Jeremiah 32:2-4

Christian Standard Bible

² At that time, the army of the king of Babylon was besieging Jerusalem,^(A) and the prophet Jeremiah was imprisoned in the guard’s courtyard^(B) in the palace of the king of Judah. ³ King Zedekiah of Judah had imprisoned him, saying, “Why are you prophesying as you do? You say, ‘This is what the Lord says: Look, I am about to hand this city over to Babylon’s king, and he will capture it. ⁴ King Zedekiah of Judah will not escape from the Chaldeans; indeed, he will certainly be handed over to Babylon’s king. They will speak face to face^[a] and meet eye to eye.^(C)
