¹¹ Now Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, gave orders about Jeremiah to Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, saying,

²¹ I will keep you safe from the hands of the evil-doers, and I will give you salvation from the hands of the cruel ones.

²³ And he gave orders to the captain to keep Paul under his control, and to let him have everything he had need of; and not to keep his friends from coming to see him.

¹⁹ He will keep you safe from six troubles, and in seven no evil will come near you.

¹¹ ...

² But he and his servants and the people of the land did not give ear to the words of the Lord which he said by Jeremiah the prophet.
