Jeremiah 38:4-6

4Then the princesH8269 saidH559 unto the kingH4428, LetH4994 this manH376, weH3588 prayH4994 thee, be putH4191 to deathH4191; forasmuch as he weakeneth the handsH3027 of the menH376 of warH4421 that remainH7604 in this cityH5892, and the handsH3027 of allH3605 the peopleH5971, in speakingH1696 suchH2088 wordsH1697 unto them: for this manH376 seeketh notH369 the welfareH7965 of this peopleH5971, but the hurt.

5And ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 saidH559, BeholdH2009, he is in your handH3027: for the kingH4428 is notH3201 he that canH3201 doH3201 anyH369 thingH1697 againstH854 youH3588.

6Then tookH3947 they JeremiahH3414, and castH7993 him intoH413 the dungeon of MalchijahH4441 the king’s sonH1121, that was in the courtH2691 of the guardH4307: and they letH7971 downH7993 JeremiahH3414 with cordsH2256. And in the dungeon there was noH369 waterH4325, but mireH2916: and JeremiahH3414 sankH2883 in the mireH2916.
