Jeremiah 36:10-19

10Then Baruch read to all the people from the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the Lord in the 1chamber of 2Gemariah the son of Shaphan the 3scribe, in the upper courtyard, at the 4entry of the New Gate of the Lord’s house.

11Now when 5Micaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard all the words of the Lord from the book, 12he went down to the king’s house, into the scribe’s chamber. And behold, all the officials were sitting there--6Elishama the scribe, 7Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, 8Elnathan the son of Achbor, Gemariah the son of Shaphan, Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the other officials. 13And Micaiah 9declared to them all the words that he had heard when Baruch read from the book to the people. 14Then all the officials sent 10Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, who was the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, “Take in your hand the scroll from which you have read to the people and come.” So Baruch the son of Neriah 11took the scroll in his hand and came to them. 15And they said to him, “Sit down, please, and read it to us.” So Baruch 12read it to them. 16When they had heard all the words, they turned in 13fear one to another. And they said to Baruch, “We will certainly 14report all these words to the king.” 17Then they asked Baruch, saying, “Tell us, please, 15how did you write all these words? Was it 16at Jeremiah’s dictation?” 18And Baruch said to them, “He 17dictated all these words to me, and I wrote them with ink on the book.” 19Then the officials said to Baruch, “Go, 18hide yourself, you and Jeremiah, and do not let anyone know where you are.”
