Jeremiah 40:14

The Assassination Of Gedaliah

¹³ Kareah's son Johanan and all the army commanders who were still in the country came to Gedaliah at Mizpah. ¹⁴ and said to him, “Are you well aware that Baalis the king of the sons of Ammon has sent Ishmael the son of Nethaniah to take your life?” But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam did not believe them. ¹⁵ Then Johanan, Kareah's son, secretly asked Gedaliah at Mizpah: Let me kill Ishmael, Nethaniah's son. No one will know about it. Why should he kill you? All the Jews who have gathered around you would scatter. What is left of Judah would disappear.
