“ Ask all the people of the land and the priests: When you fasted and lamented in the fifth and in the seventh months for these seventy years, did you really fast for me?

Then Johanan son of Kareah suggested to Gedaliah in private at Mizpah,“ Let me go kill Ishmael son of Nethaniah. No one will know it. Why should he kill you and allow all of Judah that has gathered around you to scatter and the remnant of Judah to perish?”But Gedaliah son of Ahikam responded to Johanan son of Kareah,“ Don’t do that! What you’re saying about Ishmael is a lie.”In the seventh month, Ishmael son of Nethaniah, son of Elishama, of the royal family and one of the king’s chief officers, came with ten men to Gedaliah son of Ahikam at Mizpah. They ate a meal together there in Mizpah,but then Ishmael son of Nethaniah and the ten men who were with him got up and struck down Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, with the sword; he killed the one the king of Babylon had appointed in the land.Ishmael also struck down all the Judeans who were with Gedaliah at Mizpah, as well as the Chaldean soldiers who were there.On the day after he had killed Gedaliah, when no one knew yet,eighty men came from Shechem, Shiloh, and Samaria who had shaved their beards, torn their clothes, and gashed themselves, and who were carrying grain and incense offerings to bring to the temple of the LORD.Ishmael son of Nethaniah came out of Mizpah to meet them, weeping as he came. When he encountered them, he said,“ Come to Gedaliah son of Ahikam!”But when they came into the city, Ishmael son of Nethaniah and the men with him slaughtered them and threw them into a cistern.However, there were ten men among them who said to Ishmael,“ Don’t kill us, for we have hidden treasure in the field— wheat, barley, oil, and honey!” So he stopped and did not kill them along with their companions.Now the cistern where Ishmael had thrown all the corpses of the men he had struck down was a large one that King Asa had made in the encounter with King Baasha of Israel. Ishmael son of Nethaniah filled it with the slain.Then Ishmael took captive all the rest of the people of Mizpah including the daughters of the king— all those who remained in Mizpah over whom Nebuzaradan, captain of the guards, had appointed Gedaliah son of Ahikam. Ishmael son of Nethaniah took them captive and set off to cross over to the Ammonites.When Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the armies with him heard of all the evil that Ishmael son of Nethaniah had done,they took all their men and went to fight with Ishmael son of Nethaniah. They found him by the great pool in Gibeon.When all the people held by Ishmael saw Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the army with him, they rejoiced.All the people whom Ishmael had taken captive from Mizpah turned around and rejoined Johanan son of Kareah.But Ishmael son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men and went to the Ammonites.

When Athaliah, Ahaziah’s mother, saw that her son was dead, she proceeded to annihilate all the royal heirs.

The LORD of Armies says this:“ The fast of the fourth month, the fast of the fifth, the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth will become times of joy, gladness, and cheerful festivals for the house of Judah. Therefore, love truth and peace.”
