2 Raja-raja 25:24

Lalu Gedalya meyakinkan mereka, “Jangan takut. Pemerintah Babel tidak akan mencelakai kalian. Tinggallah di wilayah ini dan taatlah kepada raja Babel, maka kalian akan baik-baik saja.”

And Gedaliah sware to them, and to their men, and said unto them, Fear not to be the servants of the Chaldees: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon; and it shall be well with you.
