The Massacre of the Mourners
4 And then[a] on the second day of the killing of Gedaliah—and no one[b] knew— 5 then men came from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, eighty men with shaven beards[c] and torn garments, who had cut themselves with blades, having[d] grain offerings[e] and frankincense in their hands[f] to bring to the temple[g] of Yahweh. 6 And Ishmael the son of Nethaniah came out to meet them from Mizpah, weeping as he came.[h] And then[i] as he was meeting them, he said to them, “Come to Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam.”
