Jeremiah 26:20-23
Legacy Standard Bible
20 Indeed, there was also a man who prophesied in the name of Yahweh, Uriah the son of Shemaiah from (A)Kiriath-jearim; and he prophesied against this city and against this land words similar to all those of Jeremiah. 21 And King Jehoiakim and all his mighty men and all the officials heard his words. So the (B)king sought to put him to death; but Uriah heard it, and he was afraid and (C)fled and went to Egypt. 22 Then King Jehoiakim sent men to Egypt: (D)Elnathan the son of Achbor and certain men with him went into Egypt. 23 And they brought Uriah out from Egypt and led him to King Jehoiakim, who (E)struck him down with a sword and cast his dead body into the [a]burial place of the [b]common people.

But Uriah heard, and he was afraid, and he fled and went to Egypt. 22 Then King Jehoiakim sent men to Egypt. Elnathan, the son of Achbor, and men with him went to Egypt. 23 And they brought out Uriah from Egypt and they brought him to King Jehoiakim, and he struck him down with the sword, and he threw his dead body into the burial sites of the sons of the people.
