1 Nebuchadnezzarking of Babylonmade Zedekiahson of Josiahthe king of Judah, and he reigned in place of Coniah37:1 Coniah is a variant of Jehoiachin.son of Jehoiakim. 2 But he and his officers and the people of the land refused to obey the words that the LORD had spoken through Jeremiahthe prophet.
3 Yet King Zedekiahsent Jehucal37:3 Jehucal is a variant of Jucal; see Jeremiah 38:1.son of Shelemiahand Zephaniahthe priest, the son of Maaseiah, to Jeremiahthe prophet with the message, "Please pray to the LORD our God for us!"
4 Now Jeremiahwas free to come and go among the people, for they had not yet put him in prison. 5 Pharaoh’s army had left Egypt, and when the Chaldeans37:5 That is, the Babylonians; also in verses 8, 9, 13, and 14who were besieging Jerusalemheard the report, they withdrew from Jerusalem.
6 Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiahthe prophet: 7 "This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says that you are to tell the king of Judah, who sent you to Me: Behold, Pharaoh’s army, which has marched out to help you, will go back to its own land of Egypt. 8 Then the Chaldeanswill return and fight against this city. They will capture it and burn it down.
9 This is what the LORD says: Do not deceive yourselves by saying, ‘The Chaldeanswill go away for good,’ for they will not! 10 Indeed, if you were to strike down the entire army of the Chaldeansthat is fighting against you, and only wounded men remained in their tents, they would still get up and burn this city down."
Jeremiah Imprisoned
11 When the Chaldean army withdrew from Jerusalemfor fear of Pharaoh’s army, 12 Jeremiahstarted to leave Jerusalemto go to the land of Benjamin to claim his portion there37:12 Literally to divide from thereamong the people. 13 But when he reached the Gate of Benjamin, the captain of the guard, whose name was Irijahson of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah, seized him and said, "You are deserting to the Chaldeans!"
14 "That is a lie," Jeremiahreplied. "I am not deserting to the Chaldeans!"
But Irijahwould not listen to him; instead, he arrested Jeremiahand took him to the officials.
15 The officials were angry with Jeremiah, and they beat him and placed him in jail in the house of Jonathanthe scribe, for it had been made into a prison.
16 So Jeremiahwent into a cell in the dungeon and remained there a long time.
17 Later, King Zedekiahsent for Jeremiahand received him in his palace, where he asked him privately, "Is there a word from the LORD?"
"There is," Jeremiahreplied. "You will be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon."
18 Then Jeremiahasked King Zedekiah, "How have I sinned against you or your servants or these people, that you have put me in prison? 19 Where are your prophets who prophesied to you, claiming, ‘The king of Babylonwill not come against you or this land’ ? 20 But now please listen, O my lord the king. May my petition come before you. Do not send me back to the house of Jonathanthe scribe, or I will die there."
21 So King Zedekiahgave orders for Jeremiahto be placed in the courtyard of the guard and given a loaf of bread daily from the street of the bakers, until all the bread in the city was gone. So Jeremiahremained in the courtyard of the guard.
