The King Burns Jeremiah’s Scroll
20 The officials[a] went to the king in the courtyard, but they deposited the scroll in the office of Elishama the scribe. Then they reported everything written on the scroll[b] to the king. 21 The king sent Jehudi to get the scroll, and he took it from the office of Elishama the scribe. Jehudi read it to the king[c] and to all the officials who were standing beside the king. 22 The king was sitting in the winter palace in the ninth month and a stove[d] was burning in front of him.[e]
