Jeremiah 38:25-28 But if it comes to the ears of the rulers that I have been talking with you, and they come and say to you, Give us word now of what you have said to the king and what the king said to you, keeping nothing back and we will not put you to death;

BBE⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁵ But if it comes to the ears of the rulers that I have been talking with you, and they come and say to you, Give us word now of what you have said to the king and what the king said to you, keeping nothing back and we will not put you to death; ²⁶ Then you are to say to them, I made my request to the king, that he would not send me back to my death in Jonathan's house. ²⁷ Then all the rulers came to Jeremiah, questioning him: and he gave them an answer in the words the king had given him orders to say. So they said nothing more to him; for the thing was not made public. ²⁸ So Jeremiah was kept in the place of the armed watchmen till the day when Jerusalem was taken.
