< Jeremiah 41 >
1 And it cometh to pass, in the seventh month, come hath Ishmael son of Nethaniah, son of Elishama, of the seed royal, and of the chiefs of the king, and ten men with him, unto Gedaliah son of Ahikam, to Mizpah, and they eat there bread together in Mizpah.
Et factum est in mense septimo, venit Ismahel filius Nathaniæ, filii Elisama de semine regali, et optimates regis, et decem viri cum eo, ad Godoliam filium Ahicam in Masphath: et comederunt ibi panes simul in Masphath.
2 And Ishmael son of Nethaniah riseth, and the ten men who have been with him, and they smite Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, with the sword, and he putteth him to death whom the king of Babylon hath appointed over the land.
Surrexit autem Ismahel filius Nathaniæ, et decem viri, qui cum eo erant, et percusserunt Godoliam filium Ahicam filii Saphan gladio, et interfecerunt eum, quem præfecerat rex Babylonis terræ.
3 And all the Jews who have been with him, with Gedaliah, in Mizpah, and the Chaldeans who have been found there — the men of war — hath Ishmael smitten.
Omnes quoque Iudæos, qui erant cum Godolia in Masphath, et Chaldæos, qui reperti sunt ibi, et viros bellatores percussit Ismahel.
4 And it cometh to pass, on the second day of the putting of Gedaliah to death, (and no one hath known, )
Secundo autem die postquam occiderat Godoliam, nullo adhuc sciente,
5 that men come in from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria — eighty men — with shaven beards, and rent garments, and cutting themselves, and an offering and frankincense in their hand, to bring in to the house of Jehovah.
venerunt viri de Sichem, et de Silo, et de Samaria octoginta viri: rasi barba, et scissis vestibus, et squallentes: et munera, et thus habebant in manu, ut offerrent in domo Domini.
6 And Ishmael son of Nethaniah goeth forth to meet them, from Mizpah, going on and weeping, and it cometh to pass, at meeting them, that he saith unto them, 'Come in unto Gedaliah son of Ahikam.'
Egressus ergo Ismahel filius Nathaniæ in occursum eorum de Masphath, incedens et plorans ibat: cum autem occurrisset eis, dixit ad eos: Venite ad Godoliam filium Ahicam.
7 And it cometh to pass, at their coming in unto the midst of the city, that Ishmael son of Nethaniah doth slaughter them, at the midst of the pit, he and the men who [are] with him.
Qui cum venissent ad medium civitatis, interfecit eos Ismahel filius Nathaniæ circa medium laci, ipse et viri, qui erant cum eo.
8 And ten men have been found among them, and they say unto Ishmael, 'Do not put us to death, for we have things hidden in the field — wheat, and barley, and oil, and honey.' And he forbeareth, and hath not put them to death in the midst of their brethren.
Decem autem viri reperti sunt inter eos, qui dixerunt ad Ismahel: Noli occidere nos: quia habemus thesauros in agro, frumenti, et hordei, et olei, et mellis. Et cessavit: et non interfecit eos cum fratribus suis.
9 And the pit whither Ishmael hath cast all the carcases of the men whom he hath smitten along with Gedaliah, is that which the king Asa made because of Baasha king of Israel — it hath Ishmael son of Nethaniah filled with the pierced.
Lacus autem, in quem proiecerat Ismahel omnia cadavera virorum, quos percussit propter Godoliam, ipse est, quem fecit rex Asa propter Baasa regem Israel: ipsum replevit Ismahel filius Nathaniæ occisis.
10 And Ishmael taketh captive all the remnant of the people who [are] in Mizpah, the daughters of the king, and all the people who are left in Mizpah, whom Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, hath committed [to] Gedaliah son of Ahikam, and Ishmael son of Nethaniah taketh them captive, and goeth to pass over unto the sons of Ammon.
Et captivas duxit Ismahel omnes reliquias populi, qui erant in Masphath: filias regis, et universum populum, qui remanserat in Masphath: quos commendaverat Nabuzardan princeps militiæ Godoliæ filio Ahicam. Et cepit eos Ismahel filius Nathaniæ, et abiit ut transiret ad filios Ammon.
11 And hear doth Johanan son of Kareah, and all the heads of the forces that [are] with him, of all the evil that Ishmael son of Nethaniah hath done,
Audivit autem Iohanan filius Caree, et omnes principes bellatorum, qui erant cum eo, omne malum, quod fecerat Ismahel filius Nathaniæ.
12 and they take all the men, and go to fight with Ishmael son of Nethaniah, and they find him at the great waters that [are] in Gibeon.
Et assumptis universis viris, profecti sunt ut bellarent adversum Ismahel filium Nathaniæ, et invenerunt eum ad aquas multas, quæ sunt in Gabaon.
13 And it cometh to pass, when all the people who [are] with Ishmael see Johanan son of Kareah, and all the heads of the forces who [are] with him, that they rejoice.
Cumque vidisset omnis populus, qui erat cum Ismahel, Iohanan filium Caree, et universos principes bellatorum, qui erant cum eo, lætati sunt.
14 And all the people whom Ishmael hath taken captive from Mizpah turn round, yea, they turn back, and go unto Johanan son of Kareah.
Et reversus est omnis populus, quem ceperat Ismahel, in Masphath: reversusque abiit ad Iohanan filium Caree.
15 And Ishmael son of Nethaniah hath escaped, with eight men, from the presence of Johanan, and he goeth unto the sons of Ammon.
Ismahel autem filius Nathaniæ fugit cum octo viris a facie Iohanan, et abiit ad filios Ammon.
16 And Johanan son of Kareah, and all the heads of the forces who [are] with him, take all the remnant of the people whom he hath brought back from Ishmael son of Nethaniah, from Mizpah — after he had smitten Gedaliah son of Ahikam — mighty ones, men of war, and women, and infants, and eunuchs, whom he had brought back from Gibeon,
Tulit ergo Iohanan filius Caree, et omnes principes bellatorum, qui erant cum eo, universas reliquias vulgi, quas reduxerat ab Ismahel filio Nathaniæ de Masphath, postquam percussit Godoliam filium Ahicam: fortes viros ad prælium, et mulieres, et pueros, et eunuchos, quos reduxerat de Gabaon.
17 and they go and abide in the habitations of Chimham, that [are] near Beth-Lehem, to go to enter Egypt,
Et abierunt, et sederunt peregrinantes in Chamaam, quæ est iuxta Bethlehem, ut pergerent, et introirent Ægyptum
18 from the presence of the Chaldeans, for they have been afraid of them, for Ishmael son of Nethaniah had smitten Gedaliah son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had appointed over the land.
a facie Chaldæorum: timebant enim eos, quia percusserat Ismahel filius Nathaniæ Godoliam filium Ahicam, quem præposuerat rex Babylonis in Terra Iuda.
