15 δια τι εφυγεν ο απις ο μοσχος ο εκλεκτος σου ουκ εμεινεν οτι κυριος παρελυσεν αυτον	15 But be sure of this, that if you put me to death, you wil be bringing innocent blood on yourselves, onthis city and on its inhabitants, since Yahweh has truly sent me to you to say al this for you to hear.'

19 σκευη αποικισμου ποιησον σεαυτη κατοικουσα θυγατερ αιγυπτου οτι μεμφις εις αφανισμον εσται και κληθησεται ουαι δια το μη υπαρχειν κατοικουντας εν αυτη	19 'Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him to death for this? Did they not rather, fearingYahweh, plead with him, to such effect that Yahweh relented about the disaster which he had decreed for them?Are we now to burden our souls with such a crime?'
20 δαμαλις κεκαλλωπισμενη αιγυπτος αποσπασμα απο βορρα ηλθεν επ' αυτην	20 There was another man, too, who used to prophesy in Yahweh's name, Uriah son of Shemaiah, fromKiriath-Jearim. He prophesied exactly the same things against this city and this country as Jeremiah.

27 συ δε μη φοβηθης δουλος μου ιακωβ μηδε πτοηθης ισραηλ διοτι ιδου εγω σωζων σε μακροθεν και το σπερμα σου εκ της αιχμαλωσιας αυτων και αναστρεψει ιακωβ και ησυχασει και υπνωσει και ουκ εσται ο παρενοχλων αυτον
