Jeremiah 42:2
Amplified Bible (AMP)
And said to Jeremiah the prophet, We beseech you that you will let our supplication be presented before you and that you will pray to the Lord your God for us, even for all this remnant [of the people of Judah]; for whereas we were once many, there are but a few of us left, as you see with your [own] eyes.— Jeremiah 42:2 (AMP)
