< Jeremiah 41 >

1 But in the seuenth moneth came Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah, the sonne of Elishama of the seede royall, and the princes of the King, and tenne men with him, vnto Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam to Mizpah, and there they did eate bread together in Mizpah.
A hla rhih dongla a pha vaengah mangpa tiingan lamkah Elishama koca Nethaniah capa Ishmael neh manghai kah mangpa rhoek neh a taengkah hlang parha he Mizpah kah Ahikam capa Gedaliah taengla ha pawk tih Mizpah ah thikat la buh pahoi a caak uh.
2 Then arose Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah with these tenne men that were with him, and smote Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam the sonne of Shaphan with the sword, and slewe him, whom the King of Babel had made gouernour ouer the lande.
Te phoeiah Nethaniah capa Ishmael neh a taengkah aka om hlang parha te thoo uh tih Shaphan koca Ahikam capa Gedaliah te cunghang neh a tloek uh tih amah la a duek sakuh. Anih ni Babylon manghai loh khohmuen kah ham a khueh dae.
3 Ishmael also slewe all the Iewes that were with Gedaliah at Mizpah, and all the Caldeans that were found there, and the men of warre.
Mizpah kah Gedaliah taengah aka om Judah boeih neh Khalden kah caemtloek hlang a hmuh rhoek te tah Ishmael loh a ngawn.
4 Now the second day that he had slaine Gedaliah, and no man knewe it,
Gedaliah a duek te khohnin pabae dongla a pha duela hlang loh a ming moenih.
5 There came men from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, euen fourescore men, hauing their beardes shauen, and their clothes rent and cut, with offerings and incense in their hands to offer in the house of the Lord.
Te dongah Shekhem lamkah, Shiloh lamkah, Samaria lamkah khaw hlang rhoek te ha pawk uh. Hlang sawmrhet loh hmuimul a vok tih himbai pawn neh a saa a hlap doela a kut dongkah khocang neh hmueihtui te BOEIPA im la a khuen uh.
6 And Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah went forth from Mizpah to meete them, weeping as he went: and when he met them, he said vnto them, Come to Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam.
Amih aka doe la Nethaniah capa Ishmael te Mizpah lamloh cet. A caeh a caeh vaengah tah aka rhap khaw ana om tih amih te a hum uh vaengah tah amih te, “Ahikam capa Gedaliah taengla ha mop uh laeh,” a ti nah.
7 And when they came into the middes of the citie, Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah slewe them, and cast them into the middes of the pit, he and the men that were with him.
Amih te khopuei khui la a pawk vaengah tah Nethaniah capa Ishmael neh a taengkah hlang rhoek loh tangrhom khui la a ngawn uh.
8 But tenne men were founde among them, that saide vnto Ishmael, Slay vs not: for we haue treasures in the fielde, of wheate, and of barley, and of oyle, and of honie: so he stayed, and slew them not among their brethren.
Tedae amih khuikah hlang parha loh a hmuh vaengah Ishmael te, “Kaimih he n'duek sak boeh, kamamih taengah khohmuen kah kawn la cang neh cangtun khaw, situi neh khoitui khaw om pueng,” a ti nauh. Te dongah a toeng tih a manuca lakli ah amih te duek sak pawh.
9 Now the pit wherein Ishmael had cast the dead bodies of the men (whom he had slayne because of Gedaliah) is it, which Asa the King had made because of Basha King of Israel, and Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah filled it with them that were slaine.
Gedaliah kut dongkah a ngawn hlang rhok boeih te Ishmael loh tangrhom khuila pahoi a voeih. Tekah te Israel manghai Baasha maelhmai kongah ni manghai Asa loh a saii dae Nethaniah capa Ishmael loh rhok a hah sak.
10 Then Ishmael caryed away captiue all the residue of the people that were in Mizpah, euen the Kings daughters, and all the people that remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzar-adan the chiefe steward had committed to Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam, and Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah caried them away captiue, and departed to goe ouer to the Ammonites.
Mizpah kah pilnam kah a meet boeih, imtawt boeiping Nebuzaradan loh Ahikam capa Gedaliah a hip sak manghai canu rhoek khaw, Mizpah ah aka sueng pilnam boeih khaw Ishmael loh a sol. Amih te a sol phoeiah Nethaniah capa Ishmael te cet tih Ammon koca rhoek te a paan.
11 But when Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and all the captaines of the hoste that were with him, heard of all the euill that Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah had done,
Nethaniah capa Ishmael loh boethae a saii boeih te Kareah capa Johanan neh a taengkah caem mangpa rhoek loh boeih a yaak.
12 Then they all tooke their men, and went to fight with Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah, and founde him by ye great waters that are in Gibeon.
Te dongah hlang te boeih a khuen tih Nethaniah capa Ishmael vathoh thil hamla cet uh. Te vaengah anih te Gibeon kah tui puei taengah a hmuh uh.
13 Nowe when all the people whom Ishmael caryed away captiue, sawe Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and all the captaines of the hoste, that were with him, they were glad.
Ishmael taengkah pilnam boeih loh Kareah capa Johanan neh a taengkah caem mangpa boeih te a hmuh uh vaengah a kohoe uh.
14 So all the people, that Ishmael had caryed away captiue from Mizpah, returned and came againe, and went vnto Iohanan the sonne of Kareah.
Mizpah ah Ishmael kah a sol pilnam khaw boeih cet uh. Tedae a mael uh vaengah tah Kareah capa Johanan taengla mael uh.
15 But Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah, escaped from Iohanan with eight men, and went to the Ammonites.
Te vaengah Nethaniah capa Ishmael tah hlang parhet neh Johanan mikhmuh lamloh vi uh tih Ammon koca rhoek taengla cet.
16 Then tooke Iohanan the sonne of Kareah, and all the captaines of the hoste that were with him, all the remnant of the people, whom Ishmael the sonne of Nethaniah had caried away captiue from Mizpah, (after that he had slaine Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam) euen the strong men of warre, and the women, and the children, and the eunuches, whom hee had brought againe from Gibeon:
Kareah capa Johanan neh amah taengkah caem mangpa boeih loh Nethaniah capa Ishmael taengkah pilnam a meet boeih te Mizpah lamkah a loh. Ahikam capa Gedaliah a ngawn phoeiah tah hlang he caemtloek tongpa rhoek khaw, huta camoe khaw, imkhoem rhoek khaw Gibeon lamloh a mael puei.
17 And they departed and dwelt in Geruth Chimham, which is by Beth-lehem, to goe and to enter into Egypt,
A caeh uh vaengah Egypt la aka pawk te paan ham Bethlehem kaep Khimham kah Khimham imhmuen ah kho a sak uh.
18 Because of the Caldeans: for they feared them, because Ishmael ye sonne of Nethaniah had slaine Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam, whom the King of Babel made gouernour in the land.
Babylon manghai loh khohmuen a hung sak Ahikam capa Gedaliah te Nethaniah capa Ishmael loh a ngawn dongah a mikhmuh kah Khalden rhoek te khaw a rhih uh.
