Jeremiah 21:1-2

This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD when King Zedekiah sent Pashhur  son of Malchijah and the priest Zephaniah  son of Maaseiah to Jeremiah, asking, “Inquire of the LORD on our behalf, since King Nebuchadnezzar  , of Babylon is making war against us. Perhaps the LORD will perform for us something like all his past wondrous works so that Nebuchadnezzar will withdraw from us.”
