Jeremiah 38:16

西底家王就私下向耶利米说：「我指着那造我们生命之永生的耶和华起誓：我必不杀你，也不将你交在寻索你命的人手中。」

xī dǐ jiā wáng jiù sī xià xiàng yē lì mǐ shuō ：「 wǒ zhǐ zhe nà zào wǒ men shēng mìng zhī yǒng shēng de yē hé huá qǐ shì ： wǒ bì bù shā nǐ ， yě bù jiāng nǐ jiāo zài xún suǒ nǐ mìng de rén shǒu zhōng 。」

So Zedekiah the king swore secretly to Jeremiah, saying, “As the LORD lives, who made our souls, I will not put you to death, neither will I give you into the hand of these men who seek your life.”
