Jeremiah 34:8-11

8This message came to Jeremiah from the Lord after King Zedekiah made a covenant with the people, proclaiming freedom for the slaves.

9He had ordered all the people to free their Hebrew slaves—both men and women. No one was to keep a fellow Judean in bondage.

10The officials and all the people had obeyed the king’s command,

11but later they changed their minds. They took back the men and women they had freed, forcing them to be slaves again.
