And Jeremiah said, “The word of the Lord came to me, saying, ‘Behold, Hanamel the son of Shallum your uncle is coming to you, saying, “Buy for yourself my field which is at (A)Anathoth, for you have the (B)right of redemption to buy it.”’ Then my uncle’s son Hanamel came to me in the (C)courtyard of the guard in accordance with the word of the Lord and said to me, ‘Buy my field, please, that is at (D)Anathoth, which is in the land of Benjamin; for you have the right of possession and the redemption is yours; buy it for yourself.’ Then I knew that this was the (E)word of the Lord.

“So I bought the field which was in Anathoth from Hanamel my uncle’s son, and I (F)weighed out the silver for him, seventeen (G)shekels of silver. 10 And I [a](H)signed and (I)sealed the deed, and (J)called in witnesses, and weighed out the silver on the scales. 11 Then I took the deeds of purchase, both the sealed copy containing the (K)terms and conditions and the open copy; 12 and I gave the deed of purchase to (L)Baruch the son of (M)Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, in the sight of Hanamel my uncle’s son and in the sight of the witnesses who signed the deed of purchase, in the sight of all the Jews who were sitting in the courtyard of the guard.

So I bought the field from Hanamel, the son of my uncle who was in Anathoth, and (B)weighed out to him the money—seventeen shekels of silver. 10 And I signed the [a]deed and sealed it, took witnesses, and weighed the money on the scales. 11 So I took the purchase deed, both that which was sealed according to the law and custom, and that which was open; 12 and I gave the purchase deed to (C)Baruch the son of Neriah, son of Mahseiah, in the presence of Hanamel my uncle’s son, and in the presence of the (D)witnesses who signed the purchase deed, before all the Jews who sat in the court of the prison.
