Jeremiah 36:1 And it came to pass in the fourth7243 year8141 of Jehoiakim3079 the son1121 of Josiah2977 king4428 of Judah,3063that this word1697 came unto Jeremiah3414 from the LORD,3068 saying,5592 Take3947 thee a roll4039 of a book,5612 and write3789 therein all the words1697 that I have spoken1696 unto thee against Israel,3478 and against Judah,3063 and against all the nations,1471 from the day3117 I spake1696 unto thee, from the days3117 of Josiah,2977 even unto this day.31173 It may be that the house1004 of Judah3063 will hear8085 all the evil7451 which I purpose2803 to do6213 unto them; that they may return7725 every man376 from his evil7451 way;1870 that I may forgive5545 their iniquity5771 and their sin.24034 Then Jeremiah3414 called7121 Baruch1263 the son1121 of Neriah:5374 and Baruch1263 wrote3789 from the mouth6310 of Jeremiah3414 all the words1697 of the LORD,3068 which he had spoken1696 unto him, upon a roll4039 of a book.5612
Jeremiah 36:5 And Jeremiah3414 commanded6680 Baruch,1263 saying,559 I am shut up;6113 I cannot3201 go935 into the house1004 of the LORD:30686 Therefore go935 thou, and read7121 in the roll,4039 which thou hast written3789 from my mouth,6310 the words1697 of the LORD3068 in the ears241 of the people5971 in the LORD'S3068 house1004 upon the fasting6685 day:3117 and also thou shalt read7121 them in the ears241 of all Judah3063 that come out935 of their cities.58927 It may be they will present5307 their supplication8467{Heb. their supplication shall fall} before6440 the LORD,3068 and will return7725 every one376 from his evil7451 way:1870 for great1419is the anger639 and the fury2534 that the LORD3068 hath pronounced1696 against this people.59718 And Baruch1263 the son1121 of Neriah5374 did6213 according to all that Jeremiah3414 the prophet5030 commanded6680 him, reading7121 in the book5612 the words1697 of the LORD3068 in the LORD'S3068 house.10049 And it came to pass in the fifth2549 year8141 of Jehoiakim3079 the son1121 of Josiah2977 king4428 of Judah,3063 in the ninth8671 month,2320that they proclaimed7121 a fast6685 before6440 the LORD3068 to all the people5971 in Jerusalem,3389 and to all the people5971 that came935 from the cities5892 of Judah3063 unto Jerusalem.338910 Then read7121 Baruch1263 in the book5612 the words1697 of Jeremiah3414 in the house1004 of the LORD,3068 in the chamber3957 of Gemariah1587 the son1121 of Shaphan8227 the scribe,5608 in the higher5945 court,2691 at the entry6607{Or, door} of the new2319 gate8179 of the LORD'S3068 house,1004 in the ears241 of all the people.5971
Jeremiah 36:11 When Michaiah4321 the son1121 of Gemariah,1587 the son1121 of Shaphan,8227 had heard8085 out of the book5612 all the words1697 of the LORD,306812 Then he went down3381 into the king's4428 house,1004 into the scribe's5608 chamber:3957 and, lo, all the princes8269 sat3427 there, even Elishama476 the scribe,5608 and Delaiah1806 the son1121 of Shemaiah,8098 and Elnathan494 the son1121 of Achbor,5907 and Gemariah1587 the son1121 of Shaphan,8227 and Zedekiah6667 the son1121 of Hananiah,2608 and all the princes.826913 Then Michaiah4321 declared5046 unto them all the words1697 that he had heard,8085 when Baruch1263 read7121 the book5612 in the ears241 of the people.597114 Therefore all the princes8269 sent7971 Jehudi3065 the son1121 of Nethaniah,5418 the son1121 of Shelemiah,8018 the son1121 of Cushi,3570 unto Baruch,1263 saying,559 Take3947 in thine hand3027 the roll4039 wherein thou hast read7121 in the ears241 of the people,5971 and come.3212 So Baruch1263 the son1121 of Neriah5374 took3947 the roll4039 in his hand,3027 and came935 unto them.
15 And they said559 unto him, Sit down3427 now, and read7121 it in our ears.241 So Baruch1263 read7121it in their ears.24116 Now it came to pass, when they had heard8085 all the words,1697 they were afraid6342 both413 one376 and other,7453 and said559 unto Baruch,1263 We will surely5046 tell5046 the king4428 of all these words.169717 And they asked7592 Baruch,1263 saying,559 Tell5046 us now, How didst thou write3789 all these words1697 at his mouth?631018 Then Baruch1263 answered559 them, He pronounced7121 all these words1697 unto me with his mouth,6310 and I wrote3789them with ink1773 in the book.561219 Then said559 the princes8269 unto Baruch,1263 Go,3212 hide5641 thee, thou and Jeremiah;3414 and let no man376 know3045 where375 ye be.
Jeremiah 36:20 And they went in935 to the king4428 into the court,2691 but they laid up6485 the roll4039 in the chamber3957 of Elishama476 the scribe,5608 and told5046 all the words1697 in the ears241 of the king.442821 So the king4428 sent7971 Jehudi3065 to fetch3947 the roll:4039 and he took3947 it out of Elishama476 the scribe's5608 chamber.3957 And Jehudi3065 read7121 it in the ears241 of the king,4428 and in the ears241 of all the princes8269 which stood5975 beside5921 the king.442822 Now the king4428 sat3427 in the winterhouse10042779 in the ninth8671 month:2320 and therewasafire on the hearth254 burning1197 before6440 him.
23 And it came to pass, that when Jehudi3065 had read7121 three7969 or four702 leaves,1817 he cut7167 it with the penknife,85935608 and cast7993it into the fire784 that was on the hearth,254 until all the roll4039 was consumed8552 in the fire784 that was on the hearth.25424 Yet they were not afraid,6342 nor rent7167 their garments,899neither the king,4428 nor any of his servants5650 that heard8085 all these words.169725 Nevertheless Elnathan494 and Delaiah1806 and Gemariah1587 had made intercession6293 to the king4428 that he would not burn8313 the roll:4039 but he would not hear8085 them.
26 But the king4428 commanded6680 Jerahmeel3396 the son1121 of Hammelech,4429{Or, of the king} and Seraiah8304 the son1121 of Azriel,5837 and Shelemiah8018 the son1121 of Abdeel,5655 to take3947 Baruch1263 the scribe5608 and Jeremiah3414 the prophet:5030 but the LORD3068 hid5641 them.
Jeremiah 36:27 Then the word1697 of the LORD3068 came to Jeremiah,3414 after310 that the king4428 had burned8313 the roll,4039 and the words1697 which Baruch1263 wrote3789 at the mouth6310 of Jeremiah,3414 saying,55928 Take3947 thee again7725 another312 roll,4039 and write3789 in it all the former7223 words1697 that were in the first7223 roll,4039 which Jehoiakim3079 the king4428 of Judah3063 hath burned.831329 And thou shalt say559 to Jehoiakim3079 king4428 of Judah,3063 Thus saith559 the LORD;3068 Thou hast burned8313 this roll,4039 saying,559 Why hast thou written3789 therein, saying,559 The king4428 of Babylon894 shall certainly935 come935 and destroy7843 this land,776 and shall cause to cease7673 from thence man120 and beast?92930 Therefore thus saith559 the LORD3068 of Jehoiakim3079 king4428 of Judah;3063 He shall have none to sit3427 upon the throne3678 of David:1732 and his dead body5038 shall be cast out7993 in the day3117 to the heat,2721 and in the night3915 to the frost.714031 And I will punish6485{Heb. visit upon} him and his seed2233 and his servants5650 for their iniquity;5771 and I will bring935 upon them, and upon the inhabitants3427 of Jerusalem,3389 and upon the men376 of Judah,3063 all the evil7451 that I have pronounced1696 against them; but they hearkened8085 not.
Jeremiah 36:32 Then took3947 Jeremiah3414 another312 roll,4039 and gave5414 it to Baruch1263 the scribe,5608 the son1121 of Neriah;5374 who wrote3789 therein from the mouth6310 of Jeremiah3414 all the words1697 of the book5612 which Jehoiakim3079 king4428 of Judah3063 had burned8313 in the fire:784 and there were added3254 besides unto them many7227 like1992{Heb. as they} words.1697
