Brenton_Greek⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁷ Καὶ ἤκουσεν Ἀβδεμέλεχ ὁ Αἰθίοψ, καὶ αὐτὸς ἐν οἰκίᾳ τοῦ βασιλέως, ὅτι ἔδωκαν Ἱερεμίαν εἰς τὸν λάκκον· καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς ἦν ἐν τῇ πύλῃ Βενιαμὶν, ⁸ καὶ ἐξῆλθε πρὸς αὐτὸν, καὶ ἐλάλησε πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα, καὶ εἶπεν· ⁹ ἐπονηρεύσω, ἃ ἐποίησας τοῦ ἀποκτεῖναι τὸν ἄνθρωπον τοῦτον, ἀπὸ προσώπου τοῦ λιμοῦ, ὅτι οὐκ εἰσὶν ἔτι ἄρτοι ἐν τῇ πόλει. ¹⁰ Καὶ ἐνετείλατο ὁ βασιλεὺς τῷ Ἀβδεμέλεχ, λέγων, λάβε εἰς τὰς χεῖράς σου ἐντεῦθεν τριάκοντα ἀνθρώπους, καὶ ἀνάγαγε αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ λάκκου, ἵνα μὴ ἀποθάνῃ. ¹¹ Καὶ ἔλαβεν Ἀβδεμέλεχ τοὺς ἀνθρώπους, καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν τοῦ βασιλέως τὴν ὑπόγαιον, καὶ ἔλαβεν ἐκεῖθεν παλαιὰ ῥάκη καὶ παλαιὰ σχοινία, καὶ ἔῤῥιψεν αὐτὰ πρὸς Ἱερεμίαν εἰς τὸν λάκκον, ¹² καὶ εἶπε, ταῦτα θὲς ὑποκάτω τῶν σχοινίων· καὶ ἐποίησεν Ἱερεμίας οὕτως. ¹³ Καὶ εἵλκυσαν αὐτὸν τοῖς σχοινίοις, καὶ ἀνήγαγον αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ λάκκου· καὶ ἐκάθισεν Ἱερεμίας ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ τῆς φυλακῆς.
