< Jeremia 41 >

1 Ie amy volam-paha-fitoy, le nivo­trak’ amy Gedalia ana’ i Ahikame e Mitspà ao t’Ismaele ana’ i Netania, ana’ i Elisama tirim-panjaka, ie mpiamo roandria’ i mpanjakaio, reketse ty lahilahy folo, vaho nitrao-pikama e Mitspa ao.
Now in the seventh month, Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the royal offspring and one of the chief officers of the king, and ten men with him, came to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and there they ate bread together in Mizpah.
2 Niongak’ amy zao t’Ismaele ana’ i Netania naho i folo lahy nindre ama’e rey, vaho linihi’ iereo fibara t’i Gedalia ana’ i Ahikame, ana’ i Safane; vinono iereo i noriza’ i mpanjaka’ i Baveley ho mpifehe’ i taneiy.
Then Ishmael the son of Nethaniah arose, and the ten men who were with him, and struck Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan with the sword and killed him, whom the king of Babylon had made governor over the land.
3 Zinama’ Ismaele ka ze nte-Iehodà mpiama’e ao, o niharo amy Gedalia e Mitspào naho o nte-Kasdy nizoeñeo, o lahin-defoñeo.
Ishmael also killed all the Jews who were with Gedaliah at Mizpah, and the Chaldean men of war who were found there.
4 Ie herone amy namonoa’e i Gedaliay, ie tsy eo ty naharendreke,
The second day after he had killed Gedaliah, and no man knew it,
5 le totsake eo t’ indaty valompolo boake Sekeme naho boake Silò naho hirike Somerone, an-tanteahetse hinaratse naho sikiñe riniatse, vaho an-tsandriñe linililily, ninday enga mahakama naho embok’ am-pitàñe homb’añ’anjomba’ Iehovà mb’eo.
men came from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, even eighty men, having their beards shaved and their clothes torn, and having cut themselves, with meal offerings and frankincense in their hand, to bring them to Yahweh’s house.
6 Aa le niavotse i Mitspà t’Ismaele ana’ i Netania hifanalaka am’ iereo, nangololoike ty rovetse t’ie nañavelo mb’eo; ie nigadoñe am’ iereo, le hoe ty asa’e ama’e: Antao homb’e Gedalia ana’ i Ahikame mb’eo.
Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went out from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went, and as he met them, he said to them, “Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam.”
7 Aa ie naneñateña i rovay le zinama’ Ismaele ana’ i Netania rekets’ o mpi­ama’eo vaho namokovoko iareo am-po kadaha ao.
It was so, when they came into the middle of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah killed them, and cast them into the middle of the pit, he, and the men who were with him.
8 Fe nizoeñe am’ iereo t’indaty folo nanao ty hoe amy Ismaele, Ko avetra’o fa aman-kaja mikafitse an-tonda ao, ty vare-bolè, naho ampemba, naho menake vaho tantele. Aa le napo’e, tsy vinono’e miharo amo rolongo’eo.
But ten men were found among those who said to Ishmael, “Don’t kill us; for we have stores hidden in the field, of wheat, and of barley, and of oil, and of honey.” So he stopped, and didn’t kill them among their brothers.
9 I kadaha najorobo’ Ismaele i lolo amy Gedalia rezay le ty nanoe’ i Asa mpanjaka ty amy Baasa mpanjaka’ Israeley; le natsafe’ Ismaele ana’ i Netania ama’e ao o vinonoo.
Now the pit in which Ishmael cast all the dead bodies of the men whom he had killed, by the side of Gedaliah (this was that which Asa the king had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel), Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with those who were killed.
10 Le fonga nendese’ Ismaele an-drohy añe ty sehanga’ ondaty e Mitspà ao, o anak’ ampela’ i mpanjakaio naho ze kila ondaty nengañe e Mitspà ao, o nafanto’ i Nebozaradene mpifehe mpigaritse amy Gedalia, ana’ i Ahikame; aa le nasese’ Ismaele ana’ i Natania an-drohy vaho nienga hitsake mb’amo ana’ i Amaneo añe.
Then Ishmael carried away captive all of the people who were left in Mizpah, even the king’s daughters, and all the people who remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had committed to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam. Ishmael the son of Nethaniah carried them away captive, and departed to go over to the children of Ammon.
11 Aa ie jinanji’ Iohanane ana’ i Karea naho o mpifehen-dahindefo mpiama’eo ty halò-tsereke nanoe’ Ismaele ana’ i Netania,
But when Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, heard of all the evil that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had done,
12 le nendese’iereo o lahilahy iabio naho nionjoñe mb’eo hifangantotse am’Ismaele ana’ i Netania, vaho nitendrek’ ama’e an-drano-bey e Gibone eo.
then they took all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and found him by the great waters that are in Gibeon.
13 Le ie niisa’ o hene ondaty nindre am’ Ismaeleo t’Ioha­nane ana’ i Karea, naho o mpifehe lahin-defoñe nindre ama’eo, le nifale,
Now when all the people who were with Ishmael saw Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, then they were glad.
14 naho songa niamboho vaho niveve mb’ am’ Iohanane ana’ i Karea mb’eo ondaty nasese’ Ismaele an-drohy boake Mitspào.
So all the people who Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah turned about and came back, and went to Johanan the son of Kareah.
15 Fe niborafitse am’ Iehonane t’Ismaele ana’ i Netania reketse ty ondaty valo, nimb’ amo ana’ i Amoneo mb’eo.
But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the children of Ammon.
16 Aa le nendese’ Iohanane, ana’ i Ka­rea, naho ze hene mpifehe lahin-defoñe nindre ama’e, ty sisa’ ondaty rinambe’e am’Ismaele ana’ i Netania, boak’e Mitspàao—ie fa vinono’e t’i Gedalia ana’ i Ahikame naho o mpiama’eo—o lahilahio naho o lahindefoñeo naho o rakembao, naho o ajajao, naho o vositse nendese’e boake Giboneo,
Then Johanan the son of Kareah and all the captains of the forces who were with him took all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, from Mizpah, after he had killed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam—the men of war, with the women, the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought back from Gibeon.
17 le nienga, vaho nañialo an-kialo’ i Kimhame marine i Betlekheme añe, hiavotse mb’e Mitsraime añe,
They departed and lived in Geruth Chimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt
18 ty amo nte-Kasdio, amy t’ie nihembaña’ iereo, ty amy namonoa’ Ismaele ana’ i Netania t’i Gedalia ana’ i Ahikame, i nampifelehe’ i mpanjaka’ i Baveley i taneiy.
because of the Chaldeans; for they were afraid of them, because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had killed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon made governor over the land.
