Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan swore to them and to their men, saying, Don't be afraid to serve the Chaldeans: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.

וְלֹא־ (וְ) ve. “and”

Then Johanan the son of Kareah spoke to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, saying, Please let me go, and I will kill Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and no man shall know it: why should he take your life, that all the Jews who are gathered to you should be scattered, and the remnant of Judah perish?

וְיוֹחָנָ֣ן (וְ) ve. “and”וְאַכֶּה֙ (וְ) ve. “and”וְאִ֖ישׁ (וְ) ve. “and”
