## Jeremiah 42:1 in Context (Verses 1–4 KJV)
 
 [1 ](/kjv/jeremiah/42/1) Then all the captains of the forces, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Jezaniah the son of Hoshaiah, and all the people from the least even unto the greatest, came near,
 
 [2 ](/kjv/jeremiah/42/2) And said unto Jeremiah the prophet, Let, we beseech thee, our supplication be accepted before thee, and pray for us unto the LORD thy God, *even* for all this remnant; (for we are left *but* a few of many, as thine eyes do behold us:)*
 
 [3 ](/kjv/jeremiah/42/3) That the LORD thy God may shew us the way wherein we may walk, and the thing that we may do.
 
 [4 ](/kjv/jeremiah/42/4) Then Jeremiah the prophet said unto them, I have heard *you;* behold, I will pray unto the LORD your God according to your words; and it shall come to pass, *that* whatsoever thing the LORD shall answer you, I will declare *it* unto you; I will keep nothing back from you.
