Jeremiah 41
1 Ishmael was a member of the king’s family. He had been one of King Zedekiah’s important officials. In October of that year, he went to Mizpah with ten other men to [talk with] Gedaliah. While they were eating together,
Ngem napasamak nga iti maika-pito a bulan, ni Ismael a putot ni Netanias a putot ni Elisama, a nagtaud iti pamilia dagiti ari, ken sumagmamano nga opisial ti ari-kaduana iti sangapulo a lallaki-ket napanda kenni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam, idiay Mizpa. Nagsasangoda a nangan idiay Mizpa.
2 Ishmael and the other ten men jumped up, and with their swords they killed Gedaliah—the man whom the king of Babylon had appointed to be their governor!
Ngem timmakder ni Ismael a putot ni Netanias, ken dagiti sangapulo a lallaki a kaduana ket dinarupda ni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam a putot ni Safan, babaen iti kampilan. Pinatay ni Ismael ni Gedalias, a dinutokan ti ari ti Babilonia a mangimaton iti daga.
3 Ishmael [and the other men] also killed all the Jews and the soldiers from Babylonia who were with Gedaliah at Mizpah.
Ket pinapatay ni Ismael dagiti amin a Judio a kadua ni Gedalias idiay Mizpa ken dagiti mannakigubat a Caldeo a nasarakanda sadiay.
4 The next day, before anyone had found out that Gedaliah had been murdered,
Ket daytoy ti maikadua nga aldaw kalapasan ti panangpapatayda kenni Gedalias, ngem awan ti siasinoman a nakaammo.
5 eighty men from Shechem, Shiloh, and Samaria [cities] came to worship at the temple of Yahweh [in Mizpah]. They had shaved off their beards and torn their clothes and cut themselves [to show that they were mourning]. And they had brought grain offerings and incense [to burn on the altar].
Adda lallaki nga immay manipud Sikem, Silo, ken Samaria-walopulo a lallaki a nangahit kadagiti barbasda, nangrayab-da kadagiti kawesda, ken nangsugat kadagiti bagbagida-adda iggemda a taraon a maisagut ken insenso nga ipanda iti balay ni Yahweh.
6 Ishmael went out of the city to meet them, crying as he went. When he reached them, he said, “Come [and see what has happened to] Gedaliah!”
Isu a rimmuar ni Ismael a putot ni Netanias manipud Mizpa tapno sabtenna ida bayat ti ipapanda, a magmagna ken agsangsangitda. Ket napasamak nga idi masabatna ida, kinunana kadakuada, “Umaykayo kenni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam!”
7 But as soon as they had all entered the town, Ishmael and his men killed [most of] them and threw their corpses into a well.
Ket napasamak nga idi simrekda iti siudad, pinapatay ida ni Ismael a putot ni Netanias ken intappuakna ida iti abot, isuna ken dagiti lallaki a kakaduana.
8 There were [only] ten of them whom they (spared/did not kill). They were not killed because they promised to Ishmael that [if he allowed them to remain alive, they would bring him] lots of wheat and barley and olive oil and honey that they had hidden.
Ngem adda sangapulo a lallaki a kadakuada a nagkuna kenni Ismael, “Saannakami a papatayen, ta adda taraonmi kadagiti taltalonmi: trigo ken sebada, lana ken diro.” Isu a saanna ida a pinapatay agraman dagiti dadduma a kakaduada.
9 The well where Ishmael’s men had thrown the corpses of the men whom they had murdered was the deep well that King Asa’s [men] had dug [in order that they would have water in the city] if the army of King Baasha of Israel would surround the city. Ishmael’s men filled that well with corpses.
Ti abot a nangibellengan ni Ismael kadagiti bangkay dagiti lallaki a pinapatayda agraman ni Gedalias-daytoy a dakkel nga abot ket kinali ni Ari Asa idi rinaut ida ni Ari Baasa nga ari ti Israel. Pinunno daytoy ni Ismael a putot ni Netanias kadagiti pinapatayna.
10 Then Ishmael [and his men] captured the king’s daughters and some of the other people who had been left in Mizpah by Nebuzaradan in order that Gedaliah would take care of them. Ishmael and his men took those people and started back toward the Ammon area.
Ti simmaruno ket tiniliw amin ni Ismael dagiti tattao nga adda idiay Mizpa, dagiti babbai a putot ti ari ken amin dagiti tattao a nabatbati idiay Mizpa nga impaaywan ni Nebuzaradan, a pangulo dagiti agbanbantay, kenni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam. Tiniliw ngarud ida ni Ismael a putot ni Netanias ket kalpasanna, pimmanaw tapno bumallasiw iti ayan dagiti tattao ti Ammon.
11 But Johanan and all the other leaders of the Israeli soldiers who had not surrendered to the army of Babylonia heard about what Ishmael [and his men] had done.
Ngem nadamag ni Johanan a putot ni Karea ken dagiti amin a mangidadaulo a kaduana dagiti amin a dakes nga inaramid ni Ismael a putot ni Netanias.
12 So they [immediately] went with all their men to stop them. They caught up with them at the large pool near Gibeon [city].
Isu nga inummongda amin dagiti tattaoda ket napanda nakiranget kenni Ismael a putot ni Netanias. Nasarakanda isuna iti nalawa a pagdigusan idiay Gabaon.
13 When all the people whom Ishmael and his men had captured saw Johanan and the soldiers who were with him, they [shouted] joyfully.
Ket napasamak nga idi nakita dagiti amin a tattao a kadua ni Ismael ni Johanan a putot ni Karea ken dagiti amin a mangidadaulo ti armada a kakaduana, naragsakanda unay.
14 So all those who had been captured in Mizpah escaped, and they started to help Johanan.
Isu nga amin dagiti tattao a tiniliw ni Ismael idiay Mizpa ket nagsubli ket napanda kenni Johanan a putot ni Karea.
15 But Ishmael and eight of his men escaped and fled to the Ammon area.
Ngem naglibas ni Ismael a putot ni Netanias a kaduana dagiti walo a lallaki manipud kenni Johanan. Napan isuna kadagiti tattao ti Ammon.
16 Then Johanan and the men who were with him [gathered together] all the people whom they had rescued at Gibeon. They included soldiers and women and children and some of the king’s palace officials. They were all people whom Ishmael [and his men] had captured after they had killed Gedaliah.
Inkuyog ni Johanan, a putot ni Karea ken dagiti amin a mangidadaulo kadagiti armada, dagiti amin a tattao manipud Mizpa a naispal manipud kenni Ismael a putot ni Netanias. Daytoy ket kalpasan iti panangpapapatay ni Ismael kenni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam. Innala ni Johanan ken dagiti kakaduana dagiti napipigsa a lallaki, dagiti mannakigubat a lallaki, dagiti babbai ken ubbing, ken dagiti eunoko a naispal idiay Gabaon.
17 They took them all to Geruth-Kimham [village] near Bethlehem. And they all prepared to go to Egypt.
Ket napanda naggian iti apagbiit idiay Gerut Kimham, nga asideg iti Betlehem. Mapanda koma idiay Egipto
18 They were worried about what the soldiers of Babylonia [would do to them when they found out] that Ishmael had killed Gedaliah, who had been appointed by the King of Babylonia to be their governor.
gapu kadagiti Caldeo. Mabutengda kadakuada agsipud ta pinapatay ni Ismael a putot ni Netanias ni Gedalias a putot ni Ahikam, a dinutokan ti ari ti Babilonia a mangituray iti daga.
