Jeremiah 40:10-12

International Standard Version

¹⁰ As for me, I’ll remain at Mizpah to represent you before^[a] the Chaldeans who come to us. As for you, gather wine, summer fruit, and oil. Put it in your containers and live in your cities that you have taken over.”

¹¹ All the Judeans who were in Moab, those with the people in Ammon, those in Edom, and those in all the other^[b] countries also heard that the king of Babylon had left a remnant for Judah and that he had appointed Ahikam’s son Gedaliah, the grandson of Shaphan, over them. ¹² So all the Judeans returned from all the countries where they had been scattered. They came to the land of Judah, to Gedaliah at Mizpah, and they gathered wine and summer fruit in great abundance.
