エルサレムの陥落
39 ユダ王国のゼデキヤ王の第九年の十二月末、ネブカデネザルの率いる軍隊は再びエルサレムを攻撃し、町を包囲しました。 2 それから二年後の六月末、ついに彼らは城壁を破り、町を占領しました。 3 バビロン軍の将校はみな入城して中央の門に座り、戦勝祝賀会を開きました。そこにいたのは、ネルガル・サル・エツェル、サムガル・ネブ、サル・セキム、指揮官のネルガル・サル・エツェル、そのほか大ぜいでした。 4 ゼデキヤ王とその護衛兵たちは、町が落ちたのを見て、夜の間に抜け出し、王宮の庭のうしろにある二重の城壁の間にある門を通り、ヨルダンの渓谷に向かって野原を横切ろうとしました。 5 ところがバビロニヤ人は王を追いかけてエリコの草原で捕まえ、ハマテの地リブラにいたネブカデネザルのところへ引き立てました。バビロン王はゼデキヤに宣告を下しました。 6 バビロン王はゼデキヤの目の前で、彼の子どもと、ユダの貴族全員を殺しました。 7 そのあとでゼデキヤの両眼をえぐり出し、鎖につないで、奴隷としてバビロンへ引いて行ったのです。 8 一方、エルサレムの町は王宮もろとも焼き払われ、城壁は無残な姿をさらすばかりでした。 9 親衛隊長ネブザルアダンとその部下は、町に残っている住民と、投降した者をバビロンへ連れて行きました。 10 しかし、すごく貧しいわずかの人たちはそのままユダの各地に残しておき、畑とぶどう園を与えました。 11-12 一方、ネブカデネザル王はネブザルアダンに、エレミヤを捜し出すよう命じました。「あの男が無事かどうか見て来い。十分面倒を見てやり、欲しい物は何でも与えるのだ。」 13 そこで、親衛隊長ネブザルアダン、宦官の長ネブシャズ・バン、指揮官ネルガル・サル・エツェル、そのほかの将校たちは、王の命令を実行に移す相談をしました。 14 まず兵士たちを送ってエレミヤを牢から連れ出し、シャファンの子アヒカムの子ゲダルヤに預け、無事に家へ帰らせることにしました。こうしてエレミヤは、国に残っている人々と共に、故国で暮らすことになったのです。 15 バビロン軍が来る前、エレミヤがまだ牢に閉じ込められていた時、主から次のことばがありました。 16 「エチオピヤ人エベデ・メレクに、こう伝えよ。イスラエルの神である天の軍勢の主は言う。わたしはこの民に、予告した災いをすべて下す。この町をおまえの見ている前で滅ぼすが、 17 おまえは救い出す。おまえがひどく恐れている者の手にかかって殺されるようなことはないから、安心するがいい。 18 わたしに信頼した報いとして、おまえのいのちを助け、危害を受けないように守るから。」

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.’”

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.
