Jeremiah 26:11-19
11Then the priestsH3548 and the prophetsH5030 1spokeH559 to the officialsH8269 and to allH3605 the peopleH5971, sayingH559, “A 2deathH4194 sentenceH4941 for thisH2088 manH376! For he has prophesiedH5012 3againstH413 thisH2088 cityH5892 as you have heardH8085 in your hearingH241.”
12Then JeremiahH3414 spokeH559 to allH3605 the officialsH8269 and to allH3605 the peopleH5971, sayingH559, “4The LordH3068 sentH7971 me to prophesyH5012 againstH413 thisH2088 houseH1004 and againstH413 thisH2088 cityH5892 allH3605 the wordsH1697 that you have heardH8085. 13NowH6258 therefore 5amendH3190 your waysH1870 and your deedsH4611 and obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LordH3068 your GodH430; and the LordH3068 will 6changeH5162 His mindH5162 aboutH413 the misfortuneH7463 whichH834 He has pronouncedH1696 againstH5921 you. 14But as for me, beholdH2009, 7I am in your handsH3027; doH6213 with me as is goodH2896 and rightH3477 in your sightH5869. 15OnlyH389 knowH3045 for certainH3045 that ifH518 you putH4191 me to deathH4191, you will bringH5414 8innocentH5355 bloodH1818 on yourselves, and on thisH2088 cityH5892 and on its inhabitantsH3427; for trulyH571 the LordH3068 has sentH7971 me to you to speakH1696 allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697 in your hearingH241.”
16Then the officialsH8269 and allH3605 the peopleH5971 9saidH559 to the priestsH3548 and to the prophetsH5030, “NoH369 10deathH4194 sentenceH4941 for thisH2088 manH376! For he has spokenH1696 to us in the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 our GodH430.” 17Then 11someH376 of the eldersH2205 of the landH776 roseH6965 up and spokeH559 to allH3605 the assemblyH6951 of the peopleH5971, sayingH559, 18“1213MicahH4318 of MoreshethH4183 prophesiedH5012 in the daysH3117 of HezekiahH2396 kingH4428 of JudahH3063; and he spokeH559 to allH3605 the peopleH5971 of JudahH3063, sayingH559, ‘ThusH3541 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635 has saidH559, “14ZionH6726 will be plowedH2790 as a fieldH7704, And JerusalemH3389 will becomeH1961 ruinsH5856, And the 15mountainH2022 of the houseH1004 as the 16highH1116 placesH1116 of a forestH3293.”’ 19Did HezekiahH2396 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 and allH3605 JudahH3063 putH4191 him to deathH4191? Did he not 17fearH3372 the LordH3068 and entreatH2470 the favorH6440 of the LordH3068, and 18the LordH3068 19changedH5162 His mindH5162 aboutH413 the misfortuneH7463 whichH834 He had pronouncedH1696 againstH5921 them? But we are 20committingH6213 a greatH1419 evilH7463 againstH5921 ourselvesH5315.”
