Jeremiah 37:11-13

New Catholic Bible

¹¹ When the Chaldean army had withdrawn from their attack on Jerusalem after they learned of the approach of Pharaoh’s army, ¹² Jeremiah set out from Jerusalem for the territory of Benjamin to take possession of his share of a piece of property that he had inherited. ¹³ However, when he reached the Benjamin Gate, he encountered there the captain of the guard whose name was Irijah, the son of Shemaliah, the son of Hananiah. Irijah arrested the prophet Jeremiah, saying, “You are deserting to the Chaldeans.”
