Jeremiah 40:6, 11-12

I decided to stay with my people in the land of Judah, so I went to live near Gedaliah in Mizpah.

Many people from Judah had fled to Moab, Ammon, Edom, or other countries. But when they learned that the Babylonian king had allowed the rest of the people in Judah to return and had named Gedaliah governor, they also returned to Judah from all the places where they had been scattered and reported to Gedaliah in Mizpah. The people harvested large amounts of wine and fruit.
