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

<0123>_,

and Moab
<04124>_,

and the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_,

25:22

And all the kings
<04428>

{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

And all the kings

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>_.
