Chapter 38

KJV - Jeremiah 38:17

Then said Jeremiah unto Zedekiah, Thus saith the LORD, the God of hosts, the God of Israel; If thou wilt assuredly go forth unto the king of Babylon’s princes, then thy soul shall live, and this city shall not be burned with fire; and thou shalt live, and thine house:

Then Jeremiah told Zedekiah, "God says, 'If you promise to go meet the leaders of the king of Babylon, your life will be saved, and this city won't be destroyed by fire. You and your family will be safe.'"
