Jeremiah 40:7Christian Standard Bible AnglicisedAll the commanders of the armies that were in the countryside #– #they and their men #– #heard that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedaliah son of Ahikam over the land. He had been put in charge of the men, women, and children from among the poorest of the land, who had not been deported to Babylon. See the chapter |
Then Ishmael took captive all the rest of the people of Mizpah, including the daughters of the king #– #all those who remained in Mizpah, over whom Nebuzaradan, captain of the guards, had appointed Gedaliah son of Ahikam. Ishmael son of Nethaniah took them captive and set off to cross over to the Ammonites.
