And he said to him, I have escaped from the camp of Israel. 4 And David said to him, How did the matter go? Please, tell me. And he answered, The people have fled from the battle, and many of the people are also fallen and dead; and Saul and Jonathan his son are dead as well. 5 And David said to the young man who told him, How do you know that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead? 6 And the young man who told him said, As I happened by chance upon Mount Gilboa, behold, Saul leaned upon his spear; and the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him. 7 And when he looked behind him, he saw me and called to me. And I answered, Here I am. 8 And he said to me, Who are you? And I answered him, I am an Amalekite. 9 He said to me again, Stand, please, upon me, and kill me: for anguish has come upon me, because my life is still in me. 10 So I stood upon him and killed him, because I was sure that he could not live after he had fallen: and I took the crown that was upon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them here to my lord. 11 Then David took hold of his clothes and tore them; and likewise all the men that were with him: 12 And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until evening, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; because they had fallen by the sword. 13 And David said to the young man who told him, Where are you from? And he answered, I am the son of a stranger, an Amalekite. 14 And David said to him, How are you not afraid to stretch forth your hand to destroy the LORD'S anointed? 15 And David called one of the young men and said, Go near, and strike him. And he smote him that he died. 16 And David said to him, Your blood be upon your head; for your mouth has testified against you, saying, I have slain the LORD'S anointed.

    7And it was so, when they came into the midst of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah killed them, and cast them into the midst of the pit, he, and the men who were with him.

    8But ten men were found among them who said to Ishmael, Do not kill us: for we have treasures in the field, of wheat, and barley, and oil, and honey. So he spared them, and did not kill them among their brethren.

    9Now the pit where Ishmael had cast all the dead bodies of the men, whom he had killed because of Gedaliah, was the one which Asa the king had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with those who were killed.

    10Then Ishmael carried away captive all the rest of the people who were at Mizpah, even the king's daughters, and all the people who remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had committed to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah carried them away captive, and departed to go over to the Ammonites.

    11But when Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, heard of all the evil that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had done,

    12Then they took all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and found him by the great waters that are in Gibeon.

    13Now it came to pass, that when all the people who were with Ishmael saw Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, then they were glad.

    14So all the people that Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah turned around and went to Johanan the son of Kareah.

    15But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the Ammonites.

    16Then Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, took all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, from Mizpah, after he had killed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, even mighty men of war, and the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought back from Gibeon:

    4And now, behold, I release you this day from the chains which were upon your hand. If it seems good to you to come with me to Babylon, come; and I will look well to you: but if it seems bad to you to come with me to Babylon, hold back: behold, all the land is before you: wherever it seems good and convenient for you to go, there go.

    5Now while he had not yet gone back, he said, Go back also to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon has made governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people: or go wherever it seems convenient for you to go. So the captain of the guard gave him provisions and a reward, and let him go.

    6Then Jeremiah went to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and dwelt with him among the people who were left in the land.

    7Now when all the captains of the forces who 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 to him men, and women, and children, and of the poor of the land, of those who were not carried away captive to Babylon;
