Now when all the captains of the forces which were in the fields, even they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam governor in the land, and had committed unto him men, and women, and children, and of the poor of the land, of them that were not carried away captive to Babylon;
Now when all the leaders and their soldiers who were in the fields heard that the king of Babylon made Gedaliah, son of Ahikam, the ruler of the land, giving him people, including men, women, children, and poor ones who didn't go to Babylon.
