Jeremiah 38:1

Jeremiah in the Dungeon

1 Now Shephatiah the son of Mattan, Gedaliah the son of Pashhur, ^aJucal the son of Shelemiah, and ^bPashhur the son of Malchiah ^cheard the words that Jeremiah had spoken to all the people, saying,

2 “Thus says the Lord: ^a‘He who remains in this city shall die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence; but he who goes over to the Chaldeans shall live; his life shall be as a prize to him, and he shall live.’

3 Thus says the Lord: ^a‘This city shall surely be ^bgiven into the hand of the king of Babylon’s army, which shall take it.’ ”
