Jeremiah 40:13--41:10

Moreover Johanan
<03110>
the son
<01121>
of Kareah
<07143>_,
and all the captains
<08269>
of the forces
<02428>
that [were] in the fields
<07704>_,
came
<0935> (8804)
to Gedaliah
<01436>
to Mizpah
<04708>_,
And said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Dost thou certainly
<03045> (8800)
know
<03045> (8799)
that Baalis
<01185>
the king
<04428>
of the Ammonites
<01121> <05983>
hath sent
<07971> (8804)
Ishmael
<03458>
the son
<01121>
of Nethaniah
<05418>
to slay
<05221> (8687) <05315>
thee? But Gedaliah
<01436>
the son
<01121>
of Ahikam
<0296>
believed
<0539> (8689)
them not. {to slay...: Heb. to strike thee in soul?}
Then Johanan
<03110>
the son
<01121>
of Kareah
<07143>
spake
<0559> (8804)
to Gedaliah
<01436>
in Mizpah
<04709>
secretly
<05643>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Let me go
<03212> (8799)_,
I pray thee, and I will slay
<05221> (8686)
Ishmael
<03458>
the son
<01121>
of Nethaniah
<05418>_,
and no man
<0376>
shall know
<03045> (8799)
[it]: wherefore should he slay
<05221> (8686) <05315>
thee, that all the Jews
<03064>
which are gathered
<06908> (8737)
unto thee should be scattered
<06327> (8738)_,
and the remnant
<07611>
in Judah
<03063>
perish
<06> (8804)_?
But Gedaliah
<01436>
the son
<01121>
of Ahikam
<0296>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Johanan
<03110>
the son
<01121>
of Kareah
<07143>_,
Thou shalt not do
<06213> (8799)
this thing
<01697>_:
for thou speakest
<01696> (8802)
falsely
<08267>
of Ishmael
<03458>_.
Now it came to pass in the seventh
<07637>
month
<02320>_,
[that] Ishmael
<03458>
the son
<01121>
of Nethaniah
<05418>
the son
<01121>
of Elishama
<0476>_,
of the seed
<02233>
royal
<04410>_,
and the princes
<07227>
of the king
<04428>_,
even ten
<06235>
men
<0582>
with him, came
<0935> (8804)
unto Gedaliah
<01436>
the son
<01121>
of Ahikam
<0296>
to Mizpah
<04709>_;
and there they did eat
<0398> (8799)
bread
<03899>
together
<03162>
in Mizpah
<04708>_.
Then arose
<06965> (8799)
Ishmael
<03458>
the son
<01121>
of Nethaniah
<05418>_,
and the ten
<06235>
men
<0582>
that were with him, and smote
<05221> (8686)
Gedaliah
<01436>
the son
<01121>
of Ahikam
<0296>
the son
<01121>
of Shaphan
<08227>
with the sword
<02719>_,
and slew
<04191> (8686)
him, whom the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>
had made governor
<06485> (8689)
over the land
<0776>_.
Ishmael
<03458>
also slew
<05221> (8689)
all the Jews
<03064>
that were with him, [even] with Gedaliah
<01436>_,
at Mizpah
<04709>_,
and the Chaldeans
<03778>
that were found
<04672> (8738)
there, [and] the men
<0582>
of war
<04421>_.
And it came to pass the second
<08145>
day
<03117>
after he had slain
<04191> (8687)
Gedaliah
<01436>_,
and no man
<0376>
knew
<03045> (8804)
[it],
That there came
<0935> (8799)
certain
<0582>
from Shechem
<07927>_,
from Shiloh
<07887>_,
and from Samaria
<08111>_,
[even] fourscore
<08084>
men
<0376>_,
having their beards
<02206>
shaven
<01548> (8794)_,
and their clothes
<0899>
rent
<07167> (8803)_,
and having cut
<01413> (8706)
themselves, with offerings
<04503>
and incense
<03828>
in their hand
<03027>_,
to bring
<0935> (8687)
[them] to the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
And Ishmael
<03458>
the son
<01121>
of Nethaniah
<05418>
went forth
<03318> (8799)
from Mizpah
<04709>
to meet
<07125> (8800)
them, weeping
<01058> (8802)
all along
<01980> (8800)
as he went
<01980> (8802)_:
and it came to pass, as he met
<06298> (8800)
them, he said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Come
<0935> (8798)
to Gedaliah
<01436>
the son
<01121>
of Ahikam
<0296>_.
{weeping...: Heb. in going and weeping}
And it was [so], when they came
<0935> (8800)
into the midst
<08432>
of the city
<05892>_,
that Ishmael
<03458>
the son
<01121>
of Nethaniah
<05418>
slew
<07819> (8799)
them, [and cast them] into the midst
<08432>
of the pit
<0953>_,
he, and the men
<0582>
that [were] with him.
But ten
<06235>
men
<0582>
were found
<04672> (8738)
among them that said
<0559> (8799)
unto Ishmael
<03458>_,
Slay
<04191> (8686)
us not: for we have
<03426>
treasures
<04301>
in the field
<07704>_,
of wheat
<02406>_,
and of barley
<08184>_,
and of oil
<08081>_,
and of honey
<01706>_.
So he forbare
<02308> (8799)_,
and slew
<04191> (8689)
them not among
<08432>
their brethren
<0251>_.
Now the pit
<0953>
wherein Ishmael
<03458>
had cast
<07993> (8689)
all the dead bodies
<06297>
of the men
<0582>_,
whom he had slain
<05221> (8689)
because
<03027>
of Gedaliah
<01436>_,
[was] it which Asa
<0609>
the king
<04428>
had made
<06213> (8804)
for fear
<06440>
of Baasha
<01201>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>_:
[and] Ishmael
<03458>
the son
<01121>
of Nethaniah
<05418>
filled
<04390> (8765)
it with [them that were] slain
<02491>_.
{because...: or, near Gedaliah: Heb. by the hand, or, by the side of Gedaliah}
Then Ishmael
<03458>
carried away captive
<07617> (8799)
all the residue
<07611>
of the people
<05971>
that [were] in Mizpah
<04709>_,
[even] the king's
<04428>
daughters
<01323>_,
and all the people
<05971>
that remained
<07604> (8737)
in Mizpah
<04709>_,
whom Nebuzaradan
<05018>
the captain
<07227>
of the guard
<02876>
had committed
<06485> (8689)
to Gedaliah
<01436>
the son
<01121>
of Ahikam
<0296>_:
and Ishmael
<03458>
the son
<01121>
of Nethaniah
<05418>
carried them away captive
<07617> (8799)_,
and departed
<03212> (8799)
to go over
<05674> (8800)
to the Ammonites
<01121> <05983>_.
