14

Then saidh559h8799 Jeremiahh3414, It is falseh8267; I fall not awayh5307h8802 to the Chaldeansh3778. But he hearkenedh8085h8804 not to him: so Irijahh3376 tookh8610h8799 Jeremiahh3414, and broughth935h8686 him to the princesh8269. false: Heb. falsehood, or, a lie

Then Zedekiahh6667 the kingh4428 senth7971h8799, and took him outh3947h8799: and the kingh4428 askedh7592h8799 him secretlyh5643 in his househ1004, and saidh559h8799, Is there any wordh1697 from the LORDh3068? And Jeremiahh3414 saidh559h8799, There ish3426: for, saidh559h8799 he, thou shalt be deliveredh5414h8735 into the handh3027 of the kingh4428 of Babylonh894.

18

Moreover Jeremiahh3414 saidh559h8799 unto kingh4428 Zedekiahh6667, What have I offendedh2398h8804 against thee, or against thy servantsh5650, or against this peopleh5971, that ye have puth5414h8804 me in prisonh1004h3608?
