Jeremiah 16

16:1

The word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

came also unto me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

16:2

Thou shalt not take
<03947> (8799)

thee a wife
<0802>_,

neither shalt thou have sons
<01121>

or daughters
<01323>

in this place
<04725>_.

16:3

For thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

concerning the sons
<01121>

and concerning the daughters
<01323>

that are born
<03205> (8688)

in this place
<04725>_,

and concerning their mothers
<0517>

that bare
<03205> (8802)

them, and concerning their fathers
<01>

that begat
<03209>

them in this land
<0776>_;

16:4

They shall die
<04191> (8799)

of grievous
<08463>

deaths
<04463>_;

they shall not be lamented
<05594> (8735)_;

neither shall they be buried
<06912> (8735)_;

[but] they shall be as dung
<01828>

upon the face
<06440>

of the earth
<0127>_:

and they shall be consumed
<03615> (8799)

by the sword
<02719>_,

and by famine
<07458>_;

and their carcases
<05038>

shall be meat
<03978>

for the fowls
<05775>

of heaven
<08064>_,

and for the beasts
<0929>

of the earth
<0776>_.

16:5

For thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Enter
<0935> (8799)

not into the house
<01004>

of mourning
<04798>_,

neither go
<03212> (8799)

to lament
<05594> (8800)

nor bemoan
<05110> (8799)

them: for I have taken away
<0622> (8804)

my peace
<07965>

from this people
<05971>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

[even] lovingkindness
<02617>

and mercies
<07356>_.

{mourning: or, mourning feast}

16:6

Both the great
<01419>

and the small
<06996>

shall die
<04191> (8804)

in this land
<0776>_:

they shall not be buried
<06912> (8735)_,

neither shall [men] lament
<05594> (8799)

for them, nor cut
<01413> (8704)

themselves, nor make themselves bald
<07139> (8735)

for them:

16:7

Neither shall [men] tear
<06536> (8799)

[themselves] for them in mourning
<060>_,

to comfort
<05162> (8763)

them for the dead
<04191> (8801)_;

neither shall [men] give them the cup
<03563>

of consolation
<08575>

to drink
<08248> (8686)

for their father
<01>

or for their mother
<0517>_.

{tear...: or, break bread for them}

16:8

Thou shalt not also go
<0935> (8799)

into the house
<01004>

of feasting
<04960>_,

to sit
<03427> (8800)

with them to eat
<0398> (8800)

and to drink
<08354> (8800)_.

16:9

For thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Behold, I will cause to cease
<07673> (8688)

out of this place
<04725>

in your eyes
<05869>_,

and in your days
<03117>_,

the voice
<06963>

of mirth
<08342>_,

and the voice
<06963>

of gladness
<08057>_,

the voice
<06963>

of the bridegroom
<02860>_,

and the voice
<06963>

of the bride
<03618>_.

16:10

And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt shew
<05046> (8686)

this people
<05971>

all these words
<01697>_,

and they shall say
<0559> (8804)

unto thee, Wherefore hath the LORD
<03068>

pronounced
<01696> (8765)

all this great
<01419>

evil
<07451>

against us? or what [is] our iniquity
<05771>_?

or what [is] our sin
<02403>

that we have committed
<02398> (8804)

against the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_?

16:11

Then shalt thou say
<0559> (8804)

unto them, Because your fathers
<01>

have forsaken
<05800> (8804)

me, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and have walked
<03212> (8799)

after
<0310>

other
<0312>

gods
<0430>_,

and have served
<05647> (8799)

them, and have worshipped
<07812> (8691)

them, and have forsaken
<05800> (8804)

me, and have not kept
<08104> (8804)

my law
<08451>_;

16:12

And ye have done
<06213> (8800)

worse
<07489> (8689)

than your fathers
<01>_;

for, behold
<02009>_,

ye walk
<01980> (8802)

every one
<0376>

after
<0310>

the imagination
<08307>

of his evil
<07451>

heart
<03820>_,

that they may not hearken
<08085> (8800)

unto me: {imagination: or, stubbornness}

16:13

Therefore will I cast
<02904> (8689)

you out of this land
<0776>

into a land
<0776>

that ye know
<03045> (8804)

not, [neither] ye nor your fathers
<01>_;

and there shall ye serve
<05647> (8804)

other
<0312>

gods
<0430>

day
<03119>

and night
<03915>_;

where I will not shew
<05414> (8799)

you favour
<02594>_.

16:14

Therefore, behold, the days
<03117>

come
<0935> (8802)_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

that it shall no more be said
<0559> (8735)_,

The LORD
<03068>

liveth
<02416>_,

that brought up
<05927> (8689)

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

out of the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_;

16:15

But, The LORD
<03068>

liveth
<02416>_,

that brought up
<05927> (8689)

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

from the land
<0776>

of the north
<06828>_,

and from all the lands
<0776>

whither he had driven
<05080> (8689)

them: and I will bring them again
<07725> (8689)

into their land
<0127>

that I gave
<05414> (8804)

unto their fathers
<01>_.

16:16

Behold, I will send
<07971> (8802)

for many
<07227>

fishers
<01771> (8675) <01728>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and they shall fish
<01770> (8804)

them; and after
<0310>

will I send
<07971> (8799)

for many
<07227>

hunters
<06719>_,

and they shall hunt
<06679> (8804)

them from every mountain
<02022>_,

and from every hill
<01389>_,

and out of the holes
<05357>

of the rocks
<05553>_.

16:17

For mine eyes
<05869>

[are] upon all their ways
<01870>_:

they are not hid
<05641> (8738)

from my face
<06440>_,

neither is their iniquity
<05771>

hid
<06845> (8738)

from
<05048>

mine eyes
<05869>_.

16:18

And first
<07223>

I will recompense
<07999> (8765)

their iniquity
<05771>

and their sin
<02403>

double
<04932>_;

because they have defiled
<02490> (8763)

my land
<0776>_,

they have filled
<04390> (8804)

mine inheritance
<05159>

with the carcases
<05038>

of their detestable
<08251>

and abominable things
<08441>_.

16:19

O LORD
<03068>_,

my strength
<05797>_,

and my fortress
<04581>_,

and my refuge
<04498>

in the day
<03117>

of affliction
<06869>_,

the Gentiles
<01471>

shall come
<0935> (8799)

unto thee from the ends
<0657>

of the earth
<0776>_,

and shall say
<0559> (8799)_,

Surely our fathers
<01>

have inherited
<05157> (8804)

lies
<08267>_,

vanity
<01892>_,

and [things] wherein [there is] no profit
<03276> (8688)_.

16:20

Shall a man
<0120>

make
<06213> (8799)

gods
<0430>

unto himself, and they [are] no gods
<0430>_?

16:21

Therefore, behold, I will this once
<06471>

cause them to know
<03045> (8688)_,

I will cause them to know
<03045> (8686)

mine hand
<03027>

and my might
<01369>_;

and they shall know
<03045> (8804)

that my name
<08034>

[is] The LORD
<03068>_.

{The LORD: or, JEHOVAH}
