Jeremiah 41:18King James 3 - The Literal Traslationbecause of the Chaldeans; for they were afraid of them, because Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, had struck Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had appointed in the land. See the chapter |
Even while he had not yet returned, he said, Or go back to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon has appointed over the cities of Judah, and live with him among the people, or to all that is right in your eyes to go, go. And the chief of the executioners gave him ration and a reward, and sent him away.
