Jeremiah 41:1 (NET) New English Translation

1 But in the seventh month Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah and grandson of Elishama who was a member of the royal family and had been one of Zedekiah's chief officers, came with ten of his men to Gedaliah son of Ahikam at Mizpah. While they were eating a meal together with him there at Mizpah,
2 Ishmael son of Nethaniah and the ten men who were with him stood up, pulled out their swords, and killed Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam and grandson of Shaphan. Thus Ishmael killed the man that the king of Babylon had appointed to govern the country.
3 Ishmael also killed all the Judeans who were with Gedaliah at Mizpah and the Babylonian soldiers who happened to be there.
4 On the day after Gedaliah had been murdered, before anyone even knew about it,
5 eighty men arrived from Shechem, Shiloh, and Samaria. They had shaved off their beards, torn their clothes, and cut themselves to show they were mourning. They were carrying grain offerings and incense to present at the temple of the LORD in Jerusalem.
6 Ishmael son of Nethaniah went out from Mizpah to meet them. He was pretending to cry as he walked along. When he met them, he said to them, "Come with me to meet Gedaliah son of Ahikam."
7 But as soon as they were inside the city, Ishmael son of Nethaniah and the men who were with him slaughtered them and threw their bodies in a cistern.
8 But there were ten men among them who said to Ishmael, "Do not kill us. For we will give you the stores of wheat, barley, olive oil, and honey we have hidden in a field. So he spared their lives and did not kill them along with the rest.
9 Now the cistern where Ishmael threw all the dead bodies of those he had killed was a large one that King Asa had constructed as part of his defenses against King Baasha of Israel. Ishmael son of Nethaniah filled it with dead bodies.
10 Then Ishmael took captive all the people who were still left alive in Mizpah. This included the royal princesses and all the rest of the people in Mizpah that Nebuzaradan, the captain of the royal guard, had put under the authority of Gedaliah son of Ahikam. Ishmael son of Nethaniah took all these people captive and set out to cross over to the Ammonites.
11 Johanan son of Kareah and all the army officers who were with him heard about all the atrocities that Ishmael son of Nethaniah had committed.
12 So they took all their troops and went to fight against Ishmael son of Nethaniah. They caught up with him near the large pool at Gibeon.
13 When all the people that Ishmael had taken captive saw Johanan son of Kareah and all the army officers with him, they were glad.
14 All those people that Ishmael had taken captive from Mizpah turned and went over to Johanan son of Kareah.
15 But Ishmael son of Nethaniah managed to escape from Johanan along with eight of his men, and he went on over to Ammon.
16 Johanan son of Kareah and all the army officers who were with him led off all the people who had been left alive at Mizpah. They had rescued them from Ishmael son of Nethaniah after he killed Gedaliah son of Ahikam. They led off the men, women, children, soldiers, and court officials whom they had brought away from Gibeon.
17 They set out to go to Egypt to get away from the Babylonians, but stopped at Geruth Kimham near Bethlehem.
18 They were afraid of what the Babylonians might do because Ishmael son of Nethaniah had killed Gedaliah son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had appointed to govern the country.
1 Now it came to pass H1961 in the seventh H7637 month, H2320 that Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah H5418 the son H1121 of Elishama, H476 of the seed H4480 H2233 royal, H4410 and the princes H7227 of the king, H4428 even ten H6235 men H376 with H854 him, came H935 unto H413 Gedaliah H1436 the son H1121 of Ahikam H296 to Mizpah; H4708 and there H8033 they did eat H398 bread H3899 together H3162 in Mizpah. H4709
2 Then arose H6965 Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah, H5418 and the ten H6235 men H376 that H834 were H1961 with H854 him , and smote H5221 H853 Gedaliah H1436 the son H1121 of Ahikam H296 the son H1121 of Shaphan H8227 with the sword, H2719 and slew H4191 him, whom H834 the king H4428 of Babylon H894 had made governor H6485 over the land. H776
3 Ishmael H3458 also slew H5221 all H3605 the Jews H3064 that H834 were H1961 with H854 him, even with H854 Gedaliah, H1436 at Mizpah, H4709 and the Chaldeans H3778 that H834 were found H4672 there, H8033 and the men H376 of war. H4421
4 And it came to pass H1961 the second H8145 day H3117 after he had slain H4191 H853 Gedaliah, H1436 and no H3808 man H376 knew H3045 it ,
5 That there came H935 certain H376 from Shechem H4480 H7927 , from Shiloh H4480 H7887 , and from Samaria H4480 H8111 , even fourscore H8084 men, H376 having their beards H2206 shaven, H1548 and their clothes H899 rent, H7167 and having cut themselves, H1413 with offerings H4503 and incense H3828 in their hand, H3027 to bring H935 them to the house H1004 of the LORD. H3068
6 And Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah H5418 went forth H3318 from H4480 Mizpah H4709 to meet H7125 them, weeping H1058 all along as he went H1980 H1980 : and it came to pass, H1961 as he met H6298 them , he said H559 unto H413 them, Come H935 to H413 Gedaliah H1436 the son H1121 of Ahikam. H296
7 And it was H1961 so , when they came H935 into H413 the midst H8432 of the city, H5892 that Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah H5418 slew H7819 them, and cast them into H413 the midst H8432 of the pit, H953 he, H1931 and the men H376 that H834 were with H854 him.
8 But ten H6235 men H376 were found H4672 among them that said H559 unto H413 Ishmael, H3458 Slay H4191 us not: H408 for H3588 we have H3426 treasures H4301 in the field, H7704 of wheat, H2406 and of barley, H8184 and of oil, H8081 and of honey. H1706 So he forbear, H2308 and slew H4191 them not H3808 among H8432 their brethren. H251
9 Now the pit H953 wherein H834 H8033 Ishmael H3458 had cast H7993 H853 all H3605 the dead bodies H6297 of the men, H376 whom H834 he had slain H5221 because H3027 of Gedaliah, H1436 was it H1931 which H834 Asa H609 the king H4428 had made H6213 for fear H4480 H6440 of Baasha H1201 king H4428 of Israel: H3478 and Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah H5418 filled H4390 it with them that were slain. H2491
10 Then Ishmael H3458 carried away captive H7617 H853 all H3605 the residue H7611 of the people H5971 that H834 were in Mizpah, H4709 even H853 the king's H4428 daughters, H1323 and all H3605 the people H5971 that remained H7604 in Mizpah, H4709 whom H834 Nebuzaradan H5018 the captain H7227 of the guard H2876 had committed H6485 to H853 Gedaliah H1436 the son H1121 of Ahikam: H296 and Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah H5418 carried them away captive, H7617 and departed H1980 to go over H5674 to H413 the Ammonites H1121 H5983 .
11 But when Johanan H3110 the son H1121 of Kareah, H7143 and all H3605 the captains H8269 of the forces H2428 that H834 were with H854 him, heard H8085 of H853 all H3605 the evil H7451 that H834 Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah H5418 had done, H6213
12 Then they took H3947 H853 all H3605 the men, H376 and went H1980 to fight H3898 with H5973 Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah, H5418 and found H4672 him by H413 the great H7227 waters H4325 that H834 are in Gibeon. H1391
13 Now it came to pass, H1961 that when all H3605 the people H5971 which H834 were with H854 Ishmael H3458 saw H7200 H853 Johanan H3110 the son H1121 of Kareah, H7143 and all H3605 the captains H8269 of the forces H2428 that H834 were with H854 him , then they were glad. H8055
14 So all H3605 the people H5971 that H834 Ishmael H3458 had carried away captive H7617 from H4480 Mizpah H4709 cast about H5437 and returned, H7725 and went H1980 unto H413 Johanan H3110 the son H1121 of Kareah. H7143
15 But Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah H5418 escaped H4422 from H4480 H6440 Johanan H3110 with eight H8083 men, H376 and went H1980 to H413 the Ammonites H1121 H5983 .
16 Then took H3947 Johanan H3110 the son H1121 of Kareah, H7143 and all H3605 the captains H8269 of the forces H2428 that H834 were with H854 him, H853 all H3605 the remnant H7611 of the people H5971 whom H834 he had recovered H7725 from H4480 H854 Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah, H5418 from H4480 Mizpah, H4709 after H310 that he had slain H5221 H853 Gedaliah H1436 the son H1121 of Ahikam, H296 even mighty H1397 men H376 of war, H4421 and the women, H802 and the children, H2945 and the eunuchs, H5631 whom H834 he had brought again H7725 from Gibeon H4480 H1391 :
17 And they departed, H1980 and dwelt H3427 in the habitation H1628 of Chimham, H3643 which H834 is by H681 Bethlehem, H1035 to go H1980 to enter into H935 Egypt, H4714
18 Because H4480 H6440 of the Chaldeans: H3778 for H3588 they were afraid H3372 of H4480 H6440 them, because H3588 Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah H5418 had slain H5221 H853 Gedaliah H1436 the son H1121 of Ahikam, H296 whom H834 the king H4428 of Babylon H894 made governor H6485 in the land.
