Jeremías 41
Biblia del Jubileo
41 Y aconteció en el mes séptimo, que vino Ismael, hijo de Netanías, hijo de Elisama, de la simiente real, y algunos príncipes del rey, y diez hombres con él, a Gedalías hijo de Ahicam en Mizpa; y comieron pan juntos allí en Mizpa.
2 Y se levantó Ismael, hijo de Netanías, y los diez hombres que con él estaban, e hirieron a espada a Gedalías, hijo de Ahicam, hijo de Safán, matando así a aquel a quien el rey de Babilonia había puesto sobre la tierra.
3 Asimismo hirió Ismael a todos los judíos que estaban con él, con Gedalías en Mizpa, y a los soldados caldeos que allí se hallaron.
4 Sucedió además, un día después que mató a Gedalías, cuando nadie lo sabía aún,
5 que venían unos hombres de Siquem, de Silo y de Samaria, ochenta hombres, raída la barba, rotas las ropas, y arañados y traían en sus manos ofrenda y perfume para llevar a la Casa del SEÑOR.
6 Y de Mizpa les salió al encuentro, llorando, Ismael, hijo de Netanías; y aconteció que como los encontró, les dijo: Venid a Gedalías, hijo de Ahicam.
7 Y fue que cuando llegaron al medio de la ciudad, Ismael, hijo de Netanías, los degolló, y los echó en medio de un aljibe, él y los varones que estaban con él.
8 Mas entre aquellos fueron hallados diez hombres que dijeron a Ismael: No nos mates; porque tenemos en el campo tesoros de trigo, cebada, aceite, y miel. Y los dejó, y no los mató entre sus hermanos.
9 Y el aljibe en que echó Ismael todos los cuerpos de los varones que hirió por causa de Gedalías, era el mismo que había hecho el rey Asa por causa de Baasa, rey de Israel; lo llenó de muertos Ismael, hijo de Netanías.
10 Después llevó Ismael cautivo a todo el resto del pueblo que estaba en Mizpa; a las hijas del rey, y a todo el pueblo que en Mizpa había quedado, el cual había encargado Nabuzaradán capitán de la guardia a Gedalías hijo de Ahicam. Los llevó, pues, cautivos Ismael hijo de Netanías, y se fue para pasarse a los hijos de Amón.
11 Y oyó Johanán, hijo de Carea, y todos los príncipes de los ejércitos que estaban con él, todo el mal que hizo Ismael, hijo de Netanías.
12 Entonces tomaron todos los varones, y fueron a pelear con Ismael hijo de Netanías, y lo hallaron junto a Aguas-muchas, que es en Gabaón.
13 Y aconteció que cuando todo el pueblo que estaba con Ismael oyó a Johanán, hijo de Carea, y a todos los príncipes de los ejércitos que venían con él, se alegraron.
14 Y todo el pueblo que Ismael había traído cautivo de Mizpa, tornaron, y volvieron, y se fueron a Johanán, hijo de Carea.
15 Pero Ismael hijo de Netanías se escapó delante de Johanán con ocho hombres, y se fue a los hijos de Amón.
16 Y Johanán, hijo de Carea, y todos los príncipes de los ejércitos que con él estaban, tomaron a todo el resto del pueblo que habían tornado de Ismael, hijo de Netanías, de Mizpa, después que hirió a Gedalías, hijo de Ahicam; hombres de guerra, mujeres, niños, y los eunucos que Johanán había hecho tornar de Gabaón;
17 y fueron y habitaron en Gerut-quimam, que es cerca de Belén, a fin de ir y meterse en Egipto,
18 por causa de los caldeos; porque temían de ellos, por haber herido Ismael, hijo de Netanías, a Gedalías, hijo de Ahicam, al cual el rey de Babilonia había puesto sobre la tierra.

Insurrection Against Gedaliah
41 Now it came to pass in the seventh month (A)that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the royal [a]family and of the officers of the king, came with ten men to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, at (B)Mizpah. And there they ate bread together in Mizpah. 2 Then Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and the ten men who were with him, arose and (C)struck Gedaliah the son of (D)Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, with the sword, and killed him whom the king of Babylon had made (E)governor over the land. 3 Ishmael also struck down all the Jews who were with him, that is, with Gedaliah at Mizpah, and the Chaldeans who were found there, the men of war.
4 And it happened, on the second day after he had killed Gedaliah, when as yet no one knew it, 5 that certain men came from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, eighty men (F)with their beards shaved and their clothes torn, having cut themselves, with offerings and incense in their hand, to bring them to (G)the house of the Lord. 6 Now Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went out from Mizpah to meet them, weeping as he went along; and it happened as he met them that he said to them, “Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam!” 7 So it was, when they came into the midst of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah (H)killed them and cast them into the midst of a [b]pit, he and the men who were with him. 8 But ten men were found among them who said to Ishmael, “Do not kill us, for we have treasures of wheat, barley, oil, and honey in the field.” So he desisted and did not kill them among their brethren. 9 Now the [c]pit into which Ishmael had cast all the dead bodies of the men whom he had slain, because of Gedaliah, was (I)the same one Asa the king had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel. Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with the slain. 10 Then Ishmael carried away captive all the (J)rest of the people who were in Mizpah, (K)the king’s daughters and all the people who remained in Mizpah, (L)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 (M)the Ammonites.
11 But when (N)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, 12 they took all the men and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethaniah; and they found him by (O)the great pool that is in Gibeon. 13 So it was, when all the people who were with Ishmael saw Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, that they were glad. 14 Then all the people whom Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah turned around and came back, and went to Johanan the son of Kareah. 15 But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men and went to the Ammonites.
16 Then Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, took from Mizpah all the (P)rest of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethaniah after he had murdered Gedaliah the son of Ahikam—the mighty men of war and the women and the children and the eunuchs, whom he had brought back from Gibeon. 17 And they departed and dwelt in the habitation of (Q)Chimham, which is near Bethlehem, as they went on their way to (R)Egypt, 18 because of the Chaldeans; for they were afraid of them, because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had murdered Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, (S)whom the king of Babylon had made governor in the land.

New International Version
41 In the seventh month Ishmael(A) son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, who was of royal blood and had been one of the king’s officers, came with ten men to Gedaliah son of Ahikam at Mizpah. While they were eating together there, 2 Ishmael(B) son of Nethaniah and the ten men who were with him got up and struck down Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, with the sword,(C) killing the one whom the king of Babylon had appointed(D) as governor over the land.(E) 3 Ishmael also killed all the men of Judah who were with Gedaliah at Mizpah, as well as the Babylonian[a] soldiers who were there.
4 The day after Gedaliah’s assassination, before anyone knew about it, 5 eighty men who had shaved off their beards,(F) torn their clothes(G) and cut(H) themselves came from Shechem,(I) Shiloh(J) and Samaria,(K) bringing grain offerings and incense(L) with them to the house of the Lord.(M) 6 Ishmael son of Nethaniah went out from Mizpah to meet them, weeping(N) as he went. When he met them, he said, “Come to Gedaliah son of Ahikam.”(O) 7 When they went into the city, Ishmael son of Nethaniah and the men who were with him slaughtered them and threw them into a cistern.(P) 8 But ten of them said to Ishmael, “Don’t kill us! We have wheat and barley, olive oil and honey, hidden in a field.”(Q) So he let them alone and did not kill them with the others. 9 Now the cistern where he threw all the bodies of the men he had killed along with Gedaliah was the one King Asa(R) had made as part of his defense(S) against Baasha(T) king of Israel. Ishmael son of Nethaniah filled it with the dead.
10 Ishmael made captives of all the rest of the people(U) who were in Mizpah—the king’s daughters(V) along with all the others who were left there, over whom Nebuzaradan commander of the imperial guard had appointed Gedaliah son of Ahikam. Ishmael son of Nethaniah took them captive and set out to cross over to the Ammonites.(W)
11 When Johanan(X) son of Kareah and all the army officers who were with him heard about all the crimes Ishmael son of Nethaniah had committed, 12 they took all their men and went to fight(Y) Ishmael son of Nethaniah. They caught up with him near the great pool(Z) in Gibeon. 13 When all the people(AA) Ishmael had with him saw Johanan son of Kareah and the army officers who were with him, they were glad. 14 All the people Ishmael had taken captive at Mizpah(AB) turned and went over to Johanan son of Kareah. 15 But Ishmael son of Nethaniah and eight of his men escaped(AC) from Johanan and fled to the Ammonites.
Flight to Egypt
16 Then Johanan son of Kareah and all the army officers(AD) who were with him led away all the people of Mizpah who had survived,(AE) whom Johanan had recovered from Ishmael son of Nethaniah after Ishmael had assassinated Gedaliah son of Ahikam—the soldiers, women, children and court officials he had recovered from Gibeon. 17 And they went on, stopping at Geruth Kimham(AF) near Bethlehem(AG) on their way to Egypt(AH) 18 to escape the Babylonians.[b] They were afraid(AI) of them because Ishmael son of Nethaniah had killed Gedaliah(AJ) son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had appointed as governor over the land.
