⁹ My lord the king, these men^◦ have done·​·evil in all that they have done to Jeremiah^◦ the prophet, whom they have cast into^▵ the pit; and he will die instead from the faces of hunger; for there is no more^◦ bread in the city.

²¹ And Zedekiah^◦ the king commanded that they should commit Jeremiah^◦ into the court of the prison^◦, and give to him for the day a loaf of bread from the street of the bakers, until all the bread from the city was finished. And Jeremiah^◦ dwelt in the court of the prison^◦.
