Now unto Jeremiah, had come the word of Yahweh, while he was yet shut up in the guard-court, saying:

Go and speak to Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, saying, - Thus saith Yahweh of hosts God of Israel, Behold me! bringing about my words against this city, for, calamity - and not for blessing, - and they shall come to pass before thee, in that day.

But I will deliver thee in that day, Declareth Yahweh, - and thou shalt not be given up into the hand of the men from the face of whom, thou, mightest shrink with fear.

For I wilt, surely, deliver, thee, and by the sword, shalt thou not fall, - but thou shalt have thine own life as a spoil, Because thou hast trusted in me, Declareth Yahweh.
