Jeremiah 26:12-16
12Then Jeremiah spoke to all the officials and to all the people, saying, “1The Lord sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city all the words that you have heard. 13Now therefore 2amend your ways and your deeds and obey the voice of the Lord your God; and the Lord will 3change His mind about the misfortune which He has pronounced against you. 14But as for me, behold, 4I am in your hands; do with me as is good and right in your sight. 15Only know for certain that if you put me to death, you will bring 5innocent blood on yourselves, and on this city and on its inhabitants; for truly the Lord has sent me to you to speak all these words in your hearing.”
16Then the officials and all the people 6said to the priests and to the prophets, “No 7death sentence for this man! For he has spoken to us in the name of the Lord our God.”
