22And as for the peopleH5971 that remainedH7604 in the landH776 of JudahH3063, whom NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had leftH7604, even over them he made GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296, the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, rulerH6485. 23And when all the captainsH8269 of the armiesH2428, they and their menH582, heardH8085 that the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had made GedaliahH1436 governorH6485, there cameH935 to GedaliahH1436 to MizpahH4709, even IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418, and JohananH3110 the sonH1121 of CareahH7143, and SeraiahH8304 the sonH1121 of TanhumethH8576 the NetophathiteH5200, and JaazaniahH2970 the sonH1121 of a MaachathiteH4602, they and their menH582. 24And GedaliahH1436 sworeH7650 to them, and to their menH582, and saidH559 to them, FearH3372 not to be the servantsH5650 of the ChaldeesH3778: dwellH3427 in the landH776, and serveH5647 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894; and it shall be wellH3190 with you. 25But it came to pass in the seventhH7637 monthH2320, that IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418, the sonH1121 of ElishamaH476, of the seedH2233 royalH4410, cameH935, and tenH6235 menH582 with him, and smoteH5221 GedaliahH1436, that he diedH4191, and the JewsH3064 and the ChaldeesH3778 that were with him at MizpahH4709.1 26And all the peopleH5971, both smallH6996 and greatH1419, and the captainsH8269 of the armiesH2428, aroseH6965, and cameH935 to EgyptH4714: for they were afraidH3372 ofH6440 the ChaldeesH3778. 27And it came to pass in the sevenH7651 and thirtiethH7970 yearH8141 of the captivityH1546 of JehoiachinH3078 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, in the twelfthH8147H6240 monthH2320, on the sevenH7651 and twentiethH6242 day of the monthH2320, that EvilmerodachH192 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 in the yearH8141 that he began to reignH4427 releasedH5375H7218 JehoiachinH3078 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 out of prisonH1004H3608; 28And he spokeH1696 kindlyH2896 to him, and setH5414 his throneH3678 above the throneH3678 of the kingsH4428 that were with him in BabylonH894;2 29And changedH8132 his prisonH3608 garmentsH899: and he ateH398 his foodH3899 dailyH8548 beforeH6440 him all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416. 30And his allowanceH737 was a dailyH8548 allowanceH737 givenH5414 him by the kingH4428, a dailyH3117 rateH1697 for every dayH3117, all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416.
