Jeremiah 41
1 But in the seuenth moneth came Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah, the sonne of Elishama of the seede royall, and the princes of the King, and tenne men with him, vnto Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam to Mizpah, and there they did eate bread together in Mizpah.
Le ɣleti adrelia me la, Ismael, Netania ƒe vi, Elisama ƒe vi, ame si tso fiaƒome me, eye wònye fia ƒe dɔnunɔlawo dometɔ ɖeka la va Gedalia, Ahikam ƒe vi gbɔ le Mizpa kple ŋutsu ewo. Esi wole nu ɖum le kplɔ̃ ŋuti ɖekae la,
2 Then arose Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah with these tenne men that were with him, and smote Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam the sonne of Shaphan with the sword, and slewe him, whom the King of Babel had made gouernour ouer the lande.
Netania ƒe vi, Ismael kple ŋutsu ewo siwo le eŋuti la tsi tsitre, eye wotsɔ yi ƒo ɖe Gedalia, Ahikam ƒe vi, Safan ƒe vi eye wowu ame si Babilonia fia tsɔ ɖo mɔmefiae ɖe anyigba la dzi.
3 Ishmael also slewe all the Iewes that were with Gedaliah at Mizpah, and all the Caldeans that were found there, and the men of warre.
Ismael wu Yudatɔ siwo ƒo ƒu ɖe Gedalia gbɔ le Mizpa la hã, hekpe ɖe Babiloniasrafo siwo le afi ma la ŋuti.
4 Now the second day that he had slaine Gedaliah, and no man knewe it,
Gbe si gbe wowu Gedalia ƒe fɔŋli, hafi ame aɖe nase nu si dzɔ la,
5 There came men from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, euen fourescore men, hauing their beardes shauen, and their clothes rent and cut, with offerings and incense in their hands to offer in the house of the Lord.
ŋutsu blaenyi siwo lũ ge, dze awu le wo ɖokuiwo ŋu eye wode abi wo ɖokuiwo ŋu la, tso Sekem, Silo kple Samaria va eye wotsɔ nuɖuvɔsa kple dzudzɔʋeʋĩdonuwo ɖe asi va Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ mee.
6 And Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah went forth from Mizpah to meete them, weeping as he went: and when he met them, he said vnto them, Come to Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam.
Ismael, Netania ƒe vi, tso le Mizpa kple avi hehehe yina wo kpe ge. Esi wòdo go wo la, egblɔ na wo be, “Miva Gedalia, Ahikam vi la gbɔ.”
7 And when they came into the middes of the citie, Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah slewe them, and cast them into the middes of the pit, he and the men that were with him.
Esi woge ɖe dua me la, Ismael, Netania ƒe vi kple ŋutsu siwo kpe ɖe eŋu la lé wo, tso ta le wo nu eye wotsɔ woƒe kukuawo ƒu gbe ɖe vudo me.
8 But tenne men were founde among them, that saide vnto Ishmael, Slay vs not: for we haue treasures in the fielde, of wheate, and of barley, and of oyle, and of honie: so he stayed, and slew them not among their brethren.
Ke wo dometɔ ewo gblɔ na Ismael be, “Mègawu mí o! Bli, lu, ami kple anyitsi le mía si míeɣla ɖe gbe me.” Ale mewu woawo kpe ɖe ame mamlɛawo ŋu o.
9 Now the pit wherein Ishmael had cast the dead bodies of the men (whom he had slayne because of Gedaliah) is it, which Asa the King had made because of Basha King of Israel, and Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah filled it with them that were slaine.
Ke vudo si me wòtsɔ ame siwo wòwu kpe ɖe Gedalia ŋu ƒe kukuawo ƒu gbe ɖo lae nye esi Fia Asa ɖe be yeatsɔ axe mɔ na Israel fia Baasa. Ke Netania ƒe vi, Ismael yɔe fũu kple ŋutilã kukuwo.
10 Then Ishmael caryed away captiue all the residue of the people that were in Mizpah, euen the Kings daughters, and all the people that remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzar-adan the chiefe steward had committed to Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam, and Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah caried them away captiue, and departed to goe ouer to the Ammonites.
Emegbe Ismael kplɔ dukɔ la ƒe ame mamlɛ siwo le Mizpa, fiavinyɔnuwo hekpe ɖe ame siwo katã susɔ ɖe afi ma ŋu, ame siwo nu aʋafia Nebuzaradan tsɔ Ahikam ƒe vi ɖo mɔmefiae la dzoe abe aʋaléleawo ene. Ismael, Netania ƒe vi la, kplɔ wo aboyomewoe eye wòɖo ta Amonitɔwo gbɔ kpli wo.
11 But when Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and all the captaines of the hoste that were with him, heard of all the euill that Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah had done,
Ke esi Karea ƒe vi, Yohanan kple asrafomegã siwo le egbɔ la se hlɔ̃donu siwo katã Netania ƒe vi, Ismael wɔ la,
12 Then they all tooke their men, and went to fight with Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah, and founde him by ye great waters that are in Gibeon.
wokplɔ woƒe aʋakɔ la katã be woayi aɖawɔ aʋa kple Netania ƒe vi Ismael. Wova tui le tɔ gã si le Gibeon la to.
13 Nowe when all the people whom Ishmael caryed away captiue, sawe Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and all the captaines of the hoste, that were with him, they were glad.
Esi ameha siwo katã le Ismael ŋu kpɔ Karea ƒe vi, Yohanan kple asrafomegã siwo kplɔe ɖo la, dzi dzɔ wo ale gbegbe.
14 So all the people, that Ishmael had caryed away captiue from Mizpah, returned and came againe, and went vnto Iohanan the sonne of Kareah.
Ame siwo katã Ismael ɖe aboyoe le Mizpa la trɔ le eyome eye woyi ɖe Yohanan, Karea ƒe vi la gbɔ.
15 But Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah, escaped from Iohanan with eight men, and went to the Ammonites.
Gake Netania ƒe vi, Ismael kple eŋutime enyi dze agbagba si le Yohanan nu yi ɖe Amonitɔwo gbɔ.
16 Then tooke Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and all the captaines of the hoste that were with him, all the remnant of the people, whom Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah had caried away captiue from Mizpah, (after that he had slaine Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam) euen the strong men of warre, and the women, and the children, and the eunuches, whom hee had brought againe from Gibeon:
Azɔ la, Yohanan, Karea ƒe vi kple asrafomegã siwo katã le eŋu la kplɔ dukɔ la ƒe ame siwo susɔ ɖe Mizpa, ame siwo woxɔ le Ismael, Netania ƒe vi la si, esi wòwu Ahikam vi, Gedalia la dzoe. Ameawoe nye: asrafowo, nyɔnuwo, ɖeviwo kple fiasãmedɔwɔla siwo wòkplɔ tso Gibeon.
17 And they departed and dwelt in Geruth Chimham, which is by Beth-lehem, to goe and to enter into Egypt,
Wodze mɔ le yiyim eye wova tɔ ɖe Gerut Kimham si te ɖe Betlehem ŋu, esi wole mɔ dzi yina ɖe Egipte
18 Because of the Caldeans: for they feared them, because Ishmael ye sonne of Nethaniah had slaine Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam, whom the King of Babel made gouernour in the land.
ne woasi le Babiloniatɔwo nu. Wole vɔvɔ̃m na wo elabena Netania ƒe vi, Ismael wu Ahikam ƒe vi, Gedalia, ame si Babilonia fia tsɔ ɖo mɔmefiae ɖe anyigba la dzi.
