52 — Jeremias

1Sedecias was one and twenty years old when he began to reign: and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and the name of his mother was Amital, the daughter of Jeremias of Lobna.Sedecia avea ventun'anno quando cominciò a regnare, e regnò undici anni in Gerusalemme. La sua madre chiamavasi Amital figliuola di Geremia di Lobna.A Child of one and twentie yeares was Sedecias when he began to reigne: and eleuen yeares he reigned in Ierusalem: and the name of his mother was Amital, the daughter of Ieremie of Lobna.Filius viginti et unius anni erat Sedecias cum regnare cœpisset, et undecim annis regnavit in Jerusalem. Et nomen matris ejus Amital filia Jeremiæ de Lobna. 2And he did that which was evil in the eyes of the Lord, according to all that Joakim had done.Ed ei peccò davanti al Signore, facendo in tutto, e per tutto quel, che avea fatto Joachim.And he did euil in the eyes of our Lord, according to al thinges that Ioakim had done.Et fecit malum in oculis Domini, juxta omnia quæ fecerat Joakim, 3For the wrath of the Lord was against Jerusalem, and against Juda, till he cast them out from his presence: and Sedecias revolted from the king of Babylon.Perocché il Signore era irritato contro Gerusalemme, e contro Giuda si altamente, che volea rigettarli da se. E Sedecia si ribellò contro il re di Babilonia.Because the furie of our Lord was against Ierusalem, and against Iuda, til he cast them away from his face: and Sedecias reuolted from the king of Babylon.quoniam furor Domini erat in Jerusalem et in Juda, usquequo projiceret eos a facie sua: et recessit Sedecias a rege Babylonis. 4And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, the tenth day of the month, that Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and they besieged it, and built forts against it round about.E l'anno nono del suo regno, il decimo mese, a' dieci del mese, Nabucodonosor re di Babilonia si mosse egli, e tutto il suo esercito contro Gerusalemme, e la assediarono, e la cinsero di circonvallazione.And it came to passe in the ninth yeare of his reigne, in the tenth moneth, the tenth of the moneth, came Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon, him self and al his armie against Ierusalem, and they besieged it, and built against it munitions round about.Factum est autem in anno nono regni ejus, in mense decimo, decima mensis, venit Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis, ipse et omnis exercitus ejus, adversus Jerusalem: et obsederunt eam, et ædificaverunt contra eam munitiones in circuitu.

5And the city was besieged until the eleventh year of king Sedecias.E la città rimase assediata fino all'undecimo anno di Sedecia.And the citie was besieged vntil the eleuenth yeare of king Sedecias.Et fuit civitas obsessa usque ad undecimum annum regis Sedeciæ. 6And in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, a famine overpowered the city: and there was no food for the people of the land.Ma il quarto mese, ai nove del mese, la fame s'impossessò della città, e il popolo non avea di che nutrirsi.And in the fourth moneth, the ninth of the moneth, a famine possessed the citie: and there were no victuals for the people of the land.Mense autem quarto, nona mensis, obtinuit fames civitatem, et non erant alimenta populo terræ. 7And the city was broken up, and the men of war fled, and went out of the city in the night by the way of the gate that is between the two walls, and leadeth to the king’s garden, (the Chaldeans besieging the city round about,) and they went by the way that leadeth to the wilderness.Ed eran conquassate le mura della città, e tutti i suoi guerrieri si fuggirono, e usciron dalla città di notte per la via della porta, che è tralle due muraglie, e conduce al giardino del re (mentre i Caldei cingevano all'intorno a la città), e se n'andarono per la strada, che mena al deserto.And a breache was made into the citie, and al the men of warre fled, and went out of the citie in the night by the way of the gate that is betwen the two walles, & leadeth to the kinges garden (the Chaldees besieging the citie round about) and they departed by the way, that leadeth into the wildernes.Et dirupta est civitas, et omnes viri bellatores ejus fugerunt, exieruntque de civitate nocte, per viam portæ quæ est inter duos muros, et ducit ad hortum regis, Chaldæis obsidentibus urbem in gyro, et abierunt per viam quæ ducit in eremum. 8But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king: and they overtook Sedecias in the desert which is near Jericho: and all his companions were scattered from him.E L'esercito de' Caldei tenne dietro al re, e presero Sedecia nel deserto, che è vicino a Gerico, e tutti que', che l'accompagnavano, lo abbandonarono.But the armie of the Chaldees pursued the king: and they apprehended Sedecias in the desert, which is beside Iericho: and al his trayne fled scattering from him.Persecutus est autem Chadæorum exercitus regem, et apprehenderunt Sedeciam in deserto quod est juxta Jericho: et omnis comitatus ejus diffugit ab eo. 9And when they had taken the king, they carried him to the king of Babylon to Reblatha, which is in the land of Emath: and he gave judgment upon him.E preso il re, lo condussero al re di Babilonia in Reblatha, che è nella terra di Emath, e questi pronunziò la sentenza contro di lui.And when they had taken the king, they brought him to the king of Babylon into Reblatha, which is in the land of Emath: and to him iudgements.Cumque comprehendissent regem, adduxerunt eum ad regem Babylonis in Reblatha, quæ est in terra Emath, et locutus est ad eum judicia.

10And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Sedecias before his eyes: and he slew all the princes of Juda in Reblatha.E il re di Babilonia fece scannare i figliuoli di Sedecia sotto i suoi occhi; ed uccise eziandio tutti i principi di Giuda in Reblatha.And the king of Babylon killed the sonnes of Sedecias before his eies: yea and al the princes of Iuda he slew in Reblatha.Et jugulavit rex Babylonis filios Sedeciæ in oculis ejus, sed et omnes principes Juda occidit in Reblatha. 11And he put out the eyes of Sedecias, and bound him with fetters, and the king of Babylon brought him into Babylon, and he put him in prison till the day of his death.E fece cavare gli occhi a Sedecia, e lo mise in ceppi, e il re di Babilonia lo condusse a Babilonia, e lo cacciò in prigione per sino al dì della sue morte.And he plucked out the eies of Sedecias, and bound him with fetters, and the king of Babylon brought him into Babylon: and he put him in the prison house euen to the day of his death.Et oculos Sedeciæ eruit, et vinxit eum compedibus, et adduxit eum rex Babylonis in Babylonem, et posuit eum in domo carceris usque ad diem mortis ejus. 12And in the fifth month, the tenth day of the month, the same is the nineteenth year of Nabuchodonosor, king of Babylon, came Nabuzardan the general of the army, who stood before the king of Babylon in Jerusalem.Il quinto mese, a' dieci del mese che correa l'anno decimonono di Nabucodonosor re di Babilonia, arrivò Nabuzardan capitano dell'esercito, il quale comandava per ordine del re di Babilonia in Gerusalemme,And in the fifth moneth, the tenth of the moneth, the same is the ninetenth yeare of Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon: came Nabuzardan the prince of the warfare, who stood before the king of Babylon in Ierusalem.In mense autem quinto, decima mensis, ipse est annus nonusdecimus Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis, venit Nabuzardan princeps militiæ, qui stabat coram rege Babylonis, in Jerusalem, 13And he burnt the house of the Lord, and the king’s house, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and every great house he burnt with fire.E bruciò la casa del Signore, e la casa del re, e tutte le case di Gerusalemme, e tutti i gran palazzi consumò colle fiamme.And he burnt the house of our Lord, and the kings house, and al the houses of Ierusalem, and euerie great house he burnt with fire.et incendit domum Domini, et domum regis, et omnes domos Jerusalem: et omnem domum magnam igni combussit: 14And all the army of the Chaldeans that were with the general broke down all the wall of Jerusalem round about.E tutto il muro, che cingeva Gerusalemme fu atterrato da tutto l'esercito de' Caldei, che v'era col suo capitano.And al the host of the Chaldees that was with the prince of the warfare, destroyed al the wall of Ierusalem round about.et totum murum Jerusalem per circuitum destruxit cunctus exercitus Chaldæorum qui erat cum magistro militiæ.

15But Nabuzardan the general carried away captives some of the poor people, and of the rest of the common sort who remained in the city, and of the fugitives that were fled over to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.E quello, che nella città era rimaso di povera gente, e gli avanzi del volgo, e di disertori, che si erano rifugiati presso il re di Babilonia, e tutto il resto della turba li trasportò Nabuzardan capitano dell'esercito a Babilonia.But of the poore of the people, and of the rest of the vulgar sorte, which remayned in the citie, and of the fugitiues, that were fled to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude: Nabuzardan the prince of the warfare transported.De pauperibus autem populi, et de reliquo vulgo quod remanserat in civitate, et de perfugis qui transfugerant ad regem Babylonis, et ceteros de multitudine transtulit Nabuzardan princeps militiæ. 16But of the poor of the land, Nabuzardan the general left some for vinedressers, and for husbandmen.De' poveri poi del paese Nabuzardan capitano dell'esercito vi lasciò i vignaiuoli, e i lavoratori della terra.But of the poore of the land Nabuzardan the prince of the warfare left some to be dressers of vineyards, and husbandmen.De pauperibus vero terræ reliquit Nabuzardan princeps militiæ vinitores et agricolas. 17The Chaldeans also broke in pieces the brazen 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 carried all the brass of them to Babylon.E i Caldei pure fecer in pezzi le colonne di bronzo, che erano nella casa del Signore, e i piedistalli, e il mare di bronzo, che era nella casa del Signore, e tutto il bronzo lo portarono a Babilonia.The brasen pillers also, that were in the house of our Lord, and the feete, and the sea of brasse, that was in the house of our Lord, the Chaldees brake: and they tooke al the brasse of them into Babylon.Columnas quoque æreas quæ erant in domo Domini, et bases, et mare æneum quod erat in domo Domini, confregerunt Chaldæi, et tulerunt omne æs eorum in Babylonem, 18And they took the caldrons, and the fleshhooks, and the psalteries, and the bowls, and the little mortars, and all the brazen vessels that had been used in the ministry: andE portaron via le caldaie, e le padelle, e i salteri, e le coppe, e i mortaj, e tutti i vasi di bronzo, che servivano ad uso del tempio,And the kettles, and the fleshhookes, and the psalteries, and the phials, and the litle mortars, and al the brasen vessels, that had bene in the ministrie, they tooke:et lebetes, et creagras, et psalteria, et phialas, et mortariola, et omnia vasa ærea quæ in ministerio fuerant, tulerunt: 19The general took away the pitchers, and the censers, and the pots, and the basins, and the candlesticks, and the mortars, and the cups: as many as were of gold, in gold: and as many as were of silver, in silver:E il capitano dell'esercito prese le idrie e i turiboli, e gli orci, e i catini, e i candellieri, e i mortaj, e le tazze, e quanto vi era sia di oro, sia di argento;and the water pottes, and the censars, and the pitchers, and the basins, and the candlestickes, and the mortars, & the gobblets: as manie as of gold, of gold: and as manie as of siluer, of siluer, did the prince of the warfare take:et hydrias, et thymiamateria, et urceos, et pelves, et candelabra, et mortaria, et cyathos, quotquot aurea, aurea, et quotquot argentea, argentea, tulit magister militiæ:

20And the two pillars, and one sea, and 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 the brass of all these vessels.E le due colonne, e il mare, e i dodici vitelli di bronzo, che erano sotto i piedistalli, fatti dal re Salomone nella casa del Signore. Era immenso il peso del bronzo di tutti questi vasi.and two pillars, and one sea, & twelue oxen of brasse, that were vnder the feete, which king Salomon had made in the house of our Lord: there was no weight of the brasse of al these vessels.et columnas duas, et mare unum, et vitulos duodecim æreos qui erant sub basibus quas fecerat rex Salomon in domo Domini. Non erat pondus æris omnium horum vasorum. 21And concerning the pillars, one pillar was eighteen cubits high: and a cord of twelve cubits compassed it about: but the thickness thereof was four fingers, and it was hollow within.E quanto alle colonne, ognuna delle colonne avea diciotto cubiti d'altezza, e una corda di dodici cubiti faceva il suo giro, e avea quattro dita di grossezza, e dentro era vuota.And concerning the pillars, there were eightene cubits of height in one pillar: and a corde of twelue cubits did compasse it about: moreouer the thicknes thereof, of foure fingers, and within it was holow.De columnis autem decem et octo cubiti altitudinis erant in columna una, et funiculus duodecim cubitorum circuibat eam: porro grossitudo ejus quatuor digitorum, et intrinsecus cava erat. 22And chapiters of brass were upon both: and the height of one chapiter was five cubits: and network, and pomegranates were upon the chapiters round about, all of brass. The same of the second pillar, and the pomegranates.E i capitelli dell'una, e dell'altra eran di bronzo. L'altezza di un capitello era cinque cubiti, e vi erano delle reticelle, e de' meligranati, che lo coprivano all'intorno; e il tutto era di bronzo. Così pure l'altra colonna, e i meligranati.And the litle heads of brasse vpon both: the height of one litle head, of fiue cubits: and the litle nettes, and the pomegranates vpon the crowne round about, al of brasse. Likewise of the second piller, and the pomegranates.Et capitella super utramque ærea: altitudo capitelli unius quinque cubitorum, et retiacula et malogranata super coronam in circuitu, omnia ærea: similiter columnæ secundæ, et malogranata. 23And there were ninety-six pomegranates hanging down: and the pomegranates being a hundred in all, were compassed with network.E i meligranati pendenti erano novantasei; e in tutto i meligranati erano cento circondati dalle reticelle.And there were nintie six pomegranates hanging downe: and al the pomegranates an hundred, were compassed with litle nettes.Et fuerunt malogranata nonaginta sex dependentia: et omnia malogranata centum, retiaculis circumdabantur.

24And the general took Saraias the chief priest, and Sophonias the second priest, and the three keepers of the entry.E il capitano dell'esercito prese ancor Saraia primo sacerdote, e Sofonia secondo sacerdote, e i tre custodi del vestibolo.And the master of the warefare tooke Saraias the chiefe priest, and Sophonias the second priest: and the three kepers of the entrie.Et tulit magister militiæ Saraiam sacerdotem primum, et Sophoniam sacerdotem secundum, et tres custodes vestibuli: 25He also took out of the city one eunuch that was chief over the men of war: and seven men of them that were near the king’s person, that were found in the city: and a scribe, an officer of the army who exercised the young soldiers: and threescore men of the people of the land, that were found in the midst of the city.E levò ancora dalla città un eunuco, che avea la soprintendenza delle milizie, e sette persone di quelle, che stavano davanti alla faccia del re, che furono trovate nella città; e il segretario capo delle milizie, che esercitava i soldati novizi, e sessanta uomini del volgo, che si trovarono dentro la città.And of the citie he tooke one eunuch, that was chiefe ouer the men of warre: and seuen men of them, that saw the kings face, that were found in the citie: and a scribe the captayne of the souldiars, who tryed the yong souldiars: and three score of the people of the land, that were found in the middes of the citie.et de civitate tulit eunuchum unum, qui erat præpositus super viros bellatores: et septem viros de his qui videbant faciem regis, qui inventi sunt in civitate: et scribam principem militum, qui probabat tyrones: et sexaginta viros de populo terræ, qui inventi sunt in medio civitatis. 26And Nabuzardan the general took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon, to Reblatha.E Nabuzardan capitano dell'esercito li prese, e li condusse al re di Babilonia a Reblatha.And Nabuzardan the prince of the warfare tooke them, and he brought them to the king of Babylon into Reblatha.Tulit autem eos Nabuzardan magister militiæ, et duxit eos ad regem Babylonis in Reblatha: 27And the king of Babylon struck them, and put them to death in Reblatha, in the land of Emath: and Juda was carried away captive out of his land.E il re di Babilonia li fece tutti uccidere in Reblatha nella terra di Emath. E Giuda fu condotto fuori della sua terra.And the king of Babylon stroke them: and he killed them in Reblatha in the land of Emath: and Iuda was transported from his land.et percussit eos rex Babylonis, et interfecit eos in Reblatha in terra Emath: et translatus est Juda de terra sua.

28This is the people whom Nabuchodonosor carried away captive: in the seventh year, three thousand and twenty-three Jews.Questa è la gente trasportata da Nabucodonosor anno settimo, tre mila, e ventitre Giudei:This is the people, which Nabuchodonosor transported: In the seuenth yeare, Iewes three thousand and twentie three.Iste est populus quem transtulit Nabuchodonosor: in anno septimo, Judæos tria millia et viginti tres: 29In the eighteenth year of Nabuchodonosor, eight hundred and thirty-two souls from Jerusalem.L'anno decimo ottavo di Nabucodonosor, ottocento trentadue persone da Gerusalemme:In the eightenth yeare of Nabuchodonosor from Ierusalem soules eight hundred thirtie two.in anno octavodecimo Nabuchodonosor, de Jerusalem animas octingentas triginta duas: 30In the three and twentieth year of Nabuchodonosor, Nabuzardan the general carried away of the Jews seven hundred and forty-five souls.
