It was early in the morning. All the chief priests and the elders of the people planned how to put Jesus to death.

I hear many people whispering,“ There is terror on every side! Bring charges against Jeremiah! Let’s bring charges against him!” All my friends are waiting for me to slip. They are saying,“ Perhaps he will be tricked into making a mistake. Then we’ll win out over him. We’ll get even with him.”

“ You sent for terrors to come against me on every side. It was as if you were inviting people to enjoy a feast day. Because you were angry, no one escaped. No one was left alive. I took good care of my children and brought them up. But my enemies have destroyed them.”

One day Ahithophel said to Absalom,“ Here’s what I suggest. Choose 12,000 men. Start out tonight and go after David.Attack him while he’s tired and weak. Fill him with terror. Then all the people with him will run away. Don’t strike down anyone except the king.Bring all the other people back. After the man you want to kill is dead, everyone else will return to you. And none of the people will be harmed.”Ahithophel’s plan seemed good to Absalom. It also seemed good to all the elders of Israel.

But Saul threw his spear at Jonathan to kill him. Then Jonathan knew that his father wanted to kill David.

Saul tried to pin him to the wall with his spear. But David got away from him just as Saul drove the spear into the wall. That night David escaped.Saul sent some men to watch David’s house. He told them to kill David the next morning. But David’s wife Michal warned him. She said,“ You must run for your life tonight. If you don’t, tomorrow you will be killed.”So Michal helped David escape through a window. He ran and got away.Then Michal got a statue of a god. She laid it on David’s bed. She covered it with clothes. And she put some goat hair at the place where David’s head would have been.Saul sent the men to capture David. But Michal told them,“ He’s sick.”Then Saul sent the men back to see David. He told them,“ Bring him up here to me in his bed. Then I’ll kill him.”But when the men entered, the only thing they found in the bed was the statue. Some goat hair was at the place where David’s head would have been.Saul said to Michal,“ Why did you trick me like this? Why did you help my enemy escape?” Michal told him,“ He said to me,‘ Help me get away. If you don’t, I’ll kill you.’ ”

Is that why all of you have joined together against me? No one tells me when my son makes a covenant with Jesse’s son. None of you is concerned about me. No one tells me that my son has stirred up Jesse’s son to hide and wait to attack me. But that’s exactly what’s happening now.”Doeg was standing with Saul’s officials. He was from Edom. He said,“ I saw Jesse’s son David come to Ahimelek at Nob. Ahimelek is the son of Ahitub.Ahimelek asked the Lord a question for David. He also gave him food and the sword of Goliath, the Philistine.”

I had been like a gentle lamb led off to be killed. I didn’t realize they had made plans against me. They had said,“ Let’s destroy the tree and its fruit. Let’s take away his life. Then his name won’t be remembered anymore.”

Men who are like lions are all around me. I am forced to lie down among people who are like hungry animals. Their teeth are like spears and arrows. Their tongues are like sharp swords.

Don’t go out to the fields. Don’t walk on the roads. Our enemies have swords. And there is terror on every side.

Then the chief priests met with the elders of the people. They met in the palace of Caiaphas, the high priest.They made plans to arrest Jesus secretly. They wanted to kill him.

I will get rid of anyone who tells lies about their neighbor in secret. I won’t put up with anyone whose eyes and heart are proud.

Day and night they prowl around on top of its walls. The city is full of crime and trouble.

The people of Ziph went up to Saul at Gibeah. They said,“ David is hiding among us. He’s hiding in places of safety at Horesh. Horesh is south of Jeshimon on the hill of Hakilah.Your Majesty, come down when it pleases you to come. It will be our duty to hand David over to you.”

The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were looking for something to use against Jesus. They wanted to put him to death.

Help me, God. Men are chasing me. All day long they keep attacking me.My enemies chase me all day long. Many proud people are attacking me.When I’m afraid, I put my trust in you.

Then the whole group got up and led Jesus off to Pilate.They began to bring charges against Jesus. They said,“ We have found this man misleading our people. He is against paying taxes to Caesar. And he claims to be Messiah, a king.”

But they kept it up. They said,“ His teaching stirs up the people all over Judea. He started in Galilee and has come all the way here.”

He said to Saul,“ Why do you listen when men say,‘ David is trying to harm you’?

The next day Pashhur set him free. Jeremiah said to him,“ The Lord’ s name for you isn’t Pashhur. The Lord’ s name for you is Terror on Every Side.The Lord says to you,‘ I will make you a terror to yourself. You will also be a terror to all your friends. With your own eyes you will see them die. Their enemies will kill them with swords. I will hand over all the people of Judah to the king of Babylon. He will carry them away to Babylon or kill them with swords.
