1 The word that came to Jeremiahfrom Jehovah, after that Nebuzar-adan the captain of the body-guard had let him go from Ramah, when he had taken him, being bound in chains, among all the captivity of Jerusalemand Judah, that were carried away captive to Babylon. 2 And the captain of the body-guard took Jeremiah, and said unto him, Jehovah thy GodGodHebrew: Elohimpronounced this evil upon this place, 3 and Jehovah hath brought it about and done according as he said; for ye have sinned against Jehovah, and have not hearkened unto his voice, therefore this thing is come upon you. 4 And now, behold, I loose thee this day from the chains that are upon thy hand. If it seem good in thy sight to come with me to Babylon, come, and I will keep mine eye upon thee; but if it seem ill unto thee to come with me to Babylon, forbear. See, all the land is before thee: whither it seemeth good and right in thy sight to go, thither go. 5 And while he had not yet given answer; he said, Yea, go back to Gedaliahthe son of Ahikamthe son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylonhath appointed over the cities of Judah, and abide with him in the midst of the people; or go wheresoever it seemeth right in thy sight to go. And the captain of the body-guard gave him provisions and a present, and let him go. 6 And Jeremiahcame unto Gedaliahthe son of Ahikamto Mizpah, and abode with him among the people that remained in the land.
7 And all the captains of the forces that were in the fields, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylonhad appointed Gedaliahthe son of Ahikamover the land, and had committed unto him men, and women, and children, and of the poor of the land, of them that had not been carried away captive to Babylon. 8 And they came to Gedaliahto Mizpah; even Ishmaelthe son of Nethaniah, and Johananand Jonathanthe sons of Kareah, and Seraiahthe son of Tanhumeth, and the sons of Ephaithe Netophathite, and Jezaniahthe son of a Maachathite, they and their men. 9 And Gedaliahthe son of Ahikamthe son of Shaphanswore unto them and to their men, saying, Fear not to serve the Chaldeans: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you. 10 And as for me, behold, I dwell at Mizpah, to stand before the Chaldeans, who will come unto us; and ye, gather wine, and summer fruits, and oil, and put them in your vessels, and dwell in your cities which ye have taken. 11 Likewise all the Jews that were in Moab, and among the children of Ammonand in Edom, and that were in all the lands, heard that the king of Babylonhad left a remnant in Judah, and that he had appointed over them Gedaliahthe son of Ahikamthe son of Shaphan; 12 and all the Jews returned out of all the places whither they had been driven, and came to the land of Judah to Gedaliah, unto Mizpah, and gathered wine and summer fruits in great abundance. 13 And Johananthe son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were in the fields, came to Gedaliahunto Mizpah, 14 and said unto him, Dost thou indeed know that Baalisthe king of the children of Ammonhath sent Ishmaelthe son of Nethaniahto smite thee to death? But Gedaliahthe son of Ahikambelieved them not. 15 And Johananthe son of Kareahspoke to Gedaliahin Mizpahsecretly, saying, Let me go, I pray thee, and I will smite Ishmaelthe son of Nethaniahand no man shall know it: why should he take thy life, and all they of Judah who are gathered unto thee be scattered, and the remnant of Judah perish? 16 But Gedaliahthe son of Ahikamsaid unto Johananthe son of Kareah, Thou shalt not do this thing; for thou speakest falsely of Ishmael.
