8 But the ten men who were left alive said to Ishmael, “Don’t kill us! We have wheat and barley and oil and honey that we have hidden in a field.” So Ishmael let them live and did not kill them with the others.
9 Now the well where he had thrown all the bodies had been made by King Asa as a part of his defenses against Baasha king of Israel. But Ishmael son of Nethaniah put dead bodies in it until it was full.
10 Ishmael captured all the other people in Mizpah: the king’s daughters and all the other people who were left there. They were the ones whom Nebuzaradan commander of the guard had chosen Gedaliah son of Ahikam to take care of. So Ishmael son of Nethaniah captured those people, and he started to cross over to the country of the Ammonites.
11 Johanan son of Kareah and all his army officers with him heard about all the evil things Ishmael son of Nethaniah had done.
12 So they took their men and went to fight Ishmael son of Nethaniah and caught him near the big pool of water at Gibeon.
13 When the captives Ishmael had taken saw Johanan and the army officers, they were glad.
14 So all the people Ishmael had taken captive from Mizpah turned around and ran to Johanan son of Kareah.
