Jeremiah’s Scroll Read in the Temple

36 In the fourth year of the reign of[a] Josiah’s son King Jehoiakim of Judah, this message came to Jeremiah from the Lord: “Take a scroll and write on it all the words that I’ve spoken to you about Israel, about Judah, and about all the nations, since I first spoke to you[b] in the time of Josiah until the present time. Perhaps the house of Judah will hear about all the calamity that I’m planning to bring on them, and so each of them will turn from his wicked way and I’ll forgive their iniquities and sins.”
