Jeremiah 37:17-19

Christian Standard Bible

Jeremiah Summoned by Zedekiah

¹⁷ King Zedekiah later sent for him and received him, and in his house privately asked him, “Is there a word from the Lord?” ^(A)

“There is,” Jeremiah responded. He continued, “You will be handed over to the king of Babylon.”^{(B) 18} Then Jeremiah said to King Zedekiah, “How have I sinned against you or your servants or these people that you have put me in prison? ¹⁹ Where are your prophets who prophesied to you, claiming, ‘The king of Babylon will not come against you and this land’?^(C)
