Jeremia 41
1 Men i sjunde månadenom kom Ismael, Nethanja son, Elisama sons, af Konungsligo slägt, samt med Konungens öfverstar, och tio män med honom, till Gedalia, Ahikams son, i Mizpa, och der åto de tillhopa med hvarannan i Mizpa.
And it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the blood royal, and one of the great officers of the king, and ten men with him, came to Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, to Mizpah; and they ate bread there together in Mizpah.
2 Och Ismael, Nethanja son, stod upp, och de tio män som med honom voro, och slogo Gedalia, Ahikams son, Saphans sons, ihjäl med svärd, derföre att Konungen i Babel honom öfver hela landet satt hade.
Then Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, arose, 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 Dertill slog Ismael alla de Judar, som när Gedalia voro i Mizpa, och de Chaldeer som der funnos, och alla krigsmännerna.
And all the Jews that were with him, with Gedaliah at Mizpah, and the Chaldaeans that were found there, the men of war, did Ishmael smite.
4 Den andra dagen derefter, sedan Gedalia son var, och det ännu ingen visste,
And it came to pass, the second day after he had slain Gedaliah, and no man knew it,
5 Kommo åttatio män af Sichem, af Silo, och Samarien, och hade rakat af skägget, och sönderrifvit sin kläder, och sargat sig, och båro spisoffer och rökelse med sig, att de det skulle offra uti Herrans hus.
that there came certain men from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, fourscore persons, having their beards shaven, and their clothes rent, and having cut themselves, with an oblation and incense in their hands, to bring to the house of Jehovah.
6 Och Ismael, Nethanja son, gick ut ifrå Mizpa emot dem; gick och gret. Som han nu kom till dem, sade han till dem: I skolen komma till Gedalia, Ahikams son.
And Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, went forth from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went; and when he met them, he said to them, “Come ye to Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam.”
7 Men då de kommo midt in uti staden, drap dem Ismael, Nethanja son, och de män, som med honom voro, vid brunnen.
And when they had come into the midst of the city, Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, slew them, and cast them into the pit, he and the men that were with him.
8 Men der voro tio män ibland, de sade till Ismael: Käre, slå oss icke ihjäl; vi hafve ägodelar i åkrenom, af hvete, bjugg, oljo och hannog. Alltså höll han upp, och drap dem icke med de andra.
But ten men were found among them who said to Ishmael, “Slay us not, for we have hidden stores in the field, of wheat, and barley, and oil, and honey.” He forbore, therefore, and slew them not with their brethren.
9 Men brunnen, der Ismael de dödas kroppar uti kastade, som han slagit hade, samt med Gedalia, är den som Konung Asa göra lät emot Baesa, Israels Konung; honom uppfyllde nu Ismael, Nethanja son, med de slagna.
Now the pit into which Ishmael cast all the dead bodies of the men whom he slew, together with Gedaliah, is the same which King Asa made on account of Baasha, king of Israel; and Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, filled it with them that were slain.
10 Och det folk, som qvart var i Mizpa, och Konungens döttrar, förde Ismael, Nethanja son, bort för fångar, samt med allt det folk som igenlåtet var i Mizpa, öfver hvilka NebuzarAdan, höfvitsmannen, Gedalia, Ahikams son, satt hade, och drog bort, och ville öfver in till Ammons barn.
And Ishmael took captive all the residue of the people that were in Mizpah, the king's daughters, and all the people that remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, had committed to the charge of Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam; even Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, took them captive, and set forth to go over [[the Jordan]] to the children of Ammon.
11 Men då Johanan, Kareahs son, med alla de höfvitsmän som med honom voro, fingo veta allt det onda, som Ismael, Nethanja son, bedrifvit hade,
But when Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, heard of all the evil which Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, had done,
12 Togo de allt folket till sig, och drogo bort emot Ismael, Nethanja son, till strids, och kommo till honom vid det stora vattnet i Gibeon.
they took all the men, and went up to fight with Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, and came up with him at the great waters that are in Gibeon.
13 Då nu allt folket, som var med Ismael, sågo Johanan, Kareahs son, och alla de höfvitsmän som när honom voro, vordo de glade.
And 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, they were glad;
14 Och allt det folk, som Ismael hade bortfört ifrå Mizpa, vände tillbaka, och föllo intill Johanan, Kareahs son.
and all the people that Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah faced about and returned, and went to Johanan, the son of Kareah.
15 Men Ismael, Nethanja son, undkom Johanan med åtta män, och drog in till Ammons barn.
But Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the children of Ammon.
16 Och Johanan, Kareahs son, samt med alla höfvitsmännerna som med honom voro, toga allt det qvarblefna folket (som de igentagit hade ifrån Ismael, Nethanja son) af Mizpa till sig, efter det Gedalia, Ahikams son, slagen var, nämliga krigsmän, qvinnor och barn, och kamererare, som de af Gibeon igenhemtat hade;
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 he had slain Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, strong men, men of war, and women, and children, and eunuchs, whom he had brought back from Gibeon;
17 Och droga bortåt, och kommo till herberge till Chimham vid BethLehem, och ville draga in uti Egypten,
and they went, and tarried in the inn of Chimham, which is near Bethlehem, in order to flee into Egypt
18 För de Chaldeer; förty de fruktade sig för dem, efter Ismael, Nethanja son, hade dräpit Gedalia, Ahikams son, den Konungen i Babel öfver landet satt hade.
from the Chaldaeans; for they were afraid of them, because Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, had slain Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had made governor over the land.
