Jeremiah 36:22-30

22Now the king was sitting in the 1winter house in the 2ninth 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 3threw 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 4not afraid, nor did they 5rend their garments. 25Even though Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah 6pleaded 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 7seize Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet, but the 8Lord hid them.

27Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah after the king had 9burned the scroll and the words which 10Baruch had written at the dictation of Jeremiah, saying, 28“11Take again another scroll and write on it all the former words that were 12on the first scroll which Jehoiakim the king of Judah burned. 29And concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah you shall say, ‘Thus says the Lord, “You have 13burned this scroll, saying, ‘14Why have you written on it 15that the 16king of Babylon will certainly come and destroy this land, and will make man and beast to cease from it?’” 30Therefore thus says the Lord concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah, “He shall have 17no one to sit on the throne of David, and his 18dead body shall be cast out to the heat of the day and the frost of the night.
