15 The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah (A)while he was shut up in the court of the guard: 16 “Go, and say to (B)Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: (C)Behold, I will fulfill my words against this city for harm and (D)not for good, and they shall be accomplished before you on that day. 17 But I will deliver you on that day, declares the Lord, and you shall not be given into the hand of the men (E)of whom you are afraid. 18 For I will surely save you, and you shall not fall by the sword, but you shall have your (F)life as a prize of war, (G)because you have put your trust in me, declares the Lord.’”

15 Now the word of the Lord had come to Jeremiah when he was confined in the guard’s courtyard:(A) 16 “Go tell Ebed-melech the Cushite:(B) This is what the Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: I am about to fulfill My words for harm and not for good against this city. They will take place before your eyes on that day. 17 But I will rescue you on that day”—this is the Lord’s declaration—“and you will not be handed over to the men you fear. 18 Indeed, I will certainly deliver you so that you do not fall by the sword. Because you have trusted in Me, you will keep your life like the spoils of war.”(C) This is the Lord’s declaration.
