1In the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord: (Jer 25:1; Jer 36:9; Jer 45:1)2“Take a scroll and write on it all the words that I have spoken to you against Israel and Judah and all the nations, from the day I spoke to you, from the days of Josiah until today. (Ezr 6:2; Ps 40:7; Jer 1:2; Jer 25:2; Jer 25:3; Jer 25:15; Jer 30:2; Jer 51:60; Eze 2:9; Zec 5:1)3It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the disaster that I intend to do to them, so that every one may turn from his evil way, and that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.” (Jer 18:8; Jer 26:3; Jer 31:34; Eze 12:3; Am 5:15; Zep 2:3)4Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah, and Baruch wrote on a scroll at the dictation of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord that he had spoken to him. (Jer 32:12; Jer 36:2)5And Jeremiah ordered Baruch, saying, “I am banned from going to the house of the Lord, (Jer 32:2; Jer 33:1; Jer 36:4; Jer 39:15)6so you are to go, and on a day of fasting in the hearing of all the people in the Lord’s house you shall read the words of the Lord from the scroll that you have written at my dictation. You shall read them also in the hearing of all the men of Judah who come out of their cities. (Jer 36:9)7It may be that their plea for mercy will come before the Lord, and that every one will turn from his evil way, for great is the anger and wrath that the Lord has pronounced against this people.” (Jer 36:3)8And Baruch the son of Neriah did all that Jeremiah the prophet ordered him about reading from the scroll the words of the Lord in the Lord’s house.9In the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the ninth month, all the people in Jerusalem and all the people who came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem proclaimed a fast before the Lord. (2Ch 20:3; Jer 36:1; Jer 36:22)10Then, in the hearing of all the people, Baruch read the words of Jeremiah from the scroll, in the house of the Lord, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the secretary, which was in the upper court, at the entry of the New Gate of the Lord’s house. (Jer 35:2)11When Micaiah the son of Gemariah, son of Shaphan, heard all the words of the Lord from the scroll, (2Ch 34:8; 2Ch 34:15; 2Ch 34:18; Jer 26:24; Jer 40:5)12he went down to the king’s house, into the secretary’s chamber, and all the officials were sitting there: Elishama the secretary, Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, Elnathan the son of Achbor, Gemariah the son of Shaphan, Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the officials. (2Ki 25:25; Jer 26:10; Jer 26:22; Jer 36:20; Jer 36:25; Jer 41:1)13And Micaiah told them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the scroll in the hearing of the people.14Then all the officials sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, son of Shelemiah, son of Cushi, to say to Baruch, “Take in your hand the scroll that you read in the hearing of the people, and come.” So Baruch the son of Neriah took the scroll in his hand and came to them. (Jer 36:26; Jer 37:3; Jer 37:13; Jer 38:1)15And they said to him, “Sit down and read it.” So Baruch read it to them.16When they heard all the words, they turned one to another in fear. And they said to Baruch, “We must report all these words to the king.” (Jer 36:20)17Then they asked Baruch, “Tell us, please, how did you write all these words? Was it at his dictation?”18Baruch answered them, “He dictated all these words to me, while I wrote them with ink on the scroll.” (Jer 36:32; Ro 16:22)19Then the officials said to Baruch, “Go and hide, you and Jeremiah, and let no one know where you are.”20So they went into the court to the king, having put the scroll in the chamber of Elishama the secretary, and they reported all the words to the king. (Jer 36:12)21Then the king sent Jehudi to get the scroll, and he took it from the chamber of Elishama the secretary. And Jehudi read it to the king and all the officials who stood beside the king.22It was the ninth month, and the king was sitting in the winter house, and there was a fire burning in the fire pot before him. (Jer 36:9; Am 3:15; Joh 10:22)23As Jehudi read three or four columns, the king would cut them off with a knife and throw them into the fire in the fire pot, until the entire scroll was consumed in the fire that was in the fire pot.24Yet neither the king nor any of his servants who heard all these words was afraid, nor did they tear their garments. (Jos 7:6; Jer 36:16)25Even when Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah urged the king not to burn the scroll, he would not listen to them. (Isa 59:16; Jer 36:12)26And the king commanded Jerahmeel the king’s son and Seraiah the son of Azriel and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel to seize Baruch the secretary and Jeremiah the prophet, but the Lord hid them. (1Ki 22:26; Jer 36:14; Jer 45:1; Zep 1:8)27Now after the king had burned the scroll with the words that Baruch wrote at Jeremiah’s dictation, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah:28“Take another scroll and write on it all the former words that were in the first scroll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah has burned.29And concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah you shall say, ‘Thus says the Lord, You have burned this scroll, saying, “Why have you written in it that the king of Babylon will certainly come and destroy this land, and will cut off from it man and beast?” (Jer 26:9)30Therefore thus says the Lord concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: He shall have none to sit on the throne of David, and his dead body shall be cast out to the heat by day and the frost by night. (Jer 22:2; Jer 22:4; Jer 22:19; Jer 22:30)31And I will punish him and his offspring and his servants for their iniquity. I will bring upon them and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem and upon the people of Judah all the disaster that I have pronounced against them, but they would not hear.’” (Jer 1:16)32Then Jeremiah took another scroll and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who wrote on it at the dictation of Jeremiah all the words of the scroll that Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire. And many similar words were added to them. (Jer 36:4; Jer 36:18)
1In the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord:2‘Take a scroll and write on it all the words I have spoken to you concerning Israel, Judah and all the other nations from the time I began speaking to you in the reign of Josiah till now.3Perhaps when the people of Judah hear about every disaster I plan to inflict on them, they will each turn from their wicked ways; then I will forgive their wickedness and their sin.’4So Jeremiah called Baruch son of Neriah, and while Jeremiah dictated all the words the Lord had spoken to him, Baruch wrote them on the scroll.5Then Jeremiah told Baruch, ‘I am restricted; I am not allowed to go to the Lord’s temple.6So you go to the house of the Lord on a day of fasting and read to the people from the scroll the words of the Lord that you wrote as I dictated. Read them to all the people of Judah who come in from their towns.7Perhaps they will bring their petition before the Lord and will each turn from their wicked ways, for the anger and wrath pronounced against this people by the Lord are great.’8Baruch son of Neriah did everything Jeremiah the prophet told him to do; at the Lord’s temple he read the words of the Lord from the scroll.9In the ninth month of the fifth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, a time of fasting before the Lord was proclaimed for all the people in Jerusalem and those who had come from the towns of Judah.10From the room of Gemariah son of Shaphan the secretary, which was in the upper courtyard at the entrance of the New Gate of the temple, Baruch read to all the people at the Lord’s temple the words of Jeremiah from the scroll.11When Micaiah son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, heard all the words of the Lord from the scroll,12he went down to the secretary’s room in the royal palace, where all the officials were sitting: Elishama the secretary, Delaiah son of Shemaiah, Elnathan son of Akbor, Gemariah son of Shaphan, Zedekiah son of Hananiah, and all the other officials.13After Micaiah told them everything he had heard Baruch read to the people from the scroll,14all the officials sent Jehudi son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to say to Baruch, ‘Bring the scroll from which you have read to the people and come.’ So Baruch son of Neriah went to them with the scroll in his hand.15They said to him, ‘Sit down, please, and read it to us.’ So Baruch read it to them.16When they heard all these words, they looked at each other in fear and said to Baruch, ‘We must report all these words to the king.’17Then they asked Baruch, ‘Tell us, how did you come to write all this? Did Jeremiah dictate it?’18‘Yes,’ Baruch replied, ‘he dictated all these words to me, and I wrote them in ink on the scroll.’19Then the officials said to Baruch, ‘You and Jeremiah, go and hide. Don’t let anyone know where you are.’20After they put the scroll in the room of Elishama the secretary, they went to the king in the courtyard and reported everything to him.21The king sent Jehudi to get the scroll, and Jehudi brought it from the room of Elishama the secretary and read it to the king and all the officials standing beside him.22It was the ninth month and the king was sitting in the winter apartment, with a fire burning in the brazier in front of him.23Whenever Jehudi had read three or four columns of the scroll, the king cut them off with a scribe’s knife and threw them into the brazier, until the entire scroll was burned in the fire.24The king and all his attendants who heard all these words showed no fear, nor did they tear their clothes.25Even though Elnathan, Delaiah and Gemariah urged the king not to burn the scroll, he would not listen to them.26Instead, the king commanded Jerahmeel, a son of the king, Seraiah son of Azriel and Shelemiah son of Abdeel to arrest Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet. But the Lord had hidden them.27After the king burned the scroll containing the words that Baruch had written at Jeremiah’s dictation, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah:28‘Take another scroll and write on it all the words that were on the first scroll, which Jehoiakim king of Judah burned up.29Also tell Jehoiakim king of Judah, “This is what the Lord says: you burned that scroll and said, ‘Why did you write on it that the king of Babylon would certainly come and destroy this land and wipe from it both man and beast?’30Therefore this is what the Lord says about Jehoiakim king of Judah: he will have no-one to sit on the throne of David; his body will be thrown out and exposed to the heat by day and the frost by night.31I will punish him and his children and his attendants for their wickedness; I will bring on them and those living in Jerusalem and the people of Judah every disaster I pronounced against them, because they have not listened.” ’32So Jeremiah took another scroll and gave it to the scribe Baruch son of Neriah, and as Jeremiah dictated, Baruch wrote on it all the words of the scroll that Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire. And many similar words were added to them.
1A message from the LORD came to Jeremiah. It came in the fourth year that Jehoiakim was king of Judah. He was the son of Josiah. The message said,2‘Get a scroll. Write on it all the words I have spoken to you. Write down what I have said about Israel, Judah and all the other nations. Write what I have said to you from the time of King Josiah until now.3The people of Judah will hear about all the trouble I plan to bring on them. Maybe then each of them will turn from their evil ways. If they do, I will forgive their sins and the evil things they have done.’4So Jeremiah sent for Baruch, the son of Neriah. Jeremiah told him to write down all the words the LORD had spoken to him. And Baruch wrote them on the scroll.5Then Jeremiah said to him, ‘I’m not allowed to go to the LORD’s temple.6So you go there. Go on a day when the people are fasting. Read to them from the scroll. Read the words of the LORD you wrote down as I gave them to you. Read them to all the people of Judah who come in from their towns.7They will hear what the LORD will do to them when his burning anger blazes out against them. Then perhaps they will pray to him. And maybe each of them will turn from their evil ways.’8Baruch, the son of Neriah, did everything Jeremiah the prophet told him to do. He went to the LORD’s temple. There he read the words of the LORD from the scroll.9It was in the fifth year that Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, was king of Judah. It was the ninth month of that year. A time of fasting at the LORD’s temple had been ordered. All the people in Jerusalem were told to take part in it. So were those who had come in from the towns of Judah.10Baruch read to all the people who were at the LORD’s temple. He read Jeremiah’s words from the scroll. He was in the room of Gemariah the secretary. It was located in the upper courtyard at the entrance of the New Gate of the temple. Gemariah was the son of Shaphan.11Micaiah was the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan. Micaiah heard Baruch reading all the LORD’s words that were written on the scroll.12Then he went down to the secretary’s room in the royal palace. All the officials were sitting there. They included the secretary Elishama and Delaiah, the son of Shemaiah. Elnathan, the son of Akbor, was also there. So was Gemariah, the son of Shaphan. Zedekiah, the son of Hananiah, was there too. And so were all the other officials.13Micaiah told all of them what he had heard. He told them everything Baruch had read to the people from the scroll.14All the officials sent Jehudi to speak to Baruch, the son of Neriah. Jehudi was the son of Nethaniah. Nethaniah was the son of Shelemiah. Shelemiah was the son of Cushi. Jehudi said to Baruch, ‘Come. Bring the scroll you have read to the people.’ So Baruch went to them. He carried the scroll with him.15The officials said to him, ‘Please sit down. Read the scroll to us.’ So Baruch read it to them.16They heard all its words. Then they looked at one another in fear. They said to Baruch, ‘We must report all these words to the king.’17They said to Baruch, ‘Tell us. How did you happen to write all these things? Did Jeremiah tell you to do this?’18‘Yes’, Baruch replied. ‘He told me to write down all these words. So I wrote them in ink on the scroll.’19Then the officials spoke to Baruch. They said, ‘You and Jeremiah must go and hide. Don’t let anyone know where you are.’20The officials put the scroll in the room of Elishama the secretary. Then they went to the king in the courtyard. They reported everything to him.21The king sent Jehudi to get the scroll. Jehudi brought it from the room of Elishama the secretary. Jehudi read it to the king. All the officials were standing beside the king. So they heard it too.22It was the ninth month. The king was sitting in his winter apartment. A fire was burning in the brazier in front of him.23Jehudi read three or four sections from the scroll. Then the king cut them off with a secretary’s knife. He threw them into the brazier. He did that until the entire scroll was burned in the fire.24The king and some of his attendants heard all these words. But they weren’t afraid. They didn’t tear their clothes.25Elnathan, Delaiah and Gemariah begged the king not to burn the scroll. But he wouldn’t listen to them.26Instead, the king commanded three men to arrest Baruch the secretary and Jeremiah the prophet. But the LORD had hidden them. The three men were Jerahmeel, Seraiah and Shelemiah. Jerahmeel was a member of the royal court. Seraiah was the son of Azriel. And Shelemiah was the son of Abdeel.27A message from the LORD came to Jeremiah. It came after the king burned the scroll. On the scroll were the words Baruch had written down. Jeremiah had told him to write them. The message said,28‘Get another scroll. Write on it all the words that were on the first one. King Jehoiakim burned that one.29Also tell King Jehoiakim, “The LORD says, ‘You burned that scroll. You said to Baruch, “Why did you write that the king of Babylon would certainly come? Why did you write that he would destroy this land? And why did you write that he would remove from it people and animals alike?” ’30So now the LORD has something to say about Jehoiakim, the king of Judah. He says, ‘No one from Jehoiakim’s family line will sit on David’s throne. Jehoiakim’s body will be thrown out. It will lie outside in the heat by day and in the frost at night.31I will punish him and his children and his attendants. I will punish them for their sinful ways. I will bring on them all the trouble I said I would. And I will bring it on the people of Jerusalem and Judah. They have not listened to me.’ ” ’32So Jeremiah got another scroll. He gave it to Baruch the secretary. He was the son of Neriah. Jeremiah told Baruch what to write on it. Baruch wrote down all the words that were on the scroll King Jehoiakim had burned in the fire. And many more words were written on it. They were similar to those that had already been written.
Jeremiah 36
King James Version
1And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, that this word came unto Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,2Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spake unto thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day.3It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do unto them; that they may return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.4Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah: and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the LORD, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book.5And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up; I cannot go into the house of the LORD:6Therefore go thou, and read in the roll, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of the LORD in the ears of the people in the LORD' house upon the fasting day: and also thou shalt read them in the ears of all Judah that come out of their cities.7It may be they will present their supplication before the LORD, and will return every one from his evil way: for great is the anger and the fury that the LORD hath pronounced against this people.8And Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book the words of the LORD in the LORD' house.9And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, in the ninth month, that they proclaimed a fast before the LORD to all the people in Jerusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Judah unto Jerusalem.10Then read Baruch in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the LORD, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher court, at the entry of the new gate of the LORD' house, in the ears of all the people.11When Michaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the book all the words of the LORD,12Then he went down into the king' house, into the scribe' chamber: and, lo, all the princes sat there, even Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the son of Achbor, and Gemariah the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.13Then Michaiah declared unto them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.14Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, Take in thine hand the roll wherein thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah took the roll in his hand, and came unto them.15And they said unto him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. So Baruch read it in their ears.16Now it came to pass, when they had heard all the words, they were afraid both one and other, and said unto Baruch, We will surely tell the king of all these words.17And they asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, How didst thou write all these words at his mouth?18Then Baruch answered them, He pronounced all these words unto me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.19Then said the princes unto Baruch, Go, hide thee, thou and Jeremiah; and let no man know where ye be.20And they went in to the king into the court, but they laid up the roll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe, and told all the words in the ears of the king.21So the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll: and he took it out of Elishama the scribe' chamber. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes which stood beside the king.22Now the king sat in the winterhouse in the ninth month: and there was a fire on the hearth burning before him.23And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four leaves, he cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was on the hearth, until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was on the hearth.24Yet they were not afraid, nor rent their garments, neither the king, nor any of his servants that heard all these words.25Nevertheless Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the roll: but he would not hear them.26But the king commanded Jerahmeel the son of Hammelech, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet: but the LORD hid them.27Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the roll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying,28Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hath burned.29And thou shalt say to Jehoiakim king of Judah, Thus saith the LORD; Thou hast burned this roll, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, The king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from thence man and beast?30Therefore thus saith the LORD of Jehoiakim king of Judah; He shall have none to sit upon the throne of David: and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.31And I will punish him and his seed and his servants for their iniquity; and I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them; but they hearkened not.32Then took Jeremiah another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah; who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire: and there were added besides unto them many like words.
1Und es geschah im vierten Jahr Jojakims, des Sohnes Joschijas, des Königs von Juda, da erging vom HERRN dieses Wort an Jeremia: (Jer 25:1)2Nimm dir eine Buchrolle und schreib darauf alle Worte, die ich zu dir über Israel und Juda und über alle Völker gesprochen habe, von dem Tag an, an dem ich zu dir geredet habe seit den Tagen Joschijas bis zum heutigen Tag! (Jer 25:3)3Vielleicht hört das Haus Juda all das Unheil, das ich ihnen zu tun gedenke, sodass sie umkehren von ihrem bösen Weg, und ich kann ihnen Schuld und Sünde verzeihen. (Jer 26:3)4Da rief Jeremia Baruch, den Sohn Nerijas, und Baruch schrieb nach dem Diktat Jeremias alle Worte, die der HERR zu ihm gesprochen hatte, auf eine Buchrolle.5Darauf befahl Jeremia dem Baruch: Mir ist es verwehrt, in das Haus des HERRN zu gehen.6Darum geh du hin und lies am Fasttag aus der Rolle, die du nach meinem Diktat geschrieben hast, dem Volk im Haus des HERRN die Worte des HERRN vor! Auch allen Judäern, die aus ihren Städten herbeiströmen, sollst du sie vorlesen.7Vielleicht gelangt ihr Flehen um Gnade vor den HERRN und sie kehren um, jeder von seinem bösen Weg; denn groß ist der Zorn und Grimm, den der HERR diesem Volk angekündigt hat.8Baruch, der Sohn Nerijas, handelte genau nach dem Auftrag des Propheten Jeremia und las im Haus des HERRN die Worte des HERRN aus dem Buch vor.9Und es geschah: Im fünften Jahr Jojakims, des Sohnes Joschijas, des Königs von Juda, hatte man im neunten Monat ein Fasten vor dem HERRN ausgerufen, für alles Volk in Jerusalem und alle, die aus den Städten Judas nach Jerusalem kamen.10Nun las Baruch im Haus des HERRN dem ganzen Volk aus dem Buch die Worte Jeremias vor, und zwar in der Halle Gemarjas, des Sohnes des Schreibers Schafan, im oberen Vorhof am Eingang des Neuen Tempeltores.11Als Micha, der Sohn Gemarjas, des Sohnes Schafans, alle Worte des HERRN aus dem Buch vernommen hatte,12ging er hinab in den Königspalast zur Halle des Schreibers. Und siehe, dort saßen alle hohen Beamten zusammen: der Schreiber Elischama, Delaja, der Sohn Schemajas, Elnatan, der Sohn Achbors, Gemarja, der Sohn Schafans, Zidkija, der Sohn Hananjas, und alle sonstigen Beamten.13Micha teilte ihnen alle Worte mit, die er gehört hatte, als Baruch dem Volk aus dem Buch vorlas.14Da schickten die versammelten Beamten Jehudi, den Sohn Netanjas, des Sohnes Schelemjas, des Sohnes Kuschis, zu Baruch und ließen ihm sagen: Nimm die Rolle, aus der du dem Volk vorgelesen hast, und komm hierher! Sogleich nahm Baruch, der Sohn Nerijas, die Rolle in seine Hand und kam zu ihnen.15Sie sagten zu ihm: Setz dich und lies sie uns vor! Nun las ihnen Baruch vor.16Als sie all die Worte hörten, schauten sie einander erschrocken an und sagten zu Baruch: Wir müssen unbedingt dem König alle diese Worte mitteilen.17Sie fragten Baruch: Sag uns doch, wie hast du alle diese Worte nach seinem Diktat niedergeschrieben?[1]18Baruch erwiderte ihnen: Jeremia hat mir alle diese Worte diktiert und ich habe sie mit Tinte in das Buch geschrieben.19Darauf sagten die Beamten zu Baruch: Geh und verbirg dich, du und auch Jeremia! Niemand soll wissen, wo ihr seid.20Dann begaben sie sich zum König in den Palasthof, nachdem sie die Rolle in der Halle des Schreibers Elischama verwahrt hatten, und teilten dem König alle Worte mit.21Da sandte der König den Jehudi, um die Rolle zu holen, und dieser holte sie aus der Halle des Schreibers Elischama. Und Jehudi las sie dem König und allen Beamten vor, die um den König standen.22Der König wohnte im Winterhaus, es war ja der neunte Monat, und das Kohlenbecken vor ihm war angezündet.23Und es geschah: Sooft Jehudi drei oder vier Spalten gelesen hatte, schnitt sie der König mit dem Schreibermesser ab und warf sie in das Feuer auf dem Kohlenbecken, bis die ganze Rolle im Feuer auf dem Kohlenbecken vernichtet war.24Weder der König noch alle seine Diener, die alle diese Worte hörten, erschraken und sie zerrissen auch nicht ihre Kleider. (2Ki 22:11)25Selbst als Elnatan, Delaja und Gemarja den König drängten, die Rolle nicht zu verbrennen, hörte er nicht auf sie.26Vielmehr befahl der König dem Prinzen Jerachmeël, ferner Seraja, dem Sohn Asriëls, und Schelemja, dem Sohn Abdeëls, den Schreiber Baruch und den Propheten Jeremia festzunehmen; aber der HERR hielt sie verborgen.27Und das Wort des HERRN erging an Jeremia, nachdem der König die Rolle und die Worte verbrannt hatte, die Baruch nach dem Diktat Jeremias niedergeschrieben hatte:28Nimm dir eine andere Rolle und schreib all die früheren Worte darauf, die auf der ersten Rolle standen, die Jojakim, der König von Juda, verbrannt hat.29Über Jojakim aber, den König von Juda, sollst du sagen: So spricht der HERR: Du hast diese Rolle verbrannt und gesagt: Warum hast du darauf geschrieben, der König von Babel werde bestimmt kommen, dieses Land verheeren und Mensch und Vieh darin vernichten?30Darum - so spricht der HERR über Jojakim, den König von Juda: Er wird keinen Nachkommen mehr haben, der auf dem Thron Davids sitzt, und sein Leichnam soll hinausgeworfen werden in die Hitze des Tags und die Kälte der Nacht. (Jer 22:19)31Ich suche ihn, seine Nachkommen und seine Diener heim für ihre Schuld. Ich bringe über sie, über die Einwohner Jerusalems und die Leute von Juda all das Unheil, das ich ihnen angekündigt habe. Sie aber haben nicht gehört.32Da nahm Jeremia eine andere Rolle und übergab sie dem Schreiber Baruch, dem Sohn Nerijas. Dieser schrieb auf sie nach dem Diktat Jeremias alle Worte des Buches, das Jojakim, der König von Juda, im Feuer verbrannt hatte. Ihnen wurden noch viele ähnliche Worte hinzugefügt.
