Jeremiah 39:11-18

11Now NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 gave chargeH6680 concerning JeremiahH3414 toH3027 NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876, sayingH559,12 12TakeH3947 him, and look wellH5869H7760 to him, and doH6213 him no harmH3972H7451; but doH6213 to him even as he shall sayH1696 to thee.3 13So NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 sentH7971, and NebushasbanH5021, RabsarisH7249, and NergalsharezerH5371, RabmagH7248, and all the kingH4428 of Babylon’sH894 princesH7227;4 14Even they sentH7971, and tookH3947 JeremiahH3414 out of the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307, and committedH5414 him to GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, that he should carryH3318 him homeH1004: so he dweltH3427 amongH8432 the peopleH5971. 15Now the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came to JeremiahH3414, while he was shut upH6113 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307, sayingH559, 16GoH1980 and speakH559 to EbedmelechH5663 the CushiteH3569, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will bringH935 my wordsH1697 upon this cityH5892 for evilH7451, and not for goodH2896; and they shall be accomplished in that dayH3117 beforeH6440 thee. 17But I will deliverH5337 thee in that dayH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: and thou shalt not be givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the menH582 of whomH6440 thou art afraidH3016. 18For I will surelyH4422 deliverH4422 thee, and thou shalt not fallH5307 by the swordH2719, but thy lifeH5315 shall be for a prizeH7998 to thee: because thou hast put thy trustH982 in me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
