Jeremi 41

1 Na sanza ya sambo, Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania mpe koko ya Elishama, oyo azalaki na molongo ya libota ya bokonzi mpe moko kati na bakengeli ya mokonzi, ayaki elongo na basoda zomi epai ya Gedalia, mwana mobali ya Ayikami, na Mitsipa. Wana bazalaki kolia na Mitsipa,

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 Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania, elongo na basoda wana zomi oyo bazalaki elongo na ye babomaki na mopanga Gedalia, mwana mobali ya Ayikami, mwana mobali ya Shafani, oyo mokonzi ya Babiloni akomisaki moyangeli kati na mokili.

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 Isimaeli abomaki lisusu Bayuda oyo bazalaki elongo na Gedalia, na Mitsipa, elongo na basoda ya Babiloni oyo bazalaki wana.

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

4 Mokolo oyo elandaki kufa ya Gedalia, liboso ete sango eyebana epai ya bato,

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

5 bato tuku mwambe bawutaki na Sishemi, na Silo mpe na Samari; bazalaki na mandefu bakata, bilamba epasuka-pasuka, mpe bamizokisaki-zokisaki bapota na banzoto. Bamemaki makabo ya bagato mpe malasi ya ansa mpo na kobonza yango kati na Tempelo ya Yawe.

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 Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania, abimaki na Mitsipa mpo na kokende kokutana na bango; wana azalaki kokende kokutana na bango, azalaki kolela nzela-nzela. Bongo tango akutanaki na bango, alobaki na bango: — Boya kotala Gedalia, mwana mobali ya Ayikami!

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 Tango bakotaki kati na engumba, Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania, mpe bato oyo bazalaki elongo na ye babomaki bango mpe babwakaki bango na libulu.

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 Kasi bato zomi kati na bango balobaki na Isimaeli: — Koboma biso te! Tozali na ble, na orje, na mafuta mpe na mafuta ya nzoyi, oyo tobombaki kati na bilanga. Boye, abomaki bango lisusu te, abikisaki bango elongo na bandeko na bango.

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 Libulu epai wapi Isimaeli abwakaki bato nyonso oyo abomaki ezalaki libulu ya Gedalia, libulu oyo mokonzi Asa asalaki mpo na komibatela liboso ya Baesha, mokonzi ya Isalaele. Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania, atondisaki yango na bibembe;

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 bongo akomisaki bato nyonso oyo batikalaki na Mitsipa bawumbu: bana basi ya mokonzi mpe bato mosusu oyo batikalaki kuna na Mitsipa, oyo Nebuzaradani, mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi, atiaki na se ya bokonzi ya Gedalia, mwana mobali ya Ayikami. Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania, amemaki bato oyo amemaki bango lokola bawumbu kati na mokili ya bato ya Amoni.

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 Tango Yoanani, mwana mobali ya Karea, mpe bakonzi nyonso ya basoda, oyo bazalaki elongo na ye bayokaki sango ya makambo mabe oyo Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania, asalaki,

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 basangisaki bato na bango nyonso mpe bakendeki kobundisa Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania; bakutanaki na ye pene ya liziba monene ya Gabaoni.

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 Tango bawumbu nyonso oyo Isimaeli akangaki bamonaki Yoanani, mwana mobali ya Karea, mpe bakonzi nyonso ya basoda, oyo bazalaki elongo na ye, batondisamaki na esengo makasi;

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 mpe bato nyonso oyo Isimaeli amemaki lokola bawumbu, na Mitsipa, babalukaki mpe bakendeki kosangana na Yoanani, mwana mobali ya Karea.

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

15 Kasi Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania, mpe bato mwambe oyo bazalaki elongo na ye babikaki na maboko ya Yoanani mpe bakimaki epai ya bato ya Amoni.

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

16 Sima na yango, Yoanani, mwana mobali ya Karea, mpe bakonzi nyonso ya basoda oyo bazalaki elongo na ye bamemaki bato nyonso ya Mitsipa oyo babikaki, oyo Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania, amemaki na bowumbu wuta na Mitsipa sima na ye koboma Gedalia, mwana mobali ya Ayikami: basoda, basi, bana mpe bakalaka ya lokumu ya mokonzi; elingi koloba bato nyonso oyo azongisaki wuta na Gabaoni.

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 Bakobaki nzela na bango mpe batelemaki na molako ya Kimeami, pene ya Beteleemi, mpo ete bazalaki na posa ya kokende na Ejipito

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

18 mpo na kokima bato ya Babiloni, pamba te bazalaki kobanga bango; mpe mpo ete Isimaeli, mwana mobali ya Netania, abomaki Gedalia, mwana mobali ya Ayikami, oyo mokonzi ya Babiloni akomisaki moyangeli ya mokili.

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.
