< Jeremiah 41 >

1 Ishmael was a member of the king’s family. He had been one of King Zedekiah’s important officials. In October of that year, he went to Mizpah with ten other men to [talk with] Gedaliah. While they were eating together,
Hagi ana kafumofo 7ni ikantera, Elisama negeho ne' Netania nemofo Ismaeli'a, kinima nemaniza nagapinti nekino, kini ne'mofo eri'zama e'neriza vahepinti mago zamimo'e. Ana hu'neankino 10ni'a vahe zamavarege'za Ahikamu nemofo Gedalia kenaku Mizpa kumate e'naze. Hagi zamagra Gedalia'ene manine'za magoka ne'za nenazafinti,
2 Ishmael and the other ten men jumped up, and with their swords they killed Gedaliah—the man whom the king of Babylon had appointed to be their governor!
Netania nemofo Ismaeli'ene agranema vu'naza 10ni'a vahe'mo'za oti'za, Babiloni kini ne'mo'ma kva azeri otigeno Juda mopama kegavama hu'nea ne' Safani nemofo Gedaliana bainati kazinteti ahe fri'naze.
3 Ishmael [and the other men] also killed all the Jews and the soldiers from Babylonia who were with Gedaliah at Mizpah.
Hagi Ismaeli'a Juda vahe'ma Gedalia'enema Mizpa kumate'ma mani'naza vahera anazanke huno zamahe nefrino, Babiloni sondia vahe'ma anante'ma mani'naza vahe'enena zamahe fri'ne.
4 The next day, before anyone had found out that Gedaliah had been murdered,
Hagi Gedaliama ahe fri'nea nanekea vahe'mo'za ontahi'nageno, anante kna zupa,
5 eighty men from Shechem, Shiloh, and Samaria [cities] came to worship at the temple of Yahweh [in Mizpah]. They had shaved off their beards and torn their clothes and cut themselves [to show that they were mourning]. And they had brought grain offerings and incense [to burn on the altar].
Sekemine Silone Sameria kumatetiki hu'za, 80'a vahe'ma e'nazana, zamagi zamazokara nehare'za, kukena zamia tagato nehu'za, zamavufaga taga nehu'za, witi ofama hu'zane, mananentake zantamima kre manama vu'zanena eri'neza Ra Anumzamofo mono nompi ofa hunaku e'naze.
6 Ishmael went out of the city to meet them, crying as he went. When he reached them, he said, “Come [and see what has happened to] Gedaliah!”
Hagi ana'ma nehazageno'a Netania nemofo Ismaeli'a ana vahe zamagenaku Mizpa kumapintira zavira neteno atiramino e'ne. Hagi eme nezamageno'a amanage huno hu'ne, tamagra evuta Ahikamu nemofo Gedaliana keho.
7 But as soon as they had all entered the town, Ishmael and his men killed [most of] them and threw their corpses into a well.
Hagi anagema hige'za zamagra rankumapima ufrage'za, Netania nemofo Ismaeli'ene agranema mani'naza vahe'mo'za ana vahera zamahe frite'za zamavufaga'a eri'za mago tinkerifi ome matevu atre'naze.
8 There were [only] ten of them whom they (spared/did not kill). They were not killed because they promised to Ishmael that [if he allowed them to remain alive, they would bring him] lots of wheat and barley and olive oil and honey that they had hidden.
Hianagi ana vahepintira 10ni'a vahe'mo'za Ismaelina asami'za, tagrira tahe ofrio, na'ankure witine bali ragane olivi masavene tume rima'agi huta frakunkeno me'ne. E'i anage hazageno Ismaeli'a antahintahi'a rukrahe huno zamagri'ene mago'a vahe'ma zamagranema mani'naza vahera zamahe ofri'ne.
9 The well where Ishmael’s men had thrown the corpses of the men whom they had murdered was the deep well that King Asa’s [men] had dug [in order that they would have water in the city] if the army of King Baasha of Israel would surround the city. Ishmael’s men filled that well with corpses.
Hagi Ismaeli'a Gedali'ene mago'a vahe'ma agrama zamahe fri'nea vahe zamavufagama eri vazi'nea tinkeria rankrerfa hu'neankino ana kerima kafinte'nea nera, Israeli kini ne' Ba'asa'ma ha' eme huntenaku nehigeno, kini ne' Asa'ma kafinte'nea tinkerie. Ana hu'nefi Netania nemofo Ismaeli'a anama zamahe fria vahe zamavufaga erinte avite'ne.
10 Then Ishmael [and his men] captured the king’s daughters and some of the other people who had been left in Mizpah by Nebuzaradan in order that Gedaliah would take care of them. Ishmael and his men took those people and started back toward the Ammon area.
Hagi Netania nemofo Ismaeli'a ana'ma huteno'a ana maka Mizpama mani'naza vahera kina huzmanteteno zamavarege'za, Mizpa kumara atre'za Amoni vahe mopama me'nea kantega vu'naze. E'i ana vahera kini ne'mofo mofa'ne zagane, Mizpa kumate'ma zamatrage'za mani'naza vahe'ma, Babiloni Sondia vahete kva ne' Nebusaradani'ma Ahikamu nemofo Gedalia azampima antegeno, kegavama hu'nea vahe zamavareno vu'ne.
11 But Johanan and all the other leaders of the Israeli soldiers who had not surrendered to the army of Babylonia heard about what Ishmael [and his men] had done.
Hagi Karea nemofo Johanani'ene mago'a sondia vahete kva vahe'mo'za, Netania nemofo Ismaeli'ma hu'nea kefo avu'ava zamofo nanekea ana maka antahi vagare'naze.
12 So they [immediately] went with all their men to stop them. They caught up with them at the large pool near Gibeon [city].
Ana'ma hute'za zamagranema mani'naza vene'ne nagara ana maka zamavare'za Netania nemofo Ismaelina ha' ome huntenaku vu'za, Gibeoni kumate'ma rantiru'ma me'nere nevige'za ome ke'naze.
13 When all the people whom Ishmael and his men had captured saw Johanan and the soldiers who were with him, they [shouted] joyfully.
Hagi ana maka vahe'ma Ismaeli'enema nevaza vahe'mo'za, Karea nemofo Johananine sondia vahete kva vahetaminema nezamage'za tusi musenkase hu'naze.
14 So all those who had been captured in Mizpah escaped, and they started to help Johanan.
Hagi Ismaeli'ma ana maka vahe'ma Mizpa kumateti'ma kinama huzamanteno zamavareno vu'nea vahe'mo'za, ete rukrahe hu'za Karea nemofo Johananinte e'naze.
15 But Ishmael and eight of his men escaped and fled to the Ammon area.
Hianagi Netania nemofo Ismaeli'a 8'a vahe zamavarege'za Johananinku koro fre'za Amoni vahe moparega vu'naze.
16 Then Johanan and the men who were with him [gathered together] all the people whom they had rescued at Gibeon. They included soldiers and women and children and some of the king’s palace officials. They were all people whom Ishmael [and his men] had captured after they had killed Gedaliah.
Hagi anante Karea nemofo Johanani'ene maka sondia vahete kva vahe'ma agranema mani'naza vahe'mo'za, Netania nemofo Ismaeli'ma, Ahikamu nemofo Gedaliama ahenefrino kinama huzamanteno zamavareno nevige'za Gibeoniti'ma ome zamavare'naza vahera ana maka Mizpa kumatetira zamavare'za vu'naze. Anampima vu'nazana, sondia vahe'ene, a'nane naga'ene, mofavre naga'ene, kini nemofo eri'za vahe'enena zamavare'za vu'naze.
17 They took them all to Geruth-Kimham [village] near Bethlehem. And they all prepared to go to Egypt.
Hagi zamagra Isipi vunaku karanka nevu'za, Betlehemu kuma tvaonte Gerut Kimham umani'naze.
18 They were worried about what the soldiers of Babylonia [would do to them when they found out] that Ishmael had killed Gedaliah, who had been appointed by the King of Babylonia to be their governor.
Na'ankure Babiloni kini ne'mo'ma Ahikamu nemofo Gedaliama kva azeri otigeno Juda mopare'ma kegavama hu'nea ne'ma, Netania nemofo Ismaeli'ma ahe fri'nea zanku Babiloni vahe koro hu'za umani'naze.
