4 Da day afta dey kill Gedaliah, an befo odda peopo know bout dis, 5 had eighty guys dat wen shave off dea beards, rip dea clotheses, an cut dea body fo show dey stay sad inside. Dey come from Shekem, Shiloh, an Samaria. Dey bring wheat, barley, an incense fo make sacrifice inside da Temple Fo Da One In Charge. 6 Ishmael, Netaniah boy, go out from Mizpah fo meet dem, an he stay cry wen he go. Wen he meet dem, he tell: “Go come by Gedaliah, Ahikam boy.” 7 Wen dey go inside da town, Ishmael, Netaniah boy, an da guys dat stay wit him, start fo kill dem an throw dem inside one big hole fo keep watta. 8 But ten a da guys tell, “No kill us! Us guys get wheat an barley, oil an honey, dat stay stash inside one field, an dat worth plenny, you know! Ony us know wea we stash um!” So Ishmael guys let um go an no kill dem wit da oddas. 9 Dat hole wea dey throw all da mahke bodies a da guys Ishmael dem wen kill, an Gedaliah body too, az da same deep hole dat King Asa from Judah wen dig fo his peopo.
