Yirmeyahu 40:7-12 ירמיהו מ׳:ז׳-י״ב

Now when all the captains of the forces which were in the fields, they and their men, heard that the king of Bavel had made Gedalya the son of Aĥiqam governor in the land, and had committed to him men, and women, and children, and of the poor of the land, of them that were not carried away captive to Bavel;

then they came to Gedalya to Miżpa, namely, Yishma᾽el the son of Netanyahu, and Yoĥanan and Yonatan the sons of Qareaĥ, and Seraya the son of Tanĥumet, and the sons of ῾Efay the Netofatite, and Yezanyahu the son of the Ma῾akhatite, they and their men.

And Gedalyahu the son of Aĥiqam the son of Shafan swore to them and to their men, saying, Fear not to serve the Kasdim: dwell in the land and serve the king of Bavel, and it shall be well with you.

As for me, behold, I will dwell at Miżpa to stand before the Kasdim who will come to us: but as for you, gather wine, and summer fruits, and oil, and put them in your vessels, and dwell in your cities that you have taken.

Likewise when all the men of Yehuda that were in Mo᾽av, and among the children of ῾Ammon, and in Edom, and that were in all the countries, heard that the king of Bavel had left a remnant of Yehuda, and that he had set over them Gedalyahu the son of Aĥiqam the son of Shafan;

then all the men of Yehuda returned out of all places unto which they were driven, and came to the land of Yehuda, to Gedalyahu, to Miżpa, and gathered a great abundance of wine and summer fruits.
