Then ShephatiahH8203 the sonH1121 of MattanH4977, and GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of PashurH6583, and JucalH3116 the sonH1121 of ShelemiahH8018, and PashurH6583 the sonH1121 of MalchiahH4441, heardH8085 the wordsH1697 that JeremiahH3414 had spokenH1696 unto all the peopleH5971, sayingH559,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, He that remainethH3427 in this cityH5892 shall dieH4191 by the swordH2719, by the famineH7458, and by the pestilenceH1698: but he that goeth forthH3318 to the ChaldeansH3778 shall liveH2421; for he shall have his lifeH5315 for a preyH7998, and shall liveH2421+H2425.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, This cityH5892 shall surelyH5414 be givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of Babylon'sH894 armyH2428, which shall takeH3920 it.
Therefore the princesH8269 saidH559 unto the kingH4428, We beseech thee, let this manH376 be put to deathH4191: for thusH3651 he weakenethH7503 the handsH3027 of the menH582 of warH4421 that remainH7604 in this cityH5892, and the handsH3027 of all the peopleH5971, in speakingH1696 such wordsH1697 unto them: for this manH376 seekethH1875 not the welfareH7965 of this peopleH5971, but the hurtH7451. {welfare: Heb. peace}
Then ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 saidH559, Behold, he is in your handH3027: for the kingH4428 is not he that canH3201 do any thingH1697 against you.
Then tookH3947 they JeremiahH3414, and castH7993 him into the dungeonH953 of MalchiahH4441 the sonH1121 of HammelechH4428, that was in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307: and they let downH7971 JeremiahH3414 with cordsH2256. And in the dungeonH953 there was no waterH4325, but mireH2916: so JeremiahH3414 sunkH2883 in the mireH2916. {of Hammelech: or, of the king}
Now when EbedmelechH5663 the EthiopianH3569, oneH376 of the eunuchsH5631 which was in the king'sH4428 houseH1004, heardH8085 that they had putH5414 JeremiahH3414 in the dungeonH953; the kingH4428 then sittingH3427 in the gateH8179 of BenjaminH1144;
EbedmelechH5663 went forthH3318 out of the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and spakeH1696 to the kingH4428, sayingH559,
My lordH113 the kingH4428, these menH582 have done evilH7489 in all that they have doneH6213 to JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, whom they have castH7993 into the dungeonH953; and he is like to dieH4191 forH6440 hungerH7458 in the placeH8478 where he is: for there is no more breadH3899 in the cityH5892. {he is like…: Heb. he will die}
Then the kingH4428 commandedH6680 EbedmelechH5663 the EthiopianH3569, sayingH559, TakeH3947 from hence thirtyH7970 menH582 with theeH3027, and take upH5927 JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 out of the dungeonH953, before he dieH4191. {with thee: Heb. in thine hand}
So EbedmelechH5663 tookH3947 the menH582 with himH3027, and wentH935 into the houseH1004 of the kingH4428 under the treasuryH214, and tookH3947 thence oldH1094 cast cloutsH5499 and oldH1094 rotten ragsH4418, and let them downH7971 by cordsH2256 into the dungeonH953 to JeremiahH3414.
And EbedmelechH5663 the EthiopianH3569 saidH559 unto JeremiahH3414, PutH7760 now these oldH1094 cast cloutsH5499 and rotten ragsH4418 under thine armholesH679+H3027 under the cordsH2256. And JeremiahH3414 didH6213 so.
So they drew upH4900 JeremiahH3414 with cordsH2256, and took him upH5927 out of the dungeonH953: and JeremiahH3414 remainedH3427 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307.
Then ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 sentH7971, and tookH3947 JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 unto him into the thirdH7992 entryH3996 that is in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068: and the kingH4428 saidH559 unto JeremiahH3414, I will askH7592 thee a thingH1697; hideH3582 nothing from me. {third: or, principal}
Then JeremiahH3414 saidH559 unto ZedekiahH6667, If I declareH5046 it unto thee, wilt thou not surelyH4191 put me to deathH4191? and if I give thee counselH3289, wilt thou not hearkenH8085 unto me?
So ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 swareH7650 secretlyH5643 unto JeremiahH3414, sayingH559, As the LORDH3068 livethH2416, that madeH6213 us this soulH5315, I will not put thee to deathH4191, neither will I giveH5414 thee into the handH3027 of these menH582 that seekH1245 thy lifeH5315.
Then saidH559 JeremiahH3414 unto ZedekiahH6667, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; If thou wilt assuredlyH3318 go forthH3318 unto the kingH4428 of Babylon'sH894 princesH8269, then thy soulH5315 shall liveH2421, and this cityH5892 shall not be burnedH8313 with fireH784; and thou shalt liveH2421, and thine houseH1004:
But if thou wilt not go forthH3318 to the kingH4428 of Babylon'sH894 princesH8269, then shall this cityH5892 be givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778, and they shall burnH8313 it with fireH784, and thou shalt not escape outH4422 of their handH3027.
And ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 saidH559 unto JeremiahH3414, I am afraidH1672 of the JewsH3064 that are fallenH5307 to the ChaldeansH3778, lest they deliverH5414 me into their handH3027, and they mockH5953 me.
But JeremiahH3414 saidH559, They shall not deliverH5414 thee. ObeyH8085, I beseech thee, the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068, which I speakH1696 unto thee: so it shall be wellH3190 unto thee, and thy soulH5315 shall liveH2421.
But if thou refuseH3986 to go forthH3318, this is the wordH1697 that the LORDH3068 hath shewedH7200 me:
And, behold, all the womenH802 that are leftH7604 in the kingH4428 of Judah'sH3063 houseH1004 shall be brought forthH3318 to the kingH4428 of Babylon'sH894 princesH8269, and those women shall sayH559, Thy friendsH582+H7965 have set thee onH5496, and have prevailedH3201 against thee: thy feetH7272 are sunkH2883 in the mireH1206, and they are turned awayH5472 backH268. {Thy friends: Heb. Men of thy peace}
So they shall bring outH3318 all thy wivesH802 and thy childrenH1121 to the ChaldeansH3778: and thou shalt not escape outH4422 of their handH3027, but shalt be takenH8610 by the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894: and thou shalt cause this cityH5892 to be burnedH8313 with fireH784. {thou shalt cause…: Heb. thou shalt burn, etc}
Then saidH559 ZedekiahH6667 unto JeremiahH3414, Let no manH376 knowH3045 of these wordsH1697, and thou shalt not dieH4191.
But if the princesH8269 hearH8085 that I have talkedH1696 with thee, and they comeH935 unto thee, and sayH559 unto thee, DeclareH5046 unto us now what thou hast saidH1696 unto the kingH4428, hideH3582 it not from us, and we will not put thee to deathH4191; also what the kingH4428 saidH1696 unto thee:
Then thou shalt sayH559 unto them, I presentedH5307 my supplicationH8467 beforeH6440 the kingH4428, that he would not cause me to returnH7725 to Jonathan'sH3083 houseH1004, to dieH4191 there.
Then cameH935 all the princesH8269 unto JeremiahH3414, and askedH7592 him: and he toldH5046 them according to all these wordsH1697 that the kingH4428 had commandedH6680. So they left off speakingH2790 with him; for the matterH1697 was not perceivedH8085. {they…: Heb. they were silent from him}
So JeremiahH3414 abodeH3427 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307 until the dayH3117 that JerusalemH3389 was takenH3920: and he was there when JerusalemH3389 was takenH3920.

So JeremiahH3414 abodeH3427 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307 until the dayH3117 that JerusalemH3389 was takenH3920: and he was there when JerusalemH3389 was takenH3920.
Then ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 commandedH6680 that they should commitH6485 JeremiahH3414 into the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307, and that they should giveH5414 him dailyH3117 a pieceH3603 of breadH3899 out of the bakers'H644 streetH2351, until all the breadH3899 in the cityH5892 were spentH8552. Thus JeremiahH3414 remainedH3427 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307.
Even they sentH7971, and tookH3947 JeremiahH3414 out of the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307, and committedH5414 him unto GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, that he should carryH3318 him homeH1004: so he dweltH3427 amongH8432 the peopleH5971.
Now the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto JeremiahH3414, while he was shut upH6113 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307, sayingH559,
GoH1980 and speakH559 to EbedmelechH5663 the EthiopianH3569, 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.
But 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.
For I will surelyH4422 deliverH4422 thee, and thou shalt not fallH5307 by the swordH2719, but thy lifeH5315 shall be for a preyH7998 unto thee: because thou hast put thy trustH982 in me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
And sayH559, Thus saithH559 the kingH4428, PutH7760 this fellow in the prisonH1004+H3608, and feedH398 him with breadH3899 of afflictionH3906 and with waterH4325 of afflictionH3906, until I comeH935 in peaceH7965.
I will hearG1251 theeG4675, said heG5346, whenG3752 thineG4675 accusersG2725 areG3854 alsoG2532 comeG3854. AndG5037 he commandedG2753 himG846 to be keptG5442 inG1722 Herod'sG2264 judgment hallG4232.
AndG5037 he commandedG1299 a centurionG1543 to keepG5083 PaulG3972, andG5037 to let him haveG2192 libertyG425, andG2532 that he should forbidG2967 noneG3367 of hisG846 acquaintanceG2398 to ministerG5256 orG2228 comeG4334 unto himG846.
AndG1161 afterG3326 certainG5100 daysG2250, when FelixG5344 cameG3854 withG4862 hisG846 wifeG1135 DrusillaG1409, which wasG5607 a JewessG2453, he sent forG3343 PaulG3972, andG2532 heardG191 himG846 concerningG4012 the faithG4102 inG1519 ChristG5547.
AndG1161 as heG846 reasonedG1256 ofG4012 righteousnessG1343, temperanceG2532+G1466, andG2532 judgmentG2917 to comeG3195+G1510, FelixG5344 trembledG1096+G1719, and answeredG611, Go thy wayG4198 for this timeG3568; whenG1161 I haveG2192+G3335 a convenient seasonG2540, I will call forG3333 theeG4571.
He hopedG1679 alsoG260+G1161+G2532 thatG3754 moneyG5536 should have been givenG1325 himG846 ofG5259 PaulG3972, thatG3704 he might looseG3089 himG846: whereforeG1352 he sent forG3343 himG846 the oftenerG4437, andG2532 communed withG3656 himG846.
