14Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, Take in your hand the scroll in which you have read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah took the scroll in his hand, and came to them.
15They said to him, Sit down now, and read it in our ears. So Baruch read it in their ears.
16Now it happened, when they had heard all the words, they turned in fear one toward another, and said to Baruch, We will surely tell the king of all these words.
17They asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, How did you write all these words at his mouth?
18Then Baruch answered them, He pronounced all these words to me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.
19Then said the princes to Baruch, Go, hide you, you and Jeremiah; and let no man know where you are.
20They went in to the king into the court; but they had laid up the scroll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe; and they told all the words in the ears of the king.
