Jeremia 41

1 Ary tamin’ ny volana fahafito dia tonga tany amin’ i Gedalia, zanak’ i Ahikama, tao Mizpa Isimaela, zanak’ i Netania, zanak’ i Elisama, taranaky ny mpanjaka, sy ny mpanapaky ny mpanjaka; ary nisy folo lahy niaraka taminy; ary niara-nihinan-kanina tao Mizpa izy.

Now it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethanyah the son of Elishama', of the royal seed, and the chiefs of the king, even ten men with him, came unto Gedalyahu the son of Achikam to Mizpah; and they ate there bread together in Mizpah.

2 Dia nitsangana Isimaela, zanak’ i Netania, sy ireo olona folo lahy niaraka taminy ka namely sabatra an’ i Gedalia, zanak’ i Ahikama, zanak’ i Safana, dia nahafaty ilay efa nataon’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona ho mpanapaka ny tany.

Then arose Ishmael the son of Nethanyah, and the ten men that were with him, and smote Gedalyahu the son of Achikam the son of Shaphan with the sword, and put to death him, whom the king of Babylon had appointed governor over the land.

3 Ary ny Jiosy rehetra izay tao aminy, dia izay tao amin’ i Gedalia tao Mizpa, sy ny Kaldeana izay hita tao ary ny miaramila dia novonoin’ Isimaela avokoa.

And all the Jews that were with him, even with Gedalyahu, at Mizpah, and the Chaldeans that were found there, even the men of war, did Ishmael slay.

4 Ary nony ampitson’ ny andro namonoana an’ i Gedalia, raha tsy mbola nisy olona nahalala izany,

And it came to pass on the second day after he had put Gedalyahu to death, while no man knew of it,

5 dia nisy valo-polo lahy avy tany Sekema sy Silo ary Samaria, izay samy mihara-bolom-bava, sady voatriatra ny fitafiany, ary voatetika ny tenany, nitondra fanatitra sy ditin-kazo mani-pofona teny an-tànany ho entina ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah.

That there came certain men from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, eighty men [in all], having their beards shaven, and their clothes rent, and having cut themselves, with meat-offerings and frankincense in their hand, to bring the same to the house of the Lord.

6 Ary Isimaela, zanak’ i Netania, dia nivoaka avy tao Mizpa hitsena azy sady nitomany teny am-pandehanana, ary nony efa nihaona taminy izy, dia niteny taminy hoe: Mankanesa any amin’ i Gedalia, zanak’ i Ahikama.

And Ishmael the son of Nethanyah went forth from Mizpah to meet them, going along and weeping: and it came to pass as he met them, that he said unto them, Come to Gedalyahu the son of Achikam.

7 Ary nony tonga tao afovoan’ ny tanàna izy ireo, dia novonoin’ Isimaela, zanak’ i Netania, mbamin’ ny olona nanaraka azy izy ka nariany tao anaty lavaka famorian-drano.

And it happened, as they entered into the midst of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethanyah slaughtered them, [and cast them] into the midst of the cistern, he, and the men that were with him.

8 Fa nisy folo lahy tamin’ ireo nanao tamin’ Isimaela hoe: Aza vonoina izahay; fa manan-tahiry any an-tsaha izahay, dia vary tritika sy vary hordea sy diloilo ary tantely. Ka dia nijanona izy, fa tsy namono ireo tahaka ny efa nataony tamin’ ny namany.

But ten men were found among them that said unto Ishmael, Slay us not; for we have some things hidden in the field, [such as] wheat, and barley, and oil, and honey. So he forbore, and slew them not in the midst of their brethren.

9 Ary ilay lavaka nanarian’ Isimaela ny fatin’ ny olona rehetra, izay novonoiny ho eo anilan’ i Gedalia, dia ilay efa nataon’ i Asa mpanjaka mba hiereny an’ i Basa, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, dia nofenoin’ Isimaela, zanak’ i Netania, faty.

And the cistern wherein Ishmael cast all the corpses of the men, whom he had slain in company with Gedalyahu, is the same which king Assa had made on account of Ba'sha the king of Israel: this did Ishmael the son of Nethanyah fill with slain persons.

10 Ary nentin’ Isimaela ho babo ny olona rehetra izay sisa tao Mizpa, na ny vehivavy zanak’ andriana, na ny olona rehetra izay sisa tao Mizpa, izay napetrak’ i Nebozaradana, lehiben’ ny mpiambina, tao amin’ i Gedalia, zanak’ i Ahikama; eny, Isimaela, zanak’ i Netania, nitondra azy ireny ho babo, ka dia lasa niala nankany amin’ ny taranak’ i Amona izy.

Then did Ishmael carry away captive all the residue of the people that were in Mizpah, the king's daughters, and all the people that were remaining in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had entrusted to Gedalyahu the son of Achikam: and Ishmael the son of Nethanyah carried them away captive, and went off to pass over to the children of Ammon.

11 Fa nony ren’ i Johanana, zanak’ i Karea, sy ny mpifehy ny miaramila rehetra izay tao aminy ny ratsy rehetra nataon’ Isimaela, zanak’ i Netania,

But when Jochanan the son of Kareach, and all the captains of the armies that were with him, heard of all the evil that Ishmael the son of Nethanyah had done:

12 dia novoriny ny olona rehetra ka nentiny niady tamin’ Isimaela, zanak’ i Netania ary hitany teo amoron’ ny kamory ao Gibeona izy.

Then did they take all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethanyah, and found him by the great water[-pool] that is near Gib'on.

13 Ary ny olona rehetra izay tao amin’ Isimaela, nony nahita an’ i Johanana, zanak’ i Karea, sy ny mpifehy ny miaramila rehetra izay tao aminy, dia faly.

And it came to pass, when all the people who were with Ishmael saw Jochanan the son of Kareach, and all the captains of the armies that were with him, that they were rejoiced.

14 Ary ny olona rehetra izay nentin’ Isimaela ho babo avy tany Mizpa dia nitodika ka niverina nanatona an’ i Johanana, zanak’ i Karea.

And all the people that Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah turned about and returned, and went unto Jochanan the son of Kareach.

15 Fa Isimaela, zanak’ i Netania, sy ny olona valo lahy kosa dia afaka nandositra an’ i Johanana ka lasa nankany amin’ ny taranak’ i Amona.

But Ishmael the son of Nethanyah escaped with eight men from the presence of Jochanan, and he went to the children of 'Ammon.

16 Ary Johanana, zanak’ i Karea, sy ny mpifehy ny miaramila rehetra izay tao aminy dia nitondra ny olona rehetra izay voavonjiny ho afaka tamin’ Isimaela, zanak’ i Netania, avy tany Mizpa, taorian’ ny namonoany an’ i Gedalia, zanak’ i Ahikama, dia ny lehilahy mpiady sy ny zaza amim-behivavy ary ny tandapa, izay nentiny niverina avy tany Gibeona;

Then took Jochanan the son of Kareach, and all the captains of the armies that were with him, all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethanyah, from Mizpah, after he had slain Gedalyah the son of Achikam, the adult males, the men of war, and the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought back from Gib'on;

17 ary dia lasa izy ireo ka nitoetra tao Gerota-kimama, izay ao akaikin’ i Betlehema, mba handehanany hankany Egypta.

And they went, and remained in Geruth-Kimham, which is by Beth-lechem, to go to enter into Egypt,

18 tsy ho tratry ny Kaldeana; fa natahotra azy izy, satria Isimaela, zanak’ i Netania, efa namono an’ i Gedalia, zanak’ i Ahikama, izay notendren’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona ho mpanapaka ny tany.

Because of the Chaldeans; for they were afraid of them; because Ishmael the son of Nethanyah had slain Gedalyahu the son of Achikam, whom the king of Babylon had appointed governor over the land.
