- Then went Jeremiah unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and dwelt with him among the people that were left in the land.
- Now when all the captains of the forces which were in the fields, even they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam governor in the land, and had committed unto him men, and women, and children, and of the poor of the land, of them that were not carried away captive to Babylon;
- Then they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan and Jonathan the sons of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth, and the sons of Ephai the Netophathite, and Jezaniah the son of a Maachathite, they and their men.
- And Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan sware unto them and to their men, saying, Fear not to serve the Chaldeans: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.
- As for me, behold, I will dwell at Mizpah, to serve the Chaldeans, which will come unto us: but ye, gather ye wine, and summer fruits, and oil, and put them in your vessels, and dwell in your cities that ye have taken.

- 耶利米就到米斯巴見亞希甘的兒子基大利、在他那裡住在境內剩下的民中。
- 在田野的一切軍長、和屬他們的人、聽見巴比倫王立了亞希甘的兒子基大利作境內的省長、並將沒有擄到巴比倫的男人、婦女、孩童、和境內極窮的人、全交給他.
- 於是軍長尼探雅的兒子以實瑪利、加利亞的兩個兒子約哈難和約拿單、單戶篾的兒子西萊雅、並尼陀法人以斐的眾子、瑪迦人的兒子耶撒尼亞、和屬他們的人、都到米斯巴見基大利。
- 沙番的孫子亞希甘的兒子基大利向他們和屬他們的人起誓、說、不要怕服事迦勒底人、只管住在這地、服事巴比倫王、就可以得福。
- 至於我、我要住在米斯巴、伺候那到我們這裡來的迦勒底人.只是你們當積蓄酒、油、和夏天的果子、收在器皿裡、住在你們所佔的城邑中。
