ACV(i)
1 The word which came to Jeremiah from LORD, after Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had let him go from Ramah, when he had taken him being bound in chains among all the captives of Jerusalem and Judah who were carried away captive to Babylon.
2 And the captain of the guard took Jeremiah, and said to him, LORD thy God pronounced this evil upon this place,
3 and LORD has brought it, and done according as he spoke. Because ye have sinned against LORD, and have not obeyed his voice, therefore this thing has come upon you.
4 And now, behold, I loose thee this day from the chains which are upon thy hand. If it seem good to thee to come with me into Babylon, come, and I will look well to thee, but if it seems ill to thee to come with me into Babylon, forbear. Behold, all the land is before thee, where it seems good and right to thee to go, there go.
