Jeremiah 36:5-7

International Standard Version

⁵ Jeremiah instructed Baruch, “I’m confined and can’t go to the Lord’s Temple. ⁶ You go and read the words of the Lord that you wrote at my dictation from the scroll. Read them^[a] to^[b] the people at the Lord’s Temple on the fast day. Also read them to all the people of Judah who are coming from their towns. ⁷ Perhaps their pleas for help will come to the Lord’s attention, and each of them will turn from his evil lifestyle in light of the great anger and wrath that the Lord has declared against this people.”
