Jeremiah 42:2-5
2And said unto Jeremiah the prophet, Let, we beseech thee, our supplication be accepted before thee, and pray for us unto Yhwh thy God, even for all this remnant; (for we are left but a few of many, as thine eyes do behold us:)1
3That Yhwh thy God may shew us the way wherein we may walk, and the thing that we may do.
4Then Jeremiah the prophet said unto them, I have heard you; behold, I will pray unto Yhwh your God according to your words; and it shall come to pass, that whatsoever thing Yhwh shall answer you, I will declare it unto you; I will keep nothing back from you.
5Then they said to Jeremiah, Yhwh be a true and faithful witness between us, if we do not even according to all things for the which Yhwh thy God shall send thee to us.
