1And when Jeremiah had finished speaking to all the people all the words of Yahweh their God, with which Yahweh their God had sent him to them—all these words—

2Azariah son of Hoshaiah, Johanan son of Kareah, and all the arrogant men said to Jeremiah, “You are speaking a lie. The LORD our God has not sent you to say, ‘You must not go to Egypt to sojourn there.’”

3For Baruch son of Neriah is inciting you against us, in order to give us into the hand of the Chaldeans, to put us to death and to carry us away into exile to Babylon.
