Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign. He reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
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.
2He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.

3For through the LORD’s anger this happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence. Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
no verse 3 in this text
4In the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and encamped against it; and they built forts against it round about.
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.
5So the city was besieged to the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
5καὶ ἦλθεν ἡ πόλις εἰς συνοχὴν ἕως ἑνδεκάτου ἔτους τῷ βασιλεῖ Σεδεκίᾳ·
6In the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was severe in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
6ἐν τῇ ἐνάτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς καὶ ἐστερεώθη ὁ λιμὸς ἐν τῇ πόλει, καὶ οὐκ ἦσαν ἄρτοι τῷ λαῷ τῆς γῆς.
7Then a breach was made in the city, and all the men of war fled, and went 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 all around. The men of war went toward the Arabah,
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,
8but the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
8καὶ κατεδίωξεν ἡ δύναμις τῶν Χαλδαίων ὀπίσω τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ κατέλαβον αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ πέραν Ἱεριχώ, καὶ πάντες οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ διεσπάρησαν ἀπ' αὐτοῦ.
9Then they took the king, and carried him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he pronounced judgment on him.
9καὶ συνέλαβον τὸν βασιλέα καὶ ἤγαγον αὐτὸν πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα Βαβυλῶνος εἰς Δεβλαθά, καὶ ἐλάλησεν αὐτῷ μετὰ κρίσεως.
10The king of Babylon killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes. He also killed all the princes of Judah in Riblah.
10καὶ ἔσφαξε βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος τοὺς υἱοὺς Σεδεκίου κατ' ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ, καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἄρχοντας Ἰούδα ἔσφαξεν ἐν Δεβλαθά.
11He 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 until the day of his death.
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.
12Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of King Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, who stood before the king of Babylon, came into Jerusalem.
12καὶ ἐν μηνὶ πέμπτῳ, δεκάτῃ τοῦ μηνός, ἦλθε Ναβουζαρδὰν ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος ὁ ἑστηκὼς κατὰ πρόσωπον τοῦ βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος εἰς Ἱερουσαλήμ,
13He burned the LORD’s house, and the king’s house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, even every great house, he burned with fire.
13καὶ ἐνέπρησε τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου καὶ τὸν οἶκον τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ πάσας τὰς οἰκίας τῆς πόλεως, καὶ πᾶσαν οἰκίαν μεγάλην ἐνέπρησεν ἐν πυρί.
14All the army of the Chaldeans, who were with the captain of the guard, broke down all the walls of Jerusalem all around.
14καὶ πᾶν τεῖχος Ἱερουσαλὴμ κύκλῳ καθεῖλεν ἡ δύναμις τῶν Χαλδαίων, ἡ μετὰ τοῦ ἀρχιμαγείρου.
15Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the poorest of the people, and the rest of the people who were left in the city, and those who fell away, who defected to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.
no verse 15 in this text
16But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poorest of the land to be vineyard keepers and farmers.
16καὶ τοὺς καταλοίπους τοῦ λαοῦ κατέλιπεν ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος εἰς ἀμπελουργοὺς καὶ εἰς γεωργούς.
17The Chaldeans broke the pillars of bronze that were in the LORD’s house and the bases and the bronze sea that were in the LORD’s house in pieces, and carried all of their bronze to Babylon.
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.
18They also took away the pots, the shovels, the snuffers, the basins, the spoons, and all the vessels of bronze with which they ministered.
18καὶ τὴν στεφάνην καὶ τὰς φιάλας καὶ τὰς κρεάγρας καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη τὰ χαλκᾶ, ἐν οἷς ἐλειτούργουν ἐν αὐτοῖς,
19The captain of the guard took away the cups, the fire pans, the basins, the pots, the lamp stands, the spoons, and the bowls; that which was of gold, as gold, and that which was of silver, as silver.
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.
20They took the two pillars, the one sea, and the twelve bronze bulls that were under the bases, which King Solomon had made for the LORD’s house. The bronze of all these vessels was without weight.
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.
21As for the pillars, the height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits; and a line of twelve cubits encircled it; and its thickness was four fingers. It was hollow.
21καὶ οἱ στῦλοι, τριακονταπέντε πηχῶν· ὕψος τοῦ στύλου τοῦ ἑνός, καὶ σπαρτίον δώδεκα πήχεων περιεκύκλου αὐτόν, καὶ τὸ πάχος αὐτοῦ δακτύλων τεσσάρων κύκλῳ,
22A capital of bronze was on it; and the height of the one capital was five cubits, with network and pomegranates on the capital all around, all of bronze. The second pillar also had the same, with pomegranates.
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.
23There were ninety-six pomegranates on the sides; all the pomegranates were one hundred on the network all around.
23καὶ ἦσαν αἱ ρόαι ἐνενηκονταὲξ τὸ ἓν μέρος, καὶ ἦσαν αἱ πᾶσαι ρόαι ἑκατὸν ἐπὶ τοῦ δικτύου κύκλῳ.
24The captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the threshold,
24καὶ ἔλαβεν ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος τὸν ἱερέα τὸν πρῶτον καὶ τὸν ἱερέα τὸν δευτεροῦντα καὶ τοὺς τρεῖς τοὺς φυλάττοντας τὴν ὁδὸν
25and out of the city he took an officer who was set over the men of war; and seven men of those who saw the king’s face, who were found in the city; and the scribe of the captain of the army, who mustered the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land, who were found in the middle of the city.
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·
26Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
26καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτοὺς Ναβουζαρδὰν ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ἤγαγεν αὐτοὺς πρὸς βασιλέα Βαβυλῶνος εἰς Δεβλαθά,
27The king of Babylon struck them, and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away captive out of his land.
27καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτοὺς βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος ἐν Δεβλαθά, ἐν γῇ Αἰμάθ.
28This is the number of the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away captive: in the seventh year, three thousand twenty-three Jews;

31In the thirty-seventh year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the twenty-fifth day of the month, Evilmerodach king of Babylon, in the first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and released him from prison.
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·
32He spoke kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon,
32καὶ ἐλάλησεν αὐτῷ χρηστὰ καὶ ἔδωκε τὸν θρόνον αὐτοῦ ἐπάνω τῶν βασιλέων τῶν μετ' αὐτοῦ ἐν Βαβυλῶνι·
33and changed his prison garments. Jehoiachin ate bread before him continually all the days of his life.
33καὶ ἤλλαξε τὴν στολὴν τῆς φυλακῆς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἤσθιεν ἄρτον διὰ παντὸς κατὰ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας, ἃς ἔζησε.
34For his allowance, there was a continual allowance given him by the king of Babylon, every day a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
34καὶ ἡ σύνταξις αὐτῷ ἐδίδοτο διὰ παντὸς παρὰ τοῦ βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος ἐξ ἡμέρας εἰς ἡμέραν ἕως ἡμέρας, ἧς ἀπέθανεν.
