Jeremiah 15:10--25:38

15:10
Woe
<0188>
is me, my mother
<0517>_,
that thou hast borne
<03205> (8804)
me a man
<0376>
of strife
<07379>
and a man
<0376>
of contention
<04066>
to the whole earth
<0776>_!
I have neither lent on usury
<05383> (8804)_,
nor men have lent to me on usury
<05383> (8804)_;
[yet] every one of them doth curse
<07043> (8764)
me.
15:11
The LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8804)_,
Verily
<03808> <0518>
it shall be well
<02896>
with thy remnant
<08281> (8765) (8675) <08293>_;
verily
<0518>
I will cause the enemy
<0341> (8802)
to entreat
<06293> (8689)
thee [well] in the time
<06256>
of evil
<07451>
and in the time
<06256>
of affliction
<06869>_.
{cause...: or, intreat the enemy for thee}
15:12
Shall iron
<01270>
break
<07489> (8799)
the northern
<06828>
iron
<01270>
and the steel
<05178>_?
15:13
Thy substance
<02428>
and thy treasures
<0214>
will I give
<05414> (8799)
to the spoil
<0957>
without price
<04242>_,
and [that] for all thy sins
<02403>_,
even in all thy borders
<01366>_.
15:14
And I will make [thee] to pass
<05674> (8689)
with thine enemies
<0341> (8802)
into a land
<0776>
[which] thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
not: for a fire
<0784>
is kindled
<06919> (8804)
in mine anger
<0639>_,
[which] shall burn
<03344> (8714)
upon you.
15:15
O LORD
<03068>_,
thou knowest
<03045> (8804)_:
remember
<02142> (8798)
me, and visit
<06485> (8798)
me, and revenge
<05358> (8734)
me of my persecutors
<07291> (8802)_;
take me not away
<03947> (8799)
in thy longsuffering
<0639> <0750>_:
know
<03045> (8798)
that for thy sake I have suffered
<05375> (8800)
rebuke
<02781>_.
15:16
Thy words
<01697>
were found
<04672> (8738)_,
and I did eat
<0398> (8799)
them; and thy word
<01697>
was unto me the joy
<08342>
and rejoicing
<08057>
of mine heart
<03824>_:
for I am called
<07121> (8738)
by thy name
<08034>_,
O LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of hosts
<06635>_.
{I am...: Heb. thy name is called upon me}
15:17
I sat
<03427> (8804)
not in the assembly
<05475>
of the mockers
<07832> (8764)_,
nor rejoiced
<05937> (8799)_;
I sat
<03427> (8804)
alone
<0910>
because
<06440>
of thy hand
<03027>_:
for thou hast filled
<04390> (8765)
me with indignation
<02195>_.
15:18
Why is my pain
<03511>
perpetual
<05331>_,
and my wound
<04347>
incurable
<0605> (8803)_,
[which] refuseth
<03985> (8765)
to be healed
<07495> (8736)_?
wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar
<0391>_,
[and as] waters
<04325>
[that] fail
<0539> (8738)_?
{fail: Heb. be not sure?}
15:19
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
If thou return
<07725> (8799)_,
then will I bring thee again
<07725> (8686)_,
[and] thou shalt stand
<05975> (8799)
before
<06440>
me: and if thou take forth
<03318> (8686)
the precious
<03368>
from the vile
<02151> (8802)_,
thou shalt be as my mouth
<06310>_:
let them return
<07725> (8799)
unto thee; but return
<07725> (8799)
not thou unto them.
15:20
And I will make
<05414> (8804)
thee unto this people
<05971>
a fenced
<01219> (8803)
brasen
<05178>
wall
<02346>_:
and they shall fight
<03898> (8738)
against thee, but they shall not prevail
<03201> (8799)
against thee: for I [am] with thee to save
<03467> (8687)
thee and to deliver
<05337> (8687)
thee, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
15:21
And I will deliver
<05337> (8689)
thee out of the hand
<03027>
of the wicked
<07451>_,
and I will redeem
<06299> (8804)
thee out of the hand
<03709>
of the terrible
<06184>_.
16:1
The word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came also unto me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
16:2
Thou shalt not take
<03947> (8799)
thee a wife
<0802>_,
neither shalt thou have sons
<01121>
or daughters
<01323>
in this place
<04725>_.
16:3
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
concerning the sons
<01121>
and concerning the daughters
<01323>
that are born
<03205> (8688)
in this place
<04725>_,
and concerning their mothers
<0517>
that bare
<03205> (8802)
them, and concerning their fathers
<01>
that begat
<03209>
them in this land
<0776>_;
16:4
They shall die
<04191> (8799)
of grievous
<08463>
deaths
<04463>_;
they shall not be lamented
<05594> (8735)_;
neither shall they be buried
<06912> (8735)_;
[but] they shall be as dung
<01828>
upon the face
<06440>
of the earth
<0127>_:
and they shall be consumed
<03615> (8799)
by the sword
<02719>_,
and by famine
<07458>_;
and their carcases
<05038>
shall be meat
<03978>
for the fowls
<05775>
of heaven
<08064>_,
and for the beasts
<0929>
of the earth
<0776>_.
16:5
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Enter
<0935> (8799)
not into the house
<01004>
of mourning
<04798>_,
neither go
<03212> (8799)
to lament
<05594> (8800)
nor bemoan
<05110> (8799)
them: for I have taken away
<0622> (8804)
my peace
<07965>
from this people
<05971>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
[even] lovingkindness
<02617>
and mercies
<07356>_.
{mourning: or, mourning feast}
16:6
Both the great
<01419>
and the small
<06996>
shall die
<04191> (8804)
in this land
<0776>_:
they shall not be buried
<06912> (8735)_,
neither shall [men] lament
<05594> (8799)
for them, nor cut
<01413> (8704)
themselves, nor make themselves bald
<07139> (8735)
for them:
16:7
Neither shall [men] tear
<06536> (8799)
[themselves] for them in mourning
<060>_,
to comfort
<05162> (8763)
them for the dead
<04191> (8801)_;
neither shall [men] give them the cup
<03563>
of consolation
<08575>
to drink
<08248> (8686)
for their father
<01>
or for their mother
<0517>_.
{tear...: or, break bread for them}
16:8
Thou shalt not also go
<0935> (8799)
into the house
<01004>
of feasting
<04960>_,
to sit
<03427> (8800)
with them to eat
<0398> (8800)
and to drink
<08354> (8800)_.
16:9
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Behold, I will cause to cease
<07673> (8688)
out of this place
<04725>
in your eyes
<05869>_,
and in your days
<03117>_,
the voice
<06963>
of mirth
<08342>_,
and the voice
<06963>
of gladness
<08057>_,
the voice
<06963>
of the bridegroom
<02860>_,
and the voice
<06963>
of the bride
<03618>_.
16:10
And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt shew
<05046> (8686)
this people
<05971>
all these words
<01697>_,
and they shall say
<0559> (8804)
unto thee, Wherefore hath the LORD
<03068>
pronounced
<01696> (8765)
all this great
<01419>
evil
<07451>
against us? or what [is] our iniquity
<05771>_?
or what [is] our sin
<02403>
that we have committed
<02398> (8804)
against the LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_?
16:11
Then shalt thou say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, Because your fathers
<01>
have forsaken
<05800> (8804)
me, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
and have walked
<03212> (8799)
after
<0310>
other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_,
and have served
<05647> (8799)
them, and have worshipped
<07812> (8691)
them, and have forsaken
<05800> (8804)
me, and have not kept
<08104> (8804)
my law
<08451>_;
16:12
And ye have done
<06213> (8800)
worse
<07489> (8689)
than your fathers
<01>_;
for, behold
<02009>_,
ye walk
<01980> (8802)
every one
<0376>
after
<0310>
the imagination
<08307>
of his evil
<07451>
heart
<03820>_,
that they may not hearken
<08085> (8800)
unto me: {imagination: or, stubbornness}
16:13
Therefore will I cast
<02904> (8689)
you out of this land
<0776>
into a land
<0776>
that ye know
<03045> (8804)
not, [neither] ye nor your fathers
<01>_;
and there shall ye serve
<05647> (8804)
other
<0312>
gods
<0430>
day
<03119>
and night
<03915>_;
where I will not shew
<05414> (8799)
you favour
<02594>_.
16:14
Therefore, behold, the days
<03117>
come
<0935> (8802)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that it shall no more be said
<0559> (8735)_,
The LORD
<03068>
liveth
<02416>_,
that brought up
<05927> (8689)
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
out of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_;
16:15
But, The LORD
<03068>
liveth
<02416>_,
that brought up
<05927> (8689)
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
from the land
<0776>
of the north
<06828>_,
and from all the lands
<0776>
whither he had driven
<05080> (8689)
them: and I will bring them again
<07725> (8689)
into their land
<0127>
that I gave
<05414> (8804)
unto their fathers
<01>_.
16:16
Behold, I will send
<07971> (8802)
for many
<07227>
fishers
<01771> (8675) <01728>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
and they shall fish
<01770> (8804)
them; and after
<0310>
will I send
<07971> (8799)
for many
<07227>
hunters
<06719>_,
and they shall hunt
<06679> (8804)
them from every mountain
<02022>_,
and from every hill
<01389>_,
and out of the holes
<05357>
of the rocks
<05553>_.
16:17
For mine eyes
<05869>
[are] upon all their ways
<01870>_:
they are not hid
<05641> (8738)
from my face
<06440>_,
neither is their iniquity
<05771>
hid
<06845> (8738)
from
<05048>
mine eyes
<05869>_.
16:18
And first
<07223>
I will recompense
<07999> (8765)
their iniquity
<05771>
and their sin
<02403>
double
<04932>_;
because they have defiled
<02490> (8763)
my land
<0776>_,
they have filled
<04390> (8804)
mine inheritance
<05159>
with the carcases
<05038>
of their detestable
<08251>
and abominable things
<08441>_.
16:19
O LORD
<03068>_,
my strength
<05797>_,
and my fortress
<04581>_,
and my refuge
<04498>
in the day
<03117>
of affliction
<06869>_,
the Gentiles
<01471>
shall come
<0935> (8799)
unto thee from the ends
<0657>
of the earth
<0776>_,
and shall say
<0559> (8799)_,
Surely our fathers
<01>
have inherited
<05157> (8804)
lies
<08267>_,
vanity
<01892>_,
and [things] wherein [there is] no profit
<03276> (8688)_.
16:20
Shall a man
<0120>
make
<06213> (8799)
gods
<0430>
unto himself, and they [are] no gods
<0430>_?
16:21
Therefore, behold, I will this once
<06471>
cause them to know
<03045> (8688)_,
I will cause them to know
<03045> (8686)
mine hand
<03027>
and my might
<01369>_;
and they shall know
<03045> (8804)
that my name
<08034>
[is] The LORD
<03068>_.
{The LORD: or, JEHOVAH}
17:1
The sin
<02403>
of Judah
<03063>
[is] written
<03789> (8803)
with a pen
<05842>
of iron
<01270>_,
[and] with the point
<06856>
of a diamond
<08068>_:
[it is] graven
<02790> (8803)
upon the table
<03871>
of their heart
<03820>_,
and upon the horns
<07161>
of your altars
<04196>_;
{point: Heb. nail}
17:2
Whilst their children
<01121>
remember
<02142> (8800)
their altars
<04196>
and their groves
<0842>
by the green
<07488>
trees
<06086>
upon the high
<01364>
hills
<01389>_.
17:3
O my mountain
<02042>
in the field
<07704>_,
I will give
<05414> (8799)
thy substance
<02428>
[and] all thy treasures
<0214>
to the spoil
<0957>_,
[and] thy high places
<01116>
for sin
<02403>_,
throughout all thy borders
<01366>_.
17:4
And thou, even thyself, shalt discontinue
<08058> (8804)
from thine heritage
<05159>
that I gave
<05414> (8804)
thee; and I will cause thee to serve
<05647> (8689)
thine enemies
<0341> (8802)
in the land
<0776>
which thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
not: for ye have kindled
<06919> (8804)
a fire
<0784>
in mine anger
<0639>_,
[which] shall burn
<03344> (8714)
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_.
{thyself: Heb. in thyself}
17:5
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Cursed
<0779> (8803)
[be] the man
<01397>
that trusteth
<0982> (8799)
in man
<0120>_,
and maketh
<07760> (8804)
flesh
<01320>
his arm
<02220>_,
and whose heart
<03820>
departeth
<05493> (8799)
from the LORD
<03068>_.
17:6
For he shall be like the heath
<06199>
in the desert
<06160>_,
and shall not see
<07200> (8799)
when good
<02896>
cometh
<0935> (8799)_;
but shall inhabit
<07931> (8804)
the parched places
<02788>
in the wilderness
<04057>_,
[in] a salt
<04420>
land
<0776>
and not inhabited
<03427> (8799)_.
17:7
Blessed
<01288> (8803)
[is] the man
<01397>
that trusteth
<0982> (8799)
in the LORD
<03068>_,
and whose hope
<04009>
the LORD
<03068>
is.
17:8
For he shall be as a tree
<06086>
planted
<08362> (8803)
by the waters
<04325>_,
and [that] spreadeth out
<07971> (8762)
her roots
<08328>
by the river
<03105>_,
and shall not see
<07200> (8799)
when heat
<02527>
cometh
<0935> (8799)_,
but her leaf
<05929>
shall be green
<07488>_;
and shall not be careful
<01672> (8799)
in the year
<08141>
of drought
<01226>_,
neither shall cease
<04185> (8686)
from yielding
<06213> (8800)
fruit
<06529>_.
{drought: or, restraint}
17:9
The heart
<03820>
[is] deceitful
<06121>
above all [things], and desperately wicked
<0605> (8803)_:
who can know
<03045> (8799)
it?
17:10
I the LORD
<03068>
search
<02713> (8802)
the heart
<03820>_,
[I] try
<0974> (8802)
the reins
<03629>_,
even to give
<05414> (8800)
every man
<0376>
according to his ways
<01870>_,
[and] according to the fruit
<06529>
of his doings
<04611>_.
17:11
[As] the partridge
<07124>
sitteth
<01716> (8804)
[on eggs], and hatcheth
<03205> (8804)
[them] not; [so] he that getteth
<06213> (8802)
riches
<06239>_,
and not by right
<04941>_,
shall leave
<05800> (8799)
them in the midst
<02677>
of his days
<03117>_,
and at his end
<0319>
shall be a fool
<05036>_.
{sitteth...: or, gathereth young which she hath not brought forth}
17:12
A glorious
<03519>
high
<04791>
throne
<03678>
from the beginning
<07223>
[is] the place
<04725>
of our sanctuary
<04720>_.
17:13
O LORD
<03068>_,
the hope
<04723>
of Israel
<03478>_,
all that forsake
<05800> (8802)
thee shall be ashamed
<0954> (8799)_,
[and] they that depart
<03249>
from me
<05493> (8803)
shall be written
<03789> (8735)
in the earth
<0776>_,
because they have forsaken
<05800> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
the fountain
<04726>
of living
<02416>
waters
<04325>_.
17:14
Heal
<07495> (8798)
me, O LORD
<03068>_,
and I shall be healed
<07495> (8735)_;
save
<03467> (8685)
me, and I shall be saved
<03467> (8735)_:
for thou [art] my praise
<08416>_.
17:15
Behold, they say
<0559> (8802)
unto me, Where [is] the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_?
let it come
<0935> (8799)
now.
17:16
As for me, I have not hastened
<0213> (8804)
from [being] a pastor
<07462> (8802)
to follow
<0310>
thee: neither have I desired
<0183> (8694)
the woeful
<0605> (8803)
day
<03117>_;
thou knowest
<03045> (8804)_:
that which came out
<04161>
of my lips
<08193>
was [right] before
<05227>
thee
<06440>_.
{to...: Heb. after thee}
17:17
Be not a terror
<04288>
unto me: thou [art] my hope
<04268>
in the day
<03117>
of evil
<07451>_.
17:18
Let them be confounded
<0954> (8799)
that persecute
<07291> (8802)
me, but let not me be confounded
<0954> (8799)_:
let them be dismayed
<02865> (8735)_,
but let not me be dismayed
<02865> (8735)_:
bring
<0935> (8687)
upon them the day
<03117>
of evil
<07451>_,
and destroy
<07665> (8798)
them with double
<04932>
destruction
<07670>_.
{destroy...: Heb. break them with a double breach}
17:19
Thus said
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
unto me; Go
<01980> (8800)
and stand
<05975> (8804)
in the gate
<08179>
of the children
<01121>
of the people
<05971>_,
whereby the kings
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
come in
<0935> (8799)_,
and by the which they go out
<03318> (8799)_,
and in all the gates
<08179>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_;
17:20
And say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, Hear
<08085> (8798)
ye the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
ye kings
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and all Judah
<03063>_,
and all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
that enter in
<0935> (8802)
by these gates
<08179>_:
17:21
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Take heed
<08104> (8734)
to yourselves
<05315>_,
and bear
<05375> (8799)
no burden
<04853>
on the sabbath
<07676>
day
<03117>_,
nor bring
<0935> (8689)
[it] in by the gates
<08179>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_;
17:22
Neither carry forth
<03318> (8686)
a burden
<04853>
out of your houses
<01004>
on the sabbath
<07676>
day
<03117>_,
neither do
<06213> (8799)
ye any work
<04399>_,
but hallow
<06942> (8765)
ye the sabbath
<07676>
day
<03117>_,
as I commanded
<06680> (8765)
your fathers
<01>_.
17:23
But they obeyed
<08085> (8804)
not, neither inclined
<05186> (8689)
their ear
<0241>_,
but made their neck
<06203>
stiff
<07185> (8686)_,
that they might not hear
<08085> (8800)_,
nor receive
<03947> (8800)
instruction
<04148>_.
17:24
And it shall come to pass, if ye diligently
<08085> (8800)
hearken
<08085> (8799)
unto me, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
to bring
<0935> (8687)
in no burden
<04853>
through the gates
<08179>
of this city
<05892>
on the sabbath
<07676>
day
<03117>_,
but hallow
<06942> (8763)
the sabbath
<07676>
day
<03117>_,
to do
<06213> (8800)
no
<01115>
work
<04399>
therein;
17:25
Then shall there enter
<0935> (8804)
into the gates
<08179>
of this city
<05892>
kings
<04428>
and princes
<08269>
sitting
<03427> (8802)
upon the throne
<03678>
of David
<01732>_,
riding
<07392> (8802)
in chariots
<07393>
and on horses
<05483>_,
they, and their princes
<08269>_,
the men
<0376>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Jerusalem
<03389>_:
and this city
<05892>
shall remain
<03427> (8804)
for ever
<05769>_.
17:26
And they shall come
<0935> (8804)
from the cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and from the places about
<05439>
Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and from the land
<0776>
of Benjamin
<01144>_,
and from the plain
<08219>_,
and from the mountains
<02022>_,
and from the south
<05045>_,
bringing
<0935> (8688)
burnt offerings
<05930>_,
and sacrifices
<02077>_,
and meat offerings
<04503>_,
and incense
<03828>_,
and bringing
<0935> (8688)
sacrifices of praise
<08426>_,
unto the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
17:27
But if ye will not hearken
<08085> (8799)
unto me to hallow
<06942> (8763)
the sabbath
<07676>
day
<03117>_,
and not to bear
<05375> (8800)
a burden
<04853>_,
even entering in
<0935> (8800)
at the gates
<08179>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
on the sabbath
<07676>
day
<03117>_;
then will I kindle
<03341> (8689)
a fire
<0784>
in the gates
<08179>
thereof, and it shall devour
<0398> (8804)
the palaces
<0759>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and it shall not be quenched
<03518> (8799)_.
18:1
The word
<01697>
which came to Jeremiah
<03414>
from the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
18:2
Arise
<06965> (8798)_,
and go down
<03381> (8804)
to the potter's
<03335> (8802)
house
<01004>_,
and there I will cause thee to hear
<08085> (8686)
my words
<01697>_.
18:3
Then I went down
<03381> (8799)
to the potter's
<03335> (8802)
house
<01004>_,
and, behold
<02009>_,
he wrought
<06213> (8802)
a work
<04399>
on the wheels
<070>_.
{wheels: or, frames, or, seats}
18:4
And the vessel
<03627>
that he made
<06213> (8802)
of clay
<02563>
was marred
<07843> (8738)
in the hand
<03027>
of the potter
<03335> (8802)_:
so he made
<06213> (8799)
it again
<07725> (8804)
another
<0312>
vessel
<03627>_,
as seemed
<05869>
good
<03474> (8804)
to the potter
<03335> (8802)
to make
<06213> (8800)
[it]. {of clay...: or, was marred, as clay in the hand of the potter} {made it...: Heb. returned and made, etc}
18:5
Then the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came to me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
18:6
O house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
cannot
<03201> (8799)
I do
<06213> (8800)
with you as this potter
<03335> (8802)_?
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Behold, as the clay
<02563>
[is] in the potter's
<03335> (8802)
hand
<03027>_,
so [are] ye in mine hand
<03027>_,
O house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_.
18:7
[At what] instant
<07281>
I shall speak
<01696> (8762)
concerning a nation
<01471>_,
and concerning a kingdom
<04467>_,
to pluck up
<05428> (8800)_,
and to pull down
<05422> (8800)_,
and to destroy
<06> (8687)
[it];
18:8
If that nation
<01471>_,
against whom I have pronounced
<01696> (8765)_,
turn
<07725> (8804)
from their evil
<07451>_,
I will repent
<05162> (8738)
of the evil
<07451>
that I thought
<02803> (8804)
to do
<06213> (8800)
unto them.
18:9
And [at what] instant
<07281>
I shall speak
<01696> (8762)
concerning a nation
<01471>_,
and concerning a kingdom
<04467>_,
to build
<01129> (8800)
and to plant
<05193> (8800)
[it];
18:10
If it do
<06213> (8804)
evil
<07451>
in my sight
<05869>_,
that it obey
<08085> (8800)
not my voice
<06963>_,
then I will repent
<05162> (8738)
of the good
<02896>_,
wherewith I said
<0559> (8804)
I would benefit
<03190> (8687)
them.
18:11
Now therefore go to, speak
<0559> (8798)
to the men
<0376>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and to the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Behold, I frame
<03335> (8802)
evil
<07451>
against you, and devise
<02803> (8802)
a device
<04284>
against you: return
<07725> (8798)
ye now every one
<0376>
from his evil
<07451>
way
<01870>_,
and make your ways
<01870>
and your doings
<04611>
good
<03190> (8685)_.
18:12
And they said
<0559> (8804)_,
There is no hope
<02976> (8737)_:
but we will walk
<03212> (8799)
after
<0310>
our own devices
<04284>_,
and we will every one
<0376>
do
<06213> (8799)
the imagination
<08307>
of his evil
<07451>
heart
<03820>_.
18:13
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Ask
<07592> (8798)
ye now among the heathen
<01471>_,
who hath heard
<08085> (8804)
such things: the virgin
<01330>
of Israel
<03478>
hath done
<06213> (8804)
a very
<03966>
horrible thing
<08186>_.
18:14
Will [a man] leave
<05800> (8799)
the snow
<07950>
of Lebanon
<03844>
[which cometh] from the rock
<06697>
of the field
<07704>_?
[or] shall the cold
<07119>
flowing
<05140> (8802)
waters
<04325>
that come from another place
<02114> (8801)
be forsaken
<05428> (8735)_?
{the snow...: or, my fields for a rock, or for the snow of Lebanon? shall the running waters be forsaken for the strange cold waters?}
18:15
Because my people
<05971>
hath forgotten
<07911> (8804)
me, they have burned incense
<06999> (8762)
to vanity
<07723>_,
and they have caused them to stumble
<03782> (8686)
in their ways
<01870>
[from] the ancient
<05769>
paths
<07635> (8675) <07635>_,
to walk
<03212> (8800)
in paths
<05410>_,
[in] a way
<01870>
not cast up
<05549> (8803)_;
18:16
To make
<07760> (8800)
their land
<0776>
desolate
<08047>_,
[and] a perpetual
<05769>
hissing
<08292> (8675) <08292>_;
every one that passeth
<05674> (8802)
thereby shall be astonished
<08074> (8799)_,
and wag
<05110> (8686)
his head
<07218>_.
18:17
I will scatter
<06327> (8686)
them as with an east
<06921>
wind
<07307>
before
<06440>
the enemy
<0341> (8802)_;
I will shew
<07200> (8799)
them the back
<06203>_,
and not the face
<06440>_,
in the day
<03117>
of their calamity
<0343>_.
18:18
Then said
<0559> (8799)
they, Come
<03212> (8798)_,
and let us devise
<02803> (8799)
devices
<04284>
against Jeremiah
<03414>_;
for the law
<08451>
shall not perish
<06> (8799)
from the priest
<03548>_,
nor counsel
<06098>
from the wise
<02450>_,
nor the word
<01697>
from the prophet
<05030>_.
Come
<03212> (8798)_,
and let us smite
<05221> (8686)
him with the tongue
<03956>_,
and let us not give heed
<07181> (8686)
to any of his words
<01697>_.
{with...: or, for the tongue}
18:19
Give heed
<07181> (8685)
to me, O LORD
<03068>_,
and hearken
<08085> (8798)
to the voice
<06963>
of them that contend
<03401>
with me.
18:20
Shall evil
<07451>
be recompensed
<07999> (8792)
for good
<02896>_?
for they have digged
<03738> (8804)
a pit
<07745>
for my soul
<05315>_.
Remember
<02142> (8798)
that I stood
<05975> (8800)
before
<06440>
thee to speak
<01696> (8763)
good
<02896>
for them, [and] to turn away
<07725> (8687)
thy wrath
<02534>
from them.
18:21
Therefore deliver up
<05414> (8798)
their children
<01121>
to the famine
<07458>_,
and pour out
<05064> (8685)
their [blood] by the force
<03027>
of the sword
<02719>_;
and let their wives
<0802>
be bereaved
<07909>
of their children, and [be] widows
<0490>_;
and let their men
<0582>
be put
<02026> (8803)
to death
<04194>_;
[let] their young men
<0970>
[be] slain
<05221> (8716)
by the sword
<02719>
in battle
<04421>_.
{pour...: Heb. pour them out}
18:22
Let a cry
<02201>
be heard
<08085> (8735)
from their houses
<01004>_,
when thou shalt bring
<0935> (8686)
a troop
<01416>
suddenly
<06597>
upon them: for they have digged
<03738> (8804)
a pit
<07745> (8675) <07882>
to take
<03920> (8800)
me, and hid
<02934> (8804)
snares
<06341>
for my feet
<07272>_.
18:23
Yet, LORD
<03068>_,
thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
all their counsel
<06098>
against me to slay
<04194>
[me]: forgive
<03722> (8762)
not their iniquity
<05771>_,
neither blot out
<04229> (8686)
their sin
<02403>
from thy sight
<06440>_,
but let them be overthrown
<03782> (8716)
before
<06440>
thee; deal
<06213> (8798)
[thus] with them in the time
<06256>
of thine anger
<0639>_.
{to slay...: Heb. for death}
19:1
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Go
<01980> (8800)
and get
<07069> (8804)
a potter's
<03335> (8802)
earthen
<02789>
bottle
<01228>_,
and [take] of the ancients
<02205>
of the people
<05971>_,
and of the ancients
<02205>
of the priests
<03548>_;
19:2
And go forth
<03318> (8804)
unto the valley
<01516>
of the son
<01121>
of Hinnom
<02011>_,
which [is] by the entry
<06607>
of the east
<02777>
gate
<08179>_,
and proclaim
<07121> (8804)
there the words
<01697>
that I shall tell
<01696> (8762)
thee, {the east...: Heb. the sun gate}
19:3
And say
<0559> (8804)_,
Hear
<08085> (8798)
ye the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
O kings
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Jerusalem
<03389>_;
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)
evil
<07451>
upon this place
<04725>_,
the which whosoever heareth
<08085> (8802)_,
his ears
<0241>
shall tingle
<06750> (8799)_.
19:4
Because they have forsaken
<05800> (8804)
me, and have estranged
<05234> (8762)
this place
<04725>_,
and have burned incense
<06999> (8762)
in it unto other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_,
whom neither they nor their fathers
<01>
have known
<03045> (8804)_,
nor the kings
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and have filled
<04390> (8804)
this place
<04725>
with the blood
<01818>
of innocents
<05355>_;
19:5
They have built
<01129> (8804)
also the high places
<01116>
of Baal
<01168>_,
to burn
<08313> (8800)
their sons
<01121>
with fire
<0784>
[for] burnt offerings
<05930>
unto Baal
<01168>_,
which I commanded
<06680> (8765)
not, nor spake
<01696> (8765)
[it], neither came
<05927> (8804)
[it] into my mind
<03820>_:
19:6
Therefore, behold, the days
<03117>
come
<0935> (8802)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that this place
<04725>
shall no more be called
<07121> (8735)
Tophet
<08612>_,
nor The valley
<01516>
of the son
<01121>
of Hinnom
<02011>_,
but The valley
<01516>
of slaughter
<02028>_.
19:7
And I will make void
<01238> (8804)
the counsel
<06098>
of Judah
<03063>
and Jerusalem
<03389>
in this place
<04725>_;
and I will cause them to fall
<05307> (8689)
by the sword
<02719>
before
<06440>
their enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
and by the hands
<03027>
of them that seek
<01245> (8764)
their lives
<05315>_:
and their carcases
<05038>
will I give
<05414> (8804)
to be meat
<03978>
for the fowls
<05775>
of the heaven
<08064>_,
and for the beasts
<0929>
of the earth
<0776>_.
19:8
And I will make
<07760> (8804)
this city
<05892>
desolate
<08047>_,
and an hissing
<08322>_;
every one that passeth
<05674> (8802)
thereby shall be astonished
<08074> (8799)
and hiss
<08319> (8799)
because of all the plagues
<04347>
thereof.
19:9
And I will cause them to eat
<0398> (8689)
the flesh
<01320>
of their sons
<01121>
and the flesh
<01320>
of their daughters
<01323>_,
and they shall eat
<0398> (8799)
every one
<0376>
the flesh
<01320>
of his friend
<07453>
in the siege
<04692>
and straitness
<04689>_,
wherewith their enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
and they that seek
<01245> (8764)
their lives
<05315>_,
shall straiten
<06693> (8686)
them.
19:10
Then shalt thou break
<07665> (8804)
the bottle
<01228>
in the sight
<05869>
of the men
<0582>
that go
<01980> (8802)
with thee,
19:11
And shalt say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_;
Even so
<03602>
will I break
<07665> (8799)
this people
<05971>
and this city
<05892>_,
as [one] breaketh
<07665> (8799)
a potter's
<03335> (8802)
vessel
<03627>_,
that cannot
<03201> (8799)
be made whole again
<07495> (8736)_:
and they shall bury
<06912> (8799)
[them] in Tophet
<08612>_,
till [there be] no place
<04725>
to bury
<06912> (8800)_.
{be made...: Heb. be healed}
19:12
Thus will I do
<06213> (8799)
unto this place
<04725>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
and to the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
thereof, and [even] make
<05414> (8800)
this city
<05892>
as Tophet
<08612>_:
19:13
And the houses
<01004>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and the houses
<01004>
of the kings
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
shall be defiled
<02931>
as the place
<04725>
of Tophet
<08612>_,
because of all the houses
<01004>
upon whose roofs
<01406>
they have burned incense
<06999> (8765)
unto all the host
<06635>
of heaven
<08064>_,
and have poured out
<05258> (8687)
drink offerings
<05262>
unto other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_.
19:14
Then came
<0935> (8799)
Jeremiah
<03414>
from Tophet
<08612>_,
whither the LORD
<03068>
had sent
<07971> (8804)
him to prophesy
<05012> (8736)_;
and he stood
<05975> (8799)
in the court
<02691>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
house
<01004>_;
and said
<0559> (8799)
to all the people
<05971>_,
19:15
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)
upon this city
<05892>
and upon all her towns
<05892>
all the evil
<07451>
that I have pronounced
<01696> (8765)
against it, because they have hardened
<07185> (8689)
their necks
<06203>_,
that they might not hear
<08085> (8800)
my words
<01697>_.
20:1
Now Pashur
<06583>
the son
<01121>
of Immer
<0564>
the priest
<03548>_,
who [was] also chief
<06496>
governor
<05057>
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
heard
<08085> (8799)
that Jeremiah
<03414>
prophesied
<05012> (8738)
these things
<01697>_.
20:2
Then Pashur
<06583>
smote
<05221> (8686)
Jeremiah
<03414>
the prophet
<05030>_,
and put
<05414> (8799)
him in the stocks
<04115>
that [were] in the high
<05945>
gate
<08179>
of Benjamin
<01144>_,
which [was] by the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
20:3
And it came to pass on the morrow
<04283>_,
that Pashur
<06583>
brought forth
<03318> (8686)
Jeremiah
<03414>
out of the stocks
<04115>_.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
Jeremiah
<03414>
unto him, The LORD
<03068>
hath not called
<07121> (8804)
thy name
<08034>
Pashur
<06583>_,
but Magormissabib
<04036>_.
{Magormissabib: that is, Fear round about}
20:4
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Behold, I will make
<05414> (8802)
thee a terror
<04032>
to thyself, and to all thy friends
<0157> (8802)_:
and they shall fall
<05307> (8804)
by the sword
<02719>
of their enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
and thine eyes
<05869>
shall behold
<07200> (8802)
[it]: and I will give
<05414> (8799)
all Judah
<03063>
into the hand
<03027>
of the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and he shall carry them captive
<01540> (8689)
into Babylon
<0894>_,
and shall slay
<05221> (8689)
them with the sword
<02719>_.
20:5
Moreover I will deliver
<05414> (8804)
all the strength
<02633>
of this city
<05892>_,
and all the labours
<03018>
thereof, and all the precious things
<03366>
thereof, and all the treasures
<0214>
of the kings
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
will I give
<05414> (8799)
into the hand
<03027>
of their enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
which shall spoil
<0962> (8804)
them, and take
<03947> (8804)
them, and carry
<0935> (8689)
them to Babylon
<0894>_.
20:6
And thou, Pashur
<06583>_,
and all that dwell
<03427> (8802)
in thine house
<01004>
shall go
<03212> (8799)
into captivity
<07628>_:
and thou shalt come
<0935> (8799)
to Babylon
<0894>_,
and there thou shalt die
<04191> (8799)_,
and shalt be buried
<06912> (8735)
there, thou, and all thy friends
<0157> (8802)_,
to whom thou hast prophesied
<05012> (8738)
lies
<08267>_.
20:7
O LORD
<03068>_,
thou hast deceived
<06601> (8765)
me, and I was deceived
<06601> (8735)_:
thou art stronger
<02388> (8804)
than I, and hast prevailed
<03201> (8799)_:
I am in derision
<07814>
daily
<03117>_,
every one mocketh
<03932> (8802)
me. {was deceived: or, was enticed}
20:8
For since
<01767>
I spake
<01696> (8762)_,
I cried out
<02199> (8799)_,
I cried
<07121> (8799)
violence
<02555>
and spoil
<07701>_;
because the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
was made a reproach
<02781>
unto me, and a derision
<07047>_,
daily
<03117>_.
20:9
Then I said
<0559> (8804)_,
I will not make mention
<02142> (8799)
of him, nor speak
<01696> (8762)
any more in his name
<08034>_.
But [his word] was in mine heart
<03820>
as a burning
<01197> (8802)
fire
<0784>
shut up
<06113> (8803)
in my bones
<06106>_,
and I was weary
<03811> (8738)
with forbearing
<03557> (8771)_,
and I could
<03201> (8799)
not [stay].
20:10
For I heard
<08085> (8804)
the defaming
<01681>
of many
<07227>_,
fear
<04032>
on every side
<05439>_.
Report
<05046> (8685)_,
[say they], and we will report
<05046> (8686)
it. All my familiars
<0582> <07965>
watched
<08104> (8802)
for my halting
<06763> (8676) <06761>_,
[saying], Peradventure he will be enticed
<06601> (8792)_,
and we shall prevail
<03201> (8799)
against him, and we shall take
<03947> (8799)
our revenge
<05360>
on him. {All...: Heb. Every man of my peace}
20:11
But the LORD
<03068>
[is] with me as a mighty
<01368>
terrible one
<06184>_:
therefore my persecutors
<07291> (8802)
shall stumble
<03782> (8735)_,
and they shall not prevail
<03201> (8799)_:
they shall be greatly
<03966>
ashamed
<0954> (8804)_;
for they shall not prosper
<07919> (8689)_:
[their] everlasting
<05769>
confusion
<03639>
shall never be forgotten
<07911> (8735)_.
20:12
But, O LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
that triest
<0974> (8802)
the righteous
<06662>_,
[and] seest
<07200> (8802)
the reins
<03629>
and the heart
<03820>_,
let me see
<07200> (8799)
thy vengeance
<05360>
on them: for unto thee have I opened
<01540> (8765)
my cause
<07379>_.
20:13
Sing
<07891> (8798)
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
praise
<01984> (8761)
ye the LORD
<03068>_:
for he hath delivered
<05337> (8689)
the soul
<05315>
of the poor
<034>
from the hand
<03027>
of evildoers
<07489> (8688)_.
20:14
Cursed
<0779> (8803)
[be] the day
<03117>
wherein I was born
<03205> (8795)_:
let not the day
<03117>
wherein my mother
<0517>
bare
<03205> (8804)
me be blessed
<01288> (8803)_.
20:15
Cursed
<0779> (8803)
[be] the man
<0376>
who brought tidings
<01319> (8765)
to my father
<01>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
A man
<02145>
child
<01121>
is born
<03205> (8795)
unto thee; making him very
<08055> (8763)
glad
<08055> (8765)_.
20:16
And let that man
<0376>
be as the cities
<05892>
which the LORD
<03068>
overthrew
<02015> (8804)_,
and repented
<05162> (8738)
not: and let him hear
<08085> (8804)
the cry
<02201>
in the morning
<01242>_,
and the shouting
<08643>
at noontide
<06256> <06672>_;
20:17
Because he slew
<04191> (8790)
me not from the womb
<07358>_;
or that my mother
<0517>
might have been my grave
<06913>_,
and her womb
<07358>
[to be] always
<05769>
great
<02030>
[with me].
20:18
Wherefore came I forth
<03318> (8804)
out of the womb
<07358>
to see
<07200> (8800)
labour
<05999>
and sorrow
<03015>_,
that my days
<03117>
should be consumed
<03615> (8799)
with shame
<01322>_?
21:1
The word
<01697>
which came unto Jeremiah
<03414>
from the LORD
<03068>_,
when king
<04428>
Zedekiah
<06667>
sent
<07971> (8800)
unto him Pashur
<06583>
the son
<01121>
of Melchiah
<04441>_,
and Zephaniah
<06846>
the son
<01121>
of Maaseiah
<04641>
the priest
<03548>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
21:2
Enquire
<01875> (8798)_,
I pray thee, of the LORD
<03068>
for us
<01157>_;
for Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>
maketh war
<03898> (8737)
against us; if so be that the LORD
<03068>
will deal
<06213> (8799)
with us according to all his wondrous works
<06381> (8737)_,
that he may go up
<05927> (8799)
from us.
21:3
Then said
<0559> (8799)
Jeremiah
<03414>
unto them, Thus shall ye say
<0559> (8799)
to Zedekiah
<06667>_:
21:4
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Behold, I will turn back
<05437> (8688)
the weapons
<03627>
of war
<04421>
that [are] in your hands
<03027>_,
wherewith ye fight
<03898> (8737)
against the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and [against] the Chaldeans
<03778>_,
which besiege
<06696> (8802)
you without
<02351>
the walls
<02346>_,
and I will assemble
<0622> (8804)
them into the midst
<08432>
of this city
<05892>_.
21:5
And I myself will fight
<03898> (8738)
against you with an outstretched
<05186> (8803)
hand
<03027>
and with a strong
<02389>
arm
<02220>_,
even in anger
<0639>_,
and in fury
<02534>_,
and in great
<01419>
wrath
<07110>_.
21:6
And I will smite
<05221> (8689)
the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of this city
<05892>_,
both man
<0120>
and beast
<0929>_:
they shall die
<04191> (8799)
of a great
<01419>
pestilence
<01698>_.
21:7
And afterward
<0310>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
I will deliver
<05414> (8799)
Zedekiah
<06667>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and his servants
<05650>_,
and the people
<05971>_,
and such as are left
<07604> (8737)
in this city
<05892>
from the pestilence
<01698>_,
from the sword
<02719>_,
and from the famine
<07458>_,
into the hand
<03027>
of Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and into the hand
<03027>
of their enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
and into the hand
<03027>
of those that seek
<01245> (8764)
their life
<05315>_:
and he shall smite
<05221> (8689)
them with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_;
he shall not spare
<02347> (8799)
them, neither have pity
<02550> (8799)_,
nor have mercy
<07355> (8762)_.
21:8
And unto this people
<05971>
thou shalt say
<0559> (8799)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Behold, I set
<05414> (8802)
before
<06440>
you the way
<01870>
of life
<02416>_,
and the way
<01870>
of death
<04194>_.
21:9
He that abideth
<03427> (8802)
in this city
<05892>
shall die
<04191> (8799)
by the sword
<02719>_,
and by the famine
<07458>_,
and by the pestilence
<01698>_:
but he that goeth out
<03318> (8802)_,
and falleth
<05307> (8804)
to the Chaldeans
<03778>
that besiege
<06696> (8802)
you, he shall live
<02421> (8804) (8675) <02421> (8799)_,
and his life
<05315>
shall be unto him for a prey
<07998>_.
21:10
For I have set
<07760> (8804)
my face
<06440>
against this city
<05892>
for evil
<07451>_,
and not for good
<02896>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_:
it shall be given
<05414> (8735)
into the hand
<03027>
of the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and he shall burn
<08313> (8804)
it with fire
<0784>_.
21:11
And touching the house
<01004>
of the king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
[say], Hear
<08085> (8798)
ye the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
21:12
O house
<01004>
of David
<01732>_,
thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Execute
<01777> (8798)
judgment
<04941>
in the morning
<01242>_,
and deliver
<05337> (8685)
[him that is] spoiled
<01497> (8803)
out of the hand
<03027>
of the oppressor
<06231> (8802)_,
lest my fury
<02534>
go out
<03318> (8799)
like fire
<0784>_,
and burn
<01197> (8804)
that none can quench
<03518> (8764)
[it], because
<06440>
of the evil
<07455>
of your doings
<04611>_.
{Execute: Heb. Judge}
21:13
Behold, I [am] against thee, O inhabitant
<03427> (8802)
of the valley
<06010>_,
[and] rock
<06697>
of the plain
<04334>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
which say
<0559> (8802)_,
Who shall come down
<05181> (8799)
against us? or who shall enter
<0935> (8799)
into our habitations
<04585>_?
{inhabitant: Heb. inhabitress}
21:14
But I will punish
<06485> (8804)
you according to the fruit
<06529>
of your doings
<04611>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_:
and I will kindle
<03341> (8689)
a fire
<0784>
in the forest
<03293>
thereof, and it shall devour
<0398> (8804)
all things round about
<05439>
it. {punish: Heb. visit upon}
22:1
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Go down
<03381> (8798)
to the house
<01004>
of the king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and speak
<01696> (8765)
there this word
<01697>_,
22:2
And say
<0559> (8804)_,
Hear
<08085> (8798)
the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
O king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
that sittest
<03427> (8802)
upon the throne
<03678>
of David
<01732>_,
thou, and thy servants
<05650>_,
and thy people
<05971>
that enter
<0935> (8802)
in by these gates
<08179>_:
22:3
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Execute
<06213> (8798)
ye judgment
<04941>
and righteousness
<06666>_,
and deliver
<05337> (8685)
the spoiled
<01497> (8803)
out of the hand
<03027>
of the oppressor
<06216>_:
and do no wrong
<03238> (8686)_,
do no violence
<02554> (8799)
to the stranger
<01616>_,
the fatherless
<03490>_,
nor the widow
<0490>_,
neither shed
<08210> (8799)
innocent
<05355>
blood
<01818>
in this place
<04725>_.
22:4
For if ye do
<06213> (8799)
this thing
<01697>
indeed
<06213> (8800)_,
then shall there enter in
<0935> (8804)
by the gates
<08179>
of this house
<01004>
kings
<04428>
sitting
<03427> (8802)
upon the throne
<03678>
of David
<01732>_,
riding
<07392> (8802)
in chariots
<07393>
and on horses
<05483>_,
he, and his servants
<05650>_,
and his people
<05971>_.
{upon...: Heb. for David upon his throne}
22:5
But if ye will not hear
<08085> (8799)
these words
<01697>_,
I swear
<07650> (8738)
by myself, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that this house
<01004>
shall become a desolation
<02723>_.
22:6
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
unto the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>
of Judah
<03063>_;
Thou [art] Gilead
<01568>
unto me, [and] the head
<07218>
of Lebanon
<03844>_:
[yet] surely I will make
<07896> (8799)
thee a wilderness
<04057>_,
[and] cities
<05892>
[which] are not inhabited
<03427> (8738) (8675) <03427> (8737)_.
22:7
And I will prepare
<06942> (8765)
destroyers
<07843> (8688)
against thee, every one
<0376>
with his weapons
<03627>_:
and they shall cut down
<03772> (8804)
thy choice
<04005>
cedars
<0730>_,
and cast
<05307> (8689)
[them] into the fire
<0784>_.
22:8
And many
<07227>
nations
<01471>
shall pass
<05674> (8804)
by this city
<05892>_,
and they shall say
<0559> (8804)
every man
<0376>
to his neighbour
<07453>_,
Wherefore hath the LORD
<03068>
done
<06213> (8804)
thus unto this great
<01419>
city
<05892>_?
22:9
Then they shall answer
<0559> (8804)_,
Because they have forsaken
<05800> (8804)
the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>
their God
<0430>_,
and worshipped
<07812> (8691)
other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_,
and served
<05647> (8799)
them.
22:10
Weep
<01058> (8799)
ye not for the dead
<04191> (8801)_,
neither bemoan
<05110> (8799)
him: [but] weep
<01058> (8798)
sore
<01058> (8800)
for him that goeth away
<01980> (8802)_:
for he shall return
<07725> (8799)
no more, nor see
<07200> (8804)
his native
<04138>
country
<0776>_.
22:11
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
touching
<0413>
Shallum
<07967>
the son
<01121>
of Josiah
<02977>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
which reigned
<04427> (8802)
instead of Josiah
<02977>
his father
<01>_,
which went forth
<03318> (8804)
out of this place
<04725>_;
He shall not return
<07725> (8799)
thither any more:
22:12
But he shall die
<04191> (8799)
in the place
<04725>
whither they have led him captive
<01540> (8689)_,
and shall see
<07200> (8799)
this land
<0776>
no more.
22:13
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>_;
22:14
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}
22:15
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?
22:16
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>_.
22:17
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}
22:18
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
concerning Jehoiakim
<03079>
the son
<01121>
of Josiah
<02977>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_;
They shall not lament
<05594> (8799)
for him, [saying], Ah
<01945>
my brother
<0251>_!
or, Ah
<01945>
sister
<0269>_!
they shall not lament
<05594> (8799)
for him, [saying], Ah
<01945>
lord
<0113>_!
or, Ah
<01945>
his glory
<01935>_!
22:19
He shall be buried
<06912> (8735)
with the burial
<06900>
of an ass
<02543>_,
drawn
<05498> (8800)
and cast forth
<07993> (8687)
beyond
<01973>
the gates
<08179>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_.
22:20
Go up
<05927> (8798)
to Lebanon
<03844>_,
and cry
<06817> (8798)_;
and lift up
<05414> (8798)
thy voice
<06963>
in Bashan
<01316>_,
and cry
<06817> (8798)
from the passages
<05676>_:
for all thy lovers
<0157> (8764)
are destroyed
<07665> (8738)_.
22:21
I spake
<01696> (8765)
unto thee in thy prosperity
<07962>_;
[but] thou saidst
<0559> (8804)_,
I will not hear
<08085> (8799)_.
This [hath been] thy manner
<01870>
from thy youth
<05271>_,
that thou obeyedst
<08085> (8804)
not my voice
<06963>_.
{prosperity: Heb. prosperities}
22:22
The wind
<07307>
shall eat up
<07462> (8799)
all thy pastors
<07462> (8802)_,
and thy lovers
<0157> (8764)
shall go
<03212> (8799)
into captivity
<07628>_:
surely then shalt thou be ashamed
<0954> (8799)
and confounded
<03637> (8738)
for all thy wickedness
<07451>_.
22:23
O inhabitant
<03427> (8802)
of Lebanon
<03844>_,
that makest thy nest
<07077> (8794)
in the cedars
<0730>_,
how gracious
<02603> (8738)
shalt thou be when pangs
<02256>
come
<0935> (8800)
upon thee, the pain
<02427>
as of a woman in travail
<03205> (8802)_!
{inhabitant: Heb. inhabitress}
22:24
[As] I live
<02416>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
though Coniah
<03659>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiakim
<03079>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
were the signet
<02368>
upon my right
<03225>
hand
<03027>_,
yet would I pluck
<05423> (8799)
thee thence;
22:25
And I will give
<05414> (8804)
thee into the hand
<03027>
of them that seek
<01245> (8764)
thy life
<05315>_,
and into the hand
<03027>
[of them] whose face
<06440>
thou fearest
<03016> (8801)_,
even into the hand
<03027>
of Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and into the hand
<03027>
of the Chaldeans
<03778>_.
22:26
And I will cast thee out
<02904> (8689)_,
and thy mother
<0517>
that bare
<03205> (8804)
thee, into another
<0312>
country
<0776>_,
where ye were not born
<03205> (8795)_;
and there shall ye die
<04191> (8799)_.
22:27
But to the land
<0776>
whereunto they desire
<05375> (8764) (8676) <05315>
to return
<07725> (8800)_,
thither shall they not return
<07725> (8799)_.
{desire: Heb. lift up their mind}
22:28
[Is] this man
<0376>
Coniah
<03659>
a despised
<0959> (8737)
broken
<05310> (8803)
idol
<06089>_?
[is he] a vessel
<03627>
wherein [is] no pleasure
<02656>_?
wherefore are they cast out
<07993> (8717)_,
he and his seed
<02233>_,
and are cast
<02904> (8717)
into a land
<0776>
which they know
<03045> (8804)
not?
22:29
O earth
<0776>_,
earth
<0776>_,
earth
<0776>_,
hear
<08085> (8798)
the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
22:30
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Write
<03789> (8798)
ye this man
<0376>
childless
<06185>_,
a man
<01397>
[that] shall not prosper
<06743> (8799)
in his days
<03117>_:
for no man
<0376>
of his seed
<02233>
shall prosper
<06743> (8799)_,
sitting
<03427> (8802)
upon the throne
<03678>
of David
<01732>_,
and ruling
<04910> (8802)
any more in Judah
<03063>_.
23:1
Woe
<01945>
be unto the pastors
<07462> (8802)
that destroy
<06> (8764)
and scatter
<06327> (8688)
the sheep
<06629>
of my pasture
<04830>_!
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
23:2
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>
against the pastors
<07462> (8802)
that feed
<07462> (8802)
my people
<05971>_;
Ye have scattered
<06327> (8689)
my flock
<06629>_,
and driven them away
<05080> (8686)_,
and have not visited
<06485> (8804)
them: behold, I will visit
<06485> (8802)
upon you the evil
<07455>
of your doings
<04611>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
23:3
And I will gather
<06908> (8762)
the remnant
<07611>
of my flock
<06629>
out of all countries
<0776>
whither I have driven
<05080> (8689)
them, and will bring them again
<07725> (8689)
to their folds
<05116>_;
and they shall be fruitful
<06509> (8804)
and increase
<07235> (8804)_.
23:4
And I will set up
<06965> (8689)
shepherds
<07462> (8802)
over them which shall feed
<07462> (8804)
them: and they shall fear
<03372> (8799)
no more, nor be dismayed
<02865> (8735)_,
neither shall they be lacking
<06485> (8735)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
23:5
Behold, the days
<03117>
come
<0935> (8802)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that I will raise
<06965> (8689)
unto David
<01732>
a righteous
<06662>
Branch
<06780>_,
and a King
<04428>
shall reign
<04427> (8804)
and prosper
<07919> (8689)_,
and shall execute
<06213> (8804)
judgment
<04941>
and justice
<06666>
in the earth
<0776>_.
23:6
In his days
<03117>
Judah
<03063>
shall be saved
<03467> (8735)_,
and Israel
<03478>
shall dwell
<07931> (8799)
safely
<0983>_:
and this [is] his name
<08034>
whereby he shall be called
<07121> (8799)_,
THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS
<03072>_.
{THE LORD...: Heb. Jehovahtsidkenu}
23:7
Therefore, behold, the days
<03117>
come
<0935> (8802)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that they shall no more say
<0559> (8799)_,
The LORD
<03068>
liveth
<02416>_,
which brought up
<05927> (8689)
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
out of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_;
23:8
But, The LORD
<03068>
liveth
<02416>_,
which brought up
<05927> (8689)
and which led
<0935> (8689)
the seed
<02233>
of the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>
out of the north
<06828>
country
<0776>_,
and from all countries
<0776>
whither I had driven
<05080> (8689)
them; and they shall dwell
<03427> (8804)
in their own land
<0127>_.
23:9
Mine heart
<03820>
within
<07130>
me is broken
<07665> (8738)
because of the prophets
<05030>_;
all my bones
<06106>
shake
<07363> (8804)_;
I am like a drunken
<07910>
man
<0376>_,
and like a man
<01397>
whom wine
<03196>
hath overcome
<05674> (8804)_,
because
<06440>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and because of the words
<01697>
of his holiness
<06944>_.
23:10
For the land
<0776>
is full
<04390> (8804)
of adulterers
<05003> (8764)_;
for because
<06440>
of swearing
<0423>
the land
<0776>
mourneth
<056> (8804)_;
the pleasant places
<04999>
of the wilderness
<04057>
are dried up
<03001> (8804)_,
and their course
<04794>
is evil
<07451>_,
and their force
<01369>
[is] not right. {swearing: or, cursing} {course: or, violence}
23:11
For both prophet
<05030>
and priest
<03548>
are profane
<02610> (8804)_;
yea, in my house
<01004>
have I found
<04672> (8804)
their wickedness
<07451>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
23:12
Wherefore their way
<01870>
shall be unto them as slippery
<02519>
[ways] in the darkness
<0653>_:
they shall be driven on
<01760> (8735)_,
and fall
<05307> (8804)
therein: for I will bring
<0935> (8686)
evil
<07451>
upon them, [even] the year
<08141>
of their visitation
<06486>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
23:13
And I have seen
<07200> (8804)
folly
<08604>
in the prophets
<05030>
of Samaria
<08111>_;
they prophesied
<05012> (8694)
in Baal
<01168>_,
and caused my people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>
to err
<08582> (8686)_.
{folly: or, an absurd thing: Heb. unsavoury}
23:14
I have seen
<07200> (8804)
also in the prophets
<05030>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
an horrible thing
<08186>_:
they commit adultery
<05003> (8800)_,
and walk
<01980> (8800)
in lies
<08267>_:
they strengthen
<02388> (8765)
also the hands
<03027>
of evildoers
<07489> (8688)_,
that none
<0376>
doth return
<07725> (8804)
from his wickedness
<07451>_:
they are all of them unto me as Sodom
<05467>_,
and the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
thereof as Gomorrah
<06017>_.
{an...: or, filthiness}
23:15
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
concerning the prophets
<05030>_;
Behold, I will feed
<0398> (8688)
them with wormwood
<03939>_,
and make them drink
<08248> (8689)
the water
<04325>
of gall
<07219>_:
for from the prophets
<05030>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
is profaneness
<02613>
gone forth
<03318> (8804)
into all the land
<0776>_.
{profaneness: or, hypocrisy}
23:16
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
Hearken
<08085> (8799)
not unto the words
<01697>
of the prophets
<05030>
that prophesy
<05012> (8737)
unto you: they make you vain
<01891> (8688)_:
they speak
<01696> (8762)
a vision
<02377>
of their own heart
<03820>_,
[and] not out of the mouth
<06310>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
23:17
They say
<0559> (8802)
still
<0559> (8800)
unto them that despise
<05006> (8764)
me, The LORD
<03068>
hath said
<01696> (8765)_,
Ye shall have peace
<07965>_;
and they say
<0559> (8804)
unto every one that walketh
<01980> (8802)
after the imagination
<08307>
of his own heart
<03820>_,
No evil
<07451>
shall come
<0935> (8799)
upon you. {imagination: or, stubbornness}
23:18
For who hath stood
<05975> (8804)
in the counsel
<05475>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and hath perceived
<07200> (8799)
and heard
<08085> (8799)
his word
<01697>_?
who hath marked
<07181> (8689)
his word
<01697>_,
and heard
<08085> (8799)
[it]? {counsel: or, secret}
23:19
Behold, a whirlwind
<05591>
of the LORD
<03068>
is gone forth
<03318> (8804)
in fury
<02534>_,
even a grievous
<02342> (8711)
whirlwind
<05591>_:
it shall fall grievously
<02342> (8799)
upon the head
<07218>
of the wicked
<07563>_.
23:20
The anger
<0639>
of the LORD
<03068>
shall not return
<07725> (8799)_,
until he have executed
<06213> (8800)_,
and till he have performed
<06965> (8687)
the thoughts
<04209>
of his heart
<03820>_:
in the latter
<0319>
days
<03117>
ye shall consider
<0995> (8709)
it perfectly
<0998>_.
23:21
I have not sent
<07971> (8804)
these prophets
<05030>_,
yet they ran
<07323> (8804)_:
I have not spoken
<01696> (8765)
to them, yet they prophesied
<05012> (8738)_.
23:22
But if they had stood
<05975> (8804)
in my counsel
<05475>_,
and had caused my people
<05971>
to hear
<08085> (8686)
my words
<01697>_,
then they should have turned
<07725> (8686)
them from their evil
<07451>
way
<01870>_,
and from the evil
<07455>
of their doings
<04611>_.
23:23
[Am] I a God
<0430>
at hand
<07138>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
and not a God
<0430>
afar off
<07350>_?
23:24
Can any
<0376>
hide
<05641> (8735)
himself in secret places
<04565>
that I shall not see
<07200> (8799)
him? saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Do not I fill
<04392>
heaven
<08064>
and earth
<0776>_?
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
23:25
I have heard
<08085> (8804)
what the prophets
<05030>
said
<0559> (8804)_,
that prophesy
<05012> (8737)
lies
<08267>
in my name
<08034>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
I have dreamed
<02492> (8804)_,
I have dreamed
<02492> (8804)_.
23:26
How long shall [this] be
<03426>
in the heart
<03820>
of the prophets
<05030>
that prophesy
<05012> (8737)
lies
<08267>_?
yea, [they are] prophets
<05030>
of the deceit
<08649>
of their own heart
<03820>_;
23:27
Which think
<02803> (8802)
to cause my people
<05971>
to forget
<07911> (8687)
my name
<08034>
by their dreams
<02472>
which they tell
<05608> (8762)
every man
<0376>
to his neighbour
<07453>_,
as their fathers
<01>
have forgotten
<07911> (8804)
my name
<08034>
for Baal
<01168>_.
23:28
The prophet
<05030>
that hath a dream
<02472>_,
let him tell
<05608> (8762)
a dream
<02472>_;
and he that hath my word
<01697>_,
let him speak
<01696> (8762)
my word
<01697>
faithfully
<0571>_.
What [is] the chaff
<08401>
to the wheat
<01250>_?
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
{that hath a dream: Heb. with whom is, etc}
23:29
[Is] not my word
<01697>
like
<03541>
as a fire
<0784>_?
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
and like a hammer
<06360>
[that] breaketh
<06327> (0)
the rock
<05553>
in pieces
<06327> (8787)_?
23:30
Therefore, behold, I [am] against the prophets
<05030>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that steal
<01589> (8764)
my words
<01697>
every one
<0376>
from his neighbour
<07453>_.
23:31
Behold, I [am] against the prophets
<05030>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that use
<03947> (8802)
their tongues
<03956>_,
and say
<05001> (8799)_,
He saith
<05002> (8803)_.
{that...: or, that smooth their tongues}
23:32
Behold, I [am] against them that prophesy
<05012> (8737)
false
<08267>
dreams
<02472>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
and do tell
<05608> (8762)
them, and cause my people
<05971>
to err
<08582> (8686)
by their lies
<08267>_,
and by their lightness
<06350>_;
yet I sent
<07971> (8804)
them not, nor commanded
<06680> (8765)
them: therefore they shall not profit
<03276> (8686)
this people
<05971>
at all
<03276> (8687)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
23:33
And when this people
<05971>_,
or the prophet
<05030>_,
or a priest
<03548>_,
shall ask
<07592> (8799)
thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
What [is] the burden
<04853>
of the LORD
<03068>_?
thou shalt then say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, What burden
<04853>_?
I will even forsake
<05203> (8804)
you, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
23:34
And [as for] the prophet
<05030>_,
and the priest
<03548>_,
and the people
<05971>_,
that shall say
<0559> (8799)_,
The burden
<04853>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
I will even punish
<06485> (8804)
that man
<0376>
and his house
<01004>_.
{punish: Heb. visit upon}
23:35
Thus shall ye say
<0559> (8799)
every one
<0376>
to his neighbour
<07453>_,
and every one
<0376>
to his brother
<0251>_,
What hath the LORD
<03068>
answered
<06030> (8804)_?
and, What hath the LORD
<03068>
spoken
<01696> (8765)_?
23:36
And the burden
<04853>
of the LORD
<03068>
shall ye mention
<02142> (8799)
no more: for every man's
<0376>
word
<01697>
shall be his burden
<04853>_;
for ye have perverted
<02015> (8804)
the words
<01697>
of the living
<02416>
God
<0430>_,
of the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>
our God
<0430>_.
23:37
Thus shalt thou say
<0559> (8799)
to the prophet
<05030>_,
What hath the LORD
<03068>
answered
<06030> (8804)
thee? and, What hath the LORD
<03068>
spoken
<01696> (8765)_?
23:38
But
<0518>
since ye say
<0559> (8799)_,
The burden
<04853>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Because ye say
<0559> (8800)
this word
<01697>_,
The burden
<04853>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and I have sent
<07971> (8799)
unto you, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Ye shall not say
<0559> (8799)_,
The burden
<04853>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
23:39
Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly
<05377> (8800)
forget
<05382> (8804)
you, and I will forsake
<05203> (8804)
you, and the city
<05892>
that I gave
<05414> (8804)
you and your fathers
<01>_,
[and cast you] out of my presence
<06440>_:
23:40
And I will bring
<05414> (8804)
an everlasting
<05769>
reproach
<02781>
upon you, and a perpetual
<05769>
shame
<03640>_,
which shall not be forgotten
<07911> (8735)_.
24:1
The LORD
<03068>
shewed
<07200> (8689)
me, and, behold, two
<08147>
baskets
<01736>
of figs
<08384>
[were] set
<03259> (8716)
before
<06440>
the temple
<01964>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
after
<0310>
that Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>
had carried away captive
<01540> (8687)
Jeconiah
<03204>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiakim
<03079>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and the princes
<08269>
of Judah
<03063>_,
with the carpenters
<02796>
and smiths
<04525>_,
from Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and had brought
<0935> (8686)
them to Babylon
<0894>_.
24:2
One
<0259>
basket
<01731>
[had] very
<03966>
good
<02896>
figs
<08384>_,
[even] like the figs
<08384>
[that are] first ripe
<01073>_:
and the other
<0259>
basket
<01731>
[had] very
<03966>
naughty
<07451>
figs
<08384>_,
which could not be eaten
<0398> (8735)_,
they were so bad
<07455>_.
{they...: Heb. for badness}
24:3
Then said
<0559> (8799)
the LORD
<03068>
unto me, What seest
<07200> (8802)
thou, Jeremiah
<03414>_?
And I said
<0559> (8799)_,
Figs
<08384>_;
the good
<02896>
figs
<08384>_,
very
<03966>
good
<02896>_;
and the evil
<07451>_,
very
<03966>
evil
<07451>_,
that cannot be eaten
<0398> (8735)_,
they are so evil
<07455>_.
24:4
Again the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came unto me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
24:5
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Like these good
<02896>
figs
<08384>_,
so will I acknowledge
<05234> (8686)
them that are carried away captive
<01546>
of Judah
<03063>_,
whom I have sent
<07971> (8765)
out of this place
<04725>
into the land
<0776>
of the Chaldeans
<03778>
for [their] good
<02896>_.
{them...: Heb. the captivity}
24:6
For I will set
<07760> (8804)
mine eyes
<05869>
upon them for good
<02896>_,
and I will bring them again
<07725> (8689)
to this land
<0776>_:
and I will build
<01129> (8804)
them, and not pull [them] down
<02040> (8799)_;
and I will plant
<05193> (8804)
them, and not pluck [them] up
<05428> (8799)_.
24:7
And I will give
<05414> (8804)
them an heart
<03820>
to know
<03045> (8800)
me, that I [am] the LORD
<03068>_:
and they shall be my people
<05971>_,
and I will be their God
<0430>_:
for they shall return
<07725> (8799)
unto me with their whole heart
<03820>_.
24:8
And as the evil
<07451>
figs
<08384>_,
which cannot be eaten
<0398> (8735)_,
they are so evil
<07455>_;
surely thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
So will I give
<05414> (8799)
Zedekiah
<06667>
the king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and his princes
<08269>_,
and the residue
<07611>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
that remain
<07604> (8737)
in this land
<0776>_,
and them that dwell
<03427> (8802)
in the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_:
24:9
And I will deliver
<05414> (8804)
them to be removed
<02189> (8675) <02113>
into all the kingdoms
<04467>
of the earth
<0776>
for [their] hurt
<07451>_,
[to be] a reproach
<02781>
and a proverb
<04912>_,
a taunt
<08148>
and a curse
<07045>_,
in all places
<04725>
whither I shall drive
<05080> (8686)
them. {to be removed: Heb. for removing, or, vexation}
24:10
And I will send
<07971> (8765)
the sword
<02719>_,
the famine
<07458>_,
and the pestilence
<01698>_,
among them, till they be consumed
<08552> (8800)
from off the land
<0127>
that I gave
<05414> (8804)
unto them and to their fathers
<01>_.
25:1
The word
<01697>
that came to Jeremiah
<03414>
concerning all the people
<05971>
of Judah
<03063>
in the fourth
<07243>
year
<08141>
of Jehoiakim
<03079>
the son
<01121>
of Josiah
<02977>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
that [was] the first
<07224>
year
<08141>
of Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>
king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_;
25:2
The which Jeremiah
<03414>
the prophet
<05030>
spake
<01696> (8765)
unto all the people
<05971>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and to all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
25:3
From the thirteenth
<07969> <06240>
year
<08141>
of Josiah
<02977>
the son
<01121>
of Amon
<0526>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
even unto this day
<03117>_,
that [is] the three
<07969>
and twentieth
<06242>
year
<08141>_,
the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
hath come unto me, and I have spoken
<01696> (8762)
unto you, rising early
<07925> (8687)
and speaking
<01696> (8763)_;
but ye have not hearkened
<08085> (8804)_.
25:4
And the LORD
<03068>
hath sent
<07971> (8804)
unto you all his servants
<05650>
the prophets
<05030>_,
rising early
<07925> (8687)
and sending
<07971> (8800)
[them]; but ye have not hearkened
<08085> (8804)_,
nor inclined
<05186> (8689)
your ear
<0241>
to hear
<08085> (8800)_.
25:5
They said
<0559> (8800)_,
Turn ye again
<07725> (8798)
now every one
<0376>
from his evil
<07451>
way
<01870>_,
and from the evil
<07455>
of your doings
<04611>_,
and dwell
<03427> (8798)
in the land
<0127>
that the LORD
<03068>
hath given
<05414> (8804)
unto you and to your fathers
<01>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>
and ever
<05769>_:
25:6
And go
<03212> (8799)
not after
<0310>
other
<0312>
gods
<0430>
to serve
<05647> (8800)
them, and to worship
<07812> (8692)
them, and provoke me not to anger
<03707> (8686)
with the works
<04639>
of your hands
<03027>_;
and I will do you no hurt
<07489> (8686)_.
25:7
Yet ye have not hearkened
<08085> (8804)
unto me, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
that ye might provoke me to anger
<03707> (8687)
with the works
<04639>
of your hands
<03027>
to your own hurt
<07451>_.
25:8
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_;
Because ye have not heard
<08085> (8804)
my words
<01697>_,
25:9
Behold, I will send
<07971> (8802)
and take
<03947> (8804)
all the families
<04940>
of the north
<06828>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
and Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>
the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
my servant
<05650>_,
and will bring
<0935> (8689)
them against this land
<0776>_,
and against the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
thereof, and against all these nations
<01471>
round about
<05439>_,
and will utterly destroy
<02763> (8689)
them, and make
<07760> (8804)
them an astonishment
<08047>_,
and an hissing
<08322>_,
and perpetual
<05769>
desolations
<02723>_.
25:10
Moreover I will take
<06> (8689)
from them the voice
<06963>
of mirth
<08342>_,
and the voice
<06963>
of gladness
<08057>_,
the voice
<06963>
of the bridegroom
<02860>_,
and the voice
<06963>
of the bride
<03618>_,
the sound
<06963>
of the millstones
<07347>_,
and the light
<0216>
of the candle
<05216>_.
{I will...: Heb. I will cause to perish from them}
25:11
And this whole land
<0776>
shall be a desolation
<02723>_,
[and] an astonishment
<08047>_;
and these nations
<01471>
shall serve
<05647> (8804)
the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>
seventy
<07657>
years
<08141>_.
25:12
And it shall come to pass, when seventy
<07657>
years
<08141>
are accomplished
<04390> (8800)_,
[that] I will punish
<06485> (8799)
the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_,
and that nation
<01471>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
for their iniquity
<05771>_,
and the land
<0776>
of the Chaldeans
<03778>_,
and will make
<07760> (8804)
it perpetual
<05769>
desolations
<08077>_.
{punish: Heb. visit upon}
25:13
And I will bring
<0935> (8689)
upon that land
<0776>
all my words
<01697>
which I have pronounced
<01696> (8765)
against it, [even] all that is written
<03789> (8803)
in this book
<05612>_,
which Jeremiah
<03414>
hath prophesied
<05012> (8738)
against all the nations
<01471>_.
25:14
For many
<07227>
nations
<01471>
and great
<01419>
kings
<04428>
shall serve
<05647> (8804)
themselves of them also: and I will recompense
<07999> (8765)
them according to their deeds
<06467>_,
and according to the works
<04639>
of their own hands
<03027>_.
25:15
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>
unto me; Take
<03947> (8798)
the wine
<03196>
cup
<03563>
of this fury
<02534>
at my hand
<03027>_,
and cause all the nations
<01471>_,
to whom I send
<07971> (8802)
thee, to drink
<08248> (8689)
it.
25:16
And they shall drink
<08354> (8804)_,
and be moved
<01607> (8707)_,
and be mad
<01984> (8703)_,
because
<06440>
of the sword
<02719>
that I will send
<07971> (8802)
among them.
25:17
Then took
<03947> (8799)
I the cup
<03563>
at the LORD'S
<03068>
hand
<03027>_,
and made all the nations
<01471>
to drink
<08248> (8686)_,
unto whom the LORD
<03068>
had sent
<07971> (8804)
me:
25:18
[To wit], Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and the cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and the kings
<04428>
thereof, and the princes
<08269>
thereof, to make
<05414> (8800)
them a desolation
<02723>_,
an astonishment
<08047>_,
an hissing
<08322>_,
and a curse
<07045>_;
as [it is] this day
<03117>_;
25:19
Pharaoh
<06547>
king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
and his servants
<05650>_,
and his princes
<08269>_,
and all his people
<05971>_;
25:20
And all the mingled
<06153>
people, and all the kings
<04428>
of the land
<0776>
of Uz
<05780>_,
and all the kings
<04428>
of the land
<0776>
of the Philistines
<06430>_,
and Ashkelon
<0831>_,
and Azzah
<05804>_,
and Ekron
<06138>_,
and the remnant
<07611>
of Ashdod
<0795>_,
25:21
Edom
<0123>_,
and Moab
<04124>_,
and the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>_,
25:22
And all the kings
<04428>
of Tyrus
<06865>_,
and all the kings
<04428>
of Zidon
<06721>_,
and the kings
<04428>
of the isles
<0339>
which [are] beyond
<05676>
the sea
<03220>_,
{isles: or, region by the sea side}
25:23
Dedan
<01719>_,
and Tema
<08485>_,
and Buz
<0938>_,
and all [that are] in the utmost
<07112> (8803)
corners
<06285>_,
{that...: Heb. cut off into corners, or, having the corners of the hair polled}
25:24
And all the kings
<04428>
of Arabia
<06152>_,
and all the kings
<04428>
of the mingled people
<06153>
that dwell
<07931> (8802)
in the desert
<04057>_,
25:25
And all the kings
<04428>
of Zimri
<02174>_,
and all the kings
<04428>
of Elam
<05867>_,
and all the kings
<04428>
of the Medes
<04074>_,
25:26
And all the kings
<04428>
of the north
<06828>_,
far
<07350>
and near
<07138>_,
one
<0376>
with another
<0251>_,
and all the kingdoms
<04467>
of the world
<0776>_,
which [are] upon the face
<06440>
of the earth
<0127>_:
and the king
<04428>
of Sheshach
<08347>
shall drink
<08354> (8799)
after
<0310>
them.
25:27
Therefore thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Drink
<08354> (8798)
ye, and be drunken
<07937> (8798)_,
and spue
<07006> (8798)_,
and fall
<05307> (8798)_,
and rise
<06965> (8799)
no more, because
<06440>
of the sword
<02719>
which I will send
<07971> (8802)
among you.
25:28
And it shall be, if they refuse
<03985> (8762)
to take
<03947> (8800)
the cup
<03563>
at thine hand
<03027>
to drink
<08354> (8800)_,
then shalt thou say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_;
Ye shall certainly
<08354> (8800)
drink
<08354> (8799)_.
25:29
For, lo, I begin
<02490> (8688)
to bring evil
<07489> (8687)
on the city
<05892>
which is called
<07121> (8738)
by my name
<08034>_,
and should ye be utterly
<05352> (8736)
unpunished
<05352> (8735)_?
Ye shall not be unpunished
<05352> (8736)_:
for I will call
<07121> (8802)
for a sword
<02719>
upon all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the earth
<0776>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_.
{which...: Heb. upon which my name is called}
25:30
Therefore prophesy
<05012> (8735)
thou against them all these words
<01697>_,
and say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, The LORD
<03068>
shall roar
<07580> (8799)
from on high
<04791>_,
and utter
<05414> (8799)
his voice
<06963>
from his holy
<06944>
habitation
<04583>_;
he shall mightily
<07580> (8800)
roar
<07580> (8799)
upon his habitation
<05116>_;
he shall give
<06030> (8799)
a shout
<01959>_,
as they that tread
<01869> (8802)
[the grapes], against all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of the earth
<0776>_.
25:31
A noise
<07588>
shall come
<0935> (8804)
[even] to the ends
<07097>
of the earth
<0776>_;
for the LORD
<03068>
hath a controversy
<07379>
with the nations
<01471>_,
he will plead
<08199> (8737)
with all flesh
<01320>_;
he will give
<05414> (8804)
them [that are] wicked
<07563>
to the sword
<02719>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
25:32
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
Behold, evil
<07451>
shall go forth
<03318> (8802)
from nation
<01471>
to nation
<01471>_,
and a great
<01419>
whirlwind
<05591>
shall be raised up
<05782> (8735)
from the coasts
<03411>
of the earth
<0776>_.
25:33
And the slain
<02491>
of the LORD
<03068>
shall be at that day
<03117>
from [one] end
<07097>
of the earth
<0776>
even unto the [other] end
<07097>
of the earth
<0776>_:
they shall not be lamented
<05594> (8735)_,
neither gathered
<0622> (8735)_,
nor buried
<06912> (8735)_;
they shall be dung
<01828>
upon
<06440>
the ground
<0127>_.
25:34
Howl
<03213> (8685)_,
ye shepherds
<07462> (8802)_,
and cry
<02199> (8798)_;
and wallow
<06428> (8690)
yourselves [in the ashes], ye principal
<0117>
of the flock
<06629>_:
for the days
<03117>
of your slaughter
<02873> (8800)
and of your dispersions
<08600>
are accomplished
<04390> (8804)_;
and ye shall fall
<05307> (8804)
like a pleasant
<02532>
vessel
<03627>_.
{the days...: Heb. your days for slaughter} {a pleasant...: Heb. a vessel of desire}
25:35
And the shepherds
<07462> (8802)
shall have no way
<04498>
to flee
<06> (8804)_,
nor the principal
<0117>
of the flock
<06629>
to escape
<06413>_.
{the shepherds...: Heb. flight shall perish from the shepherds, and escaping from, etc}
25:36
A voice
<06963>
of the cry
<06818>
of the shepherds
<07462> (8802)_,
and an howling
<03215>
of the principal
<0117>
of the flock
<06629>_,
[shall be heard]: for the LORD
<03068>
hath spoiled
<07703> (8802)
their pasture
<04830>_.
25:37
And the peaceable
<07965>
habitations
<04999>
are cut down
<01826> (8738)
because
<06440>
of the fierce
<02740>
anger
<0639>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
25:38
He hath forsaken
<05800> (8804)
his covert
<05520>_,
as the lion
<03715>_:
for their land
<0776>
is desolate
<08047>
because
<06440>
of the fierceness
<02740>
of the oppressor
<03238> (8802)_,
and because
<06440>
of his fierce
<02740>
anger
<0639>_.
{desolate: Heb. a desolation}
