| 1 No mês sétimo, Ismael, filho de Natanias, filho de Elisama, de linhagem real, um dos grandes do rei, e mais dez homens, foram ter com Godolias filho de Aicão, a Masfa, e comeram juntos. | 1 And it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ismahel the son of Nathanias, the son of Elisama of the royal blood, and the nobles of the king, and ten men with him, came to Godolias the son of Ahicam into Masphath: and they ate bread there together in Masphath. |
| 2 Nessa altura levantou-se Ismael filho de Natanias, mais os dez homens que com ele estavam, e feriram Godolias, filho de Aicão, filho de Safan, à espada. Mataram assim aquele que o rei de Babilônia tinha constituído governador do país. | 2 And Ismahel the son of Nathanias arose, and the ten men that were with him, and they struck Godolias the son of Ahicam, the son of Saphan with the sword, and slew him whom the king of Babylon had made governor over the land. |
| 3 Matou também Ismael todos os Judeus que estavam com Godolias em Masfa, e os Caldeus que lá foram encontrados, homens de guerra. | 3 Ismahel slew also all the Jews that were with Godolias in Masphath, and the Chaldeans that were found there, and the soldiers. |
| 4 Ao outro dia, depois que matou Godolias, sem ninguém ainda o saber | 4 And on the second day after he had killed Godolias, no man yet knowing it, |
| 5 chegaram uns homens de Siquém, de Silo e da Samaria, em número de oitenta, com a barba rapada, as vestes rasgadas e a pele retalhada, que traziam nas mãos incenso e ofertas para os apresentar na casa do Senhor. | 5 There came some from Sichem, and from Silo, and from Samaria, fourscore men, with their beards shaven, and their clothes rent, and mourning: and they had offerings and incense in their hand, to offer in the house of the Lord. |
| 6 Saindo, pois, de Masfa, a recebe-los, Ismael, filho de Natanias, ia andando e chorando. Quando chegou junto deles, disse-lhes: Vinde a Godolias, filho de Aicão. | 6 And Ismahel the son of Nathanias went forth from Masphath to meet them, weeping all along as he went: and when he had met them, he said to them: Come to Godolias, the son of Ahicam. |
| 7 Porém, quando eles chegaram ao meio da cidade, Ismael, filho de Natanias, com os homens que estavam com ele, matou-os (e lançou-os) no meio da cisterna. | 7 And when they were come to the midst of the city, Ismahel the son of Nathanias, slew them, and cast them into the midst of the pit, he and the men that were with him. |
| 8 Mas entre eles houve dez homens que disseram a Ismael: Não nos mates, porque temos nos campos provisões escondidas de trigo, de cevada, de azeite e de mel. Então deixou-os, não os matou com os seus irmãos. | 8 But ten men were found among them, that said to Ismahel : Kill us not: for we have stores in the field, of wheat, and barley, and oil, and honey. And he forbore, and slew them not with their brethren. |
| 9 A cisterna, em que Ismael lançou todos os cadáveres dos homens que matou por causa de Godolias, é a que fez o rei Asa por causa de Baasa, rei de Israel. Ismael, filho de Natanias, encheu-a de cadáveres. | 9 And the pit into which Ismahel cast all the dead bodies of the men whom he slew because of Godolias, is the same that king Asa made, for fear of Baasa the king of Israel: the same did Ismahel the son of Nathanias fill with them that were slain. |
| 10 Ismael levou presos todos os que do povo tinham ficado em Masfa, as filhas do rei e todo o povo que tinha ficado em Masfa, e que Nabuzardan, chefe da guarda, havia confiado a Godolias, filho de Aicão. Ismeal, filho de Natanias, levou-os cativos e partiu para passar aos filhos de Amon. | 10 Then Ismahel carried away captive all the remnant of the people that were in Masphath : the king's daughters, and all the people that remained in Masphath: whom Nabuzardan the general of the army had committed to Godolias the son of Ahicam. And Ismahel the son of Nathanias took them, and he departed, to go over to the children of Ammon. |
| 11 Mas Joanan, filho de Carée, e todos os oficiais do exército que estavam com ele, souberam de todo o mal que tinha feito Ismael, filho de Natanias. | 11 But Johanan the son of Caree, and all the captains of the fighting men that were with him, heard of the evil that Ismahel the son of Nathanias had done. |
| 12 Tomando consigo toda a sua gente, partiram a pelejar contra Ismael, filho de Natanias, e encontraram-no perto da grande piscina de Gabaon. | 12 And taking all the men, they went out to fight against Ismahel the son of Nathanias, and they found him by the great waters that are in Gabaon. |
| 13 Quando todo o povo que estava com Ismael viu Joanan, filho de Carée, e todos os oficiais do exército que estavam com ele, encheu-se de alegria. | 13 And when all the people that were with Ismahel, had seen Johanan the son of Caree, and all the captains of the fighting men that were with him, they rejoiced. |
| 14 E todo o povo, que Ismael tinha feito prisioneiro em Masfa, voltou para trás e juntou-se a Joanan, filho de Carée. | 14 And all the people whom Ismahel had taken, went back to Masphath: and they returned and went to Johanan the son of Caree. |
| 15 Mas Ismael, filho de Natanias, fugiu com oito homens, de Joanan, e passou-se aos filhos de Amon. | 15 But Ismahel the son of Nathanias fled with eight men, from the face of Johanan, and went to the children of Ammon. |
| 16 Joanan, filho de Carée, e todos os oficiais de guerra que estavam com ele, tomaram todos os que restavam da plebe, que Ismael, filho de Natanias, tinha levado de Masfa, depois que matou Godolias, filho de Aicão: homens de guerra, mulheres, crianças e eunucos, que tinham feito voltar de Gabaon. | 16 Then Johanan the son of Caree, and all the captains of the soldiers that were with him, took all the remnant of the people whom they had recovered from Ismahel the son of Nathanias, from Masphath, after that he had slain Godolias the son of Ahicam: valiant men for war, and the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought back from Gabaon: |
| 17 Foram-se dali, e estiveram de passagem em Camaão, que está ao pé de Belém, com o fim de passarem depois adiante e entrar no Egito, | 17 And they departed, and sat as sojourners in Chamaam, which is near Bethlehem: in order to go forward, and enter into Egypt, |
| 18 com medo dos Caldeus, que temiam por causa de Ismael, filho de Natanias, ter assassinado Godolias, filho de Aicão, que o rei de Babilônia tinha constituído governador da terra de Judá. | 18 From the face of the Chaldeans: for they were afraid of them, because Ismahel the son of Nathanias had slain Godolias the son of Ahicam, whom the king of Babylon had made governor in the land of Juda. |
