6 And Jeremiah said, The word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
7 Behold, Han´ameel the son of Shallum thine uncle shall come unto thee, saying, Buy thee my field that is in An´athoth: for the right of redemption is thine to buy it.
8 So Han´ameel mine uncle's son came to me in the court of the prison according to the word of the Lord, and said unto me, Buy my field, I pray thee, that is in An´athoth, which is in the country of Benjamin: for the right of inheritance is thine, and the redemption is thine; buy it for thyself. Then I knew that this was the word of the Lord.
9 And I bought the field of Han´ameel my uncle's son, that was in An´athoth, and weighed him the money, even seventeen shekels of silver.
10 And I subscribed the evidence, and sealed it, and took witnesses, and weighed him the money in the balances.
11 So I took the evidence of the purchase, both that which was sealed according to the law and custom, and that which was open:
12 and I gave the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neri´ah, the son of Ma-asei´ah, in the sight of Han´ameel mine uncle's son, and in the presence of the witnesses that subscribed the book of the purchase, before all the Jews that sat in the court of the prison.
