Jeremiah 36:21-25
21So the kingH4428 sentH7971 JehudiH3065 to fetchH3947 the rollH4039: and he tookH3947 it out of ElishamaH476 the scribe’sH5608 chamberH3957. And JehudiH3065 readH7121 it in the earsH241 of the kingH4428, and in the earsH241 of all the princesH8269 which stoodH5975 besideH5921 the kingH4428.
22Now the kingH4428 satH3427 in the winterhouseH2779H1004 in the ninthH8671 monthH2320: and there was a fire on the hearthH254 burningH1197 beforeH6440 him.
23And it came to pass, that when JehudiH3065 had readH7121 threeH7969 or fourH702 leavesH1817, he cutH7167 it with the penknifeH5608H8593, and castH7993 it into the fireH784 that was on the hearthH254, until all the rollH4039 was consumedH8552 in the fireH784 that was on the hearthH254.
24Yet they were not afraidH6342, nor rentH7167 their garmentsH899, neither the kingH4428, nor any of his servantsH5650 that heardH8085 all these wordsH1697.
25Nevertheless ElnathanH494 and DelaiahH1806 and GemariahH1587 had made intercessionH6293 to the kingH4428 that he would not burnH8313 the rollH4039: but he would not hearH8085 them.
