Jeremiah 37:1-5
1Now 1Zedekiah the son of Josiah whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had 2made king in the land of Judah, reigned as king in place of 3Coniah the son of Jehoiakim. 2But 4neither he nor his servants nor the people of the land listened to the words of the Lord which He spoke through Jeremiah the prophet.
3Yet 5King Zedekiah sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah, and 6the priest Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, to Jeremiah the prophet, saying, “7Please pray to the Lord our God in our behalf.” 4Now Jeremiah was still coming and going among the people, for they had not yet 8put him in prison. 5Meanwhile, 9Pharaoh’s army had set out from Egypt; and when the Chaldeans who had been besieging Jerusalem heard the report about them, they 10withdrew from Jerusalem.
