Jeremiah 26:19
Douay-Rheims
Did Ezechias king of Juda, and all Juda, condemn him to death? did they not fear the Lord, and beseech the face of the Lord: and the Lord repented of the evil that they had spoken against them? therefore we are doing a great evil against our souls.
Rashi
and he entreated Heb. וַיְחַל, an expression of prayer.
but we are doing great harm to ourselves if we kill him.
Hebrew and Aramaic words are the commentator’s citations of the sacred text; the English translation that follows each is the translator’s.
