Jeremiah 42:5 in Context — Jeremiah 42
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.
5 Então eles disseram a Jeremias: O SENHOR seja entre nós testemunha da verdade e da fidelidade, se não fizermos conforme a toda palavra com que o SENHOR teu Deus te enviar a nós.
6 Seja bem ou seja mal, obedeceremos à voz do SENHOR nosso Deus, ao qual te enviamos; para que, obedecendo à voz do SENHOR nosso Deus, tenhamos bem.
7 E aconteceu que ao fim de dez dias veio a palavra do SENHOR a Jeremias.
