26 The king told his son Jerahmeel to take Seraiah and Shelemiah and to go and arrest Baruch and me. But the Lord kept them from finding us.
27 I had told Baruch what to write on that first scroll, but King Jehoiakim had burnt it. So the Lord told me
28 to get another scroll and write down everything that had been on the first one.
29 Then he told me to say to King Jehoiakim:Not only did you burn Jeremiah's scroll, you had the nerve to ask why he had written that the king of Babylonia would attack and ruin the land, killing all the people and even the animals.
30 So I, the Lord, promise that you will be killed and your body thrown out on the ground. The sun will beat down on it during the day, and the frost will settle on it at night. And none of your descendants will ever be king of Judah.
31 You, your children, and your servants are evil, and I will punish all of you. I warned you and the people of Judah and Jerusalem that I would bring disaster, but none of you have listened. So now you are doomed!
32 After the Lord finished speaking to me, I got another scroll and gave it to Baruch. Then I told him what to write, so this second scroll would contain even more than was on the scroll Jehoiakim had burnt.
