7And the priests and the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of Yahweh.

8And it happened, when Yirmeyahu had finished speaking all that Yahweh had commanded him to speak to all the people, that the priests and the prophets and all the people seized him, saying, “You must surely die!”

9Why have you prophesied in the name of the LORD, saying, ‘This house will become like Shiloh, and this city will be laid waste, with no inhabitant’?” Then all the people gathered against Jeremiah in the house of the LORD.
