Bible. Jeremiah
24:026:019 Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him at all to
death? did he not fear the LORD, and besought the LORD, and
the LORD repented him of the evil which he had pronounced
against them? Thus might we procure great evil against our
souls.
24:026:020 And there was also a man that prophesied in the name of the
LORD, Urijah the son of Shemaiah of Kirjathjearim, who
prophesied against this city and against this land according
to all the words of Jeremiah.
24:026:021 And when Jehoiakim the king, with all his mighty men, and all
the princes, heard his words, the king sought to put him to
death: but when Urijah heard it, he was afraid, and fled, and
went into Egypt;
24:026:022 And Jehoiakim the king sent men into Egypt, namely, Elnathan
the son of Achbor, and certain men with him into Egypt.
24:026:023 And they fetched forth Urijah out of Egypt, and brought him
unto Jehoiakim the king; who slew him with the sword, and cast
his dead body into the graves of the common people.
24:026:024 Nevertheless the hand of Ahikam the son of Shaphan was with
Jeremiah, that they should not give him into the hand of the
people to put him to death.
24:027:001 In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah
king of Judah came this word unto Jeremiah from the LORD,
saying,
24:027:002 Thus saith the LORD to me; Make thee bonds and yokes, and put
them upon thy neck,
24:027:003 And send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab,
and to the king of the Ammonites, and to the king of Tyrus,
and to the king of Zidon, by the hand of the messengers which
come to Jerusalem unto Zedekiah king of Judah;
24:027:004 And command them to say unto their masters, Thus saith the
LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Thus shall ye say unto your
masters;
24:027:005 I have made the earth, the man and the beast that are upon the
ground, by my great power and by my outstretched arm, and have
given it unto whom it seemed meet unto me.
24:027:006 And now have I given all these lands into the hand of
Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant; and the beasts
of the field have I given him also to serve him.
24:027:007 And all nations shall serve him, and his son, and his son's
son, until the very time of his land come: and then many
nations and great kings shall serve themselves of him.
