RF JER 41:1 But in the seventh month, Ishmael-ben-Nathaniah-ben-Alishama, of the Royal Family, and a royal noble came, and ten men with him, to Ghedaliah-ben-Akhikam, at Mitzfah, and dined with him in Mitzfah.
RF JER 41:2 Then Ishmael-ben-Nathaniah and the ten men who were with him arose and assailed Ghedaliah-ben-Akhikam-ben-Shafan with the sword and killed him, whom the king of Babel had appointed over the country,
RF JER 41:3 and the whole of the Jews who were with Ghedaliah in Mitzfah, along with the Kasdim found there, the soldiers of Ishmael killed.
RF JER 41:4 But two days after the murder of Ghedaliah, while no one knew,
RF JER 41:5 it happened that eighty men came from Shekem, from Shiloh, and from Shomeron, each with his beard shaven, and clothes torn, and with gashes, and with bread offerings and incense in their hands to go to the House of the EVER-LIVING,
RF JER 41:6 and Ishmael-ben-Nathaniah went out from Mitzfah to meet them, advancing and weeping, and when he reached them he said, "Come to Ghedaliah-ben-Akhikam."
RF JER 41:7 But when they had come to the inner court of the citadel, Ishmael-ben-Nathaniah and the men who were with him, assassinated them at the deep well.
RF JER 41:8 Ten of the men, however, who had met him, exclaimed to Ishmael, "Do not kill us! for we have wheat, and barley, and oil, and honey stored at our farms." So he refrained, and did not kill them with their friends.
RF JER 41:9 The well where Ishmael threw all the bodies of the men he murdered, besides Ghedaliah, was that which King Asa made when opposing Basha king of Israel,—Ishmael-ben-Nathaniah filled it with his victims.
RF JER 41:10 Then Ishmael captured all the remainder of the people who were at Mitzfah, the king's daughter and all the people whom Nebuzaradan, the commander of the guards, had entrusted to Ghedaliah-ben-Akhikam,—Ishmael-ben-Nathaniah seized them and went off to Beni-Amon.
RF JER 41:11 But Jokhanan-ben-Korakh and all the generals of the forces who were with him heard of all the wickedness that Ishmael-ben-Nathaniah had done,
RF JER 41:12 so they took their men and went to attack Ishmael ben Nathaniah, and found him at the Great Lake of Gibeon.
RF JER 41:13 And when the people who were with Ishmael-ben-Nathaniah saw Jokhanan-ben-Korakh, and the officers of the army, they were glad;
RF JER 41:14 and the whole mass whom Ishmael had captured at Mitzfah revolted, and deserted, and went to Jokhanan-ben-Korakh.
RF JER 41:15 At which Ishmael-ben-Nathaniah fled with eight men before Jokhanan, and went to the Beni-Amon.
RF JER 41:16 So Jokhanan-ben-Korakh and all the army officers with him took the remainder of the people whom Ishmael-ben-Nathaniah had captured at Mitzfah, after he murdered Ghedaliah-ben-Akhikam, the capable soldiers, and the women and children, and their attendants, whom he had captured at Gibeon,
RF JER 41:17 and went and retreated to the Caravanserai of Kimoham, near Bethlehem, with the object of marching to Mitzer,
RF JER 41:18 from the presence of the Kasdim. For they were afraid of them, because Ishmael-ben-Nethaniah had assassinated Ghedaliah-ben-Akhikam, whom the king of Babel had appointed over the country.
