Contextual Overview
9And it comes to pass, in the fifth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, in the ninth month, they proclaimed a fast before YHWH to all the people in Jerusalem, and to all the people who are coming in from cities of Judah to Jerusalem; 10and Baruch reads in the scroll the words of Jeremiah in the house of YHWH, in the chamber of Gemariah son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher court, at the opening of the New Gate of the house of YHWH, in the ears of all the people. 11And Michaiah son of Gemariah, son of Shaphan, hears all the words of YHWH from off the scroll, 12and he goes down [to] the house of the king, to the chamber of the scribe, and behold, there all the heads are sitting: Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan son of Acbor, and Gemariah son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah son of Hananiah, and all the heads. 13And Micaiah declares to them all the words that he has heard when Baruch reads in the scroll in the ears of the people; 14and all the heads send to Baruch, Jehudi son of Nethaniah, son of Shelemiah, son of Cushi, saying, "Take in your hand the scroll, which you have read in the ears of the people, and come." And Baruch son of Neriah takes the scroll in his hand and comes to them, 15and they say to him, "Please sit down and read it in our ears," and Baruch reads [it] in their ears,16and it comes to pass, when they hear all the words, they have been afraid—one to another—and say to Baruch, "We surely declare all these words to the king." 17And they asked Baruch, saying, "Please declare to us, how did you write all these words from his mouth?" 18And Baruch says to them, "He pronounces from his mouth all these words to me, and I am writing on the scroll with ink."

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.
