WEBVTT 00:00.620 --> 00:01.420 Chapter 36. 00:01.960 --> 00:05.840 And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of 00:05.840 --> 00:10.620 Judah, that this word came unto Jeremiah from the Lord, saying, Take thee a roll of 00:10.620 --> 00:14.180 a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against 00:14.180 --> 00:18.460 Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations from the day I spake unto 00:18.460 --> 00:21.040 thee, from the days of Josiah even unto this day. 00:21.940 --> 00:25.660 It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purposed to do 00:25.660 --> 00:29.960 unto them, that they may return every man from his evil way, that I may forgive 00:29.960 --> 00:31.140 their iniquity and their sin. 00:32.100 --> 00:34.580 Then Jeremiah called Barak, the son of Neriah. 00:35.080 --> 00:38.840 And Barak wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord which he had 00:38.840 --> 00:40.920 spoken unto him upon a roll of a book. 00:41.500 --> 00:44.660 And Jeremiah commanded Barak, saying, I am shut up. 00:45.040 --> 00:46.600 I cannot go into the house of the Lord. 00:47.360 --> 00:50.760 Therefore go thou and read in the roll which thou hast written from my mouth the 00:50.760 --> 00:54.100 words of the Lord in the ears of the people in the Lord's house upon the 00:54.100 --> 00:54.700 fasting day. 00:55.200 --> 00:58.200 And also thou shalt read them in the ears of all Judah that come out of their 00:58.200 --> 00:58.540 cities. 00:59.420 --> 01:02.700 It may be they will present their supplication before the Lord and will 01:02.700 --> 01:04.380 return every one from his evil way. 01:05.120 --> 01:08.100 For great is the anger and the fury that the Lord hath pronounced against this 01:08.100 --> 01:08.440 people. 01:09.240 --> 01:13.380 And Barak, the son of Neriah, did, according to all that Jeremiah the prophet 01:13.380 --> 01:17.140 commanded him, reading in the book the words of the Lord in the Lord's house. 01:17.820 --> 01:21.260 And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of 01:21.260 --> 01:25.280 Judah, in the ninth month, that they proclaimed a fast before the Lord to all 01:25.280 --> 01:28.640 the people in Jerusalem and to all the people that came from the cities of Judah 01:28.640 --> 01:29.460 unto Jerusalem. 01:30.320 --> 01:34.560 Then read Barak in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the Lord in the 01:34.560 --> 01:38.300 chamber of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, the scribe, in the higher court, 01:38.560 --> 01:41.880 at the entry of the new gate of the Lord's house, in the ears of all the people. 01:42.320 --> 01:46.280 When Micaiah, the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the 01:46.280 --> 01:49.720 book all the words of the Lord, then he went down into the king's house, 01:49.880 --> 01:50.780 into the scribe's chamber. 01:50.780 --> 01:56.140 And, lo, all the princes sat there, even Elishema the scribe, and Eliah the 01:56.140 --> 02:00.920 son of Shimea, and Elnathan the son of Akbar, and Gemariah the son of Shaphan, 02:01.420 --> 02:04.100 and Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes. 02:04.880 --> 02:08.940 Then Micaiah declared unto them all the words that he had heard, when Barak read 02:08.940 --> 02:10.160 the book in the ears of the people. 02:10.960 --> 02:14.820 Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi, the son of Nephaniah, the son of 02:14.820 --> 02:19.400 Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Barak, saying, Take in thine hand the roll 02:19.400 --> 02:21.860 wherein thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. 02:22.660 --> 02:26.180 So Barak, the son of Nariah, took the roll in his hand, and came unto them. 02:27.040 --> 02:30.640 And they said unto him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. 02:31.340 --> 02:32.660 So Barak read it in their ears. 02:33.420 --> 02:36.860 Now it came to pass, when they had heard all the words, they were afraid both one 02:36.860 --> 02:40.540 and other, and said unto Barak, We will surely tell the king of all these 02:40.540 --> 02:40.900 words. 02:41.540 --> 02:45.760 And they asked Barak, saying, Tell us now, how didst thou write all these words at 02:45.760 --> 02:46.200 his mouth? 02:46.780 --> 02:50.680 Then Barak answered them, He pronounced all these words unto me with his mouth, 02:51.020 --> 02:52.520 and I wrote them with ink in the book. 02:53.380 --> 02:56.860 Then said the princes unto Barak, Go hide thee thou and Jeremiah, 02:57.380 --> 02:58.700 and let no man know where ye be. 02:59.520 --> 03:02.820 And they went in to the king into the court, but they laid up the roll in the 03:02.820 --> 03:06.020 chamber of Elishema the scribe, and told all the words in the ears of the 03:06.020 --> 03:06.200 king. 03:07.100 --> 03:10.760 So the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll, and he took it out of Elishema the 03:10.760 --> 03:14.740 scribe's chamber, and Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of 03:14.740 --> 03:16.380 all the princes which stood beside the king. 03:17.120 --> 03:20.760 Now the king sat in the winter house in the ninth month, and there was a fire on 03:20.760 --> 03:22.060 the hearth burning before him. 03:22.600 --> 03:26.940 And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four leaves, he cut it with 03:26.940 --> 03:31.160 the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was on the hearth, until all the roll 03:31.160 --> 03:33.200 was consumed in the fire that was on the hearth. 03:34.060 --> 03:38.000 Yet they were not afraid, nor rent their garments, neither the king nor any of his 03:38.000 --> 03:39.540 servants that heard all these words. 03:40.920 --> 03:45.000 Nevertheless, Elnathan, and Delaiah, and Gemariah had made intercession to the 03:45.000 --> 03:47.960 king that he would not burn the roll, but he would not hear them. 03:48.480 --> 03:51.820 But the king commanded Jeremiel, the son of Hamalek, and Saraiah, 03:52.180 --> 03:56.460 the son of Azrael, and Shalamiah, the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the 03:56.460 --> 03:57.900 scribe and Jeremiah the prophet. 03:58.740 --> 03:59.680 But the lord hid them. 04:00.580 --> 04:03.920 Then the word of the lord came to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned 04:03.920 --> 04:07.600 the roll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying, 04:07.600 --> 04:11.720 Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the 04:11.720 --> 04:14.560 first roll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hath burned. 04:15.380 --> 04:19.960 And thou shalt say to Jehoiakim king of Judah, Thou saith the lord, thou hast 04:19.960 --> 04:24.540 burned this roll, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, The king of 04:24.540 --> 04:28.520 Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from 04:28.520 --> 04:29.720 thence man and beast. 04:30.460 --> 04:34.400 Therefore thou saith the lord of Jehoiakim king of Judah, He shall have none to sit 04:34.400 --> 04:38.140 upon the throne of David, and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the 04:38.140 --> 04:39.840 heat, and in the night to the frost. 04:40.340 --> 04:43.100 And I will punish him and his seed and his servants for their iniquity. 04:43.800 --> 04:47.280 And I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men 04:47.280 --> 04:50.260 of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them. 04:50.720 --> 04:51.740 But they hearkened not. 04:52.680 --> 04:55.520 Then took Jeremiah another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, 04:55.860 --> 05:00.240 the son of Neriah, who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the 05:00.240 --> 05:03.000 book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire. 05:03.000 --> 05:06.620 And they were added besides unto them many like words.
