にあった青銅の柱、台、青銅の海を砕き、その青銅をすべてバビロンへ運んだ。
17And the pillars of brass that were in the house of the LORD, and the bases and the brazen sea that were in the house of the LORD, did the Chaldeans break in pieces, and carried all the brass of them to Babylon.
18また、鍋、灰取り、芯切りばさみ、鉢、さじ、礼拝に用いるすべての青銅の器を持ち去った。
18The pots also, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the basins, and the pans, and all the vessels of brass wherewith they ministered, took they away.
19親衛隊長は、杯、火皿、鉢、鍋、燭台、さじ、注ぎの器を持ち去った。金でできたものは金として、銀でできたものは銀として持ち去った。
19And the cups, and the fire-pans, and the basins, and the pots, and the candlesticks, and the pans, and the bowls — that which was of gold, in gold, and that which was of silver, in silver — the captain of the guard took away.
20ソロモン王が主の家のために造った二本の柱、一つの海、台の下にあった十二頭の青銅の雄牛も持ち去った。これらすべての器の青銅は、量ることができないほどであった。
20The two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve brazen bulls that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made for the house of the LORD — the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
21一本の柱の高さは十八キュビトで、周囲の長さは十二キュビトであった。 その厚さは指四本分で、中は空洞であった。
21And as for the pillars, the height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits; and a line of twelve cubits did compass it; and the thickness thereof was four fingers; it was hollow.
22その上には青銅の柱頭があり、一つの柱頭の高さは五キュビトであった。 柱頭の周囲には、すべて青銅でできた網細工とざくろがあった。もう一方の柱も同じで、ざくろがついていた。
22And a capital of brass was upon it; and the height of the one capital was five cubits, with network and pomegranates upon the capital round about, all of brass; and the second pillar also had like unto these, and pomegranates.
23外側には九十六個のざくろがあり、網細工の周囲全体では百個のざくろがあった。
23And there were ninety and six pomegranates on the outside; all the pomegranates were a hundred upon the network round about.
24親衛隊長は祭司長セラヤ、第二の祭司ゼパニヤ、三人の門衛を捕らえた。
24And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the door;
25また、町から、兵士たちを指揮していた一人の高官、町にいた王に謁見する七人の者、民を召集していた軍の長の書記、この地の民のうち町の中にいた六十人を捕らえた。
25and out of the city he took an officer that was set over the men of war; and seven men of them that saw the king's face, who were found in the city; and the scribe of the captain of the host, who mustered the people of the land; and threescore men of the people of the land, that were found in the midst of the city.
26親衛隊長ネブザラダンは彼らを捕らえ、リブラにいるバビロンの王のもとへ連れて行った。
26And Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
27バビロンの王はハマテの地リブラで彼らを打ち殺した。 こうしてユダは自分の地から捕囚として連れ去られた。
27And the king of Babylon smote them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his land.
28ネブカドネザルが捕囚として連れ去った民の数は、次のとおりである。 第七年に、ユダヤ人三千二十三人。
28This is the people whom Nebuchadrezzar carried away captive: in the seventh year three thousand Jews and three and twenty;
29ネブカドネザルの治世第十八年に、エルサレムから八百三十二人を捕囚として連れ去った。
29in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar, from Jerusalem, eight hundred thirty and two persons;

31ユダの王エホヤキンが捕囚となってから第三十七年、第十二の月の二十五日に、バビロンの王エビル・メロダクは、その治世第一年に、ユダの王エホヤキンに恩赦を与え、牢獄から出した。
31And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the five and twentieth day of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon, in the first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought him forth out of prison.
32彼に親切に語り、バビロンで彼とともにいた王たちの王座よりも高い王座を与えた。
32And he spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon.
33エホヤキンは囚人の服を着替え、生涯いつも王の前で食事をした。
33And he changed his prison garments, and did eat bread before him continually all the days of his life.
