New American Standard Bible
Chapter 38
14
Then King Zedekiah sent
word
and had Jeremiah the prophet brought to him at the third entrance that is in the house of the
Lord
; and the king said to Jeremiah, 'I am going to ask you something; do not hide anything from me.'
15
And Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, 'If I tell you, will you not certainly put me to death? Besides, if I give you advice, you will not listen to me.'
16
But King Zedekiah swore to Jeremiah in secret, saying, 'As the
Lord
lives, who made this life for us, I certainly will not put you to death, nor will I hand you over to these men who are seeking your life.'

15
Then Jeremiah said unto Zedekiah, If I declare it unto thee, wilt thou not surely put me to death? and if I give thee counsel, wilt thou not hearken unto me?
16
So Zedekiah the king sware secretly unto Jeremiah, saying, As the
Lord
liveth, that made us this soul, I will not put thee to death, neither will I give thee into the hand of these men that seek thy life.
