Jeremiah:39:11-18
rsv@Jeremiah:39:11 @ Nebuchadrez'zar king of Babylon gave command concerning Jeremiah through Nebu'zarad'an, the captain of the guard, saying,
rsv@Jeremiah:39:12 @ "Take him, look after him well and do him no harm, but deal with him as he tells you."
rsv@Jeremiah:39:13 @ So Nebu'zarad'an the captain of the guard, Nebushaz'ban the Rab'saris, Ner'gal-share'zer the Rabmag, and all the chief officers of the king of Babylon
rsv@Jeremiah:39:14 @ sent and took Jeremiah from the court of the guard. They entrusted him to Gedali'ah the son of Ahi'kam, son of Shaphan, that he should take him home. So he dwelt among the people.
rsv@Jeremiah:39:15 @ The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah while he was shut up in the court of the guard:
rsv@Jeremiah:39:16 @ "Go, and say to E'bed-mel'ech the Ethiopian, `Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will fulfil my words against this city for evil and not for good, and they shall be accomplished before you on that day.
rsv@Jeremiah:39:17 @ But I will deliver you on that day, says the LORD, and you shall not be given into the hand of the men of whom you are afraid.
rsv@Jeremiah:39:18 @ For I will surely save you, and you shall not fall by the sword; but you shall have your life as a prize of war, because you have put your trust in me, says the LORD.'"
