Jeremiah 37:11-13

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹¹ And when the army of the Chaldeans had departed from Jerusalem for fear of Pharaoh’s approaching army,

¹² Jeremiah went forth out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin [to slip away during the brief lull in the Chaldean invasion] to receive [the title to] his portion [of land, which the Lord had promised would eventually be valuable] there among the people.

¹³ And when he was at the Gate of Benjamin, a sentry was [on guard] there, whose name was Irijah son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah; and he seized Jeremiah the prophet, saying, You are deserting to the Chaldeans.
