6 (A)Then Jeremiah went to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, to (B)Mizpah, and dwelt with him among the people who were left in the land.
7 (C)And when all the captains of the armies who were in the fields, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam governor in the land, and had committed to him men, women, children, and (D)the poorest of the land who had not been carried away captive to Babylon, 8 then they came to Gedaliah at Mizpah—(E)Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, (F)Johanan and Jonathan the sons of Kareah, Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth, the sons of Ephai the Netophathite, and (G)Jezaniah[a] the son of a (H)Maachathite, they and their men.
