Jeremiah 41
1 In the seventh month, Ishmael son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, who was a member of the royal family and one of the king’s chief officers, came with ten men to Gedaliah son of Ahikam at Mizpah, and they ate a meal together there.
Na i te whitu o nga marama ka haere mai a Ihimaera tama a Netania, tama a Erihama, he uri kingi, ko ia tetahi o nga tino rangatira a te kingi, me ona hoa kotahi tekau, ki a Keraria tama a Ahikama, ki Mihipa; na kei te kai taro ratou tahi ki reira, ki Mihipa.
2 Then Ishmael son of Nethaniah and the ten men who were with him got up and struck down Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, with the sword, killing the one whom the king of Babylon had appointed to govern the land.
Katahi ka whakatika ake a Ihimaera tama a Netania, ratou ko ona hoa kotahi tekau, a patua ana a Keraria tama a Ahikama, tama a Hapana ki te hoari, mate rawa, a ia i meinga nei e te kingi o Papurona hei kawana mo te whenua.
3 Ishmael also killed all the Jews who were with Gedaliah at Mizpah, as well as the Chaldean soldiers who were there.
Na i patua ano e Ihimaera nga Hurai katoa i a ia, i a Keraria, i Mihipa, ratou ko nga Karari i kitea ki reira, ara nga tangata whawhai.
4 On the second day after the murder of Gedaliah, when no one yet knew about it,
Na i te rua o nga ra i muri i tana whakamatenga i a Keraria, a kihai i mohiotia e tetahi tangata,
5 eighty men who had shaved off their beards, torn their garments, and cut themselves came from Shechem, Shiloh, and Samaria, carrying grain offerings and frankincense for the house of the LORD.
Ka haere mai etahi tangata i Hekeme, i Hiro, i Hamaria, e waru tekau nga tangata, heu rawa o ratou pahau, haehae rawa nga kakahu, he mea haehae ano hoki ratou, me nga whakahere, me te whakakakara ano i o ratou ringa hei tapaenga ki te whare o Iho wa.
6 And Ishmael son of Nethaniah went out from Mizpah to meet them, weeping as he went. When Ishmael encountered the men, he said, “Come to Gedaliah son of Ahikam.”
Na ka haere atu a Ihimaera tama a Netania i roto i Mihipa ki te whakatau i a ratou, me te tangi haere ano i a ia e haere ana: a, i tona tutakitanga ki a ratou, ka mea ia ki a ratou, Haere mai ki a Keraria tama a Ahikama.
7 And when they came into the city, Ishmael son of Nethaniah and the men with him slaughtered them and threw them into a cistern.
Heoi, i to ratou taenga ki roto ki te pa, ka patua ratou e Ihimaera tama a Netania, a maka ana e ratou ko ona hoa ki roto ki te poka.
8 But ten of the men among them said to Ishmael, “Do not kill us, for we have hidden treasure in the field—wheat, barley, oil, and honey!” So he refrained from killing them with the others.
Otiia tera ano etahi kotahi tekau i kitea i roto i a ratou, i ki atu ki a Ihimaera, Kaua matou e whakamatea; he taonga hoki a matou kei te parae, he witi, he parei, he hinu, he honi, kei te huna. Na ka mutu tana, a kihai ratou i whakamatea e ia i roto i o ratou teina.
9 Now the cistern into which Ishmael had thrown all the bodies of the men he had struck down along with Gedaliah was a large one that King Asa had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel. Ishmael son of Nethaniah filled it with the slain.
Na, ko te poka i maka ai e Ihimaera nga tinana katoa o nga tangata i patua nei e ia ki te taha o Keraria, ko tera i hanga e Kingi Aha i te wehi ki a Paaha, kingi o Iharaira, whakakiia ana taua poka e Ihimaera tama a Netania ki te hunga i patua.
10 Then Ishmael took captive all the remnant of the people of Mizpah—the daughters of the king along with all the others who remained in Mizpah—over whom Nebuzaradan captain of the guard had appointed Gedaliah son of Ahikam. Ishmael son of Nethaniah took them captive and set off to cross over to the Ammonites.
Katahi ka whakaraua e Ihimaera nga morehu katoa o te iwi i Mihipa, nga tamahine a te kingi, me nga morehu katoa i Mihipa, ko te hunga i meinga nei e Neputaarana rangatira o nga kaitiaki, a Keraria tama a Ahikama hei kawana mo ratou; whakaraua an a ratou e Ihimaera tama a Netania, a haere ana ia, whiti ana ki nga tama a Amona.
11 When Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the armies with him heard of all the crimes that Ishmael son of Nethaniah had committed,
I te rongonga ia o Hohanana tama a Karea, ratou ko nga rangatira katoa o nga ope i a ia, ki te kino katoa i mahia e Ihimaera tama a Netania,
12 they took all their men and went to fight Ishmael son of Nethaniah. And they found him near the great pool in Gibeon.
Katahi ka tango ratou i nga tangata katoa, a haere ana ki te whawhai ki a Ihimaera tama a Netania, a rokohanga atu ia i te taha o nga wai nunui i Kipeono.
13 When all the people with Ishmael saw Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the army with him, they rejoiced,
A, no te kitenga o te hunga katoa i a Ihimaera i a Hohanana tama a Karea, i ona hoa hoki, i nga rangatira katoa o nga ope, na ka koa ratou.
14 and all the people whom Ishmael had taken captive at Mizpah turned and went over to Johanan son of Kareah.
Ko te tino tahuritanga o te hunga katoa i whakaraua e Ihimaera i Mihipa, hoki ana, haere ana ki a Hohanana tama a Karea.
15 But Ishmael son of Nethaniah and eight of his men escaped from Johanan and went to the Ammonites.
Engari ko Ihimaera tama a Netania i mawhiti atu i a Hohanana, ratou ko nga tangata tokowaru, a haere ana ki nga tama a Amona.
16 Then Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the armies with him took the whole remnant of the people from Mizpah whom he had recovered from Ishmael son of Nethaniah after Ishmael had killed Gedaliah son of Ahikam: the soldiers, women, children, and court officials he had brought back from Gibeon.
Katahi ka mau a Hohanana tama a Karea, ratou ko ona hoa, ko nga rangatira katoa o nga ope, i nga morehu katoa o te iwi, i era o Mihipa i whakahokia mai e ia i a Ihimaera tama a Netania, i muri i tana patunga i a Keraria tama a Ahikama, ara nga t angata whawhai, nga wahine, nga tamariki, nga unaka hoki i whakahokia mai e ia i Kipeono;
17 And they went and stayed in Geruth Chimham, near Bethlehem, in order to proceed into Egypt
A haere ana, noho ana i Kerutu Kimihama, i te taha o Peterehema, he mea kia haere ai ratou ki Ihipa,
18 to escape the Chaldeans. For they were afraid of the Chaldeans because Ishmael son of Nethaniah had struck down Gedaliah son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had appointed over the land.
I te wehi ki nga Karari; i wehi hoki ratou i a ratou, mo te patunga a Ihimaera tama a Netania i a Keraria tama a Ahikama, i meinga nei e te kingi o Papurona hei kawana mo te whenua.
