Jeremiah 41:17-18

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁷ They started on the way towards Egypt. They stopped at Geruth Kimham, a town that is near Bethlehem. ¹⁸ They were afraid that the soldiers of Babylon would want to kill them. They would be angry because Nethaniah's son Ishmael had killed Ahikam's son Gedaliah. The king of Babylon had chosen Gedaliah to rule Judah.
