Jeremiah 38:6-12

Then took
<03947> (8799)
they Jeremiah
<03414>_,
and cast
<07993> (8686)
him into the dungeon
<0953>
of Malchiah
<04441>
the son
<01121>
of Hammelech
<04428>_,
that [was] in the court
<02691>
of the prison
<04307>_:
and they let down
<07971> (8762)
Jeremiah
<03414>
with cords
<02256>_.
And in the dungeon
<0953>
[there was] no water
<04325>_,
but mire
<02916>_:
so Jeremiah
<03414>
sunk
<02883> (8799)
in the mire
<02916>_.
{of Hammelech: or, of the king}
Now when Ebedmelech
<05663>
the Ethiopian
<03569>_,
one
<0376>
of the eunuchs
<05631>
which was in the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>_,
heard
<08085> (8799)
that they had put
<05414> (8804)
Jeremiah
<03414>
in the dungeon
<0953>_;
the king
<04428>
then sitting
<03427> (8802)
in the gate
<08179>
of Benjamin
<01144>_;
Ebedmelech
<05663>
went forth
<03318> (8799)
out of the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>_,
and spake
<01696> (8762)
to the king
<04428>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
My lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_,
these men
<0582>
have done evil
<07489> (8689)
in all that they have done
<06213> (8804)
to Jeremiah
<03414>
the prophet
<05030>_,
whom they have cast
<07993> (8689)
into the dungeon
<0953>_;
and he is like to die
<04191> (8799)
for
<06440>
hunger
<07458>
in the place
<08478>
where he is: for [there is] no more bread
<03899>
in the city
<05892>_.
{he is like...: Heb. he will die}
Then the king
<04428>
commanded
<06680> (8762)
Ebedmelech
<05663>
the Ethiopian
<03569>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Take
<03947> (8798)
from hence thirty
<07970>
men
<0582>
with thee
<03027>_,
and take up
<05927> (8689)
Jeremiah
<03414>
the prophet
<05030>
out of the dungeon
<0953>_,
before he die
<04191> (8799)_.
{with thee: Heb. in thine hand}
So Ebedmelech
<05663>
took
<03947> (8799)
the men
<0582>
with him
<03027>_,
and went
<0935> (8799)
into the house
<01004>
of the king
<04428>
under the treasury
<0214>_,
and took
<03947> (8799)
thence old
<01094>
cast clouts
<05499>
and old
<01094>
rotten rags
<04418>_,
and let them down
<07971> (8762)
by cords
<02256>
into the dungeon
<0953>
to Jeremiah
<03414>_.
And Ebedmelech
<05663>
the Ethiopian
<03569>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,
Put
<07760> (8798)
now [these] old
<01094>
cast clouts
<05499>
and rotten rags
<04418>
under thine armholes
<0679> <03027>
under the cords
<02256>_.
And Jeremiah
<03414>
did
<06213> (8799)
so.
