Jeremías 37:18 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 37:18

Moreover, Jeremiah said unto King Zedekiah
Having this opportunity with him alone, and perhaps observing the king was melted and softened with what he had said; however, finding liberty in his own mind, he enlarges his discourse, and freely expostulates with him in the following manner: what have I offended against thee, or against thy servants, or against
this people, that ye have put me in prison?
or, "what have I sinned?" have I been guilty of treason against thee, O king? or of scandal and defamation of any of thy nobles and courtiers? have I done any injury to any of the king's subjects? has there been any falsehood in my prophecies? has not everything appeared to be true that I have spoken, concerning the coming of the Chaldeans to invade the land, and besiege the city? and concerning the return of the Chaldean army when broken up? why then should I be cast into prison, and detained there? is it not a clear case that what I have said comes from the Lord? and therefore ought not to be used in this manner.

Jeremías 37:18 In-Context

16 Siendo, pues, entrado Jeremías en la casa de la mazmorra, y en las camarillas de la prisión y habiendo estado allá Jeremías por muchos días,
17 el rey Sedequías envió, y le sacó; y le preguntó el rey secretamente en su casa, y dijo: ¿Es palabra del SEÑOR? Y Jeremías dijo: Es. Y dijo más: En mano del rey de Babilonia serás entregado.
18 Dijo también Jeremías al rey Sedequías: ¿En qué pequé contra ti, y contra tus siervos, y contra este pueblo, para que me pusieseis en la casa de la cárcel?
19 ¿Y dónde están vuestros profetas que os profetizaban, diciendo: No vendrá el rey de Babilonia contra vosotros, ni contra esta tierra?
20 Ahora pues, oye, te ruego, mi señor el rey; caiga ahora mi súplica delante de ti, y no me hagas volver a casa de Jonatán escriba, para que no me muera allí.
