Jeremiah 26:17-19

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁷ Then some of the elders of the land rose up and spoke to all the assembly of the people, saying,

¹⁸ “Micah the Morashite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah, king of Judah, and spoke to all the people of Judah, saying, “Thus says the LORD of Hosts: ‘Zion shall be plowed like a field, and Jerusalem shall be a heap, and the mountain of the House shall be as the high places of the forest.’

¹⁹ “Did Hezekiah, king of Judah, and all Judah, put him to death? Did he not fear the LORD and pray before the LORD? And did not the LORD relent from the plague that he had pronounced against them? But we procure great evil against our souls.”
