E il settimo mese, Ismael, figliuolo di Nethania, figliuolo di Elishama della stirpe reale e uno dei grandi del re, venne con dieci uomini, da Ghedalia, figliuolo di Ahikam, a Mitspa; e quivi, a Mitspa, mangiarono assieme. | Now it came about in the seventh month that Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the king's seed, having with him ten men, came to Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, in Mizpah; and they had a meal together in Mizpah. | Poi Ismael, figliuolo di Nethania, si levò coi dieci uomini ch’eran con lui, e colpirono con la spada Ghedalia, figliuolo di Ahikam, figliuolo di Shafam. Così fecero morire colui che il re di Babilonia aveva stabilito sul paese. | Then Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, and the ten men who were with him, got up, and attacking Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, with the sword, put to death him whom the king of Babylon had made ruler over the land. | Ismael uccise pure tutti i Giudei ch’erano con Ghedalia a Mitspa, e i Caldei, uomini di guerra, che si trovavan quivi. | And Ishmael put to death all the Jews who were with him, even with Gedaliah, at Mizpah, and the Chaldaean men of war. | Il giorno dopo ch’egli ebbe ucciso Ghedalia, prima che alcuno ne sapesse nulla, | Now on the second day after he had put Gedaliah to death, when no one had knowledge of it, | giunsero da Sichem, da Sciloh e da Samaria, ottanta uomini che avevano la barba rasa, le vesti stracciate e delle incisioni sul corpo; e avevano in mano delle offerte e dell’incenso per presentarli nella casa dell’Eterno. | Some people came from Shechem, from Shiloh and Samaria, eighty men, with the hair of their faces cut off and their clothing out of order, and with cuts on their bodies, and in their hands meal offerings and perfumes which they were taking to the house of the Lord. | E Ismael, figliuolo di Nethania, uscì loro incontro da Mitspa; e, camminando, piangeva; e come li ebbe incontrati, disse loro: "Venite da Ghedalia, figliuolo di Ahikam". | And Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, went out from Mizpah with the purpose of meeting them, weeping on his way: and it came about that when he was face to face with them he said, Come to Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam. | E quando furono entrati in mezzo alla città, Ismael, figliuolo di Nethania, assieme agli uomini che aveva seco, li scannò e li gettò nella cisterna. | And when they came inside the town, Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, and the men who were with him, put them to death and put their bodies into a deep hole. | Or fra quelli, ci furon dieci uomini, che dissero a Ismael: "Non ci uccidere, perché abbiamo nei campi delle provviste nascoste di grano, d’orzo, d’olio e di miele". Allora egli si trattenne, e non li mise a morte coi loro fratelli. | But there were ten men among them who said to Ishmael, Do not put us to death, for we have secret stores, in the country, of grain and oil and honey. So he did not put them to death with their countrymen. | Or la cisterna nella quale Ismael gettò tutti i cadaveri degli uomini ch’egli uccise con Ghedalia, è quella che il re Asa aveva fatta fare per tema di Baasa, re d’Israele; e Ismael, figliuolo di Nethania, la riempì di uccisi. | Now the hole into which Ishmael had put the dead bodies of the men whom he had put to death, was the great hole which Asa the king had made for fear of Baasha, king of Israel: and Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, made it full of the bodies of those who had been put to death. | Poi Ismael menò via prigionieri tutto il rimanente del popolo che si trovava a Mitspa: le figliuole del re, e tutto il popolo ch’era rimasto a Mitspa, e sul quale Nebuzaradan, capo delle guardie, aveva stabilito Ghedalia, figliuolo di Ahikam; Ismael, figliuolo di Nethania, li menò via prigionieri, e partì per recarsi dagli Ammoniti. | Then Ishmael took away as prisoners all the rest of the people who were in Mizpah, the king's daughters and all the people still in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, had put under the care of Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam: Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, took them away prisoners with the purpose of going over to the children of Ammon. | Ma quando Johanan, figliuolo di Kareah, e tutti i capi delle forze ch’eran con lui furono informati di tutto il male che Ismael, figliuolo di Nethania, aveva fatto, | But when Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the armed forces who were with him, had news of all the evil which Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, had done, | presero tutti gli uomini, e andarono a combattere contro Ismael, figliuolo di Nethania; e lo trovarono presso le grandi acque che sono a Gabaon. | They took their men and went out to make war on Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, and they came face to face with him by the great waters in Gibeon. | E quando tutto il popolo ch’era con Ismael vide Johanan, figliuolo di Kareah, e tutti i capi delle forze ch’erano con lui, si rallegrò; | Now when all the people who were with Ishmael saw Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces with him, then they were glad. | e tutto il popolo che Ismael aveva menato prigioniero da Mitspa fece voltafaccia, e andò a unirsi a Johanan, figliuolo di Kareah. | And all the people whom Ishmael had taken away prisoners from Mizpah, turning round, came back and went to Johanan, the son of Kareah. | Ma Ismael, figliuolo di Nethania, scampò con otto uomini d’innanzi a Johanan, e se ne andò fra gli Ammoniti. | But Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, got away from Johanan, with eight men, and went to the children of Ammon. | E Johanan, figliuolo di Kareah, e tutti i capi delle forze ch’erano con lui, presero tutto il rimanente del popolo, che Ismael, figliuolo di Nethania, aveva menati via da Mitspa, dopo ch’egli ebbe ucciso Ghedalia, figliuolo d’Ahikam: uomini, gente di guerra, donne, fanciulli, eunuchi; e li ricondussero da Gabaon; | Then Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, took all the rest of the people whom Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, had made prisoners, after he had put to death Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the people from Mizpah, that is, the men of war and the women and the children and the unsexed servants, whom he had taken back with him from Gibeon: | e partirono, e si fermarono a Geruth-Kimham presso Bethlehem, per poi continuare e recarsi in Egitto, | And they went and were living in the resting-place of Chimham, which is near Beth-lehem on the way into Egypt, | a motivo de’ Caldei dei quali avevano paura, perché Ismael, figliuolo di Nethania, aveva ucciso Ghedalia figliuolo di Ahikam, che il re di Babilonia aveva stabilito sul paese. | Because of the Chaldaeans: for they were in fear of them because Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, had put to death Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had made ruler over the land. |
