I would replace the battery.

well 2 weeks of sitting would take most of it's toll on the battery.

that's likely your weakest link.

Now the car won't start when jumped. Does nothing at all.

Doesn't sound like the battery to me.

This is what I get from your description.
You hook up jumper cables to your battery. ( I assume from a good battery) Nothing happens.
The good battery should supply enough power to to run lights etc, if not start the car.
Since it doesn't, the first thing I would do is check and clean your battery cables. Make sure they are tight.
