Jeremiah 13:1-23

13:1

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

unto me, Go
<01980> (8800)

and get
<07069> (8804)

thee a linen
<06593>

girdle
<0232>_,

and put
<07760> (8804)

it upon thy loins
<04975>_,

and put
<0935> (8686)

it not in water
<04325>_.

13:2

So I got
<07069> (8799)

a girdle
<0232>

according to the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and put
<07760> (8799)

[it] on my loins
<04975>_.

13:3

And the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

came unto me the second time
<08145>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

13:4

Take
<03947> (8798)

the girdle
<0232>

that thou hast got
<07069> (8804)_,

which [is] upon thy loins
<04975>_,

and arise
<06965> (8798)_,

go
<03212> (8798)

to Euphrates
<06578>_,

and hide
<02934> (8798)

it there in a hole
<05357>

of the rock
<05553>_.

13:5

So I went
<03212> (8799)_,

and hid
<02934> (8799)

it by Euphrates
<06578>_,

as the LORD
<03068>

commanded
<06680> (8765)

me.

13:6

And it came to pass after
<07093>

many
<07227>

days
<03117>_,

that the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto me, Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

go
<03212> (8798)

to Euphrates
<06578>_,

and take
<03947> (8798)

the girdle
<0232>

from thence, which I commanded
<06680> (8765)

thee to hide
<02934> (8800)

there.

13:7

Then I went
<03212> (8799)

to Euphrates
<06578>_,

and digged
<02658> (8799)_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

the girdle
<0232>

from the place
<04725>

where I had hid
<02934> (8804)

it: and, behold, the girdle
<0232>

was marred
<07843> (8738)_,

it was profitable
<06743> (8799)

for nothing.

13:8

Then the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

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

13:9

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

After this manner will I mar
<07843> (8686)

the pride
<01347>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and the great
<07227>

pride
<01347>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_.

13:10

This evil
<07451>

people
<05971>_,

which refuse
<03987>

to hear
<08085> (8800)

my words
<01697>_,

which walk
<01980> (8802)

in the imagination
<08307>

of their heart
<03820>_,

and walk
<03212> (8799)

after
<0310>

other
<0312>

gods
<0430>_,

to serve
<05647> (8800)

them, and to worship
<07812> (8692)

them, shall even be as this girdle
<0232>_,

which is good
<06743> (8799)

for nothing. {imagination: or, stubbornness}

13:11

For as the girdle
<0232>

cleaveth
<01692> (8799)

to the loins
<04975>

of a man
<0376>_,

so have I caused to cleave
<01692> (8689)

unto me the whole house
<01004>

of Israel
<03478>

and the whole house
<01004>

of Judah
<03063>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_;

that they might be unto me for a people
<05971>_,

and for a name
<08034>_,

and for a praise
<08416>_,

and for a glory
<08597>_:

but they would not hear
<08085> (8804)_.

13:12

Therefore thou shalt speak
<0559> (8804)

unto them this word
<01697>_;

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

Every bottle
<05035>

shall be filled
<04390> (8735)

with wine
<03196>_:

and they shall say
<0559> (8804)

unto thee, Do we not certainly
<03045> (8800)

know
<03045> (8799)

that every bottle
<05035>

shall be filled
<04390> (8735)

with wine
<03196>_?

13:13

Then shalt thou say
<0559> (8804)

unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Behold, I will fill
<04390> (8764)

all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of this land
<0776>_,

even the kings
<04428>

that sit
<03427> (8802)

upon David's
<01732>

throne
<03678>_,

and the priests
<03548>_,

and the prophets
<05030>_,

and all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of Jerusalem
<03389>_,

with drunkenness
<07943>_.

13:14

And I will dash
<05310> (8765)

them one
<0376>

against another
<0251>_,

even the fathers
<01>

and the sons
<01121>

together
<03162>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_:

I will not pity
<02550> (8799)_,

nor spare
<02347> (8799)_,

nor have mercy
<07355> (8762)_,

but destroy
<07843> (8687)

them. {one...: Heb. a man against his brother} {but...: Heb. from destroying them}

13:15

Hear
<08085> (8798)

ye, and give ear
<0238> (8685)_;

be not proud
<01361> (8799)_:

for the LORD
<03068>

hath spoken
<01696> (8765)_.

13:16

Give
<05414> (8798)

glory
<03519>

to the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_,

before he cause darkness
<02821> (8686)_,

and before your feet
<07272>

stumble
<05062> (8691)

upon the dark
<05399>

mountains
<02022>_,

and, while ye look
<06960> (8765)

for light
<0216>_,

he turn
<07760> (8804)

it into the shadow of death
<06757>_,

[and] make
<07896> (8798) (8675) <07896> (8799)

[it] gross darkness
<06205>_.

13:17

But if ye will not hear
<08085> (8799)

it, my soul
<05315>

shall weep
<01058> (8799)

in secret places
<04565>

for
<06440>

[your] pride
<01466>_;

and mine eye
<05869>

shall weep
<01830> (8799)

sore
<01830> (8800)_,

and run down
<03381> (8799)

with tears
<01832>_,

because the LORD'S
<03068>

flock
<05739>

is carried away captive
<07617> (8738)_.

13:18

Say
<0559> (8798)

unto the king
<04428>

and to the queen
<01377>_,

Humble
<08213> (8685)

yourselves, sit down
<03427> (8798)_:

for your principalities
<04761>

shall come down
<03381> (8804)_,

[even] the crown
<05850>

of your glory
<08597>_.

{principalities: or, head tires}

13:19

The cities
<05892>

of the south
<05045>

shall be shut up
<05462> (8795)_,

and none shall open
<06605> (8802)

[them]: Judah
<03063>

shall be carried away captive
<01540> (8717)

all of it, it shall be wholly
<07965>

carried away captive
<01540> (8717)_.

13:20

Lift up
<05375> (8798)

your eyes
<05869>_,

and behold
<07200> (8798)

them that come
<0935> (8802)

from the north
<06828>_:

where [is] the flock
<05739>

[that] was given
<05414> (8738)

thee, thy beautiful
<08597>

flock
<06629>_?

13:21

What wilt thou say
<0559> (8799)

when he shall punish
<06485> (8799)

thee? for thou hast taught
<03925> (8765)

them [to be] captains
<0441>_,

[and] as chief
<07218>

over thee: shall not sorrows
<02256>

take
<0270> (8799)

thee, as a woman
<0802>

in travail
<03205> (8800)_?

{punish: Heb visit upon}

13:22

And if thou say
<0559> (8799)

in thine heart
<03824>_,

Wherefore come
<07122> (8804)

these things upon me? For the greatness
<07230>

of thine iniquity
<05771>

are thy skirts
<07757>

discovered
<01540> (8738)_,

[and] thy heels
<06119>

made bare
<02554> (8738)_.

{made...: or, shall be violently taken away}

13:23

Can the Ethiopian
<03569>

change
<02015> (8799)

his skin
<05785>_,

or the leopard
<05246>

his spots
<02272>_?

[then] may
<03201> (8799)

ye also do good
<03190> (8687)_,

that are accustomed
<03928>

to do evil
<07489> (8687)_.

{accustomed: Heb. taught}
