rsv Jeremiah:37:17-21
rsv@Jeremiah:37:17 @ King Zedeki'ah sent for him, and received him. The king questioned him secretly in his house, and said, "Is there any word from the LORD?" Jeremiah said, "There is." Then he said, "You shall be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon."
rsv@Jeremiah:37:18 @ Jeremiah also said to King Zedeki'ah, "What wrong have I done to you or your servants or this people, that you have put me in prison?
rsv@Jeremiah:37:19 @ Where are your prophets who prophesied to you, saying, `The king of Babylon will not come against you and against this land'?
rsv@Jeremiah:37:20 @ Now hear, I pray you, O my lord the king: let my humble plea come before you, and do not send me back to the house of Jonathan the secretary, lest I die there."
rsv@Jeremiah:37:21 @ So King Zedeki'ah gave orders, and they committed Jeremiah to the court of the guard; and a loaf of bread was given him daily from the bakers' street, until all the bread of the city was gone. So Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard.
