Jeremiah 36:20-32

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. 26And the kingH4428 commandedH6680 JerahmeelH3396 the king’sH4428 sonH1121, and SeraiahH8304 the sonH1121 of AzrielH5837, and ShelemiahH8018 the sonH1121 of AbdeelH5655, to takeH3947 BaruchH1263 the scribeH5608 and JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030: but the LORDH3068 hidH5641 them. 27Then the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 to JeremiahH3414, afterH310 that the kingH4428 had burnedH8313 the roll, and the wordsH1697 whichH834 BaruchH1263 wroteH3789 at the mouthH6310 of JeremiahH3414, sayingH559, 28TakeH3947 thee againH7725 anotherH312 roll, and writeH3789 in it allH3605 the formerH7223 wordsH1697 that were in the firstH7223 roll, whichH834 JehoiakimH3079 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 hath burnedH8313. 29And concerning JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 thou shalt sayH559, ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068: Thou hast burnedH8313 this roll, sayingH559, WhyH4069 hast thou writtenH3789 therein, sayingH559, The kingH4428 of BabylonH894 shall certainlyH935 comeH935 and destroyH7843 this landH776, and shall cause to ceaseH7673 from thence manH120 and beastH929? 30Therefore thusH3541 saith the LORDH3068 concerning JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063: He shall have noneH3808 to sitH3427 uponH5921 the throneH3678 of DavidH1732: and his deadH5038 bodyH5038 shall be castH7993 outH5921 in the dayH3117 to the heat, and in the nightH3915 to the frostH7140. 31And I will punishH6485 him and his seedH2233 and his servantsH5650 for their iniquityH5771; and I will bringH935 uponH5921 them, and uponH5921 the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, and uponH5921 the menH376 of JudahH3063, allH3605 the evilH7451 that I have pronouncedH1696 againstH5921 them, but they hearkened notH3808. 32Then tookH3947 JeremiahH3414 anotherH312 roll, and gaveH5414 it to BaruchH1263 the scribeH5608, the sonH1121 of NeriahH5374; who wroteH3789 therein from the mouthH6310 of JeremiahH3414 allH3605 the wordsH1697 of the bookH5612 whichH834 JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 had burnedH8313 in the fireH784: and there were addedH3254 besidesH5921 unto them manyH7227 like wordsH1697.
