New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Jeremiah 36
29 And concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah you shall say, ’Thus says the Lord, "You have burned this scroll, saying, ’Why have you written on it that the king of Babylon will certainly come and destroy this land, and will make man and beast to cease from it?’"
30 Therefore thus says the Lord concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah, "He shall have no one to sit on the throne of David, and his dead body shall be cast out to the heat of the day and the frost of the night.
31 I will also punish him and his descendants and his servants for their iniquity, and I will bring on them and the inhabitants of Jerusalem and the men of Judah all the calamity that I have declared to them-but they did not listen."’"
32 Then Jeremiah took another scroll and gave it to Baruch the son of Neriah, the scribe, and he wrote on it at the dictation of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire; and many similar words were added to them.
Jeremiah 37
1 Now Zedekiah the son of Josiah whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had made king in the land of Judah, reigned as king in place of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim.
2 But neither he nor his servants nor the people of the land listened to the words of the Lord which He spoke through Jeremiah the prophet.
3 Yet King Zedekiah sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, to Jeremiah the prophet, saying, "Please pray to the Lord our God on our behalf."
4 Now Jeremiah was still coming in and going out among the people, for they had not yet put him in the prison.
5 Meanwhile, Pharaoh’s army had set out from Egypt; and when the Chaldeans who had been besieging Jerusalem heard the report about them, they lifted the siege from Jerusalem.
6 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah the prophet, saying,
7 "Thus says the Lord God of Israel, ’Thus you are to say to the king of Judah, who sent you to Me to inquire of Me: "Behold, Pharaoh’s army which has come out for your assistance is going to return to its own land of Egypt.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
