Jeremia 39
Svenska Folkbibeln
Jerusalems fall
39 I Sidkias, Juda kungs, nionde regeringsår, i tionde månaden kom Babels kung Nebukadressar med hela sin här till Jerusalem och belägrade det. 2 I Sidkias elfte regeringsår, på nionde dagen i fjärde månaden[a], trängde de in i staden. 3 Då kom alla den babyloniske kungens furstar och slog sig ner i Mellersta porten, nämligen Nergal-Sareser, Samgar-Nebo, Sarsekim, överste hovmannen, Nergal-Sareser, överste magern,[b] och alla den babyloniske kungens övriga furstar.
4 När Sidkia, Juda kung, med allt sitt krigsfolk fick se dem, flydde de och drog om natten ut ur staden på vägen mot den kungliga trädgården, genom porten mellan de båda murarna. Han tog vägen bort mot Hedmarken. 5 Men kaldeernas här förföljde dem och hann upp Sidkia på Jerikos hedmarker. De tog honom och förde honom till Nebukadressar, kungen i Babel, i Ribla i Hamats land. Där avkunnade han domen över honom. 6 Den babyloniske kungen lät slakta Sidkias barn, i Ribla, inför hans ögon. Också alla förnäma män i Juda lät kungen i Babel slakta. 7 På Sidkia själv lät han sticka ut ögonen och lät binda honom med kopparkedjor för att föra honom till Babel.
8 Kaldeerna brände ner kungens hus och husen som tillhörde folket, och de rev ner Jerusalems murar. 9 Återstoden av folket som var kvar i staden, de överlöpare som hade gått över till honom och det övriga folket förde Nebusaradan, översten för drabanterna, bort till Babel. 10 Men Nebusaradan, översten för drabanterna, lämnade i Juda land kvar en del av de fattiga, de som ingenting ägde, och gav dem samtidigt vingårdar och åkerfält.
Jeremias frigivning
11 Nebukadressar, kungen i Babel, gav Nebusaradan, översten för drabanterna, denna befallning angående Jeremia: 12 "Tag hand om honom och låt ditt öga vaka över honom och gör honom inte något ont, utan behandla honom som han själv begär av dig." 13 Nebusaradan, översten för drabanterna, och Nebusasban, överste hovmannen, och Nergal-Sareser, överste magern, och alla den babyloniske kungens övriga stormän 14 sände då bud och hämtade Jeremia från vaktgården och lämnade honom åt Gedalja, son till Ahikam, son till Safan, för att denne skulle föra honom hem, och han fick bo bland folket.
Herrens löfte till Ebed-Melek
15 Herrens ord kom till Jeremia, medan han var inspärrad på vaktgården. Han sade: 16 "Gå och säg till nubiern Ebed-Melek: Så säger Herren Sebaot, Israels Gud: Se, det jag har talat skall jag låta komma över denna stad till dess olycka och inte till dess lycka, och det skall ske inför dina ögon på den dagen. 17 Men dig skall jag rädda på den dagen, säger Herren, och du skall inte utlämnas till de män du fruktar för. 18 Ty jag skall låta dig komma undan så att du inte faller för svärd utan vinner ditt liv som ett byte, därför att du har förtröstat på mig, säger Herren."

Jeremiah 39
New International Version
39 1 In the ninth year of Zedekiah(A) king of Judah, in the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar(B) king of Babylon marched against Jerusalem with his whole army and laid siege(C) to it. 2 And on the ninth day of the fourth(D) month of Zedekiah’s eleventh year, the city wall(E) was broken through.(F) 3 Then all the officials(G) of the king of Babylon came and took seats in the Middle Gate: Nergal-Sharezer of Samgar, Nebo-Sarsekim a chief officer, Nergal-Sharezer a high official and all the other officials of the king of Babylon. 4 When Zedekiah king of Judah and all the soldiers saw them, they fled; they left the city at night by way of the king’s garden, through the gate between the two walls,(H) and headed toward the Arabah.[a](I)
5 But the Babylonian[b] army pursued them and overtook Zedekiah(J) in the plains of Jericho. They captured(K) him and took him to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon at Riblah(L) in the land of Hamath, where he pronounced sentence on him. 6 There at Riblah the king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes and also killed all the nobles(M) of Judah. 7 Then he put out Zedekiah’s eyes(N) and bound him with bronze shackles to take him to Babylon.(O)
8 The Babylonians[c] set fire(P) to the royal palace and the houses of the people and broke down the walls(Q) of Jerusalem. 9 Nebuzaradan commander of the imperial guard carried into exile to Babylon the people who remained in the city, along with those who had gone over to him,(R) and the rest of the people.(S) 10 But Nebuzaradan the commander of the guard left behind in the land of Judah some of the poor people, who owned nothing; and at that time he gave them vineyards and fields.
11 Now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had given these orders about Jeremiah through Nebuzaradan commander of the imperial guard: 12 “Take him and look after him; don’t harm(T) him but do for him whatever he asks.” 13 So Nebuzaradan the commander of the guard, Nebushazban a chief officer, Nergal-Sharezer a high official and all the other officers(U) of the king of Babylon 14 sent and had Jeremiah taken out of the courtyard of the guard.(V) They turned him over to Gedaliah(W) son of Ahikam,(X) the son of Shaphan,(Y) to take him back to his home. So he remained among his own people.(Z)
15 While Jeremiah had been confined in the courtyard of the guard, the word of the Lord came to him: 16 “Go and tell Ebed-Melek(AA) the Cushite, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: I am about to fulfill my words(AB) against this city—words concerning disaster,(AC) not prosperity. At that time they will be fulfilled before your eyes. 17 But I will rescue(AD) you on that day, declares the Lord; you will not be given into the hands of those you fear. 18 I will save(AE) you; you will not fall by the sword(AF) but will escape with your life,(AG) because you trust(AH) in me, declares the Lord.’”

New King James Version
The Fall of Jerusalem(A)
39 In the (B)ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and all his army came against Jerusalem, and besieged it. 2 In the (C)eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, on the ninth day of the month, the [a]city was penetrated.
3 (D)Then all the princes of the king of Babylon came in and sat in the Middle Gate: Nergal-Sharezer, Samgar-Nebo, Sarsechim, [b]Rabsaris, Nergal-Sarezer, [c]Rabmag, with the rest of the princes of the king of Babylon.
4 (E)So it was, when Zedekiah the king of Judah and all the men of war saw them, that they fled and went out of the city by night, by way of the king’s garden, by the gate between the two walls. And he went out by way of the [d]plain. 5 But the Chaldean army pursued them and (F)overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho. And when they had captured him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, to (G)Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he pronounced judgment on him. 6 Then the king of Babylon killed the sons of Zedekiah before his (H)eyes in Riblah; the king of Babylon also killed all the (I)nobles of Judah. 7 Moreover (J)he put out Zedekiah’s eyes, and bound him with bronze [e]fetters to carry him off to Babylon. 8 (K)And the Chaldeans burned the king’s house and the houses of the people with (L)fire, and broke down the (M)walls of Jerusalem. 9 (N)Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive to Babylon the remnant of the people who remained in the city and those who (O)defected to him, with the rest of the people who remained. 10 But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left in the land of Judah the (P)poor people, who had nothing, and gave them vineyards and fields [f]at the same time.
Jeremiah Goes Free
11 Now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon gave charge concerning Jeremiah to Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, saying, 12 “Take him and look after him, and do him no (Q)harm; but do to him just as he says to you.” 13 So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard sent Nebushasban, Rabsaris, Nergal-Sharezer, Rabmag, and all the king of Babylon’s chief officers; 14 then they sent someone (R)to take Jeremiah from the court of the prison, and committed him (S)to Gedaliah the son of (T)Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, that he should take him home. So he dwelt among the people.
15 Meanwhile the word of the Lord had come to Jeremiah while he was shut up in the court of the prison, saying, 16 “Go and speak to (U)Ebed-Melech the Ethiopian, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: “Behold, (V)I will bring My words upon this city for adversity and not for good, and they shall be performed in that day before you. 17 But I will deliver you in that day,” says the Lord, “and you shall not be given into the hand of the men of whom you are afraid. 18 For I will surely deliver you, and you shall not fall by the sword; but (W)your life shall be as a prize to you, (X)because you have put your trust in Me,” says the Lord.’ ”

Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
耶路撒冷淪陷
39 猶大王西底迦執政第九年十月,巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒率領全軍包圍耶路撒冷。 2 西底迦執政第十一年四月九日,耶路撒冷淪陷。 3 尼甲·沙利薛、三甲·尼波、撒西金和另一個尼甲·沙利薛等巴比倫王的所有將領都進城坐在中門。 4 猶大王西底迦和所有軍兵見勢不妙,便在夜間穿過御花園,從兩城牆中間的門逃往亞拉巴。 5 但迦勒底的軍隊追上來,在耶利哥的平原擒住西底迦,把他帶到哈馬的利比拉去見巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒,接受審判。 6 巴比倫王在利比拉當著西底迦的面殺了他的眾子和猶大所有的貴族, 7 並且挖去他的雙眼,把他用銅鏈鎖著帶到巴比倫。 8 迦勒底人放火焚燒王宮和民居,拆毀耶路撒冷的城牆。 9 護衛長尼布撒拉旦把城中的餘民以及投降的人都擄到巴比倫, 10 卻讓那些一貧如洗的窮人留在猶大,將葡萄園和田地分給他們。
耶利米獲釋
11 至於耶利米,巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒吩咐護衛長尼布撒拉旦: 12 「你好好照顧耶利米,切不可傷害他。他有什麼要求,你都要滿足。」 13 於是,護衛長尼布撒拉旦、尼布沙斯班、尼甲·沙利薛等巴比倫王的所有將領, 14 便派人把耶利米從護衛兵的院子提出來,讓沙番的孫子、亞希甘的兒子基大利帶他回家。從此,耶利米就生活在百姓當中。
15 耶利米被監禁在護衛兵院子裡的時候,耶和華對他說: 16 「你去告訴古實人以伯·米勒,以色列的上帝——萬軍之耶和華說,『看啊,我必照我說的使這城遭受災禍,得不到祝福。你必親眼看見這一切發生。』 17 耶和華說,『但那時,我必拯救你,使你不致落在你所懼怕的人手中。 18 我必拯救你,使你保全性命,不致喪身刀下,因為你信靠我。這是耶和華說的。』」
Jeremiah 39
King James Version
39 In the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, came Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon and all his army against Jerusalem, and they besieged it.
2 And in the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, the city was broken up.
3 And all the princes of the king of Babylon came in, and sat in the middle gate, even Nergalsharezer, Samgarnebo, Sarsechim, Rabsaris, Nergalsharezer, Rabmag, with all the residue of the princes of the king of Babylon.
4 And it came to pass, that when Zedekiah the king of Judah saw them, and all the men of war, then they fled, and went forth out of the city by night, by the way of the king's garden, by the gate betwixt the two walls: and he went out the way of the plain.
5 But the Chaldeans' army pursued after them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho: and when they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he gave judgment upon him.
6 Then the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah in Riblah before his eyes: also the king of Babylon slew all the nobles of Judah.
7 Moreover he put out Zedekiah's eyes, and bound him with chains, to carry him to Babylon.
8 And the Chaldeans burned the king's house, and the houses of the people, with fire, and brake down the walls of Jerusalem.
9 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive into Babylon the remnant of the people that remained in the city, and those that fell away, that fell to him, with the rest of the people that remained.
10 But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poor of the people, which had nothing, in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.
11 Now Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon gave charge concerning Jeremiah to Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, saying,
12 Take him, and look well to him, and do him no harm; but do unto him even as he shall say unto thee.
13 So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard sent, and Nebushasban, Rabsaris, and Nergalsharezer, Rabmag, and all the king of Babylon's princes;
14 Even they sent, and took Jeremiah out of the court of the prison, and committed him unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, that he should carry him home: so he dwelt among the people.
15 Now the word of the Lord came unto Jeremiah, while he was shut up in the court of the prison, saying,
16 Go and speak to Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying, Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring my words upon this city for evil, and not for good; and they shall be accomplished in that day before thee.
17 But I will deliver thee in that day, saith the Lord: and thou shalt not be given into the hand of the men of whom thou art afraid.
18 For I will surely deliver thee, and thou shalt not fall by the sword, but thy life shall be for a prey unto thee: because thou hast put thy trust in me, saith the Lord.
