Jeremiah 37:18-20

Living Bible

¹⁸ Then Jeremiah broached the subject of his imprisonment. “What have I ever done to deserve this?” he asked the king. “What crime have I committed? Tell me what I have done against you or your officials or the people? ¹⁹ Where are those prophets now who told you that the king of Babylon would not come? ²⁰ Listen, O my lord the king: I beg you, don’t send me back to that dungeon, for I’ll die there.”
