Johanan and the captains speak to Gedaliah of Baalis and Ishmael, and Gedaliah does not believe them

요하난과 군대장관들이 그다랴에게 바알리스와 이스마엘의 일을 말하나 그다랴가 믿지 아니함

Jeremiah 40:13–16: Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were in the fields, come to Gedaliah to Mizpah, and say to him, “Do you know that Baalis the king of the children of Ammon has sent Ishmael the son of Nethaniah to take your life?” But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam doesn’t believe them. Then Johanan the son of Kareah speaks to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, saying, “Please let me go, and I will kill Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and no man will know it. Why should he take your life, that all the Jews who are gathered to you should be scattered, and the remnant of Judah perish?” But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam says to Johanan the son of Kareah, “You shall not do this thing, for you speak falsely of Ishmael.”
