Et Jérémie répondit : cela n'est point; je ne vais point me rendre aux Caldéens; mais il ne l'écouta point, et Jireija prit Jérémie, et l'amena vers les principaux.
Et Jérémie répondit: C'est faux! Je ne passe point aux Caldéens. Mais il ne l'écouta pas. Jiréija saisit donc Jérémie, et l'emmena vers les chefs.
Et Jérémie dit: C'est un mensonge, je ne vais point me rendre aux Chaldéens. Mais il ne l'écouta pas; et Jirija saisit Jérémie et l'amena aux princes.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then said Jeremiah, [it is] false,.... Or a "falsehood" k; as undoubtedly it was;
I fall not away to the Chaldeans; for the Chaldean army was gone from the city; nor did Jeremiah like so well to be with an idolatrous people; for after the city was taken, when Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard gave him his choice, either to go with him to Babylon, where he promised to take care of him; or to go to Gedaliah, who was made governor of Judah; he chose rather to be with him, and his poor company:
but he hearkened not to him; would not hear his defence, or however would not give any credit to it, being unwilling to let slip this opportunity of doing him ill will:
so Irijah took Jeremiah, and brought him to the princes; the princes of Zedekiah's court, or the princes of the people, the civil magistrates; or it may be the great sanhedrim, who he knew had no good disposition towards the prophet.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The princes - Not the noblemen trained in the days of Josiah and Jeremiah’s friends Jeremiah 26:16, but those described in Jeremiah 24:8. They assumed that the accusation was true; they first scourged and then imprisoned Jeremiah.
