* And said unto him , Dost thou certainly know that Baalis the king of the Ammonites ben # hath sent Ishmael Yishma #e #l # the son of Nethaniah to slay thee ? But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam believed them not . * Then Johanan the son of Kareah spake to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly , saying , Let me go , I pray thee , and I will slay Ishmael Yishma #e #l # the son of Nethaniah , and no man shall know it : wherefore should he slay thee , that all the Jews which are gathered unto thee should be scattered , and the remnant in Judah perish ? * But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam said unto Johanan the son of Kareah , Thou shalt not do this thing : for thou speakest falsely of Ishmael Yishma #e #l #.
