Jeremiah 38:25-27
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
25 But if the princes hear that I have talked with you, and they come to you and say, Tell us what you said to the king and what he said to you; hide it not from us and we will not put you to death,
26 Then you shall say to them, I was presenting to the king my humble plea that he would not send me back to Jonathan’s house to die there.
27 Then came all the princes to Jeremiah and asked him [just what King Zedekiah had anticipated they would ask], and he told them all that the king had commanded. So they left off speaking with him, for what the conversation [with the king] had been was not discovered.

Jeremiah 38:25-27
New International Version
25 If the officials hear that I talked with you, and they come to you and say, ‘Tell us what you said to the king and what the king said to you; do not hide it from us or we will kill you,’ 26 then tell(A) them, ‘I was pleading with the king not to send me back to Jonathan’s house(B) to die there.’”
27 All the officials did come to Jeremiah and question him, and he told them everything the king had ordered him to say. So they said no more to him, for no one had heard his conversation with the king.
