Jeremiah 26:21-23

EasyEnglish Bible

²¹ When King Jehoiakim, his personal guards and all his officers heard what Uriah was saying, the king wanted to kill him. But Uriah heard about it and he was afraid. So he ran away to Egypt. ²² But King Jehoiakim sent Akbor's son Elnathan and some other men to Egypt. ²³ They brought Uriah back from there to King Jehoiakim. The king punished Uriah with death. They threw his dead body in the place where they buried poor people.^[a]
