西底家王叛
25 西底家背叛巴比倫王。他做王第九年十月初十日，巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒率領全軍來攻擊耶路撒冷，對城安營，四圍築壘攻城。 2 於是城被圍困，直到西底家王十一年。
耶路撒冷陷
3 四月初九日，城裡有大饑荒，甚至百姓都沒有糧食。 4 城被攻破，一切兵丁就在夜間從靠近王園兩城中間的門逃跑。迦勒底人正在四圍攻城，王就向亞拉巴逃走。 5 迦勒底的軍隊追趕王，在耶利哥的平原追上他；他的全軍都離開他四散了。 6 迦勒底人就拿住王，帶他到利比拉巴比倫王那裡審判他。 7 在西底家眼前殺了他的眾子，並且剜了西底家的眼睛，用銅鏈鎖著他，帶到巴比倫去。
8 巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒十九年五月初七日，巴比倫王的臣僕護衛長尼布撒拉旦來到耶路撒冷， 9 用火焚燒耶和華的殿和王宮，又焚燒耶路撒冷的房屋，就是各大戶家的房屋。 10 跟從護衛長迦勒底的全軍就拆毀耶路撒冷四圍的城牆。 11 那時護衛長尼布撒拉旦將城裡所剩下的百姓，並已經投降巴比倫王的人，以及大眾所剩下的人，都擄去了。 12 但護衛長留下些民中最窮的，使他們修理葡萄園，耕種田地。
聖殿被掠
13 耶和華殿的銅柱並耶和華殿的盆座和銅海，迦勒底人都打碎了，將那銅運到巴比倫去了。 14 又帶去鍋、鏟子、蠟剪、調羹，並所用的一切銅器。 15 火鼎、碗，無論金的銀的，護衛長也都帶去了。 16 所羅門為耶和華殿所造的兩根銅柱、一個銅海和幾個盆座，這一切的銅，多得無法可稱。 17 這一根柱子高十八肘，柱上有銅頂，高三肘，銅頂的周圍有網子和石榴，都是銅的。那一根柱子照此一樣，也有網子。
18 護衛長拿住大祭司西萊雅、副祭司西番亞和三個把門的， 19 又從城中拿住一個管理兵丁的官[a]，並在城裡所遇常見王面的五個人和檢點國民軍長的書記，以及城裡遇見的國民六十個人。 20 護衛長尼布撒拉旦將這些人帶到利比拉巴比倫王那裡。 21 巴比倫王就把他們擊殺在哈馬地的利比拉。這樣，猶大人被擄去離開本地。
立基大利做省長
22 至於猶大國剩下的民，就是巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒所剩下的，巴比倫王立了沙番的孫子、亞希甘的兒子基大利做他們的省長。 23 眾軍長和屬他們的人聽見巴比倫王立了基大利做省長，於是軍長尼探雅的兒子以實瑪利、加利亞的兒子約哈難、尼陀法人單戶篾的兒子西萊雅、瑪迦人的兒子雅撒尼亞，和屬他們的人，都到米斯巴見基大利。 24 基大利向他們和屬他們的人起誓說：「你們不必懼怕迦勒底臣僕，只管住在這地服侍巴比倫王，就可以得福。」
以實瑪利殺基大利
25 七月間，宗室以利沙瑪的孫子、尼探雅的兒子以實瑪利帶著十個人來，殺了基大利和同他在米斯巴的猶大人與迦勒底人。 26 於是眾民無論大小，連眾軍長，因為懼怕迦勒底人，都起身往埃及去了。
巴比倫王厚待約雅斤
27 猶大王約雅斤被擄後三十七年，巴比倫王以未米羅達元年十二月二十七日，使猶大王約雅斤抬頭，提他出監， 28 又對他說恩言，使他的位高過與他一同在巴比倫眾王的位， 29 給他脫了囚服。他終身常在巴比倫王面前吃飯。 30 王賜他所需用的食物，日日賜他一份，終身都是這樣。

列王纪下 25
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
25 西底迦执政第九年十月十日，巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒率领全军攻打耶路撒冷，在城外安营，修筑围城的高台。 2 城一直被围困到西底迦执政第十一年。 3 那年四月九日，城里饥荒非常严重，百姓无粮可吃。 4 城被攻破，城里的所有士兵便在夜间穿过御花园，从两城墙中间的门逃往亚拉巴。当时迦勒底人仍四面包围着城。 5 迦勒底军队追赶西底迦，在耶利哥平原追上了他，他的军队都四散而逃。 6 迦勒底人擒住西底迦，把他押到利比拉见巴比伦王，在那里审判他。 7 巴比伦王在西底迦面前杀了他的众子，又剜去他的双眼，把他用铜链锁着押往巴比伦。
圣殿被毁
8 巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒执政第十九年五月七日，他的臣仆——护卫长尼布撒拉旦来到耶路撒冷， 9 放火焚烧耶和华的殿、王宫及城内所有的房屋。他烧毁了所有重要建筑。 10 他率领的迦勒底军队拆毁了耶路撒冷四围的城墙。 11 护卫长尼布撒拉旦掳去城里剩下的百姓、投降巴比伦王的人以及其他人， 12 只留下一些最贫穷的人，让他们照料葡萄园、耕种田地。
13 迦勒底人打碎耶和华殿中的铜柱、盆座和铜海，把铜运往巴比伦， 14 并带走了盆、铲、蜡剪、碟子及一切献祭用的铜器。 15 护卫长还带走了火鼎、碗等一切金银器具。
16 所罗门为耶和华的殿所造的两根铜柱、一个铜海和一些盆座，用的铜多得无法计算。 17 铜柱高八米，柱顶有柱冠，高一点三五米。柱冠周围装饰着铜网和铜石榴。两根柱子都一样。
18 护卫长尼布撒拉旦掳走祭司长西莱雅、副祭司长西番亚和三名殿门守卫， 19 还从城中拿住一名统管士兵的将领、王的五个亲信、一名负责招兵的书记和六十名平民。 20 护卫长尼布撒拉旦把他们带到利比拉去见巴比伦王， 21 巴比伦王在那里处死了他们。犹大人就这样被掳去，离开了家园。
基大利做犹大省长
22 巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒任命基大利治理犹大的余民。基大利是沙番的孙子、亚希甘的儿子。 23 犹大众将领和他们的下属听到巴比伦王委任基大利治理犹大的消息后，便都到米斯巴见基大利。他们是尼探雅的儿子以实玛利、加利亚的儿子约哈难、尼陀法人单户篾的儿子西莱雅、玛迦人雅撒尼亚。 24 基大利向他们和他们的下属发誓，说：“你们不用害怕那些迦勒底官员。你们住在这地方服侍巴比伦王，就会平安无事。” 25 七月，王室后裔以利沙玛的孙子、尼探雅的儿子以实玛利带着十个人在米斯巴刺杀了基大利以及跟他一起的犹大人和迦勒底人。 26 因为害怕迦勒底人报复，犹大众人不论贵贱，都和众将领一起逃往埃及。
约雅斤获释
27 巴比伦王以未·米罗达在他执政的元年十二月二十七日，即犹大王约雅斤被掳后第三十七年，施恩释放了约雅斤， 28 并好言相待，使他的地位高过被掳到巴比伦的其他各王。 29 约雅斤脱去了囚衣，终生与巴比伦王一起吃饭。 30 在他有生之年，巴比伦王供应他每天的需用。
2 Kings 25
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
25 And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, the tenth day of the month, that Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came, he and all his army against Jerusalem: and they surrounded it: and raised works round about it.
2 And the city was shut up and besieged till the eleventh year of king Sedecias,
3 The ninth day of the month: and a famine prevailed in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the land.
4 And a breach was made into the city: and all the men of war fled in the night between the two walls by the king's garden, (now the Chaldees besieged the city round about,) and Sedecias fled by the way that leadeth to the plains of the wilderness.
5 And the army of the Chaldees pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all the warriors that were with him were scattered, and left him:
6 So they took the king, and brought him to the king of Babylon to Reblatha, and he gave judgment upon him.
7 And he slew the sons of Sedecias before his face, and he put out his eyes, and bound him with chains, and brought him to Babylon.
8 In the fifth month, the seventh day of the month, that is, the nineteenth year of the king of Babylon, came Nabuzardan commander of the army, a servant of the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem.
9 And he burnt the house of the Lord, and the king's house, and the houses of Jerusalem, and every house he burnt with fire.
10 And all the army of the Chaldees, which was with the commander of the troops, broke down the walls of Jerusalem round about.
11 And Nabuzardan the commander of the army, carried away the rest of the people that remained in the city, and the fugitives that had gone over to the king of Babylon, and the remnant of the common people.
12 But of the poor of the land he left some dressers of vines and husbandmen.
13 And the pillars of brass that were in the temple of the Lord, and the bases, and the sea of brass which was in the house of the Lord, the Chaldees broke in pieces, and carried all the brass of them to Babylon.
14 They took away also the pots of brass, and the mazers, and the forks, and the cups, and the mortars, and all the vessels of brass with which they ministered.
15 Moreover also the censers, and the bowls, such as were of gold in gold, and such as were of silver in silver, the general of the army took away.
16 That is, two pillars, one sea, and the bases which Solomon had made in the temple of the Lord: the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
17 One pillar was eighteen cubits high, and the chapiter of brass which was upon it was three cubits high: and the network, and the pomegranates that were upon the chapiter of the pillar, were all of brass: and the second pillar had the like adorning.
18 And the general of the army took Seraias the chief priest, and Sophonias the second priest, and three doorkeepers.
19 And out of the city one eunuch, who was captain over the men of war: and five men of them that had stood before the king, whom he found in the city, and Sopher the captain of the army who exercised the young soldiers of the people of the land: and threescore men of the common people, who were found in the city.
20 These Nabuzardan the general of the army took away, and carried them to the king of Babylon to Reblatha.
21 And the king of Babylon smote them, and slew them at Reblatha in the land of Emath: so Juda was carried away out of their land.
22 But over the people that remained in the land of Juda, which Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon had left, he gave the government to Godolias the son of Ahicam the son of Saphan.
23 And when all the captains of the soldiers had heard this, they and the men that were with them, to wit, that the king of Babylon had made Godolias governor, they came to Godolias to Maspha, Ismael the son of Nathanias, and Johanan the son of Caree, and Saraia the son of Thanehumeth the Netophathite, and Jezonias the son of Maachathi, they and their men.
24 And Godolias swore to them and to their men, saying: Be not afraid to serve the Chaldees: stay in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.
25 But it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ismael the son of Nathanias, the son of Elisama of the seed royal came, and ten men with him: and smote Godolias so that he died: and also the Jews and the Chaldees that were with him in Maspha.
26 And all the people both little and great, and the captains of the soldiers, rising up went to Egypt, fearing the Chaldees.
27 And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Joachin king of Juda, in the twelfth month the seven and twentieth day of the month: Evilmerodach king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, lifted up the head of Joachin king of Juda out of prison.
28 And he spoke kindly to him: and he set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon.
29 And he changed his garments which he had in prison, and he ate bread always before him, all the days of his life.
30 And he appointed him a continual allowance, which was also given him by the king day by day, all the days of his life.
2 Kings 25
King James Version
25 And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he, and all his host, against Jerusalem, and pitched against it; and they built forts against it round about.
2 And the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
3 And on the ninth day of the fourth month the famine prevailed in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the land.
4 And the city was broken up, and all the men of war fled by night by the way of the gate between two walls, which is by the king's garden: (now the Chaldees were against the city round about:) and the king went the way toward the plain.
5 And the army of the Chaldees pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all his army were scattered from him.
6 So they took the king, and brought him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah; and they gave judgment upon him.
7 And they slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him with fetters of brass, and carried him to Babylon.
8 And in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which is the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, unto Jerusalem:
9 And he burnt the house of the Lord, and the king's house, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and every great man's house burnt he with fire.
10 And all the army of the Chaldees, that were with the captain of the guard, brake down the walls of Jerusalem round about.
11 Now the rest of the people that were left in the city, and the fugitives that fell away to the king of Babylon, with the remnant of the multitude, did Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carry away.
12 But the captain of the guard left of the poor of the land to be vinedressers and husbandmen.
13 And 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, did the Chaldees break in pieces, and carried the brass of them to Babylon.
14 And the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass wherewith they ministered, took they away.
15 And the firepans, and the bowls, and such things as were of gold, in gold, and of silver, in silver, the captain of the guard took away.
16 The two pillars, one sea, and the bases which Solomon had made for the house of the Lord; the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
17 The height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits, and the chapiter upon it was brass: and the height of the chapiter three cubits; and the wreathen work, and pomegranates upon the chapiter round about, all of brass: and like unto these had the second pillar with wreathen work.
18 And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the door:
19 And out of the city he took an officer that was set over the men of war, and five men of them that were in the king's presence, which were found in the city, and the principal scribe of the host, which mustered the people of the land, and threescore men of the people of the land that were found in the city:
20 And Nebuzaradan captain of the guard took these, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah:
21 And the king of Babylon smote them, and slew them at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away out of their land.
22 And as for the people that remained in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had left, even over them he made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, ruler.
23 And when all the captains of the armies, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah governor, there came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan the son of Careah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of a Maachathite, they and their men.
24 And Gedaliah sware to them, and to their men, and said unto them, Fear not to be the servants of the Chaldees: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon; and it shall be well with you.
25 But it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the seed royal, came, and ten men with him, and smote Gedaliah, that he died, and the Jews and the Chaldees that were with him at Mizpah.
26 And all the people, both small and great, and the captains of the armies, arose, and came to Egypt: for they were afraid of the Chaldees.
27 And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, that Evilmerodach king of Babylon in the year that he began to reign did lift up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;
28 And he spake kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon;
29 And changed his prison garments: and he did eat bread continually before him all the days of his life.
30 And his allowance was a continual allowance given him of the king, a daily rate for every day, all the days of his life.
