Jeremiah 41:9-11
International Standard Version
9 Ishmael threw the bodies of the men he killed on account of Gedaliah into the cistern that King Asa had made for protection against[a] King Baasha of Israel. That is the same one Nethaniah’s son Ishmael filled with those he killed. 10 Then Ishmael took captive all the rest of the people who were in Mizpah, including the king’s daughters and all the rest of the people in Mizpah over whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had appointed Ahikam’s son Gedaliah. Nethaniah’s son Ishmael took them captive and then set out to cross over to the Ammonites.
The Captives Rescued; Ishmael Escapes
