Jeremía 52
Icelandic Bible
52 Sedekía var tuttugu og eins árs að aldri, þá er hann varð konungur, og ellefu ár ríkti hann í Jerúsalem. Móðir hans hét Hamútal Jeremíadóttir og var frá Líbna.
2 Hann gjörði það sem illt var í augum Drottins, með öllu svo sem gjört hafði Jójakím.
3 Vegna reiði Drottins fór svo fyrir Jerúsalem og Júda, að hann varpaði þeim burt frá augliti sínu. Sedekía brá trúnaði við Babelkonung,
4 og á níunda ríkisári hans, á tíunda degi hins tíunda mánaðar, kom Nebúkadresar Babelkonungur með allan her sinn til Jerúsalem, og þeir settust um hana og reistu hervirki hringinn í kringum hana.
5 Varð borgin þannig í umsátri fram á ellefta ríkisár Sedekía konungs.
6 Í fjórða mánuðinum, á níunda degi mánaðarins, er hungrið tók að sverfa að borginni og landslýður var orðinn vistalaus,
7 þá var brotið skarð inn í borgina. Og konungur og allir hermennirnir flýðu og fóru út úr borginni um nóttina gegnum hliðið milli beggja múranna, sem er hjá konungsgarðinum, þótt Kaldear umkringdu borgina, og héldu leiðina til sléttlendisins.
8 Her Kaldea veitti konungi eftirför og náði Sedekía á Jeríkóvöllum, er allur her hans hafði tvístrast burt frá honum.
9 Tóku þeir konung höndum og fluttu hann til Ribla í Hamat-héraði til Babelkonungs. Hann kvað upp dóm hans.
10 Lét Babelkonungur drepa sonu Sedekía fyrir augum hans. Sömuleiðis lét hann drepa alla höfðingja Júda í Ribla.
11 En Sedekía lét hann blinda og binda eirfjötrum. Síðan lét Babelkonungur flytja hann til Babýlon og setja í fangelsi, og var hann þar til dauðadags.
12 En í fimmta mánuði, á tíunda degi mánaðarins _ það er á nítjánda ríkisári Nebúkadresars Babelkonungs _ kom Nebúsaradan lífvarðarforingi, vildarþjónn Babelkonungs, til Jerúsalem
13 og brenndi musteri Drottins og konungshöllina og öll hús í Jerúsalem, og öll hús stórmennanna brenndi hann í eldi.
14 En allur Kaldeaher, sá er var með lífvarðarforingjanum, reif niður alla múrana umhverfis Jerúsalem.
15 En leifar lýðsins, þá er eftir voru í borginni, og liðhlaupana, þá er hlaupist höfðu í lið með Babelkonungi, og þá sem eftir voru af iðnaðarmönnum, herleiddi Nebúsaradan lífvarðarforingi til Babýlon.
16 En af almúga landsins lét Nebúsaradan lífvarðarforingi nokkra verða eftir sem víngarðsmenn og akurkarla.
17 Eirsúlurnar, er voru við musteri Drottins, og undirstöðupallana og eirhafið, er voru í musteri Drottins, brutu Kaldear sundur og fluttu allan eirinn til Babýlon.
18 Og katlana, eldspaðana, skarbítana, ádreifingarskálarnar, bollana og öll eiráhöldin, er notuð voru við guðsþjónustuna, tóku þeir.
19 Þá tók og lífvarðarforinginn katlana, eldpönnurnar, ádreifingarskálarnar, pottana, ljósastikurnar, bollana, kerin _ allt sem var af gulli og silfri.
20 Súlurnar tvær, hafið og undirstöðupallana, er Salómon konungur hafði gjöra látið í musteri Drottins _ eirinn úr öllum þessum áhöldum varð eigi veginn.
21 En hvað súlurnar snertir, þá var önnur súlan átján álnir á hæð, og tólf álna langan þráð þurfti til að ná utan um hana, en hún var fjögra fingra þykk, hol að innan.
22 En ofan á henni var súlnahöfuð af eiri og var það fimm álnir á hæð. Riðið net og granatepli voru umhverfis höfuðið, allt af eiri, og eins var á hinni súlunni.
23 En granateplin voru níutíu og sex, þau er út sneru. Öll granateplin voru hundrað á riðna netinu allt um kring.
24 Og lífvarðarforinginn tók Seraja höfuðprest og Sefanía annan prest og þröskuldsverðina þrjá.
25 Og úr borginni tók hann hirðmann einn, er skipaður var yfir hermennina, og sjö menn af þeim, er daglega litu auglit konungs, er fundust í borginni, og ritara hershöfðingjans, þess er bauð út landslýðnum, og sextíu manns af sveitafólki, því er fannst í borginni.
26 Þessa menn tók Nebúsaradan lífvarðarforingi og flutti þá til Ribla til Babelkonungs.
27 En Babelkonungur lét drepa þá í Ribla í Hamat-héraði. Þannig var Júda herleiddur úr landi sínu.
28 Þetta var mannfólkið, sem Nebúkadresar herleiddi: Sjöunda árið 3023 Júdabúa,
29 átjánda ríkisár Nebúkadresars 832 sálir úr Jerúsalem.
30 Tuttugasta og þriðja ríkisár Nebúkadresars herleiddi Nebúsaradan lífvarðarforingi 745 sálir af Júdabúum. Alls voru það 4600 sálir.
31 Og á þrítugasta og sjöunda útlegðarári Jójakíns Júdakonungs, í tólfta mánuðinum, tuttugasta og fimmta dag mánaðarins, náðaði Evíl-Meródak Babelkonungur _ árið sem hann kom til ríkis _ Jójakín Júdakonung og tók hann út úr dýflissunni.
32 Og hann talaði vingjarnlega við hann og setti stól hans ofar stólum hinna konunganna, sem hjá honum voru í Babýlon.
33 Og hann fór úr bandingjafötum sínum og borðaði stöðuglega með honum, meðan hann lifði.

Jeremiah 52
New International Version
The Fall of Jerusalem(A)(B)(C)
52 Zedekiah(D) 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.(E) 2 He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, just as Jehoiakim(F) had done. 3 It was because of the Lord’s anger that all this happened to Jerusalem and Judah,(G) and in the end he thrust them from his presence.(H)
Now Zedekiah rebelled(I) against the king of Babylon.
4 So in the ninth year of Zedekiah’s reign, on the tenth(J) day of the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon marched against Jerusalem(K) with his whole army. They encamped outside the city and built siege works(L) all around it.(M) 5 The city was kept under siege until the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
6 By the ninth day of the fourth month the famine in the city had become so severe that there was no food for the people to eat.(N) 7 Then the city wall was broken through, and the whole army fled.(O) They left the city at night through the gate between the two walls near the king’s garden, though the Babylonians[a] were surrounding the city. They fled toward the Arabah,[b] 8 but the Babylonian[c] army pursued King Zedekiah and overtook him in the plains of Jericho. All his soldiers were separated from him and scattered, 9 and he was captured.(P)
He was taken to the king of Babylon at Riblah(Q) in the land of Hamath,(R) where he pronounced sentence on him. 10 There at Riblah the king of Babylon killed the sons(S) of Zedekiah before his eyes; he also killed all the officials of Judah. 11 Then he put out Zedekiah’s eyes, bound him with bronze shackles and took him to Babylon, where he put him in prison till the day of his death.(T)
12 On the tenth day of the fifth(U) month, in the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan(V) commander of the imperial guard, who served the king of Babylon, came to Jerusalem. 13 He set fire(W) to the temple(X) of the Lord, the royal palace and all the houses(Y) of Jerusalem. Every important building he burned down. 14 The whole Babylonian army, under the commander of the imperial guard, broke down all the walls(Z) around Jerusalem. 15 Nebuzaradan the commander of the guard carried into exile(AA) some of the poorest people and those who remained in the city, along with the rest of the craftsmen[d] and those who had deserted(AB) to the king of Babylon. 16 But Nebuzaradan left behind(AC) the rest of the poorest people of the land to work the vineyards and fields.
17 The Babylonians broke up the bronze pillars,(AD) the movable stands(AE) and the bronze Sea(AF) that were at the temple of the Lord and they carried all the bronze to Babylon.(AG) 18 They also took away the pots, shovels, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls,(AH) dishes and all the bronze articles used in the temple service.(AI) 19 The commander of the imperial guard took away the basins, censers,(AJ) sprinkling bowls, pots, lampstands,(AK) dishes(AL) and bowls used for drink offerings(AM)—all that were made of pure gold or silver.(AN)
20 The bronze from the two pillars, the Sea and the twelve bronze bulls(AO) under it, and the movable stands, which King Solomon had made for the temple of the Lord, was more than could be weighed.(AP) 21 Each pillar was eighteen cubits high and twelve cubits in circumference[e]; each was four fingers thick, and hollow.(AQ) 22 The bronze capital(AR) on top of one pillar was five cubits[f] high and was decorated with a network and pomegranates(AS) of bronze all around. The other pillar, with its pomegranates, was similar. 23 There were ninety-six pomegranates on the sides; the total number of pomegranates(AT) above the surrounding network was a hundred.(AU)
24 The commander of the guard took as prisoners Seraiah(AV) the chief priest, Zephaniah(AW) the priest next in rank and the three doorkeepers.(AX) 25 Of those still in the city, he took the officer in charge of the fighting men, and seven royal advisers. He also took the secretary(AY) who was chief officer in charge of conscripting the people of the land, sixty of whom were found in the city. 26 Nebuzaradan(AZ) the commander took them all and brought them to the king of Babylon at Riblah. 27 There at Riblah,(BA) in the land of Hamath, the king had them executed.
So Judah went into captivity, away(BB) from her land. 28 This is the number of the people Nebuchadnezzar carried into exile:(BC)
in the seventh year, 3,023 Jews;
29 in Nebuchadnezzar’s eighteenth year,
832 people from Jerusalem;
30 in his twenty-third year,
745 Jews taken into exile(BD) by Nebuzaradan the commander of the imperial guard.
There were 4,600 people in all.(BE)
Jehoiachin Released(BF)
31 In the thirty-seventh year of the exile of Jehoiachin(BG) king of Judah, in the year Awel-Marduk became king of Babylon, on the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth month, he released Jehoiachin king of Judah and freed him from prison. 32 He spoke kindly to him and gave him a seat of honor higher than those of the other kings who were with him in Babylon. 33 So Jehoiachin put aside his prison clothes and for the rest of his life ate regularly at the king’s table.(BH) 34 Day by day the king of Babylon gave Jehoiachin a regular allowance(BI) as long as he lived, till the day of his death.
