Jeremiah 38:24
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Then Zedekiah warned Jeremiah, “Do not let anyone know about this conversation, or you will die.
In context
22 All the women who remain in the palace of the king of Judah will be brought out to the officials of the king of Babylon, and those women will say: ‘They misled you and overcame you— those trusted friends of yours. Your feet sank into the mire, and they deserted you.’
23 All your wives and children will be brought out to the Chaldeans. And you yourself will not escape their grasp, for you will be seized by the king of Babylon, and this city will be burned down.”
24 Then Zedekiah warned Jeremiah, “Do not let anyone know about this conversation, or you will die.
25 If the officials hear that I have spoken with you, and they come and demand of you, ‘Tell us what you said to the king and what he said to you; do not hide it from us, or we will kill you,’
26 then tell them, ‘I was presenting to the king my petition that he not return me to the house of Jonathan to die there.’”
