Jeremias 41

1 Ngunit nangyari na sa ikapitong buwan, si Ismael na anak ni Netanias na anak ni Elisama, mula sa maharlikang pamilya at ilan sa mga opisyal ng hari ay dumating kasama ang sampung lalaki kay Gedalias na anak ni Ahicam, sa Mizpa. Sama-sama silang kumain ng pagkain doon sa Mizpa.

Now it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethanyah the son of Elishama', of the royal seed, and the chiefs of the king, even ten men with him, came unto Gedalyahu the son of Achikam to Mizpah; and they ate there bread together in Mizpah.

2 Ngunit si Ismael na anak ni Netanias at ang sampung mga lalaki na kasama niya ay tumayo at sinalakay si Gedalias na anak ni Ahicam na anak ni Safan gamit ang espada. Pinatay ni Ismael si Gedalias na itinakda ng hari ng Babilonia na mangasiwa sa lupain.

Then arose Ishmael the son of Nethanyah, and the ten men that were with him, and smote Gedalyahu the son of Achikam the son of Shaphan with the sword, and put to death him, whom the king of Babylon had appointed governor over the land.

3 At pinatay lahat ni Ismael ang mga Judio na kasama ni Gedalias sa Mizpa at ang mga lalaking mandirigmang taga-Caldeo ang natagpuan doon.

And all the Jews that were with him, even with Gedalyahu, at Mizpah, and the Chaldeans that were found there, even the men of war, did Ishmael slay.

4 At ito ang ikalawang araw pagkatapos nang pagpatay kay Gedalias, ngunit walang sinuman ang nakaalam.

And it came to pass on the second day after he had put Gedalyahu to death, while no man knew of it,

5 May ilang lalaki ang dumating galing Shekem, galing sa Shilo, at galing sa Samaria—walumpung kalalakihan ang nag-ahit ng kanilang mga balbas, pinunit ang kanilang mga damit at sinugatan ang kanilang mga sarili—na may dalang mga pagkaing ihahandog at kamanyang sa kanilang mga kamay upang pumunta sa tahanan ni Yahweh.

That there came certain men from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, eighty men [in all], having their beards shaven, and their clothes rent, and having cut themselves, with meat-offerings and frankincense in their hand, to bring the same to the house of the Lord.

6 Kaya lumabas si Ismael na anak ni Netanias mula sa Mizpa upang salubungin sila habang naglalakad at umiiyak. At nangyari ito nang masalubong niya sila, sinabi niya sa kanila, “Pumunta kayo kay Gedalias na anak ni Ahicam!”

And Ishmael the son of Nethanyah went forth from Mizpah to meet them, going along and weeping: and it came to pass as he met them, that he said unto them, Come to Gedalyahu the son of Achikam.

7 Nangyari ito nang pagpasok nila sa lungsod, pinatay sila ni Ismael na anak ni Netanias at itinapon sila sa isang hukay, siya at ang mga kalalakihang kasama niya.

And it happened, as they entered into the midst of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethanyah slaughtered them, [and cast them] into the midst of the cistern, he, and the men that were with him.

8 Ngunit mayroong sampung kalalakihan na kasama nila ang nagsabi kay Ismael, “Huwag mo kaming patayin, sapagkat may mga pagkain sa aming bukid: trigo at sebada, langis at pulot-pukyutan.” Kaya hindi niya sila pinatay pati ang iba pa nilang mga kasama.

But ten men were found among them that said unto Ishmael, Slay us not; for we have some things hidden in the field, [such as] wheat, and barley, and oil, and honey. So he forbore, and slew them not in the midst of their brethren.

9 Ang hukay kung saan itinapon ni Ismael ang lahat ng mga bangkay ng mga kalalakihan na kaniyang pinatay kasama si Gedalias—ang malaking hukay na ito ay hinukay ni Haring Asa nang salakayin sila ni Haring Baasa ng Israel. Pinuno ito ni Ismael na anak ni Netanias ng kaniyang mga napatay.

And the cistern wherein Ishmael cast all the corpses of the men, whom he had slain in company with Gedalyahu, is the same which king Assa had made on account of Ba'sha the king of Israel: this did Ishmael the son of Nethanyah fill with slain persons.

10 Kasunod nito, binihag ni Ismael ang lahat ng taong nasa Mizpa, ang mga anak na babae ng hari at ang lahat ng mga taong naiwan sa Mizpa na itinalaga ni Nebezaradan na punong tagapagbantay ni Gedalias na anak ni Ahicam. Kaya binihag sila ni Ismael na anak ni Netanias at tumawid sa mga Ammonita.

Then did Ishmael carry away captive all the residue of the people that were in Mizpah, the king's daughters, and all the people that were remaining in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had entrusted to Gedalyahu the son of Achikam: and Ishmael the son of Nethanyah carried them away captive, and went off to pass over to the children of Ammon.

11 Ngunit narinig ni Johanan na anak ni Karea at ng lahat ng mga pinunong hukbo na kasama niya ang lahat ng ginawang pinsala ni Ismael na anak ni Netanias.

But when Jochanan the son of Kareach, and all the captains of the armies that were with him, heard of all the evil that Ishmael the son of Nethanyah had done:

12 Kaya dinala nila ang lahat ng kanilang mga tauhan at pumunta upang makipaglaban kay Ismael na anak ni Netanias. Natagpuan nila siya sa malaking lawa ng Gibeon.

Then did they take all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethanyah, and found him by the great water[-pool] that is near Gib'on.

13 At nangyari ito nang nakita ng lahat ng mga taong kasama ni Ismael si Johanan na anak ni Karea at ang lahat ng mga pinuno ng hukbo na kasama niya, labis silang natuwa.

And it came to pass, when all the people who were with Ishmael saw Jochanan the son of Kareach, and all the captains of the armies that were with him, that they were rejoiced.

14 Kaya ang lahat ng mga taong nabihag ni Ismael sa Mizpa ay bumalik at pumunta kay Johanan na anak ni Karea.

And all the people that Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah turned about and returned, and went unto Jochanan the son of Kareach.

15 Ngunit tumakas si Ismael na anak ni Netanias kasama ang walong kalalakihan mula kay Johanan. Pumunta siya sa mga Ammonita.

But Ishmael the son of Nethanyah escaped with eight men from the presence of Jochanan, and he went to the children of 'Ammon.

16 Kinuha ni Johanan na anak ni Karea at ang lahat ng mga pinuno ng hukbo na kasama niya mula Mizpa ang lahat ng mga taongnaligtas mula kay Ismael na anak ni Netanias. Ito ay matapos patayin ni Ismael si Gedalias na anak ni Ahicam. Kinuha ni Johanan at ng kaniyang mga kasama ang malalakas na kalalakihan, mga lalaking mandirigma, mga kababaihan at mga bata, at ang mga eunuko na nailigtas sa Gibeon.

Then took Jochanan the son of Kareach, and all the captains of the armies that were with him, all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethanyah, from Mizpah, after he had slain Gedalyah the son of Achikam, the adult males, the men of war, and the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought back from Gib'on;

17 Pagkatapos pumunta sila at nanatili ng isang saglit sa Gerut-quimam na malapit sa Bethlehem. Pupunta sila patungong Egipto

And they went, and remained in Geruth-Kimham, which is by Beth-lechem, to go to enter into Egypt,

18 dahil sa mga Caldeo. Natakot sila sa kanila matapos patayin ni Ismael na anak ni Netanias si Gedalias na anak ni Ahicam, na inilagay ng hari ng Babilonia upang mangasiwa sa lupain.

Because of the Chaldeans; for they were afraid of them; because Ishmael the son of Nethanyah had slain Gedalyahu the son of Achikam, whom the king of Babylon had appointed governor over the land.
