Jeremiah 36:20-26

20So they went to the 1king in the court, but they had deposited the scroll in the chamber of 2Elishama the scribe, and they reported all the words to the king. 21Then the king sent Jehudi to get the scroll, and he took it out of the chamber of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi 3read it to the king as well as to all the officials who stood beside the king. 22Now the king was sitting in the 4winter house in the 5ninth month, with a fire burning in the brazier before him. 23When Jehudi had read three or four columns, the king cut it with a scribe’s knife and 6threw it into the fire that was in the brazier, until all the scroll was consumed in the fire that was in the brazier. 24Yet the king and all his servants who heard all these words were 7not afraid, nor did they 8rend their garments. 25Even though Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah 9pleaded with the king not to burn the scroll, he would not listen to them. 26And the king commanded Jerahmeel the king’s son, Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel to 10seize Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet, but the 11Lord hid them.
