Jeremiah 38:20-24
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 38
20
But Jeremiah said, 'They will not turn you over. Please obey the
Lord
in what I am saying to you, so that it may go well for you and you may live.
21
But if you keep refusing to surrender, this is the word which the
Lord
has shown me:
22
‘Behold, all of the women who have been left in the palace of the king of Judah are going to be brought out to the officers of the king of Babylon; and those women will say,
'Your close friends
Have misled and overpowered you;
While your feet were sunk in the mire,
They turned back.'
23
They are also going to bring out all your wives and your sons to the Chaldeans, and you yourself will not escape from their hand, but will be seized by the hand of the king of Babylon, and this city will be burned with fire.’?'
24
Then Zedekiah said to Jeremiah, 'Let no one know about these words, and you will not die.
King James Version
Chapter 38
20
But Jeremiah said, They shall not deliver thee. Obey, I beseech thee, the voice of the
Lord
, which I speak unto thee: so it shall be well unto thee, and thy soul shall live.
21
But if thou refuse to go forth, this is the word that the
Lord
hath shewed me:
22
And, behold, all the women that are left in the king of Judah's house shall be brought forth to the king of Babylon's princes, and those women shall say, Thy friends have set thee on, and have prevailed against thee: thy feet are sunk in the mire, and they are turned away back.
23
So they shall bring out all thy wives and thy children to the Chaldeans: and thou shalt not escape out of their hand, but shalt be taken by the hand of the king of Babylon: and thou shalt cause this city to be burned with fire.
24
Then said Zedekiah unto Jeremiah, Let no man know of these words, and thou shalt not die.

20
"They will not hand you over," Jeremiah replied. "Obey the
Lord
in what I am telling you, so it may go well for you and you can live.
21
But if you refuse to surrender, this is the verdict that the
Lord
has shown me:
22
‘All the women who remain in the palace of Judah’s king will be brought out to the officials of the king of Babylon and will say to you,
"Your trusted friends misled you
and overcame you.
Your feet sank into the mire,
and they deserted you."
23
All your wives and children will be brought out to the Chaldeans. You yourself will not escape from them, for you will be seized by the king of Babylon and this city will burn.’"
24
Then Zedekiah warned Jeremiah, "Don’t let anyone know about this conversation or you will die.

Chapter 38
20
Jeremiah replied, 'You won’t be handed over to them if you choose to obey the
Lord
. Your life will be spared, and all will go well for you.
21
But if you refuse to surrender, this is what the
Lord
has revealed to me:
22
All the women left in your palace will be brought out and given to the officers of the Babylonian army. Then the women will taunt you, saying,
‘What fine friends you have!
They have betrayed and misled you.
When your feet sank in the mud,
they left you to your fate!’
23
All your wives and children will be led out to the Babylonians, and you will not escape. You will be seized by the king of Babylon, and this city will be burned down.'
24
Then Zedekiah said to Jeremiah, 'Don’t tell anyone you told me this, or you will die!

Jeremiah said, "You shall not be given to them. Obey now the voice of the
Lord
in what I say to you, and it shall be well with you, and your life shall be spared.
21
But if you refuse to surrender, this is the vision which the
Lord
has shown to me:
22
Behold, all the women left in the house of the king of Judah were being led out to the officials of the king of Babylon and were saying,
"‘Your trusted friends have deceived you
and prevailed against you;
now that your feet are sunk in the mud,
they turn away from you.’
23
All your wives and your sons shall be led out to the Chaldeans, and you yourself shall not escape from their hand, but shall be seized by the king of Babylon, and this city shall be burned with fire."
24
