Jeremiah 36:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ So I want you to go to the ·Temple [^Lhouse] of the Lord on a day when the people are fasting. Read from the scroll ·to [^Lin the ears of] all the people of Judah who come into Jerusalem from their towns. Read the messages from the Lord, which are the words you wrote on the scroll ·as I spoke them to you [^Lfrom my mouth]. ⁷ Perhaps ·they will ask the Lord to help them [^Ltheir supplications will fall before the Lord]. Perhaps each one will ·stop doing wicked things [^Lturn from their evil ways], because the Lord has announced that he is very angry with them.” ⁸ So Baruch son of Neriah did everything Jeremiah the prophet ·told [^Lcommanded] him to do. In the Lord’s ·Temple [^Lhouse] he read aloud the scroll that had the Lord’s messages written on it.
