< Jeremiah 41 >

1 And it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael son of Nethaniah son of Elishama of the seed royal and chiefs of the king, and ten men with him, came in, unto Gedaliah son of Ahikam, at Mizpah, —and they did there eat bread together in Mizpah.
Agora, no sétimo mês, Ismael, filho de Nethaniah, filho de Elishama, da descendência real e um dos chefes do rei, e dez homens com ele, vieram a Gedaliah, filho de Ahikam, a Mizpah; e lá comeram pão juntos em Mizpah.
2 Then arose Ishmael son of Nethaniah—and the ten men who were with him and they smote Gedaliah son of Ahikam son of Shaphan—with the sword and slew him whom the king of Babylon had set in charge, over the land.
Então Ishmael, filho de Netanias, levantou-se e os dez homens que estavam com ele, e atingiu Gedaliah, filho de Ahikam, filho de Shaphan, com a espada, e o matou, a quem o rei da Babilônia havia nomeado governador sobre a terra.
3 And Ishmael smote, all the Jews who were with him even with Gedaliah in Mizpah, and the Chaldeans who were found there the men of war.
Ismael também matou todos os judeus que estavam com Gedaliah em Mizpah, e os homens caldeus de guerra que foram encontrados lá.
4 And it came to pass, on the second day, after he had slain Gedaliah, not, a man, knowing it,
No segundo dia depois de ter matado Gedaliah, e nenhum homem sabia disso,
5 that men came in from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, —eighty men, with beards shaven and clothes rent who also had cut themselves, with a meal-offering and frankincense in their hand, to bring them into the house of Yahweh.
vieram homens de Shechem, de Shiloh, e de Samaria, mesmo oitenta homens, tendo a barba raspada e as roupas rasgadas, e tendo-se cortado, com ofertas de refeições e incenso na mão, para levá-los à casa de Yahweh.
6 Then went forth Ishmael son of Nethaniah to meet them out of Mizpah, weeping all along as he went, —and it came to pass when he fell in with them, that he said unto them, Come ye in unto Gedaliah son of Ahikam.
Ishmael, filho de Nethaniah, saiu de Mizpah para encontrá-los, chorando o tempo todo enquanto ia, e ao conhecê-los, disse-lhes: “Venham a Gedaliah, o filho de Ahikam”.
7 And so it was when they had come into the midst of the city, that Ishmael son of Nethaniah slew them and cast them into the midst of a pit, he and the men who were with him.
Foi assim, quando entraram no meio da cidade, que Ismael, o filho de Nethaniah, os matou e os lançou no meio do poço, ele e os homens que estavam com ele.
8 But, ten men, were found among them, who said unto Ishmael—Do not put us to death, for we have secret treasures in the field, wheat and barley and oil and honey, So he forbare and put them not to death in the midst of their brethren.
Mas dez homens foram encontrados entre aqueles que disseram a Ismael: “Não nos matem, pois temos lojas escondidas no campo, de trigo, de cevada, de óleo e de mel”. Então ele parou, e não os matou entre seus irmãos.
9 Now the pit whereinto Ishmael cast all the dead bodies of the men whom he had smitten, was a large pit which King Asa had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel, —the same, did Ishmael son of Nethaniah fill with the slain,
Agora, o poço no qual Ismael lançou todos os cadáveres dos homens que ele havia matado, ao lado de Gedalias (isto era o que Asa, o rei, havia feito por medo de Baasa, rei de Israel), Ismael, filho de Netanias, encheu-o com aqueles que foram mortos.
10 Then did Ishmael take captive all the remnant of the people that was in Mizpah, —the daughters of the king, and all the people that were left remaining in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan chief of the royal executioners had committed unto Gedaliah son of Ahikam, —yea Ishmael son of Nethaniah took them captive, and departed to pass over unto the sons of Ammon.
Então Ismael levou cativas todas as pessoas que ficaram em Mizpah, até mesmo as filhas do rei, e todas as pessoas que ficaram em Mizpah, que Nebuzaradan, o capitão da guarda, havia comprometido com Gedaliah, o filho de Ahikam. Ismael, filho de Nethaniah, levou-os cativos e partiu para ir ter com as crianças de Ammon.
11 But when Johanan son of Kareah and all the captains of the forces who were with him heard of all the wickedness which Ishmael son of Nethaniah had done,
Mas quando Johanan o filho de Kareah, e todos os capitães das forças que estavam com ele, ouviram falar de todo o mal que Ismael o filho de Nethaniah tinha feito,
12 then took they all the men, and went their way to fight with Ishmael son of Nethaniah, —and found him near the many waters which were in Gibeon.
então levaram todos os homens, e foram lutar com Ismael o filho de Nethaniah, e o encontraram junto às grandes águas que estão em Gibeon.
13 And it came to pass, when all the people who were with Ishmael saw Johanan son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, then were they glad.
Agora, quando todas as pessoas que estavam com Ismael viram Johanan, o filho de Kareah, e todos os capitães das forças que estavam com ele, então ficaram contentes.
14 So all the people whom Ishmael had carried away captive out of Mizpah, compassed about, and returned and went their way unto Johanan son of Kareah.
Então todas as pessoas que Ismael tinha levado cativas de Mizpah se voltaram e voltaram, e foram para Johanan o filho de Kareah.
15 But, Ishmael son of Nethaniah, escaped with eight men, from the face of Johanan, —and departed unto the sons of Ammon.
Mas Ismael o filho de Nethaniah escapou de Johanan com oito homens, e foi para as crianças de Ammon.
16 Then did Johanan son of Kareah and all the captains of the forces who were with him take all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael son of Nethaniah out of Mizpah, after he had smitten Gedaliah son of Ahikam, —mighty men, men of war, and women and children and eunuchs, whom he had recovered out of Gibeon;
Então Johanan o filho de Kareah e todos os capitães das forças que estavam com ele levaram todo o resto do povo que ele havia recuperado de Ismael o filho de Nethaniah, de Mizpah, depois de ter matado Gedaliah o filho de Ahikam - os homens de guerra, com as mulheres, as crianças e os eunucos, que ele havia trazido de Gibeon.
17 and they departed, and dwelt in the khan of Chimham, which is near Bethlehem, —that they might go to enter Egypt;
Eles partiram e viveram em Geruth Chimham, que é de Belém, para entrar no Egito
18 because of the Chaldeans, for they were afraid of them, —because Ishmael son of Nethaniah had smitten Gedaliah son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had set in charge over the land.
por causa dos caldeus; pois tinham medo deles, pois Ismael, filho de Netanias, havia matado Gedaliah, filho de Ahikam, a quem o rei da Babilônia nomeou governador sobre a terra.
