Jeremiah 26:1-3

Good News Translation

Jeremiah Is Brought to Trial

26 ^(A)Soon after Jehoiakim son of Josiah became king of Judah, ² the Lord said to me, “Stand in the court of the Temple and proclaim all I have commanded you to say to the people who come from the towns of Judah to worship there. Do not leave out anything. ³ Perhaps the people will listen and give up their evil ways. If they do, then I will change my mind about the destruction I plan to bring on them for all their wicked deeds.”
