Jeremiah 37:1-3

Christian Standard Bible

Jerusalem’s Last Days

37 Zedekiah son of Josiah^(A) reigned as king in the land of Judah^(B) in place of Coniah^[a](C) son of Jehoiakim, for King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon made him king. ² He and his officers and the people of the land did not obey the words of the Lord^(D) that he spoke through the prophet Jeremiah.

³ Nevertheless, King Zedekiah sent Jehucal^(E) son of Shelemiah and Zephaniah^(F) son of Maaseiah, the priest, to the prophet Jeremiah, requesting, “Please pray to the Lord our God on our behalf!”
