我必不長久控訴，也不永遠懷怒，因為我雖使靈性發昏，我也造了人的氣息。

西底家王差人提他出來，在自己的宮內私下問他說：「有甚麼話從耶和華臨到沒有？」耶利米說：「有！」又說：「你必被交在巴比倫王手中。」

摩西、亞倫臉伏於地，說：「上帝，賜萬人氣息的上帝啊，一人犯罪，你就要向全會眾發怒嗎？」

這人夜裏來見耶穌，對他說：「拉比，我們知道你是由上帝那裏來作老師的；因為你所行的神蹟，若沒有上帝同在，無人能行。」

「願耶和華，賜萬人氣息的上帝，立一個人治理會眾，

瑪坦的兒子示法提雅、巴施戶珥的兒子基大利、示利米雅的兒子猶甲、瑪基雅的兒子巴示戶珥聽見耶利米對眾百姓所說的話，說：「耶和華如此說：留在這城裏的必遭刀劍、饑荒、瘟疫而死，但歸向迦勒底人的必得存活；至少能保全自己的性命，得以存活。耶和華如此說：這城必要交在巴比倫王軍隊的手中，他必攻下這城。」於是官長們對王說：「求你把這人處死，因他向城裏剩下的士兵和眾人說這樣的話，使他們的手發軟。這人不是為這百姓求平安，而是叫他們受災禍。」西底家王說：「看哪，他在你們手中，王不能反對你們所做的事。」他們就拿住耶利米，把他丟在王的兒子瑪基雅的井裏；那口井在護衛兵的院中。他們用繩子把耶利米縋下去，井裏沒有水，只有淤泥，耶利米就陷在淤泥中。

耶和華的默示，他的話論到以色列。鋪張諸天、建立地基、造人裏面之靈的耶和華說：

我必將他們交在仇敵和尋索其命的人手中；他們的屍首必給空中的飛鳥和地上的走獸作食物。

塵土仍歸於地，像原來一樣，氣息仍歸於賜氣息的上帝。

那創造諸天，鋪張穹蒼，鋪開地與地的出產，賜氣息給地上眾人，賜生命給行走其上之人的上帝耶和華如此說：

再者，我們曾有肉身之父管教我們，我們尚且敬重他，何況靈性之父，我們豈不更當順服他而得生命嗎？
