Jeremiah 42:2 in Context — Jeremiah 42

1 Então chegaram todos os comandantes dos exércitos, e Joanã filho de Careá, e Jezanias filho de Hosaías, e todo o povo desde o menor até o maior,

2 E disseram ao profeta Jeremias: Chegue, por favor, nossa suplicação diante de ti, e roga por nós ao SENHOR teu Deus, por todo este restante; pois de muitos restamos [apenas] uns poucos, como teus olhos nos veem,

3 Para que o SENHOR teu Deus nos ensine caminho por onde devemos andar, e o que temos de fazer.

4 E Jeremias profeta lhes disse: Eu ouvi. Eis que orarei ao SENHOR vosso Deus, conforme vossas palavras; e será que toda palavra que o SENHOR vos responder, eu vos anunciarei; não vos esconderei palavra alguma.
