Jeremiah 36:5-7

New International Reader's Version

⁵ Then Jeremiah said to him, “I’m not allowed to go to the Lord’s temple. ⁶ So you go there. Go on a day when the people are fasting. Read to them from the scroll. Read the words of the Lord you wrote down as I gave them to you. Read them to all the people of Judah who come in from their towns. ⁷ They will hear what the Lord will do to them when his burning anger blazes out against them. Then perhaps they will pray to him. And maybe each of them will turn from their evil ways.”
