2 Reyes 24

BIBLIA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 En sus días, Nabucodonosor, rey de Babilonia, hizo una expedición y Yoyaquim le quedó sometido durante tres años. Luego volvió a rebelarse contra él.	1 During his days, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, ascended, and Jehoiakim became his servant for three years. And again he rebelled against him.
2 Yahveh envió contra él bandas de caldeos, bandas de arameos, bandas de moabitas y bandas de ammonitas; los envió contra Judá para destruirlo según la palabra que Yahveh había dicho por boca de sus siervos los profetas.	2 And the Lord sent to him the robbers of the Chaldeans, and the robbers of Syria, and the robbers of Moab, and the robbers of the sons of Ammon. And he sent them into Judah, so that they might destroy it, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he had spoken through his servants, the prophets.
3 Tan sólo por orden de Yahveh ocurrió esto en Judá, para apartarlo de su presencia por los pecados de Manasés, por todo lo que había hecho,	3 Then this occurred, by the word of the Lord against Judah, that he took him away from before himself because of all the sins of Manasseh which he did,
4 y también por la sangre inocente que había derramado llenando a Jerusalén de sangre inocente. Yahveh no quiso perdonar.	4 and because of the innocent blood which he shed, and because he filled Jerusalem with the slaughter of the innocent. And for this reason, the Lord was not willing to be appeased.
5 El resto de los hechos de Yoyaquim, todo cuanto hizo ¿no está escrito en el libro de los Anales de los reyes de Judá?	5 But the rest of the words of Jehoiakim, and all that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah? And Jehoiakim slept with his fathers.
6 Se acostó Yoyaquim con sus padres y reinó en su lugar su hijo Joaquín.	6 And Jehoiachin, his son, reigned in his place.
7 No volvió a salir de su tierra el rey de Egipto, porque el rey de Babilonia había conquistado, desde el torrente de Egipto hasta el río Eufrates, todo cuanto era del rey de Egipto.	7 And the king of Egypt no longer continued to go out from his own land. For the king of Babylon had taken all that had belonged to the king of Egypt, from the river of Egypt as far as the river Euphrates.
8 Dieciocho años tenía Joaquín cuando comenzó a reinar y reinó tres meses en Jerusalén; el nombre de su madre era Nejustá, hija de Elnatán, de Jerusalén.	8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for three months in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Nehushta, the daughter of Elnathan, from Jerusalem.
9 Hizo el mal a los ojos de Yahveh enteramente como había hecho su padre.	9 And he did evil before the Lord, in accord with all that his father had done.
10 En aquel tiempo las gentes de Nabucodonosor, rey de Babilonia, subieron contra Jerusalén y la ciudad fue asesiada.	10 At that time, the servants of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, ascended against Jerusalem. And the city was encircled with fortifications.
11 Vino Nabucodonosor, rey de Babilonia, a la ciudad, mientras sus siervos la estaban asediando.	11 And Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, went to the city, with his servants, so that he might fight against it.
12 Joaquín, rey de Judá, se rindió al rey de Babilonia, él, su madre, sus servidores, sus jefes y eunucos; los apresó el rey de Babilonia en el año octavo de su reinado.	12 And Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, went out to the king of Babylon, he, and his mother, and his servants, and his leaders, and his eunuchs. And the king of Babylon received him, in the eighth year of his reign.
13 Se llevó de allí todos los tesoros de la Casa de Yahveh y los tesoros de la casa del rey, rompió todos los objetos de oro que había hecho Salomón, rey de Israel, para el santuario de Yahveh, según la palabra de Yahveh.	13 And he took from there all the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the house of the king. And he cut up all the gold vessels which Solomon, the king of Israel, had made for the temple of the Lord, in accord with the word of the Lord.
14 Deportó a todo Jerusalén, todos los jefes y notables, 10.000 deportados; a todos los herreros y cerrajeros; no dejó más que a la gente pobre del país.	14 And he carried away all of Jerusalem, and all the leaders, and all the strong men of the army, ten thousand, into captivity, with every artisan and craftsman. And no one was left behind, except the poor among the people of the land.
15 Deportó a Babilonia a Joaquín, a la madre del rey y a las mujeres del rey, a sus eunucos y a los notables del país; los hizo partir al destierro, de Jerusalén a Babilonia.	15 Also, he carried away Jehoiachin into Babylon, and the mother of the king, and the wives of the king, and his eunuchs. And he led into captivity the judges of the land, from Jerusalem to Babylon,
16 Todos los hombres de valor, en núnero de 7.000, los herreros y cerrajeros, un millar, todos los hombres aptos para la guerra, el rey de Babilonia los llevó deportados a Babilonia.	16 and all the robust men, seven thousand, and the artisans and craftsman, one thousand: all who were strong men and fit for war. And the king of Babylon led them away as captives, into Babylon.
17 El rey de Babilonia puso por rey, en lugar de Joaquín, a su tío Mattanías, cambiando su nombre en Sedecías.	17 And he appointed Mattaniah, his uncle, in his place. And he imposed the name Zedekiah upon him.
18 Veintiún años tenía Sedecías cuando comenzó a reinar y reinó once años en Jerusalén; el nombre de su madre era Jamital, hija de Jeremías, de Libná.	18 Zedekiah held twenty-one years of life when he had begun to reign. And he reigned for eleven years in Jerusalem. The name of his mother was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah, from Libnah.
19 Hizo el mal a los ojos de Yahveh, enteramente como había hecho Joaquín.	19 And he did evil before the Lord, in accord with all that Jehoiakim had done.
20 Esto sucedió a causa de la cólera de Yahveh contra Jerusalén y Judá, hasta que los arrojó de su presencia. Sedecías se rebeló contra el rey de Babilonia.	20 For the Lord was angry against Jerusalem and against Judah, until he cast them away from his face. And so Zedekiah withdrew from the king of Babylon.
