< إِرْمِيَا 41 >

وَكَانَ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلسَّابِعِ، أَنَّ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنَ نَثَنْيَا بْنِ أَلِيشَامَاعَ، مِنَ ٱلنَّسْلِ ٱلْمُلُوكِيِّ، جَاءَ هُوَ وَعُظَمَاءُ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَعَشَرَةُ رِجَالٍ مَعَهُ إِلَى جَدَلْيَا بْنِ أَخِيقَامَ إِلَى ٱلْمِصْفَاةِ، وَأَكَلُوا هُنَاكَ خُبْزًا مَعًا فِي ٱلْمِصْفَاةِ. ١ 1
But it happened that in the seventh month Ishmael son of Nethaniah son of Elishama, from the royal family, and some officers of the king, came—ten men were with him—to Gedaliah son of Ahikam, at Mizpah. They ate food together there in Mizpah.
فَقَامَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ نَثَنْيَا وَٱلْعَشَرَةُ ٱلرِّجَالِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا مَعَهُ وَضَرَبُوا جَدَلْيَا بْنَ أَخِيقَامَ بْنِ شَافَانَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ فَقَتَلُوهُ، هَذَا ٱلَّذِي أَقَامَهُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٢ 2
But Ishmael son of Nethaniah, and the ten men who were with him rose up and attacked Gedaliah son of Ahikam son of Shaphan, with the sword. Ishmael killed Gedaliah, whom the king of Babylon had put in charge of the land.
وَكُلُّ ٱلْيَهُودِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا مَعَهُ، أَيْ مَعَ جَدَلْيَا، فِي ٱلْمِصْفَاةِ وَٱلْكَلْدَانِيُّونَ ٱلَّذِينَ وُجِدُوا هُنَاكَ، وَرِجَالُ ٱلْحَرْبِ، ضَرَبَهُمْ إِسْمَاعِيلُ. ٣ 3
Then Ishmael killed all the Judeans who were with Gedaliah in Mizpah and the Chaldean fighting men found there.
وَكَانَ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّانِي بَعْدَ قَتْلِهِ جَدَلْيَا وَلَمْ يَعْلَمْ إِنْسَانٌ، ٤ 4
Then it was the second day after the killing of Gedaliah, but no one knew.
أَنَّ رِجَالًا أَتَوْا مِنْ شَكِيمَ وَمِنْ شِيلُوَ وَمِنَ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ، ثَمَانِينَ رَجُلًا مَحْلُوقِي ٱللُّحَى وَمُشَقَّقِي ٱلثِّيَابِ وَمُخَمَّشِينَ، وَبِيَدِهِمْ تَقْدِمَةٌ وَلُبَانٌ لِيُدْخِلُوهُمَا إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ٥ 5
Some men came from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria—eighty men who had shaved their beard, torn their clothes, and cut themselves—with food offerings and frankincense in their hands to go to Yahweh's house.
فَخَرَجَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ نَثَنْيَا لِلِقَائِهِمْ مِنَ ٱلْمِصْفَاةِ سَائِرًا وَبَاكِيًا. فَكَانَ لَمَّا لَقِيَهُمْ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَهُمْ: «هَلُمَّ إِلَى جَدَلْيَا بْنِ أَخِيقَامَ». ٦ 6
So Ishmael son of Nethaniah went out from Mizpah to meet them as they went, walking and weeping. Then it happened that as he encountered them, he said to them, “Come to Gedaliah son of Ahikam!”
فَكَانَ لَمَّا أَتَوْا إِلَى وَسْطِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، أَنَّ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنَ نَثَنْيَا قَتَلَهُمْ وَأَلْقَاهُمْ إِلَى وَسْطِ ٱلْجُبِّ، هُوَ وَٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ. ٧ 7
It came about that when they came into the city, Ishmael son of Nethaniah slaughtered them and threw them into a pit, he and the men who were with him.
وَلَكِنْ وُجِدَ فِيهِمْ عَشَرَةُ رِجَالٍ قَالُوا لِإِسْمَاعِيلَ: «لَا تَقْتُلْنَا لِأَنَّهُ يُوجَدُ لَنَا خَزَائِنُ فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ: قَمْحٌ وَشَعِيرٌ وَزَيْتٌ وَعَسَلٌ». فَٱمْتَنَعَ وَلَمْ يَقْتُلْهُمْ بَيْنَ إِخْوَتِهِمْ. ٨ 8
But there were ten men among them who said to Ishmael, “Do not kill us, for there are provisions of ours in a field: Wheat and barley, oil and honey.” So he did not kill them with their other companions.
فَٱلْجُبُّ ٱلَّذِي طَرَحَ فِيهِ إِسْمَاعِيلُ كُلَّ جُثَثِ ٱلرِّجَالِ ٱلَّذِينَ قَتَلَهُمْ بِسَبَبِ جَدَلْيَا، هُوَ ٱلَّذِي صَنَعَهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ آسَا مِنْ وَجْهِ بَعْشَا مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. فَمَلَأَهُ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ نَثَنْيَا مِنَ ٱلْقَتْلَى. ٩ 9
The cistern where Ishmael threw all the dead bodies that he had killed, was a large cistern that King Asa dug to make a defense against King Baasha of Israel. Ishmael son of Nethaniah filled it in with the dead.
فَسَبَى إِسْمَاعِيلُ كُلَّ بَقِيَّةِ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي ٱلْمِصْفَاةِ، بَنَاتِ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَكُلَّ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِي بَقِيَ فِي ٱلْمِصْفَاةِ، ٱلَّذِينَ أَقَامَ عَلَيْهِمْ نَبُوزَرَادَانُ رَئِيسُ ٱلشُّرَطِ جَدَلْيَا بْنَ أَخِيقَامَ، سَبَاهُمْ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ نَثَنْيَا وَذَهَبَ لِيَعْبُرَ إِلَى بَنِي عَمُّونَ. ١٠ 10
Next Ishmael captured all the other people who were in Mizpah, the king's daughters and all the people who were left in Mizpah whom Nebuzaradan the chief guard had assigned to Gedaliah son of Ahikam. So Ishmael son of Nethaniah captured them and went to cross over to the people of Ammon.
فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ يُوحَانَانُ بْنُ قَارِيحَ وَكُلُّ رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلْجُيُوشِ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ بِكُلِّ ٱلشَّرِّ ٱلَّذِي فَعَلَهُ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ نَثَنْيَا، ١١ 11
But Johanan son of Kareah and all the army commanders with him heard of all the harm that Ishmael son of Nethaniah had done.
أَخَذُوا كُلَّ ٱلرِّجَالِ وَسَارُوا لِيُحَارِبُوا إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنَ نَثَنْيَا، فَوَجَدُوهُ عِنْدَ ٱلْمِيَاهِ ٱلْكَثِيرَةِ ٱلَّتِي فِي جِبْعُونَ. ١٢ 12
So they took all their men and went to fight against Ishmael son of Nethaniah. They found him at the great pool of Gibeon.
وَلَمَّا رَأَى كُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِي مَعَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ يُوحَانَانَ بْنَ قَارِيحَ وَكُلَّ رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلْجُيُوشِ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُمْ فَرِحُوا. ١٣ 13
Then it happened that when all the people who were with Ishmael saw Johanan son of Kareah and all the army commanders who were with him, they were very happy.
فَدَارَ كُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِي سَبَاهُ إِسْمَاعِيلُ مِنَ ٱلْمِصْفَاةِ، وَرَجَعُوا وَسَارُوا إِلَى يُوحَانَانَ بْنِ قَارِيحَ. ١٤ 14
So all the people whom Ishmael had captured at Mizpah turned around and went to Johanan son of Kareah.
أَمَّا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ نَثَنْيَا فَهَرَبَ بِثَمَانِيَةِ رِجَالٍ مِنْ وَجْهِ يُوحَانَانَ وَسَارَ إِلَى بَنِي عَمُّونَ. ١٥ 15
But Ishmael son of Nethaniah fled with eight men from Johanan. He went to the people of Ammon.
فَأَخَذَ يُوحَانَانُ بْنُ قَارِيحَ وَكُلُّ رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلْجُيُوشِ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ، كُلَّ بَقِيَّةِ ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱسْتَرَدَّهُمْ مِنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ نَثَنْيَا مِنَ ٱلْمِصْفَاةِ، بَعْدَ قَتْلِ جَدَلْيَا بْنِ أَخِيقَامَ، رِجَالَ ٱلْحَرْبِ ٱلْمُقْتَدِرِينَ وَٱلنِّسَاءَ وَٱلْأَطْفَالَ وَٱلْخِصْيَانَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱسْتَرَدَّهُمْ مِنْ جِبْعُونَ. ١٦ 16
Johanan son of Kareah and all the army commanders with him took from Mizpah all the people who had been rescued from Ishmael son of Nethaniah. This was after Ishmael had killed Gedaliah son of Ahikam. Johanan and his companions took the strong men, the fighting men, the women and children, and the eunuchs who had been rescued at Gibeon.
فَسَارُوا وَأَقَامُوا فِي جَيْرُوتَ كِمْهَامَ ٱلَّتِي بِجَانِبِ بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ، لِكَيْ يَسِيرُوا وَيَدْخُلُوا مِصْرَ ١٧ 17
Then they went and stayed for a while in Geruth Kimham, which is near Bethlehem. They were going to go to Egypt
مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْكَلْدَانِيِّينَ لِأَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا خَائِفِينَ مِنْهُمْ، لِأَنَّ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنَ نَثَنْيَا كَانَ قَدْ ضَرَبَ جَدَلْيَا بْنَ أَخِيقَامَ ٱلَّذِي أَقَامَهُ مَلِكُ بَابِلَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. ١٨ 18
because of the Chaldeans. They were afraid of them since Ishmael son of Nethaniah had killed Gedaliah son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had put in charge of the land.
