“Go, and speak to Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying, ‘Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I will bring my words on this city for evil, and not for good; and they will be accomplished before you in that day.

Go H1980 (QalInf) and speak H559 (QalPerf) to Ebedmelech H5663 the Ethiopian, H3569 saying, H559 (QalInf) Thus saith H559 (QalPerf) the Lord H3068 of hosts, H6635 the God H430 of Israel; H3478 Behold, I will bring H935 (HiphPtc) my words H1697 upon this city H5892 for evil, H7451 and not for good; H2896 and they shall be [accomplished] in that day H3117 before H6440 thee.

‘Go, and thou hast spoken to Ebed-Melech the Cushite, saying: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel: Lo, I am bringing in My words unto this city for evil, and not for good, and they have been before thee in that day.

And now, behold, I loose H6605 (PielPerf) thee this day H3117 from the chains H246 which [were] upon thine hand. H3027 If it seem good H2896 H5869 unto thee to come H935 (QalInf) with me into Babylon, H894 come; H935 (QalImpv) and I will look well H7760 (QalImpf) H5869 unto thee: but if it seem ill H7489 (QalPerf) H5869 unto thee to come H935 (QalInf) with me into Babylon, H894 forbear: H2308 (QalImpv) behold, H7200 (QalImpv) all the land H776 [is] before H6440 thee: whither it seemeth H413 good H2896 and convenient H3477 H5869 for thee to go, H3212 (QalInf) thither go. H3212 (QalImpv)

‘And now, lo, I have loosed thee to-day from the chains that are on thy hand; if good in thine eyes to come with me to Babylon, come, and I keep mine eye upon thee: and if evil in thine eyes to come with me to Babylon, forbear; see, all the land is before thee, whither it be good, and whither it be right in thine eyes to go-go.’-

Now while he had not yet gone back, “Go back then,” he said, “to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon has made governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people; or go wherever it seems right to you to go.” So the captain of the guard gave him food and a present, and let him go.

Now while he was not yet gone back, H7725 (QalImpf) [he said], Go back H7725 (QalImpv) also to Gedaliah H1436 the son H1121 of Ahikam H296 the son H1121 of Shaphan, H8227 whom the king H4428 of Babylon H894 hath made governor H6485 (HiphPerf) over the cities H5892 of Judah, H3063 and dwell H3427 (QalImpv) with him among H8432 the people: H5971 or go H3212 (QalImpv) wheresoever it seemeth convenient H3477 H5869 unto thee to go. H3212 (QalInf) So the captain H7227 of the guard H2876 gave H5414 (QalImpf) him victuals H737 and a reward, H4864 and let him go. H7971 (PielImpf)

and while he doth not reply-‘Or turn back unto Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon hath appointed over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him in the midst of the people, or whithersoever it is right in thine eyes to go-go.’ And the chief of the executioners giveth to him for the way, and a gift, and sendeth him away,

Then Johanan the son of Kareah spoke to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, saying, “Please let me go, and I will kill Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and no man will know it. Why should he take your life, that all the Jews who are gathered to you should be scattered, and the remnant of Judah perish?”

Then Johanan H3110 the son H1121 of Kareah H7143 spake H559 (QalPerf) to Gedaliah H1436 in Mizpah H4709 secretly, H5643 saying, H559 (QalInf) Let me go, H3212 (QalImpf) I pray thee, and I will slay H5221 (HiphImpf) Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah, H5418 and no man H376 shall know H3045 (QalImpf) [it]: wherefore should he slay H5221 (HiphImpf) H5315 thee, that all the Jews H3064 which are gathered H6908 (NiphPtc) unto thee should be scattered, H6327 (NiphPerf) and the remnant H7611 in Judah H3063 perish? H6 (QalPerf)

And Johanan son of Kareah hath spoken unto Gedaliah in secret, in Mizpah, saying, ‘Let me go, I pray thee, and I smite Ishmael son of Nethaniah, and no one doth know; why doth he smite thy soul? and scattered have been all Judah who are gathered unto thee, and perished hath the remnant of Judah.’

Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went out from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went, and as he met them, he said to them, “Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam.”

And Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah H5418 went forth H3318 (QalImpf) from Mizpah H4709 to meet H7125 (QalInf) them, weeping H1058 (QalActPtc) all along H1980 (QalInf) as he went: H1980 (QalActPtc) and it came to pass, as he met H6298 (QalInf) them, he said H559 (QalImpf) unto them, Come H935 (QalImpv) to Gedaliah H1436 the son H1121 of Ahikam. H296

And Ishmael son of Nethaniah goeth forth to meet them, from Mizpah, going on and weeping, and it cometh to pass, at meeting them, that he saith unto them, ‘Come in unto Gedaliah son of Ahikam.’

Then Ishmael carried away captive all of the people who were left in Mizpah, even the king’s daughters, and all the people who remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had committed to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam. Ishmael the son of Nethaniah carried them away captive, and departed to go over to the children of Ammon.

Then Ishmael H3458 carried away captive H7617 (QalImpf) all the residue H7611 of the people H5971 that [were] in Mizpah, H4709 [even] the king’s H4428 daughters, H1323 and all the people H5971 that remained H7604 (NiphPtc) in Mizpah, H4709 whom Nebuzaradan H5018 the captain H7227 of the guard H2876 had committed H6485 (HiphPerf) to Gedaliah H1436 the son H1121 of Ahikam: H296 and Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah H5418 carried them away captive, H7617 (QalImpf) and departed H3212 (QalImpf) to go over H5674 (QalInf) to the Ammonites. H1121 H5983

And Ishmael taketh captive all the remnant of the people who are in Mizpah, the daughters of the king, and all the people who are left in Mizpah, whom Nebuzar-Adan, chief of the executioners, hath committed to Gedaliah son of Ahikam, and Ishmael son of Nethaniah taketh them captive, and goeth to pass over unto the sons of Ammon.

then they took all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and found him by the great waters that are in Gibeon.

Then they took H3947 (QalImpf) all the men, H582 and went H3212 (QalImpf) to fight H3898 (NiphInf) with Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah, H5418 and found H4672 (QalImpf) him by the great H7227 waters H4325 that [are] in Gibeon. H1391

and they take all the men, and go to fight with Ishmael son of Nethaniah, and they find him at the great waters that are in Gibeon.

So all the people who Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah turned about and came back, and went to Johanan the son of Kareah.

So all the people H5971 that Ishmael H3458 had carried away captive H7617 (QalPerf) from Mizpah H4709 cast about H5437 (QalImpf) and returned, H7725 (QalImpf) and went H3212 (QalImpf) unto Johanan H3110 the son H1121 of Kareah. H7143

And all the people whom Ishmael hath taken captive from Mizpah turn round, yea, they turn back, and go unto Johanan son of Kareah.

But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the children of Ammon.

But Ishmael H3458 the son H1121 of Nethaniah H5418 escaped H4422 (NiphPerf) from H6440 Johanan H3110 with eight H8083 men, H582 and went H3212 (QalImpf) to the Ammonites. H1121 H5983

And Ishmael son of Nethaniah hath escaped, with eight men, from the presence of Johanan, and he goeth unto the sons of Ammon.

They departed and lived in Geruth Chimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt

And they departed, H3212 (QalImpf) and dwelt in H3427 (QalImpf) the habitation H1628 of Chimham, H3643 which is by H681 Bethlehem, H1035 to go H3212 (QalInf) to enter H935 (QalInf) into Egypt, H4714

and they go and abide in the habitations of Chimham, that are near Beth-Lehem, to go to enter Egypt,

that Yahweh your God may show us the way in which we should walk, and the things that we should do.”

That the Lord H3068 thy God H430 may shew H5046 (HiphImpf) us the way H1870 wherein we may walk, H3212 (QalImpf) and the thing H1697 that we may do. H6213 (QalImpf)
