Jeremiah 32:2-4

2 At that time, the army of the king of Babylon was besieging Jerusalem,(A) and the prophet Jeremiah was imprisoned in the guard’s courtyard(B) in the palace of the king of Judah. 3 King Zedekiah of Judah had imprisoned him, saying, “Why are you prophesying as you do? You say, ‘This is what the Lord says: Look, I am about to hand this city over to Babylon’s king, and he will capture it. 4 King Zedekiah of Judah will not escape from the Chaldeans; indeed, he will certainly be handed over to Babylon’s king. They will speak face to face[a] and meet eye to eye.(C)
