When the army officers and troops heard that Gedaliah was their ruler, the officers met with him at Mizpah. These men were Ishmael son of Nethaniah, Johanan son of Kareah, Seraiah son of Tanhumeth from Netophah, and Jaazaniah from Maacah.
But after they were inside the town, Ishmael ordered his soldiers to kill them and throw their bodies into a well.
Johanan, Jezaniah, the other army officers, and everyone else in the group, came to me
Ask the LORD to tell us where he wants us to go and what he wants us to do.”
