Chap. XXXVII.
note
Sedecias appointed by the king of Babylon to reigne in Iuda, requesteth
Ieremias prayers. 4. The Chaldees besieging Ierusalem, and hearing
that the Ægyptians come against them, part away. 5. But Ieremie prophecieth
that they wil returne, and burne Ierusalem. 10. For which he
is imprisoned. 16. After manie dayes the king examineth him of his prophecie,
who stil affirming the same, 20. is kept in the entrie of the prison.
1 And king Sedecias the sonne of Iosias reigned for
Iechonias the sonne of Ioakim: whom Nabuchodonosor
the king of Babylon made king in the Land of Iuda.
2 And he obeyed not, he and his seruants, and the people of
the land the wordes of our Lord, that he spake in the hand
of Ieremie the prophet.
3 And king Sedecias sent Iuchal the
sonne of Selemias, and Sophonias the sonne of Maasias priest
to Ieremie the prophet, saying: note Pray the Lord our God for
vs.
4 And Ieremie walked freely in the middes of the people:
for they had not cast him into ward in prison. Therefore the
armie of Pharao came out of Ægypt: and the Chaldees that
besieged Ierusalem, hearing such tydinges, retyred from Ierusalem.
5 And the word of our Lord was made to Ieremie the
prophet, saying:
6 Thus saith our Lord the God of Israel:
Thus shal you say to the king of Iuda, which sent you to
demand of me: Behold the armie of Pharao, which is come
forth to helpe you, shal returne into his land into Ægypt.
7 And the Chaldees shal returne, and make warre against
this citie, and take it, and burne it with fire.
8 Thus saith our
Lord: Deceiue not your soules, saying: The Chaldees going
shal goe away, and retyre from vs, because they shal not goe
away.
9 But if you shal strike al the host of the Chaldees, that
fight against you, and there be left of them some wounded:
euerie one shal rise vp out of his tent, and shal burne this
-- --
citie with fire.
10 Therefore when the armie of the Chaldees
was retyred from Ierusalem, because of Pharaos armie.
11 Ieremie went out of Ierusalem to goe into the land of
Beniamin, and to diuide possession there in the sight of the
citizens.
12 And when he was come to the gate of Beniamin,
there was there the keeper of the gate by course, one named
Ierias, the sonne of Selemias, the sonne of Hananias: and he
apprehended Ieremie the prophet, saying: note Thou fleest to
the Chaldees.
13 And Ieremie answered: It is not so, I flee not
to the Chaldees. And he heard him not: but tooke Ieremie,
and brought him to the princes.
14 For which thing the princes
being angrie against Ieremie, they beate him, and cast him
into the prison that was in the house of Ionathan the scribe:
for he was chiefe ouer the prison.
15 Ieremie therefore went
into the house of the lake, and into the dungeon: and Ieremie
sate there manie daies.
16 But Sedecias the king sending
tooke him: and demanded of him in his house secretly, and
said: Thinkest thou the word is from our Lord? And Ieremie
said: It is. And he said: Thou shalt be deliuered into the handes
of the king of Babylon.
17 And Ieremie said to king Sedecias,
what haue I sinned against thee, and thy seruants, and
thy people, that thou hast cast me into the prison house?
18 Where are your prophetes that did prophecie to you, and
said: The king of Babylon shal not come vpon you and vpon
this land?
19 Now therefore heare I beseech thee my Lord
king: let my petition be auailable in thy sight: and send me
not back into the house of Ionathan the scribe, lest I dye
there.
20 King Sedecias therefore commanded that Ieremie
should be committed in the entrie of the prison: and there
should be geuen him a peece of bread euerie day, beside
brothe, til al the bread were spent out of the citie: and Ieremie
remayned in the entrie of the prison.
