Jeremiah 36:22-30

22Now the kingH4428 was sittingH3427 in the 1winterH2779 houseH1004 in the 2ninthH8671 monthH2320, with a fire burningH1197 in the brazierH254 beforeH6440 him. 23And when JehudiH3065 had readH7121 threeH7969 or fourH702 columnsH1817, the king cutH7167 it with a scribe’sH5613 knifeH8593 and 3threwH7993 it into the fireH784 that was in the brazierH254, untilH5704 allH3605 of the scrollH4039 was consumedH8552 in the fireH784 that was in the brazierH254. 24Yet the kingH4428 and allH3605 his servantsH5650 who heardH8085 allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697 did 4not trembleH6342 inH6342 fearH6342, norH3808 did they 5tearH7167 their garmentsH899. 25Even thoughH1571 ElnathanH494, DelaiahH1806, and GemariahH1587 6urgedH6293 the kingH4428 not to burnH8313 the scrollH4039, he would not listenH8085 to them. 26And the kingH4428 commandedH6680 JerahmeelH3396 the king’sH4428 sonH1121, SeraiahH8304 the sonH1121 of AzrielH5837, and ShelemiahH8018 the sonH1121 of AbdeelH5655 to 7seizeH3947 BaruchH1263 the scribeH5613 and JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, but the 8LordH3068 hidH5641 them.

27Then the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to JeremiahH3414 afterH310 the kingH4428 had 9burnedH8313 the scrollH4039 and the wordsH1697 whichH834 10BaruchH1263 had writtenH3789 11at the dictationH6310 of JeremiahH3414, sayingH559, 28“12TakeH3947 againH7725 anotherH312 scrollH4039 and writeH3789 on it allH3605 the previousH7223 wordsH1697 that were 13on the firstH7223 scrollH4039, whichH834 JehoiakimH3079 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 burnedH8313. 29And concerningH5921 JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 you shall sayH559, ‘ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559: “You have 14burnedH8313 thisH2088 scrollH4039, sayingH559, ‘15WhyH4069 have you writtenH3789 on it 16that the 17kingH4428 of BabylonH894 will certainlyH935 comeH935 and destroyH7843 thisH2088 landH776, and will make mankindH120 and animalsH929 disappearH7673 from it?’” 30ThereforeH3651 thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559 concerningH5921 JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063: “He shall haveH1961 18noH3808 one to sitH3427 on the throneH3678 of DavidH1732, and his 19deadH5038 bodyH5038 shall be thrownH7993 outH7993 to the heatH2721 of the dayH3117 and the frostH7140 of the nightH3915.
