Jeremias 52

SAGRADA BIBLIA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Tinha Sedecias vinte e um anos ao começar seu reinado. Seu reino durou onze anos em Jerusalém. Chamava-se sua mãe Amital, filha de Jeremias, e era natural de Lobna.	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 Como Joaquim, ele também praticou o mal aos olhos do Senhor.	2 And he did what was evil in the eyes of the Lord, in accord with all that Jehoiakim had done.
3 Assim aconteceu em Jerusalém e Judá, por querer o Senhor, em sua cólera, repeli-los para longe de sua presença.	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 No nono ano de seu reinado, no décimo dia do décimo mês, foi Nabucodonosor, com todo o seu exército, contra Jerusalém, armando e construindo fortificações em torno dela.	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 Até o décimo primeiro ano do reinado de Sedecias perdurou o sítio da cidade.	5 And the city was besieged, until the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
6 No nono dia do quarto mês, como a fome invadisse a cidade e não tivesse a população o que comer,	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 uma brecha foi feita na muralha da cidade e, à noite, fugiram os guerreiros pelo caminho da porta entre os dois muros, perto do jardim do rei, enquanto os caldeus cercavam a cidade. Tomaram esses homens o caminho da planície do Jordão.	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 Mas o exército dos caldeus perseguiu o rei e o alcançou nas planícies de Jericó. Então as tropas de Sedecias o abandonaram, dispersando-se em fuga.	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 Foi então o rei aprisionado e conduzido a Rebla, na presença do rei de Babilônia que contra ele pronunciou sua sentença.	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 E, diante de seus olhos, foram degolados em Rebla seus filhos, assim como todos os chefes de Judá.	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 Em seguida, foram-lhe arrancados os olhos e, ligado com cadeias de bronze, levaram-no para Babilônia, onde, até o dia de sua morte, permaneceu encarcerado.	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 No sétimo dia do quinto mês, décimo nono ano do reinado de Nabucodonosor, rei de Babilônia, Nabuzardã, chefe da guarda e servidor do rei de Babilônia, penetrou em Jerusalém,	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 pôs fogo no templo do Senhor, no palácio real, e em todas as casas da cidade, e entregou às chamas as casas dos maiorais.	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 Em seguida, as tropas dos caldeus, que acompanhavam o chefe da guarda, demoliram as muralhas que cercavam Jerusalém.	14 And the entire army of the Chaldeans, who were with the chief of the military, destroyed the entire wall all around Jerusalem.
15 E Nabuzardã, chefe da guarda, deportou para Babilônia uma parte dos pobres da terra e o que restara da população da cidade, bem como os que já se haviam rendido ao rei de Babilônia e o restante dos artífices.	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 O chefe da guarda deixou ali alguns homens pobres, como vinhateiros e lavradores.	16 Yet truly, some of the poor of the land, Nebuzaradan, the leader of the military, left behind as vinedressers and farmers.
17 Quebraram também os caldeus as colunas de bronze do templo do Senhor, juntamente com os pedestais e o mar de bronze que estava no templo, levando todo esse metal para Babilônia.	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 Carregaram também cinzeiros, pás, facas, vasos e demais objetos de bronze que serviam ao culto.	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 Carregou ainda o chefe dos guardas as bacias, os braseiros, vasos, potes, candelabros, taças, copos e colheres, e o que havia em ouro e prata.	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 Quanto às duas colunas, ao mar, aos doze bois de bronze que as sustentavam, e aos pedestais que Salomão mandara fabricar para o templo do Senhor, difícil seria calcular o valor do bronze de todos esses objetos.	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 A altura de uma dessas colunas era de dezoito côvados e um cordão de doze côvados cingia-lhe a volta, sendo a espessura de quatro dedos, e oco o seu interior.	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 Encimava-as um capitel de bronze de cinco côvados; uma grade de romãs, também em bronze, cercavam o alto do capitel. Era semelhante a esta a segunda coluna, com romãs em torno,	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 em número de noventa e seis, e o total das romãs, em volta da grade, era de cem.	23 And there were ninety-six pomegranates hanging down; and there were one hundred pomegranates in all, surrounded by the little nets.
24 O chefe da guarda aprisionou o primeiro sacerdote, Saraías, e Sofonias, o segundo e os três guardas do vestíbulo.	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 Tomou da cidade um eunuco, que era encarregado do comando dos homens de guerra, sete homens do séquito do rei que foram encontrados na cidade, o intendente do exército, encarregado do recrutamento na terra, assim como mais sessenta homens da terra que se encontravam na cidade.	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 Nabuzardã, chefe da guarda, aprisionou-os e mandou-os conduzir a Rebla, ante o rei de Babilônia.	26 Then Nebuzaradan, the chief of the military, took them, and he led them to the king of Babylon at Riblah.
27 E este mandou executá-los em Rebla, na região de Emat. E assim Judá foi deportado para longe de sua terra.	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 Eis o número dos homens que Nabucodonosor levou ao cativeiro: no sétimo ano, 3.032 homens de Judá;	28 This is the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty-three Jews;
29 no décimo oitavo ano de Nabucodonosor, 832 pessoas foram deportadas de Jerusalém;	29 in the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar, eight hundred thirty-two souls from Jerusalem;
30 no vigésimo terceiro ano de Nabucodonosor, Nabuzardã, chefe dos guardas, deportou de Judá 745 pessoas. Ao todo, 4.600 pessoas.	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 No trigésimo sétimo ano do cativeiro de Joaquin, rei de Judá, no vigésimo quinto dia do décimo segundo mês, Evilmerodac, rei de Babilônia, no ano de sua elevação ao trono, perdoou Joaquin, rei de Judá, e mandou libertá-lo da prisão.	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 Falando-lhe com benevolência, designou-lhe um trono mais elevado que o dos reis que estavam com ele em Babilônia.	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 Mandou que lhe mudassem as vestes de prisioneiro e, até o fim de sua vida, Joaquin comeu à mesa do rei da Babilônia.	33 And he changed his prison garments, and he ate bread in his sight always, all the days of his life.
34 Durante toda a sua vida, até o dia de sua morte, sua manutenção foi garantida pelos cuidados do rei de Babilônia.	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.
