Jeremiah 36:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah, and Baruch wrote [a]at the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord, which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll or book.
5 And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am [b]shut up, and cannot go into the House of the Lord.
6 Therefore go thou, and read the roll wherein thou hast written at my mouth the words of the Lord, in the audience of the people in the Lord’s house upon the [c]fasting day: also thou shalt read them in the hearing of all Judah, that come out of their cities.
