| 1 καὶ ἐγένετο τῷ μηνὶ τῷ ἑβδόμῳ ἦλθεν Ισμαηλ υἱὸς Ναθανιου υἱοῦ Ελασα ἀπὸ γένους τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ δέκα ἄνδρες με{T'} αὐτοῦ πρὸς Γοδολιαν εἰς Μασσηφα καὶ ἔφαγον ἐκεῖ ἄρτον ἅμα 2 καὶ ἀνέστη Ισμαηλ καὶ οἱ δέκα ἄνδρες οἳ ἦσαν με{T'} αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπάταξαν τὸν Γοδολιαν ὃν κατέστησεν βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς 3 καὶ πάντας τοὺς Ιουδαίους τοὺς ὄντας με{T'} αὐτοῦ ἐν Μασσηφα καὶ πάντας τοὺς Χαλδαίους τοὺς εὑρεθέντας ἐκεῖ 4 καὶ ἐγένετο τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ δευτέρᾳ πατάξαντος αὐτοῦ τὸν Γοδολιαν καὶ ἄνθρωπος οὐκ ἔγνω 5 καὶ ἤλθοσαν ἄνδρες ἀπὸ Συχεμ καὶ ἀπὸ Σαλημ καὶ ἀπὸ Σαμαρείας ὀγδοήκοντα ἄνδρες ἐξυρημένοι πώγωνας καὶ διερρηγμένοι τὰ ἱμάτια καὶ κοπτόμενοι καὶ μαναα καὶ λίβανος ἐν χερσὶν αὐτῶν τοῦ εἰσενεγκεῖν εἰς οἶκον κυρίου 6 καὶ ἐξῆλθεν εἰς ἀπάντησιν αὐτοῖς Ισμαηλ αὐτοὶ ἐπορεύοντο καὶ ἔκλαιον καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς εἰσέλθετε πρὸς Γοδολιαν 7 καὶ ἐγένετο εἰσελθόντων αὐτῶν εἰς τὸ μέσον τῆς πόλεως ἔσφαξεν αὐτοὺς εἰς τὸ φρέαρ 8 καὶ δέκα ἄνδρες εὑρέθησαν ἐκεῖ καὶ εἶπαν τῷ Ισμαηλ μὴ ἀνέλῃς ἡμᾶς ὅτι εἰσὶν ἡμῖν θησαυροὶ ἐν ἀγρῷ πυροὶ καὶ κριθαί μέλι καὶ ἔλαιον καὶ παρῆλθεν καὶ οὐκ ἀνεῖλεν αὐτοὺς ἐν μέσῳ τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτῶν 9 καὶ τὸ φρέαρ εἰς ὃ ἔρριψεν ἐκεῖ Ισμαηλ πάντας οὓς ἐπάταξεν φρέαρ μέγα τοῦτό ἐστιν ὃ ἐποίησεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Ασα ἀπὸ προσώπου Βαασα βασιλέως Ισραηλ τοῦτο ἐνέπλησεν Ισμαηλ τραυματιῶν | 1 The seventh month had come; and now Ismahel, son of Nathanias, son of Elisama, one of the royal princes and the king’s vassals,[1] came with ten followers to Masphath, where Godolias was, and at Masphath they sat at table together. 2 There and then, at the sword’s point, Ismahel and his ten men put Godolias to death. So perished Godolias, son of Ahicam, son of Saphan, that held the king of Babylon’s warrant to rule the country. 3 Such Jews as were with Godolias at Masphath, such Chaldaean soldiers as he found there, Ismahel despatched at the same time. 4 And the day after Godolias’ murder, before the news of it was out, 5 came eighty pilgrims from Sichem, Silo, and Samaria, beards shaven, garments rent, in mourning all of them, with bloodless offerings and incense for the Lord’s temple. 6 Out came Ismahel son of Nathanias from Masphath to meet them, and wept ever as he went; Welcome, said he, from Godolias son of Ahicam! 7 And when they had reached the middle of the town, just by the cistern,[2] they were slain by Ismahel and his men; 8 all except ten of them, who pleaded for their lives and told Ismahel they had a hoard of wheat, barley, oil and honey hidden away under their lands; these were spared the fate of the rest. 9 When he slew the companions of Godolias, Ismahel had thrown their bodies into the cistern; it was one which king Asa had made to defend the place against Baasa, king of Israel; now, Ismahel’s massacre filled it to the brim. | 1 Et factum est in mense septimo, venit Ismahel filius Nathaniæ filii Elisama, de semine regali, et optimates regis, et decem viri cum eo, ad Godoliam filium Ahicam, in Masphath, et comederunt ibi panes simul in Masphath. 2 Surrexit autem Ismahel filius Nathaniæ, et decem viri qui cum eo erant, et percusserunt Godoliam filium Ahicam filii Saphan gladio, et interfecerunt eum quem præfecerat rex Babylonis terræ. 3 Omnes quoque Judæos qui erant cum Godolia in Masphath, et Chaldæos qui reperti sunt ibi, et viros bellatores, percussit Ismahel. 4 Secundo autem die postquam occiderat Godoliam, nullo adhuc sciente, 5 venerunt viri de Sichem, et de Silo, et de Samaria, octoginta viri, rasi barba, et scissis vestibus, et squallentes: et munera et thus habebant in manu, ut offerrent in domo Domini. 6 Egressus ergo Ismahel filius Nathaniæ in occursum eorum de Masphath, incedens et plorans ibat: cum autem occurrisset eis, dixit ad eos: Venite ad Godoliam filium Ahicam. 7 Qui cum venissent ad medium civitatis, interfecit eos Ismahel filius Nathaniæ circa medium laci, ipse et viri qui erant cum eo. 8 Decem autem viri reperti sunt inter eos, qui dixerunt ad Ismahel: Noli occidere nos, quia habemus thesauros in agro, frumenti, et hordei, et olei, et mellis: et cessavit, et non interfecit eos cum fratribus suis. 9 Lacus autem in quem projecerat Ismahel omnia cadavera virorum quos percussit propter Godoliam, ipse est quem fecit rex Asa propter Baasa regem Israël: ipsum replevit Ismahel filius Nathaniæ occisis. |
| 10 καὶ ἀπέστρεψεν Ισμαηλ πάντα τὸν λαὸν τὸν καταλειφθέντα εἰς Μασσηφα καὶ τὰς θυγατέρας τοῦ βασιλέως ἃς παρεκατέθετο ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος τῷ Γοδολια υἱῷ Αχικαμ καὶ ᾤχετο εἰς τὸ πέραν υἱῶν Αμμων 11 καὶ ἤκουσεν Ιωαναν υἱὸς Καρηε καὶ πάντες οἱ ἡγεμόνες τῆς δυνάμεως οἱ με{T'} αὐτοῦ πάντα τὰ κακά ἃ ἐποίησεν Ισμαηλ 12 καὶ ἤγαγον ἅπαν τὸ στρατόπεδον αὐτῶν καὶ ᾤχοντο πολεμεῖν αὐτὸν καὶ εὗρον αὐτὸν ἐπὶ ὕδατος πολλοῦ ἐν Γαβαων 13 καὶ ἐγένετο ὅτε εἶδον πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ὁ μετὰ Ισμαηλ τὸν Ιωαναν καὶ τοὺς ἡγεμόνας τῆς δυνάμεως τῆς με{T'} αὐτοῦ 14 καὶ ἀνέστρεψαν πρὸς Ιωαναν 15 καὶ Ισμαηλ ἐσώθη σὺν ὀκτὼ ἀνθρώποις καὶ ᾤχετο πρὸς τοὺς υἱοὺς Αμμων | 10 Thus there was no longer a remnant at Masphath; the king’s daughters, and all the other folk left there by Nabuzardan under the care of Godolias, Ismahel took off with him as his captives, and so would have marched away into the Ammonite country. 11 But Johanan, son of Caree, and the other army chieftains that were on his side, no sooner heard the ill news of what Ismahel had done 12 than they mustered all their men to give him battle, and caught up with him at the pool of Gabaon. 13 A welcome sight it was to Ismahel’s company, when they saw Johanan, son of Caree, and the other chieftains approaching; 14 back went all the prisoners to Masphath, and threw in their lot with Johanan instead; 15 Ismahel fled at the sight of him, and reached the Ammonite country with only eight men at his back. | 10 Et captivas duxit Ismahel omnes reliquias populi qui erant in Masphath, filias regis, et universum populum qui remanserat in Masphath, quos commendaverat Nabuzardan princeps militiæ, Godoliæ filio Ahicam: et cepit eos Ismahel filius Nathaniæ, et abiit ut transiret ad filios Ammon. 11 Audivit autem Johanan filius Caree, et omnes principes bellatorum qui erant cum eo, omne malum quod fecerat Ismahel filius Nathaniæ, 12 et assumptis universis viris, profecti sunt ut bellarent adversum Ismahel filium Nathaniæ: et invenerunt eum ad aquas multas quæ sunt in Gabaon. 13 Cumque vidisset omnis populus qui erat cum Ismahel Johanan filium Caree, et universos principes bellatorum qui erant cum eo, lætati sunt: 14 et reversus est omnis populus quem ceperat Ismahel, in Masphath, reversusque abiit ad Johanan filium Caree. 15 Ismahel autem filius Nathaniæ fugit cum octo viris a facie Johanan, et abiit ad filios Ammon. |
| 16 καὶ ἔλαβεν Ιωαναν καὶ πάντες οἱ ἡγεμόνες τῆς δυνάμεως οἱ με{T'} αὐτοῦ πάντας τοὺς καταλοίπους τοῦ λαοῦ οὕς ἀπέστρεψεν ἀπὸ Ισμαηλ δυνατοὺς ἄνδρας ἐν πολέμῳ καὶ τὰς γυναῖκας καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ καὶ τοὺς εὐνούχους οὓς ἀπέστρεψεν ἀπὸ Γαβαων 17 καὶ ᾤχοντο καὶ ἐκάθισαν ἐν Γαβηρω{Q-}χαμααμ τὴν πρὸς Βηθλεεμ τοῦ πορευθῆναι εἰσελθεῖν εἰς Αἴγυπτον 18 ἀπὸ προσώπου τῶν Χαλδαίων ὅτι ἐφοβήθησαν ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν ὅτι ἐπάταξεν Ισμαηλ τὸν Γοδολιαν ὃν κατέστησεν βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος ἐν τῇ γῇ | 16 Johanan and his fellow chieftains would not leave at Masphath this remnant they had rescued from Ismahel after the murder of Godolias; all the fighting men, the women and children, the eunuchs, who had returned with them from Gabaon. 17 They went off and made their home for a time at Chamaan, near Bethlehem, thinking to take refuge in Egypt 18 from the vengeance of the Chaldaeans. From these they had much to fear, now that Ismahel son of Nathanias had murdered Godolias son of Ahicam, the king of Babylon’s own representative in Juda. | 16 Tulit ergo Johanan filius Caree, et omnes principes bellatorum qui erant cum eo, universas reliquias vulgi quas reduxerat ab Ismahel filio Nathaniæ de Masphath, postquam percussit Godoliam filium Ahicam: fortes viros ad prælium, et mulieres, et pueros, et eunuchos, quos reduxerat de Gabaon. 17 Et abierunt, et sederunt peregrinantes in Chamaam, quæ est juxta Bethlehem, ut pergerent, et introirent Ægyptum, 18 a facie Chaldæorum: timebant enim eos, quia percusserat Ismahel filius Nathaniæ Godoliam filium Ahicam, quem præposuerat rex Babylonis in terra Juda. |
[1] This reads in the original, presumably by a copyist’s error, as if it meant that Ismahel was accompanied by some of the king’s vassals.
[2] Literally, ‘into the middle of the cistern’, a phrase which can hardly have been intended.
