Jeremiah 38:1-13

Then Shephatiah
<08203>

the son
<01121>

of Mattan
<04977>_,

and Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Pashur
<06583>_,

and Jucal
<03116>

the son
<01121>

of Shelemiah
<08018>_,

and Pashur
<06583>

the son
<01121>

of Malchiah
<04441>_,

heard
<08085> (8799)

the words
<01697>

that Jeremiah
<03414>

had spoken
<01696> (8764)

unto all the people
<05971>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

He that remaineth
<03427> (8802)

in this city
<05892>

shall die
<04191> (8799)

by the sword
<02719>_,

by the famine
<07458>_,

and by the pestilence
<01698>_:

but he that goeth forth
<03318> (8802)

to the Chaldeans
<03778>

shall live
<02421> (8804)_;

for he shall have his life
<05315>

for a prey
<07998>_,

and shall live
<02421> (8799) (8675) <02425> (8804)_.

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

This city
<05892>

shall surely
<05414> (8736)

be given
<05414> (8735)

into the hand
<03027>

of the king
<04428>

of Babylon's
<0894>

army
<02428>_,

which shall take
<03920> (8804)

it.

Therefore the princes
<08269>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto the king
<04428>_,

We beseech thee, let this man
<0376>

be put to death
<04191> (8714)_:

for thus
<03651>

he weakeneth
<07503> (8764)

the hands
<03027>

of the men
<0582>

of war
<04421>

that remain
<07604> (8737)

in this city
<05892>_,

and the hands
<03027>

of all the people
<05971>_,

in speaking
<01696> (8763)

such words
<01697>

unto them: for this man
<0376>

seeketh
<01875> (8802)

not the welfare
<07965>

of this people
<05971>_,

but the hurt
<07451>_.

{welfare: Heb. peace}

Then Zedekiah
<06667>

the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, he [is] in your hand
<03027>_:

for the king
<04428>

[is] not [he that] can
<03201> (8799)

do [any] thing
<01697>

against you.

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.

So they drew up
<04900> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>

with cords
<02256>_,

and took him up
<05927> (8686)

out of the dungeon
<0953>_:

and Jeremiah
<03414>

remained
<03427> (8799)

in the court
<02691>

of the prison
<04307>_.
