Jeremias 41

1 Sucedeu, porém, no mês sétimo, que veio Ishmael, filho de Nethanias, filho de Elisama, de sangue real, e os capitães do rei, a saber, dez homens com ele, a Gedalias, filho de Ahicam, a Mizpah; e comeram ali pão juntamente em Mizpah.

Now it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah the son of Elishama, of the seed royal, and the princes of the king, even ten men with him, came to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and there they did eat bread together in Mizpah.

2 E levantou-se Ishmael, filho de Nethanias, com os dez homens que estavam com ele, e feriram a Gedalias, filho de Ahicam, filho de Saphan, à espada; e matou aquele que o rei de Babilônia havia posto sobre a terra.

Then arose Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and the ten men that were with him, and smote Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan with the sword, and slew him, whom the king of Babylon had made governor over the land.

3 Também feriu Ishmael a todos os judeus que havia com ele, com Gedalias, em Mizpah, como também aos caldeus, homens de guerra, que se acharam ali.

Ishmael also slew all the Jews that were with him, even with Gedaliah, at Mizpah, and the Chaldeans that were found there, and the men of war.

4 Sucedeu pois no dia seguinte, depois que matara a Gedalias, e sem ninguém o saber,

And it came to pass the second day after he had slain Gedaliah, and no man knew it,

5 Que vieram homens de Sichem, de Silo, e de Samaria; oitenta homens, com a barba rapada, e os vestidos rasgados, e sarjando-se; e traziam nas suas mãos ofertas de manjares e incenso, para levarem à casa do Senhor.

That there came certain from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, even fourscore men, having their beards shaven, and their clothes rent, and having cut themselves, with offerings and incense in their hand, to bring them to the house of the LORD.

6 E, saindo-lhes ao encontro Ishmael, filho de Nethanias, desde Mizpah, ia chorando; e sucedeu que, encontrando-os, lhes disse: Vinde a Gedalias, filho de Ahicam.

And Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went forth from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went: and it came to pass, as he met them, he said to them, Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam.

7 Sucedeu, porém, que, entrando eles até ao meio da cidade, matou-os Ishmael, filho de Nethanias, e os lançou no meio de um poço, ele e os homens que estavam com ele.

And it was so, when they came into the middle of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah slew them, and cast them into the middle of the pit, he, and the men that were with him.

8 Mas acharam-se entre eles dez homens que disseram a Ishmael: Não nos mates a nós; porque temos no campo tesouros escondidos, trigo e cevada, e azeite e mel. E os deixou, e não os matou entre seus irmãos.

But ten men were found among them that said to Ishmael, Slay us not: for we have treasures in the field, of wheat, and of barley, and of oil, and of honey. So he declined, and slew them not among their brothers.

9 E o poço em que Ishmael lançou todos os cadáveres dos homens que feriu por causa de Gedalias é o mesmo que fez o rei Asa, por causa de Baasa, rei de Israel: a este encheu de mortos Ishmael, filho de Nethanias.

Now the pit wherein Ishmael had cast all the dead bodies of the men, whom he had slain because of Gedaliah, was it which Asa the king had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with them that were slain.

10 E Ishmael levou cativo a todo o resto do povo que estava em Mizpah; as filhas do rei, e todo o povo que restou em Mizpah, que Nebuzaradan, capitão da guarda, havia encarregado a Gedalias, filho de Ahicam; e levou-os cativos Ishmael, filho de Nethanias, e foi-se para passar aos filhos de Ammon.

Then Ishmael carried away captive all the residue of the people that were in Mizpah, even the king’s daughters, and all the people that remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had committed to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah carried them away captive, and departed to go over to the Ammonites.

11 Ouvindo pois Johanan, filho de Careah, e todos os príncipes dos exércitos que havia com ele, todo o mal que havia feito Ishmael, filho de Nethanias,

But when Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, heard of all the evil that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had done,

12 Tomaram todos os seus homens, e foram pelejar contra Ishmael, filho de Nethanias: e acharam-no ao pé das muitas águas que há em Gibeon.

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 E aconteceu que, vendo todo o povo, que estava com Ishmael, a Johanan filho de Careah, e a todos os príncipes dos exércitos, que vinham com ele, se alegrou.

Now it came to pass, that when all the people which were with Ishmael saw Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, then they were glad.

14 E todo o povo que Ishmael levara cativo de Mizpah virou as costas, e voltou, e foi para Johanan, filho de Careah.

So all the people that Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah cast about and returned, and went to Johanan the son of Kareah.

15 Porém Ishmael, filho de Nethanias, escapou com oito homens de diante de Johanan, e se foi para os filhos de Ammon.

But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the Ammonites.

16 Então tomou Johanan, filho de Careah, e todos os príncipes dos exércitos que havia com ele, a todo o resto do povo que ele havia recobrado de Ishmael, filho de Nethanias, desde Mizpah, depois de haver ferido a Gedalias, filho de Ahicam, aos homens valentes de guerra, e às mulheres, e aos meninos, e aos eunucos que havia recobrado de Gibeon,

Then took Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, from Mizpah, after that he had slain Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, even mighty men of war, and the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought again from Gibeon:

17 E foram, e moraram na habitação de Geruth-chimham, que está perto de Beth-lehem, para se irem e entrarem no Egito,

And they departed, and dwelled in the habitation of Chimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt,

18 Por causa dos caldeus; porque os temiam, por haver ferido Ishmael, filho de Nethanias, a Gedalias, filho de Ahicam, a quem o rei de Babilônia tinha posto sobre a terra.

Because of the Chaldeans: for they were afraid of them, because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had slain Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon made governor in the land.
