40 Y gair yr hwn a ddaeth at Jeremeia oddi wrth yr Arglwydd, wedi i Nebusaradan pennaeth y milwyr ei ollwng ef yn rhydd o Rama, wedi iddo ei gymryd ef, ac yntau yn rhwym mewn cadwyni ymysg holl gaethglud Jerwsalem a Jwda, y rhai a gaethgludasid i Babilon. 2 A phennaeth y milwyr a gymerodd Jeremeia, ac a ddywedodd wrtho, Yr Arglwydd dy Dduw a lefarodd y drwg yma yn erbyn y lle hwn. 3 A’r Arglwydd a’i dug i ben, ac a wnaeth megis y llefarodd: am i chwi bechu yn erbyn yr Arglwydd, ac na wrandawsoch ar ei lais ef, am hynny y daeth y peth hyn i chwi. 4 Ac yn awr wele, mi a’th ryddheais di heddiw o’r cadwynau oedd am dy ddwylo: os da gennyt ti ddyfod gyda mi i Babilon, tyred, a myfi a fyddaf da wrthyt: ond os drwg y gweli ddyfod gyda mi i Babilon, paid; wele yr holl dir o’th flaen di: i’r fan y byddo da a bodlon gennyt fyned, yno dos. 5 Ac yn awr, ac efe eto heb ddychwelyd, efe a ddywedodd, Dychwel at Gedaleia mab Ahicam, mab Saffan, yr hwn a osododd brenin Babilon ar ddinasoedd Jwda, ac aros gydag ef ymhlith y bobl: neu dos lle y gwelych di yn dda fyned. Felly pennaeth y milwyr a roddodd iddo ef luniaeth a rhodd, ac a’i gollyngodd ef ymaith. 6 Yna yr aeth Jeremeia at Gedaleia mab Ahicam i Mispa, ac a arhosodd gydag ef ymysg y bobl a adawsid yn y wlad.
7 A phan glybu holl dywysogion y lluoedd, y rhai oedd ar hyd y wlad, hwynt‐hwy a’u gwŷr, i frenin Babilon osod Gedaleia mab Ahicam ar y wlad, ac iddo roddi dan ei law ef wŷr, a gwragedd, a phlant, ac o dlodion y wlad, o’r rhai ni chaethgludasid i Babilon; 8 Yna hwy a ddaethant at Gedaleia i Mispa, sef Ismael mab Nethaneia, a Johanan a Jonathan meibion Carea, a Seraia mab Tanhumeth, a meibion Effai y Netoffathiad, a Jesaneia mab Maachathiad, hwynt‐hwy a’u gwŷr. 9 A Gedaleia mab Ahicam mab Saffan a dyngodd wrthynt hwy, ac wrth eu gwŷr, gan ddywedyd, Nac ofnwch wasanaethu y Caldeaid: trigwch yn y wlad, a gwasanaethwch frenin Babilon, felly y bydd daioni i chwi. 10 Amdanaf finnau, wele, mi a drigaf ym Mispa, i wasanaethu y Caldeaid, y rhai a ddeuant atom ni: chwithau, cesglwch win, a ffrwythydd haf, ac olew, a dodwch hwynt yn eich llestri, a thrigwch yn eich dinasoedd, y rhai yr ydych yn eu meddiannu. 11 A phan glybu yr holl Iddewon y rhai oedd ym Moab, ac ymysg meibion Ammon, ac yn Edom, ac yn yr holl wledydd, i frenin Babilon adael gweddill o Jwda, a gosod Gedaleia mab Ahicam mab Saffan yn llywydd arnynt hwy; 12 Yna yr holl Iddewon a ddychwelasant o’r holl leoedd lle y gyrasid hwynt, ac a ddaethant i wlad Jwda at Gedaleia i Mispa, ac a gasglasant win o ffrwythydd haf lawer iawn.
13 Johanan hefyd mab Carea, a holl dywysogion y lluoedd y rhai oedd ar hyd y wlad, a ddaethant at Gedaleia i Mispa, 14 Ac a ddywedasant wrtho, A wyddost ti yn hysbys i Baalis, brenin meibion Ammon, anfon Ismael mab Nethaneia i’th ladd di? Ond ni chredodd Gedaleia mab Ahicam iddynt hwy. 15 Yna Johanan mab Carea a ddywedodd wrth Gedaleia ym Mispa yn gyfrinachol, gan ddywedyd, Gad i mi fyned, atolwg, a mi a laddaf Ismael mab Nethaneia, ac ni chaiff neb wybod: paham y lladdai efe di, fel y gwasgerid yr holl Iddewon y rhai a ymgasglasant atat ti, ac y darfyddai am y gweddill yn Jwda? 16 Ond Gedaleia mab Ahicam a ddywedodd wrth Johanan mab Carea, Na wna y peth hyn: canys celwydd yr ydwyt ti yn ei ddywedyd am Ismael.

Jeremiah Freed
40 The word came to Jeremiah from the Lord after Nebuzaradan commander of the imperial guard had released him at Ramah.(A) He had found Jeremiah bound in chains among all the captives(B) from Jerusalem and Judah who were being carried into exile to Babylon. 2 When the commander(C) of the guard found Jeremiah, he said to him, “The Lord your God decreed(D) this disaster(E) for this place.(F) 3 And now the Lord has brought it about; he has done just as he said he would. All this happened because you people sinned(G) against the Lord and did not obey(H) him. 4 But today I am freeing(I) you from the chains(J) on your wrists. Come with me to Babylon, if you like, and I will look after you; but if you do not want to, then don’t come. Look, the whole country lies before you; go wherever you please.”(K) 5 However, before Jeremiah turned to go,[a] Nebuzaradan added, “Go back to Gedaliah(L) son of Ahikam,(M) the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon has appointed(N) over the towns(O) of Judah, and live with him among the people, or go anywhere else you please.”(P)
Then the commander gave him provisions and a present(Q) and let him go. 6 So Jeremiah went to Gedaliah son of Ahikam at Mizpah(R) and stayed with him among the people who were left behind in the land.
Gedaliah Assassinated(S)
7 When all the army officers and their men who were still in the open country heard that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedaliah son of Ahikam as governor(T) over the land and had put him in charge of the men, women and children who were the poorest(U) in the land and who had not been carried into exile to Babylon, 8 they came to Gedaliah at Mizpah(V)—Ishmael(W) son of Nethaniah, Johanan(X) and Jonathan the sons of Kareah, Seraiah son of Tanhumeth, the sons of Ephai the Netophathite,(Y) and Jaazaniah[b] the son of the Maakathite,(Z) and their men. 9 Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, took an oath to reassure them and their men. “Do not be afraid to serve(AA) the Babylonians,[c](AB)” he said. “Settle down in the land and serve the king of Babylon, and it will go well with you.(AC) 10 I myself will stay at Mizpah(AD) to represent you before the Babylonians who come to us, but you are to harvest the wine,(AE) summer fruit and olive oil, and put them in your storage jars,(AF) and live in the towns you have taken over.”(AG)
11 When all the Jews in Moab,(AH) Ammon, Edom(AI) and all the other countries(AJ) heard that the king of Babylon had left a remnant in Judah and had appointed Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, as governor over them, 12 they all came back to the land of Judah, to Gedaliah at Mizpah, from all the countries where they had been scattered.(AK) And they harvested an abundance of wine and summer fruit.
13 Johanan(AL) son of Kareah and all the army officers still in the open country came to Gedaliah at Mizpah(AM) 14 and said to him, “Don’t you know that Baalis king of the Ammonites(AN) has sent Ishmael(AO) son of Nethaniah to take your life?” But Gedaliah son of Ahikam did not believe them.
15 Then Johanan(AP) son of Kareah said privately to Gedaliah in Mizpah, “Let me go and kill(AQ) Ishmael son of Nethaniah, and no one will know it. Why should he take your life and cause all the Jews who are gathered around you to be scattered(AR) and the remnant(AS) of Judah to perish?”
16 But Gedaliah son of Ahikam said to Johanan(AT) son of Kareah, “Don’t do such a thing! What you are saying about Ishmael is not true.”
