Jeremiah 39:14King James 3 - The Literal Traslationeven they sent and took Jeremiah out of the court of the prison. And they gave him to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, to cause him to go out to the house; and he lived among the people. See the chapter |
And Zedekiah the king commanded, and they committed Jeremiah into the court of the prison, and that they should give him a piece of bread out of the baker’s street daily, until all the bread of the city was gone. And Jeremiah remained in the court of the prison until the day Jerusalem was taken, and he was there when Jerusalem was taken.
Even while he had not yet returned, he said, Or go back to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon has appointed over the cities of Judah, and live with him among the people, or to all that is right in your eyes to go, go. And the chief of the executioners gave him ration and a reward, and sent him away.
