Jeremiah 36:11-25
11And when MicaiahH4321 the sonH1121 of GemariahH1587, the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, had heardH8085 outH5921 of the bookH5612 allH3605 the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068,
12he wentH3381 downH3381 intoH5921 the king’sH4428 houseH1004, intoH5921 the scribe’s chamberH3957: and, loH2009, allH3605 the princesH8269 satH3427 there, evenH5921 ElishamaH476 the scribeH5608, and DelaiahH1806 the sonH1121 of ShemaiahH8098, and ElnathanH494 the sonH1121 of AchborH5907, and GemariahH1587 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, and ZedekiahH6667 the sonH1121 of HananiahH2608, and allH3605 the princesH8269.
13Then MicaiahH4321 declaredH5046 unto them allH3605 the wordsH1697 that he had heardH8085, when BaruchH1263 readH7121 the bookH5612 in the earsH241 of the peopleH5971.
14Therefore allH3605 the princesH8269 sentH7971 JehudiH3065 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418, the sonH1121 of ShelemiahH8018, the sonH1121 of CushiH3570, unto BaruchH1263, sayingH559, TakeH3947 in thine handH3027 the roll whereinH834 thou hast readH7121 in the earsH241 of the peopleH5971, and comeH935. SoH3947 BaruchH1263 the sonH1121 of NeriahH5374 tookH3947 the roll in his handH3027, and cameH935 unto them.
15And they saidH559 unto him, SitH3427 downH3427 nowH4994, and readH7121 it in our earsH241. SoH7121 BaruchH1263 readH7121 it in their earsH241.
16NowH1961 it cameH1961 to passH1961, when they had heardH8085 allH3605 the wordsH1697, they turnedH1961 in fearH6342 one towardH413 anotherH7453, and saidH559 unto BaruchH1263, WeH8085 will surelyH1961 tellH5046 the kingH4428 of allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697.
17And they askedH7592 BaruchH1263, sayingH559, tellH5046 usH4994 nowH4994, HowH349 didst thou writeH3789 allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697 at his mouthH6310?
18Then BaruchH1263 answeredH559 them, He pronounced allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697 unto meH413 with his mouthH6310, and I wroteH3789 them with inkH1773 in the bookH5612.
19Then saidH559 the princesH8269 unto BaruchH1263, Go, hideH5641 thee, thou and JeremiahH3414; and letH408 noH408 manH376 knowH3045 whereH375 ye be.
20And they wentH935 in to the kingH4428 intoH413 the courtH2691; but they had laidH935 upH935 the roll in the chamberH3957 of ElishamaH476 the scribeH5608; and they toldH5046 allH3605 the wordsH1697 in the earsH241 of the kingH4428.
21SoH3947 the kingH4428 sentH7971 JehudiH3065 to fetch the roll: and he tookH3947 it outH7971 of the chamberH3957 of ElishamaH476 the scribeH5608. And JehudiH3065 readH7121 it in the earsH241 of the kingH4428, and in the earsH241 of allH3605 the princesH8269 which stoodH5975 besideH5921 the kingH4428.
22Now the kingH4428 satH3427 in the winterH2779 houseH1004 in the ninthH8671 monthH2320: and there was a fire in the brasier burningH1197 beforeH6440 him.
23And it cameH1961 to passH1961, when JehudiH3065 had readH7121 threeH7969 or fourH702 leavesH1817, that the kingH5921 cutH7167 it with the penknife, and castH7993 it intoH413 the fireH784 that was in the brasier, untilH5704 allH3605 the roll was consumedH8552 in the fireH784 that was in the brasier.
24And they were notH3808 afraidH6342, norH3808 rent their garmentsH899, neitherH3808 the kingH4428, norH3808 anyH3605 of his servantsH5650 that heardH8085 allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697.
25MoreoverH1571 ElnathanH494 and DelaiahH1806 and GemariahH1587 had madeH8085 intercession to the kingH4428 that he would notH3808 burnH8313 the roll: but he would notH3808 hearH8085 them.
