Jeremiah 29:29

29:29 Zephaniah the priest read that letter to the prophet Jeremiah. ¹ 

Jeremiah 36:15

36:15 They said to him, “Please sit down and read it to us.” So Baruch sat down and read it to them. ² 

¹ tn Heb “in the ears of Jeremiah the prophet.”

² tn Or “‘to us personally’…to them personally”; Heb “‘in our ears’…in their ears.” Elsewhere this has been rendered “in the hearing of” or “where they could hear.” All three of those idioms sound unnatural in this context. The mere personal pronoun seems adequate.
