Jeremiah 41:9-11

Expanded Bible

⁹ Now the ·well [cistern; pit] where he had thrown all the bodies had been made by King Asa [^Cruled 913–873 bc] as a part of his defenses against Baasha king of Israel [^Cruled 900–877 bc; 1 Kin. 15:9–24; 15:33—16:7]. But Ishmael son of Nethaniah put dead bodies in it until it was full.

¹⁰ Ishmael captured all the other people in Mizpah: the king’s daughters and all the other people who ·were left [remained] there. They were the ones whom Nebuzaradan commander of the guard had ·chosen Gedaliah son of Ahikam to take care of [appointed Gedaliah son of Ahikam as governor over]. So Ishmael son of Nethaniah captured those people, and he started to cross over to the country of the ·Ammonites [^Lsons of Ammon].

¹¹ Johanan son of Kareah [40:13–14] and all his army officers with him heard about all the ·evil things [crimes] Ishmael son of Nethaniah had done.
