Jeremiah 41:14-16

International Children’s Bible

¹⁴ Then all the people Ishmael had taken captive turned around. They ran to Johanan son of Kareah. ¹⁵ But Ishmael son of Nethaniah and eight of his men escaped from Johanan. And they ran away to the Ammonites.

¹⁶ So Johanan son of Kareah and all his army officers saved the captives. Ishmael son of Nethaniah had murdered Gedaliah son of Ahikam. Then he had taken those people from Mizpah. Among those left alive were soldiers, women, children and court officers. Johanan brought them back from the town of Gibeon.
