Before Jeremiah could leave, Nebuzaradan called after him: 'Go to Gedaliah son of Ahikam son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon has appointed over the towns of Judah. Live with him among the people—or go wherever you choose.' Then the captain gave him provisions and a parting gift and sent him on his way.
Before he had gone, he said, 'Return to Gedalyahu son of Achikam son of Shafan, whom the king of Bavel has appointed over the cities of Yehudah, and dwell with him among the people—or go wherever it seems right to you to go.' And the chief of the guard gave him a food-ration and a gift and sent him off.
Now while he was not yet gone back, he said, Go back also to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon hath made governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people: or go wheresoever it seemeth convenient unto thee to go. So the captain of the guard gave him victuals and a reward, and let him go.
But before Jeremiah turned to go, Nebuzaradan added, “Return to Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon has appointed over the cities of Judah, and stay with him among the people, or go anywhere else that seems right.” Then the captain of the guard gave him a ration and a gift and released him.
