14 And Jeremiah said, “That is a lie! I am not deserting to the Chaldeans.” But he would not listen to him. So Irijah seized Jeremiah and brought him to the officials. 15 And the officials were angry at Jeremiah and they struck him. And they put him in prison,[a] in the house of Jonathan the secretary, for they had converted it to the prison[b]. 16 So Jeremiah came to the dungeon[c], even to the vaulted cells, and Jeremiah stayed there many days.
