Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant for three years. Then he turned and rebelled against him.
1ΕΝ ταῖς ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ ἀνέβη Ναβουχοδονόσορ βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος καὶ ἐγενήθη αὐτῷ Ἰωακὶμ δοῦλος τρία ἔτη, καὶ ἐπέστρεψε καὶ ἠθέτησεν ἐν αὐτῷ.
2The LORD sent against him bands of the Chaldeans, bands of the Syrians, bands of the Moabites, and bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the LORD’s word which he spoke by his servants the prophets.
2καὶ ἀπέστειλε Κύριος αὐτῷ τοὺς μονοζώνους τῶν Χαλδαίων καὶ τοὺς μονοζώνους Συρίας καὶ τοὺς μονοζώνους Μωὰβ καὶ τοὺς μονοζώνους υἱῶν Ἀμὼν καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ γῇ Ἰούδα τοῦ κατισχῦσαι κατὰ τὸν λόγον Κυρίου, ὃν ἐλάλησεν ἐν χειρὶ τῶν δούλων αὐτοῦ τῶν προφητῶν.
3Surely at the commandment of the LORD this came on Judah, to remove them out of his sight for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did,
3πλὴν ἐπὶ τὸν θυμὸν Κυρίου ἦν ἐν τῷ Ἰούδᾳ ἀποστῆσαι αὐτὸν ἀπὸ τοῦ προσώπου αὐτοῦ ἐν ἁμαρτίαις Μανασσῆ κατὰ πάντα, ὅσα ἐποίησε.
4and also for the innocent blood that he shed; for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, and the LORD would not pardon.
4καί γε τὸ αἷμα ἀθῷον ἐξέχεε καὶ ἔπλησε τὴν Ἱερουσαλὴμ αἵματος ἀθῴου· καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησε Κύριος ἱλασθῆναι.
5Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
5καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ τῶν λόγων Ἰωακὶμ καὶ πάντα, ὅσα ἐποίησεν, οὐκ ἰδοὺ ταῦτα γεγραμμένα ἐπὶ βιβλίῳ λόγων τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν Ἰούδα;
6So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers, and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his place.
6καὶ ἐκοιμήθη Ἰωακὶμ μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐβασίλευσεν Ἰωαχὶμ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
7The king of Egypt didn’t come out of his land any more; for the king of Babylon had taken, from the brook of Egypt to the river Euphrates, all that belonged to the king of Egypt.
7καὶ οὐ προσέθετο ἔτι βασιλεὺς Αἰγύπτου ἐξελθεῖν ἐκ τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἔλαβε βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος ἀπὸ τοῦ χειμάρρου Αἰγύπτου ἕως τοῦ ποταμοῦ Εὐφράτου πάντα, ὅσα ἦν τοῦ βασιλέως Αἰγύπτου.
8Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. His mother’s name was Nehushta the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
8Υἱὸς ὀκτωκαίδεκα ἐτῶν Ἰωαχὶμ ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτὸν καὶ τρίμηνον ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ Νέσθα, θυγάτηρ Ἐλλαναθὰν ἐξ Ἱερουσαλήμ.
9He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, according to all that his father had done.
9καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ πονηρὸν ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς Κυρίου κατὰ πάντα, ὅσα ἐποίησεν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ.
10At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up to Jerusalem, and the city was besieged.
10ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ἀνέβη Ναβουχοδονόσορ βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ καὶ ἦλθεν ἡ πόλις ἐν περιοχῇ.
11Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to the city while his servants were besieging it,
11καὶ εἰσῆλθε Ναβουχοδονόσορ βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος εἰς πόλιν, καὶ οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ ἐπολιόρκουν ἐπ᾿ αὐτήν.
12and Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon—he, his mother, his servants, his princes, and his officers; and the king of Babylon captured him in the eighth year of his reign.
12καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Ἰωαχὶμ βασιλεὺς Ἰούδα ἐπὶ βασιλέα Βαβυλῶνος, αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ καὶ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες αὐτοῦ καὶ οἱ εὐνοῦχοι αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτὸν βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος ἐν τῷ ὀγδόῳ ἔτει τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ.
13He carried out from there all the treasures of the LORD’s house and the treasures of the king’s house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel had made in the LORD’s temple, as the LORD had said.
13καὶ ἐξήνεγκεν ἐκεῖθεν πάντας τοὺς θησαυροὺς οἴκου Κυρίου καὶ τοὺς θησαυροὺς οἴκου τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ συνέκοψε πάντα τὰ σκεύη τὰ χρυσᾶ, ἃ ἐποίησε Σαλωμὼν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἰσραὴλ ἐν τῷ ναῷ Κυρίου κατὰ τὸ ρῆμα Κυρίου.
14He carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valor, even ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and the smiths. No one remained except the poorest people of the land.
14καὶ ἀπῴκισε τὴν Ἱερουσαλὴμ καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἄρχοντας καὶ τοὺς δυνατοὺς ἰσχύϊ αἰχμαλωσίας δέκα χιλιάδας αἰχμαλωτίσας καὶ πᾶν τέκτονα καὶ τὸν συγκλείοντα, καὶ οὐχ ὑπελείφθη πλὴν οἱ πτωχοὶ τῆς γῆς.
15He carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon, with the king’s mother, the king’s wives, his officers, and the chief men of the land. He carried them into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon.
15καὶ ἀπῴκισε τὸν Ἰωαχὶμ εἰς Βαβυλῶνα καὶ τὴν μητέρα τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ τοὺς εὐνούχους αὐτοῦ· καὶ τοὺς ἰσχυροὺς τῆς γῆς ἀπήγαγεν εἰς ἀποικεσίαν ἐξ Ἱερουσαλὴμ εἰς Βαβυλῶνα
16All the men of might, even seven thousand, and the craftsmen and the smiths one thousand, all of them strong and fit for war, even them the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon.
16καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἄνδρας τῆς δυνάμεως ἑπτακισχιλίους καὶ τὸν τέκτονα καὶ τὸν συγκλείοντα χιλίους, πάντες δυνατοὶ ποιοῦντες πόλεμον, καὶ ἤγαγεν αὐτοὺς βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος μετοικεσίαν εἰς Βαβυλῶνα.
17The king of Babylon made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin’s father’s brother, king in his place, and changed his name to Zedekiah.
17καὶ ἐβασίλευσε βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος τὸν Ματθανίαν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ ἀντ᾿ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπέθηκε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Σεδεκία.
18Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
18Υἱὸς εἴκοσι καὶ ἑνὸς ἐνιαυτῶν Σεδεκίας ἐν τῷ βασιλεύειν αὐτὸν καὶ ἕνδεκα ἔτη ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ, καὶ ὄνομα τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ Ἀμιτὰλ θυγάτηρ Ἱερεμίου.
19He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
19καὶ ἐποίησε τὸ πονηρὸν ἐνώπιον Κυρίου κατὰ πάντα, ὅσα ἐποίησεν Ἰωακίμ·
20For through the anger of the LORD, this happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence. Then Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
20ὅτι ἐπὶ τὸν θυμὸν Κυρίου ἦν ἐπὶ Ἱερουσαλὴμ καὶ ἐν τῷ Ἰούδᾳ, ἕως ἀπέρριψεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ. καὶ ἠθέτησε Σεδεκίας ἐν τῷ βασιλεῖ Βαβυλῶνος.
