⁴ So Jeremiah called Baruch^(A) son of Neriah,^(B) and while Jeremiah dictated^(C) all the words the Lord had spoken to him, Baruch wrote them on the scroll.^(D)

¹² and I gave this deed to Baruch^(A) son of Neriah,^(B) the son of Mahseiah, in the presence of my cousin Hanamel and of the witnesses who had signed the deed and of all the Jews sitting in the courtyard of the guard.

⁹ Then I looked, and I saw a hand^(A) stretched out to me. In it was a scroll,^(B)

³² So Jeremiah took another scroll and gave it to the scribe Baruch son of Neriah, and as Jeremiah dictated,^(A) Baruch wrote^(B) on it all the words of the scroll that Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned^(C) in the fire. And many similar words were added to them.

³ But Baruch^(A) son of Neriah is inciting you against us to hand us over to the Babylonians,^[a] so they may kill us or carry us into exile to Babylon.”^(B)

²² I, Tertius, who wrote down this letter, greet you in the Lord.

The Flying Scroll

5 I looked again, and there before me was a flying scroll.^(A)

A Message to Baruch

45 When Baruch^(A) son of Neriah^(B) wrote on a scroll^(C) the words Jeremiah the prophet dictated in the fourth year of Jehoiakim^(D) son of Josiah king of Judah, Jeremiah said this to Baruch: ² “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says to you, Baruch:

²⁸ “Take another scroll^(A) and write on it all the words that were on the first scroll, which Jehoiakim king of Judah burned up.

²⁶ Instead, the king commanded Jerahmeel, a son of the king, Seraiah son of Azriel and Shelemiah son of Abdeel to arrest^(A) Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet. But the Lord had hidden^(B) them.
