The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord
The word of prophecy, as the Targum, concerning Jeremiah's buying the field of his uncle's son, ( Jeremiah 32:6 ) ; and concerning the delivery of the city of Jerusalem into the hands of the Chaldeans, ( Jeremiah 32:26 ) ; and the return of the captivity, ( Jeremiah 32:36 ) ; in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which [was] the eighteenth

Yirmeyah 32:1 In-Context

1 2 The Davar that came to Yirmeyah from Hashem in the tenth year of Tzidkiyah Melech Yehudah, which was the eighteenth year of Nevuchadretzar.

2 For then the army of Melech Bavel besieged Yerushalayim; and Yirmeyah HaNavi was imprisoned in the Khatzer (courtyard) of the Guard, which was in Bais Melech Yehudah.

3 For Tzidkiyah Melech Yehudah had imprisoned him, saying, Why dost thou prophesy, and say, Thus saith Hashem, Hineni, I will give this city into the yad Melech Bavel, and he shall capture it;

4 And Tzidkiyah Melech Yehudah shall not escape out of the yad of the Kasdim (Chaldeans), but shall surely be delivered into the yad Melech Bavel, and shall speak with him mouth to mouth, and his eynayim shall behold his eynayim;

5 And he shall lead Tzidkiyah to Bavel, and there shall he be until I visit him, saith Hashem; though ye fight against the Kasdim (Chaldeans), ye shall not succeed.
