Jeremiah 42:1-3 ▼

1 Then all the commanders of the military forces, Johanan the son of Kareah, Jezaniah the son of Hoshaiah, and all the people both small and great approached

2 and said to Jeremiah the prophet, “Please let our supplication come before you, and pray for us to Yahweh your God, that is for all this remnant, because we remain but a few out of many, as your own eyes now see us,

3 that Yahweh your God may tell us the way in which we should walk and the thing that we should do.”
