G2532 and G957 it will be better G1510.8.3   G1473 for you.

  10 G2532 And G2400 behold, G1473 I G2521 sit G1519 in G* Mizpah G2476 to stand G2596 against G4383 the face G3588 of the G* Chaldeans, G3739 to whom G302 ever G2064 should come G1909 against G1473 us. G2532 And G1473 you G4863 bring together G3631 wine, G2532 and G3703 autumn fruits, G2532 and G1637 olive oil, G2532 and G906 lay them G1519 in G3588   G30 your receptacles, G1473   G2532 and G3611 dwell G1722 in G3588 the G4172 cities G3739 which G2629.2 you held!

  11 G2532 And G3956 all G3588 the G* Jews, G3588 the ones G1722 in G* Moab, G2532 and G1722 among G5207 the sons G* of Ammon, G2532 and G3588 the ones G1722 in G3588   G* Edom, G2532 and G3588 the ones G1722 in G3956 all G3588 the G1093 land, G191 heard G3754 that G1325 [³granted G935 ¹ the king G* ²of Babylon] G2640 a vestige G3588   G* to Judah, G2532 and G3754 that G2525 he placed G1909 over G1473 them G3588   G* Gedaliah G5207 son G* of Ahikam.

  12 G2532 And G4762 [⁴were returned G3956 ¹all G3588 ²the G* ³Jews] G575 from G3956 every G5117 place G1519 into G3739 which G1289 they were dispersed. G2532 And G2064 they came G4314 to G* Gedaliah G1519 in G1093 the land G* of Judah G1519 in G* Mizpah. G2532 And G4863 they gathered G3631 wine G2532 and G3703 autumn fruits -- G4183 much, G4970 exceedingly, G2532 and G1637 olive oil.

  13 G2532 And G* Johanan G5207 son G* of Kareah, G2532 and G3956 all G3588 the G2232 governors G3588 of the G1411 force, G3588 the ones G1722 in G3588 the G68 fields, G2064 came G4314 to G3588   G* Gedaliah G1519 in G* Mizpah.

  14 G2532 And G2036 they said G1473 to him, G1487 Do you G1108 with knowledge G1097 know G3754 that G* Baalis G935 king G5207 of the sons G* of Ammon G649 sent G4314 against G1473 you G3588   G* Ishmael G5207 son G* of Nethaniah, G3960 to strike G5590 your life? G1473   G2532 and G3756 [⁴did not trust G4100   G1473 ⁵them G* ¹Gedaliah G5207 ²son G* ³of Ahikam].

  15 G2532 And G* Johanan G5207 son G* of Kareah G2036 said G3588   G* to Gedaliah G2930.2 secretly G1722 in G* Mizpah, G4198 I will go G1211 indeed, G2532 and G3960 I shall strike G3588   G* Ishmael G5207 son G* of Nethaniah, G2532 and G3367 let no one G1097 know! G3361 lest G3960 he should strike G1473 your G5590 soul, G2532 and G1289 should scatter G3956 all G* Judah, G3588 the ones G4863 being brought together G4314 to G1473 you, G2532 and G622 they shall destroy G3588 the G1954 rest G* of Judah.

  16 G2532 And G2036 Gedaliah said G*   G4314 to G* Johanan G5207 son G* of Kareah, G3361 You should not G4160 do G3588   G4229 this thing, G3778   G3754 for G5571 [³lies G1473 ¹you G3004 ²speak] G5228 concerning G* Ishmael.
