< 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.
Mu mwezi ogw’omusanvu Isimayiri mutabani wa Nesaniya, mutabani wa Erisaama, omu ku balangira ate nga ye omu ku bakulu b’eggye lya Yuda n’ajja n’abasajja kkumi eri Gedaliya mutabani wa Akikamu e Mizupa. Bwe baali nga balya,
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.
Isimayiri mutabani wa Nesaniya n’abasajja ekkumi abaali naye ne bayimuka ne batta Gedaliya, mutabani wa Akikamu, mutabani wa Safani, n’ekitala, gavana, kabaka w’e Babulooni gwe yali ataddewo okufuga mu nsi.
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.
Isimayiri n’atta n’Abayudaaya bonna abaali ne Gedaliya e Mizupa, n’abaserikale Abakaludaaya abaaliyo.
4 Now the second day that he had slaine Gedaliah, and no man knewe it,
Olunaku olwaddirira Gedaliya ng’amaze okuttibwa, nga tewannabaawo akimanyiiko,
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.
abasajja kinaana abaali beemwedde ebirevu, nga bayuzizza engoye zaabwe era nga beesazeesaze, bajja okuva e Sekemu, ne Siiro ne Samaliya, nga baleese ekiweebwayo eky’emmere ey’empeke n’obubaane eby’omu nnyumba ya Mukama.
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.
Isimayiri omwana wa Nesaniya n’ava e Mizupa okubasisinkana ng’agenda bw’akaaba. Bwe yabatuukako, n’abagamba nti, “Mujje eri Gedaliya omwana wa Akikamu.”
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.
Bwe baatuuka mu kibuga, Isimayiri mutabani wa Nesaniya n’abasajja be ne batta abamu ku basajja abo, ne babasuula mu kinnya.
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.
Naye kkumi ku bo ne bagamba Isimayiri nti, “Totutta! Tulina eŋŋaano ne sayiri, n’omuzigo, n’omubisi gw’enjuki, tubikwese mu nnimiro.” Awo ne babaleka ne batabattira wamu na bali abalala.
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.
Ekinnya mwe baasuula emirambo gy’abasajja bonna be battira awamu ne Gedaliya, kye kiri kabaka Asa kye yali asimye ng’alwanyisa Baasa kabaka wa Isirayiri. Isimayiri mutabani wa Nesaniya yakijjuza abafu.
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.
Isimayiri n’awamba abantu bonna abalala abaali e Mizupa, abawala ba kabaka n’abalala bonna abaali basigaddeyo, Nebuzaladaani omuduumizi w’eggye lya kabaka Nebukadduneeza be yali awadde Gedaliya mutabani wa Akikamu. Isimayiri mutabani wa Nesaniya n’abatwala nga bawambe ne yeetegeka okubasomosa okubatwala eri Abamoni.
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,
Yokanaani mutabani wa Kaleya n’abaduumizi bonna abaali naye bwe baawulira ebikolobero Isimayiri mutabani wa Nesaniya bye yali akoze,
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.
ne batwala abasajja baabwe bonna ne bagenda okulwanyisa Isimayiri mutabani wa Nesaniya. Ne bamutuukako okumpi n’amazzi amangi e Gibyoni.
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.
Abantu bonna abaali ne Isimayiri bwe baalaba Yokanaani mutabani wa Kaleya n’abaduumizi ba magye be yali nabo, ne basanyuka.
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.
Abantu bonna Isimayiri be yali awambye e Mizupa ne bakyuka ne bagenda eri Yokanaani mutabani wa Kaleya.
15 But Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah, escaped from Iohanan with eight men, and went to the Ammonites.
Naye Isimayiri mutabani wa Nesaniya ne basajja be munaana ne batoloka okuva ku Yokanaani ne bagenda mu ba Amoni.
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:
Awo Yokanaani mutabani wa Kaleya n’abaduumizi b’eggye bonna abaali naye ne batwala abawambe okuva e Mizupa be baali baggye ku Isimayiri mutabani wa Nesaniya ng’amaze okutta Gedaliya mutabani wa Akikamu: abaserikale, n’abakazi, n’abaana n’abakungu b’omu lubiri be yali aggye e Gibyoni.
17 And they departed and dwelt in Geruth Chimham, which is by Beth-lehem, to goe and to enter into Egypt,
Ne beeyongerayo ne bayimirirako e Gerusukimamu okumpi ne Besirekemu, nga boolekedde e Misiri,
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.
badduke Abakaludaaya. Baali batidde Abakaludaaya kubanga Isimayiri mutabani wa Nesaniya yali asse Gedaliya mutabani wa Akikamu, oyo kabaka w’e Babulooni gwe yali ataddewo okufuga ensi nga gavana.
