Jeremiah 37:13-15

« Jer 36Jer 37Jer 38 »

13 Now it happened that while he was at the ^aGate of Benjamin, the master of the guard whose name was Irijah the son of Shelemiah the son of Hananiah was there; and he ^bseized Jeremiah the prophet, saying, “You are ¹going over to the Chaldeans!” 14 But Jeremiah said, “^aA lie! I am not ¹going over to the Chaldeans”; yet he would not listen to him. So Irijah seized Jeremiah and brought him to the officials. 15 Then the officials were ^aangry at Jeremiah and struck him, and they ^bput him in jail in the house of Jonathan the scribe because they had made that house into the prison.
