38:1

Then Shephatiah
<08203>

the son
<01121>

of Mattan
<04977>_,

and Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Pashur
<06583>_,

and Jucal
<03116>

the son
<01121>

of Shelemiah
<08018>_,

and Pashur
<06583>

the son
<01121>

of Malchiah
<04441>_,

heard
<08085> (8799)

the words
<01697>

that Jeremiah
<03414>

had spoken
<01696> (8764)

unto all the people
<05971>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Jeremiah 38:10-17

38:10

Then the king
<04428>

commanded
<06680> (8762)

Ebedmelech
<05663>

the Ethiopian
<03569>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Take
<03947> (8798)

from hence thirty
<07970>

men
<0582>

with thee
<03027>_,

and take up
<05927> (8689)

Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>

out of the dungeon
<0953>_,

before he die
<04191> (8799)_.

{with thee: Heb. in thine hand}

38:11

So Ebedmelech
<05663>

took
<03947> (8799)

the men
<0582>

with him
<03027>_,

and went
<0935> (8799)

into the house
<01004>

of the king
<04428>

under the treasury
<0214>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

thence old
<01094>

cast clouts
<05499>

and old
<01094>

rotten rags
<04418>_,

and let them down
<07971> (8762)

by cords
<02256>

into the dungeon
<0953>

to Jeremiah
<03414>_.

38:12

And Ebedmelech
<05663>

the Ethiopian
<03569>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,

Put
<07760> (8798)

now [these] old
<01094>

cast clouts
<05499>

and rotten rags
<04418>

under thine armholes
<0679> <03027>

under the cords
<02256>_.

And Jeremiah
<03414>

did
<06213> (8799)

so.

38:13

So they drew up
<04900> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>

with cords
<02256>_,

and took him up
<05927> (8686)

out of the dungeon
<0953>_:

and Jeremiah
<03414>

remained
<03427> (8799)

in the court
<02691>

of the prison
<04307>_.

38:14

Then Zedekiah
<06667>

the king
<04428>

sent
<07971> (8799)_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>

unto him into the third
<07992>

entry
<03996>

that [is] in the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

and the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,

I will ask
<07592> (8802)

thee a thing
<01697>_;

hide
<03582> (8762)

nothing from me. {third: or, principal}

38:15

Then Jeremiah
<03414>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Zedekiah
<06667>_,

If I declare
<05046> (8686)

[it] unto thee, wilt thou not surely
<04191> (8687)

put me to death
<04191> (8686)_?

and if I give thee counsel
<03289> (8799)_,

wilt thou not hearken
<08085> (8799)

unto me?

38:16

So Zedekiah
<06667>

the king
<04428>

sware
<07650> (8735)

secretly
<05643>

unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

[As] the LORD
<03068>

liveth
<02416>_,

that made
<06213> (8804)

us this soul
<05315>_,

I will not put thee to death
<04191> (8686)_,

neither will I give
<05414> (8799)

thee into the hand
<03027>

of these men
<0582>

that seek
<01245> (8764)

thy life
<05315>_.

38:17

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>

unto Zedekiah
<06667>_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

the God
<0430>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

If thou wilt assuredly
<03318> (8800)

go forth
<03318> (8799)

unto the king
<04428>

of Babylon's
<0894>

princes
<08269>_,

then thy soul
<05315>

shall live
<02421> (8804)_,

and this city
<05892>

shall not be burned
<08313> (8735)

with fire
<0784>_;

and thou shalt live
<02421> (8804)_,

and thine house
<01004>_:

Jeremiah 36:12

36:12

Then he went down
<03381> (8799)

into the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_,

into the scribe's
<05608> (8802)

chamber
<03957>_:

and, lo, all the princes
<08269>

sat
<03427> (8802)

there, [even] Elishama
<0476>

the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,

and Delaiah
<01806>

the son
<01121>

of Shemaiah
<08098>_,

and Elnathan
<0494>

the son
<01121>

of Achbor
<05907>_,

and Gemariah
<01587>

the son
<01121>

of Shaphan
<08227>_,

and Zedekiah
<06667>

the son
<01121>

of Hananiah
<02608>_,

and all the princes
<08269>_.
