Jeremias 41

1 Nangyari nga, nang ikapitong buwan, na si Ismael na anak ni Nethanias, na anak ni Elisama, na lahing hari, at isa sa mga punong oficial ng hari, at sangpung lalake na kasama niya, ay nagsiparoon kay Gedalias na anak ni Ahicam sa Mizpa; at doo'y magkasama silang nagsikain ng tinapay sa Mizpa.

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 Nang magkagayo'y tumindig si Ismael na anak ni Nethanias, at ang sangpung lalake na kasama niya, at sinugatan ng tabak, si Gedalias na anak ni Ahicam na anak ni Saphan, at pinatay siya, na ginawang tagapamahala sa lupain ng hari sa Babilonia.

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 Pinatay rin naman ni Ismael ang lahat na Judio na kasama niya, na kasama ni Gedalias, sa Mizpa, at ang mga Caldeo na nangasumpungan doon, sa makatuwid baga'y ang mga lalaking mangdidigma.

Ishmael also killed all the Jews who were with Gedaliah at Mizpah, and the Chaldean men of war who were found there.

4 At nangyari, nang ikalawang araw, pagkatapos na kaniyang mapatay si Gedalias, at wala pang lalaking nakakaalam,

The second day after he had killed Gedaliah, and no man knew it,

5 Na nagsiparoon ang mga lalake na mula sa Sichem, mula sa Silo, at mula sa Samaria, sa makatuwid baga'y walong pung lalake, na may mga ahit na balbas at may mga hapak na kasuutan, at may mga kudlit, may mga alay at mga kamangyan sa kanilang kamay, upang dalhin sa bahay ng Panginoon.

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 At si Ismael na anak ni Nethanias ay lumabas na mula sa Mizpa upang salubungin sila, na umiiyak siya habang lumalakad: at nangyari, pagkasalubong niya sa kanila, sinabi niya sa kanila, Magsiparoon kayo kay Gedalias na anak ni Ahicam.

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 At nangyari, na nang sila'y pumasok sa gitna ng bayan, na pinatay sila ni Ismael na anak ni Nethanias at inihagis sila sa hukay, niya at ng mga lalake na kasama niya.

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 Nguni't sangpung lalake ay nangasumpungan sa kanila na nangagsabi kay Ismael, Huwag mo kaming patayin; sapagka't kami ay may mga kayamanan na kubli sa parang, na trigo, at cebada, at langis, at pulot. Sa gayo'y nagpigil siya, at hindi niya pinatay sila sa gitna ng kanilang mga kapatid.

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 Ang hukay nga na pinagtapunan ni Ismael ng lahat ng bangkay ng mga tao na kaniyang pinatay, sa siping ni Gedalias, (siya ring ginawa ni Asa na hari dahil sa takot kay Baasa na hari sa Israel), pinuno ni Ismael na anak ni Nethanias ng nangapatay.

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 Nang magkagayo'y dinalang bihag ni Ismael ang lahat na nangalabi sa bayan na nangasa Mizpa, sa makatuwid baga'y ang mga anak na babae ng hari, at ang buong bayan na nalabi sa Mizpa, na siyang mga ibinilin ni Nabuzaradan na kapitan ng bantay kay Gedalias na anak ni Ahicam; sila'y dinalang bihag ni Ismael na anak ni Nethanias, at nagpatuloy na yumaon sa mga anak ni Ammon.

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 Nguni't nang mabalitaan ni Johanan na anak ni Carea, at ng lahat na kapitan sa mga kawal na kasama niya, ang buong kasamaan na ginawa ni Ismael na anak ni Nethanias,

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 Ipinagsama nga nila ang lahat na lalake, at sila'y nagsiyaong lumaban kay Ismael na anak ni Nethanias, at nasumpungan nila siya sa tabi ng malaking bukal na nasa Gabaon.

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 Nangyari nga, nang makita ng buong bayan na kasama ni Ismael si Johanan na anak ni Carea at ang lahat ng kapitan sa mga kawal na kasama niya, sila nga'y nangatuwa.

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 Sa gayo'y ang buong bayan na dinalang bihag ni Ismael na mula sa Mizpa, ay pumihit at bumalik, at naparoon kay Johanan na anak ni Carea.

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 Nguni't si Ismael na anak ni Nethanias ay tumanan mula kay Johanan na kasama ng walong lalake, at naparoon sa mga anak ni Ammon.

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

16 Nang magkagayo'y kinuha ni Johanan na anak ni Carea at ng lahat ng kapitan sa mga kawal na kasama niya, ang lahat na nalabi sa bayan na kaniyang nabawi kay Ismael na anak ni Nethanias, mula sa Mizpa, pagkatapos na kaniyang mapatay si Gedalias na anak ni Ahicam, sa makatuwid ang mga lalaking magdidigma, at ang mga babae, at ang mga bata, at ang mga bating, na kaniyang mga ibinalik mula sa Gabaon;

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 At sila'y nagsiyaon at nagsitahan sa Geruth chimham, na malapit sa Bethlehem upang pumaroong masok sa Egipto.

They departed and lived in Geruth Chimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt

18 Dahil sa mga Caldeo; sapagka't sila'y nangatakot sa kanila, sapagka't pinatay ni Ismael na anak ni Nethanias si Gedalias na anak ni Ahicam, na ginawang tagapamahala sa lupain ng hari sa Babilonia.

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.
