< Jeremiah 41 >
1 In the seventh month of the year, Ishmael son of Nethaniah, son of Elishama, a member of the royal family and one of the king's chief officers, came with ten of his men to see Gedaliah at Mizpah. While they were eating to have a meal together,
Nan setyèm mwa Ismaël, fis a Nethania a, fis a Élischama, manm fanmi wayal la, e youn nan chèf prensipal a wa yo, ansanm ak dis mesye te rive Mitspa, kote Guedalia, fis a Achikam nan. Pandan yo t ap manje pen ansanm nan Mitspa,
2 suddenly Ishmael and his ten men got up and attacked Gedaliah, killing him—the one appointed by the king of Babylon as the country's governor.
Ismaël, fis a Nethania a ak dis mesye ki t ap manje avèk li yo te leve e te touye Guedalia, fis a Achikam, fis a Schaphan an, ak nepe, e te mete a lanmò sila ke wa Babylone nan te apwente sou peyi a.
3 Ishamel also killed all the other Judeans who were with Gedaliah at Mizpah, along with the Babylonian soldiers there.
Ismaël, anplis, te frape touye tout Jwif ki te avè l yo, sa vle di ak Guedalia nan Mitspa, menm ak Kaldeyen ki te la yo, mesye lagè yo.
4 The day after Gedaliah had been murdered and before anyone knew about it,
Alò, li te rive nan pwochen jou apre lanmò a Guedalia a, lè pèsòn pa t konnen anyen sou sa,
5 a group of eighty men arrived from Shechem, Shiloh, and Samaria. They had shaved off their beards, torn their clothes, and cut themselves. They were carrying grain offerings and frankincense for the Lord's Temple.
ke katre-ven gason te sòti Sichem, Silo ak Samarie avèk bab yo retire nèt ak razwa, ak rad yo chire e kò yo blese, ofrann ak lansan nan men yo pou pote lakay SENYÈ a.
6 Ishmael came out to meet them from Mizpah, weeping as he went along. When Ishmael met the men, he said, “Come and see what's happened to Gedaliah son of Ahikam!”
Epi Ismaël, fis a Nethania a, te sòti Mitspa pou rankontre yo e li t ap kriye nan wout la; epi pandan li te rankontre yo, li te di yo: “Vin kote Guedalia, fis a Akchikam nan!”
7 But when they arrived in town, Ishmael and his men killed most of them and threw their bodies into a cistern.
Malgre sa, li te rive ke lè yo te antre anndan vil la, Ismaël, fis a Nethania a ak mesye ki te avè l yo te touye yo e jete yo nan sitèn nan.
8 But ten of them pleaded with Ishmael, “Don't kill us! We've got some good things hidden in the fields—wheat, barley, olive oil, and honey.” So Ishmael didn't kill them along with the others.
Men dis nan mesye ki te pami yo te di a Ismaël: “pa mete nou a lanmò, paske nou gen depo ble, lòj, lwil ansanm ak siwo myèl ki kache nan chan an.” Akoz sa, li te ralanti e pa t mete yo ansanm ak zanmi parèy yo a lanmò.
9 (The cistern where Ishmael had thrown all the bodies of the men he'd killed, including Gedaliah, was a large one that King Asa had dug because of the threat of attack by Baasha king of Israel. Ishmael filled it with bodies.)
Alò, konsènan sitèn kote Ismaël te jete tout kadav a mesye ke li te touye akoz Guedalia yo, se te sila ki te bati pa wa Asa a pou Baescha, wa Israël la; Ismaël, fis a Nethania a, te plen li ak moun mouri yo.
10 Then Ishmael took all the people left in Mizpah prisoner, including the daughters of the king, as well as everyone else living there. These were the people that Nebuzaradan the commander of the guard had put under the care of Gedaliah. Ishmael took them prisoner and left to go to the Ammonites.
Epi Ismaël te pran an kaptif tout retay ki te Mitspa yo, fi a wa yo ak tout moun ki te rete Mitspa yo, ke Nebuzaradan, chèf gad la, te mete sou chaj Guedalia, fis a Achikam nan. Konsa Ismaël, fis a Nethania a, te pran yo an kaptif e te pati pou janbe kote fis a Ammon yo.
11 Johanan and all the army commanders of the armies with him found out about all of Ishmael's crimes.
Men Jochanan, fis a Karéach la ak tout chèf a fòs lame ki te avèk li yo te tande afè mechanste ke Ismaël, fis a Nethania a, te fè a.
12 So they assembled all their men and went to attack Ishmael. They caught up with him near the large pool in Gibeon.
Pou sa, yo te pran tout mesye yo pou te ale goumen ak Ismaël, fis a Nethania. Yo te rankontre li akote gwo basen ki Gabaon an.
13 When Ishmael's prisoners saw Johanan and all the army commanders with him, they were happy.
Alò, la menm tout moun ki te avèk Ismaël yo te wè Jochanan, fis a Karéach la ak chèf lame an ki te avèk li yo. Konsa, yo te kontan.
14 All those that Ishmael had taken prisoner at Mizpah turned around and ran back to Johanan.
Tout moun ke Ismaël te pran kaptif soti Mitspa yo te vire retounen pou te ale kote Jochanan, fis a Karéach la.
15 Ishmael and eight of his men managed to escape from Johanan and get away to the Ammonites.
Men Ismaël, fis a Nethania a, te chape nan men Jochanan ak uit mesye pou te rive kote fis a Ammon yo.
16 Then Johanan and all the army commanders with him took charge of the survivors from Mizpah he'd rescued from Ishmael in Gibeon—the soldiers, women, children, and court officials that Ishmael had taken prisoner after he'd killed Gedaliah.
Epi Jochanan, fis a Karéach la ak tout chèf fòs lame ki te avèk li yo te pran soti Mitspa tout sila nan retay moun ke li te reprann soti nan men Ismaël, fis a Nethania a, lè l te fin touye Guedalia, fis a Achikam nan— ki vle di mesye ki te sòlda yo, fanm yo, timoun yo, ak enik ke li te mennen retounen soti Gabaon an.
17 They set off for Geruth Chimham near Bethlehem and stayed there, before leaving for Egypt
Yo te ale rete Gerut-Kimham, toupre Bethléem, pou yo te ka ale an Égypte,
18 to get away from the Babylonians. They were afraid of what the Babylonians would do because Ishmael had assassinated Gedaliah, the governor of the country appointed by the king of Babylon.
akoz Kaldeyen yo. Yo te krent yo, akoz Ismaël, fis a Nethania a, te touye Guedalia, fis a Achikam nan, ke wa Babylone nan te apwente sou peyi a.
