Jeremiah 26:11-19
11Then spakeH559 the priestsH3548 and the prophetsH5030 unto the princesH8269 and to all the peopleH5971, sayingH559, This manH376 is worthyH4941 to dieH4194; for he hath prophesiedH5012 against this cityH5892, as ye have heardH8085 with your earsH241.1
12Then spakeH559 JeremiahH3414 unto all the princesH8269 and to all the peopleH5971, sayingH559, YhwhH3068 sentH7971 me to prophesyH5012 against this houseH1004 and against this cityH5892 all the wordsH1697 that ye have heardH8085. 13Therefore now amendH3190 your waysH1870 and your doingsH4611, and obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of YhwhH3068 your GodH430; And YhwhH3068 will repentH5162 him of the evilH7451 that he hath pronouncedH1696 against you. 14As for me, behold, I am in your handH3027: doH6213 with me as seemethH5869 goodH2896 and meetH3477 unto you.2 15But knowH3045 ye for certainH3045, that if ye put me to deathH4191, ye shall surely bringH5414 innocentH5355 bloodH1818 upon yourselves, and upon this cityH5892, and upon the inhabitantsH3427 thereof: for of a truthH571 YhwhH3068 hath sentH7971 me unto you to speakH1696 all these wordsH1697 in your earsH241.
16Then saidH559 the princesH8269 and all the peopleH5971 unto the priestsH3548 and to the prophetsH5030; This manH376 is not worthyH4941 to dieH4194: for he hath spokenH1696 to us in the nameH8034 of YhwhH3068 our GodH430. 17Then rose upH6965 certainH582 of the eldersH2205 of the landH776, and spakeH559 to all the assemblyH6951 of the peopleH5971, sayingH559, 18MicahH4320 the MorasthiteH4183 prophesiedH5012 in the daysH3117 of HezekiahH2396 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and spakeH559 to all the peopleH5971 of JudahH3063, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635; ZionH6726 shall be plowedH2790 like a fieldH7704, and JerusalemH3389 shall become heapsH5856, and the mountainH2022 of the houseH1004 as the high placesH1116 of a forestH3293. 19Did HezekiahH2396 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 and all JudahH3063 put him at allH4191 to deathH4191? did he not fearH3373 YhwhH3068, and besoughtH2470 YhwhH6440H3068, And YhwhH3068 repentedH5162 him of the evilH7451 which he had pronouncedH1696 against them? ThusH587 might we procureH6213 greatH1419 evilH7451 against our soulsH5315.3
