2 Tantara 36
1 Ary ny vahoaka naka an’ i Joahaza, zanak’ i Josia, ka nampanjaka azy tany Jerosalema handimby an-drainy.
And the people of the land took Joachaz the son of Josias, and anointed him, and made him king over Jerusalem in the room of his father.
2 Telo amby roa-polo taona loahaza, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary telo volana no nanjakany tany Jerosalema.
Joachaz [was] twenty-three years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Amital, daughter of Jeremias of Lobna. And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his fathers had done. And Pharao Nechao bound him in Deblatha in the land of Aemath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem.
3 Ary nesorin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Egypta tany Jerosalema izy, sady nampandoaviny sazy talenta volafotsy zato sy talenta volamena iray ny fanjakana.
And the king brought him over to Egypt; and imposed a tribute on the land, a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.
4 Ary ny mpanjakan’ i Egypta nampanjaka an’ i Eliakima, rahalahin’ i Joahaza, tamin’ ny Joda sy Jerosalema, ary ny anarany dia novany hoe Joiakima; ary Joahaza rahalahiny kosa dia nalainy ka nentiny ho any Egypta.
And Pharao Nechao made Eliakim the son of Josias king over Juda in the room of his father Josias, and changed his name [to] Joakim. And Pharao Nechao took his brother Joachaz and brought him into Egypt, and he died there: but [he] had given the silver and gold to Pharao. At that time the land began to be taxed to give the money at the command of Pharao; and every one as he could borrowed the silver and the gold of the people of the land, to give to Pharao Nechao.
5 Dimy amby roa-polo taona Joiakima, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary iraika ambin’ ny folo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema. Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny izy.
Joachim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.
6 Ary Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, dia niakatra namely azy ka namatotra azy tamin’ ny gadra varahina mba hitondra azy ho any Babylona.
And Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came up against him, and bound him with brazen fetters, and carried him away to Babylon.
7 Ary ny fanaka sasany tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah dia nentin’ i Nebokadnezara ho any Babylona koa ka nataony tao amin’ ny tempoliny tany Babylona.
And he carried away a part of the vessels of the house of the Lord to Babylon, and put them in his temple in Babylon.
8 Ary ny tantaran’ i Joiakima sisa sy ny fahavetavetana nataony mbamin’ izay toetoeny rehetra, dia, indro, efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely sy ny Joda izany; ary Joiakina zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
And the rest of the acts of Joakim, and all that he did, behold, [are] not these things written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Juda? And Joakim slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in Ganozae: and Jechonias his son reigned in his stead.
9 Valo taona Joiakina, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary telo volana sy hafoloana no nanjakany tany Jerosalema; ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah izy.
Jechonias [was] eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem, and did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.
10 Ary nony niherina ny taona, dia naniraka Nebokadnezara mpanjaka ka nitondra azy mbamin’ ny fanaka tsara tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah ho any Babylona, dia nampanjaka an’ i Zedekia rahalahin-drainy tamin’ ny Joda sy Jerosalema izy.
And at the turn of the year, king Nabuchodonosor sent, and brought him to Babylon, with the precious vessels of the house of the Lord, and made Sedekias his father's brother king over Juda and Jerusalem.
11 Iraika amby roa-polo taona Zedekia, fony izy vao nanjaka, ary iraika ambin’ ny folo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema.
Sedekias [was] twenty-one years old when he began to reign, and be reigned eleven years in Jerusalem.
12 Ary nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny izy, fa tsy nanetry tena teo anatrehan’ i Jeremia mpaminany, izay nilaza ny tenin’ Andriamanitra.
And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord his God: he was not ashamed before the prophet Jeremias, nor because of the word of the Lord;
13 Ary nikomy tamin’ i Nebokadnezara mpanjaka izay efa nampianiana azy tamin’ Andriamanitra koa izy; ary nanamafy ny hatony sy nanasarotra ny fony izy mba tsy hiverina ho amin’ Andriamanitry ny Isiraely.
in that he rebelled against king Nabuchodonosor, which he adjured him by God [not to do]: but he stiffened his neck, and hardened his heart, so as not to return to the Lord God of Israel.
14 Ary ny lehibe rehetra tamin’ ny mpisorona sy ny vahoaka koa nanao izay mahadiso indrindra araka ny fahavetavetana rehetra fanaon’ ny jentilisa ka nandoto ny tranon’ i Jehovah tany Jerosalema izay nohamasininy.
And all the great men of Juda, and the priests, and the people of the land transgressed abundantly in the abominations of the heathen, and polluted the house of the Lord which [was] in Jerusalem.
15 Kanefa Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany, nampitondra teny ny iraka izay nirahiny ho any aminy; eny, nifoha maraina koa Izy ka naniraka, fa namindra fo tamin’ ny olony sy ny fonenany.
And the Lord God of their fathers sent by the hand of his prophets; rising early and sending his messengers, for he spared his people, and his sanctuary.
16 Kanjo ny olona nihomehy ireny irak’ Andriamanitra ireny sady nanazimba ny teniny sy namazivazy ny mpaminaniny mandra-pihatry ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah taminy, ka tsy nisy nahavonjy azy.
Nevertheless they sneered at his messengers, and set at nought his words, and mocked his prophets, until the wrath of the Lord rose up against his people, till there was no remedy.
17 Koa nentiny namely azy ny mpanjakan’ ny Kaldeana, izay namono ny zatovony tamin’ ny sabatra tao an-trano fitoerana masìna, ary tsy nisy namindrany fo, na zatovo na virijina, na ny antitra sy ny fotsy volo; fa izy rehetra dia natolony ho eo an-tànany avokoa.
And he brought against them the king of the Chaldeans, and slew their young men with the sword in the house of his sanctuary, and did not spare Sedekias, and had no mercy upon their virgins, and they led away their old men: he delivered all things into their hands.
18 Ary ny fanaka rehetra tao an-tranon’ Andriamanitra, na ny vaventy na ny madinika, mbamin’ ny rakitry ny tranon’ i Jehovah ary ny rakitry ny mpanjaka sy ny mpanapaka, ireny rehetra ireny dia nentiny ho any Babylona avokoa.
And all the vessels of the house of God, the great and the small, and the treasures of the house of the Lord, and all the treasures of the king and the great men; he brought all to Babylon.
19 Dia nodorany koa ny tranon’ Andriamanitra, ary noravany ny mandan’ i Jerosalema; ny lapan’ andriana rehetra tao koa dia nodorany tamin’ ny afo, ary ny fanaka tsara rehetra tao nosimbany.
And he burnt the house of the Lord, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt its palaces with fire, and [utterly destroyed] every beautiful vessel.
20 Ary ny olona sisa tsy matin-tsabatra dia nentiny ho babo tany Babylona, ka tonga mpanompo azy sy ny zanany ireny mandra-panjakan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Persia,
And he carried away the remnant to Babylon; and they were servants to him and to his sons until [the establishment of] the kingdom of the Medes.
21 hanatanterahana ny tenin’ i Jehovah nampilazaina an’ i Jeremia, mandra-panonitry ny tany ny Sabatany; fa tamin’ ny andro rehetra izay nahafoanany dia natsahatra ny tany mba hanonitra ny Sabatany mandra-pahatapitry ny fito-polo taona.
That the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias might be fulfilled, until the land should enjoy its sabbaths in resting [and] sabbath keeping all the days of its desolation, till the accomplishment of seventy years.
22 Ary tamin’ ny taona voalohany nanjakan’ i Kyrosy, mpanjakan’ i Perisa, dia notairin’ i Jehovah ny fanahin’ i Kyrosy mpanjakan’ i Persia, mba hanatanteraka ny tenin’ i Jehovah izay nampilazainy an’ i Jeremia, ka dia nandefa teny eran’ ny fanjakany rehetra izy, sady nataony an-tsoratra koa izany hoe:
In the first year of Cyrus king of the Persians, after the fulfillment of the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of the Persians, and told him to make proclamation in writing throughout all his kingdom, saying,
23 Izao no lazain’ i Kyrosy, mpanjakan’ i Persia: Ny fanjakana rehetra ambonin’ ny tany dia efa nomen’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny lanitra, ahy; ary Izy efa nandidy ahy hanao trano ho Azy any Jerosalema, izay any Joda. Koa iza avy moa aminareo rehetra no olony? Jehovah Andriamaniny anie nomba azy, fa aoka hiakatra izy.
Thus says Cyrus king of the Persians to all the kingdoms of the earth, The Lord God of heaven has given me [power], and he has commanded me to build a house to him in Jerusalem, in Judea. Who [is there] of you of all his people? His God shall be with him, and let him go up.
