Jeremiah 26:10-13
Contemporary English Version
10 The royal officers heard what had happened, and they came from the palace to the new gate of the temple to be the judges at my trial.[a] 11 While they listened, the priests and the prophets said to the crowd, “All of you have heard Jeremiah prophesy that Jerusalem will be destroyed. He deserves the death penalty.”
12-13 Then I told the judges and everyone else:
The Lord himself sent me to tell you about the terrible things he will do to you, to Jerusalem, and to the temple. But if you change your ways and start obeying the Lord, he will change his mind.
