So all the officials and people who entered into this covenant agreed that they would free their male and female slaves and no longer hold them in bondage. They agreed, and set them free.

王和听见这一切话的臣仆都不惧怕，也不撕裂衣服。以利拿单和第莱雅，并基玛利雅恳求王不要烧这书卷，王却不听。

虽有这一切的事，她奸诈的妹妹犹大还不一心归向我，不过是假意归我。这是耶和华说的。”耶和华对我说：“背道的以色列比奸诈的犹大还显为义。

因为希律怕约翰，知道他是义人，是圣人，所以就保护他，虽然听了他的讲论十分困惑，仍然乐意听他。

于是官长们对王说：“求你把这人处死，因他向城里剩下的士兵和众人说这样的话，使他们的手发软。这人不是为这百姓求平安，而是叫他们受灾祸。”

主说：“因这百姓以口亲近我，用嘴唇尊敬我，心却远离我；他们敬畏我，不过是领受前人的命令。
