After the king had burned the scroll with the words which Baruch wrote at Jeremiah's dictation, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah. Take another scroll and write on it all the former words that were in the first scroll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah has burned.

Concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah you shall say, says the lord, you have burned this scroll, saying, why have you written in it that the king of Babylon will certainly come and destroy this land, and will cut off from it man and beast?

Says the lord concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah, he shall have none to sit upon the throne of David, and his dead body shall be cast out to the heat by day and the frost by night.

I will punish him and his offspring and his servant for their iniquity, I will bring upon them, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them, but they would not hear.

Then Jeremiah took another scroll and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who wrote on it at the dictation of Jeremiah Al the words of the scroll which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire, and many similar words were added to them.
