5 “Here he is,” replied King Zedekiah (YHWH is righteous). “He is in your⁺ hands, since the king can do nothing to stop you⁺.” 6 So they took Jeremiah (whom YHWH has appointed) and dropped him into the cistern of Malchiah (my king is YHWH), the king’s son, which was in the courtyard of the guard. They lowered Jeremiah with ropes into the cistern, which had no water but only mud, and Jeremiah sank down into the mud. Jeremiah 38:5-6, Berean Annotated Bible. Public domain.
