Jeremiah 46

1 And it came to pass in the ninth month of Sedekias king of Juda,that Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon came, and all his host, against Jerusalem, and they besiegedit. 2 And in the eleventh year of Sedekiass, in the fourth month, on the ninth day of the month,the city was brokenup. 3 And all the leaders of the king of Babylon went in, and sat in the middle gate, Marganasar,and Samagoth, and Nabusachar, and Nabusaris, Nagargas, Naserrabamath, and the rest of the leaders of theking of Babylon, 14 and they sent, and took Jeremias out of the court of the prison, and gave himin charge to Godolias the son of Achicam, the son of Saphan: and they brought him out, andhe sat in the midst of the people. 15 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias in the court of the prison, saying, 16 Go and say to Abdemelech the Ethiopian, Thus said the Lord God of Israel; Behold, Iwill bring my words upon this city for evil, and not for good. 17 But I will save you in that day, and I will by no means deliver you into the hands ofthe men before whom you are afraid. 18 For I will surely save you, and you shall by no means fall by the sword; and you shallfind your life, because you did trust in me, says the Lord.
