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.וַיְהִ֣י בַּחֹ֣דֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִיעִ֗י בָּ֣א יִשְׁמָעֵ֣אל בֶּן נְתַנְיָ֣ה בֶן אֱלִישָׁמָ֣ע מִזֶּ֣רַע הַ֠מְּלוּכָה וְרַבֵּ֨י הַמֶּ֜לֶךְ וַעֲשָׂרָ֨ה אֲנָשִׁ֥ים אִתּ֛וֹ אֶל גְּדַלְיָ֥הוּ בֶן אֲחִיקָ֖ם הַמִּצְפָּ֑תָה וַיֹּ֨אכְלוּ שָׁ֥ם לֶ֛חֶם יַחְדָּ֖ו בַּמִּצְפָּֽה
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.וַיָּקָם֩ יִשְׁמָעֵ֨אל בֶּן נְתַנְיָ֜ה וַעֲשֶׂ֥רֶת הָאֲנָשִׁ֣ים אֲשֶׁר הָי֣וּ אִתּ֗וֹ וַ֠יַּכּוּ אֶת גְּדַלְיָ֨הוּ בֶן אֲחִיקָ֧ם בֶּן שָׁפָ֛ן בַּחֶ֖רֶב וַיָּ֣מֶת אֹת֑וֹ אֲשֶׁר הִפְקִ֥יד מֶֽלֶךְ בָּבֶ֖ל בָּאָֽרֶץ
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.וְאֵ֣ת כָּל הַיְּהוּדִ֗ים אֲשֶׁר הָי֨וּ אִתּ֤וֹ אֶת גְּדַלְיָ֨הוּ֙ בַּמִּצְפָּ֔ה וְאֶת הַכַּשְׂדִּ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֣ר נִמְצְאוּ שָׁ֑ם אֵ֚ת אַנְשֵׁ֣י הַמִּלְחָמָ֔ה הִכָּ֖ה יִשְׁמָעֵֽאל
⁴And it came to pass the second day after he had slain Gedaliah, and no man knew it,וַיְהִ֛י בַּיּ֥וֹם הַשֵּׁנִ֖י לְהָמִ֣ית אֶת גְּדַלְיָ֑הוּ וְאִ֖ישׁ לֹ֥א יָדָֽע
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.וַיָּבֹ֣אוּ אֲ֠נָשִׁים מִשְּׁכֶ֞ם מִשִּׁל֤וֹ וּמִשֹּֽׁמְרוֹן֙ שְׁמֹנִ֣ים אִ֔ישׁ מְגֻלְּחֵ֥י זָקָ֛ן וּקְרֻעֵ֥י בְגָדִ֖ים וּמִתְגֹּֽדְדִ֑ים וּמִנְחָ֤ה וּלְבוֹנָה֙ בְּיָדָ֔ם לְהָבִ֖יא בֵּ֥ית יְהוָֽה
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.וַ֠יֵּצֵא יִשְׁמָעֵ֨אל בֶּן נְתַנְיָ֤ה לִקְרָאתָם֙ מִן הַמִּצְפָּ֔ה הֹלֵ֥ךְ הָלֹ֖ךְ וּבֹכֶ֑ה וַֽיְהִי֙ כִּפְגֹ֣שׁ אֹתָ֔ם וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֲלֵיהֶ֔ם בֹּ֖אוּ אֶל גְּדַלְיָ֥הוּ בֶן אֲחִיקָֽם
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.וַיְהִ֕י כְּבוֹאָ֖ם אֶל תּ֣וֹךְ הָעִ֑יר וַיִּשְׁחָטֵ֞ם יִשְׁמָעֵ֤אל בֶּן נְתַנְיָה֙ אֶל תּ֣וֹךְ הַבּ֔וֹר ה֖וּא וְהָאֲנָשִׁ֥ים אֲשֶׁר אִתּֽוֹ
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.וַעֲשָׂרָ֨ה אֲנָשִׁ֜ים נִמְצְאוּ וַיֹּאמְר֤וּ אֶל יִשְׁמָעֵאל֙ אַל תְּמִתֵ֔נוּ כִּֽי יֶשׁ מַטְמֹנִים֙ בַּשָּׂדֶ֔ה חִטִּ֥ים וּשְׂעֹרִ֖ים וְשֶׁ֣מֶן וּדְבָ֑שׁ וַיֶּחְדַּ֕ל וְלֹ֥א הֱמִיתָ֖ם בְּת֥וֹךְ אֲחֵיהֶֽם
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.וְהַבּ֗וֹר אֲשֶׁר֩ הִשְׁלִ֨יךְ שָׁ֤ם יִשְׁמָעֵאל֙ אֵ֣ת כָּל פִּגְרֵ֣י הָאֲנָשִׁ֗ים אֲשֶׁ֤ר הִכָּה֙ בְּיַד גְּדַלְיָ֔הוּ ה֗וּא אֲשֶׁ֤ר עָשָׂה֙ הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ אָסָ֔א מִפְּנֵ֖י בַּעְשָׁ֣א מֶֽלֶךְ יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל אֹת֗וֹ מִלֵּ֛א יִשְׁמָעֵ֥אל בֶּן נְתַנְיָ֖הוּ חֲלָלִֽים
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.וַיִּ֣שְׁבְּ יִ֠שְׁמָעֵאל אֶת כָּל שְׁאֵרִ֨ית הָעָ֜ם אֲשֶׁ֣ר בַּמִּצְפָּ֗ה אֶת בְּנ֤וֹת הַמֶּ֨לֶךְ֙ וְאֶת כָּל הָעָם֙ הַנִּשְׁאָרִ֣ים בַּמִּצְפָּ֔ה אֲשֶׁ֣ר הִפְקִ֗יד נְבֽוּזַרְאֲדָן֙ רַב טַבָּחִ֔ים אֶת גְּדַלְיָ֖הוּ בֶּן אֲחִיקָ֑ם וַיִּשְׁבֵּם֙ יִשְׁמָעֵ֣אל בֶּן נְתַנְיָ֔ה וַיֵּ֕לֶךְ לַעֲבֹ֖ר אֶל בְּנֵ֥י עַמּֽוֹן
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,וַיִּשְׁמַע֙ יוֹחָנָ֣ן בֶּן קָרֵ֔חַ וְכָל שָׂרֵ֥י הַחֲיָלִ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֣ר אִתּ֑וֹ אֵ֤ת כָּל הָֽרָעָה֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָשָׂ֔ה יִשְׁמָעֵ֖אל בֶּן נְתַנְיָֽה
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.וַיִּקְחוּ֙ אֶת כָּל הָ֣אֲנָשִׁ֔ים וַיֵּ֣לְכ֔וּ לְהִלָּחֵ֖ם עִם יִשְׁמָעֵ֣אל בֶּן נְתַנְיָ֑ה וַיִּמְצְא֣וּ אֹת֔וֹ אֶל מַ֥יִם רַבִּ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר בְּגִבְעֽוֹן
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.וַיְהִ֗י כִּרְא֤וֹת כָּל הָעָם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֶת יִשְׁמָעֵ֔אל אֶת יֽוֹחָנָן֙ בֶּן קָרֵ֔חַ וְאֵ֛ת כָּל שָׂרֵ֥י הַחֲיָלִ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֣ר אִתּ֑וֹ וַיִּשְׂמָֽחוּ
¹⁴So all the people that Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah cast about and returned, and went unto Johanan the son of Kareah.וַיָּסֹ֨בּוּ֙ כָּל הָעָ֔ם אֲשֶׁר שָׁבָ֥ה יִשְׁמָעֵ֖אל מִן הַמִּצְפָּ֑ה וַיָּשֻׁ֨בוּ֙ וַיֵּ֣לְכ֔וּ אֶל יֽוֹחָנָ֖ן בֶּן קָרֵֽחַ
¹⁵But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the Ammonites.וְיִשְׁמָעֵ֣אל בֶּן נְתַנְיָ֗ה נִמְלַט֙ בִּשְׁמֹנָ֣ה אֲנָשִׁ֔ים מִפְּנֵ֖י יֽוֹחָנָ֑ן וַיֵּ֖לֶךְ אֶל בְּנֵ֥י עַמּֽוֹן
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:וַיִּקַּח֩ יוֹחָנָ֨ן בֶּן קָרֵ֜חַ וְכָל שָׂרֵ֧י הַחֲיָלִ֣ים אֲשֶׁר אִתּ֗וֹ אֵ֣ת כָּל שְׁאֵרִ֤ית הָעָם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר הֵ֠שִׁיב מֵאֵ֨ת יִשְׁמָעֵ֤אל בֶּן נְתַנְיָה֙ מִן הַמִּצְפָּ֔ה אַחַ֣ר הִכָּ֔ה אֶת גְּדַלְיָ֖ה בֶּן אֲחִיקָ֑ם גְּבָרִ֞ים אַנְשֵׁ֣י הַמִּלְחָמָ֗ה וְנָשִׁ֤ים וְטַף֙ וְסָ֣רִסִ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר הֵשִׁ֖יב מִגִּבְעֽוֹן
¹⁷And they departed, and dwelt in the habitation of Chimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt,וַיֵּלְכ֗וּ וַיֵּֽשְׁבוּ֙ בְּגֵר֣וּת כמוהם כִּמְהָ֔ם אֲשֶׁר אֵ֖צֶל לָ֑חֶם לָלֶ֖כֶת לָב֥וֹא מִצְרָֽיִם
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.מִפְּנֵי֙ הַכַּשְׂדִּ֔ים כִּ֥י יָרְא֖וּ מִפְּנֵיהֶ֑ם כִּֽי הִכָּ֞ה יִשְׁמָעֵ֣אל בֶּן נְתַנְיָ֗ה אֶת גְּדַלְיָ֨הוּ֙ בֶּן אֲחִיקָ֔ם אֲשֶׁר הִפְקִ֥יד מֶֽלֶךְ בָּבֶ֖ל בָּאָֽרֶץ
