22 King Neb·u·chad·nezʹzar of Babylon appointed Ged·a·liʹah+ the son of A·hiʹkam+ the son of Shaʹphan+ over the people whom he had left behind in the land of Judah.+

14 They said to him: “Do you not know that Baʹa·lis, the king of the Amʹmon·ites,+ has sent Ishʹma·el the son of Neth·a·niʹah to kill you?”*+ But Ged·a·liʹah the son of A·hiʹkam did not believe them.
