Jeremiah 26:11-19

11And the priestsH3548 and the prophetsH5030 spoke unto the princesH8269 and to all the peopleH5971, sayingH559, This manH376 is worthy to die, for he hath prophesiedH5012 against this cityH5892, as ye have heardH8085 with your earsH241.

12And JeremiahH3414 spoke to all the princesH8269 and to all the peopleH5971, sayingH559, Jehovah sentH7971 me to prophesyH5012 against this houseH1004 and against this cityH5892 all the wordsH1697 that ye have heardH8085.

13And nowH6258, amend your waysH1870 and your doings, and hearken to the voiceH6963 of Jehovah your 1GodH430; and Jehovah will repentH5162 him of the evilH7451 that he hath pronounced against you.

14But as for me, behold, I am in your handH3027; do unto me as seemeth goodH2896 and rightH3477 in your eyesH5869:

15onlyH389 knowH3045 for certain that if ye putH5414 me to deathH4191, ye shall surely bring innocentH5355 bloodH1818 upon yourselves, and upon this cityH5892, and upon the inhabitantsH3427 thereof; for of a truthH571 Jehovah hath sentH7971 me unto you to speakH1696 all these wordsH1697 in your earsH241.

16And the princesH8269 and all the peopleH5971 saidH559 unto the priestsH3548 and to the prophetsH5030, This manH376 is not worthy to die; for he hath spokenH1696 to us in the nameH8034 of Jehovah our 2GodH430.

17And there roseH6965 up certain of the eldersH2205 of the landH776 and spoke to all the congregation of the peopleH5971, sayingH559,

18Micah the Morasthite prophesiedH5012 in the daysH3117 of HezekiahH2396 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and spoke to all the peopleH5971 of JudahH3063, sayingH559, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635: ZionH6726 shall beH1961 ploughed [as] a fieldH7704, and JerusalemH3389 shall becomeH1961 heaps, and the mountainH2022 of the houseH1004 as the highH1116 placesH1116 of a forestH3293.

19Did HezekiahH2396 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 and all JudahH3063 putH4191 him at all to deathH4191? Did he not fearH3373 Jehovah, and supplicate Jehovah, and Jehovah repentedH5162 him of the evilH7451 that he had pronounced against them? And we should be doing a greatH1419 evilH7451 against our soulsH5315.
