Zedekiah Sends for Jeremiah
14 Then King Zedekiah (A)sent and [a]had Jeremiah the prophet brought to him at the third entrance that is in the house of Yahweh; and the king said to Jeremiah, “I am going to (B)ask you something; do not hide anything from me.” 15 Then Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, “(C)If I tell you, will you not certainly put me to death? Besides, if I give you counsel, you will not listen to me.” 16 But King Zedekiah swore to Jeremiah in (D)secret saying, “As Yahweh lives, who made this [b](E)life for us, surely I will not put you to death, nor will I give you over to the hand of (F)these men who are seeking your [c]life.”

Lexham English Bible
14 And Zedekiah the king sent and made someone bring Jeremiah the prophet to him, to the third entrance that was at the temple[a] of Yahweh. And the king said to Jeremiah, “I am asking you something,[b] you must not hide anything[c] from me.” 15 And Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, “If I tell you, will you not surely kill me? Besides,[d] if I advise you, you will not listen to me. 16 So Zedekiah the king swore to Jeremiah in secret, saying,[e] “As Yahweh lives,[f] who has made for us this life, I will not kill you and I will not give you into the hand of these men who are seeking your life.”
