Jeremiah 38:27

Then came all the princes unto Jeremiah, and asked him: and he told them according to all these words that the king had commanded. So they left off speaking with him; for the matter was not perceived.

KJV

Venerunt ergo omnes principes ad Jeremiam, et interrogaverunt eum, et locutus est eis juxta omnia verba quæ præceperat ei rex : et cessaverunt ab eo : nihil enim fuerat auditum.

Vulgate

διὰ τοῦτο ἰδοὺ ἡμέραι ἔρχονται, φησὶν Κύριος, καὶ σπερῶ τὸν Ἰσραὴλ καὶ τὸν Ἰουδά, σπέρμα ἀνθρώπου καὶ σπέρμα κτήνους.

LXX

Then came all the princes unto Jeremiah, and asked him; and he told them according to all these words that the king had commanded. So they left off speaking with him; for the matter was not perceived.
