犹大王约西亚的儿子约雅敬第四年，耶和华那里有这话临到耶利米，说：

当着我叔叔的儿子哈拿篾眼前，当着那些在买卖契约上签名作证的人眼前，以及当着所有坐在卫兵院子里的犹大人眼前，我把买卖契约交给了玛西雅的孙子、尼利亚的儿子巴录。

于是耶利米把尼利亚的儿子巴录叫了来，巴录就从耶利米口中，把耶和华向耶利米所说的一切话，都写在书卷上。

于是耶利米取了另一卷书卷，交给尼利亚的儿子文士巴录；巴录就从耶利米的口中，把犹大王约雅敬在火中烧掉的那书上的一切话，都写在书卷上，还加上很多类似的话。

“我把买卖契约交给尼利亚的儿子巴录以后，就向耶和华祷告，说：

犹大王约西亚的儿子约雅敬第四年，就是巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒第一年，有话临到耶利米，是关于犹大众民的。

约雅敬登基的时候，是二十五岁；他在耶路撒冷作王共十一年，行耶和华他的神看为恶的事。

犹大王约西亚的儿子约雅敬开始执政的时候，有这话从耶和华那里临到耶利米，说：

尼利亚的儿子巴录就照着耶利米先知吩咐的一切去行，在耶和华的殿里宣读书上耶和华的话。犹大王约西亚的儿子约雅敬第五年九月，耶路撒冷的众民，和所有从犹大各城来到耶路撒冷的人民，都在耶和华面前宣告禁食。

于是所有的领袖差派古示的曾孙、示利米雅的孙子、尼探雅的儿子犹底，去见巴录，说：“请你把向众人宣读的那书卷亲自拿来。”尼利亚的儿子巴录就把书卷亲自带到他们那里。他们对他说：“请坐下，念给我们听。”巴录就向他们宣读。他们听见这一切话，就惊惧起来，面面相觑，对巴录说：“我们必须把这一切话禀告王。”他们向巴录说：“请告诉我们，你怎样写下这一切话，是耶利米亲口说的吗？”巴录对他们说：“这一切话是他亲口向我讲述的，我就用墨写在书上。”

更吩咐王子耶拉篾、亚次列的儿子西莱雅和亚伯叠的儿子示利米雅，去捉拿文士巴录和耶利米先知；但耶和华把他们隐藏起来。

只是尼利亚的儿子巴录怂恿你来反对我们，为要把我们交在迦勒底人的手中，好使我们被杀害，或被掳到巴比伦去。”于是加利亚的儿子约哈难和众将领，以及众民，都不听从耶和华要他们留在犹大地的命令。相反地，加利亚的儿子约哈难和众将领却率领犹大所有余剩的人，就是那些从被赶逐到各国回来住在犹大地的，包括男人、女人、孩童和王的众公主，以及护卫长尼布撒拉旦留给沙番的孙子、亚希甘的儿子基大利管理的众人，还有耶利米先知和尼利亚的儿子巴录，
