Jeremiah 36:10-20
New American Standard Bible
11Now when Micaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard all the words of the Lord from the book,
12he went down to the king’s house, into the scribe’s chamber. And behold, all the officials were sitting there—Elishama the scribe, Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, Elnathan the son of Achbor, Gemariah the son of Shaphan, Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the other officials.
13And Micaiah declared to them all the words that he had heard when Baruch read from the book to the people.
14Then all the officials sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, who was the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, 'Take in your hand the scroll from which you have read to the people and come.' So Baruch the son of Neriah took the scroll in his hand and came to them.
15And they said to him, 'Sit down, please, and read it to us.' So Baruch read it to them.
16When they had heard all the words, they turned in fear one to another. And they said to Baruch, 'We will certainly report all these words to the king.'
17Then they asked Baruch, saying, 'Tell us, please, how did you write all these words? Was it at Jeremiah’s dictation?'
18And Baruch said to them, 'He dictated all these words to me, and I wrote them with ink on the book.'
19Then the officials said to Baruch, 'Go, hide yourself, you and Jeremiah, and do not let anyone know where you are.'
King James Version
11When Michaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the book all the words of the Lord,
12Then he went down into the king's house, into the scribe's chamber: and, lo, all the princes sat there, even Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the son of Achbor, and Gemariah the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.
13Then Michaiah declared unto them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.
14Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, Take in thine hand the roll wherein thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah took the roll in his hand, and came unto them.
15And they said unto him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. So Baruch read it in their ears.
16Now it came to pass, when they had heard all the words, they were afraid both one and other, and said unto Baruch, We will surely tell the king of all these words.
17And they asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, How didst thou write all these words at his mouth?
18Then Baruch answered them, He pronounced all these words unto me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.
19Then said the princes unto Baruch, Go, hide thee, thou and Jeremiah; and let no man know where ye be.
