Bible. Jeremiah
24:041:010 Then Ishmael carried away captive all the residue of the
people that were in Mizpah, even the king's daughters, and all
the people that remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the
captain of the guard had committed to Gedaliah the son of
Ahikam: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah carried them away
captive, and departed to go over to the Ammonites.
24:041:011 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,
24:041:012 Then they took all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the
son of Nethaniah, and found him by the great waters that are
in Gibeon.
24:041:013 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.
24:041:014 So all the people that Ishmael had carried away captive from
Mizpah cast about and returned, and went unto Johanan the son
of Kareah.
24:041:015 But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with
eight men, and went to the Ammonites.
24:041:016 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 son of Ahikam,
even mighty men of war, and the women, and the children, and
the eunuchs, whom he had brought again from Gibeon:
24:041:017 And they departed, and dwelt in the habitation of Chimham,
which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt,
24:041:018 Because of the Chaldeans: for they were afraid of them,
because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had slain Gedaliah the
son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon made governor in the
land.
24:042:001 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,
24:042:002 And said unto Jeremiah the prophet, Let, we beseech thee, our
supplication be accepted before thee, and pray for us unto the
LORD thy God, even for all this remnant; (for we are left but
a few of many, as thine eyes do behold us:)
24:042:003 That the LORD thy God may shew us the way wherein we may walk,
and the thing that we may do.
24:042:004 Then Jeremiah the prophet said unto them, I have heard you;
behold, I will pray unto the LORD your God according to your
words; and it shall come to pass, that whatsoever thing the
LORD shall answer you, I will declare it unto you; I will keep
nothing back from you.
