KJV - Jeremiah 40:11
Likewise when all the Jews that were in Moab, and among the Ammonites, and in Edom, and that were in all the countries, heard that the king of Babylon had left a remnant of Judah, and that he had set over them Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan;
Just like that, when all the Jews living in Moab, Ammon, Edom, and other countries heard that the king of Babylon let some Jews stay, and put Gedaliah, a descendant of Ahikam and Shaphan, in charge of them.
