Jeremiah 26:7-11

7 aThe priests and the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of the Lord. 8And when Jeremiah had finished speaking all that the Lord had commanded him to speak to all the people, then bthe priests and the prophets and all the people laid hold of him, saying, “You shall die! 9Why have you prophesied in the name of the Lord, saying, ‘This house shall be clike Shiloh, and this city shall be desolate, dwithout inhabitant’?” And all the people gathered around Jeremiah in the house of the Lord.

10When ethe officials of Judah heard these things, they came up from the king’s house to the house of the Lord and took their seat in the fentry of the New Gate of the house of the Lord. 11Then gthe priests and the prophets said to the officials and to all the people, hThis man deserves the sentence of death, because he has prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your own ears.”
