1 西底家登基的时候年二十一岁,在耶路撒冷作王十一年。他母亲名叫哈慕她,是立拿人耶利米的女儿。
2 西底家行耶和华眼中看为恶的事,是照约雅敬一切所行的。
3 因此耶和华的怒气在耶路撒冷和犹大发作,以致将人民从自己的面前赶出。
4 西底家背叛巴比伦王。他作王第九年十月初十日,巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒率领全军来攻击耶路撒冷,对城安营,四围筑垒攻城。
5 于是城被围困直到西底家王十一年。
6 四月初九日,城里有大饥荒,甚至百姓都没有粮食。
7 城被攻破,一切兵丁就在夜间从靠近王园两城中间的门,出城逃跑。迦勒底人正在四围攻城。他们就往亚拉巴逃去。
8 迦勒底的军队追赶西底家王,在耶利哥的平原追上他。他的全军都离开他四散了。
9 迦勒底人就拿住王,带他到哈马地的利比拉巴比伦王那里。巴比伦王便审判他。
10 巴比伦王在西底家眼前杀了他的众子,又在利比拉杀了犹大的一切首领,
11 并且剜了西底家的眼睛,用铜链锁着他,带到巴比伦去,将他囚在监里,直到他死的日子。
12 巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒十九年五月初十日,在巴比伦王面前侍立的护卫长尼布撒拉旦进入耶路撒冷,
13 用火焚烧耶和华的殿和王宫,又焚烧耶路撒冷的房屋,就是各大户家的房屋。
14 跟从护卫长迦勒底的全军就拆毁耶路撒冷四围的城墙。
15 那时护卫长尼布撒拉旦将民中最穷的和城里所剩下的百姓,并已经投降巴比伦王的人,以及大众所剩下的人,都掳去了。
16 但护卫长尼布撒拉旦留下些民中最穷的,使他们修理葡萄园,耕种田地。
17 耶和华殿的铜柱并殿内的盆座和铜海,迦勒底人都打碎了,将那铜运到巴比伦去了,
18 又带去锅,铲子,蜡剪,盘子,调羹,并所用的一切铜器,
19 杯,火鼎,碗,盆,灯台,调羹,爵,无论金的银的,护卫长也都带去了。
20 所罗门为耶和华殿所造的两根铜柱,一个铜海,并座下的十二只铜牛,这一切的铜多得无法可称。
21 这一根柱子高十八肘,厚四指,是空的,围十二肘。
22 柱上有铜顶,高五肘。铜顶的周围有网子和石榴,都是铜的。那一根柱子照此一样,也有石榴。
23 柱子四面有九十六个石榴,在网子周围,共有一百石榴。
24 护卫长拿住大祭司西莱雅,副祭司西番亚,和三个把门的,
25 又从城中拿住一个管理兵丁的官(或作太监),并在城里所遇常见王面的七个人和检点国民军长的书记,以及城里所遇见的国民六十个人。
26 护卫长尼布撒拉旦将这些人带到利比拉巴比伦王那里。
27 巴比伦王就把他们击杀在哈马地的利比拉。这样,犹大人被掳去离开本地。
28 尼布甲尼撒所掳的民数记在下面,在他第七年掳去犹大人三千零二十三名。
29 尼布甲尼撒十八年从耶路撒冷掳去八百三十二人。
30 尼布甲尼撒二十三年,护卫长尼布撒拉旦掳去犹大人七百四十五名。共有四千六百人。
31 犹大王约雅斤被掳后三十七年,巴比伦王以未米罗达元年十二月二十五日,使犹大王约雅斤抬头,提他出监,
32 又对他说恩言,使他的位高过与他一同在巴比伦众王的位,
33 给他脱了囚服。他终身在巴比伦王面前吃饭。
34 巴比伦王赐他所需用的食物,日日赐他一分,终身是这样,直到他死的日子。
King James Version
Chapter 52
52:1 Zedekiah was one and twenty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
52:2 And he did that which was evil in the eyes of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
52:3 For through the anger of the LORD it came to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, till he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
52:4 And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and pitched against it, and built forts against it round about.
52:5 So the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
52:6 And in the fourth month, in the ninth day of the month, the famine was sore in the city, so that there was no bread for the people of the land.
52:7 Then the city was broken up, and all the men of war fled, and went forth out of the city by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king's garden; (now the Chaldeans were by the city round about:) and they went by the way of the plain.
52:8 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
52:9 Then they took the king, and carried him up unto the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; where he gave judgment upon him.
52:10 And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes: he slew also all the princes of Judah in Riblah.
52:11 Then he put out the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon bound him in chains, and carried him to Babylon, and put him in prison till the day of his death.
52:12 Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, which served the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem,
52:13 And burned the house of the LORD, and the king's house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, and all the houses of the great men, burned he with fire:
52:14 And all the army of the Chaldeans, that were with the captain of the guard, brake down all the walls of Jerusalem round about.
52:15 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive certain of the poor of the people, and the residue of the people that remained in the city, and those that fell away, that fell to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.
52:16 But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left certain of the poor of the land for vinedressers and for husbandmen.
52:17 Also the pillars of brass that were in the house of the LORD, and the bases, and the brasen sea that was in the house of the LORD, the Chaldeans brake, and carried all the brass of them to Babylon.
52:18 The caldrons also, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the bowls, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass wherewith they ministered, took they away.
52:19 And the basons, and the firepans, and the bowls, and the caldrons, and the candlesticks, and the spoons, and the cups; that which was of gold in gold, and that which was of silver in silver, took the captain of the guard away.
52:20 The two pillars, one sea, and twelve brasen bulls that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made in the house of the LORD: the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
52:21 And concerning the pillars, the height of one pillar was eighteen cubits; and a fillet of twelve cubits did compass it; and the thickness thereof was four fingers: it was hollow.
52:22 And a chapiter of brass was upon it; and the height of one chapiter was five cubits, with network and pomegranates upon the chapiters round about, all of brass. The second pillar also and the pomegranates were like unto these.
52:23 And there were ninety and six pomegranates on a side; and all the pomegranates upon the network were an hundred round about.
52:24 And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the door:
52:25 He took also out of the city an eunuch, which had the charge of the men of war; and seven men of them that were near the king's person, which were found in the city; and the principal scribe of the host, who mustered the people of the land; and threescore men of the people of the land, that were found in the midst of the city.
52:26 So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
52:27 And the king of Babylon smote them, and put them to death in Riblah in the land of Hamath. Thus Judah was carried away captive out of his own land.
52:28 This is the people whom Nebuchadrezzar carried away captive: in the seventh year three thousand Jews and three and twenty:
52:29 In the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar he carried away captive from Jerusalem eight hundred thirty and two persons:
52:30 In the three and twentieth year of Nebuchadrezzar Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive of the Jews seven hundred forty and five persons: all the persons were four thousand and six hundred.
52:31 And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the five and twentieth day of the month, that Evilmerodach king of Babylon in the first year of his reign lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought him forth out of prison,
52:32 And spake kindly unto him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon,
52:33 And changed his prison garments: and he did continually eat bread before him all the days of his life.
52:34 And for his diet, there was a continual diet given him of the king of Babylon, every day a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
