Jeremiah 27

The Iron Yoke of Babylon

¹Early in the reign of Zedekiah son of Josiah, king of Judah, this message came to Jeremiah from the Lord .[#27:1 The Hebrew reads Jehoiakim . The translation follows an alternate Hebrew reading. See also verse 3 and 28:1.]

²This is what the Lord said to me.

⁸The Lord also said:

¹²I also said all these things to Zedekiah king of Judah.

¹⁶I also spoke to the priests and to all of the people.
