|
|
ג
וַיְסִירֵהוּ מֶלֶךְ-מִצְרַיִם, בִּירוּשָׁלִָם; וַיַּעֲנֹשׁ, אֶת-הָאָרֶץ, מֵאָה כִכַּר-כֶּסֶף, וְכִכַּר זָהָב.
|

|
6
Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
|
|
ז
וּמִכְּלֵי בֵּית יְהוָה, הֵבִיא נְבוּכַדְנֶאצַּר לְבָבֶל; וַיִּתְּנֵם בְּהֵיכָלוֹ, בְּבָבֶל.
|

|
ט
בֶּן-שְׁמוֹנֶה שָׁנִים, יְהוֹיָכִין בְּמָלְכוֹ, וּשְׁלֹשָׁה חֳדָשִׁים וַעֲשֶׂרֶת יָמִים, מָלַךְ בִּירוּשָׁלִָם; וַיַּעַשׂ הָרַע, בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה.

וַיַּעַשׂ הָרַע, בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה אֱלֹהָיו: לֹא נִכְנַע, מִלִּפְנֵי יִרְמְיָהוּ הַנָּבִיא--מִפִּי יְהוָה.
|
12
and he did that which was evil in the sight of YAHOWAH his Eloheem; he humbled not himself before Jeremiah the prophet speaking from the mouth of YAHOWAH.
|
|
יג
וְגַם בַּמֶּלֶךְ נְבוּכַדְנֶאצַּר, מָרָד, אֲשֶׁר הִשְׁבִּיעוֹ, בֵּאלֹהִים; וַיֶּקֶשׁ אֶת-עָרְפּוֹ, וַיְאַמֵּץ אֶת-לְבָבוֹ, מִשּׁוּב, אֶל-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל.
|
13
And he also rebelled against king Nebuchadnezzar, who had made him swear by Eloheem; but he stiffened his neck, and hardened his heart from turning unto YAHOWAH, the Eloheem of Yisrael.
|
|
יד
גַּם כָּל-שָׂרֵי הַכֹּהֲנִים וְהָעָם, הִרְבּוּ למעול- (לִמְעָל-) מַעַל, כְּכֹל, תֹּעֲבוֹת הַגּוֹיִם; וַיְטַמְּאוּ אֶת-בֵּית יְהוָה, אֲשֶׁר הִקְדִּישׁ בִּירוּשָׁלִָם.
|

|
טו
וַיִּשְׁלַח יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי אֲבוֹתֵיהֶם עֲלֵיהֶם, בְּיַד מַלְאָכָיו--הַשְׁכֵּם וְשָׁלוֹחַ: כִּי-חָמַל עַל-עַמּוֹ, וְעַל-מְעוֹנוֹ.
|
15
And YAHOWAH, the Eloheem of their fathers, sent to them by His messengers, sending betimes and often; because He had compassion on His people, and on His dwelling-place;
|
|
טז
וַיִּהְיוּ מַלְעִבִים, בְּמַלְאֲכֵי הָאֱלֹהִים, וּבוֹזִים דְּבָרָיו, וּמִתַּעְתְּעִים בִּנְבִאָיו: עַד עֲלוֹת חֲמַת-יְהוָה, בְּעַמּוֹ--עַד-לְאֵין מַרְפֵּא.
|
16
but they mocked the messengers of Eloheem, and despised His words, and scoffed at His prophets, until the wrath of YAHOWAH arose against His people, till there was no remedy.
|
|
יז
וַיַּעַל עֲלֵיהֶם אֶת-מֶלֶךְ כשדיים (כַּשְׂדִּים), וַיַּהֲרֹג בַּחוּרֵיהֶם בַּחֶרֶב בְּבֵית מִקְדָּשָׁם, וְלֹא חָמַל עַל-בָּחוּר וּבְתוּלָה, זָקֵן וְיָשֵׁשׁ: הַכֹּל, נָתַן בְּיָדוֹ.
|
17
Therefore He brought upon them the king of the Chaldeans, who slew their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion upon young man or maiden, old man or hoary-headed; He gave them all into his hand.

וְכֹל כְּלֵי בֵּית הָאֱלֹהִים, הַגְּדֹלִים וְהַקְּטַנִּים, וְאֹצְרוֹת בֵּית יְהוָה, וְאֹצְרוֹת הַמֶּלֶךְ וְשָׂרָיו--הַכֹּל, הֵבִיא בָבֶל.
|
18
And all the vessels of the house of Eloheem, great and small, and the treasures of the house of YAHOWAH, and the treasures of the king, and of his princes; all these he brought to Babylon.
|
|
יט
וַיִּשְׂרְפוּ, אֶת-בֵּית הָאֱלֹהִים, וַיְנַתְּצוּ, אֵת חוֹמַת יְרוּשָׁלִָם; וְכָל-אַרְמְנוֹתֶיהָ שָׂרְפוּ בָאֵשׁ, וְכָל-כְּלֵי מַחֲמַדֶּיהָ לְהַשְׁחִית.
|
19
And they burnt the house of Eloheem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt all the palaces thereof with fire, and destroyed all the goodly vessels thereof.
|
|
כ
וַיֶּגֶל הַשְּׁאֵרִית מִן-הַחֶרֶב, אֶל-בָּבֶל; וַיִּהְיוּ-לוֹ וּלְבָנָיו לַעֲבָדִים, עַד-מְלֹךְ מַלְכוּת פָּרָס.
|
20
And them that had escaped from the sword carried he away to Babylon; and they were servants to him and his sons until the reign of the kingdom of Persia;
|
|
כא
לְמַלֹּאות דְּבַר-יְהוָה בְּפִי יִרְמְיָהוּ, עַד-רָצְתָה הָאָרֶץ אֶת-שַׁבְּתוֹתֶיהָ: כָּל-יְמֵי הָשַּׁמָּה שָׁבָתָה, לְמַלֹּאות שִׁבְעִים שָׁנָה. {ס}
|
21
to fulfil the word of YAHOWAH by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had been paid her sabbaths; for as long as she lay desolate she kept sabbath, to fulfil threescore and ten years.
{S}
|
|
כב
וּבִשְׁנַת אַחַת, לְכוֹרֶשׁ מֶלֶךְ פָּרַס, לִכְלוֹת דְּבַר-יְהוָה, בְּפִי יִרְמְיָהוּ--הֵעִיר יְהוָה, אֶת-רוּחַ כּוֹרֶשׁ מֶלֶךְ-פָּרַס, וַיַּעֲבֶר-קוֹל בְּכָל-מַלְכוּתוֹ, וְגַם-בְּמִכְתָּב לֵאמֹר. {ס}
|
22
Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of YAHOWAH by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, YAHOWAH stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying:
{S}
|
|
כג
כֹּה-אָמַר כּוֹרֶשׁ מֶלֶךְ פָּרַס, כָּל-מַמְלְכוֹת הָאָרֶץ נָתַן לִי יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי הַשָּׁמַיִם, וְהוּא-פָקַד עָלַי לִבְנוֹת-לוֹ בַיִת, בִּירוּשָׁלִַם אֲשֶׁר בִּיהוּדָה: מִי-בָכֶם מִכָּל-עַמּוֹ, יְהוָה אֱלֹהָיו עִמּוֹ--וְיָעַל. {ש}
|
23
'Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia: All the kingdoms of the earth hath YAHOWAH, the Eloheem of heaven, given me; and He hath charged me to build Him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whosoever there is among you of all His people--YAHOWAH his Eloheem be with him--let him go up.'
{P}
