Jeremiah 36:13-14
Context36:13 Micaiah told them everything he had heard Baruch read from the scroll in the hearing of the people. 2 36:14 All the officials sent Jehudi, who was the son of Nethaniah and the grandson of Cushi, to Baruch. They ordered him to tell Baruch, “Come here and bring with you 3 the scroll you read in the hearing of the people.” 4 So Baruch son of Neriah went to them, carrying the scroll in his hand. 5
1 tn Heb “Micaiah son of Gemariah son of Shaphan heard all the words of the
2 tn Heb “Micaiah reported to them all the words which he heard when Baruch read from the scroll in the ears of the people.”
3 tn Heb “in your hand.”
4 tn The original has another example of a prepositioned object (called casus pendens in the grammars; cf. GKC 458 §143.b) which is intended to focus attention on “the scroll.” The Hebrew sentence reads: “The scroll which you read from it in the ears of the people take it and come.” Any attempt to carry over this emphasis into the English translation would be awkward. Likewise, the order of the two imperatives has been reversed as more natural in English.
5 tn Heb “So Baruch son of Neriah took the scroll in his hand and went to them.” The clause order has been rearranged in the translation for stylistic reasons.
