Jeremiah 36:1-3

Good News Translation

Baruch Reads the Scroll in the Temple

36 ^(A)In the fourth year that Jehoiakim son of Josiah was king of Judah, the Lord said to me, ² “Get a scroll and write on it everything that I have told you about Israel and Judah and all the nations. Write everything that I have told you from the time I first spoke to you, when Josiah was king, up to the present. ³ Perhaps when the people of Judah hear about all the destruction that I intend to bring on them, they will turn from their evil ways. Then I will forgive their wickedness and their sins.”
