Jeremiah 36:5-7
New American Bible (Revised Edition)

5 Then Jeremiah commanded Baruch: “I cannot enter the house of the Lord; I am barred[a] from it. 6 So you yourself must go. On a fast day in the hearing of the people in the Lord’s house, read the words of the Lord from the scroll you wrote at my dictation; read them also to all the people of Judah who come up from their cities. 7 Perhaps they will present their supplication before the Lord and will all turn back from their evil way; for great is the anger and wrath with which the Lord has threatened this people.”(A)
