Jeremiah 38:9 in Context — Jeremiah 38
7 E Ebede-Meleque, o cuxita, um eunuco que estava na casa do rei, tendo ouvido que haviam posto Jeremias na cisterna, e estando o rei sentado à porta de Benjamim,
8 Logo Ebede-Meleque saiu da casa do rei, e falou ao rei, dizendo:
9 Ó rei, meu senhor o rei, estes homens fizeram o mal em tudo quanto têm feito com o profeta Jeremias, ao qual lançaram na cisterna; porque ali ele morrerá de fome, pois não há mais pão na cidade.
10 Então o rei mandou a Ebede-Meleque, o cuxita, dizendo: Toma sob tuas ordens trinta homens daqui, e tira ao profeta Jeremias da cisterna, antes que morra.
11 E Ebede-Meleque tomou sob suas ordens os homens, e foi à casa do rei, ao lugar debaixo da tesouraria, e tomou dali trapos velhos rasgados, e trapos velhos gastos; e os desceu a Jeremias com cordas na cisterna.
