14Then all the people Ishmael had taken captive at Mizpah turned and ran to Kareah’s son Johanan. 15Ishmael and eight of his men escaped from Johanan and fled to Ammon. Then Kareah’s son Johanan and all the army commanders who were with him brought back the rest of the people of Mizpah whom he had rescued from Ishmael, son of Nethaniah, after Ishmael had killed Gedaliah, son of Ahikam. Johanan brought back men, women, children, soldiers, and commanders from Gibeon. 17When they left Gibeon, they stayed near Bethlehem at Geruth Kimham on their way to Egypt. 18They were afraid of the Babylonians because Ishmael had killed Gedaliah whom the king of Babylon had appointed to govern the land.
