Jeremiah 38:14-23

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}

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?

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>_.

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>_:

But if thou wilt not go forth
<03318> (8799)

to the king
<04428>

of Babylon's
<0894>

princes
<08269>_,

then shall this city
<05892>

be given
<05414> (8738)

into the hand
<03027>

of the Chaldeans
<03778>_,

and they shall burn
<08313> (8804)

it with fire
<0784>_,

and thou shalt not escape out
<04422> (8735)

of their hand
<03027>_.

And Zedekiah
<06667>

the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,

I am afraid
<01672> (8802)

of the Jews
<03064>

that are fallen
<05307> (8804)

to the Chaldeans
<03778>_,

lest they deliver
<05414> (8799)

me into their hand
<03027>_,

and they mock
<05953> (8694)

me.

But Jeremiah
<03414>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

They shall not deliver
<05414> (8799)

[thee]. Obey
<08085> (8798)_,

I beseech thee, the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

which I speak
<01696> (8802)

unto thee: so it shall be well
<03190> (8799)

unto thee, and thy soul
<05315>

shall live
<02421> (8799)_.

But if thou refuse
<03986>

to go forth
<03318> (8800)_,

this [is] the word
<01697>

that the LORD
<03068>

hath shewed
<07200> (8689)

me:

And, behold, all the women
<0802>

that are left
<07604> (8738)

in the king
<04428>

of Judah's
<03063>

house
<01004>

[shall be] brought forth
<03318> (8716)

to the king
<04428>

of Babylon's
<0894>

princes
<08269>_,

and those [women] shall say
<0559> (8802)_,

Thy friends
<0582> <07965>

have set thee on
<05496> (8689)_,

and have prevailed
<03201> (8804)

against thee: thy feet
<07272>

are sunk
<02883> (8717)

in the mire
<01206>_,

[and] they are turned away
<05472> (8738)

back
<0268>_.

{Thy friends: Heb. Men of thy peace}

So they shall bring out
<03318> (8688)

all thy wives
<0802>

and thy children
<01121>

to the Chaldeans
<03778>_:

and thou shalt not escape out
<04422> (8735)

of their hand
<03027>_,

but shalt be taken
<08610> (8735)

by the hand
<03027>

of the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>_:

and thou shalt cause this city
<05892>

to be burned
<08313> (8799)

with fire
<0784>_.

{thou shalt cause...: Heb. thou shalt burn, etc}
