GREEK BIBLECATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Ενος και εικοσι ετων ηλικιας ητο ο Σεδεκιας οτε εβασιλευσε, και εβασιλευσεν ενδεκα ετη εν Ιερουσαλημ? το δε ονομα της μητρος αυτου ητο Αμουταλ, θυγατηρ του Ιερεμιου απο Λιβνα.1 Zedekiah was a son of twenty-one years when he first began to reign. And he reigned for eleven years in Jerusalem. And the name of his mother was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah from Libnah.
2 Και επραξε πονηρα ενωπιον του Κυριου, κατα παντα οσα επραξεν ο Ιωαχειμ.2 And he did what was evil in the eyes of the Lord, in accord with all that Jehoiakim had done.
3 Διοτι απο του θυμου του Κυριου του γενομενου κατα Ιερουσαλημ και Ιουδα, εωσου απερριψεν αυτους απο προσωπου αυτου, ο Σεδεκιας απεστατησε κατα του βασιλεως της Βαβυλωνος.3 And so the fury of the Lord was toward Jerusalem, and toward Judah, even until he cast them away from his face. And Zedekiah drew away from the king of Babylon.
4 Και εν τω ενατω ετει της βασιλειας αυτου, τον δεκατον μηνα, την δεκατην του μηνος, ηλθε Ναβουχοδονοσορ ο βασιλευς της Βαβυλωνος, αυτος και απαν το στρατευμα αυτου, επι την Ιερουσαλημ, και εστρατοπεδευσαν εναντιον αυτης και ωκοδομησαν περιτειχισμα κατ' αυτης κυκλω.4 And it happened that, in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, on the tenth of the month, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, he and his entire army, came against Jerusalem. And they besieged it, and they built fortifications against it, on every side.
5 Και η πολις επολιορκειτο μεχρι του ενδεκατου ετους του βασιλεως Σεδεκιου.5 And the city was besieged, until the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
6 Εν τω τεταρτω μηνι, την ενατην του μηνος, η πεινα εκραταιωθη εν τη πολει και δεν υπηρχεν αρτος δια τον λαον του τοπου.6 Then, in the fourth month, on the ninth of the month, a famine gripped the city. And there was no nourishment for the people of the land.
7 Και εξεπορθηθη η πολις και παντες οι ανδρες του πολεμου εφυγον και εξηλθον εκ της πολεως την νυκτα, δια της οδου της πυλης της μεταξυ των δυο τειχων, της πλησιον του βασιλικου κηπου? οι δε Χαλδαιοι ησαν πλησιον της πολεως κυκλω, και υπηγον κατα την οδον της πεδιαδος.7 And the city was broken, and all the men of war fled, and they departed from the city at night by way of the gate which is between the two walls, and which leads to the king’s garden, while the Chaldeans were besieging the city all around, and they went away by the road that leads to the wilderness.
8 Το δε στρατευμα των Χαλδαιων κατεδιωξεν οπισω του βασιλεως και εφθασαν τον Σεδεκιαν εις τας πεδιαδας της Ιεριχω? και απαν το στρατευμα αυτου διεσκορπισθη απο πλησιον αυτου.8 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king. And they overtook Zedekiah in the desert which is near Jericho. And all of his companions fled away from him.
9 Και αυνελαβον τον βασιλεα και ανηγαγον αυτον προς τον βασιλεα της Βαβυλωνος εις Ριβλα εν τη γη Αιμαθ και επροφερε καταδικην επ' αυτον.9 And when they had captured the king, they led him away to the king of Babylon at Riblah, which is in the land of Hamath. And he spoke a judgment against him.
10 Και εσφαξεν ο βασιλευς της Βαβυλωνος τους υιους του Σεδεκιου εμπροσθεν των οφθαλμων αυτου? εσφαξεν οτι και παντας τους αρχοντας Ιουδα εν Ριβλα.10 And the king of Babylon cut the throats of the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he also killed all the leaders of Judah at Riblah.
11 Και τους οφθαλμους του Σεδεκιου εξετυφλωσε, και εδεσεν αυτον με δυο χαλκινας αλυσεις? και εφερεν αυτον ο βασιλευς της Βαβυλωνος εις Βαβυλωνα και εβαλεν αυτον εις οικον φυλακης εως της ημερας του θανατου αυτου.11 And he plucked out the eyes of Zedekiah, and he bound him with shackles, and the king of Babylon led him away to Babylon, and he placed him in the prison house, even until the day of his death.
12 Εν δε τω πεμπτω μηνι, τη δεκατη του μηνος, του δεκατου εννατου ετους του Ναβουχοδονοσορ βασιλεως της Βαβυλωνος ηλθεν επι Ιερουσαλημ Νεβουζαραδαν ο αρχισωματοφυλαξ, ο παρισταμενος ενωπιον του βασιλεως της Βαβυλωνος,12 Then, in the fifth month, on the tenth of the month, which is the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, arrived. And he was standing before the king of Babylon at Jerusalem.
13 και κατεκαυσε τον οικον του Κυριου και τον οικον του βασιλεως, και παντας τους οικους της Ιερουσαλημ και παντα μεγαν οικον κατεκαυσεν εν πυρι.13 And he set fire to the house of the Lord, and to the house of the king, and to all the houses of Jerusalem. And every great house he burned with fire.
14 Και απαν το στρατευμα των Χαλδαιων, το μετα του αρχισωματοφυλακος, κατεκρημνισαν παντα τα τειχη της Ιερουσαλημ κυκλω.14 And the entire army of the Chaldeans, who were with the chief of the military, destroyed the entire wall all around Jerusalem.
15 Και εκ των πτωχων του λαου και το υπολοιπον του λαου το εναπολειφθεν εν τη πολει και τους φυγοντας, οιτινες προσεφυγον προς τον βασιλεα της Βαβυλωνος, και το εναπολειφθεν του πληθους, μετωκισε Νεβουζαραδαν ο αρχισωματοφυλαξ.15 Then Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, took away some of the poor people, and some of the rest of the common people, who had remained in the city, and some of the fugitives, who had fled over to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.
16 Εκ των πτωχων ομως της γης αφηκε Νεβουζαραδαν ο αρχισωματοφυλαξ δια αμπελουργους και δια γεωργους.16 Yet truly, some of the poor of the land, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, left behind as vinedressers and farmers.
17 Και τους στυλους τους χαλκινους τους εν τω οικω του Κυριου και τας βασεις και την χαλκινην θαλασσαν την εν τω οικω του Κυριου κατεκοψαν οι Χαλδαιοι, και μετεκομισαν ολον τον χαλκον αυτων εις την Βαβυλωνα.17 The Chaldeans also broke apart the bronze pillars that were in the house of the Lord, and the bases, and the sea of brass that was in the house of the Lord. And they took all the brass of these things to Babylon.
18 Ελαβον δε και τους λεβητας και τα πτυαρια και τα λυχνοψαλιδα και τας λεκανας και τα θυμιατηρια και παντα τα σκευη τα χαλκινα, δια των οποιων εκαμνον την υπηρεσιαν.18 And they took the cooking pots, and the hooks, and the psalteries, and the bowls, and the little mortars, and all the bronze vessels that had been used in the ministry.
19 Ελαβε προσετι ο αρχισωματοφυλαξ και τους κρατηρας και τα πυροδοχεια, και τας λεκανας και τους λεβητας και τας λυχνιας και τα θυμιατηρια και τας φιαλας, οσα ησαν χρυσα και οσα αργυρα?19 And the chief of the military took the water pots, and the censers, and the pitchers, and the basins, and the lampstands, and the mortars, and the little cups, whatever was gold, for the gold, and whatever was silver, for the silver,
20 τους δυο στυλους, την μιαν θαλασσαν και τους δωδεκα χαλκινους μοσχους τους αντι βασεων, τα οποια εκαμεν ο βασιλευς Σολομων δια τον οικον του Κυριου? ο χαλκος παντων τουτων των σκευων ητο αζυγιστος.20 as well as the two pillars, and the one brass sea, and the twelve oxen of brass that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made in the house of the Lord. There was no weight of brass left behind out of all these vessels.
21 Περι δε των στυλων, το υψος του ενος στυλου ητο δεκαοκτω πηχων, και ζωνη πηχων δωδεκα περιεκυκλονεν αυτον, και το παχος αυτου δακτυλων τεσσαρων? ητο κενος.21 Now concerning the pillars, one pillar was eighteen cubits high, and a cord of twelve cubits encircled it. Moreover, its thickness was four fingers, and the interior was hollow.
22 Και το κιονοκρανον το επ' αυτου χαλκινον? το δε υψος του ενος κιονοκρανου πεντε πηχων και το δικτυωτον και τα ροδια επι του κιονοκρανου κυκλω, τα παντα χαλκινα? τα αυτα ειχε και ο δευτερος στυλος μετα των ροδιων.22 And heads of brass were upon both. And the height of one head was five cubits. And little nets with pomegranates were upon the heads all around, all of brass. The second pillar was similar, and the pomegranates.
23 Και ησαν ενενηκοντα εξ ροδια κρεμαμενα? παντα τα ροδια τα επι του δικτυωτου ησαν εκατον κυκλω.23 And there were ninety-six pomegranates hanging down; and there were one hundred pomegranates in all, surrounded by the little nets.
24 Και ελαβεν ο αρχισωματοφυλαξ Σεραιαν τον πρωτον ιερεα και Σοφονιαν τον δευτερον ιερεα και τους τρεις θυρωρους?24 And the chief of the military took Seraiah, the first priest, and Zephaniah, the second priest, and the three keepers of the vestibule.
25 και εκ της πολεως ελαβεν ενα ευνουχον, οστις ητο επιστατης επι των ανδρων των πολεμιστων, και επτα ανδρας εκ των παρισταμενων εμπροσθεν του βασιλεως, τους ευρεθεντας εν τη πολει, και τον γραμματεα τον αρχοντα των στρατευματων, οστις εκαμνε την στρατολογιαν του λαου της γης, και εξηκοντα ανδρας εκ του λαου της γης, τους ευρεθεντας εν μεσω της πολεως.25 He also took from the city one eunuch who was in charge of the men of war, and seven men among those who served before the face of the king, who were found in the city, and a scribe, a leader of the military, who tested the new recruits, and sixty men from the people of the land, who were found in the midst of the city.
26 Και λαβων αυτους Νεβουζαραδαν ο αρχισωματοφυλαξ εφερεν αυτους προς τον βασιλεα της Βαβυλωνος εις Ριβλα.26 Then Nebuzaradan, the chief of the military, took them, and he led them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
27 Και επαταξεν αυτους ο βασιλευς της Βαβυλωνος και εθανατωσεν αυτους εν Ριβλα, εν τη γη Αιμαθ. Ουτω μετωκισθη ο Ιουδας απο της γης αυτου.27 And the king of Babylon struck them and put them to death at Riblah, in the land of Hamath. And Judah was carried away from his land.
28 Ουτος ειναι ο λαος, τον οποιον μετωκισεν ο Ναβουχοδονοσορ, εν τω εβδομω ετει, τρεις χιλιαδας και εικοσιτρεις Ιουδαιους?28 This is the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty-three Jews;
29 εν τω δεκατω ογδοω ετει του Ναβουχοδονοσορ μετωκισεν αυτος απο Ιερουσαλημ οκτακοσιας τριακοντα δυο ψυχας?29 in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, eight hundred thirty-two souls from Jerusalem;
30 εν τω εικοστω τριτω ετει του Ναβουχοδονοσορ μετωκισε Νεβουζαραδαν ο αρχισωματοφυλαξ εκ των Ιουδαιων επτακοσιας τεσσαρακοντα πεντε ψυχας? πασαι αι ψυχαι τεσσαρες χιλιαδες και εξακοσιαι.30 in the twenty-third year of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuzaradan, the chief of the military, carried away of the Jews seven hundred forty-five souls. Therefore, all the souls were four thousand six hundred.
31 Εν δε τω τριακοστω εβδομω ετει της μετοικεσιας του Ιωακειμ βασιλεως του Ιουδα, τον δωδεκατον μηνα, την εικοστην πεμπτην του μηνος, Ευειλ-μερωδαχ ο βασιλευς της Βαβυλωνος, κατα το ετος καθ' ο εβασιλευσεν, ανυψωσε την κεφαλην του Ιωακειμ βασιλεως του Ιουδα και εξηγαγεν αυτον εκ του οικου της φυλακης,31 And it happened that, in the thirty-seventh year of the transmigration of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-fifth of the month, Evilmerodach, the king of Babylon, in the very first year of his reign, lifted up the head of Jehoiachin, the king of Judah, and he brought him out of the prison house.
32 και ελαλησεν ευμενως μετ' αυτου και εθεσε τον θρονον αυτου επανωθεν του θρονου των βασιλεων των μετ' αυτου εν Βαβυλωνι.32 And he spoke with him for good, and he set his throne above the thrones of the kings who were after him in Babylon.
33 Και ηλλαξε τα ιματια της φυλακης αυτου? και ετρωγεν αρτον παντοτε μετ' αυτου πασας τας ημερας της ζωης αυτου.33 And he changed his prison garments, and he ate bread in his sight always, all the days of his life.
34 Και το σιτηρεσιον αυτου ητο παντοτεινον σιτηρεσιον διδομενον εις αυτον παρα του βασιλεως της Βαβυλωνος, ημερησιος χορηγια μεχρι της ημερας του θανατου αυτου, πασας τας ημερας της ζωης αυτου.34 And for his meals, a continual provision was allotted to him by the king of Babylon, a measure for every single day, until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
