2 Tawarikh 36

¹Rakyat negeri menjemput Yoahas anak Yosia, dan mengangkat dia menjadi raja di Yerusalem menggantikan ayahnya.

¹The people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah and made him king in his father's place in Jerusalem.

²Yoahas berumur dua puluh tiga tahun pada waktu ia menjadi raja dan tiga bulan lamanya ia memerintah di Yerusalem.

²Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem.

³Raja Mesir memecatnya dari pemerintahannya di Yerusalem dan mendenda negeri itu seratus talenta perak dan satu talenta emas.

³Then the king of Egypt deposed him in Jerusalem and laid on the land a tribute of a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold.

⁴Kemudian raja Mesir itu mengangkat Elyakim, saudara Yoahas, menjadi raja atas Yehuda dan Yerusalem, dan menukar namanya dengan Yoyakim. Tetapi Yoahas, saudaranya itu, ditawan oleh Nekho, dan dibawa ke Mesir.

⁴And the king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and changed his name to Jehoiakim. But Neco took Jehoahaz his brother and carried him to Egypt.

⁵Yoyakim berumur dua puluh lima tahun pada waktu ia menjadi raja dan sebelas tahun lamanya ia memerintah di Yerusalem. Ia melakukan apa yang jahat di mata TUHAN, Allahnya.

⁵Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. He did what was evil in the sight of the LORD his God.

⁶Nebukadnezar, raja Babel, maju melawan dia, membelenggunya dengan rantai tembaga untuk membawanya ke Babel.

⁶Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and bound him in chains to take him to Babylon.

⁷Juga beberapa perkakas rumah TUHAN dibawa Nebukadnezar ke Babel dan ditempatkan di istananya di Babel.

⁷Nebuchadnezzar also carried part of the vessels of the house of the LORD to Babylon and put them in his palace in Babylon.

⁸Selebihnya dari riwayat Yoyakim, segala kekejian yang dilakukannya dan kesalahan yang ada padanya, sesungguhnya semuanya itu tertulis dalam kitab raja-raja Israel dan Yehuda. Maka Yoyakhin, anaknya, menjadi raja menggantikan dia.

⁸Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and the abominations that he did, and what was found against him, behold, they are written in the Book of the Kings of Israel and Judah. And Jehoiachin his son reigned in his place.

⁹Yoyakhin berumur delapan belas tahun pada waktu ia menjadi raja dan tiga bulan sepuluh hari lamanya ia memerintah di Yerusalem. Ia melakukan apa yang jahat di mata TUHAN.

⁹Jehoiachin was eight years old when he became king, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem. He did what was evil in the sight of the LORD.

¹⁰Pada pergantian tahun raja Nebukadnezar menyuruh membawa dia ke Babel beserta perkakas-perkakas yang indah-indah dari rumah TUHAN dan Zedekia, saudara ayah Yoyakhin, menjadi raja atas Yehuda dan Yerusalem.

¹⁰In the spring of the year King Nebuchadnezzar sent and brought him to Babylon, with the precious vessels of the house of the LORD, and made his brother Zedekiah king over Judah and Jerusalem.

¹¹Zedekia berumur dua puluh satu tahun pada waktu ia menjadi raja dan sebelas tahun lamanya ia memerintah di Yerusalem.

¹¹Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem.

¹²Ia melakukan apa yang jahat di mata TUHAN, Allahnya, dan tidak merendahkan diri di hadapan nabi Yeremia, yang datang membawa pesan TUHAN.

¹²He did what was evil in the sight of the LORD his God. He did not humble himself before Jeremiah the prophet, who spoke from the mouth of the LORD.

¹³Lagipula ia memberontak terhadap raja Nebukadnezar, yang telah menyuruhnya bersumpah demi Allah. Ia menegarkan tengkuknya dan mengeraskan hatinya dan tidak berbalik kepada TUHAN, Allah Israel.

¹³He also rebelled against King Nebuchadnezzar, who had made him swear by God. He stiffened his neck and hardened his heart against turning to the LORD, the God of Israel.

¹⁴Juga semua pemimpin di antara para imam dan rakyat berkali-kali berubah setia dengan mengikuti segala kekejian bangsa-bangsa lain. Rumah yang dikuduskan TUHAN di Yerusalem itu dinajiskan mereka.

¹⁴All the officers of the priests and the people likewise were exceedingly unfaithful, following all the abominations of the nations. And they polluted the house of the LORD that he had made holy in Jerusalem.

¹⁵Namun TUHAN, Allah nenek moyang mereka, berulang-ulang mengirim pesan melalui utusan-utusan-Nya, karena Ia sayang kepada umat-Nya dan tempat kediaman-Nya.

¹⁵The LORD, the God of their fathers, sent persistently to them by his messengers, because he had compassion on his people and on his dwelling place.

¹⁶Tetapi mereka mengolok-olok utusan-utusan Allah itu, menghina segala firman-Nya, dan mengejek nabi-nabi-Nya. Oleh sebab itu murka TUHAN bangkit terhadap umat-Nya, sehingga tidak mungkin lagi pemulihan.

¹⁶But they kept mocking the messengers of God, despising his words and scoffing at his prophets, until the wrath of the LORD rose against his people, until there was no remedy.

¹⁷TUHAN menggerakkan raja orang Kasdim melawan mereka. Raja itu membunuh teruna mereka dengan pedang dalam rumah kudus mereka, dan tidak menyayangkan teruna atau gadis, orang tua atau orang ubanan--semua diserahkan TUHAN ke dalam tangannya.

¹⁷Therefore he brought up against them the king of the Chaldeans, who killed their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary and had no compassion on young man or virgin, old man or aged. He gave them all into his hand.

¹⁸Seluruh perkakas rumah Allah, yang besar dan yang kecil, serta harta benda dari rumah TUHAN, harta benda raja dan harta benda para panglimanya, semuanya dibawanya ke Babel.

¹⁸And all the vessels of the house of God, great and small, and the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king and of his princes, all these he brought to Babylon.

¹⁹Mereka membakar rumah Allah, merobohkan tembok Yerusalem dan membakar segala puri dalam kota itu dengan api, sehingga musnahlah segala perabotannya yang indah-indah.

¹⁹And they burned the house of God and broke down the wall of Jerusalem and burned all its palaces with fire and destroyed all its precious vessels.

²⁰Mereka yang masih tinggal dan yang luput dari pedang diangkutnya ke Babel dan mereka menjadi budaknya dan budak anak-anaknya sampai kerajaan Persia berkuasa.

²⁰He took into exile in Babylon those who had escaped from the sword, and they became servants to him and to his sons until the establishment of the kingdom of Persia,

²¹Dengan demikian genaplah firman TUHAN yang diucapkan Yeremia, sampai tanah itu pulih dari akibat dilalaikannya tahun-tahun sabatnya, karena tanah itu tandus selama menjalani sabat, hingga genaplah tujuh puluh tahun.

²¹to fulfill the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed its Sabbaths. All the days that it lay desolate it kept Sabbath, to fulfill seventy years.

²²Pada tahun pertama zaman Koresh, raja negeri Persia, TUHAN menggerakkan hati Koresh, raja Persia itu untuk menggenapkan firman yang diucapkan oleh Yeremia, sehingga disiarkan di seluruh kerajaan Koresh secara lisan dan tulisan pengumuman ini:

²²Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah might be fulfilled, the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom and also put it in writing:

²³"Beginilah perintah Koresh, raja Persia: Segala kerajaan di bumi telah dikaruniakan kepadaku oleh TUHAN, Allah semesta langit. Ia menugaskan aku untuk mendirikan rumah bagi-Nya di Yerusalem, yang terletak di Yehuda. Siapa di antara kamu termasuk umat-Nya, TUHAN, Allahnya, menyertainya, dan biarlah ia berangkat pulang!"

²³"Thus says Cyrus king of Persia, 'The LORD, the God of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, and he has charged me to build him a house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whoever is among you of all his people, may the LORD his God be with him. Let him go up.'"
