kareah Then they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even
Ishmael

the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan and Jonathan the sons of
{Kareah},

and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth, and the sons of Ephai the

Netophathite, and Jezaniah the son of a Maachathite, they

and their men.

k

areah Moreover Johanan the son of {Kareah}, and all
the

captains of the forces that [were] in the fields, came to
Gedaliah

to Mizpah,

kareah Then Johanan the son of {Kareah} spake to

Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, saying, Let me go, I pray thee, and
I

will slay Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and no man shall know
[it]:

wherefore should he slay thee, that all the Jews which are

gathered unto thee should be scattered, and the remnant in Judah

perish?

kareah But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam said unto
Johanan

the son of {Kareah}, Thou shalt not do this thing: for thou
speakest

falsely of Ishmael.

kareah But when Johanan the son of {Kareah}, and all
the

captains of the forces that [were] with him, heard of all the
evil

that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had done,

kareah Now it came to pass, [that] when all the
people

which [were] with Ishmael saw Johanan the son of {Kareah}, and
all

the captains of the forces that [were] with him, then they were

glad.

kareah So all the people that Ishmael had carried
away

captive from Mizpah cast about and returned, and went unto
Johanan

the son of {Kareah}.

kareah Then took Johanan the son of {Kareah}, and all

the captains of the forces that [were] with him, all the remnant
of

the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of
Nethaniah,

from Mizpah, after [that] he had slain Gedaliah the s

on of Ahikam, [even] mighty men of war, and the women, and the

children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought again from Gibeon:

kareah Then all the captains of the forces, and
Johanan

the son of {Kareah}, and Jezaniah the son of Hoshaiah, and all
the

people from the least even unto the greatest, came near,

kareah Then called he Johanan the son of {Kareah}, and

all the captains of the forces which [were] with him, and all the

people from the least even to the greatest,

kareah Then spake Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and

Johanan the son of {Kareah}, and all the proud men, saying unto

Jeremiah, Thou speakest falsely: the LORD our God hath not sent
thee

to say, Go not into Egypt to sojourn there:

kareah So Johanan the son of {Kareah}, and all the

captains of the forces, and all the people, obeyed not the voice
of

the LORD, to dwell in the land of Judah.

kareah But Johanan the son of {Kareah}, and all the

captains of the forces, took all the remnant of Judah, that were

returned from all nations, whither they had been driven, to
dwell in

the land of Judah;
