The captains of the forces and all the people ask Jeremiah the prophet to pray for the remnant
모든 군대의 장관과 백성이 선지자 예레미야에게 남은 자를 위하여 기도하기를 구함
Jeremiah 42:1–6: then all the captains of the forces, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Jezaniah the son of Hoshaiah, and all the people from the least even to the greatest, come near, and say to Jeremiah the prophet, “Please let our supplication be presented before you, and pray for us to the LORD your God, even for all this remnant, for we are left but a few of many, as your eyes see us, that the LORD your God may show us the way in which we should walk, and the things that we should do.” Then Jeremiah the prophet says to them, “I have heard you. Behold, I will pray to the LORD your God according to your words; and it will happen that whatever thing the LORD answers you, I will declare it to you. I will keep nothing back from you.” Then they say to Jeremiah, “May the LORD be a true and faithful witness among us, if we don’t do according to all the word with which the LORD your God sends you to tell us. Whether it is good, or whether it is bad, we will obey the voice of the LORD our God, to whom we send you; that it may be well with us, when we obey the voice of the LORD our God.” The Korean Revised Version reads 42:5 as a promise followed by a plea (우리가 당신의 하나님 여호와께서 당신을 보내사 우리에게 이르시는 모든 말씀대로 행하리이다 여호와는 우리 중에 진실무망한 증인이 되시옵소서, they will do according to all the word …, and the LORD is asked to be a true witness among them), where WEB reads “May the LORD be a true and faithful witness among us, if we don’t do according to all the word”.
