1А седмог месеца дође Исмаило, син Нетаније сина Елисаминог, царског рода, и кнезови цареви, десет људи с њим, ка Годолији сину Ахикамовом у Миспу, и једоше онде у Миспи с њим.
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.
2Потом уста Исмаило, син Нетанијин и десет људи што беху с њим, и убише мачем Годолију, сина Ахикама сина Сафановог; тако погубише оног кога беше поставио цар вавилонски над земљом.
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.
3И све Јудејце који беху с њим, с Годолијом, у Миспи, и Халдејце који се затекоше онде, војнике, поби Исмаило.
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.
4А сутрадан, пошто уби Годолију, док још нико не дозна,
4And it came to pass the second day after he had slain Gedaliah, and no man knew it,
5Дођоше људи из Сихема, из Силома и из Самарије, осамдесет људи, обријане браде и раздртих хаљина и испарани по телу, и имаху у рукама дар и кад, да принесу у дом Господњи.
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.
6Тада Исмаило, син Нетанијин, изиђе им из Миспе на сусрет и иђаше плачући, и сретавши се с њима рече им: Ходите ка Годолији, сину Ахикамовом.
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.
7А кад дођоше усред града, покла их Исмаило, син Нетанијин, с људима који беху с њим и баци их у јаму.
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.
8А међу њима се нађе десет људи који рекоше Исмаилу: Немој нас погубити, јер имамо сакривено благо у пољу, пшенице и јечма и уља и меда. И остави их, и не поби их с браћом њиховом.
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.
9А јама у коју побаца Исмаило сва телеса људи које поби уз Годолију беше она коју начини цар Аса бојећи се Васе цара Израиљевог; и Исмаило син Нетанијин напуни је побијених људи.
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.
10И зароби Исмаило сав остатак народа што беше у Миспи, кћери цареве и сав народ што беше остао у Миспи, над којим беше поставио Невузардан заповедник стражарски Годолију, сина Ахикамовог; и заробивши их Исмаило, син Нетанијин, пође да пређе к синовима Амоновим.
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.
11Али Јоанан, син Каријин, и све војводе што беху с њим чуше све зло што учини Исмаило син Нетанијин.
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,
12Тада узеше све своје људе и пођоше да ударе на Исмаила, сина Нетанијиног, ког нађоше код велике воде у Гаваону.
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.
13И сав народ што беше с Исмаилом кад виде Јоанана сина Каријиног и све војводе што беху с њим, обрадова се,
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.
14И сав народ што Исмаило зароби из Миспе обрну се и отиде к Јоанану, сину Каријином.
14So all the people that Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah cast about and returned, and went unto Johanan the son of Kareah.
15А Исмаило син Нетанијин побеже с осам људи од Јоанана, и отиде к синовима Амоновим.
15But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the Ammonites.
16И тако Јоанан, син Каријин и све војводе што беху с њим узеше сав остатак народа што повратише од Исмаила, сина Нетанијиног, који убивши Годолију, сина Ахикамовог, беше их одвео из Миспе, војнике и жене и децу и дворане, и одведоше их из Гаваона;
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:
17И отишавши стадоше у гостионици Химамовој код Витлејема; да би отишли и прешли у Мисир,
17And they departed, and dwelt in the habitation of Chimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt,
18Ради Халдејаца, јер их се бојаху, што Исмаило, син Нетанијин, уби Годолију, сина Ахикамовог, ког беше поставио цар вавилонски над земљом.
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.
