Ma se i principi verranno a sapere che io ho parlato con te e verranno da te a dirti: riferiscici ci che hai detto al re e anche ci che il re ha detto a te, non nasconderci nulla e non ti faremo morire
E se i capi odono che io ho parlato teco e vengono da te a dirti: Dichiaraci quello che tu hai detto al re; non ce lo celare, e non ti faremo morire; e il re che t’ha detto?…

Gill's Notes on the Bible
But if the princes hear that I have talked to thee,.... Which the king suspected they would; and could hardly think but somebody or other would see him and the prophet talking together; who would be officious enough to go and acquaint the princes with it, though he had endeavoured to be as private as possible; however, to provide against the worst, he instructs Jeremiah what to say to them, should they hear of their being together:
and they come unto thee: as he did not doubt but they would, as soon as ever they had notice of it:
and say unto thee, declare unto us now what thou hast said unto the king; hide it not from us, and we will not put thee to death; also what the king said unto thee: the king knew how inquisitive they would be, and sift the prophet to the bottom, to know both what the prophet said to the king, about the state of affairs respecting the Chaldeans, and the surrender of the city to them, which they supposed to be the subject of the discourse; and what were the king's thoughts about it, and his determinations concerning it; and in order to make the prophet easy, and more free and open to tell the whole matter, he suggests they would promise him his life should not be taken away.
