9 Now the pit wherein Ish´ma-el had cast all the dead bodies of the men, whom he had slain because of Gedali´ah, was it which Asa the king had made for fear of Ba´asha king of Israel: and Ish´ma-el the son of Nethani´ah filled it with them that were slain.
10 Then Ish´ma-el carried away captive all the residue of the people that were in Mizpah, even the king's daughters, and all the people that remained in Mizpah, whom Neb´uzar–a´dan the captain of the guard had committed to Gedali´ah the son of Ahi´kam: and Ish´ma-el the son of Nethani´ah carried them away captive, and departed to go over to the Ammonites.
11 But when Jo´hanan the son of Kare´ah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, heard of all the evil that Ish´ma-el the son of Nethani´ah had done,
12 then they took all the men, and went to fight with Ish´ma-el the son of Nethani´ah, and found him by the great waters that are in Gibeon.
13 Now it came to pass, that when all the people which were with Ish´ma-el saw Jo´hanan the son of Kare´ah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, then they were glad.
14 So all the people that Ish´ma-el had carried away captive from Mizpah cast about and returned, and went unto Jo´hanan the son of Kare´ah.
15 But Ish´ma-el the son of Nethani´ah escaped from Jo´hanan with eight men, and went to the Ammonites.
