Jeremiah’s Scroll Read in the Temple
36 Now it happened that in the (A)fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying, 2 “Take a (B)scroll of a book and write on it all the (C)words which I have spoken to you concerning (D)Israel and concerning Judah and concerning all the (E)nations, from the (F)day I first spoke to you, from the days of Josiah, even to this day. 3 (G)Perhaps the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I devise [a]to bring on them, in order that every man will (H)turn from his evil way; then I will (I)forgive their iniquity and their sin.”
4 Then Jeremiah called (J)Baruch the son of Neriah, and Baruch wrote on a [b](K)scroll [c]at the dictation of Jeremiah all the words of Yahweh which He had spoken to him. 5 And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, “I am [d](L)confined; I cannot go into the house of Yahweh. 6 So you shall go and (M)read from the scroll, which you have (N)written [e]at my dictation, the words of Yahweh [f]in the hearing of the people in the house of Yahweh on a (O)fast day. And also you shall read them in the hearing of all the people of Judah who come from their cities. 7 (P)Perhaps their supplication will [g]come before Yahweh, and everyone will turn from his evil way, for (Q)great is the anger and the wrath that Yahweh has spoken against this people.” 8 So Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, (R)reading from the book the words of Yahweh in the house of Yahweh.
9 Now it happened in the (S)fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the (T)ninth month, that all the people in Jerusalem and all the people who (U)came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem called for a (V)fast before Yahweh. 10 Then Baruch read from the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of Yahweh in the (W)chamber of (X)Gemariah the son of Shaphan the (Y)scribe, in the upper court, at the (Z)entry of the New Gate of the house of Yahweh, in the hearing of all the people.

Jeremiah’s Scroll Read in the Temple
36 In the (A)fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying, 2 “Take a [a](B)scroll and write on it all the (C)words which I have spoken to you concerning (D)Israel, Judah, and all the (E)nations, from the (F)day I first spoke to you, from the days of Josiah, even to this day. 3 (G)Perhaps the house of Judah will listen to all the disaster which I plan to carry out against them, so that every person will (H)turn from his evil way; then I will (I)forgive their wrongdoing and their sin.”
4 Then Jeremiah called (J)Baruch the son of Neriah, and Baruch wrote on a [b](K)scroll [c]at the dictation of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord which He had spoken to him. 5 Jeremiah then commanded Baruch, saying, “I am [d](L)restricted; I cannot go into the house of the Lord. 6 So you go and (M)read from the scroll, which you have (N)written [e]at my dictation, the words of the Lord [f]to the people at the Lord’s house on a day of (O)fasting. And you shall also read them [g]to all the people of Judah who come from their cities. 7 (P)Perhaps their pleading will [h]come before the Lord, and everyone will turn from his evil way; for (Q)great is the anger and the wrath that the Lord has pronounced against this people.” 8 So Baruch the son of Neriah acted in accordance with all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, (R)reading from the book the words of the Lord in the Lord’s house.
9 Now in the (S)fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the (T)ninth month, all the people in Jerusalem and all the people who (U)came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem proclaimed a (V)fast before the Lord. 10 Then Baruch read to all the people from the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the Lord in the (W)chamber of (X)Gemariah the son of Shaphan the (Y)scribe, in the upper courtyard, at the (Z)entry of the New Gate of the Lord’s house.
