¹Now it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah the son of Elishama, of the seed royal, and the princes of the king, even ten men with him, came unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and there they did eat bread together in Mizpah.

¹Aga seitsmendas kuus tulid Ismael, Elisama poja Netanja poeg, kuninglikust soost ja üks kuninga pealikuid, ja kümme meest koos temaga Gedalja, Ahikami poja juurde Mispasse. Kui nad seal Mispas üheskoos leiba võtsid,

²Then arose Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and the ten men that were with him, and smote Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan with the sword, and slew him, whom the king of Babylon had made governor over the land.

²siis tõusid Ismael, Netanja poeg, ja need kümme meest, kes olid koos temaga, ja lõid Gedaljat, Saafani poja Ahikami poega mõõgaga ning surmasid tema, kelle Paabeli kuningas oli pannud maavalitsejaks.

³Ishmael also slew all the Jews that were with him, even with Gedaliah, at Mizpah, and the Chaldeans that were found there, and the men of war.

³Ka kõik juudid, kes olid Gedalja juures Mispas, ja kaldealased, sõjamehed, kes juhtusid seal olema, lõi Ismael maha.

⁴And it came to pass the second day after he had slain Gedaliah, and no man knew it,

⁴Ja teisel päeval, kui Gedalja oli tapetud, aga keegi seda veel ei teadnud,

⁵That there came certain from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, even fourscore men, having their beards shaven, and their clothes rent, and having cut themselves, with offerings and incense in their hand, to bring them to the house of the LORD.

⁵tuli Sekemist, Siilost ja Samaariast kaheksakümmend meest, habemed aetud, riided lõhki käristatud ja märgid ihusse lõigatud, käes roaohvrid ja viiruk Issanda kotta viimiseks.

⁶And Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went forth from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went: and it came to pass, as he met them, he said unto them, Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam.

⁶Ja Ismael, Netanja poeg, läks Mispast neile vastu lakkamatult nuttes; ja kui ta neid kohtas, ütles ta neile: 'Tulge Gedalja, Ahikami poja juurde!'

⁷And it was so, when they came into the midst of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah slew them, and cast them into the midst of the pit, he, and the men that were with him.

⁷Aga kui nad olid jõudnud linna keskele, siis Ismael, Netanja poeg, ja mehed, kes olid koos temaga, tapsid nad ära ja viskasid kaevu.

⁸But ten men were found among them that said unto Ishmael, Slay us not: for we have treasures in the field, of wheat, and of barley, and of oil, and of honey. So he forbare, and slew them not among their brethren.

⁸Aga nende hulgas leidus kümme meest, kes ütlesid Ismaelile: 'Ära meid surma, sest meil on peidetud varandusi väljal: nisu ja otri, õli ja mett!' Siis ta jättis need puutumata ega surmanud neid koos nende vendadega.

⁹Now the pit wherein Ishmael had cast all the dead bodies of the men, whom he had slain because of Gedaliah, was it which Asa the king had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with them that were slain.

⁹Ja kaev, kuhu Ismael viskas kõik nende meeste surnukehad, keda ta oli maha löönud, nende seas Gedalja kaaslased, oli seesama, mille kuningas Aasa oli teinud Iisraeli kuninga Baesa pärast; selle täitis Ismael, Netanja poeg, mahalöödutega.

¹⁰Then Ishmael carried away captive all the residue of the people that were in Mizpah, even the king's daughters, and all the people that remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had committed to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah carried them away captive, and departed to go over to the Ammonites.

¹⁰Ja Ismael võttis vangi kogu rahva jäägi, kes oli Mispas, kuningatütred ja kogu rahva, kes olid jäänud Mispasse, keda ihukaitsepealik Nebusaradan oli jätnud Gedalja, Ahikami poja hoolde; Ismael, Netanja poeg, võttis need vangi ja läks teele, et minna ammonlaste juurde.

¹¹But when Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, heard of all the evil that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had done,

¹¹Aga kui Joohanan, Kaareahi poeg, ja kõik sõjaväepealikud, kes olid koos temaga, kuulsid kõigest sellest kurjast, mida Ismael, Netanja poeg, oli teinud,

¹²Then 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.

¹²siis võtsid nad kõik oma mehed ja läksid sõdima Ismaeli, Netanja poja vastu; ja nad leidsid tema suure vee äärest, mis on Gibeonis.

¹³Now it came to pass, that when all the people which were with Ishmael saw Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, then they were glad.

¹³Aga kui kõik rahvas, kes oli Ismaeli juures, nägi Joohanani, Kaareahi poega, ja kõiki sõjaväepealikuid, kes olid koos temaga, siis nad rõõmustasid,

¹⁴So all the people that Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah cast about and returned, and went unto Johanan the son of Kareah.

¹⁴ja kõik rahvas, kelle Ismael Mispast oli vangi võtnud, pöördus ja läks tagasi ning tuli Joohanani, Kaareahi poja juurde.

¹⁵But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the Ammonites.

¹⁵Aga Ismael, Netanja poeg, pääses Joohanani eest kaheksa mehega ja läks ammonlaste juurde.

¹⁶Then took Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, from Mizpah, after that he had slain Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, even mighty men of war, and the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought again from Gibeon:

¹⁶Ja Joohanan, Kaareahi poeg, ja kõik sõjaväepealikud, kes olid koos temaga, võtsid kogu ülejäänud rahva, kelle ta oli toonud Mispast Ismaeli, Netanja poja käest, pärast seda kui see oli maha löönud Gedalja, Ahikami poja: mehed, sõjakõlvulised mehed, naised ja lapsed ja teenrid, keda ta oli Gibeonist tagasi toonud,

¹⁷And they departed, and dwelt in the habitation of Chimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt,

¹⁷ja läksid ning peatusid Kimhami majutuspaigas, mis on Petlemma lähedal, et siis minna ja jõuda Egiptusesse

¹⁸Because of the Chaldeans: for they were afraid of them, because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had slain Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon made governor in the land.

¹⁸kaldealaste eest, sest nad kartsid neid, kuna Ismael, Netanja poeg, oli maha löönud Gedalja, Ahikami poja, kelle Paabeli kuningas oli pannud maavalitsejaks.
