< Jeremiah 41 >

1 And it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah the son of Elishama, of the royal seed, and [one] of the king's chief men, and ten men with him, came to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam unto Mizpah, and there they ate bread together, in Mizpah.
Ní oṣù keje Iṣmaeli, ọmọ Netaniah ọmọ Eliṣama, nínú irú-ọmọ ọba, àti àwọn ìjòyè ọba, àti àwọn ọkùnrin mẹ́wàá pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, wọ́n tọ Gedaliah ọmọ Ahikamu wá ní Mispa; níbẹ̀ ni wọ́n jùmọ̀ jẹun ní Mispa.
2 And Ishmael the son of Nethaniah arose, and the ten men that were with him, and smote Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan with the sword, and killed him, whom the king of Babylon had appointed over the land.
Iṣmaeli ọmọ Netaniah àti àwọn ọkùnrin mẹ́wàá tí wọ́n wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, sì dìde wọ́n kọlu Gedaliah ọmọ Ahikamu, ọmọ Ṣafani pẹ̀lú idà. Wọ́n sì pa á, ẹni tí ọba Babeli ti fi jẹ baálẹ̀ lórí ilẹ̀ náà.
3 And Ishmael smote all the Jews that were with him, with Gedaliah, at Mizpah, and the Chaldeans that were found there, the men of war.
Iṣmaeli sì tún pa gbogbo àwọn Júù tí wọ́n wà pẹ̀lú Gedaliah ní Mispa, àti gbogbo àwọn ọmọ-ogun Babeli tí wọ́n wà níbẹ̀ bákan náà.
4 And it came to pass the second day after he had killed Gedaliah, and no man knew it,
Ní ọjọ́ kejì tí wọ́n pa Gedaliah kí ó tó di wí pé ẹnikẹ́ni mọ̀,
5 that there came men from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, eighty men, having their beards shaven and their clothes rent, and having cut themselves; with oblations and incense in their hand, to bring them to the house of Jehovah.
àwọn ọgọ́rin ọkùnrin wá láti Ṣekemu, Ṣilo àti Samaria, wọ́n fa irùngbọ̀n wọn, wọ́n ya aṣọ wọn, wọ́n ṣá ara wọn lọ́gbẹ́, wọ́n mú ẹbọ ọpẹ́ àti tùràrí wá sí ilé Olúwa.
6 And Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went forth from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went; and it came to pass when he met them, he said unto them, Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam.
Iṣmaeli ọmọkùnrin Netaniah jáde kúrò láti Mispa láti lọ pàdé wọn. Ó sì ń sọkún bí ó ti ṣe ń lọ, nígbà tí ó pàdé wọn, ó wí pé, “Ẹ wá sọ́dọ̀ Gedaliah ọmọkùnrin Ahikamu.”
7 And it was so, when they came into the midst of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, he and the men that were with him, slew them, [and cast them] into the midst of the pit.
Nígbà tí wọ́n dé ìlú náà; Iṣmaeli ọmọkùnrin Netaniah àti àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ pa wọ́n, wọ́n sì sọ òkú wọn sínú ihò kan.
8 But ten men were found among them that said unto Ishmael, Do not kill us, for we have hidden stores in the field, of wheat, and of barley, and of oil, and of honey. So he forbore, and did not kill them among their brethren.
Ṣùgbọ́n mẹ́wàá nínú wọn sọ fún Iṣmaeli pé, “Má ṣe pa wá! Àwa ní ọkà àti barle, òróró àti oyin ní ìpamọ́ nínú oko.” Nítorí náà, ó fi wọ́n sílẹ̀: kò sì pa wọ́n pẹ̀lú àwọn yòókù.
9 And the pit into which Ishmael had cast all the dead bodies of the men whom he had slain by the side of Gedaliah was the one which Asa the king had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel: Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with the slain.
Nísinsin yìí, ihò náà tí ó kó gbogbo ara àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó ti pa pẹ̀lú Gedaliah sí ni ọba Asa ń lò gẹ́gẹ́ bí i ààbò nítorí ọba Baaṣa ti Israẹli. Iṣmaeli ọmọ Netaniah sì ti kó òkú kún inú rẹ̀.
10 And Ishmael carried away captive all the remnant of the people that were in Mizpah, the king's daughters, and all the people that remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzar-adan the captain of the body-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 children of Ammon.
Iṣmaeli sì kó gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí ó wà ní Mispa nígbèkùn, ọmọbìnrin ọba àti gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tókù síbẹ̀ lórí àwọn tí Nebusaradani balógun àwọn ẹ̀ṣọ́ ti fi yan Gedaliah ọmọkùnrin Ahikamu ṣe olórí. Iṣmaeli ọmọkùnrin Netaniah kó wọn ní ìgbèkùn, ó sì jáde rékọjá sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn Ammoni.
11 And Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, heard of all the evil that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had done;
Nígbà tí Johanani ọmọkùnrin Karea àti gbogbo àwọn olórí ogun tí wọ́n wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ gbọ́ nípa gbogbo ìpànìyàn náà tí Iṣmaeli ọmọ Netaniah ti ṣe.
12 and they took all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and found him by the great waters that are at Gibeon.
Wọ́n kó gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin wọn, wọ́n sì, lọ bá Iṣmaeli ọmọ Netaniah jà. Wọ́n pàdé rẹ̀ ní odò kan lẹ́bàá Gibeoni.
13 And it came to pass when all the people that were with Ishmael saw Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, then they were glad.
Nígbà tí gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn Iṣmaeli tí wọ́n wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ rí Johanani ọmọkùnrin Karea àti àwọn olórí ogun rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, wọ́n sì yọ̀.
14 And all the people that Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah turned about and came back, and went to Johanan the son of Kareah.
Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí Iṣmaeli ti kó ní ìgbèkùn ní Mispa yípadà, wọ́n sì lọ sọ́dọ̀ Johanani ọmọ Karea.
15 But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the children of Ammon.
Ṣùgbọ́n Iṣmaeli ọmọkùnrin Netaniah àti àwọn mẹ́jọ nínú àwọn ọkùnrin rẹ̀ bọ́ lọ́wọ́ Johanani, wọ́n sì sálọ sí Ammoni.
16 Then Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, took all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, from Mizpah, after he had slain Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the mighty men of war, and the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought again from Gibeon;
Lẹ́yìn náà Johanani ọmọkùnrin Karea àti gbogbo àwọn ọmọ-ogun tí wọn wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ sì kó gbogbo àwọn tí ó kù ní Mispa; àwọn tí ó ti rí gbà lọ́wọ́ Iṣmaeli ọmọkùnrin Netaniah; lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ó ti pa Gedaliah ọmọ Ahikamu. Àwọn ọmọ-ogun, àwọn obìnrin, àwọn ọmọdé àti àwọn olórí ilé ẹjọ́ tí ó ti kó wa láti Gibeoni.
17 and they departed, and dwelt at Geruth-Chimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt,
Wọ́n sì kúrò níbẹ̀, wọ́n dúró ní Geruti Kimhamu ní ẹ̀bá Bẹtilẹhẹmu ní ọ́nà ìrìnàjò wọn sí Ejibiti.
18 because of the Chaldeans; for they feared them, because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had smitten Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had appointed over the land.
Láti gba àwọn Babeli sílẹ̀. Wọ́n bẹ̀rù wọn nítorí wí pé, “Iṣmaeli ọmọ Netaniah ti pa Gedaliah ọmọ Ahikamu èyí tí ọba Babeli ti yàn gẹ́gẹ́ bí i gómìnà lórí ilẹ̀ náà.”
