Where Cushi appears in Scripture

Jeremiah 36

וַיִּשְׁלְחוּ כָל-הַשָּׂרִים אֶל-בָּרוּךְ אֶת-יְהוּדִי בֶּן-נְתַנְיָהוּ בֶּן-שֶׁלֶמְיָהוּ בֶן-כּוּשִׁי לֵאמֹר הַמְּגִלָּה אֲשֶׁר קָרָאתָ בָּהּ בְּאָזְנֵי הָעָם קָחֶנָּה בְיָדְךָ וָלֵךְ וַיִּקַּח בָּרוּךְ בֶּן-נֵרִיָּהוּ אֶת-הַמְּגִלָּה בְּיָדוֹ וַיָּבֹא אֲלֵיהֶֽם׃
14
Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, Take in thine hand the roll wherein thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah took the roll in his hand, and came unto them.

Zephaniah 1

דְּבַר-יְהוָה׀ אֲשֶׁר הָיָה אֶל-צְפַנְיָה בֶּן-כּוּשִׁי בֶן-גְּדַלְיָה בֶּן-אֲמַרְיָה בֶּן-חִזְקִיָּה בִּימֵי יֹאשִׁיָּהוּ בֶן-אָמוֹן מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָֽה׃
