Jeremiah 26:20-24

20 Indeed, there was also a man who prophesied in the name of the Lord, Uriah the son of Shemaiah from ^aKiriath-jearim; and he prophesied against this city and against this land words similar to all those of Jeremiah. 21 When King Jehoiakim and all his mighty men and all the officials heard his words, then the ^bking sought to put him to death; but Uriah heard it, and he was afraid and ^cfled and went to Egypt. 22 Then King Jehoiakim sent men to Egypt: ^dElnathan the son of Achbor and certain men with him went into Egypt. 23 And they brought Uriah from Egypt and led him to King Jehoiakim, who ^eslew him with a sword and cast his dead body into the ^{▼▼ Lit graves}burial place of the ^{▼▼ Lit sons of the people}common people.

24 But the hand of ^hAhikam the son of Shaphan was with Jeremiah, so that he was ⁱnot given into the hands of the people to put him to death.
