God's promise of deliverance to Ebedmelech

Back to Bible Topic from Genesis to Revelation

Jer 39:15: Now the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, while he was shut up in the court of the prison, saying,

Jer 39:16: Go and speak to Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring my words upon this city for evil, and not for good; and they shall be accomplished in that day before thee.

Jer 39:17: But I will deliver thee in that day, saith the LORD: and thou shalt not be given into the hand of the men of whom thou art afraid.

Jer 39:18: For I will surely deliver thee, and thou shalt not fall by the sword, but thy life shall be for a prey unto thee: because thou hast put thy trust in me, saith the LORD.
