Jeremiah 38:14-16
14Then King Zedekiah 1sent and 2had Jeremiah the prophet brought to him at the third entrance that is in the house of the Lord; and the king said to Jeremiah, “I am going to 3ask you something; do not hide anything from me.” 15Then Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, “4If I tell you, will you not certainly put me to death? Besides, if I give you advice, you will not listen to me.” 16But King Zedekiah swore to Jeremiah in 5secret saying, “As the Lord lives, who made this 67life for us, surely I will not put you to death nor will I give you over to the hand of 8these men who are seeking your 9life.”
