| 1 | Zedekiah the son of Josiah reigned as king, instead of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim, whom Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon made king in the land of Judah. | 2Ki 24:17 1Ch 3:15 2Ch 36:10 |
| 2 | But neither he, nor his servants, nor the people of the land, did listen to the words of Yahweh, which he spoke by the prophet Jeremiah. | 2Ki 24:19 2Ki 24:20 2Ch 36:12-16 Pr 29:12 Ezk 21:25 1Th 4:8 |
| 3 | Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, Pray now to Yahweh our God for us. | Jer 21:1 Jer 21:2 Jer 29:21 Jer 29:25 Jer 52:24 |
| 4 | Now Jeremiah came in and went out among the people; for they had not put him into prison. | Jer 37:15 Jer 32:2 Jer 32:3 |
| 5 | Pharaoh`s army was come forth out of Egypt; and when the Chaldeans who were besieging Jerusalem heard news of them, they broke up from Jerusalem. | Jer 37:7 2Ki 24:7 Ezk 17:15 |
| 6 | Then came the word of Yahweh to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, |
| 7 | Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, Thus shall you tell the king of Judah, who sent you to me to inquire of me: Behold, Pharaoh`s army, which is come forth to help you, shall return to Egypt into their own land. | Jer 37:3 Jer 21:2 2Ki 22:18 |
| 8 | The Chaldeans shall come again, and fight against this city; and they shall take it, and burn it with fire. | Jer 32:29 Jer 34:21 Jer 34:22 Jer 38:23 Jer 39:2-8 |
| 9 | Thus says Yahweh, Don`t deceive yourselves, saying, The Chaldeans shall surely depart from us; for they shall not depart. | Ob 1:3 Mt 24:4 Mt 24:5 Ga 6:3 Ga 6:7 Eph 5:6 2Th 2:3 Jm 1:22 |
| 10 | For though you had struck the whole army of the Chaldeans who fight against you, and there remained but wounded men among them, yes would they rise up every man in his tent, and burn this city with fire. | Jer 21:4-7 Jer 49:20 Jer 50:45 Lv 26:36-38 Isa 10:4 Isa 30:17 |
| 11 | It happened that, when the army of the Chaldeans was broken up from Jerusalem for fear of Pharaoh`s army, |
| 12 | then Jeremiah went forth out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin, to receive his portion there, in the midst of the people. | 1Ki 19:3 1Ki 19:9 Ne 6:11 Mt 10:23 1Th 5:22 |
| 13 | When he was in the gate of Benjamin, a captain of the guard was there, whose name was Irijah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah; and he laid hold on Jeremiah the prophet, saying, You are falling away to the Chaldeans. | Jer 38:7 Zc 14:10 |
| 14 | Then said Jeremiah, It is false; I am not falling away to the Chaldeans. But he didn`t listen to him; so Irijah laid hold on Jeremiah, and brought him to the princes. | Jer 40:4-6 Ne 6:8 Ps 27:12 Ps 35:11 Ps 52:1 Ps 52:2 Mt 5:11 Mt 5:12 Lk 6:22 Lk 6:23 Lk 6:26 1Pe 3:16 1Pe 4:14-16 |
| 15 | The princes were angry with Jeremiah, and struck him, and put him in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe; for they had made that the prison. | Jer 20:1-3 Jer 26:16 Mt 21:35 Mt 23:34 Mt 26:67 Mt 26:68 Lk 20:10 Lk 20:11 Lk 22:64 Jn 18:22 Ac 5:28 Ac 5:40 Ac 16:22-24 Ac 23:2 Ac 23:3 2Co 11:23-27 Heb 11:36-38 |
| 16 | When Jeremiah was come into the dungeon-house, and into the cells, and Jeremiah had remained there many days; | Jer 38:6 Jer 38:10-13 Gn 40:15 Lam 3:53 Lam 3:55 |
| 17 | Then Zedekiah the king sent, and fetched him: and the king asked him secretly in his house, and said, Is there any word from Yahweh? Jeremiah said, There is. He said also, You shall be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon. | Jer 38:5 Jer 38:14-16 Jer 38:24-27 1Ki 14:1-4 |
| 18 | Moreover Jeremiah said to king Zedekiah, Wherein have I sinned against you, or against your servants, or against this people, that you have put me in prison? | Jer 26:19 Gn 31:36 1Sa 24:9-15 1Sa 26:18-21 Pr 17:13 Pr 17:26 Dn 6:22 Jn 10:32 Ac 23:1 Ac 24:16 Ac 25:8 Ac 25:11 Ac 25:25 Ac 26:31 Ga 4:16 |
| 19 | Where now are your prophets who prophesied to you, saying, The king of Babylon shall not come against you, nor against this land? | Jer 2:28 Dt 32:36 Dt 32:37 2Ki 3:13 |
| 20 | Now please hear, my lord the king: please let my supplication be presented before you, that you not cause me to return to the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there. | Jer 36:7 |
| 21 | Then Zedekiah the king commanded, and they committed Jeremiah into the court of the guard; and they gave him daily a loaf of bread out of the bakers` street, until all the bread in the city was spent. Thus Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard. | Jer 32:2 Jer 32:8 Jer 38:13 Jer 38:28 |
