⁸ But ten men who were found among them said to Ishmael, “Do not put us to death; for we have ^(A)stores of wheat, barley, oil, and honey hidden in the field.” So he refrained and did not put them to death along with their ^[a]companions.

⁹ Now as for the cistern where Ishmael had cast all the corpses of the men whom he had struck down ^[b]because of Gedaliah, it was the ^(B)one that King Asa had made on ^(C)account of Baasha, king of Israel; Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with the slain. ¹⁰ Then Ishmael took captive all the ^(D)remnant of the people who were in Mizpah, the ^(E)king’s daughters and all the people who remained in Mizpah, over whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the bodyguard had appointed Gedaliah the son of Ahikam; thus Ishmael the son of Nethaniah took them captive and went to cross over to the sons of ^(F)Ammon.
