Jeremiah 37:3-5

The Voice

³ Zedekiah one day sent Jehucal (son of Shelemiah), along with the priest Zephaniah (son of Maaseiah) to ask the prophet Jeremiah, “Please pray to the Eternal our God for us.” ⁴ Now Jeremiah had not yet been put in prison, so he was free to move about the city. ⁵ This happened when the Chaldeans pulled back from their siege on Jerusalem because they heard Pharaoh’s army was marching out of Egypt toward them.
