5 Ed essi dissero a Geremia: Il Signore sia per testimonio verace e fedele tra noi, se noi non facciamo secondo tutto ciò che il Signore Iddio tuo ti avrà mandato a dirci.
6 O bene, o mal che sia, noi ubbidiremo alla voce del Signore Iddio nostro, al quale noi ti mandiamo; acciocchè bene ne avvenga, quando avremo ubbidito alla voce del Signore Iddio nostro.
