made Gedaliah governor, there came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethaniah,
and Johanan the son of Careah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah
the son of a Maachathite, they and their men.
24
And Gedaliah sware to them, and to their men, and
said unto them, Fear not to be the servants of the Chaldees: dwell in the land, and serve the king
of Babylon; and it shall be well with you.
25
But it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael
the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the seed royal, came, and ten men with him, and
smote Gedaliah, that he died, and the Jews and the Chaldees that were with him at Mizpah.
26
And
all the people, both small and great, and the captains of the armies, arose, and came to Egypt: for
they were afraid of the Chaldees.
27
And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah,
in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth
day
of the month,
that
Evil-merodach king of
Babylon in the year that he began to reign did lift up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of
prison;
28
And he spake kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that
were
with him in Babylon;
29
And changed his prison garments: and he did eat bread continually before
him all the days of his life.
30
And his allowance
was
a continual allowance given him of the king,
a daily rate for every day, all the days of his life.
