Jeremiah 36:5-7

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁵ And Jeremias commanded Baruch, saying: I am shut up, and cannot go into the house of the Lord.

⁶ Go thou in therefore, and read out of the volume, which thou hast written from my mouth, the words of the Lord, in the hearing of all the people in the house of the Lord on the fasting day: and also thou shalt read them in the hearing of all Juda that come out of their cities:

⁷ If so be they may present their supplication before the Lord, and may return every one from his wicked way: for great is the wrath and indignation which the Lord hath pronounced against this people.
