“Then took they Jeremiah, and cast him into the dungeon of Malchiah the son of Hammelech, that was in the court of the prison: and they let down Jeremiah with cords. And in the dungeon there was no water, but mire: so Jeremiah sunk in the mire.”
The consequence: 'So they took Jeremiah and cast him into the cistern of Malchiah.' The prophet is placed in a death trap—a muddy, waterless cistern. Those who speak God's truth face life-threatening persecution.
