H8203
Then Shephatiah
H1121
the son
H4977
of Mattan,
H1436
and Gedaliah
H1121
the son
H6583
of Pashur,
H3116
and Jucal
H1121
the son
H8018
of Shelemiah,
H6583
and Pashur
H1121
the son
H4441
of Malchiah,
H8085
heard
H1697
the words
H3414
that Jeremiah
H1696
had spoken
H5971
unto all the people,
H559
saying,
2
H559
Thus says
H3068
the Lord,
H3427
He that remains
H5892
in this city
H4191
shall die
H2719
by the sword,
H7458
by the famine,
H1698
and by the pestilence:
H3318
but he that goes forth
H3778
to the Chaldeans
H2421
shall live;
H5315
for he shall have his life
H7998
for a prey,
H2421
and shall live.
3
H559
Thus says
H3068
the Lord,
H5892
This city
H5414
shall surely
H5414
be given
H3027
into the hand
H4428
of the king
H894
of Babylon's
H2428
army,
H3920
which shall take it.
4
H8269
Therefore the princes
H559
said
H4428
unto the king,
H376
We beg you, let this man
H4191
be put to death:
H3651
for thus
H7503
he weakens
H3027
the hands
H582
of the men
H4421
of war
H7604
that remain
H5892
in this city,
H3027
and the hands
H5971
of all the people,
H1696
in speaking
H1697
such words
H376
unto them: for this man
H1875
seeks
H7965
not the welfare
H5971
of this people,
H7451
but the hurt.
5
H6667
Then Zedekiah
H4428
the king
H559
said,
H3027
Behold, he is in your hand:
H4428
for the king
H3201
is not he that can
H1697
do any thing against you.
6
H3947
Then took
H3414
they Jeremiah,
H7993
and cast
H953
him into the dungeon
H4441
of Malchiah
H1121
the son
H4428
of Hammelech,
H2691
that was in the court
H4307
of the prison:
H7971
and they let down
H3414
Jeremiah
H2256
with cords.
H953
And in the dungeon
H4325
there was no water,
H2916
but mire:
H3414
so Jeremiah
H2883
sunk
H2916
in the mire.
7
H5663
Now when Ebed–melech
H3569
the Ethiopian,
H376
one
H5631
of the eunuchs
H4428
which was in the king's
H1004
house,
H8085
heard
H5414
that they had put
H3414
Jeremiah
H953
in the dungeon;
H4428
the king
H3427
then sitting
H8179
in the gate
H1144
of Benjamin;
8
H5663
Ebed–melech
H3318
went forth
H4428
out of the king's
H1004
house,
H1696
and spoke
H4428
to the king,
H559
saying,
9
H113
My lord
H4428
the king,
H582
these men
H7489
have done evil
H6213
in all that they have done
H3414
to Jeremiah
H5030
the prophet,
H7993
whom they have cast
H953
into the dungeon;
H4191
and he is like to die
H6440
for
H7458
hunger
H8478
in the place
H3899
where he is: for there is no more bread
H5892
in the city.
10
H4428
Then the king
H6680
commanded
H5663
Ebed–melech
H3569
the Ethiopian,
H559
saying,
H3947
Take
H7970
from here thirty
H582
men
H3027
with you,
H5927
and take up
H3414
Jeremiah
H5030
the prophet
H953
out of the dungeon,
H4191
before he die.
11
H5663
So Ebed–melech
H3947
took
H582
the men
H3027
with him,
H935
and went
H1004
into the house
H4428
of the king
H214
under the treasury,
H3947
and took
H1094
there old
H5499
cast rags
H1094
and old
H4418
rotten garments,
H7971
and let them down
H2256
by cords
H953
into the dungeon
H3414
to Jeremiah.
12
H5663
And Ebed–melech
H3569
the Ethiopian
H559
said
H3414
unto Jeremiah,
H7760
Put
H1094
now these old
H5499
cast rags
H4418
and rotten garments
H679
under your armholes
H2256
under the cords.
H3414
And Jeremiah
H6213
did so.
13
H4900
So they drew up
H3414
Jeremiah
H2256
with cords,
H5927
and took him up
H953
out of the dungeon:
H3414
and Jeremiah
H3427
remained
H2691
in the court
H4307
of the prison.
14
H6667
Then Zedekiah
H4428
the king
H7971
sent,
H3947
and took
H3414
Jeremiah
H5030
the prophet
H7992
unto him into the third
H3996
entry
H1004
that is in the house
H3068
of the Lord:
H4428
and the king
H559
said
H3414
unto Jeremiah,
H7592
I will ask
H1697
you a thing;
H3582
hide nothing from me.
15
H3414
Then Jeremiah
H559
said
H6667
unto Zedekiah,
H5046
If I declare
H4191
it unto you, will you not surely
H4191
put me to death?
H3289
and if I give you counsel,
H8085
will you not listen unto me?
16
H6667
So Zedekiah
H4428
the king
H7650
swore
H5643
secretly
H3414
unto Jeremiah,
H559
saying,
H3068
As the Lord
H2416
lives,
H6213
that made
H5315
us this soul,
H4191
I will not put you to death,
H5414
neither will I give
H3027
you into the hand
H582
of these men
H1245
that seek
H5315
your life.
17
H559
Then said
H3414
Jeremiah
H6667
unto Zedekiah,
H559
Thus says
H3068
the Lord,
H430
the God
H6635
of hosts,
H430
the God
H3478
of Israel;
H3318
If you will assuredly
H3318
go forth
H4428
unto the king
H894
of Babylon's
H8269
princes,
H5315
then your soul
H2421
shall live,
H5892
and this city
H8313
shall not be burned
H784
with fire;
H2421
and you shall live,
H1004
and your house:
18
H3318
But if you will not go forth
H4428
to the king
H894
of Babylon's
H8269
princes,
H5892
then shall this city
H5414
be given
H3027
into the hand
H3778
of the Chaldeans,
H8313
and they shall burn
H784
it with fire,
H4422
and you shall not escape out
H3027
of their hand.
19
H6667
And Zedekiah
H4428
the king
H559
said
H3414
unto Jeremiah,
H1672
I am afraid
H3064
of the Jews
H5307
that are fallen
H3778
to the Chaldeans,
H5414
lest they deliver
H3027
me into their hand,
H5953
and they mock me.
20
H3414
But Jeremiah
H559
said,
H5414
They shall not deliver
H8085
you. Obey,
H6963
I beg you, the voice
H3068
of the Lord,
H1696
which I speak
H3190
unto you: so it shall be well
H5315
unto you, and your soul
H2421
shall live.
21
H3986
But if you refuse
H3318
to go forth,
H1697
this is the word
H3068
that the Lord
H7200
has showed me:
22
H802
And, behold, all the women
H7604
that are left
H4428
in the king
H3063
of Judah's
H1004
house
H3318
shall be brought forth
H4428
to the king
H894
of Babylon's
H8269
princes,
H559
and those women shall say,
H582
Your friends
H5496
have set you on,
H3201
and have prevailed
H7272
against you: your feet
H2883
are sunk
H1206
in the mire,
H5472
and they are turned away
H268
back.
23
H3318
So they shall bring out
H802
all your wives
H1121
and your sons
H3778
to the Chaldeans:
H4422
and you shall not escape out
H3027
of their hand,
H8610
but shall be taken
H3027
by the hand
H4428
of the king
H894
of Babylon:
H5892
and you shall cause this city
H8313
to be burned
H784
with fire.
24
H559
Then said
H6667
Zedekiah
H3414
unto Jeremiah,
H376
Let no man
H3045
know
H1697
of these words,
H4191
and you shall not die.
25
H8269
But if the princes
H8085
hear
H1696
that I have talked
H935
with you, and they come
H559
unto you, and say
H5046
unto you, Declare
H1696
unto us now what you have said
H4428
unto the king,
H3582
hide
H4191
it not from us, and we will not put you to death;
H4428
also what the king
H1696
said unto you:
26
H559
Then you shall say
H5307
unto them, I presented
H8467
my supplication
H6440
before
H4428
the king,
H7725
that he would not cause me to return
H3083
to Jonathan's
H1004
house,
H4191
to die there.
