Jeremiah 36:2-4

Contemporary English Version

² since the time Josiah was king, I have been speaking to you about Israel, Judah, and the other nations. Now, get a scroll^[a] and write down everything I have told you, ³ then read it to the people of Judah. Maybe they will stop sinning when they hear what terrible things I plan for them. And if they turn back to me, I will forgive them.”

⁴ I sent for Baruch son of Neriah and asked him to help me. I repeated everything the Lord had told me, and Baruch wrote it all down on a scroll.
