2 Chronicles 36:8

Now the rest
<03499>
of the acts
<01697>
of Jehoiakim
<03079>_,
and his abominations
<08441>
which he did
<06213> (8804)_,
and that which was found
<04672> (8737)
in him, behold, they [are] written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
of the kings
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
and Judah
<03063>_:
and Jehoiachin
<03078>
his son
<01121>
reigned
<04427> (8799)
in his stead. {Jehoiachin: also called, Jeconiah, or, Coniah}

Jeremiah 22:13-17

Woe
<01945>
unto him that buildeth
<01129> (8802)
his house
<01004>
by
<03808>
unrighteousness
<06664>_,
and his chambers
<05944>
by wrong
<04941>_;
[that] useth his neighbour's
<07453>
service
<05647> (8799)
without wages
<02600>_,
and giveth
<05414> (8799)
him not for his work
<06467>_;
That saith
<0559> (8802)_,
I will build
<01129> (8799)
me a wide
<04060>
house
<01004>
and large
<07304> (8794)
chambers
<05944>_,
and cutteth him out
<07167> (8804)
windows
<02474>_;
and [it is] cieled
<05603> (8803)
with cedar
<0730>_,
and painted
<04886> (8800)
with vermilion
<08350>_.
{large: Heb. through-aired} {windows: or, my windows}
Shalt thou reign
<04427> (8799)_,
because thou closest
<08474> (8808)
[thyself] in cedar
<0730>_?
did not thy father
<01>
eat
<0398> (8804)
and drink
<08354> (8804)_,
and do
<06213> (8804)
judgment
<04941>
and justice
<06666>_,
[and] then [it was] well
<02896>
with him?
He judged
<01777> (8804)
the cause
<01779>
of the poor
<06041>
and needy
<034>_;
then [it was] well
<02896>
[with him: was] not this to know
<01847>
me? saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
But thine eyes
<05869>
and thine heart
<03820>
[are] not but for thy covetousness
<01215>_,
and for to shed
<08210> (8800)
innocent
<05355>
blood
<01818>_,
and for oppression
<06233>_,
and for violence
<04835>_,
to do
<06213> (8800)
[it]. {violence: or, incursion}

Jeremiah 26:1--36:32

In the beginning
<07225>
of the reign
<04468>
of Jehoiakim
<03079>
the son
<01121>
of Josiah
<02977>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
came this word
<01697>
from the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Stand
<05975> (8798)
in the court
<02691>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
house
<01004>_,
and speak
<01696> (8765)
unto all the cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>_,
which come
<0935> (8802)
to worship
<07812> (8692)
in the LORD'S
<03068>
house
<01004>_,
all the words
<01697>
that I command
<06680> (8765)
thee to speak
<01696> (8763)
unto them; diminish
<01639> (8799)
not a word
<01697>_:
If so be they will hearken
<08085> (8799)_,
and turn
<07725> (8799)
every man
<0376>
from his evil
<07451>
way
<01870>_,
that I may repent
<05162> (8738)
me of the evil
<07451>_,
which I purpose
<02803> (8802)
to do
<06213> (8800)
unto them because
<06440>
of the evil
<07455>
of their doings
<04611>_.
And thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
If ye will not hearken
<08085> (8799)
to me, to walk
<03212> (8800)
in my law
<08451>_,
which I have set
<05414> (8804)
before
<06440>
you,
To hearken
<08085> (8800)
to the words
<01697>
of my servants
<05650>
the prophets
<05030>_,
whom I sent
<07971> (8802)
unto you, both rising up early
<07925> (8687)_,
and sending
<07971> (8800)
[them], but ye have not hearkened
<08085> (8804)_;
Then will I make
<05414> (8804)
this house
<01004>
like Shiloh
<07887>_,
and will make
<05414> (8799)
this city
<05892>
a curse
<07045>
to all the nations
<01471>
of the earth
<0776>_.
So the priests
<03548>
and the prophets
<05030>
and all the people
<05971>
heard
<08085> (8799)
Jeremiah
<03414>
speaking
<01696> (8764)
these words
<01697>
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
Now it came to pass, when Jeremiah
<03414>
had made an end
<03615> (8763)
of speaking
<01696> (8763)
all that the LORD
<03068>
had commanded
<06680> (8765)
[him] to speak
<01696> (8763)
unto all the people
<05971>_,
that the priests
<03548>
and the prophets
<05030>
and all the people
<05971>
took
<08610> (8799)
him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thou shalt surely
<04191> (8800)
die
<04191> (8799)_.
Why hast thou prophesied
<05012> (8738)
in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
This house
<01004>
shall be like Shiloh
<07887>_,
and this city
<05892>
shall be desolate
<02717> (8799)
without an inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_?
And all the people
<05971>
were gathered
<06950> (8735)
against Jeremiah
<03414>
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
When the princes
<08269>
of Judah
<03063>
heard
<08085> (8799)
these things
<01697>_,
then they came up
<05927> (8799)
from the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>
unto the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and sat down
<03427> (8799)
in the entry
<06607>
of the new
<02319>
gate
<08179>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
[house]. {in the...: or, at the door}
Then spake
<0559> (8799)
the priests
<03548>
and the prophets
<05030>
unto the princes
<08269>
and to all the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
This man
<0376>
[is] worthy
<04941>
to die
<04194>_;
for he hath prophesied
<05012> (8738)
against this city
<05892>_,
as ye have heard
<08085> (8804)
with your ears
<0241>_.
{This man...: Heb. The judgment of death is for this man}
Then spake
<0559> (8799)
Jeremiah
<03414>
unto all the princes
<08269>
and to all the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The LORD
<03068>
sent
<07971> (8804)
me to prophesy
<05012> (8736)
against this house
<01004>
and against this city
<05892>
all the words
<01697>
that ye have heard
<08085> (8804)_.
Therefore now amend
<03190> (8685)
your ways
<01870>
and your doings
<04611>_,
and obey
<08085> (8798)
the voice
<06963>
of the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_;
and the LORD
<03068>
will repent
<05162> (8735)
him of the evil
<07451>
that he hath pronounced
<01696> (8765)
against you.
As for me, behold, I [am] in your hand
<03027>_:
do
<06213> (8798)
with me as seemeth
<05869>
good
<02896>
and meet
<03477>
unto you. {as...: Heb. as it is good and right in your eyes}
But know
<03045> (8799)
ye for certain
<03045> (8800)_,
that if ye put me to death
<04191> (8688)_,
ye shall surely bring
<05414> (8802)
innocent
<05355>
blood
<01818>
upon yourselves, and upon this city
<05892>_,
and upon the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
thereof: for of a truth
<0571>
the LORD
<03068>
hath sent
<07971> (8804)
me unto you to speak
<01696> (8763)
all these words
<01697>
in your ears
<0241>_.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
the princes
<08269>
and all the people
<05971>
unto the priests
<03548>
and to the prophets
<05030>_;
This man
<0376>
[is] not worthy
<04941>
to die
<04194>_:
for he hath spoken
<01696> (8765)
to us in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_.
Then rose up
<06965> (8799)
certain
<0582>
of the elders
<02205>
of the land
<0776>_,
and spake
<0559> (8799)
to all the assembly
<06951>
of the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Micah
<04320>
the Morasthite
<04183>
prophesied
<05012> (8737)
in the days
<03117>
of Hezekiah
<02396>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and spake
<0559> (8799)
to all the people
<05971>
of Judah
<03063>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_;
Zion
<06726>
shall be plowed
<02790> (8735)
[like] a field
<07704>_,
and Jerusalem
<03389>
shall become heaps
<05856>_,
and the mountain
<02022>
of the house
<01004>
as the high places
<01116>
of a forest
<03293>_.
Did Hezekiah
<02396>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
and all Judah
<03063>
put him at all
<04191> (8687)
to death
<04191> (8689)_?
did he not fear
<03373>
the LORD
<03068>_,
and besought
<02470> (8762)
the LORD
<03068> <06440>_,
and the LORD
<03068>
repented
<05162> (8735)
him of the evil
<07451>
which he had pronounced
<01696> (8765)
against them? Thus
<0587>
might we procure
<06213> (8802)
great
<01419>
evil
<07451>
against our souls
<05315>_.
{the LORD, and the: Heb. the face of the LORD, etc}
And there was also a man
<0376>
that prophesied
<05012> (8693)
in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
Urijah
<0223>
the son
<01121>
of Shemaiah
<08098>
of Kirjathjearim
<07157>_,
who prophesied
<05012> (8735)
against this city
<05892>
and against this land
<0776>
according to all the words
<01697>
of Jeremiah
<03414>_:
And when Jehoiakim
<03079>
the king
<04428>_,
with all his mighty men
<01368>_,
and all the princes
<08269>_,
heard
<08085> (8799)
his words
<01697>_,
the king
<04428>
sought
<01245> (8762)
to put him to death
<04191> (8687)_:
but when Urijah
<0223>
heard
<08085> (8799)
it, he was afraid
<03372> (8799)_,
and fled
<01272> (8799)_,
and went
<0935> (8799)
into Egypt
<04714>_;
And Jehoiakim
<03079>
the king
<04428>
sent
<07971> (8799)
men
<0582>
into Egypt
<04714>_,
[namely], Elnathan
<0494>
the son
<01121>
of Achbor
<05907>_,
and [certain] men
<0582>
with him into Egypt
<04714>_.
And they fetched forth
<03318> (8686)
Urijah
<0223>
out of Egypt
<04714>_,
and brought
<0935> (8686)
him unto Jehoiakim
<03079>
the king
<04428>_;
who slew
<05221> (8686)
him with the sword
<02719>_,
and cast
<07993> (8686)
his dead body
<05038>
into the graves
<06913>
of the common
<01121>
people
<05971>_.
{common...: Heb. sons of the people}
Nevertheless the hand
<03027>
of Ahikam
<0296>
the son
<01121>
of Shaphan
<08227>
was with Jeremiah
<03414>_,
that they should not give
<05414> (8800)
him into the hand
<03027>
of the people
<05971>
to put him to death
<04191> (8687)_.
In the beginning
<07225>
of the reign
<04467>
of Jehoiakim
<03079>
the son
<01121>
of Josiah
<02977>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
came this word
<01697>
unto Jeremiah
<03414>
from the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
to me; Make
<06213> (8798)
thee bonds
<04147>
and yokes
<04133>_,
and put
<05414> (8804)
them upon thy neck
<06677>_,
{saith...: or, hath the LORD said}
And send
<07971> (8765)
them to the king
<04428>
of Edom
<0123>_,
and to the king
<04428>
of Moab
<04124>_,
and to the king
<04428>
of the Ammonites
<01121> <05983>_,
and to the king
<04428>
of Tyrus
<06865>_,
and to the king
<04428>
of Zidon
<06721>_,
by the hand
<03027>
of the messengers
<04397>
which come
<0935> (8802)
to Jerusalem
<03389>
unto Zedekiah
<06667>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_;
And command
<06680> (8765)
them to say
<0559> (8800)
unto their masters
<0113>_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Thus shall ye say
<0559> (8799)
unto your masters
<0113>_;
{to say...: or, concerning their masters, saying}
I have made
<06213> (8804)
the earth
<0776>_,
the man
<0120>
and the beast
<0929>
that [are] upon
<06440>
the ground
<0776>_,
by my great
<01419>
power
<03581>
and by my outstretched
<05186> (8803)
arm
<02220>_,
and have given
<05414> (8804)
it unto whom it seemed
<05869>
meet
<03474> (8804)
unto me.
And now have I given
<05414> (8804)
all these lands
<0776>
into the hand
<03027>
of Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>
the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
my servant
<05650>_;
and the beasts
<02416>
of the field
<07704>
have I given
<05414> (8804)
him also to serve
<05647> (8800)
him.
And all nations
<01471>
shall serve
<05647> (8804)
him, and his son
<01121>_,
and his son's
<01121>
son
<01121>_,
until the very time
<06256>
of his land
<0776>
come
<0935> (8800)_:
and then many
<07227>
nations
<01471>
and great
<01419>
kings
<04428>
shall serve
<05647> (8804)
themselves of him.
And it shall come to pass, [that] the nation
<01471>
and kingdom
<04467>
which will not serve
<05647> (8799)
the same Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>
the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and that will not put
<05414> (8799)
their neck
<06677>
under the yoke
<05923>
of the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
that nation
<01471>
will I punish
<06485> (8799)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
with the sword
<02719>_,
and with the famine
<07458>_,
and with the pestilence
<01698>_,
until I have consumed
<08552> (8800)
them by his hand
<03027>_.
Therefore hearken
<08085> (8799)
not ye to your prophets
<05030>_,
nor to your diviners
<07080> (8802)_,
nor to your dreamers
<02472>_,
nor to your enchanters
<06049> (8781)_,
nor to your sorcerers
<03786>_,
which speak
<0559> (8802)
unto you, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Ye shall not serve
<05647> (8799)
the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_:
{dreamers: Heb. dreams}
For they prophesy
<05012> (8737)
a lie
<08267>
unto you, to remove you far
<07368> (8687)
from your land
<0127>_;
and that I should drive you out
<05080> (8689)_,
and ye should perish
<06> (8804)_.
But the nations
<01471>
that bring
<0935> (8686)
their neck
<06677>
under the yoke
<05923>
of the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and serve
<05647> (8804)
him, those will I let remain still
<03240> (8689)
in their own land
<0127>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
and they shall till
<05647> (8804)
it, and dwell
<03427> (8804)
therein.
I spake
<01696> (8765)
also to Zedekiah
<06667>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
according to all these words
<01697>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Bring
<0935> (8685)
your necks
<06677>
under the yoke
<05923>
of the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and serve
<05647> (8798)
him and his people
<05971>_,
and live
<02421> (8798)_.
Why will ye die
<04191> (8799)_,
thou and thy people
<05971>_,
by the sword
<02719>_,
by the famine
<07458>_,
and by the pestilence
<01698>_,
as the LORD
<03068>
hath spoken
<01696> (8765)
against the nation
<01471>
that will not serve
<05647> (8799)
the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_?
Therefore hearken
<08085> (8799)
not unto the words
<01697>
of the prophets
<05030>
that speak
<0559> (8802)
unto you, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Ye shall not serve
<05647> (8799)
the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_:
for they prophesy
<05012> (8737)
a lie
<08267>
unto you.
For I have not sent
<07971> (8804)
them, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
yet they prophesy
<05012> (8737)
a lie
<08267>
in my name
<08034>_;
that I might drive you out
<05080> (8687)_,
and that ye might perish
<06> (8804)_,
ye, and the prophets
<05030>
that prophesy
<05012> (8737)
unto you. {a lie: Heb. in a lie, or, lyingly}
Also I spake
<01696> (8765)
to the priests
<03548>
and to all this people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Hearken
<08085> (8799)
not to the words
<01697>
of your prophets
<05030>
that prophesy
<05012> (8737)
unto you, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Behold, the vessels
<03627>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
house
<01004>
shall now shortly
<04120>
be brought again
<07725> (8716)
from Babylon
<0894>_:
for they prophesy
<05012> (8737)
a lie
<08267>
unto you.
Hearken
<08085> (8799)
not unto them; serve
<05647> (8798)
the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and live
<02421> (8798)_:
wherefore should this city
<05892>
be laid waste
<02723>_?
But if they [be] prophets
<05030>_,
and if the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
be
<03426>
with them, let them now make intercession
<06293> (8799)
to the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
that the vessels
<03627>
which are left
<03498> (8737)
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and [in] the house
<01004>
of the king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and at Jerusalem
<03389>_,
go
<0935> (8804)
not to Babylon
<0894>_.
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
concerning the pillars
<05982>_,
and concerning the sea
<03220>_,
and concerning the bases
<04350>_,
and concerning the residue
<03499>
of the vessels
<03627>
that remain
<03498> (8737)
in this city
<05892>_,
Which Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>
took
<03947> (8804)
not, when he carried away captive
<01540> (8687)
Jeconiah
<03204>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiakim
<03079>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
from Jerusalem
<03389>
to Babylon
<0894>_,
and all the nobles
<02715>
of Judah
<03063>
and Jerusalem
<03389>_;
Yea, thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
concerning the vessels
<03627>
that remain
<03498> (8737)
[in] the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and [in] the house
<01004>
of the king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
and of Jerusalem
<03389>_;
They shall be carried
<0935> (8714)
to Babylon
<0894>_,
and there shall they be until the day
<03117>
that I visit
<06485> (8800)
them, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
then will I bring
<05927> (8689)
them up, and restore
<07725> (8689)
them to this place
<04725>_.
And it came to pass the same year
<08141>_,
in the beginning
<07225>
of the reign
<04467>
of Zedekiah
<06667>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
in the fourth
<07243>
year
<08141>_,
[and] in the fifth
<02549>
month
<02320>_,
[that] Hananiah
<02608>
the son
<01121>
of Azur
<05809>
the prophet
<05030>_,
which [was] of Gibeon
<01391>_,
spake
<0559> (8804)
unto me in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
in the presence
<05869>
of the priests
<03548>
and of all the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus speaketh
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
I have broken
<07665> (8804)
the yoke
<05923>
of the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_.
Within two full
<03117>
years
<08141>
will I bring again
<07725> (8688)
into this place
<04725>
all the vessels
<03627>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
house
<01004>_,
that Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>
took away
<03947> (8804)
from this place
<04725>_,
and carried
<0935> (8686)
them to Babylon
<0894>_:
{two...: Heb. two years of days}
And I will bring again
<07725> (8688)
to this place
<04725>
Jeconiah
<03204>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiakim
<03079>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
with all the captives
<01546>
of Judah
<03063>_,
that went
<0935> (8802)
into Babylon
<0894>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_:
for I will break
<07665> (8799)
the yoke
<05923>
of the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_.
{captives: Heb. captivity}
Then the prophet
<05030>
Jeremiah
<03414>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the prophet
<05030>
Hananiah
<02608>
in the presence
<05869>
of the priests
<03548>_,
and in the presence
<05869>
of all the people
<05971>
that stood
<05975> (8802)
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
Even the prophet
<05030>
Jeremiah
<03414>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Amen
<0543>_:
the LORD
<03068>
do
<06213> (8799)
so: the LORD
<03068>
perform
<06965> (8686)
thy words
<01697>
which thou hast prophesied
<05012> (8738)_,
to bring again
<07725> (8687)
the vessels
<03627>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
house
<01004>_,
and all that is carried away captive
<01473>_,
from Babylon
<0894>
into this place
<04725>_.
Nevertheless hear
<08085> (8798)
thou now this word
<01697>
that I speak
<01696> (8802)
in thine ears
<0241>_,
and in the ears
<0241>
of all the people
<05971>_;
The prophets
<05030>
that have been before
<06440>
me and before
<06440>
thee of old
<05769>
prophesied
<05012> (8735)
both against many
<07227>
countries
<0776>_,
and against great
<01419>
kingdoms
<04467>_,
of war
<04421>_,
and of evil
<07451>_,
and of pestilence
<01698>_.
The prophet
<05030>
which prophesieth
<05012> (8735)
of peace
<07965>_,
when the word
<01697>
of the prophet
<05030>
shall come to pass
<0935> (8800)_,
[then]
<0227>
shall the prophet
<05030>
be known
<03045> (8735)_,
that the LORD
<03068>
hath truly
<0571>
sent
<07971> (8804)
him.
Then Hananiah
<02608>
the prophet
<05030>
took
<03947> (8799)
the yoke
<04133>
from off the prophet
<05030>
Jeremiah's
<03414>
neck
<06677>_,
and brake
<07665> (8799)
it.
And Hananiah
<02608>
spake
<0559> (8799)
in the presence
<05869>
of all the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Even so will I break
<07665> (8799)
the yoke
<05923>
of Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>
from the neck
<06677>
of all nations
<01471>
within the space of two full
<03117>
years
<08141>_.
And the prophet
<05030>
Jeremiah
<03414>
went
<03212> (8799)
his way
<01870>_.
Then the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came unto Jeremiah
<03414>
[the prophet], after
<0310>
that Hananiah
<02608>
the prophet
<05030>
had broken
<07665> (8800)
the yoke
<04133>
from off the neck
<06677>
of the prophet
<05030>
Jeremiah
<03414>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Go
<01980> (8800)
and tell
<0559> (8804)
Hananiah
<02608>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Thou hast broken
<07665> (8804)
the yokes
<04133>
of wood
<06086>_;
but thou shalt make
<06213> (8804)
for them yokes
<04133>
of iron
<01270>_.
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
I have put
<05414> (8804)
a yoke
<05923>
of iron
<01270>
upon the neck
<06677>
of all these nations
<01471>_,
that they may serve
<05647> (8800)
Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_;
and they shall serve
<05647> (8804)
him: and I have given
<05414> (8804)
him the beasts
<02416>
of the field
<07704>
also.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
the prophet
<05030>
Jeremiah
<03414>
unto Hananiah
<02608>
the prophet
<05030>_,
Hear
<08085> (8798)
now, Hananiah
<02608>_;
The LORD
<03068>
hath not sent
<07971> (8804)
thee; but thou makest this people
<05971>
to trust
<0982> (8689)
in a lie
<08267>_.
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Behold, I will cast
<07971> (8764)
thee from off the face
<06440>
of the earth
<0127>_:
this year
<08141>
thou shalt die
<04191> (8801)_,
because thou hast taught
<01696> (8765)
rebellion
<05627>
against the LORD
<03068>_.
{rebellion: Heb. revolt}
So Hananiah
<02608>
the prophet
<05030>
died
<04191> (8799)
the same year
<08141>
in the seventh
<07637>
month
<02320>_.
Now these [are] the words
<01697>
of the letter
<05612>
that Jeremiah
<03414>
the prophet
<05030>
sent
<07971> (8804)
from Jerusalem
<03389>
unto the residue
<03499>
of the elders
<02205>
which were carried away captives
<01473>_,
and to the priests
<03548>_,
and to the prophets
<05030>_,
and to all the people
<05971>
whom Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>
had carried away captive
<01540> (8689)
from Jerusalem
<03389>
to Babylon
<0894>_;
(After
<0310>
that Jeconiah
<03204>
the king
<04428>_,
and the queen
<01377>_,
and the eunuchs
<05631>_,
the princes
<08269>
of Judah
<03063>
and Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and the carpenters
<02796>_,
and the smiths
<04525>_,
were departed
<03318> (8800)
from Jerusalem
<03389>;)
{eunuchs: or, chamberlains}
By the hand
<03027>
of Elasah
<0501>
the son
<01121>
of Shaphan
<08227>_,
and Gemariah
<01587>
the son
<01121>
of Hilkiah
<02518>_,
(whom Zedekiah
<06667>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
sent
<07971> (8804)
unto Babylon
<0894>
to Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>)
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
unto all that are carried away captives
<01473>_,
whom I have caused to be carried away
<01540> (8689)
from Jerusalem
<03389>
unto Babylon
<0894>_;
Build
<01129> (8798)
ye houses
<01004>_,
and dwell
<03427> (8798)
[in them]; and plant
<05193> (8798)
gardens
<01593>_,
and eat
<0398> (8798)
the fruit
<06529>
of them;
Take
<03947> (8798)
ye wives
<0802>_,
and beget
<03205> (8685)
sons
<01121>
and daughters
<01323>_;
and take
<03947> (8798)
wives
<0802>
for your sons
<01121>_,
and give
<05414> (8798)
your daughters
<01323>
to husbands
<0582>_,
that they may bear
<03205> (8799)
sons
<01121>
and daughters
<01121>_;
that ye may be increased
<07235> (8798)
there, and not diminished
<04591> (8799)_.
And seek
<01875> (8798)
the peace
<07965>
of the city
<05892>
whither I have caused you to be carried away captives
<01540> (8689)_,
and pray
<06419> (8690)
unto the LORD
<03068>
for it: for in the peace
<07965>
thereof shall ye have peace
<07965>_.
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Let not your prophets
<05030>
and your diviners
<07080> (8802)_,
that [be] in the midst
<07130>
of you, deceive
<05377> (8686)
you, neither hearken
<08085> (8799)
to your dreams
<02472>
which ye cause to be dreamed
<02492> (8688)_.
For they prophesy
<05012> (8737)
falsely
<08267>
unto you in my name
<08034>_:
I have not sent
<07971> (8804)
them, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
{falsely: Heb. in a lie}
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
That after
<06310>
seventy
<07657>
years
<08141>
be accomplished
<04390> (8800)
at Babylon
<0894>
I will visit
<06485> (8799)
you, and perform
<06965> (8689)
my good
<02896>
word
<01697>
toward you, in causing you to return
<07725> (8687)
to this place
<04725>_.
For I know
<03045> (8804)
the thoughts
<04284>
that I think
<02803> (8802)
toward you, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
thoughts
<04284>
of peace
<07965>_,
and not of evil
<07451>_,
to give
<05414> (8800)
you an expected
<08615>
end
<0319>_.
{expected...: Heb. end and expectation}
Then shall ye call
<07121> (8804)
upon me, and ye shall go
<01980> (8804)
and pray
<06419> (8694)
unto me, and I will hearken
<08085> (8804)
unto you.
And ye shall seek
<01245> (8765)
me, and find
<04672> (8804)
[me], when ye shall search
<01875> (8799)
for me with all your heart
<03824>_.
And I will be found
<04672> (8738)
of you, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_:
and I will turn away
<07725> (8804)
your captivity
<07622> (8675) <07622>_,
and I will gather
<06908> (8765)
you from all the nations
<01471>_,
and from all the places
<04725>
whither I have driven
<05080> (8689)
you, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
and I will bring you again
<07725> (8689)
into the place
<04725>
whence I caused you to be carried away captive
<01540> (8689)_.
Because ye have said
<0559> (8804)_,
The LORD
<03068>
hath raised us up
<06965> (8689)
prophets
<05030>
in Babylon
<0894>_;
[Know] that thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of the king
<04428>
that sitteth
<03427> (8802)
upon the throne
<03678>
of David
<01732>_,
and of all the people
<05971>
that dwelleth
<03427> (8802)
in this city
<05892>_,
[and] of your brethren
<0251>
that are not gone forth
<03318> (8804)
with you into captivity
<01473>_;
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_;
Behold, I will send
<07971> (8764)
upon them the sword
<02719>_,
the famine
<07458>_,
and the pestilence
<01698>_,
and will make
<05414> (8804)
them like vile
<08182>
figs
<08384>_,
that cannot be eaten
<0398> (8735)_,
they are so evil
<07455>_.
And I will persecute
<07291> (8804)
them
<0310>
with the sword
<02719>_,
with the famine
<07458>_,
and with the pestilence
<01698>_,
and will deliver
<05414> (8804)
them to be removed
<02189> (8675) <02113>
to all the kingdoms
<04467>
of the earth
<0776>_,
to be a curse
<0423>_,
and an astonishment
<08047>_,
and an hissing
<08322>_,
and a reproach
<02781>_,
among all the nations
<01471>
whither I have driven
<05080> (8689)
them: {to be a curse: Heb. for a curse}
Because they have not hearkened
<08085> (8804)
to my words
<01697>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
which I sent
<07971> (8804)
unto them by my servants
<05650>
the prophets
<05030>_,
rising up early
<07925> (8687)
and sending
<07971> (8800)
[them]; but ye would not hear
<08085> (8804)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Hear
<08085> (8798)
ye therefore the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
all ye of the captivity
<01473>_,
whom I have sent
<07971> (8765)
from Jerusalem
<03389>
to Babylon
<0894>_:
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
of Ahab
<0256>
the son
<01121>
of Kolaiah
<06964>_,
and of Zedekiah
<06667>
the son
<01121>
of Maaseiah
<04641>_,
which prophesy
<05012> (8737)
a lie
<08267>
unto you in my name
<08034>_;
Behold, I will deliver
<05414> (8802)
them into the hand
<03027>
of Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_;
and he shall slay
<05221> (8689)
them before your eyes
<05869>_;
And of them shall be taken up
<03947> (8795)
a curse
<07045>
by all the captivity
<01546>
of Judah
<03063>
which [are] in Babylon
<0894>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The LORD
<03068>
make
<07760> (8799)
thee like Zedekiah
<06667>
and like Ahab
<0256>_,
whom the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>
roasted
<07033> (8804)
in the fire
<0784>_;
Because they have committed
<06213> (8804)
villany
<05039>
in Israel
<03478>_,
and have committed
<06213> (8804)
adultery
<05003> (8762)
with their neighbours
<07453>_'
wives
<0802>_,
and have spoken
<01696> (8762)
lying
<08267>
words
<01697>
in my name
<08034>_,
which I have not commanded
<06680> (8765)
them; even I know
<03045> (8802)_,
and [am] a witness
<05707>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
[Thus] shalt thou also speak
<0559> (8799)
to Shemaiah
<08098>
the Nehelamite
<05161>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
{Nehelamite: or, dreamer}
Thus speaketh
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Because thou hast sent
<07971> (8804)
letters
<05612>
in thy name
<08034>
unto all the people
<05971>
that [are] at Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and to Zephaniah
<06846>
the son
<01121>
of Maaseiah
<04641>
the priest
<03548>_,
and to all the priests
<03548>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The LORD
<03068>
hath made
<05414> (8804)
thee priest
<03548>
in the stead of Jehoiada
<03077>
the priest
<03548>_,
that ye should be officers
<06496>
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
for every man
<0376>
[that is] mad
<07696> (8794)_,
and maketh himself a prophet
<05012> (8693)_,
that thou shouldest put
<05414> (8804)
him in prison
<04115>_,
and in the stocks
<06729>_.
Now therefore why hast thou not reproved
<01605> (8804)
Jeremiah
<03414>
of Anathoth
<06069>_,
which maketh himself a prophet
<05012> (8693)
to you?
For therefore he sent
<07971> (8804)
unto us [in] Babylon
<0894>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
This
<01931>
[captivity is] long
<0752>_:
build
<01129> (8798)
ye houses
<01004>_,
and dwell
<03427> (8798)
[in them]; and plant
<05193> (8798)
gardens
<01593>_,
and eat
<0398> (8798)
the fruit
<06529>
of them.
And Zephaniah
<06846>
the priest
<03548>
read
<07121> (8799)
this letter
<05612>
in the ears
<0241>
of Jeremiah
<03414>
the prophet
<05030>_.
Then came the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Send
<07971> (8798)
to all them of the captivity
<01473>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
concerning Shemaiah
<08098>
the Nehelamite
<05161>_;
Because that Shemaiah
<08098>
hath prophesied
<05012> (8738)
unto you, and I sent
<07971> (8804)
him not, and he caused you to trust
<0982> (8686)
in a lie
<08267>_:
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Behold, I will punish
<06485> (8802)
Shemaiah
<08098>
the Nehelamite
<05161>_,
and his seed
<02233>_:
he shall not have a man
<0376>
to dwell
<03427> (8802)
among
<08432>
this people
<05971>_;
neither shall he behold
<07200> (8799)
the good
<02896>
that I will do
<06213> (8802)
for my people
<05971>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
because he hath taught
<01696> (8765)
rebellion
<05627>
against the LORD
<03068>_.
{rebellion: Heb. revolt}
The word
<01697>
that came to Jeremiah
<03414>
from the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus speaketh
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Write
<03789> (8798)
thee all the words
<01697>
that I have spoken
<01696> (8765)
unto thee in a book
<05612>_.
For, lo, the days
<03117>
come
<0935> (8802)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that I will bring again
<07725> (8804)
the captivity
<07622>
of my people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>
and Judah
<03063>_,
saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_:
and I will cause them to return
<07725> (8689)
to the land
<0776>
that I gave
<05414> (8804)
to their fathers
<01>_,
and they shall possess
<03423> (8804)
it.
And these [are] the words
<01697>
that the LORD
<03068>
spake
<01696> (8765)
concerning Israel
<03478>
and concerning Judah
<03063>_.
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
We have heard
<08085> (8804)
a voice
<06963>
of trembling
<02731>_,
of fear
<06343>_,
and not of peace
<07965>_.
{of fear...: or, there is fear, and not peace}
Ask
<07592> (8798)
ye now, and see
<07200> (8798)
whether a man
<02145>
doth travail with child
<03205> (8802)_?
wherefore do I see
<07200> (8804)
every man
<01397>
with his hands
<03027>
on his loins
<02504>_,
as a woman in travail
<03205> (8802)_,
and all faces
<06440>
are turned
<02015> (8738)
into paleness
<03420>_?
{a man: Heb. a male}
Alas
<01945>_!
for that day
<03117>
[is] great
<01419>_,
so that
<0369>
none [is] like it: it [is] even the time
<06256>
of Jacob's
<03290>
trouble
<06869>_;
but he shall be saved
<03467> (8735)
out of it.
For it shall come to pass in that day
<03117>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
[that] I will break
<07665> (8799)
his yoke
<05923>
from off thy neck
<06677>_,
and will burst
<05423> (8762)
thy bonds
<04147>_,
and strangers
<02114> (8801)
shall no more serve
<05647> (8799)
themselves of him:
But they shall serve
<05647> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
their God
<0430>_,
and David
<01732>
their king
<04428>_,
whom I will raise up
<06965> (8686)
unto them.
Therefore fear
<03372> (8799)
thou not, O my servant
<05650>
Jacob
<03290>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
neither be dismayed
<02865> (8735)_,
O Israel
<03478>_:
for, lo, I will save
<03467> (8688)
thee from afar
<07350>_,
and thy seed
<02233>
from the land
<0776>
of their captivity
<07628>_;
and Jacob
<03290>
shall return
<07725> (8804)_,
and shall be in rest
<08252> (8804)_,
and be quiet
<07599> (8768)_,
and none shall make [him] afraid
<02729> (8688)_.
For I [am] with thee, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
to save
<03467> (8687)
thee: though I make
<06213> (8799)
a full end
<03617>
of all nations
<01471>
whither I have scattered
<06327> (8689)
thee, yet will I not make
<06213> (8799)
a full end
<03617>
of thee: but I will correct
<03256> (8765)
thee in measure
<04941>_,
and will not leave thee altogether
<05352> (8763)
unpunished
<05352> (8762)_.
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Thy bruise
<07667>
[is] incurable
<0605> (8803)_,
[and] thy wound
<04347>
[is] grievous
<02470> (8737)_.
[There is] none to plead
<01777> (8802)
thy cause
<01779>_,
that thou mayest be bound up
<04205>_:
thou hast no healing
<08585>
medicines
<07499>_.
{that...: Heb. for binding up, or, pressing}
All thy lovers
<0157> (8764)
have forgotten
<07911> (8804)
thee; they seek
<01875> (8799)
thee not; for I have wounded
<05221> (8689)
thee with the wound
<04347>
of an enemy
<0341> (8802)_,
with the chastisement
<04148>
of a cruel one
<0394>_,
for the multitude
<07230>
of thine iniquity
<05771>_;
[because] thy sins
<02403>
were increased
<06105> (8804)_.
Why criest
<02199> (8799)
thou for thine affliction
<07667>_?
thy sorrow
<04341>
[is] incurable
<0605> (8803)
for the multitude
<07230>
of thine iniquity
<05771>_:
[because] thy sins
<02403>
were increased
<06105> (8804)_,
I have done
<06213> (8804)
these things unto thee.
Therefore all they that devour
<0398> (8802)
thee shall be devoured
<0398> (8735)_;
and all thine adversaries
<06862>_,
every one of them, shall go
<03212> (8799)
into captivity
<07628>_;
and they that spoil
<07601> (8802) (8675) <08154> (8802)
thee shall be a spoil
<04933>_,
and all that prey
<0962> (8802)
upon thee will I give
<05414> (8799)
for a prey
<0957>_.
For I will restore
<05927> (8686)
health
<0724>
unto thee, and I will heal
<07495> (8799)
thee of thy wounds
<04347>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
because they called
<07121> (8804)
thee an Outcast
<05080> (8737)_,
[saying], This [is] Zion
<06726>_,
whom no man seeketh after
<01875> (8802)_.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Behold, I will bring again
<07725> (8802)
the captivity
<07622>
of Jacob's
<03290>
tents
<0168>_,
and have mercy
<07355> (8762)
on his dwellingplaces
<04908>_;
and the city
<05892>
shall be builded
<01129> (8738)
upon her own heap
<08510>_,
and the palace
<0759>
shall remain
<03427> (8799)
after the manner
<04941>
thereof. {heap: or, little hill}
And out of them shall proceed
<03318> (8804)
thanksgiving
<08426>
and the voice
<06963>
of them that make merry
<07832> (8764)_:
and I will multiply
<07235> (8689)
them, and they shall not be few
<04591> (8799)_;
I will also glorify
<03513> (8689)
them, and they shall not be small
<06819> (8799)_.
Their children
<01121>
also shall be as aforetime
<06924>_,
and their congregation
<05712>
shall be established
<03559> (8735)
before
<06440>
me, and I will punish
<06485> (8804)
all that oppress
<03905> (8801)
them.
And their nobles
<0117>
shall be of themselves, and their governor
<04910> (8802)
shall proceed
<03318> (8799)
from the midst
<07130>
of them; and I will cause him to draw near
<07126> (8689)_,
and he shall approach
<05066> (8738)
unto me: for who [is] this that engaged
<06148> (8804)
his heart
<03820>
to approach
<05066> (8800)
unto me? saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
And ye shall be my people
<05971>_,
and I will be your God
<0430>_.
Behold, the whirlwind
<05591>
of the LORD
<03068>
goeth forth
<03318> (8804)
with fury
<02534>_,
a continuing
<01641> (8706)
whirlwind
<05591>_:
it shall fall with pain
<02342> (8799)
upon the head
<07218>
of the wicked
<07563>_.
{continuing: Heb. cutting} {fall...: or, remain}
The fierce
<02740>
anger
<0639>
of the LORD
<03068>
shall not return
<07725> (8799)_,
until he have done
<06213> (8800)
[it], and until he have performed
<06965> (8687)
the intents
<04209>
of his heart
<03820>_:
in the latter
<0319>
days
<03117>
ye shall consider
<0995> (8709)
it.
At the same time
<06256>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
will I be the God
<0430>
of all the families
<04940>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and they shall be my people
<05971>_.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
The people
<05971>
[which were] left
<08300>
of the sword
<02719>
found
<04672> (8804)
grace
<02580>
in the wilderness
<04057>_;
[even] Israel
<03478>_,
when I went
<01980> (8800)
to cause him to rest
<07280> (8687)_.
The LORD
<03068>
hath appeared
<07200> (8738)
of old
<07350>
unto me, [saying], Yea, I have loved
<0157> (8804)
thee with an everlasting
<05769>
love
<0160>_:
therefore with lovingkindness
<02617>
have I drawn
<04900> (8804)
thee. {of...: Heb. from afar} {with lovingkindness...: have I extended lovingkindness unto thee}
Again I will build
<01129> (8799)
thee, and thou shalt be built
<01129> (8738)_,
O virgin
<01330>
of Israel
<03478>_:
thou shalt again be adorned
<05710> (8799)
with thy tabrets
<08596>_,
and shalt go forth
<03318> (8804)
in the dances
<04234>
of them that make merry
<07832> (8764)_.
{tabrets: or, timbrels}
Thou shalt yet plant
<05193> (8799)
vines
<03754>
upon the mountains
<02022>
of Samaria
<08111>_:
the planters
<05193> (8802)
shall plant
<05193> (8804)_,
and shall eat [them] as common things
<02490> (8765)_.
{eat...: Heb. profane them}
For there shall be
<03426>
a day
<03117>_,
[that] the watchmen
<05341> (8802)
upon the mount
<02022>
Ephraim
<0669>
shall cry
<07121> (8804)_,
Arise
<06965> (8798)
ye, and let us go up
<05927> (8799)
to Zion
<06726>
unto the LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_.
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Sing
<07442> (8798)
with gladness
<08057>
for Jacob
<03290>_,
and shout
<06670> (8761)
among the chief
<07218>
of the nations
<01471>_:
publish
<08085> (8685)
ye, praise
<01984> (8761)
ye, and say
<0559> (8798)_,
O LORD
<03068>_,
save
<03467> (8685)
thy people
<05971>_,
the remnant
<07611>
of Israel
<03478>_.
Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)
them from the north
<06828>
country
<0776>_,
and gather
<06908> (8765)
them from the coasts
<03411>
of the earth
<0776>_,
[and] with them the blind
<05787>
and the lame
<06455>_,
the woman with child
<02030>
and her that travaileth with child
<03205> (8802)
together
<03162>_:
a great
<01419>
company
<06951>
shall return
<07725> (8799)
thither.
They shall come
<0935> (8799)
with weeping
<01065>_,
and with supplications
<08469>
will I lead
<02986> (8686)
them: I will cause them to walk
<03212> (8686)
by the rivers
<05158>
of waters
<04325>
in a straight
<03477>
way
<01870>_,
wherein they shall not stumble
<03782> (8735)_:
for I am a father
<01>
to Israel
<03478>_,
and Ephraim
<0669>
[is] my firstborn
<01060>_.
{supplications: or, favours}
Hear
<08085> (8798)
the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
O ye nations
<01471>_,
and declare
<05046> (8685)
[it] in the isles
<0339>
afar off
<04801>_,
and say
<0559> (8798)_,
He that scattered
<02219> (8764)
Israel
<03478>
will gather
<06908> (8762)
him, and keep
<08104> (8804)
him, as a shepherd
<07462> (8802)
[doth] his flock
<05739>_.
For the LORD
<03068>
hath redeemed
<06299> (8804)
Jacob
<03290>_,
and ransomed
<01350> (8804)
him from the hand
<03027>
of [him that was] stronger
<02389>
than he.
Therefore they shall come
<0935> (8804)
and sing
<07442> (8765)
in the height
<04791>
of Zion
<06726>_,
and shall flow together
<05102> (8804)
to the goodness
<02898>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
for wheat
<01715>_,
and for wine
<08492>_,
and for oil
<03323>_,
and for the young
<01121>
of the flock
<06629>
and of the herd
<01241>_:
and their soul
<05315>
shall be as a watered
<07302>
garden
<01588>_;
and they shall not sorrow
<01669> (8800)
any more
<03254> (8686)
at all.
Then shall the virgin
<01330>
rejoice
<08055> (8799)
in the dance
<04234>_,
both young men
<0970>
and old
<02205>
together
<03162>_:
for I will turn
<02015> (8804)
their mourning
<060>
into joy
<08342>_,
and will comfort
<05162> (8765)
them, and make them rejoice
<08055> (8765)
from their sorrow
<03015>_.
And I will satiate
<07301> (8765)
the soul
<05315>
of the priests
<03548>
with fatness
<01880>_,
and my people
<05971>
shall be satisfied
<07646> (8799)
with my goodness
<02898>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
A voice
<06963>
was heard
<08085> (8738)
in Ramah
<07414>_,
lamentation
<05092>_,
[and] bitter
<08563>
weeping
<01065>_;
Rahel
<07354>
weeping
<01058> (8764)
for her children
<01121>
refused
<03985> (8765)
to be comforted
<05162> (8736)
for her children
<01121>_,
because they [were] not.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Refrain
<04513> (8798)
thy voice
<06963>
from weeping
<01065>_,
and thine eyes
<05869>
from tears
<01832>_:
for thy work
<06468>
shall be
<03426>
rewarded
<07939>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
and they shall come again
<07725> (8804)
from the land
<0776>
of the enemy
<0341> (8802)_.
And there is
<03426>
hope
<08615>
in thine end
<0319>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that thy children
<01121>
shall come again
<07725> (8804)
to their own border
<01366>_.
I have surely
<08085> (8800)
heard
<08085> (8804)
Ephraim
<0669>
bemoaning
<05110> (8711)
himself [thus]; Thou hast chastised
<03256> (8765)
me, and I was chastised
<03256> (8735)_,
as a bullock
<05695>
unaccustomed
<03808> <03925> (8795)
[to the yoke]: turn
<07725> (8685)
thou me, and I shall be turned
<07725> (8799)_;
for thou [art] the LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>_.
Surely after
<0310>
that I was turned
<07725> (8800)_,
I repented
<05162> (8738)_;
and after
<0310>
that I was instructed
<03045> (8736)_,
I smote
<05606> (8804)
upon [my] thigh
<03409>_:
I was ashamed
<0954> (8804)_,
yea, even confounded
<03637> (8738)_,
because I did bear
<05375> (8804)
the reproach
<02781>
of my youth
<05271>_.
[Is] Ephraim
<0669>
my dear
<03357>
son
<01121>_?
[is he] a pleasant
<08191>
child
<03206>_?
for since
<01767>
I spake
<01696> (8763)
against him, I do earnestly
<02142> (8800)
remember
<02142> (8799)
him still: therefore my bowels
<04578>
are troubled
<01993> (8804)
for him; I will surely
<07355> (8763)
have mercy
<07355> (8762)
upon him, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
{are...: Heb. sound}
Set thee up
<05324> (8685)
waymarks
<06725>_,
make
<07760> (8798)
thee high heaps
<08564>_:
set
<07896> (8798)
thine heart
<03820>
toward the highway
<04546>_,
[even] the way
<01870>
[which] thou wentest
<01980> (8804)_:
turn again
<07725> (8798)_,
O virgin
<01330>
of Israel
<03478>_,
turn again
<07725> (8798)
to these thy cities
<05892>_.
How long wilt thou go about
<02559> (8691)_,
O thou backsliding
<07728>
daughter
<01323>_?
for the LORD
<03068>
hath created
<01254> (8804)
a new thing
<02319>
in the earth
<0776>_,
A woman
<05347>
shall compass
<05437> (8779)
a man
<01397>_.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
As yet they shall use
<0559> (8799)
this speech
<01697>
in the land
<0776>
of Judah
<03063>
and in the cities
<05892>
thereof, when I shall bring again
<07725> (8800)
their captivity
<07622>_;
The LORD
<03068>
bless
<01288> (8762)
thee, O habitation
<05116>
of justice
<06664>_,
[and] mountain
<02022>
of holiness
<06944>_.
And there shall dwell
<03427> (8804)
in Judah
<03063>
itself, and in all the cities
<05892>
thereof together
<03162>_,
husbandmen
<0406>_,
and they [that] go forth
<05265> (8804)
with flocks
<05739>_.
For I have satiated
<07301> (8689)
the weary
<05889>
soul
<05315>_,
and I have replenished
<04390> (8765)
every sorrowful
<01669> (8804)
soul
<05315>_.
Upon this I awaked
<06974> (8689)_,
and beheld
<07200> (8799)_;
and my sleep
<08142>
was sweet
<06149> (8804)
unto me.
Behold, the days
<03117>
come
<0935> (8802)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that I will sow
<02232> (8804)
the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>
and the house
<01004>
of Judah
<03063>
with the seed
<02233>
of man
<0120>_,
and with the seed
<02233>
of beast
<0929>_.
And it shall come to pass, [that] like as I have watched over
<08245> (8804)
them, to pluck up
<05428> (8800)_,
and to break down
<05422> (8800)_,
and to throw down
<02040> (8800)_,
and to destroy
<06> (8687)_,
and to afflict
<07489> (8687)_;
so will I watch over
<08245> (8799)
them, to build
<01129> (8800)_,
and to plant
<05193> (8800)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
In those days
<03117>
they shall say
<0559> (8799)
no more, The fathers
<01>
have eaten
<0398> (8804)
a sour grape
<01155>_,
and the children's
<01121>
teeth
<08127>
are set on edge
<06949> (8799)_.
But every one
<0376>
shall die
<04191> (8799)
for his own iniquity
<05771>_:
every man
<0120>
that eateth
<0398> (8802)
the sour grape
<01155>_,
his teeth
<08127>
shall be set on edge
<06949> (8799)_.
Behold, the days
<03117>
come
<0935> (8802)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that I will make
<03772> (8804)
a new
<02319>
covenant
<01285>
with the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and with the house
<01004>
of Judah
<03063>_:
Not according to the covenant
<01285>
that I made
<03772> (8804)
with their fathers
<01>
in the day
<03117>
[that] I took
<02388> (8687)
them by the hand
<03027>
to bring them out
<03318> (8687)
of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_;
which my covenant
<01285>
they brake
<06565> (8689)_,
although I was an husband
<01166> (8804)
unto them, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_:
{although...: or, should I have continued an husband unto them?}
But this [shall be] the covenant
<01285>
that I will make
<03772> (8799)
with the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_;
After
<0310>
those days
<03117>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
I will put
<05414> (8804)
my law
<08451>
in their inward parts
<07130>_,
and write
<03789> (8799)
it in their hearts
<03820>_;
and will be their God
<0430>_,
and they shall be my people
<05971>_.
And they shall teach
<03925> (8762)
no more every man
<0376>
his neighbour
<07453>_,
and every man
<0376>
his brother
<0251>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Know
<03045> (8798)
the LORD
<03068>_:
for they shall all know
<03045> (8799)
me, from the least
<06996>
of them unto the greatest
<01419>
of them, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_:
for I will forgive
<05545> (8799)
their iniquity
<05771>_,
and I will remember
<02142> (8799)
their sin
<02403>
no more.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
which giveth
<05414> (8802)
the sun
<08121>
for a light
<0216>
by day
<03119>_,
[and] the ordinances
<02708>
of the moon
<03394>
and of the stars
<03556>
for a light
<0216>
by night
<03915>_,
which divideth
<07280> (8802)
the sea
<03220>
when the waves
<01530>
thereof roar
<01993> (8799)_;
The LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
[is] his name
<08034>_:
If those ordinances
<02706>
depart
<04185> (8799)
from before
<06440>
me, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
[then] the seed
<02233>
of Israel
<03478>
also shall cease
<07673> (8799)
from being a nation
<01471>
before
<06440>
me for ever
<03117>_.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
If heaven
<08064>
above
<04605>
can be measured
<04058> (8735)_,
and the foundations
<04146>
of the earth
<0776>
searched out
<02713> (8735)
beneath
<04295>_,
I will also cast off
<03988> (8799)
all the seed
<02233>
of Israel
<03478>
for all that they have done
<06213> (8804)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Behold, the days
<03117>
come
<0935> (8802)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that the city
<05892>
shall be built
<01129> (8738)
to the LORD
<03068>
from the tower
<04026>
of Hananeel
<02606>
unto the gate
<08179>
of the corner
<06438>_.
And the measuring
<04060>
line
<06957> (8675) <06961>
shall yet go forth
<03318> (8804)
over against it upon the hill
<01389>
Gareb
<01619>_,
and shall compass about
<05437> (8738)
to Goath
<01601>_.
And the whole valley
<06010>
of the dead bodies
<06297>_,
and of the ashes
<01880>_,
and all the fields
<07709> (8675) <08309>
unto the brook
<05158>
of Kidron
<06939>_,
unto the corner
<06438>
of the horse
<05483>
gate
<08179>
toward the east
<04217>_,
[shall be] holy
<06944>
unto the LORD
<03068>_;
it shall not be plucked up
<05428> (8735)_,
nor thrown down
<02040> (8735)
any more for ever
<05769>_.
The word
<01697>
that came to Jeremiah
<03414>
from the LORD
<03068>
in the tenth
<06224>
year
<08141>
of Zedekiah
<06667>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
which [was] the eighteenth
<08083> <06240> <08141>
year
<08141>
of Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>_.
For then the king
<04428>
of Babylon's
<0894>
army
<02428>
besieged
<06696> (8802)
Jerusalem
<03389>_:
and Jeremiah
<03414>
the prophet
<05030>
was shut up
<03607> (8803)
in the court
<02691>
of the prison
<04307>_,
which [was] in the king
<04428>
of Judah's
<03063>
house
<01004>_.
For Zedekiah
<06667>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
had shut him up
<03607> (8804)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Wherefore dost thou prophesy
<05012> (8737)_,
and say
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Behold, I will give
<05414> (8802)
this city
<05892>
into the hand
<03027>
of the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and he shall take
<03920> (8804)
it;
And Zedekiah
<06667>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
shall not escape
<04422> (8735)
out of the hand
<03027>
of the Chaldeans
<03778>_,
but shall surely
<05414> (8736)
be delivered
<05414> (8735)
into the hand
<03027>
of the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and shall speak
<01696> (8765)
with him mouth
<06310>
to mouth
<06310>_,
and his eyes
<05869>
shall behold
<07200> (8799)
his eyes
<05869>_;
And he shall lead
<03212> (8686)
Zedekiah
<06667>
to Babylon
<0894>_,
and there shall he be until I visit
<06485> (8800)
him, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_:
though ye fight
<03898> (8735)
with the Chaldeans
<03778>_,
ye shall not prosper
<06743> (8686)_.
And Jeremiah
<03414>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
The word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came unto me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Behold, Hanameel
<02601>
the son
<01121>
of Shallum
<07967>
thine uncle
<01730>
shall come
<0935> (8802)
unto thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Buy
<07069> (8798)
thee my field
<07704>
that [is] in Anathoth
<06068>_:
for the right
<04941>
of redemption
<01353>
[is] thine to buy
<07069> (8800)
[it].
So Hanameel
<02601>
mine uncle's
<01730>
son
<01121>
came
<0935> (8799)
to me in the court
<02691>
of the prison
<04307>
according to the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto me, Buy
<07069> (8798)
my field
<07704>_,
I pray thee, that [is] in Anathoth
<06068>_,
which [is] in the country
<0776>
of Benjamin
<01144>_:
for the right
<04941>
of inheritance
<03425>
[is] thine, and the redemption
<01353>
[is] thine; buy
<07069> (8798)
[it] for thyself. Then I knew
<03045> (8799)
that this [was] the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
And I bought
<07069> (8799)
the field
<07704>
of Hanameel
<02601>
my uncle's
<01730>
son
<01121>_,
that [was] in Anathoth
<06068>_,
and weighed
<08254> (8799)
him the money
<03701>_,
[even] seventeen
<07651> <06235>
shekels
<08255>
of silver
<03701>_.
{seventeen...: or, seven shekels and ten pieces of silver}
And I subscribed
<03789> (8799)
the evidence
<05612>_,
and sealed
<02856> (8799)
[it], and took
<05749> (8686)
witnesses
<05707>_,
and weighed
<08254> (8799)
[him] the money
<03701>
in the balances
<03976>_.
{subscribed...: Heb. wrote in the book}
So I took
<03947> (8799)
the evidence
<05612>
of the purchase
<04736>_,
[both] that which was sealed
<02856> (8803)
[according] to the law
<04687>
and custom
<02706>_,
and that which was open
<01540> (8803)_:
And I gave
<05414> (8799)
the evidence
<05612>
of the purchase
<04736>
unto Baruch
<01263>
the son
<01121>
of Neriah
<05374>_,
the son
<01121>
of Maaseiah
<04271>_,
in the sight
<05869>
of Hanameel
<02601>
mine uncle's
<01730>
[son], and in the presence
<05869>
of the witnesses
<05707>
that subscribed
<03789> (8802)
the book
<05612>
of the purchase
<04736>_,
before
<05869>
all the Jews
<03064>
that sat
<03427> (8802)
in the court
<02691>
of the prison
<04307>_.
And I charged
<06680> (8762)
Baruch
<01263>
before
<05869>
them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Take
<03947> (8800)
these evidences
<05612>_,
this evidence
<05612>
of the purchase
<04736>_,
both which is sealed
<02856> (8803)_,
and this evidence
<05612>
which is open
<01540> (8803)_;
and put
<05414> (8804)
them in an earthen
<02789>
vessel
<03627>_,
that they may continue
<05975> (8799)
many
<07227>
days
<03117>_.
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Houses
<01004>
and fields
<07704>
and vineyards
<03754>
shall be possessed again
<07069> (8735)
in this land
<0776>_.
Now when
<0310>
I had delivered
<05414> (8800)
the evidence
<05612>
of the purchase
<04736>
unto Baruch
<01263>
the son
<01121>
of Neriah
<05374>_,
I prayed
<06419> (8691)
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Ah
<0162>
Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_!
behold, thou hast made
<06213> (8804)
the heaven
<08064>
and the earth
<0776>
by thy great
<01419>
power
<03581>
and stretched out
<05186> (8803)
arm
<02220>_,
[and] there is nothing
<01697>
too hard
<06381> (8735)
for thee: {too...: or, hid from thee}
Thou shewest
<06213> (8802)
lovingkindness
<02617>
unto thousands
<0505>_,
and recompensest
<07999> (8764)
the iniquity
<05771>
of the fathers
<01>
into the bosom
<02436>
of their children
<01121>
after
<0310>
them: the Great
<01419>_,
the Mighty
<01368>
God
<0410>_,
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
[is] his name
<08034>_,
Great
<01419>
in counsel
<06098>_,
and mighty
<07227>
in work
<05950>_:
for thine eyes
<05869>
[are] open
<06491> (8803)
upon all the ways
<01870>
of the sons
<01121>
of men
<0120>_:
to give
<05414> (8800)
every one
<0376>
according to his ways
<01870>_,
and according to the fruit
<06529>
of his doings
<04611>_:
{work: Heb. doing}
Which hast set
<07760> (8804)
signs
<0226>
and wonders
<04159>
in the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
[even] unto this day
<03117>_,
and in Israel
<03478>_,
and among [other] men
<0120>_;
and hast made
<06213> (8799)
thee a name
<08034>_,
as at this day
<03117>_;
And hast brought forth
<03318> (8686)
thy people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>
out of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>
with signs
<0226>_,
and with wonders
<04159>_,
and with a strong
<02389>
hand
<03027>_,
and with a stretched out
<05186> (8803)
arm
<0248>_,
and with great
<01419>
terror
<04172>_;
And hast given
<05414> (8799)
them this land
<0776>_,
which thou didst swear
<07650> (8738)
to their fathers
<01>
to give
<05414> (8800)
them, a land
<0776>
flowing
<02100> (8802)
with milk
<02461>
and honey
<01706>_;
And they came in
<0935> (8799)_,
and possessed
<03423> (8799)
it; but they obeyed
<08085> (8804)
not thy voice
<06963>_,
neither walked
<01980> (8804)
in thy law
<08451>_;
they have done
<06213> (8804)
nothing of all that thou commandedst
<06680> (8765)
them to do
<06213> (8800)_:
therefore thou hast caused all this evil
<07451>
to come
<07122> (8686)
upon them:
Behold the mounts
<05550>_,
they are come
<0935> (8804)
unto the city
<05892>
to take
<03920> (8800)
it; and the city
<05892>
is given
<05414> (8738)
into the hand
<03027>
of the Chaldeans
<03778>_,
that fight
<03898> (8737)
against it, because
<06440>
of the sword
<02719>_,
and of the famine
<07458>_,
and of the pestilence
<01698>_:
and what thou hast spoken
<01696> (8765)
is come to pass; and, behold, thou seest
<07200> (8802)
[it]. {mounts: or, engines of shot}
And thou hast said
<0559> (8804)
unto me, O Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_,
Buy
<07069> (8798)
thee the field
<07704>
for money
<03701>_,
and take
<05749> (8685)
witnesses
<05707>_;
for the city
<05892>
is given
<05414> (8738)
into the hand
<03027>
of the Chaldeans
<03778>_.
{for the: or, though the}
Then came the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Behold, I [am] the LORD
<03068>_,
the God
<0430>
of all flesh
<01320>_:
is there any thing
<01697>
too hard
<06381> (8735)
for me?
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Behold, I will give
<05414> (8802)
this city
<05892>
into the hand
<03027>
of the Chaldeans
<03778>_,
and into the hand
<03027>
of Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and he shall take
<03920> (8804)
it:
And the Chaldeans
<03778>_,
that fight
<03898> (8737)
against this city
<05892>_,
shall come
<0935> (8804)
and set
<03341> (8689)
fire
<0784>
on this city
<05892>_,
and burn
<08313> (8804)
it with the houses
<01004>_,
upon whose roofs
<01406>
they have offered incense
<06999> (8765)
unto Baal
<01168>_,
and poured out
<05258> (8689)
drink offerings
<05262>
unto other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_,
to provoke me to anger
<03707> (8687)_.
For the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
and the children
<01121>
of Judah
<03063>
have only done
<06213> (8802)
evil
<07451>
before
<05869>
me from their youth
<05271>_:
for the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
have only provoked me to anger
<03707> (8688)
with the work
<04639>
of their hands
<03027>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
For this city
<05892>
hath been to me [as] a provocation of mine anger
<0639>
and of my fury
<02534>
from the day
<03117>
that they built
<01129> (8804)
it even unto this day
<03117>_;
that I should remove
<05493> (8687)
it from before my face
<06440>_,
{a provocation...: Heb. for my anger}
Because of all the evil
<07451>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
and of the children
<01121>
of Judah
<03063>_,
which they have done
<06213> (8804)
to provoke me to anger
<03707> (8687)_,
they, their kings
<04428>_,
their princes
<08269>_,
their priests
<03548>_,
and their prophets
<05030>_,
and the men
<0376>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And they have turned
<06437> (8799)
unto me the back
<06203>_,
and not the face
<06440>_:
though I taught
<03925> (8763)
them, rising up early
<07925> (8687)
and teaching
<03925> (8763)
[them], yet they have not hearkened
<08085> (8802)
to receive
<03947> (8800)
instruction
<04148>_.
{back: Heb. neck}
But they set
<07760> (8799)
their abominations
<08251>
in the house
<01004>_,
which is called
<07121> (8738)
by my name
<08034>_,
to defile
<02930> (8763)
it.
And they built
<01129> (8799)
the high places
<01116>
of Baal
<01168>_,
which [are] in the valley
<01516>
of the son
<01121>
of Hinnom
<02011>_,
to cause their sons
<01121>
and their daughters
<01323>
to pass
<05674> (8687)
through [the fire] unto Molech
<04432>_;
which I commanded
<06680> (8765)
them not, neither came
<05927> (8804)
it into my mind
<03820>_,
that they should do
<06213> (8800)
this abomination
<08441>_,
to cause Judah
<03063>
to sin
<02398> (8687)_.
And now therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
concerning this city
<05892>_,
whereof ye say
<0559> (8802)_,
It shall be delivered
<05414> (8738)
into the hand
<03027>
of the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>
by the sword
<02719>_,
and by the famine
<07458>_,
and by the pestilence
<01698>_;
Behold, I will gather them out
<06908> (8764)
of all countries
<0776>_,
whither I have driven
<05080> (8689)
them in mine anger
<0639>_,
and in my fury
<02534>_,
and in great
<01419>
wrath
<07110>_;
and I will bring them again
<07725> (8689)
unto this place
<04725>_,
and I will cause them to dwell
<03427> (8689)
safely
<0983>_:
And they shall be my people
<05971>_,
and I will be their God
<0430>_:
And I will give
<05414> (8804)
them one
<0259>
heart
<03820>_,
and one
<0259>
way
<01870>_,
that they may fear
<03372> (8800)
me for ever
<03117>_,
for the good
<02896>
of them, and of their children
<01121>
after
<0310>
them: {for ever: Heb. all days}
And I will make
<03772> (8804)
an everlasting
<05769>
covenant
<01285>
with them, that I will not turn away
<07725> (8799)
from them
<0310>_,
to do them good
<03190> (8687)_;
but I will put
<05414> (8799)
my fear
<03374>
in their hearts
<03824>_,
that they shall not depart
<05493> (8800)
from me. {from them: Heb. from after them}
Yea, I will rejoice
<07797> (8804)
over them to do them good
<02895> (8687)_,
and I will plant
<05193> (8804)
them in this land
<0776>
assuredly
<0571>
with my whole heart
<03820>
and with my whole soul
<05315>_.
{assuredly: Heb. in truth, or, stability}
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Like as I have brought
<0935> (8689)
all this great
<01419>
evil
<07451>
upon this people
<05971>_,
so will I bring
<0935> (8688)
upon them all the good
<02896>
that I have promised
<01696> (8802)
them.
And fields
<07704>
shall be bought
<07069> (8738)
in this land
<0776>_,
whereof ye say
<0559> (8802)_,
[It is] desolate
<08077>
without man
<0120>
or beast
<0929>_;
it is given
<05414> (8738)
into the hand
<03027>
of the Chaldeans
<03778>_.
Men shall buy
<07069> (8799)
fields
<07704>
for money
<03701>_,
and subscribe
<03789> (8800)
evidences
<05612>_,
and seal
<02856> (8800)
[them], and take
<05749> (8687)
witnesses
<05707>
in the land
<0776>
of Benjamin
<01144>_,
and in the places about
<05439>
Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and in the cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and in the cities
<05892>
of the mountains
<02022>_,
and in the cities
<05892>
of the valley
<08219>_,
and in the cities
<05892>
of the south
<05045>_:
for I will cause their captivity
<07622>
to return
<07725> (8686)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Moreover the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came unto Jeremiah
<03414>
the second
<08145>
time, while he was yet shut up
<06113> (8803)
in the court
<02691>
of the prison
<04307>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
the maker
<06213> (8802)
thereof, the LORD
<03068>
that formed
<03335> (8802)
it, to establish
<03559> (8687)
it; the LORD
<03068>
[is] his name
<08034>_;
{the LORD is: or, JEHOVAH, etc}
Call
<07121> (8798)
unto me, and I will answer
<06030> (8799)
thee, and shew
<05046> (8686)
thee great
<01419>
and mighty things
<01219> (8803)_,
which thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
not. {mighty: or, hidden}
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
concerning the houses
<01004>
of this city
<05892>_,
and concerning the houses
<01004>
of the kings
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
which are thrown down
<05422> (8803)
by the mounts
<05550>_,
and by the sword
<02719>_;
They come
<0935> (8802)
to fight
<03898> (8736)
with the Chaldeans
<03778>_,
but [it is] to fill
<04390> (8763)
them with the dead bodies
<06297>
of men
<0120>_,
whom I have slain
<05221> (8689)
in mine anger
<0639>
and in my fury
<02534>_,
and for all whose wickedness
<07451>
I have hid
<05641> (8689)
my face
<06440>
from this city
<05892>_.
Behold, I will bring
<05927> (8688)
it health
<0724>
and cure
<04832>_,
and I will cure
<07495> (8804)
them, and will reveal
<01540> (8765)
unto them the abundance
<06283>
of peace
<07965>
and truth
<0571>_.
And I will cause the captivity
<07622>
of Judah
<03063>
and the captivity
<07622>
of Israel
<03478>
to return
<07725> (8689)_,
and will build
<01129> (8804)
them, as at the first
<07223>_.
And I will cleanse
<02891> (8765)
them from all their iniquity
<05771>_,
whereby they have sinned
<02398> (8804)
against me; and I will pardon
<05545> (8804)
all their iniquities
<05771>_,
whereby they have sinned
<02398> (8804)_,
and whereby they have transgressed
<06586> (8804)
against me.
And it shall be to me a name
<08034>
of joy
<08342>_,
a praise
<08416>
and an honour
<08597>
before all the nations
<01471>
of the earth
<0776>_,
which shall hear
<08085> (8799)
all the good
<02896>
that I do
<06213> (8802)
unto them: and they shall fear
<06342> (8804)
and tremble
<07264> (8804)
for all the goodness
<02896>
and for all the prosperity
<07965>
that I procure
<06213> (8802)
unto it.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Again there shall be heard
<08085> (8735)
in this place
<04725>_,
which ye say
<0559> (8802)
[shall be] desolate
<02720>
without man
<0120>
and without beast
<0929>_,
[even] in the cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and in the streets
<02351>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
that are desolate
<08074> (8737)_,
without man
<0120>_,
and without inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_,
and without beast
<0929>_,
The voice
<06963>
of joy
<08342>_,
and the voice
<06963>
of gladness
<08057>_,
the voice
<06963>
of the bridegroom
<02860>_,
and the voice
<06963>
of the bride
<03618>_,
the voice
<06963>
of them that shall say
<0559> (8802)_,
Praise
<03034> (8685)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_:
for the LORD
<03068>
[is] good
<02896>_;
for his mercy
<02617>
[endureth] for ever
<05769>_:
[and] of them that shall bring
<0935> (8688)
the sacrifice of praise
<08426>
into the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
For I will cause to return
<07725> (8686)
the captivity
<07622>
of the land
<0776>_,
as at the first
<07223>_,
saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_;
Again in this place
<04725>_,
which is desolate
<02720>
without man
<0120>
and without beast
<0929>_,
and in all the cities
<05892>
thereof, shall be an habitation
<05116>
of shepherds
<07462> (8802)
causing [their] flocks
<06629>
to lie down
<07257> (8688)_.
In the cities
<05892>
of the mountains
<02022>_,
in the cities
<05892>
of the vale
<08219>_,
and in the cities
<05892>
of the south
<05045>_,
and in the land
<0776>
of Benjamin
<01144>_,
and in the places about
<05439>
Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and in the cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>_,
shall the flocks
<06629>
pass again
<05674> (8799)
under the hands
<03027>
of him that telleth
<04487> (8802)
[them], saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Behold, the days
<03117>
come
<0935> (8802)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that I will perform
<06965> (8689)
that good
<02896>
thing
<01697>
which I have promised
<01696> (8765)
unto the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>
and to the house
<01004>
of Judah
<03063>_.
In those days
<03117>_,
and at that time
<06256>_,
will I cause the Branch
<06780>
of righteousness
<06666>
to grow up
<06779> (8686)
unto David
<01732>_;
and he shall execute
<06213> (8804)
judgment
<04941>
and righteousness
<06666>
in the land
<0776>_.
In those days
<03117>
shall Judah
<03063>
be saved
<03467> (8735)_,
and Jerusalem
<03389>
shall dwell
<07931> (8799)
safely
<0983>_:
and this [is the name] wherewith she shall be called
<07121> (8799)_,
The LORD our righteousness
<03072>_.
{The LORD...: Heb. Jehovahtsidkenu}
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
David
<01732>
shall never
<03808>
want
<03772> (8735)
a man
<0376>
to sit
<03427> (8802)
upon the throne
<03678>
of the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_;
{David...: Heb. There shall not be cut off from David}
Neither shall the priests
<03548>
the Levites
<03881>
want
<03772> (8735)
a man
<0376>
before
<06440>
me to offer
<05927> (8688)
burnt offerings
<05930>_,
and to kindle
<06999> (8688)
meat offerings
<04503>_,
and to do
<06213> (8802)
sacrifice
<02077>
continually
<03117>_.
And the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
If ye can break
<06565> (8686)
my covenant
<01285>
of the day
<03117>_,
and my covenant
<01285>
of the night
<03915>_,
and that there should not be day
<03119>
and night
<03915>
in their season
<06256>_;
[Then] may also my covenant
<01285>
be broken
<06565> (8714)
with David
<01732>
my servant
<05650>_,
that he should not have a son
<01121>
to reign
<04427> (8802)
upon his throne
<03678>_;
and with the Levites
<03881>
the priests
<03548>_,
my ministers
<08334> (8764)_.
As the host
<06635>
of heaven
<08064>
cannot be numbered
<05608> (8735)_,
neither the sand
<02344>
of the sea
<03220>
measured
<04058> (8735)_:
so will I multiply
<07235> (8686)
the seed
<02233>
of David
<01732>
my servant
<05650>_,
and the Levites
<03881>
that minister
<08334> (8764)
unto me.
Moreover the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came to Jeremiah
<03414>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Considerest
<07200> (8804)
thou not what this people
<05971>
have spoken
<01696> (8765)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The two
<08147>
families
<04940>
which the LORD
<03068>
hath chosen
<0977> (8804)_,
he hath even cast them off
<03988> (8799)_?
thus they have despised
<05006> (8799)
my people
<05971>_,
that they should be no more a nation
<01471>
before
<06440>
them.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
If my covenant
<01285>
[be] not with day
<03119>
and night
<03915>_,
[and if] I have not appointed
<07760> (8804)
the ordinances
<02708>
of heaven
<08064>
and earth
<0776>_;
Then
<01571>
will I cast away
<03988> (8799)
the seed
<02233>
of Jacob
<03290>_,
and David
<01732>
my servant
<05650>_,
[so] that I will not take
<03947> (8800)
[any] of his seed
<02233>
[to be] rulers
<04910> (8802)
over the seed
<02233>
of Abraham
<085>_,
Isaac
<03446>_,
and Jacob
<03290>_:
for I will cause their captivity
<07622>
to return
<07725> (8686) (8675) <07725> (8799)_,
and have mercy
<07355> (8765)
on them.
The word
<01697>
which came unto Jeremiah
<03414>
from the LORD
<03068>_,
when Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and all his army
<02428>_,
and all the kingdoms
<04467>
of the earth
<0776>
of his dominion
<03027> <04475>_,
and all the people
<05971>_,
fought
<03898> (8737)
against Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and against all the cities
<05892>
thereof, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
{of his...: Heb. the dominion of his hand}
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Go
<01980> (8800)
and speak
<0559> (8804)
to Zedekiah
<06667>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and tell
<0559> (8804)
him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Behold, I will give
<05414> (8802)
this city
<05892>
into the hand
<03027>
of the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and he shall burn
<08313> (8804)
it with fire
<0784>_:
And thou shalt not escape out
<04422> (8735)
of his hand
<03027>_,
but shalt surely
<08610> (8800)
be taken
<08610> (8735)_,
and delivered
<05414> (8735)
into his hand
<03027>_;
and thine eyes
<05869>
shall behold
<07200> (8799)
the eyes
<05869>
of the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and he shall speak
<01696> (8762)
with thee mouth
<06310>
to mouth
<06310>_,
and thou shalt go
<0935> (8799)
to Babylon
<0894>_.
{he shall...: Heb. his mouth shall speak to thy mouth}
Yet hear
<08085> (8798)
the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
O Zedekiah
<06667>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_;
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of thee, Thou shalt not die
<04191> (8799)
by the sword
<02719>_:
[But] thou shalt die
<04191> (8799)
in peace
<07965>_:
and with the burnings
<04955>
of thy fathers
<01>_,
the former
<07223>
kings
<04428>
which were before
<06440>
thee, so shall they burn
<08313> (8799)
[odours] for thee; and they will lament
<05594> (8799)
thee, [saying], Ah
<01945>
lord
<0113>_!
for I have pronounced
<01696> (8765)
the word
<01697>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Then Jeremiah
<03414>
the prophet
<05030>
spake
<01696> (8762)
all these words
<01697>
unto Zedekiah
<06667>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_,
When the king
<04428>
of Babylon's
<0894>
army
<02428>
fought
<03898> (8737)
against Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and against all the cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>
that were left
<03498> (8737)_,
against Lachish
<03923>_,
and against Azekah
<05825>_:
for these defenced
<04013>
cities
<05892>
remained
<07604> (8738)
of the cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>_.
[This is] the word
<01697>
that came unto Jeremiah
<03414>
from the LORD
<03068>_,
after
<0310>
that the king
<04428>
Zedekiah
<06667>
had made
<03772> (8800)
a covenant
<01285>
with all the people
<05971>
which [were] at Jerusalem
<03389>_,
to proclaim
<07121> (8800)
liberty
<01865>
unto them;
That every man
<0376>
should let his manservant
<05650>_,
and every man
<0376>
his maidservant
<08198>_,
[being] an Hebrew
<05680>
or an Hebrewess
<05680>_,
go
<07971> (8763)
free
<02670>_;
that none should serve
<05647> (8800)
himself of them, [to wit], of a Jew
<03064>
his brother
<0251>_.
Now when all the princes
<08269>_,
and all the people
<05971>_,
which had entered
<0935> (8804)
into the covenant
<01285>_,
heard
<08085> (8799)
that every one
<0376>
should let his manservant
<05650>_,
and every one
<0376>
his maidservant
<08198>_,
go
<07971> (8763)
free
<02670>_,
that none should serve
<05647> (8800)
themselves of them any more, then they obeyed
<08085> (8799)_,
and let [them] go
<07971> (8762)_.
But afterward
<0310>
they turned
<07725> (8799)_,
and caused the servants
<05650>
and the handmaids
<08198>_,
whom they had let go
<07971> (8765)
free
<02670>_,
to return
<07725> (8686)_,
and brought them into subjection
<03533> (8799) (8675) <03533> (8686)
for servants
<05650>
and for handmaids
<08198>_.
Therefore the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came to Jeremiah
<03414>
from the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
I made
<03772> (8804)
a covenant
<01285>
with your fathers
<01>
in the day
<03117>
that I brought them forth
<03318> (8687)
out of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
out of the house
<01004>
of bondmen
<05650>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
At the end
<07093>
of seven
<07651>
years
<08141>
let ye go
<07971> (8762)
every man
<0376>
his brother
<0251>
an Hebrew
<05680>_,
which hath been sold
<04376> (8735)
unto thee; and when he hath served
<05647> (8804)
thee six
<08337>
years
<08141>_,
thou shalt let him go
<07971> (8765)
free
<02670>
from thee: but your fathers
<01>
hearkened
<08085> (8804)
not unto me, neither inclined
<05186> (8689)
their ear
<0241>_.
{hath been...: or, hath sold himself}
And ye were now
<03117>
turned
<07725> (8799)_,
and had done
<06213> (8799)
right
<03477>
in my sight
<05869>_,
in proclaiming
<07121> (8800)
liberty
<01865>
every man
<0376>
to his neighbour
<07453>_;
and ye had made
<03772> (8799)
a covenant
<01285>
before
<06440>
me in the house
<01004>
which is called
<07121> (8738)
by my name
<08034>_:
{now: Heb. to day} {which...: Heb. whereupon my name is called}
But ye turned
<07725> (8799)
and polluted
<02490> (8762)
my name
<08034>_,
and caused every man
<0376>
his servant
<05650>_,
and every man
<0376>
his handmaid
<08198>_,
whom ye had set
<07971> (8765)
at liberty
<02670>
at their pleasure
<05315>_,
to return
<07725> (8686)_,
and brought them into subjection
<03533> (8799)_,
to be unto you for servants
<05650>
and for handmaids
<08198>_.
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Ye have not hearkened
<08085> (8804)
unto me, in proclaiming
<07121> (8800)
liberty
<01865>_,
every one
<0376>
to his brother
<0251>_,
and every man
<0376>
to his neighbour
<07453>_:
behold, I proclaim
<07121> (8802)
a liberty
<01865>
for you, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
to the sword
<02719>_,
to the pestilence
<01698>_,
and to the famine
<07458>_;
and I will make
<05414> (8804)
you to be removed
<02189> (8675) <02113>
into all the kingdoms
<04467>
of the earth
<0776>_.
{to be...: Heb. for a removing}
And I will give
<05414> (8804)
the men
<0582>
that have transgressed
<05674> (8802)
my covenant
<01285>_,
which have not performed
<06965> (8689)
the words
<01697>
of the covenant
<01285>
which they had made
<03772> (8804)
before
<06440>
me, when they cut
<03772> (8804)
the calf
<05695>
in twain
<08147>_,
and passed
<05674> (8799)
between the parts
<01335>
thereof,
The princes
<08269>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and the princes
<08269>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
the eunuchs
<05631>_,
and the priests
<03548>_,
and all the people
<05971>
of the land
<0776>_,
which passed
<05674> (8802)
between the parts
<01335>
of the calf
<05695>_;
I will even give
<05414> (8804)
them into the hand
<03027>
of their enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
and into the hand
<03027>
of them that seek
<01245> (8764)
their life
<05315>_:
and their dead bodies
<05038>
shall be for meat
<03978>
unto the fowls
<05775>
of the heaven
<08064>_,
and to the beasts
<0929>
of the earth
<0776>_.
And Zedekiah
<06667>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
and his princes
<08269>
will I give
<05414> (8799)
into the hand
<03027>
of their enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
and into the hand
<03027>
of them that seek
<01245> (8764)
their life
<05315>_,
and into the hand
<03027>
of the king
<04428>
of Babylon's
<0894>
army
<02428>_,
which are gone up
<05927> (8802)
from you.
Behold, I will command
<06680> (8764)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
and cause them to return
<07725> (8689)
to this city
<05892>_;
and they shall fight
<03898> (8738)
against it, and take
<03920> (8804)
it, and burn
<08313> (8804)
it with fire
<0784>_:
and I will make
<05414> (8799)
the cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>
a desolation
<08077>
without an inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_.
The word
<01697>
which came unto Jeremiah
<03414>
from the LORD
<03068>
in the days
<03117>
of Jehoiakim
<03079>
the son
<01121>
of Josiah
<02977>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Go
<01980> (8800)
unto the house
<01004>
of the Rechabites
<07397>_,
and speak
<01696> (8765)
unto them, and bring
<0935> (8689)
them into the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
into one
<0259>
of the chambers
<03957>_,
and give them wine
<03196>
to drink
<08248> (8689)_.
Then I took
<03947> (8799)
Jaazaniah
<02970>
the son
<01121>
of Jeremiah
<03414>_,
the son
<01121>
of Habaziniah
<02262>_,
and his brethren
<0251>_,
and all his sons
<01121>_,
and the whole house
<01004>
of the Rechabites
<07397>_;
And I brought
<0935> (8686)
them into the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
into the chamber
<03957>
of the sons
<01121>
of Hanan
<02605>_,
the son
<01121>
of Igdaliah
<03012>_,
a man
<0376>
of God
<0430>_,
which [was] by
<0681>
the chamber
<03957>
of the princes
<08269>_,
which [was] above
<04605>
the chamber
<03957>
of Maaseiah
<04641>
the son
<01121>
of Shallum
<07967>_,
the keeper
<08104> (8802)
of the door
<05592>_:
{door: Heb. threshold, or, vessel}
And I set
<05414> (8799)
before
<06440>
the sons
<01121>
of the house
<01004>
of the Rechabites
<07397>
pots
<01375>
full
<04392>
of wine
<03196>_,
and cups
<03563>_,
and I said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Drink
<08354> (8798)
ye wine
<03196>_.
But they said
<0559> (8799)_,
We will drink
<08354> (8799)
no wine
<03196>_:
for Jonadab
<03122>
the son
<01121>
of Rechab
<07394>
our father
<01>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
us, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Ye shall drink
<08354> (8799)
no wine
<03196>_,
[neither ye], nor your sons
<01121>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_:
Neither shall ye build
<01129> (8799)
house
<01004>_,
nor sow
<02232> (8799)
seed
<02233>_,
nor plant
<05193> (8799)
vineyard
<03754>_,
nor have [any]: but all your days
<03117>
ye shall dwell
<03427> (8799)
in tents
<0168>_;
that ye may live
<02421> (8799)
many
<07227>
days
<03117>
in
<06440>
the land
<0127>
where ye [be] strangers
<01481> (8802)_.
Thus have we obeyed
<08085> (8799)
the voice
<06963>
of Jonadab
<03082>
the son
<01121>
of Rechab
<07394>
our father
<01>
in all that he hath charged
<06680> (8765)
us, to drink
<08354> (8800)
no wine
<03196>
all our days
<03117>_,
we, our wives
<0802>_,
our sons
<01121>_,
nor our daughters
<01323>_;
Nor to build
<01129> (8800)
houses
<01004>
for us to dwell in
<03427> (8800)_:
neither have we vineyard
<03754>_,
nor field
<07704>_,
nor seed
<02233>_:
But we have dwelt in
<03427> (8799)
tents
<0168>_,
and have obeyed
<08085> (8799)_,
and done
<06213> (8799)
according to all that Jonadab
<03122>
our father
<01>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
us.
But it came to pass, when Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>
came up
<05927> (8800)
into the land
<0776>_,
that we said
<0559> (8799)_,
Come
<0935> (8798)_,
and let us go
<0935> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>
for fear
<06440>
of the army
<02428>
of the Chaldeans
<03778>_,
and for fear
<06440>
of the army
<02428>
of the Syrians
<0758>_:
so we dwell
<03427> (8799)
at Jerusalem
<03389>_.
Then came the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Go
<01980> (8800)
and tell
<0559> (8804)
the men
<0376>
of Judah
<03063>
and the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
Will ye not receive
<03947> (8799)
instruction
<04148>
to hearken
<08085> (8800)
to my words
<01697>_?
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
The words
<01697>
of Jonadab
<03082>
the son
<01121>
of Rechab
<07394>_,
that he commanded
<06680> (8765)
his sons
<01121>
not to drink
<08354> (8800)
wine
<03196>_,
are performed
<06965> (8717)_;
for unto this day
<03117>
they drink
<08354> (8804)
none, but obey
<08085> (8804)
their father's
<01>
commandment
<04687>_:
notwithstanding I have spoken
<01696> (8765)
unto you, rising early
<07925> (8687)
and speaking
<01696> (8763)_;
but ye hearkened
<08085> (8804)
not unto me.
I have sent
<07971> (8799)
also unto you all my servants
<05650>
the prophets
<05030>_,
rising up early
<07925> (8687)
and sending
<07971> (8800)
[them], saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Return
<07725> (8798)
ye now every man
<0376>
from his evil
<07451>
way
<01870>_,
and amend
<03190> (8685)
your doings
<04611>_,
and go
<03212> (8799)
not after
<0310>
other
<0312>
gods
<0430>
to serve
<05647> (8800)
them, and ye shall dwell in
<03427> (8798)
the land
<0127>
which I have given
<05414> (8804)
to you and to your fathers
<01>_:
but ye have not inclined
<05186> (8689)
your ear
<0241>_,
nor hearkened
<08085> (8804)
unto me.
Because the sons
<01121>
of Jonadab
<03082>
the son
<01121>
of Rechab
<07394>
have performed
<06965> (8689)
the commandment
<04687>
of their father
<01>_,
which he commanded
<06680> (8765)
them; but this people
<05971>
hath not hearkened
<08085> (8804)
unto me:
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)
upon Judah
<03063>
and upon all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Jerusalem
<03389>
all the evil
<07451>
that I have pronounced
<01696> (8765)
against them: because I have spoken
<01696> (8765)
unto them, but they have not heard
<08085> (8804)_;
and I have called
<07121> (8799)
unto them, but they have not answered
<06030> (8804)_.
And Jeremiah
<03414>
said
<0559> (8804)
unto the house
<01004>
of the Rechabites
<07397>_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Because ye have obeyed
<08085> (8804)
the commandment
<04687>
of Jonadab
<03082>
your father
<01>_,
and kept
<08104> (8799)
all his precepts
<04687>_,
and done
<06213> (8799)
according unto all that he hath commanded
<06680> (8765)
you:
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Jonadab
<03122>
the son
<01121>
of Rechab
<07394>
shall not want
<03772> (8735)
a man
<0376>
to stand
<05975> (8802)
before
<06440>
me for ever
<03117>_.
{Jonadab...: Heb. There shall not a man be cut off from Jonadab the son of Rechab to stand, etc}
And it came to pass in the fourth
<07243>
year
<08141>
of Jehoiakim
<03079>
the son
<01121>
of Josiah
<02977>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
[that] this word
<01697>
came unto Jeremiah
<03414>
from the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Take
<03947> (8798)
thee a roll
<04039>
of a book
<05612>_,
and write
<03789> (8804)
therein all the words
<01697>
that I have spoken
<01696> (8765)
unto thee against Israel
<03478>_,
and against Judah
<03063>_,
and against all the nations
<01471>_,
from the day
<03117>
I spake
<01696> (8765)
unto thee, from the days
<03117>
of Josiah
<02977>_,
even unto this day
<03117>_.
It may be that the house
<01004>
of Judah
<03063>
will hear
<08085> (8799)
all the evil
<07451>
which I purpose
<02803> (8802)
to do
<06213> (8800)
unto them; that they may return
<07725> (8799)
every man
<0376>
from his evil
<07451>
way
<01870>_;
that I may forgive
<05545> (8804)
their iniquity
<05771>
and their sin
<02403>_.
Then Jeremiah
<03414>
called
<07121> (8799)
Baruch
<01263>
the son
<01121>
of Neriah
<05374>_:
and Baruch
<01263>
wrote
<03789> (8799)
from the mouth
<06310>
of Jeremiah
<03414>
all the words
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
which he had spoken
<01696> (8765)
unto him, upon a roll
<04039>
of a book
<05612>_.
And Jeremiah
<03414>
commanded
<06680> (8762)
Baruch
<01263>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
I [am] shut up
<06113> (8803)_;
I cannot
<03201> (8799)
go
<0935> (8800)
into the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_:
Therefore go
<0935> (8804)
thou, and read
<07121> (8804)
in the roll
<04039>_,
which thou hast written
<03789> (8804)
from my mouth
<06310>_,
the words
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
in the ears
<0241>
of the people
<05971>
in the LORD'S
<03068>
house
<01004>
upon the fasting
<06685>
day
<03117>_:
and also thou shalt read
<07121> (8799)
them in the ears
<0241>
of all Judah
<03063>
that come out
<0935> (8802)
of their cities
<05892>_.
It may be they will present
<05307> (8799)
their supplication
<08467>
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
and will return
<07725> (8799)
every one
<0376>
from his evil
<07451>
way
<01870>_:
for great
<01419>
[is] the anger
<0639>
and the fury
<02534>
that the LORD
<03068>
hath pronounced
<01696> (8765)
against this people
<05971>_.
{they...: Heb. their supplication shall fail}
And Baruch
<01263>
the son
<01121>
of Neriah
<05374>
did
<06213> (8799)
according to all that Jeremiah
<03414>
the prophet
<05030>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
him, reading
<07121> (8800)
in the book
<05612>
the words
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
in the LORD'S
<03068>
house
<01004>_.
And it came to pass in the fifth
<02549>
year
<08141>
of Jehoiakim
<03079>
the son
<01121>
of Josiah
<02977>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
in the ninth
<08671>
month
<02320>_,
[that] they proclaimed
<07121> (8804)
a fast
<06685>
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
to all the people
<05971>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and to all the people
<05971>
that came
<0935> (8802)
from the cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>
unto Jerusalem
<03389>_.
Then read
<07121> (8799)
Baruch
<01263>
in the book
<05612>
the words
<01697>
of Jeremiah
<03414>
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
in the chamber
<03957>
of Gemariah
<01587>
the son
<01121>
of Shaphan
<08227>
the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,
in the higher
<05945>
court
<02691>_,
at the entry
<06607>
of the new
<02319>
gate
<08179>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
house
<01004>_,
in the ears
<0241>
of all the people
<05971>_.
{entry: or, door}
When Michaiah
<04321>
the son
<01121>
of Gemariah
<01587>_,
the son
<01121>
of Shaphan
<08227>_,
had heard
<08085> (8799)
out of the book
<05612>
all the words
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
Then he went down
<03381> (8799)
into the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>_,
into the scribe's
<05608> (8802)
chamber
<03957>_:
and, lo, all the princes
<08269>
sat
<03427> (8802)
there, [even] Elishama
<0476>
the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,
and Delaiah
<01806>
the son
<01121>
of Shemaiah
<08098>_,
and Elnathan
<0494>
the son
<01121>
of Achbor
<05907>_,
and Gemariah
<01587>
the son
<01121>
of Shaphan
<08227>_,
and Zedekiah
<06667>
the son
<01121>
of Hananiah
<02608>_,
and all the princes
<08269>_.
Then Michaiah
<04321>
declared
<05046> (8686)
unto them all the words
<01697>
that he had heard
<08085> (8804)_,
when Baruch
<01263>
read
<07121> (8800)
the book
<05612>
in the ears
<0241>
of the people
<05971>_.
Therefore all the princes
<08269>
sent
<07971> (8799)
Jehudi
<03065>
the son
<01121>
of Nethaniah
<05418>_,
the son
<01121>
of Shelemiah
<08018>_,
the son
<01121>
of Cushi
<03570>_,
unto Baruch
<01263>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Take
<03947> (8798)
in thine hand
<03027>
the roll
<04039>
wherein thou hast read
<07121> (8804)
in the ears
<0241>
of the people
<05971>_,
and come
<03212> (8798)_.
So Baruch
<01263>
the son
<01121>
of Neriah
<05374>
took
<03947> (8799)
the roll
<04039>
in his hand
<03027>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
unto them.
And they said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Sit down
<03427> (8798)
now, and read
<07121> (8798)
it in our ears
<0241>_.
So Baruch
<01263>
read
<07121> (8799)
[it] in their ears
<0241>_.
Now it came to pass, when they had heard
<08085> (8800)
all the words
<01697>_,
they were afraid
<06342> (8804)
both
<0413>
one
<0376>
and other
<07453>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto Baruch
<01263>_,
We will surely
<05046> (8687)
tell
<05046> (8686)
the king
<04428>
of all these words
<01697>_.
And they asked
<07592> (8804)
Baruch
<01263>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Tell
<05046> (8685)
us now, How didst thou write
<03789> (8804)
all these words
<01697>
at his mouth
<06310>_?
Then Baruch
<01263>
answered
<0559> (8799)
them, He pronounced
<07121> (8799)
all these words
<01697>
unto me with his mouth
<06310>_,
and I wrote
<03789> (8802)
[them] with ink
<01773>
in the book
<05612>_.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
the princes
<08269>
unto Baruch
<01263>_,
Go
<03212> (8798)_,
hide
<05641> (8734)
thee, thou and Jeremiah
<03414>_;
and let no man
<0376>
know
<03045> (8799)
where
<0375>
ye be.
And they went in
<0935> (8799)
to the king
<04428>
into the court
<02691>_,
but they laid up
<06485> (8689)
the roll
<04039>
in the chamber
<03957>
of Elishama
<0476>
the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,
and told
<05046> (8686)
all the words
<01697>
in the ears
<0241>
of the king
<04428>_.
So the king
<04428>
sent
<07971> (8799)
Jehudi
<03065>
to fetch
<03947> (8800)
the roll
<04039>_:
and he took
<03947> (8799)
it out of Elishama
<0476>
the scribe's
<05608> (8802)
chamber
<03957>_.
And Jehudi
<03065>
read
<07121> (8799)
it in the ears
<0241>
of the king
<04428>_,
and in the ears
<0241>
of all the princes
<08269>
which stood
<05975> (8802)
beside
<05921>
the king
<04428>_.
Now the king
<04428>
sat
<03427> (8802)
in the winterhouse
<01004> <02779>
in the ninth
<08671>
month
<02320>_:
and [there was a fire] on the hearth
<0254>
burning
<01197> (8794)
before
<06440>
him.
And it came to pass, [that] when Jehudi
<03065>
had read
<07121> (8800)
three
<07969>
or four
<0702>
leaves
<01817>_,
he cut
<07167> (8799)
it with the penknife
<08593> <05608> (8802)_,
and cast
<07993> (8687)
[it] into the fire
<0784>
that [was] on the hearth
<0254>_,
until all the roll
<04039>
was consumed
<08552> (8800)
in the fire
<0784>
that [was] on the hearth
<0254>_.
Yet they were not afraid
<06342> (8804)_,
nor rent
<07167> (8804)
their garments
<0899>_,
[neither] the king
<04428>_,
nor any of his servants
<05650>
that heard
<08085> (8802)
all these words
<01697>_.
Nevertheless Elnathan
<0494>
and Delaiah
<01806>
and Gemariah
<01587>
had made intercession
<06293> (8689)
to the king
<04428>
that he would not burn
<08313> (8800)
the roll
<04039>_:
but he would not hear
<08085> (8804)
them.
But the king
<04428>
commanded
<06680> (8762)
Jerahmeel
<03396>
the son
<01121>
of Hammelech
<04429>_,
and Seraiah
<08304>
the son
<01121>
of Azriel
<05837>_,
and Shelemiah
<08018>
the son
<01121>
of Abdeel
<05655>_,
to take
<03947> (8800)
Baruch
<01263>
the scribe
<05608> (8802)
and Jeremiah
<03414>
the prophet
<05030>_:
but the LORD
<03068>
hid
<05641> (8686)
them. {of Hammelech: or, of the king}
Then the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came to Jeremiah
<03414>_,
after
<0310>
that the king
<04428>
had burned
<08313> (8800)
the roll
<04039>_,
and the words
<01697>
which Baruch
<01263>
wrote
<03789> (8804)
at the mouth
<06310>
of Jeremiah
<03414>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Take
<03947> (8798)
thee again
<07725> (8798)
another
<0312>
roll
<04039>_,
and write
<03789> (8798)
in it all the former
<07223>
words
<01697>
that were in the first
<07223>
roll
<04039>_,
which Jehoiakim
<03079>
the king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
hath burned
<08313> (8804)_.
And thou shalt say
<0559> (8799)
to Jehoiakim
<03079>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Thou hast burned
<08313> (8804)
this roll
<04039>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Why hast thou written
<03789> (8804)
therein, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>
shall certainly
<0935> (8800)
come
<0935> (8799)
and destroy
<07843> (8689)
this land
<0776>_,
and shall cause to cease
<07673> (8689)
from thence man
<0120>
and beast
<0929>_?
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of Jehoiakim
<03079>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_;
He shall have none to sit
<03427> (8802)
upon the throne
<03678>
of David
<01732>_:
and his dead body
<05038>
shall be cast out
<07993> (8716)
in the day
<03117>
to the heat
<02721>_,
and in the night
<03915>
to the frost
<07140>_.
And I will punish
<06485> (8804)
him and his seed
<02233>
and his servants
<05650>
for their iniquity
<05771>_;
and I will bring
<0935> (8689)
upon them, and upon the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and upon the men
<0376>
of Judah
<03063>_,
all the evil
<07451>
that I have pronounced
<01696> (8765)
against them; but they hearkened
<08085> (8804)
not. {punish: Heb. visit upon}
Then took
<03947> (8804)
Jeremiah
<03414>
another
<0312>
roll
<04039>_,
and gave
<05414> (8799)
it to Baruch
<01263>
the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,
the son
<01121>
of Neriah
<05374>_;
who wrote
<03789> (8799)
therein from the mouth
<06310>
of Jeremiah
<03414>
all the words
<01697>
of the book
<05612>
which Jehoiakim
<03079>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
had burned
<08313> (8804)
in the fire
<0784>_:
and there were added
<03254> (8738)
besides unto them many
<07227>
like
<01992>
words
<01697>_.
{like: Heb. as they}
