But know ye for certain, that if ye put me to death, ye shall surely bring innocent blood upon yourselves, and upon this city, and upon the inhabitants thereof: for of a truth the LORD hath sent me unto you to speak all these words in your ears.

The verse 15 is found in chapter 26 of Jeremiah. Jeremiah again announces in the temple that repentance can prevent disaster. The priests and prophets want to kill him because of his words, but some remember that Micah also announced judgment during the days of Hezekiah. The episode shows that the prophetic word should be evaluated by its faithfulness, not silenced through violence.

Doch sollt ihr wissen: wo ihr mich tötet, so werdet ihr unschuldig Blut laden auf euch selbst, auf diese Stadt und ihre Einwohner. Denn wahrlich, der HERR hat mich zu euch gesandt, daß ich solches alles vor euren Ohren reden soll.
Mas sabed de cierto que, si me matareis, sangre inocente echaréis sobre vosotros, y sobre esta ciudad, y sobre sus moradores: porque en verdad Jehová me envió a vosotros para que dijese todas estas palabras en vuestros oídos.
Pero sepan bien que, si me matan, echarán sangre inocente sobre ustedes, sobre esta ciudad y sobre sus habitantes, porque verdaderamente Jehová me ha enviado a ustedes para decirles al oído todas estas palabras».
Seulement sachez que, si vous me faites mourir, vous vous chargez du sang innocent, vous, cette ville et ses habitants; car l'Eternel m'a véritablement envoyé vers vous pour prononcer à vos oreilles toutes ces paroles.
Ma pur sappiate per certo che se voi mi fate morire, voi mettete del sangue innocente addosso a voi, ed a questa città, ed ai suoi abitanti; perciocchè in verità il Signore mi ha mandato a voi, per pronunziare a’ vostri orecchi tutte queste parole
Sabei, porém, com certeza que, se me matardes, trareis sangue inocente sobre vós, e sobre esta cidade, e sobre os seus habitantes; porque, na verdade, o SENHOR me enviou a vós, para dizer aos vossos ouvidos todas estas palavras.
但你們要確實知道,你們若把我處死,就使流無辜人血的罪歸給你們和這城,以及城裏的居民了;因為耶和華確實差遣我到你們這裏來,將這一切話傳到你們耳中。」
