Jeremiah 21:4--22:30

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>_,

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>_.

Jeremiah 26:12-15

26:12

Then spake
<0559> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>

unto all the princes
<08269>

and to all the people
<05971>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The LORD

against this house
<01004>

all the words
<01697>

that ye have heard
<08085> (8804)_.

26:13

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.

26:14

As for me, behold, I [am] in your hand
<03027>_:

do
<06213> (8798)

with me as seemeth

good
<02896>

and meet
<03477>

unto you. {as...: Heb. as it is good and right in your eyes}

<03045> (8799)

ye for certain

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>_.

<04422> (8735)

of his hand
<03027>_,

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

<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

of the heaven
<08064>_,

and to the beasts

Behold, I will command

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and cause them to return

against it, and take
<03920> (8804)

it, and burn
<08313> (8804)

it with fire

the cities

of Judah
<03063>

a desolation
<08077>

without an inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_.

Jeremiah 36:27-32

36:27

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)_,

36:28

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)_.

36:29

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>_?

36:30

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>_.

36:31

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}

36:32

Then took
<03947> (8804)

Jeremiah
<03414>

<0312>

roll
<04039>_,

<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

besides unto them many
<07227>

like
<01992>

words
<01697>_.

{like: Heb. as they}

37:7

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

the God

of Israel
<03478>_;

Thus shall ye say
<0559> (8799)

to the king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

that sent
<07971> (8802)

you unto me to enquire
<01875> (8800)

of me; Behold, Pharaoh's
<06547>

army
<02428>_,

which is come forth
<03318> (8802)

to help
<05833>

you, shall return

to Egypt
<04714>

into their own land
<0776>_.

in this city
<05892>

shall die
<04191> (8799)

by the sword
<02719>_,

by the famine
<07458>_,

and by the pestilence
<01698>_:

but he that goeth forth
<03318> (8802)

to the Chaldeans
<03778>

shall live
<02421> (8804)_;

for he shall have his life
<05315>

for a prey
<07998>_,

and shall live
<02421> (8799) (8675) <02425> (8804)_.

But if thou wilt not go forth
<03318> (8799)

to the king
<04428>

of Babylon's

princes
<08269>_,

then shall this city
<05892>

be given
<05414> (8738)

into the hand
<03027>

of the Chaldeans
<03778>_,

and they shall burn
<08313> (8804)

it with fire
<0784>_,

and thou shalt not escape out
<04422> (8735)

of their hand
<03027>_.

by the sword
<02719>_,

by the famine
<07458>_,

and by the pestilence

to go

[and] to sojourn
<01481> (8800)_.
