Jeremiah 29:25-32

Brenton(i) 25 (36:25) I sent thee not in my name: and to Sophonias the priest the son of Maasaeas say thou, 26 (36:26) The Lord has made thee priest in the place of Jodae the priest, to be ruler in the house of the Lord over every prophet, and to every madman, and thou shalt put them in prison, and into the dungeon. 27 (36:27) And now wherefore have ye reviled together Jeremias of Anathoth, who prophesied to you? 28 (36:28) Did he not send for this purpose? for in the course of this month he sent to you to Babylon, saying, It is far off: build ye houses, and inhabit them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them. 29 (36:29) And Sophonias read the book in the ears of Jeremias. 30 (36:30) Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, saying, 31 (36:31) Send to the captivity, saying, Thus saith the Lord concerning Samaeas the Aelamite, Since Samaeas has prophesied to you, and I sent him not, and he has made you to trust in iniquity, 32 (36:32) therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold, I will visit Samaeas, and his family: and there shall not be a man of them in the midst of you to see the good which I will do to you: they shall not see it.
