11Now when 1MicaiahH4321 the sonH1121 of GemariahH1587, the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, had heardH8085 allH3605 the wordsH1697 of the LordH3068 from the bookH5612, 12he wentH3381 downH3381 to the king’sH4428 houseH1004, into the scribe’sH5613 chamberH3957. And beholdH2009, allH3605 the officialsH8269 were sittingH3427 thereH8033--2ElishamaH476 the scribeH5613, 3DelaiahH1806 the sonH1121 of ShemaiahH8098, 4ElnathanH494 the sonH1121 of AchborH5907, GemariahH1587 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, ZedekiahH6667 the sonH1121 of HananiahH2608, and allH3605 the other officialsH8269. 13And MicaiahH4321 5declaredH5046 to them allH3605 the wordsH1697 that he had heardH8085 when BaruchH1263 readH7121 from the bookH5612 to the peopleH5971. 14Then allH3605 the officialsH8269 sentH7971 6JehudiH3065 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418, who was the sonH1121 of ShelemiahH8018, the sonH1121 of CushiH3570, to BaruchH1263, sayingH559, “TakeH3947 in your handH3027 the scrollH4039 from whichH834 you have readH7121 to the peopleH5971 and comeH1980.” So BaruchH1263 the sonH1121 of NeriahH5374 7tookH3947 the scrollH4039 in his handH3027 and cameH935 to them. 15And they saidH559 to him, “SitH3427 downH3427, pleaseH4994, and readH7121 it to us.” So BaruchH1263 8readH7121 it to them. 16When they had heardH8085 allH3605 the wordsH1697, they turnedH6342 inH6342 9fearH6342 oneH376 to anotherH7453. And they saidH559 to BaruchH1263, “We will certainlyH5046 10reportH5046 allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697 to the kingH4428.” 17Then they askedH7592 BaruchH1263, sayingH559, “TellH5046 us, pleaseH4994, 11howH349 did you writeH3789 allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697? Was it 12at Jeremiah’s dictationH6310?” 18And BaruchH1263 saidH559 to them, “He 13dictatedH4480H6310H7121 allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697 to me, and I wroteH3789 them with inkH1773 on the bookH5612.” 19Then the officialsH8269 saidH559 to BaruchH1263, “GoH1980, 14hideH5641 yourself, you and JeremiahH3414, and do not let anyone knowH3045 whereH375 you are.”

20So they cameH935 to the 15kingH4428 in the courtyardH2691, but they had depositedH6485 the scrollH4039 in the chamberH3957 of 16ElishamaH476 the scribeH5613; and they reportedH5046H241 allH3605 the wordsH1697 to the kingH4428.
