Jeremiah 34:9 in Context — Jeremiah 34

7 Enquanto o exército do rei de Babilônia lutava contra Jerusalém e contra todas as cidades de Judá que haviam restado: contra Laquis, e contra Azeca; pois essas cidades fortificadas haviam restado dentre as cidades de Judá.

8 Palavra que veio do SENHOR a Jeremias, depois que o rei Zedequias fez um pacto com todo o povo em Jerusalém, para lhes proclamar liberdade;

9 Que cada um libertasse seu servo, e cada um sua serva, hebreu ou hebreia; de maneira que ninguém usasse dos seus irmãos judeus como servos.

10 E atenderam todos os príncipes, e todo o povo, que entraram no pacto de cada um libertar a seu servo e cada um libertar sua serva, de maneira que ninguém usasse mais deles como servos, atenderam, e os liberaram.

11 Porém depois se arrependeram, e trouxeram de volta os servos e as servas que haviam libertado, e os sujeitaram para serem servos e servas.
