By the hand of Elasa the son of Saphan and Gamarias the son of Helcias, whom Sedecias king of Juda sent to Babylon to Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, saying:
And seventy men of the ancients of the house of Israel and Jezonias the son of Saaphan stood in the midst of them that stood before the pictures. And every one had a censer in his hand: and a cloud of smoke went up from the incense.
Sent and took Jeremias out of the court of the prison and committed him to Codolias the son of Ahicam the son of Saphan, that he might go home and dwell among the people.
And he commanded Helcias the priest, and Ahicam the son of Saphan, and Achobor the son of Micha, and Saphan the scribe, and Asaia the king's servant, saying:
And Helcias the high priest said to Saphan the scribe: I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord. And Helcias gave the book to Saphan, and he read it.
And they called for the king: and there went out to them Eliacim the son of Helcias, who was over the house, and Sobna the scribe, and Joahe the son of Asaph, the recorder.
