Ieremia 41

1 I KA hiku o ka malama, hiki mai la keia mau mea; o Isemaela, ke keiki a Netania, ke keiki a Elisama, no ka hanauna alii, a me na luna o ke alii, he umi kanaka pu me ia, hele mai la lakou ia Gedalia, i ke keiki a Ahikama, ma Mizepa; a malaila lakou i ai pu ai i ka berena ma Mizepa.

But it happened that in the seventh month Ishmael son of Nethaniah son of Elishama, from the royal family, and some officers of the king, came—ten men were with him—to Gedaliah son of Ahikam, at Mizpah. They ate food together there in Mizpah.

2 Alaila, ku mai la o Isemaela, ke keiki a Netania, a me na kanaka he umi e noho pu ana me ia, a pepehi iho la ia Gedalia i ke keiki a Ahikama, i ke keiki a Sapana i ka pahikaua, a make oia, o ka mea hoi a ke alii o Babulona i hoolilo ai i kiaaina o ia aina.

But Ishmael son of Nethaniah, and the ten men who were with him rose up and attacked Gedaliah son of Ahikam son of Shaphan, with the sword. Ishmael killed Gedaliah, whom the king of Babylon had put in charge of the land.

3 A pepehi no hoi o Isemaela i na Iudaio a pau e noho pu ana me ia, me Gedalia hoi ma Mizepa, a me ko Kaledea i loaa ia ia malaila, o na kanaka kaua hoi.

Then Ishmael killed all the Judeans who were with Gedaliah in Mizpah and the Chaldean fighting men found there.

4 A i ka lua o ka la mahope iho o kona pepehi ana ia Gedalia, aole kanaka i ike,

Then it was the second day after the killing of Gedaliah, but no one knew.

5 Alaila, hele mai la kekahi mau kanaka, mai Sekema, a mai Silo, a mai Samaria mai, he kanawalu lakou, ua kahi ko lakou nmiumi, ua haehaeia ko lakou aahu, ua okioki ia lakou iho: he mau mohai, a he mea ala ma ko lakou lima e lawe i ka hale o Iehova.

Some men came from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria—eighty men who had shaved their beard, torn their clothes, and cut themselves—with food offerings and frankincense in their hands to go to Yahweh's house.

6 A hele aku la o Isemaela, ke keiki a Netania, mai Mizepa aku, e halawai me lakou, a uwe no hoi i kona hele ana; a i kona halawai ana me lakou, i ae la ia ia lakou, E hele mai ia Gedalia, i ke keiki a Ahikama.

So Ishmael son of Nethaniah went out from Mizpah to meet them as they went, walking and weeping. Then it happened that as he encountered them, he said to them, “Come to Gedaliah son of Ahikam!”

7 A ia lakou i hele ai iloko o ke kulauakauhale, Pepehi aku la o Isemaela ke keiki a Netania ia lakou, a hoolei aku la iloko o ka lua, oia, a me na kanaka pu me ia.

It came about that when they came into the city, Ishmael son of Nethaniah slaughtered them and threw them into a pit, he and the men who were with him.

8 A loaa iwaena o lakou, he umi kanaka, i mai la lakou ia Isemaela, Mai pepehi ia makou; no ka mea, he waiwai ko makou ma ka papu, he huapalaoa, he huabale, a he aila, a he meli. Nolaila, oki iho la oia, aole i pepehi pu ia lakou me ko lakou poe hoahanau.

But there were ten men among them who said to Ishmael, “Do not kill us, for there are provisions of ours in a field: Wheat and barley, oil and honey.” So he did not kill them with their other companions.

9 O ka lua, kahi o Isemaela i hoolei ai i na kupapau a pau o na kanaka ana i pepehi aku ai me Gedalia, oia ka mea a Asa ke alii i hana'i no ka makau ia Baasa, ke alii o ka Iseraela; a hoopiha iho la o Isemaela ke keiki o Netania ia wahi i ka poe i make.

The cistern where Ishmael threw all the dead bodies that he had killed, was a large cistern that King Asa dug to make a defense against King Baasha of Israel. Ishmael son of Nethaniah filled it in with the dead.

10 Alaila, lawepio aku la o Isemaela i ke koena a pau o na kanaka ma Mizepa, i na kaikamahine a ke alii, a me na kanaka a pau i koe ma Mizepa, ka poe a Nebuzaredana, ka lunakaua i haawi ai ia Gedalia, ke keiki a Ahikama; lawepio aku la o Isemaela ke keiki a Netania ia lakou, a hele aku la, i hiki i ka Amona.

Next Ishmael captured all the other people who were in Mizpah, the king's daughters and all the people who were left in Mizpah whom Nebuzaradan the chief guard had assigned to Gedaliah son of Ahikam. So Ishmael son of Nethaniah captured them and went to cross over to the people of Ammon.

11 A lohe o Iohanana, ke keiki a Karea, a me na luna a pau o na koa me ia, i ka hewa a pau a Isemaela ke keiki a Netania i hana'i,

But Johanan son of Kareah and all the army commanders with him heard of all the harm that Ishmael son of Nethaniah had done.

12 Alaila, lawe ae la ia i na kanaka a pau, a hele aku la, e kaua me Isemaela, i ke keiki a Netania, a loaa oia ma na wai nui ma Gibeona.

So they took all their men and went to fight against Ishmael son of Nethaniah. They found him at the great pool of Gibeon.

13 A hiki i ka manawa a na kanaka a pau me Isemaela i ike mai ai ia Iohanana, i ke keiki a Karea, a me na luna a pau o na koa me ia, alaila, olioli iho la lakou.

Then it happened that when all the people who were with Ishmael saw Johanan son of Kareah and all the army commanders who were with him, they were very happy.

14 O na kanaka a pau a Isemaela i lawepio ai, huli lakou, a hoi, a hele ia Iohanana i ke keiki a Karea.

So all the people whom Ishmael had captured at Mizpah turned around and went to Johanan son of Kareah.

15 Pakele aku la o Isemaela ke keiki a Netania mai Iohanana aku, oia a me na kanaka ewalu i hele pu me ia i ka Amona.

But Ishmael son of Nethaniah fled with eight men from Johanan. He went to the people of Ammon.

16 Alaila, lawe o Iohanana, ke keiki a Karea a me na luna a pau o na koa me ia, i ke koena a pau o na kanaka i loaa ia ia ma Mizepa mai Isemaela mai, ke keiki a Netania mai, mahope iho o kona pepehi ana ia Gedalia, i ke keiki a Ahika ma, o na kanaka kaua a me na wahine, a me na Keiki, a me ua mea i poaia, ka poe ana i lawe ae ai, mai Gibeona mai;

Johanan son of Kareah and all the army commanders with him took from Mizpah all the people who had been rescued from Ishmael son of Nethaniah. This was after Ishmael had killed Gedaliah son of Ahikam. Johanan and his companions took the strong men, the fighting men, the women and children, and the eunuchs who had been rescued at Gibeon.

17 A hele aku la lakou, a noho ma kahi noho o Kimehama, aia kokoke i Betelehema, ma ke ala e komo aku ai i Aigupita,

Then they went and stayed for a while in Geruth Kimham, which is near Bethlehem. They were going to go to Egypt

18 No ko Kaledea; no ka mea, ua makau ia lakou, no ko Isemaela, ke keiki a Netania pepehi ana ia Gedalia, i ke keiki a Ahikama, ka mea a ke alii o Babulona i hoonoho ai i kiaaina no ia aina.

because of the Chaldeans. They were afraid of them since Ishmael son of Nethaniah had killed Gedaliah son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had put in charge of the land.
