Jeremiah 38:7-9

Wycliffe Bible

⁷ Forsooth Ebedmelech (the) Ethiopian, a chaste man and honest, heard, that was in the king’s house, that they had sent Jeremy into the pit; soothly the king (then) sat in the gate of Benjamin. (But Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, an honest and chaste servant, that is, a eunuch, who was in the king’s house, or the palace, heard that they had sent Jeremiah into the pit; and the king then sat at the Benjamin Gate.)

⁸ And Ebedmelech went out of the king’s house, and spake to the king, and said, (And Ebedmelech went forth from the palace, and spoke to the king, and said,)

⁹ My lord the king, these men did evil all things, whatever things they did against Jeremy, the prophet, sending him into the pit, that he die there for hunger; for why loaves be no more in the city. (My lord the king, these men have done a very evil thing, yea, what they have done against the prophet Jeremiah, by sending him into the pit, so that he would die there of hunger; for there be no more loaves in the city.)
