Jeremiah 38:24-26

New International Version - UK

²⁴ Then Zedekiah said to Jeremiah, ‘Do not let anyone know about this conversation, or you may die. ²⁵ If the officials hear that I talked with you, and they come to you and say, “Tell us what you said to the king and what the king said to you; do not hide it from us or we will kill you,” ²⁶ then tell them, “I was pleading with the king not to send me back to Jonathan’s house to die there.”’
