Jeremiah 38:14-16
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 38

14Then 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.' 15And 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.' 16But 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.'
King James Version

Chapter 38

14Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took Jeremiah the prophet unto him into the third entry that is in the house of the Lord: and the king said unto Jeremiah, I will ask thee a thing; hide nothing from me. 15Then 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? 16So 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.

15Jeremiah replied to Zedekiah, "If I tell you, you will kill me, won’t you? Besides, if I give you advice, you won’t listen to me anyway."
16King Zedekiah swore to Jeremiah in private, "As the Lord lives, who has given us this life, I will not kill you or hand you over to these men who intend to take your life."

15Jeremiah said, 'If I tell you the truth, you will kill me. And if I give you advice, you won’t listen to me anyway.'
16So King Zedekiah secretly promised him, 'As surely as the Lord our Creator lives, I will not kill you or hand you over to the men who want you dead.'
