Jeremiah 32:6-9

Evangelical Heritage Version

Jeremiah Redeems a Field

⁶ Jeremiah said, “The word of the Lord came to me. ⁷ Watch for this. Hanamel, the son of your uncle Shallum, will come to you and tell you to buy his field in Anathoth, because the right of redemption is yours. So buy it.”

⁸ Then Hanamel my cousin came to me in the courtyard of the guard, just as the Lord had said, and he told me to buy his field in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, because the right to redeem it and take possession of it was mine. He told me to buy it for myself.

Then I knew that this was the word of the Lord. ⁹ I purchased the field in Anathoth from my cousin Hanamel. I weighed out for him seventeen shekels^[a] of silver.
