15 And the princes+ began to get indignant at Jeremiah,+ and they struck him+ and put him into the house of fetters,+ in the house of Je·honʹa·than+ the secretary, for this was what they had made the house of detention.+

20 And now listen, please, O my lord the king. May my request for favor,+ please, fall before you, and do not send me back to the house of Je·honʹa·than+ the secretary, that I may not die there.”+
