H6667
Then Zedekiah
H4428
the king
H7971 [H8799]
sent,
H3947 [H8799]
and took
H3414
Jeremiah
H5030
the prophet
H7992
to him into the third
H3996
entrance
H1004
that is in the house
H3068
of the LORD:
H4428
and the king
H559 [H8799]
said
H3414
to Jeremiah,
H7592 [H8802]
I will ask
H1697
thee a thing;
H3582 [H8762]
hide nothing from me.
15
H3414
Then Jeremiah
H559 [H8799]
said
H6667
to Zedekiah,
H5046 [H8686]
If I declare
H4191 [H8687]
it to thee, wilt thou not surely
H4191 [H8686]
put me to death?
H3289 [H8799]
and if I give thee counsel,
H8085 [H8799]
wilt thou not hearken to me?
16
H6667
So Zedekiah
H4428
the king
H7650 [H8735]
swore
H5643
secretly
H3414
to Jeremiah,
H559 [H8800]
saying,
H3068
As the LORD
H2416
liveth,
H6213 [H8804]
that made
H5315
us this breath,
H4191 [H8686]
I will not put thee to death,
H5414 [H8799]
neither will I give
H3027
thee into the hand
H582
of these men
H1245 [H8764]
that seek
H5315
thy life.
17
H559 [H8799]
Then said
H3414
Jeremiah
H6667
to Zedekiah,
H559 [H8804]
Thus saith
H3068
the LORD,
H430
the God
H6635
of hosts,
H430
the God
H3478
of Israel;
H3318 [H8800]
If thou wilt assuredly
H3318 [H8799]
go forth
H4428
to the king
H894
of Babylon's
H8269
princes,
H5315
then thy breath
H2421 [H8804]
shall live,
H5892
and this city
H8313 [H8735]
shall not be burned
H784
with fire;
H2421 [H8804]
and thou shalt live,
H1004
and thy house:
18
H3318 [H8799]
But if thou wilt not go forth
H4428
to the king
H894
of Babylon's
H8269
princes,
H5892
then shall this city
H5414 [H8738]
be given
H3027
into the hand
H3778
of the Chaldeans,
H8313 [H8804]
and they shall burn
H784
it with fire,
H4422 [H8735]
and thou shalt not escape from
H3027
their hand.
19
H6667
And Zedekiah
H4428
the king
H559 [H8799]
said
H3414
to Jeremiah,
H1672 [H8802]
I am anxious
H3064
of the Judeans
H5307 [H8804]
that have fallen
H3778
to the Chaldeans,
H5414 [H8799]
lest they give
H3027
me into their hand,
H5953 [H8694]
and they mock me.
20
H3414
But Jeremiah
H559 [H8799]
said,
H5414 [H8799]
They shall not give
H8085 [H8798]
thee. Obey,
H6963
I beseech thee, the voice
H3068
of the LORD,
H1696 [H8802]
which I speak
H3190 [H8799]
to thee: so it shall be well
H5315
to thee, and thy breath
H2421 [H8799]
shall live.
21
H3986
But if thou shalt refuse
H3318 [H8800]
to go forth,
H1697
this is the word
H3068
that the LORD
H7200 [H8689]
hath shown me:
22
H802
And, behold, all the women
H7604 [H8738]
that are left
H4428
in the king
H3063
of Judah's
H1004
house
H3318 [H8716]
shall be brought forth
H4428
to the king
H894
of Babylon's
H8269
princes,
H559 [H8802]
and those women shall say,
H582 H7965
Thy friends
H5496 [H8689]
have set thee on,
H3201 [H8804]
and have prevailed
H7272
against thee: thy feet
H2883 [H8717]
are sunk
H1206
in the mire,
H5472 [H8738]
and they are turned away
H268
back.
23
H3318 [H8688]
So they shall bring out
H802
all thy wives
H1121
and thy sons
H3778
to the Chaldeans:
H4422 [H8735]
and thou shalt not escape out
H3027
of their hand,
H8610 [H8735]
but shalt be taken
H3027
by the hand
H4428
of the king
H894
of Babylon:
H5892
and thou shalt cause this city
H8313 [H8799]
to be burned
H784
with fire.
24
H559 [H8799]
Then said
H6667
Zedekiah
H3414
to Jeremiah,
H376
Let no man
H3045 [H8799]
know
H1697
of these words,
H4191 [H8799]
and thou shalt not die.
25
H8269
But if the princes
H8085 [H8799]
hear
H1696 [H8765]
that I have talked
H935 [H8804]
with thee, and they come
H559 [H8804]
to thee, and say
H5046 [H8685]
to thee, Declare
H1696 [H8765]
to us now what thou hast said
H4428
to the king,
H3582 [H8762]
hide
H4191 [H8686]
it not from us, and we will not put thee to death;
H4428
also what the king
H1696 [H8765]
said to thee:
26
H559 [H8804]
Then thou shalt say
H5307 [H8688]
to them, I presented
H8467
my supplication
H6440
at the face of
H4428
the king,
H7725 [H8687]
that he would not cause me to return
H3083
to Jonathan's
H1004
house,
H4191 [H8800]
to die there.
27
H935 [H8799]
Then came
H8269
all the princes
H3414
to Jeremiah,
H7592 [H8799]
and asked
H5046 [H8686]
him: and he told
H1697
them according to all these words
H4428
that the king
H6680 [H8765]
had commanded.
H2790 [H8686]
So they stopped speaking
H1697
with him; for the matter
H8085 [H8738]
was not perceived.
