Jeremiah and Pashhur

20 When the priest Pashhur son of Immer,^(A) the official^(B) in charge of the temple of the Lord, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things, ² he had Jeremiah the prophet beaten^(C) and put in the stocks^(D) at the Upper Gate of Benjamin^(E) at the Lord’s temple. ³ The next day, when Pashhur released him from the stocks, Jeremiah said to him, “The Lord’s name^(F) for you is not Pashhur, but Terror on Every Side.^{(G) 4} For this is what the Lord says: ‘I will make you a terror to yourself and to all your friends; with your own eyes^(H) you will see them fall by the sword of their enemies. I will give^(I) all Judah into the hands of the king of Babylon, who will carry^(J) them away to Babylon or put them to the sword. ⁵ I will deliver all the wealth^(K) of this city into the hands of their enemies—all its products, all its valuables and all the treasures of the kings of Judah. They will take it away^(L) as plunder and carry it off to Babylon. ⁶ And you, Pashhur, and all who live in your house will go into exile to Babylon. There you will die and be buried, you and all your friends to whom you have prophesied^(M) lies.’”

⁵³ When Jesus went outside, the Pharisees and the teachers of the law began to oppose him fiercely and to besiege him with questions, ⁵⁴ waiting to catch him in something he might say.^(A)

Warnings and Encouragements^(B)

12 Meanwhile, when a crowd of many thousands had gathered, so that they were trampling on one another, Jesus began to speak first to his disciples, saying: “Be^[a] on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.^{(C) 2} There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known.^{(D) 3} What you have said in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from the roofs.
