Jeremiah 41:11-18

11But when Johanan son of Kareah and the other military leaders heard about Ishmael’s crimes,

12they took all their men and set out to stop him. They caught up with him at the large pool near Gibeon.

13The people Ishmael had captured shouted for joy when they saw Johanan and the other military leaders.

14And all the captives from Mizpah escaped and began to help Johanan.

15Meanwhile, Ishmael and eight of his men escaped from Johanan into the land of Ammon.

16Then Johanan son of Kareah and the other military leaders took all the people they had rescued in Gibeon—the soldiers, women, children, and court officials whom Ishmael had captured after he killed Gedaliah.

17They took them all to the village of Geruth-kimham near Bethlehem, where they prepared to leave for Egypt.

18They were afraid of what the Babylonians would do when they heard that Ishmael had killed Gedaliah, the governor appointed by the Babylonian king.
