Now while he was not yet gone back, Go back then, said he, to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon hath made governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people; or go wheresoever it seemeth right unto thee to go. So the captain of the guard gave him victuals and a present, and let him go.

Then go back to Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon has made ruler over the towns of Judah, and make your living-place with him among the people; or go wherever it seems right to you to go. So the captain of the armed men gave him food and some money and let him go.

Και επειδη δεν εστρεφετο, Επιστρεψον λοιπον, ειπε, προς τον Γεδαλιαν, υιον του Αχικαμ υιου του Σαφαν, τον οποιον ο βασιλευς της Βαβυλωνος κατεστησεν επι τας πολεις του Ιουδα, και κατοικησον μετ' αυτου μεταξυ του λαου· η υπαγε οπου σοι φαινεται αρεστον να υπαγης. Και εδωκεν εις αυτον ο αρχισωματοφυλαξ ζωοτροφιας και δωρα και εξαπεστειλεν αυτον.

Now while he was not yet gone back, he said, Go back also to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon hath made governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people: or go wheresoever it seemeth convenient unto thee to go. So the captain of the guard gave him victuals and a reward, and let him go.
