Jeremiah 19:4-15

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>_.
