@ And the
captain
of the
guard
took
Jeremiah
, and
said
unto him, The
LORD
thy
God
hath
pronounced
this
evil
upon this
place
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:40:3
@ Now the
LORD
hath
brought
it, and
done
according as he hath
said
: because ye have
sinned
against the
LORD
, and have not
obeyed
his
voice
, therefore this
thing
is come upon you.
strkjv@Jeremiah:40:4
@ And now, behold, I
loose
thee this
day
from the
chains
which were upon thine
hand
. If it seem
good
unto thee to
come
with me into
Babylon
,
come
; and I will look
well
unto thee: but if it seem
ill
unto thee to
come
with me into
Babylon
,
forbear
:
behold
, all the
land
is
before
thee: whither it
seemeth
good
and
convenient
for thee to
go
, thither
go
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:40:5
@ Now while he was not yet gone
back
, he said, Go
back
also to
Gedaliah
the
son
of
Ahikam
the
son
of
Shaphan
, whom the
king
of
Babylon
hath made
governor
over the
cities
of
Judah
, and
dwell
with him
among
the
people
: or
go
wheresoever it seemeth
convenient
unto thee to
go
. So the
captain
of the
guard
gave
him
victuals
and a
reward
, and let him
go
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:40:6
@ Then
went
Jeremiah
unto
Gedaliah
the
son
of
Ahikam
to
Mizpah
; and
dwelt
with him
among
the
people
that were
left
in the
land
.
