So Baruch the sonne of Neriah toke the booke in his hande, and came vnto them. 15 And they sayd vnto him: Sit downe and reade the booke, that we may heare also: So Baruch read that they might heare. 16 Nowe when they had hearde all the wordes, they were abashed one vpon another, and sayde vnto Baruch: We will certifie the king of al these wordes. 17 And they examined Baruch, saying: Tell vs, howe diddest thou write all these wordes out of his mouth? 18 Then Baruch aunswered them: He spake all these wordes vnto me with his mouth, and I wrote them in the booke.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they said unto him, sit down now,.... Or, "pray sit down" q; they received him very courteously, and treated him with great humanity, and showed much respect to him, in beseeching him to sit down by them:
and read it in our ears; as he had done in the ears of the people, with an audible voice, clearly and distinctly, that they might be able to hear it, so as to understand it:
so Baruch read [it] in their ears; without any fear or dread, though in the king's palace, and before an assembly of princes; nor did he excuse himself on account of weariness, having just read it to the people; or upbraid the princes with not being in the temple, where they might have heard it.
