1This is the word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, which was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
2So the prophet Jeremiah spoke to all the people of Judah and all the residents of Jerusalem as follows:
3“From the thirteenth year of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah until this very day — twenty-three years — the word of the LORD has come to me, and I have spoken to you again and again, but you have not listened.
— Jeremiah 25:1-3
