19 Les chefs dirent à Baruc: Va, cache-toi, ainsi que Jérémie, et que personne ne sache où vous êtes.

20 Ils allèrent ensuite vers le roi dans la cour, laissant le livre dans la chambre d’Élischama, le secrétaire, et ils en rapportèrent toutes les paroles aux oreilles du roi.

21 Le roi envoya Jehudi pour prendre le livre, Jehudi le prit dans la chambre d’Élischama, le secrétaire, et il le lut aux oreilles du roi et aux oreilles de tous les chefs qui étaient auprès du roi.

22 Le roi était assis dans la maison d’hiver, c’était au neuvième mois, et un brasier était allumé devant lui.
