Jeremiah 38:13-15

Living Bible

¹³ they pulled him out and returned him to the palace prison, where he remained.

¹⁴ One day King Zedekiah sent for Jeremiah to meet him at the side entrance of the Temple.

“I want to ask you something,” the king said, “and don’t try to hide the truth.”

¹⁵ Jeremiah said, “If I tell you the truth, you will kill me. And you won’t listen to me anyway.”
