Jeremiah 26:20-23

Common English Bible

²⁰ There was another man who prophesied in the Lord’s name: Uriah, Shemaiah’s son from Kiriath-jearim. He prophesied the same things that Jeremiah did about this city and against this land. ²¹ When King Jehoiakim and all his warriors and officials heard his words, the king sought to kill him. Uriah heard of this and fled in fear to Egypt. ²² But King Jehoiakim dispatched Elnathan, Achbor’s son, and others to Egypt. ²³ They brought Uriah back from Egypt to the king who had him killed, and his body was thrown into the common burial ground.
