WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Durante el reinado de Joacim, Nabucodonosor, rey de Babilonia, invadió Judá. Joacim se sometió a él durante tres años, pero luego se rebeló.
1 In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant for three years. Then he turned and rebelled against him.
2 El Señor envió contra Joacim bandas de caldeos, sirios, moabitas y amonitas. Las envió contra Judá para destruirlo, conforme a lo que había anunciado por medio de sus servidores los profetas.
2 Yahweh sent against him bands of the Chaldeans, bands of the Syrians, bands of the Moabites, and bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to Yahweh’s word which he spoke by his servants the prophets.
3 Esto le sucedió a Judá por orden del Señor, que lo apartó de su presencia por los pecados de Manasés y por todo el mal que había hecho.
3 Surely at the commandment of Yahweh this came on Judah, to remove them out of his sight for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did,
4 Manasés había llenado Jerusalén de sangre inocente, y el Señor no quiso perdonar aquello.
4 and also for the innocent blood that he shed; for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, and Yahweh would not pardon.
5 Los demás hechos de Joacim y todo lo que hizo están escritos en el libro de las crónicas de los reyes de Judá.
5 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and all that he did, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
6 Joacim murió, y su hijo Joaquín ocupó su lugar como rey.
6 So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers, and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his place.
7 El rey de Egipto no volvió a salir de su país, porque el rey de Babilonia había conquistado todos los territorios que Egipto dominaba, desde el arroyo de Egipto hasta el río Éufrates.
7 The king of Egypt didn’t come out of his land any more; for the king of Babylon had taken, from the brook of Egypt to the river Euphrates, all that belonged to the king of Egypt.
8 Joaquín tenía dieciocho años cuando comenzó a reinar, y reinó tres meses en Jerusalén. Su madre se llamaba Nehusta y era hija de Elnatán de Jerusalén.
8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. His mother’s name was Nehushta the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
9 Hizo lo malo ante los ojos del Señor, como su padre.
9 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, according to all that his father had done.
10 Por entonces las tropas de Nabucodonosor, rey de Babilonia, llegaron a Jerusalén y la sitiaron.
10 At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up to Jerusalem, and the city was besieged.
11 El propio Nabucodonosor llegó mientras sus tropas mantenían el sitio.
11 Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to the city while his servants were besieging it,
12 Entonces Joaquín, rey de Judá, salió y se rindió al rey de Babilonia, junto con su madre, sus servidores, sus jefes y sus funcionarios. El rey de Babilonia lo capturó en el octavo año de su reinado.
12 and Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon—he, his mother, his servants, his princes, and his officers; and the king of Babylon captured him in the eighth year of his reign.
13 Nabucodonosor se llevó todos los tesoros del templo del Señor y del palacio. También hizo pedazos los utensilios de oro que Salomón, rey de Israel, había hecho para el templo, como el Señor había anunciado.
13 He carried out from there all the treasures of Yahweh’s house and the treasures of the king’s house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel had made in Yahweh’s temple, as Yahweh had said.
14 Deportó a los habitantes de Jerusalén, entre ellos a todos los jefes y hombres de guerra, a los artesanos y a los herreros: diez mil cautivos en total. Solo dejó en el país a los más pobres.
14 He carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valor, even ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and the smiths. No one remained except the poorest people of the land.
15 Llevó cautivo a Babilonia a Joaquín, junto con su madre, sus esposas, sus funcionarios y los hombres importantes del país. A todos los sacó de Jerusalén.
15 He carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon, with the king’s mother, the king’s wives, his officers, and the chief men of the land. He carried them into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon.
16 También deportó a siete mil soldados y a mil artesanos y herreros, hombres fuertes y aptos para la guerra.
16 All the men of might, even seven thousand, and the craftsmen and the smiths one thousand, all of them strong and fit for war, even them the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon.
17 El rey de Babilonia nombró rey en lugar de Joaquín a Matanías, tío de Joaquín, y le cambió el nombre a Sedequías.
17 The king of Babylon made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin’s father’s brother, king in his place, and changed his name to Zedekiah.
18 Sedequías tenía veintiún años cuando comenzó a reinar, y reinó once años en Jerusalén. Su madre se llamaba Hamutal y era hija de Jeremías de Libna.
18 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
19 Hizo lo malo ante los ojos del Señor, como Joacim.
19 He did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
20 La ira del Señor contra Jerusalén y Judá llegó al punto de apartarlos de su presencia. Entonces Sedequías se rebeló contra el rey de Babilonia.
20 For through the anger of Yahweh, this happened in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence. Then Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
