Jeremiah 26:17-24

17Then aroseH6965 certainH582 of the eldersH2205 of the landH776, and spokeH559 to all the assemblyH6951 of the peopleH5971, sayingH559, 18MicahH4320 the MorasthiteH4183 prophesiedH5012 in the daysH3117 of HezekiahH2396 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and spokeH559 to all the peopleH5971 of JudahH3063, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; ZionH6726 shall be plowedH2790 like a fieldH7704, and JerusalemH3389 shall become heapsH5856, and the mountainH2022 of the houseH1004 as the high placesH1116 of the forestH3293. 19Did HezekiahH2396 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 and all JudahH3063 put himH4191 to deathH4191? did he not fearH3373 the LORDH3068, and beseechH2470 the LORDH3068H6440, and the LORDH3068 repentedH5162 of the evilH7451 which he had pronouncedH1696 against them? ThusH587 might we procureH6213 greatH1419 evilH7451 against our soulsH5315.1 20And there was also a manH376 that prophesiedH5012 in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068, UrijahH223 the sonH1121 of ShemaiahH8098 of KirjathjearimH7157, who prophesiedH5012 against this cityH5892 and against this landH776 according to all the wordsH1697 of JeremiahH3414: 21And when JehoiakimH3079 the kingH4428, with all his mighty menH1368, and all the princesH8269, heardH8085 his wordsH1697, the kingH4428 soughtH1245 to put him to deathH4191: but when UrijahH223 heardH8085 it, he was afraidH3372, and fledH1272, and wentH935 into EgyptH4714; 22And JehoiakimH3079 the kingH4428 sentH7971 menH582 into EgyptH4714, namely, ElnathanH494 the sonH1121 of AchborH5907, and certain menH582 with him into EgyptH4714. 23And they brought forthH3318 UrijahH223 from EgyptH4714, and broughtH935 him to JehoiakimH3079 the kingH4428; who slewH5221 him with the swordH2719, and castH7993 his dead bodyH5038 into the burial placeH6913 of the commonH1121 peopleH5971.2 24Nevertheless the handH3027 of AhikamH296 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227 was with JeremiahH3414, that they should not giveH5414 him into the handH3027 of the peopleH5971 to put him to deathH4191.
