Jeremiah 36:11–19

¹¹And Michaiah son of Gemariah, son of Shaphan, heareth all the words of Jehovah from off the book, ¹²and he goeth down to the house of the king, unto the chamber of the scribe, and lo, there are all the heads sitting: Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan son of Acbor, and Gemariah son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah son of Hananiah, and all the heads. ¹³And declare to them doth Micaiah all the words that he hath heard, when Baruch readeth in the book in the ears of the people; ¹⁴and all the heads send unto Baruch, Jehudi son of Nethaniah, son of Shelemiah, son of Cushi, saying, ‘The roll in which thou hast read in the ears of the people take in thy hand, and come.’ And Baruch son of Neriah taketh the roll in his hand and cometh in unto them, ¹⁵and they say unto him, ‘Sit down, we pray thee, and read it in our ears,’ and Baruch readeth in their ears, ¹⁶and it cometh to pass, when they hear all the words, they have been afraid one at another, and say unto Baruch, ‘We do surely declare to the king all these words.’ ¹⁷And they asked Baruch, saying, ‘Declare, we pray thee, to us, how didst thou write all these words—from his mouth?’ ¹⁸And Baruch saith to them, ‘From his mouth, he pronounceth unto me all these words, and I am writing on the book with ink.’ ¹⁹And the heads say unto Baruch, ‘Go, be hidden, thou and Jeremiah, and let no one know where ye are.’
