Jeremiah 41

ECB(i) 1
GEDAL YAH EXECUTED
And so be it, in the seventh month, Yishma El the son of Nethan Yah the son of Eli Shama of the seed of the sovereigndom, and the rabbis of the sovereign with ten men, go to Gedal Yah the son of Ahikam to Mispeh; and there they eat bread together in Mispeh. 2 And Yishma El the son of Nethan Yah with the ten men rise and smite Gedal Yah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan with the sword; and execute him whom the sovereign of Babel made overseer over the land. 3 And Yishma El smites all the Yah Hudiym with him - with Gedal Yah at Mispeh - with the Kesediym they found there and the men of war. 4 And so be it, the second day after he executes Gedal Yah - and no man knows, 5 men come from Shechem from Shiloh and from Shomeron - eighty men with beards shaven and clothes ripped, and having incised - with offerings and incense in their hand to bring to the house of Yah Veh. 6 And Yishma El the son of Nethan Yah goes from Mispeh to meet them - weeping and walking as he goes: and so be it, as he meets them, he says to them, Come to Gedal Yah the son of Ahikam. 7 And so be it, they come midst the city, and Yishma El the son of Nethan Yah slaughters them midst the well - he and the men with him. 8 And they find ten men among them who say to Yishma El, Execute us not: for we hid treasures in the field - of wheat and of barley and of oil and of honey. - and he ceases and slaughters them not among their brothers. 9 And the well wherein Yishma El cast all the carcases of the men, whom he smote under the hand of Gedal Yah, was the one Asa the sovereign worked at the face of Basha sovereign of Yisra El: Yishma El the son of Nethan Yah fills it with the pierced: 10 and Yishma El captures all the survivors of the people in Mispeh - the daughters of the sovereign and all the people who survived in Mispeh; whom Nebu Zaradan the rabbi slaughterer mustered to Gedal Yah the son of Ahikam: and Yishma El the son of Nethan Yah captures them, and goes to pass over to the sons of Ammon. 11
YAH HANAN RESCUES THE PEOPLE
And Yah Hanan the son of Qareach and all the governors of the valiant with him hear of all the evil Yishma El the son of Nethan Yah works: 12 and they take all the men, and go to fight with Yishma El the son of Nethan Yah: and they find him by the great waters in Gibon. 13 And so be it, all the people with Yishma El see Yah Hanan the son of Qareach and all the governors of the valiant with him, and they cheer: 14 and all the people Yishma El captured from Mispeh turn around and return and go to Yah Hanan the son of Qareach: 15 and Yishma El the son of Nethan Yah escapes from the face of Yah Hanan with eight men and goes to the sons of Ammon. 16 And Yah Hanan the son of Qareach and all the governors of the valiant with him take all the survivors of the people whom he returned from Yishma El the son of Nethan Yah - from Mispeh, after he smote Gedal Yah the son of Ahikam - mighty men of war; and the women and the children and the eunuchs whom he returned from Gibon: 17 and they depart and settle in the inn of Kimham beside Beth Lechem - to go to enter Misrayim 18 from the face of the Kesediym: for they awed at their face, because Yishma El the son of Nethan Yah smote Gedal Yah the son of Ahikam whom the sovereign of Babel made overseer in the land.
