The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Egressus ergo Ismahel filius Nathaniæ in occursum eorum de Masphath, incedens et plorans ibat : cum autem occurrisset eis, dixit ad eos : Venite ad Godoliam filium Ahicam.
Septuagint (Swete) shown from Jeremias 48:6
καὶ ἐξῆλθεν εἰς ἀπάντησιν αὐτοῖς Ἰσμαήλ, αὐτοὶ ἐπορεύοντο καὶ ἔκλαιον, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Εἰσέλθετε πρὸς Γοδολίαν.
Hebrew (WLC)
וַ֠יֵּצֵא יִשְׁמָעֵ֨אל בֶּן נְתַנְיָ֤ה לִקְרָאתָם֙ מִן הַמִּצְפָּ֔ה הֹלֵ֥ךְ הָלֹ֖ךְ וּבֹכֶ֑ה וַֽיְהִי֙ כִּפְגֹ֣שׁ אֹתָ֔ם וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֲלֵיהֶ֔ם בֹּ֖אוּ אֶל גְּדַלְיָ֥הוּ בֶן אֲחִיקָֽם

Haydock's commentary

He. Septuagint, "they." Yet Hebrew intimates that Ismahel feigned tears. (Calmet)

He did not weep sincerely. (Worthington)
