2IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418 and the tenH6235 menH376 whoH834 were with him aroseH6965 and 1struckH5221 downH5221 GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296, the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, with the swordH2719 and 2putH4191 to deathH4191 the one 3whomH834 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had appointedH6485 over the landH776. 3IshmaelH3458 also struckH5221 downH5221 allH3605 the JewsH3064 whoH834 were with him, that is with GedaliahH1436 at MizpahH4709, and the ChaldeansH3778 whoH834 were foundH4672 thereH8033, the menH376 of warH4421.
4Now it happenedH1961 on the 4nextH8145 dayH3117 after the killingH4191 of GedaliahH1436, when noH3808 oneH376 knewH3045 about it, 5that eightyH8084 menH376 5cameH935 from 6ShechemH7927, from 7ShilohH7887, and from 8SamariaH8111 with 9their beardsH2206 shavedH1548 offH1548 and their clothesH899 tornH7167 and 10their bodies 11gashedH1413, having grain offeringsH4503 and incenseH3828 in their handsH3027 to bringH935 to the 12houseH1004 of the LordH3068. 6Then IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418 wentH3318 out from MizpahH4709 to meetH7122 them, 13weepingH1058 as he wentH1980; and as he metH6298 them, he saidH559 to them, “ComeH935 to GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296!” 7Yet it turnedH1961 out that as soon as they cameH935 insideH8432 the cityH5892, IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418 and the menH376 that were with him 14slaughteredH7819 them and cast them into the cisternH953.
