Jeremiah 37:17-20
17Now KingH4428 ZedekiahH6667 sentH7971 men and tookH3947 him out; and in his palaceH1004 the kingH4428 1secretlyH5643 askedH7592 him and saidH559, “IsH3426 thereH3426 a 2wordH1697 from the LordH3068?” And JeremiahH3414 saidH559, “ThereH3426 isH3426!” Then he saidH559, “You will be 3handedH5414H3027 overH5414 to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894!”
18Moreover, JeremiahH3414 saidH559 to KingH4428 ZedekiahH6667, “4In whatH4100 way have I sinnedH2398 against you, or your servantsH5650, or thisH2088 peopleH5971, that you have putH5414 me in prisonH1004H3608?
19And 5whereH346 are your prophetsH5030 whoH834 prophesiedH5012 to you, sayingH559, ‘The 6kingH4428 of BabylonH894 will not comeH935 againstH5921 you or againstH5921 thisH2088 landH776’?
20But nowH6258, pleaseH4994 listenH8085, my lordH113 the kingH4428; pleaseH4994 let my 7pleaH8467 8comeH5307 beforeH6440 you and do not make me returnH7725 to the houseH1004 of JonathanH3083 the scribeH5613, so that I will not dieH4191 thereH8033.”
