Bible: Jeremiah 22:11-12; 44:2-6

22:11‘For the Lord has spoken about Shallum son of Josiah, who succeeded his father as king of Judah but was carried off into exile. He has said, “He will never return to this land. 1  22:12 For he will die in the country where they took him as a captive. He will never see this land again.” 2 

44:2 Then put 1  my cup – the silver cup – in the mouth of the youngest one’s sack, along with the money for his grain.” He did as Joseph instructed. 2 

44:3 When morning came, 3  the men and their donkeys were sent off. 4  44:4 They had not gone very far from the city 5  when Joseph said 6  to the servant who was over his household, “Pursue the men at once! 7  When you overtake 8  them, say to them, ‘Why have you repaid good with evil? 44:5 Doesn’t my master drink from this cup 9  and use it for divination? 10  You have done wrong!’ 11 

44:6 When the man 12  overtook them, he spoke these words to them.
