Jeremiah 37:12-14

12that Jeremiah left Jerusalem to go to the land of Benjamin in order to 1take 2possession of some property there among the people.

13While he was at the 3Gate of Benjamin, a captain of the guard whose name was Irijah, the son of Shelemiah the son of Hananiah was there; and he 4arrested Jeremiah the prophet, saying, “You are deserting to the Chaldeans!”

14But Jeremiah said, “5A lie! I am not deserting to the Chaldeans”; yet he would not listen to him. So Irijah arrested Jeremiah and brought him to the officials.
