Jeremiah 41
1 Now it happened in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the royal family and one of the chief officers of the king, and ten men with him, came to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and there they ate bread together in Mizpah.
到了七月，厄里沙瑪的孫子，乃塔尼雅的兒子依市瑪耳──他是王家的後代，是君王的大臣──帶了十個人來到米茲帕阿希甘的兒子革達里雅那裏；當他們在米茲帕一同進餐時，
2 Then arose Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and the ten men who were with him, and struck Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan with the sword, and killed him, whom the king of Babylon had made governor over the land.
乃塔尼雅的兒子依市瑪耳和他帶來的十個人就起來，拔刀擊殺了巴比倫王委派管理地方的沙番的孫子，阿希甘的兒子革達里雅。
3 Ishmael also killed all the Jews who were with him, with Gedaliah, at Mizpah, and the Chaldeans who were found there, the men of war.
凡在米茲帕與達里雅在一起的猶太人，和在那裏偶然相遇的加色丁兵士，依市瑪耳也都擊殺了。
4 It happened the second day after he had killed Gedaliah, and no man knew it,
革達里雅被害後第二天，人尚一無所知。
5 that there came men from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, even eighty men, having their beards shaved and their clothes torn, and having cut themselves, with meal offerings and frankincense in their hand, to bring them to the house of the LORD.
有八十個人從舍根、史羅、撒瑪黎雅前來，都剃去了鬍鬚，撕破了衣服，割傷了身體，手裏拿著素祭祭品和乳香，要帶到上主殿宇去，
6 Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went forth from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went: and it happened, as he met them, he said to them, "Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam."
沿途且走且哭。乃塔尼雅的兒子依市瑪耳從米茲帕出來迎接他們，一遇見他們就對他們說：「你們往阿希甘的兒子革達里雅那裏去罷! 」
7 It was so, when they came into the midst of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah killed them, and cast them into the midst of the pit, he, and the men who were with him.
他們到了城市中心，乃塔尼雅的兒子依市瑪耳和自己的部下就將他們殺了，扔在蓄水池裏。
8 But ten men were found among those who said to Ishmael, "Do not kill us; for we have stores hidden in the field, of wheat, and of barley, and of oil, and of honey. So he stopped, and did not kill them among their brothers.
其中有十個人卻對依市瑪耳說：「不要殺害我們，因為我們在田野裏藏有油、蜜、大麥和小麥。」他遂即住手，沒有將他們與他們的弟兄一同殺掉。
9 Now the pit in which Ishmael cast all the dead bodies of the men whom he had killed was a large one that King Asa had constructed in the encounter with Baasha king of Israel. Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with those who were killed.
依市瑪耳將所殺之人的屍首，丟在那裏的一個蓄水池內，那是一個很大的蓄水池，原是阿撒君王為對抗以色列君王巴厄沙而建造的；乃塔尼雅的兒子依市瑪耳用自己所殺之人的屍首填滿了這蓄水池。
10 Then Ishmael carried away captive all the residue of the people who were in Mizpah, even the king's daughters, and all the people who remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the 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 people of Ammon.
以後依市瑪耳擄去了留在米茲帕的遺民和王室閨秀，以及還留在米茲帕所有的人民：這些人，原是衛隊長乃步匝辣當委託給阿希甘的兒子革達里雅的；乃塔尼雅的兒子依市瑪耳卻將他們擄走，投往阿孟子民那裏去。
11 But when Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, heard of all the evil that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had done,
卡勒亞的兒子約哈南和隨從他的其餘部隊首領，得知乃塔尼雅的兒子依市瑪耳所做的一切惡事，
12 then they took all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and found him by the great waters that are in Gibeon.
就帶領自己所左的部下，去攻擊乃塔尼雅的兒子依市瑪耳，在基貝紅大水池旁與他相遇。
13 Now it happened that, when all the people who were with Ishmael saw Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, then they were glad.
與依市耳瑪在一起的全體人民，一見卡勒亞的兒子約哈南和隨他前來的眾部隊首領，無不喜出望外。
14 So all the people who Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah turned about and came back, and went to Johanan the son of Kareah.
依市瑪耳從米茲帕擄來的全體人民，都轉身歸順卡勒亞的兒子約哈南；
15 But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the people of Ammon.
只有乃塔尼雅的兒子依市瑪耳和八個人，由約哈南面前逃脫，跑到阿孟子民那裏去了。
16 Then took Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, from Mizpah, after that he had killed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the men of war, and the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought back from Gibeon:
卡勒亞的兒子約哈南與隨從自己的眾部隊首領，就接收了乃塔尼雅的兒子依市瑪耳，在謀害阿希甘的兒子革達里雅後，從米茲帕擄走的全部遺民，能作戰的男子和婦女，幼童及宦官，從基貝紅將他們帶回來，
17 and they departed, and lived in Geruth Kimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt,
一路前行，在靠近白冷的革魯特基默罕住下，有意進入埃及，
18 because of the Chaldeans; for they were afraid of them, because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had killed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon made governor over the land.
遠避加色丁人。他們實在害怕見到加色丁人，因為乃塔尼雅的兒子依市瑪耳，謀殺了巴比倫王委派管理地方的阿希甘的兒子革達里雅。
