Jeremiah 26 · Grade 3
Don't Omit a Word
Read the Story
God told Jeremiah to stand in the court of God's house. He was to speak all the words God commanded. Don't omit a word. Maybe the people would listen and turn from their evil way.
Jeremiah warned that the temple could become like Shiloh, a place that had been ruined long before. The priests and prophets grabbed Jeremiah. They were very angry. The princes came to judge the case.
Jeremiah told them to amend their ways and obey God's voice. Then some elders spoke up. They remembered the prophet Micah. King Hezekiah had listened to Micah and turned to God. The princes said this man was not worthy of death. Ahikam son of Shaphan was with Jeremiah and kept him safe.
