Книга пророка Иеремии 41
1 И бысть в седмый месяц, прииде Исмаил сын Нафаниин сына Елисамова, от рода царева, и вельможи царевы десять мужей с ним ко Годолии в Массифаф, и ядоша ту вкупе хлеб.
Now it happened in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the royal family 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 И воста Исмаил и десять мужей иже с ним, и поразиша Годолию мечем, и убиша, егоже постави царь Вавилонский над землею,
Then arose Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, 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 и всех Иудеев, иже беша с ним в Массифафе, и всех Халдеев, иже обретошася тамо, и мужей военных изби Исмаил.
Ishmael also killed all the Jews who were with him, with Gedaliah, at Mizpah, and the Chaldeans who were found there, the men of war.
4 И бысть во вторый день по убиении Годолиеве, и человек не уведе.
It happened the second day after he had killed Gedaliah, and no man knew it,
5 И приидоша мужие от Сихема и от Салима и от Самарии осмьдесят мужей, обритыми брадами и растерзаными ризами, плачущеся, и дары и фимиам в руку их, еже внести в дом Господень.
that there came men 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 the house of Jehovah.
6 И изыде противу им Исмаил сын Нафаниев от Массифы: тии же идяху и плакахуся: и егда сретеся с ними, рече к ним: внидите ко Годолии.
Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went forth from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went: and it happened, as he met them, he said to them, "Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam."
7 И бысть, вшедшым им среде града, изсече я Исмаил у кладязя, той и мужие, иже беша с ним.
It was so, when they came into the midst of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah killed them, and cast them into the midst of the pit, he, and the men who were with him.
8 И обретошася десять мужей ту и реша Исмаилу: не убий нас, яко суть нам имения на нивах, пшеница и ячмень, и мед и масло. И мину их и не уби их посреде братий их.
But ten men were found among those who said to Ishmael, "Do not 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 did not kill them among their brothers.
9 И кладязь, в оньже вверже Исмаил вся, яже изби, сей кладязь велик есть, егоже сотвори царь Аса, от лица Ваасы царя Израилева, сей наполни Исмаил убиенными.
Now the pit in which Ishmael cast all the dead bodies of the men whom he had killed was a large one that King Asa had constructed in the encounter with Baasha king of Israel. Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with those who were killed.
10 И обрати Исмаил вся люди оставшыя в Массифафе и дщери царевы, яже вручил архимагир Годолии сыну Ахикамову, и взя их Исмаил сын Нафань: и отиде на ону страну сынов Аммоних.
Then Ishmael carried away captive all the residue of the people who were 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 people of Ammon.
11 И слыша Иоанан сын Кариев и вси воеводы силы, иже с ним, вся злая, яже сотвори Исмаил сын Нафаниев,
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 и приведоша вся воя своя и идяху воевати нань, и обретоша его при воде мнозе во Гаваоне.
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 И бысть, егда увидеша вси людие, иже со Исмаилом, Иоанана сына Кариева и вся воеводы силы, иже быша с ним, возрадовашася:
Now it happened that, 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 и возвратишася вси людие, ихже плени Исмаил от Массифы, и возвратившеся отидоша ко Иоанану сыну Кариеву.
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 Исмаил же уцеле со осмию мужи от лица Иоананя и иде ко сыном Аммоним.
But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the people of Ammon.
16 И взя Иоанан и вси воеводы силы, иже с ним, вся оставшыяся люди, ихже возврати от Исмаила сына Нафаня из Массифафа, повнегда уби Годолию, сына Ахикамля, мужы сильны на рати, и жены, и останки, и каженики, ихже обрати от Гаваона,
Then took Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who 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 killed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the men of war, and the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought back from Gibeon:
17 и идоша, и седоша на земли Вирофоамли, яже ко Вифлеему, еже ити и внити во Египет от лица Халдейска: понеже убояшася от лица их:
and they departed, and lived in Geruth Kimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt,
18 яко уби Исмаил Годолию, егоже постави царь Вавилонский на земли Иудине.
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.
