Now the pit wherein Ishmael had cast all the dead bodies of the men, whom he had slain because of Gedaliah, was it which Asa the king had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with them that were slain.

The verse 9 is found in chapter 41 of Jeremiah. Ishmael assassinates Gedaliah and those who were with him, turning the hope of a stable administration into a new crisis. The assassination occurs after a meal and expands into a massacre. Internal violence demonstrates that Judah’s collapse does not simply end with Babylon’s departure.

Der Brunnen aber, darein Ismael die Leichname der Männer warf, welche er hatte erschlagen samt dem Gedalja, ist der, den der König Asa machen ließ wider Baesa, den König Israels; den füllte Ismael, der Sohn Nethanjas, mit den Erschlagenen.
Y el aljibe en que echó Ismael todos los cuerpos de los hombres que hirió por causa de Gedalías, era el mismo que había hecho el rey Asa por causa de Baasa, rey de Israel: llenolo de muertos Ismael, hijo de Nethanías.
La cisterna donde Ismael echó todos los cadáveres de los hombres que había matado a causa de Gedalías era la que el rey Asa había hecho por causa de Baasa, rey de Israel. Ismael, hijo de Netanías, la llenó de muertos.
La citerne dans laquelle Ismaël jeta tous les cadavres des hommes qu'il tua près de Guedalia est celle qu'avait construite le roi Asa, lorsqu'il craignait Baescha, roi d'Israël; c'est cette citerne qu'Ismaël, fils de Nethania, remplit de cadavres.
Or la fossa, nella quale Ismaele gettò tutti i corpi morti degli uomini, ch’egli uccise del seguito di Ghedalia, era quella che il re Asa aveva fatta per tema di Baasa, re d’Israele; Ismaele, figliuolo di Netania, la riempiè di uccisi.
E o poço em que Ismael lançou todos os cadáveres dos homens que matou por causa de Gedalias é o mesmo que fez o rei Asa, por causa de Baasa, rei de Israel; foi esse mesmo que Ismael, filho de Netanias, encheu de mortos.
以實瑪利 把那些因 基大利 事件所殺之人的屍首都丟在坑裏;這坑是從前 亞撒 王因怕 以色列 王 巴沙 所挖的。 尼探雅 的兒子 以實瑪利 把那些被殺的人填滿了坑。
