2 Mga Hari 25

¹ At nangyari nang ikasiyam na taon ng kaniyang paghahari sa ikasangpung buwan, nang ikasangpung araw ng buwan, na si Nabucodonosor na hari sa Babilonia ay naparoon, siya at ang buo niyang hukbo, laban sa Jerusalem, at humantong laban doon; at nagsipagtayo sila ng mga kuta sa palibot laban doon.

¹ Now in the ninth year of his reign, on the tenth day of the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, camped against it and built a siege wall all around it.

³ Nang ikasiyam na araw ng ikaapat na buwan, ang kagutom ay lumala sa bayan, na anopa't walang tinapay sa bayan ng lupain.

³ On the ninth day of the fourth month the famine was so severe in the city that there was no food for the people of the land.

⁵ Nguni't hinabol ng hukbo ng mga Caldeo ang hari, at inabutan nila siya sa mga kapatagan ng Jerico: at ang buo niyang hukbo ay nangalat sa kaniya.

⁵ But the army of the Chaldeans pursued the king and overtook him in the plains of Jericho and all his army was scattered from him.

⁷ At kanilang pinatay ang mga anak ni Sedecias, sa harap ng kaniyang mga mata, at inukit ang mga mata ni Sedecias at siya'y nilagyan ng damal, at dinala siya sa Babilonia.

⁷ They slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, then put out the eyes of Zedekiah and bound him with bronze fetters and brought him to Babylon.

⁹ At kaniyang sinunog ang bahay ng Panginoon, at ang bahay ng hari; at ang lahat na bahay sa Jerusalem, sa makatuwid baga'y bawa't malaking bahay, ay sinunog niya ng apoy.

⁹ He burned the house of the Lord, the king’s house, and all the houses of Jerusalem; even every great house he burned with fire.

¹¹ At ang nalabi na mga tao na naiwan sa bayan, at yaong nagsihiwalay, na nagsihilig sa hari sa Babilonia, at ang labi sa karamihan, ay dinalang bihag ni Nabuzaradan na punong kawal ng bantay.

¹¹ Then the rest of the people who were left in the city and the deserters who had deserted to the king of Babylon and the rest of the people, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away into exile.

¹³ At ang mga haliging tanso na nangasa bahay ng Panginoon, at ang mga tungtungan at ang dagatdagatan na tanso na nasa bahay ng Panginoon, ay dinurog ng mga Caldeo, at dinala ang tanso sa Babilonia.

¹³ Now the bronze pillars which were in the house of the Lord, and the stands and the bronze sea which were in the house of the Lord, the Chaldeans broke in pieces and carried the bronze to Babylon.

¹⁵ At ang mga apuyan, at ang mga mangkok; na ang sa ginto, ay ginto, at ang sa pilak ay pilak, pinagdadala ng punong kawal ng bantay.

¹⁵ The captain of the guard also took away the firepans and the basins, what was fine gold and what was fine silver.

¹⁷ Ang taas ng isang haligi ay labing walong siko, at isang kapitel na tanso ang nasa dulo niyaon; at ang taas ng kapitel ay tatlong siko, na may yaring lambat at mga granada sa kapitel sa palibot, lahat ay tanso; at mayroong gaya ng mga ito ang ikalawang haligi na may yaring lambat.

¹⁷ The height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits, and a bronze capital was on it; the height of the capital was three cubits, with a network and pomegranates on the capital all around, all of bronze. And the second pillar was like these with network.

¹⁹ At sa bayan ay kumuha siya ng isang pinuno na inilagay sa mga lalaking mangdidigma: at limang lalake sa kanila na nakakita ng mukha ng hari na nangasumpungan sa bayan: at ang kalihim, ang punong kawal ng hukbo, na humusay ng bayan ng lupain; at anim na pung lalake ng bayan ng lupain, na nangasumpungan sa bayan.

¹⁹ From the city he took one official who was overseer of the men of war, and five of the king’s advisers who were found in the city; and the scribe of the captain of the army who mustered the people of the land; and sixty men of the people of the land who were found in the city.

²¹ At sinaktan sila ng hari sa Babilonia, at pinatay sila sa Ribla, sa lupain ng Hamath. Sa gayo'y dinala ang Juda na bihag mula sa kaniyang lupain.

²¹ Then the king of Babylon struck them down and put them to death at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was led away into exile from its land.

²³ Nang mabalitaan nga ng lahat ng pinuno ng mga hukbo, nila, at ng kanilang mga lalake, na ginawang tagapamahala si Gedalias ng hari sa Babilonia, ay nagsiparoon sila kay Gedalias sa Mizpa, sa makatuwid bagay si Ismael na anak ni Nathanias, at si Johanan na anak ni Carea, at si Saraia na anak ni Tanhumet, na Netofatita, at si Jaazanias na anak ng Maachateo, sila at ang kanilang mga lalake.

²³ When all the captains of the forces, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedaliah governor, they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, namely, Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of the Maacathite, they and their men.

²⁵ Nguni't nangyari nang ikapitong buwan, na si Ismael na anak ni Nathanias, na anak ni Elisama, na mula sa lahing hari, at sangpung lalake na kasama niya, ay naparoon, at sinaktan si Gedalias, na anopa't namatay, at ang mga Judio at ang mga Caldeo, na mga kasama niya sa Mizpa.

²⁵ But it came about in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the royal family, came with ten men and struck Gedaliah down so that he died along with the Jews and the Chaldeans who were with him at Mizpah.

²⁷ At nangyari nang ikatatlongpu't pitong taon ng pagkabihag ni Joachin na hari sa Juda, nang ikalabing dalawang buwan, nang ikadalawangpu't pitong araw ng buwan, na si Evil-merodach na hari sa Babilonia, nang taon na siya'y magpasimulang maghari, ay itinaas ang ulo ni Joachin na hari sa Juda sa bilangguan;

²⁷ Now it came about in the thirty-seventh year of the exile of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon, in the year that he became king, released Jehoiachin king of Judah from prison;

²⁹ At kaniyang pinalitan ang kaniyang damit na pagkabihag. At kumain si Joachin ng tinapay sa harap niya na palagi sa lahat ng kaarawan ng kaniyang buhay.

²⁹ Jehoiachin changed his prison clothes and had his meals in the king’s presence regularly all the days of his life;
