"Take him and ^(F1)look after him, and ^(C1)do not do anything harmful to him, but rather deal with him just as he tells you."

they even sent word and ^(C1)took Jeremiah out of the courtyard of the guardhouse and entrusted him to ^(C2)Gedaliah, the son of ^(C3)Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, to take him home. So he stayed among the people.
