Jeremiah 40:1-3

New Life Version

Jeremiah Free to Go

40 This is the word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord after Nebuzaradan, captain of the prison soldiers, had let him go from Ramah. He had taken him there in chains with all the other people of Jerusalem and Judah who were being taken to Babylon. ² The captain of the prison soldiers took Jeremiah and said to him, “The Lord your God promised this trouble against this place. ³ The Lord has brought it about, and has done just as He promised. This thing has happened to you because you people sinned against the Lord and did not listen to Him.
