Jeremiah 36:14-21

14All the officials sent Jehudi son of Nethaniah son of Shelemiah son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying: “Bring in your hand the megillah which you read in the ears of the people and come.” So Baruch son of Neriah brought the megillah in his hand and went to them.

15Then they said to him: “Sit down now, and read it in our ears.” So Baruch read it in their ears.

16After they had heard all the words, they turned to each other in fear, then said to Baruch: “We will surely report all these words to the king.”

17They also asked Baruch, saying: “Tell us now, how did you write all these words? At his dictation?”

18Then Baruch answered them: “He pronounced all these words to me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink into the scroll.”

19Then the officials said to Baruch: “Go, hide yourself—you and Jeremiah—and let no one know where you are.”

20Then they went to the king in the courtyard, after they had deposited the megillah in the chamber of the scribe Elishama. They reported all the words in the ears of the king.

21So the king sent Jehudi to fetch the megillah , and he brought it out of the chamber of the scribe Elishama. Jehudi read it in the ears of the king and all the officials who were standing by the king.
