Jeremiah 41

1 Chuche kum, lha sagi lhin in, leng insungmi khat, Nethaniah chapa Ishmael, leng inpia jong vaihom pipu khat chu, pasal misomtoh Mizpah khoa Gedaliah toh kimuto ding in acheuvin ahi. Abonchauva an anehkhom laitah un,

Now it happened in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the royal family and one of the chief officers of the king, and ten men with him, came to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and there they ate bread together in Mizpah.

2 Ishmael leh alhonpi pasal misom hochun, chemjam asatdoh un, Babylon lengpan gamvaipoa apansah Gedaliah chu, athattauve.

Then arose Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and the ten men who were with him, and struck Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan with the sword, and killed him, whom the king of Babylon had made governor over the land.

3 Ishmael in Gedaliah toh umkhom Judah miho leh Babylon sepaite jouse, abonchauvin athatgam heltai.

Ishmael also killed all the Jews who were with him, with Gedaliah, at Mizpah, and the Chaldeans who were found there, the men of war.

4 Ajing nikhon, Gedaliah kitha thu, mi koimachan ahetdoh masang in,

It happened the second day after he had killed Gedaliah, and no man knew it,

5 Shechem khoa kon, Shiloh khoa chule Samaria khoa kon in, pasal somget hochu, Pakai Houin a, thilto bolding in ahungtauve. Amaho chun anemul akihet tol uvin, aponsil u abottel uvin, chule atahsa chungu aki-atpop un, Houin a toding Chang le gimnamtwi ahinchoi uvin ahi.

that there came men from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, even eighty men, having their beards shaved and their clothes torn, and having cut themselves, with meal offerings and frankincense in their hand, to bring them to the house of the LORD.

6 Hichun, amaho chutoh gakimuto dimg in, Ishmael in Mizpah akon in akipat doh in, kappum pum in achei. Amaho kom alhunphat in, aman ajah uva, “Hungun, Ahikam chapa Gedaliah khu, ipin alhunden hitam, Hung veuvin,” ati.

Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went forth from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went: and it happened, as he met them, he said to them, "Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam."

7 Amaho chu khopi sung ahunglut phat un, Ismael leh alhonpi ho chun, hiche miho chu, misom tilou adangse abonchauvin athatgam’un, twikul a alehlut tauvin ahi.

It was so, when they came into the midst of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah killed them, and cast them into the midst of the pit, he, and the men who were with him.

8 Adang misom hochun, Ismael jah’a, “Neithat hih un, keihon loujaova suhlou chang tampi, sakol chang tampi, Olive thao leh Khoiju tampi kasel uve, nangdin nahin choipeh nauving’e,” atiuvin ahi. Hijeh chun amaho chu ahinghoiyin ahi.

But ten men were found among those who said to Ishmael, "Do not kill us; for we have stores hidden in the field, of wheat, and of barley, and of oil, and of honey. So he stopped, and did not kill them among their brothers.

9 Ishmael in amitha ho alelutna twikul chu, Asa lengpan Israel lengpa Baasha douna-a, chule ama kivenne ding’a, Mizpah khoa kulpi asem laiya, anasemdoh twikul lentah ahi. Hiche twikul chu Ishmael in amitha ho adipsettan ahi.

Now the pit in which Ishmael cast all the dead bodies of the men whom he had killed was a large one that King Asa had constructed in the encounter with Baasha king of Israel. Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with those who were killed.

10 Hichun Ishmael in Mizpah khoa umden ho, lengpa Chanute ahiuvin chule midang akidalha amoh chengse ahiuvin, in-ngah lamkaipa Nebuzaradan vettup na noiya umjouse chu, abonchauvin aman in ahentai. Ismael in amaho chu, Ammon mite gamlang’a sohchang ding in akaiyin, akipatdoh tai.

Then Ishmael carried away captive all the residue of the people who were in Mizpah, even the king's daughters, and all the people who remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had committed to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam; Ishmael the son of Nethaniah carried them away captive, and departed to go over to the people of Ammon.

11 Kareah chapa Johanan leh aumpi gal lamkai danghon, Ishmael thilse bolchu ajadoh tauve.

But when Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, heard of all the evil that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had done,

12 Hijeh chun, amahon amiteu akipuiyun, Nethaniah chapa Ishmael sat ding in adel tauvin ahi. Amahon Ishmael chu Gebion mun’a twikul-len umna-a chun aphapan tauvin ahi.

then they took all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and found him by the great waters that are in Gibeon.

13 Hichun Ishmael in sohchanga akaiho chun, Johanan leh alhonpi gal lamkai ho amuphat un, akipah behseh un a eojah tauve.

Now it happened that, when all the people who were with Ishmael saw Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, then they were glad.

14 Sohchanga akaiho jouse chu, Johanan lang’a ahung lheilut soh keiyun, apangkhom tauvin ahi.

So all the people who Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah turned about and came back, and went to Johanan the son of Kareah.

15 Hichun Ishmael leh aloi mi get chu Johanan khut’a kon in ajamdoh man’un, Ammon gamsung’a ajamlut tauve.

But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the people of Ammon.

16 Chuin Kareah chapa Johanan leh alhonpi gal lamkai hochun, Ishmael in Gedaliah atha jouva sohchang’a akaimangho: Sepai ho, numei ho, chapangho, chule nu-kiso ho, Gibeon mun’a ahuhdoh chengseu chu abonchauvin apui tauve.

Then took Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, from Mizpah, after that he had killed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the men of war, and the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought back from Gibeon:

17 Amahon ami huhdoh chengseu chu, Bethlehem kom’a Geruth Kimham kho’a chun apuiyun, Egypt gam jonpai ding in akigouvin ahi.

and they departed, and lived in Geruth Kimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt,

18 Ajeh chu, Babylon miten Ahikam chapa Gedaliah, Babylon lengpan Judah gamvaipo a apansah pachu, Ishmael in athattai tithu ahin jahdoh ding chu, kicha ahiuve.

because of the Chaldeans; for they were afraid of them, because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had killed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon made governor over the land.
