1
In the fourth
year
of Jehoiakim
the son
of Josiah,
king
of Judah,
this
word
came
to Jeremiah
from the LORD,
saying,
2
"Take
a scroll
and write
on it
all
the words
which
I have spoken
to you concerning
Israel
and concerning
Judah,
and concerning
all
the nations,
from the day
I first spoke
to you,
from the day
s
of Josiah,
even to this
day.
3
"Perhaps
the house
of Judah
will hear
all
the calamity
which
I plan
to bring
on them, in order
that every man
will turn
from his evil
way;
then I will forgive
their iniquity
and their sin."
4
Then Jeremiah
called
Baruch
the son
of Neriah,
and
Baruch
wrote
on a scroll
at the dictation
of Jeremiah
all
the words
of the LORD
which
He had spoken
to him.
5
Jeremiah
commanded
Baruch,
saying,
"I am restricted;
I cannot
go
into the house
of the LORD.
6
"So you go
and read
from the scroll
which
you have written
at my dictation
the words
of the LORD
to the people
in the LORD'S
house
on a fast
day.
And also
you shall read
them to all
the people of Judah
who come
from their cities.
7
"Perhaps
their supplication
will come
before
the LORD,
and everyone
will turn
from his evil
way,
for great
is the anger
and the wrath
that the LORD
has pronounced
against
this
people."
8
Baruch
the son
of Neriah
did
according to all
that Jeremiah
the prophet
commanded
him, reading
from the book
the words
of the LORD
in the LORD'S
house.
9
Now in the fifth
year
of Jehoiakim
the son
of Josiah,
king
of Judah
,
in the ninth
month,
all
the people
in Jerusalem
and
all
the people
who came
from the cities
of Judah
to Jerusalem
proclaimed
a fast
before
the LORD.
10
Then Baruch
read
from the book
the words
of Jeremiah
in the house
of the LORD
in the chamber
of Gemariah
the son
of Shaphan
the scribe,
in the upper
court,
at the entry
of the New
Gate
of the LORD
'S
house,
to all
the people.
11
Now when Micaiah
the son
of Gemariah,
the son
of Shaphan,
had heard
all
the words
of the LORD
from the book,
12
he went down
to the king's
house,
into the scribe's
chamber.
And behold,
all
the officials
were sitting
there--
Elishama
the scribe,
and Delaiah
the son
of Shemaiah,
and Elnathan
the son
of Achbor,
and Gemariah
the son
of Shaphan,
and Zedekiah
the son
of Hananiah,
and
all
the other officials.
13
Micaiah
declared
to them all
the words
that he had heard
when Baruch
read
from the book
to the people.
14
Then all
the officials
sent
Jehudi
the son
of Nethaniah,
the son
of Shelemiah,
the son
of Cushi,
to Baruch,
saying,
"Take
in your hand
the scroll
from which
you have read
to the people
and come."
So Baruch
the son
of Neriah
took
the scroll
in his hand
and went
to them.
15
They said
to him, "Sit down,
please,
and
read
it to us." So Baruch
read
it to them.
16
When they had heard
all
the
words
,
they turned in fear
one
to another
and said
to Baruch,
"We will surely
report
all
these
words
to the king."
17
And they asked
Baruch,
saying,
"Tell
us, please,
how
did you write
all
these
words?
Was it at his dictation?"
18
Then Baruch
said
to them, "He dictated
all
these
words
to me, and I wrote
them with ink
on the book."
19
Then the officials
said
to Baruch,
"Go,
hide
yourself, you and Jeremiah,
and do not let anyone know
where
you are."
20
So they went
to the king
in the court,
but they had deposited
the scroll
in the chamber
of Elishama
the scribe,
and they reported
all
the words
to the king
.
21
Then the king
sent
Jehudi
to get
the scroll,
and he took
it out of the chamber
of Elishama
the scribe.
And
Jehudi
read
it to the king
as well as to all
the officials
who stood
beside
the king.
22
Now the king
was sitting
in the winter
house
in the ninth
month,
with a fire burning
in the brazier
before
him.
23
When Jehudi
had read
three
or four
columns,
the king cut
it with a scribe's
knife
and threw
it into the fire
that was in the brazier,
until
all
the scroll
was consumed
in the fire
that was in the brazier.
24
Yet the king
and
all
his servants
who heard
all
these
words
were not afraid,
nor
did they rend
their garments.
25
Even though
Elnathan
and Delaiah
and Gemariah
pleaded
with the king
not to burn
the scroll,
he would not listen
to them.
26
And the king
commanded
Jerahmeel
the king's
son,
Seraiah
the son
of Azriel,
and Shelemiah
the son
of Abdeel
to seize
Baruch
the scribe
and Jeremiah
the prophet,
but the LORD
hid
them.
27
Then the word
of the LORD
came
to Jeremiah
after
the king
had burned
the scroll
and the words
which
Baruch
had written
at the dictation
of Jeremiah,
saying,
28
"Take
again
another
scroll
and write
on it all
the former
words
that were on the first
scroll
which
Jehoiakim
the king
of Judah
burned.
29
"And concerning
Jehoiakim
king
of Judah
you shall say,
'Thus
says
the LORD,
"You have burned
this
scroll,
saying,
'
Why
have you written
on it that the
king
of Babylon
will certainly
come
and destroy
this
land,
and will make man
and beast
to cease
from it?'"
30
'
Therefore
thus
says
the LORD
concerning
Jehoiakim
king
of Judah,
"He shall have
no
one to sit
on the throne
of David,
and his dead body
shall be cast
out to the heat
of the day
and the frost
of the night.
31
"I will also punish
him and his descendants
and his servants
for their iniquity,
and I will bring
on them and the inhabitants
of Jerusalem
and the men
of Judah
all
the calamity
that I have declared
to them-- but they did not listen."'"
32
Then Jeremiah
took
another
scroll
and gave
it to Baruch
the son
of Neriah,
the scribe,
and he wrote
on it at the dictation
of Jeremiah
all
the words
of the book
which
Jehoiakim
king
of Judah
had burned
in the fire;
and many
similar words
were added
to them.
