Jeremiah 34:1--45:5

34:1

The word
<01697>

which came unto Jeremiah
<03414>

from the LORD
<03068>_,

when Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>_,

and all his army
<02428>_,

and all the kingdoms
<04467>

of the earth
<0776>

of his dominion
<03027> <04475>_,

and all the people
<05971>_,

fought
<03898> (8737)

against Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and against all the cities
<05892>

thereof, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

{of his...: Heb. the dominion of his hand}

34:2

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Go
<01980> (8800)

and speak
<0559> (8804)

to Zedekiah
<06667>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and tell
<0559> (8804)

him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_;

Behold, I will give
<05414> (8802)

this city
<05892>

into the hand
<03027>

of the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>_,

and he shall burn
<08313> (8804)

it with fire
<0784>_:

34:3

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

of his hand
<03027>_,

but shalt surely
<08610> (8800)

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
<0935> (8799)

to Babylon
<0894>_.

{he shall...: Heb. his mouth shall speak to thy mouth}

34:4

Yet hear
<08085> (8798)

the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

O Zedekiah
<06667>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_;

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of thee, Thou shalt not die
<04191> (8799)

by the sword
<02719>_:

34:5

[But] thou shalt die
<04191> (8799)

in peace
<07965>_:

and with the burnings
<04955>

of thy fathers
<01>_,

the former
<07223>

kings
<04428>

which were before
<06440>

thee, so shall they burn
<08313> (8799)

[odours] for thee; and they will lament
<05594> (8799)

thee, [saying], Ah
<01945>

lord
<0113>_!

for I have pronounced
<01696> (8765)

the word
<01697>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

34:6

Then Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>

spake
<01696> (8762)

all these words
<01697>

unto Zedekiah
<06667>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

34:7

When the king
<04428>

of Babylon's
<0894>

army
<02428>

fought
<03898> (8737)

against Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and against all the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>

that were left
<03498> (8737)_,

against Lachish
<03923>_,

and against Azekah
<05825>_:

for these defenced
<04013>

cities
<05892>

remained
<07604> (8738)

of the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>_.

34:8

[This is] the word
<01697>

that came unto Jeremiah
<03414>

from the LORD
<03068>_,

after
<0310>

that the king
<04428>

Zedekiah
<06667>

had made
<03772> (8800)

a covenant
<01285>

with all the people
<05971>

which [were] at Jerusalem
<03389>_,

to proclaim
<07121> (8800)

liberty
<01865>

unto them;

34:9

That every man
<0376>

should let his manservant
<05650>_,

and every man
<0376>

his maidservant
<08198>_,

[being] an Hebrew
<05680>

or an Hebrewess
<05680>_,

go
<07971> (8763)

free
<02670>_;

that none should serve
<05647> (8800)

himself of them, [to wit], of a Jew
<03064>

his brother
<0251>_.

34:10

Now when all the princes
<08269>_,

and all the people
<05971>_,

which had entered
<0935> (8804)

into the covenant
<01285>_,

heard
<08085> (8799)

that every one
<0376>

should let his manservant
<05650>_,

and every one
<0376>

his maidservant
<08198>_,

go
<07971> (8763)

free
<02670>_,

that none should serve
<05647> (8800)

themselves of them any more, then they obeyed
<08085> (8799)_,

and let [them] go
<07971> (8762)_.

34:11

But afterward
<0310>

they turned
<07725> (8799)_,

and caused the servants
<05650>

and the handmaids
<08198>_,

whom they had let go
<07971> (8765)

free
<02670>_,

to return
<07725> (8686)_,

and brought them into subjection
<03533> (8799) (8675) <03533> (8686)

for servants
<05650>

and for handmaids
<08198>_.

34:12

Therefore the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

came to Jeremiah
<03414>

from the LORD
<03068>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

34:13

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

I made
<03772> (8804)

a covenant
<01285>

with your fathers
<01>

in the day
<03117>

that I brought them forth
<03318> (8687)

out of the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

out of the house
<01004>

of bondmen
<05650>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

34:14

At the end
<07093>

of seven
<07651>

years
<08141>

let ye go
<07971> (8762)

every man
<0376>

his brother
<0251>

an Hebrew
<05680>_,

which hath been sold
<04376> (8735)

unto thee; and when he hath served
<05647> (8804)

thee six
<08337>

years
<08141>_,

thou shalt let him go
<07971> (8765)

free
<02670>

from thee: but your fathers
<01>

hearkened
<08085> (8804)

not unto me, neither inclined
<05186> (8689)

their ear
<0241>_.

{hath been...: or, hath sold himself}

34:15

And ye were now
<03117>

turned
<07725> (8799)_,

and had done
<06213> (8799)

right
<03477>

in my sight
<05869>_,

in proclaiming
<07121> (8800)

liberty
<01865>

every man
<0376>

to his neighbour
<07453>_;

and ye had made
<03772> (8799)

a covenant
<01285>

before
<06440>

me in the house
<01004>

which is called
<07121> (8738)

by my name
<08034>_:

{now: Heb. to day} {which...: Heb. whereupon my name is called}

34:16

But ye turned
<07725> (8799)

and polluted
<02490> (8762)

my name
<08034>_,

and caused every man
<0376>

his servant
<05650>_,

and every man
<0376>

his handmaid
<08198>_,

whom ye had set
<07971> (8765)

at liberty
<02670>

at their pleasure
<05315>_,

to return
<07725> (8686)_,

and brought them into subjection
<03533> (8799)_,

to be unto you for servants
<05650>

and for handmaids
<08198>_.

34:17

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_;

Ye have not hearkened
<08085> (8804)

unto me, in proclaiming
<07121> (8800)

liberty
<01865>_,

every one
<0376>

to his brother
<0251>_,

and every man
<0376>

to his neighbour
<07453>_:

behold, I proclaim
<07121> (8802)

a liberty
<01865>

for you, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

to the sword
<02719>_,

to the pestilence
<01698>_,

and to the famine
<07458>_;

and I will make
<05414> (8804)

you to be removed
<02189> (8675) <02113>

into all the kingdoms
<04467>

of the earth
<0776>_.

{to be...: Heb. for a removing}

34:18

And I will give
<05414> (8804)

the men
<0582>

that have transgressed
<05674> (8802)

my covenant
<01285>_,

which have not performed
<06965> (8689)

the words
<01697>

of the covenant
<01285>

which they had made
<03772> (8804)

before
<06440>

me, when they cut
<03772> (8804)

the calf
<05695>

in twain
<08147>_,

and passed
<05674> (8799)

between the parts
<01335>

thereof,

34:19

The princes
<08269>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and the princes
<08269>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_,

the eunuchs
<05631>_,

and the priests
<03548>_,

and all the people
<05971>

of the land
<0776>_,

which passed
<05674> (8802)

between the parts
<01335>

of the calf
<05695>_;

34:20

I will even give
<05414> (8804)

them into the hand
<03027>

of their enemies
<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
<05775>

of the heaven
<08064>_,

and to the beasts
<0929>

of the earth
<0776>_.

34:21

And Zedekiah
<06667>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

and his princes
<08269>

will I give
<05414> (8799)

into the hand
<03027>

of their enemies
<0341> (8802)_,

and into the hand
<03027>

of them that seek
<01245> (8764)

their life
<05315>_,

and into the hand
<03027>

of the king
<04428>

of Babylon's
<0894>

army
<02428>_,

which are gone up
<05927> (8802)

from you.

34:22

Behold, I will command
<06680> (8764)_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and cause them to return
<07725> (8689)

to this city
<05892>_;

and they shall fight
<03898> (8738)

against it, and take
<03920> (8804)

it, and burn
<08313> (8804)

it with fire
<0784>_:

and I will make
<05414> (8799)

the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>

a desolation
<08077>

without an inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_.

35:1

The word
<01697>

which came unto Jeremiah
<03414>

from the LORD
<03068>

in the days
<03117>

of Jehoiakim
<03079>

the son
<01121>

of Josiah
<02977>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

35:2

Go
<01980> (8800)

unto the house
<01004>

of the Rechabites
<07397>_,

and speak
<01696> (8765)

unto them, and bring
<0935> (8689)

them into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

into one
<0259>

of the chambers
<03957>_,

and give them wine
<03196>

to drink
<08248> (8689)_.

35:3

Then I took
<03947> (8799)

Jaazaniah
<02970>

the son
<01121>

of Jeremiah
<03414>_,

the son
<01121>

of Habaziniah
<02262>_,

and his brethren
<0251>_,

and all his sons
<01121>_,

and the whole house
<01004>

of the Rechabites
<07397>_;

35:4

And I brought
<0935> (8686)

them into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

into the chamber
<03957>

of the sons
<01121>

of Hanan
<02605>_,

the son
<01121>

of Igdaliah
<03012>_,

a man
<0376>

of God
<0430>_,

which [was] by
<0681>

the chamber
<03957>

of the princes
<08269>_,

which [was] above
<04605>

the chamber
<03957>

of Maaseiah
<04641>

the son
<01121>

of Shallum
<07967>_,

the keeper
<08104> (8802)

of the door
<05592>_:

{door: Heb. threshold, or, vessel}

35:5

And I set
<05414> (8799)

before
<06440>

the sons
<01121>

of the house
<01004>

of the Rechabites
<07397>

pots
<01375>

full
<04392>

of wine
<03196>_,

and cups
<03563>_,

and I said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Drink
<08354> (8798)

ye wine
<03196>_.

35:6

But they said
<0559> (8799)_,

We will drink
<08354> (8799)

no wine
<03196>_:

for Jonadab
<03122>

the son
<01121>

of Rechab
<07394>

our father
<01>

commanded
<06680> (8765)

us, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Ye shall drink
<08354> (8799)

no wine
<03196>_,

[neither ye], nor your sons
<01121>

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_:

35:7

Neither shall ye build
<01129> (8799)

house
<01004>_,

nor sow
<02232> (8799)

seed
<02233>_,

nor plant
<05193> (8799)

vineyard
<03754>_,

nor have [any]: but all your days
<03117>

ye shall dwell
<03427> (8799)

in tents
<0168>_;

that ye may live
<02421> (8799)

many
<07227>

days
<03117>

in
<06440>

the land
<0127>

where ye [be] strangers
<01481> (8802)_.

35:8

Thus have we obeyed
<08085> (8799)

the voice
<06963>

of Jonadab
<03082>

the son
<01121>

of Rechab
<07394>

our father
<01>

in all that he hath charged
<06680> (8765)

us, to drink
<08354> (8800)

no wine
<03196>

all our days
<03117>_,

we, our wives
<0802>_,

our sons
<01121>_,

nor our daughters
<01323>_;

35:9

Nor to build
<01129> (8800)

houses
<01004>

for us to dwell in
<03427> (8800)_:

neither have we vineyard
<03754>_,

nor field
<07704>_,

nor seed
<02233>_:

35:10

But we have dwelt in
<03427> (8799)

tents
<0168>_,

and have obeyed
<08085> (8799)_,

and done
<06213> (8799)

according to all that Jonadab
<03122>

our father
<01>

commanded
<06680> (8765)

us.

35:11

But it came to pass, when Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

came up
<05927> (8800)

into the land
<0776>_,

that we said
<0559> (8799)_,

Come
<0935> (8798)_,

and let us go
<0935> (8799)

to Jerusalem
<03389>

for fear
<06440>

of the army
<02428>

of the Chaldeans
<03778>_,

and for fear
<06440>

of the army
<02428>

of the Syrians
<0758>_:

so we dwell
<03427> (8799)

at Jerusalem
<03389>_.

35:12

Then came the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

35:13

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Go
<01980> (8800)

and tell
<0559> (8804)

the men
<0376>

of Judah
<03063>

and the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of Jerusalem
<03389>_,

Will ye not receive
<03947> (8799)

instruction
<04148>

to hearken
<08085> (8800)

to my words
<01697>_?

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

35:14

The words
<01697>

of Jonadab
<03082>

the son
<01121>

of Rechab
<07394>_,

that he commanded
<06680> (8765)

his sons
<01121>

not to drink
<08354> (8800)

wine
<03196>_,

are performed
<06965> (8717)_;

for unto this day
<03117>

they drink
<08354> (8804)

none, but obey
<08085> (8804)

their father's
<01>

commandment
<04687>_:

notwithstanding I have spoken
<01696> (8765)

unto you, rising early
<07925> (8687)

and speaking
<01696> (8763)_;

but ye hearkened
<08085> (8804)

not unto me.

35:15

I have sent
<07971> (8799)

also unto you all my servants
<05650>

the prophets
<05030>_,

rising up early
<07925> (8687)

and sending
<07971> (8800)

[them], saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Return
<07725> (8798)

ye now every man
<0376>

from his evil
<07451>

way
<01870>_,

and amend
<03190> (8685)

your doings
<04611>_,

and go
<03212> (8799)

not after
<0310>

other
<0312>

gods
<0430>

to serve
<05647> (8800)

them, and ye shall dwell in
<03427> (8798)

the land
<0127>

which I have given
<05414> (8804)

to you and to your fathers
<01>_:

but ye have not inclined
<05186> (8689)

your ear
<0241>_,

nor hearkened
<08085> (8804)

unto me.

35:16

Because the sons
<01121>

of Jonadab
<03082>

the son
<01121>

of Rechab
<07394>

have performed
<06965> (8689)

the commandment
<04687>

of their father
<01>_,

which he commanded
<06680> (8765)

them; but this people
<05971>

hath not hearkened
<08085> (8804)

unto me:

35:17

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)

upon Judah
<03063>

and upon all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of Jerusalem
<03389>

all the evil
<07451>

that I have pronounced
<01696> (8765)

against them: because I have spoken
<01696> (8765)

unto them, but they have not heard
<08085> (8804)_;

and I have called
<07121> (8799)

unto them, but they have not answered
<06030> (8804)_.

35:18

And Jeremiah
<03414>

said
<0559> (8804)

unto the house
<01004>

of the Rechabites
<07397>_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Because ye have obeyed
<08085> (8804)

the commandment
<04687>

of Jonadab
<03082>

your father
<01>_,

and kept
<08104> (8799)

all his precepts
<04687>_,

and done
<06213> (8799)

according unto all that he hath commanded
<06680> (8765)

you:

35:19

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Jonadab
<03122>

the son
<01121>

of Rechab
<07394>

shall not want
<03772> (8735)

a man
<0376>

to stand
<05975> (8802)

before
<06440>

me for ever
<03117>_.

{Jonadab...: Heb. There shall not a man be cut off from Jonadab the son of Rechab to stand, etc}

36:1

And it came to pass in the fourth
<07243>

year
<08141>

of Jehoiakim
<03079>

the son
<01121>

of Josiah
<02977>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

[that] this word
<01697>

came unto Jeremiah
<03414>

from the LORD
<03068>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

36:2

Take
<03947> (8798)

thee a roll
<04039>

of a book
<05612>_,

and write
<03789> (8804)

therein all the words
<01697>

that I have spoken
<01696> (8765)

unto thee against Israel
<03478>_,

and against Judah
<03063>_,

and against all the nations
<01471>_,

from the day
<03117>

I spake
<01696> (8765)

unto thee, from the days
<03117>

of Josiah
<02977>_,

even unto this day
<03117>_.

36:3

It may be that the house
<01004>

of Judah
<03063>

will hear
<08085> (8799)

all the evil
<07451>

which I purpose
<02803> (8802)

to do
<06213> (8800)

unto them; that they may return
<07725> (8799)

every man
<0376>

from his evil
<07451>

way
<01870>_;

that I may forgive
<05545> (8804)

their iniquity
<05771>

and their sin
<02403>_.

36:4

Then Jeremiah
<03414>

called
<07121> (8799)

Baruch
<01263>

the son
<01121>

of Neriah
<05374>_:

and Baruch
<01263>

wrote
<03789> (8799)

from the mouth
<06310>

of Jeremiah
<03414>

all the words
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

which he had spoken
<01696> (8765)

unto him, upon a roll
<04039>

of a book
<05612>_.

36:5

And Jeremiah
<03414>

commanded
<06680> (8762)

Baruch
<01263>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

I [am] shut up
<06113> (8803)_;

I cannot
<03201> (8799)

go
<0935> (8800)

into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

36:6

Therefore go
<0935> (8804)

thou, and read
<07121> (8804)

in the roll
<04039>_,

which thou hast written
<03789> (8804)

from my mouth
<06310>_,

the words
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

in the ears
<0241>

of the people
<05971>

in the LORD'S
<03068>

house
<01004>

upon the fasting
<06685>

day
<03117>_:

and also thou shalt read
<07121> (8799)

them in the ears
<0241>

of all Judah
<03063>

that come out
<0935> (8802)

of their cities
<05892>_.

36:7

It may be they will present
<05307> (8799)

their supplication
<08467>

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_,

and will return
<07725> (8799)

every one
<0376>

from his evil
<07451>

way
<01870>_:

for great
<01419>

[is] the anger
<0639>

and the fury
<02534>

that the LORD
<03068>

hath pronounced
<01696> (8765)

against this people
<05971>_.

{they...: Heb. their supplication shall fail}

36:8

And Baruch
<01263>

the son
<01121>

of Neriah
<05374>

did
<06213> (8799)

according to all that Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>

commanded
<06680> (8765)

him, reading
<07121> (8800)

in the book
<05612>

the words
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

in the LORD'S
<03068>

house
<01004>_.

36:9

And it came to pass in the fifth
<02549>

year
<08141>

of Jehoiakim
<03079>

the son
<01121>

of Josiah
<02977>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

in the ninth
<08671>

month
<02320>_,

[that] they proclaimed
<07121> (8804)

a fast
<06685>

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>

to all the people
<05971>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and to all the people
<05971>

that came
<0935> (8802)

from the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>

unto Jerusalem
<03389>_.

36:10

Then read
<07121> (8799)

Baruch
<01263>

in the book
<05612>

the words
<01697>

of Jeremiah
<03414>

in the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

in the chamber
<03957>

of Gemariah
<01587>

the son
<01121>

of Shaphan
<08227>

the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,

in the higher
<05945>

court
<02691>_,

at the entry
<06607>

of the new
<02319>

gate
<08179>

of the LORD'S
<03068>

house
<01004>_,

in the ears
<0241>

of all the people
<05971>_.

{entry: or, door}

36:11

When Michaiah
<04321>

the son
<01121>

of Gemariah
<01587>_,

the son
<01121>

of Shaphan
<08227>_,

had heard
<08085> (8799)

out of the book
<05612>

all the words
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

36:12

Then he went down
<03381> (8799)

into the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_,

into the scribe's
<05608> (8802)

chamber
<03957>_:

and, lo, all the princes
<08269>

sat
<03427> (8802)

there, [even] Elishama
<0476>

the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,

and Delaiah
<01806>

the son
<01121>

of Shemaiah
<08098>_,

and Elnathan
<0494>

the son
<01121>

of Achbor
<05907>_,

and Gemariah
<01587>

the son
<01121>

of Shaphan
<08227>_,

and Zedekiah
<06667>

the son
<01121>

of Hananiah
<02608>_,

and all the princes
<08269>_.

36:13

Then Michaiah
<04321>

declared
<05046> (8686)

unto them all the words
<01697>

that he had heard
<08085> (8804)_,

when Baruch
<01263>

read
<07121> (8800)

the book
<05612>

in the ears
<0241>

of the people
<05971>_.

36:14

Therefore all the princes
<08269>

sent
<07971> (8799)

Jehudi
<03065>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>_,

the son
<01121>

of Shelemiah
<08018>_,

the son
<01121>

of Cushi
<03570>_,

unto Baruch
<01263>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Take
<03947> (8798)

in thine hand
<03027>

the roll
<04039>

wherein thou hast read
<07121> (8804)

in the ears
<0241>

of the people
<05971>_,

and come
<03212> (8798)_.

So Baruch
<01263>

the son
<01121>

of Neriah
<05374>

took
<03947> (8799)

the roll
<04039>

in his hand
<03027>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

unto them.

36:15

And they said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Sit down
<03427> (8798)

now, and read
<07121> (8798)

it in our ears
<0241>_.

So Baruch
<01263>

read
<07121> (8799)

[it] in their ears
<0241>_.

36:16

Now it came to pass, when they had heard
<08085> (8800)

all the words
<01697>_,

they were afraid
<06342> (8804)

both
<0413>

one
<0376>

and other
<07453>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto Baruch
<01263>_,

We will surely
<05046> (8687)

tell
<05046> (8686)

the king
<04428>

of all these words
<01697>_.

36:17

And they asked
<07592> (8804)

Baruch
<01263>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Tell
<05046> (8685)

us now, How didst thou write
<03789> (8804)

all these words
<01697>

at his mouth
<06310>_?

36:18

Then Baruch
<01263>

answered
<0559> (8799)

them, He pronounced
<07121> (8799)

all these words
<01697>

unto me with his mouth
<06310>_,

and I wrote
<03789> (8802)

[them] with ink
<01773>

in the book
<05612>_.

36:19

Then said
<0559> (8799)

the princes
<08269>

unto Baruch
<01263>_,

Go
<03212> (8798)_,

hide
<05641> (8734)

thee, thou and Jeremiah
<03414>_;

and let no man
<0376>

know
<03045> (8799)

where
<0375>

ye be.

36:20

And they went in
<0935> (8799)

to the king
<04428>

into the court
<02691>_,

but they laid up
<06485> (8689)

the roll
<04039>

in the chamber
<03957>

of Elishama
<0476>

the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,

and told
<05046> (8686)

all the words
<01697>

in the ears
<0241>

of the king
<04428>_.

36:21

So the king
<04428>

sent
<07971> (8799)

Jehudi
<03065>

to fetch
<03947> (8800)

the roll
<04039>_:

and he took
<03947> (8799)

it out of Elishama
<0476>

the scribe's
<05608> (8802)

chamber
<03957>_.

And Jehudi
<03065>

read
<07121> (8799)

it in the ears
<0241>

of the king
<04428>_,

and in the ears
<0241>

of all the princes
<08269>

which stood
<05975> (8802)

beside
<05921>

the king
<04428>_.

36:22

Now the king
<04428>

sat
<03427> (8802)

in the winterhouse
<01004> <02779>

in the ninth
<08671>

month
<02320>_:

and [there was a fire] on the hearth
<0254>

burning
<01197> (8794)

before
<06440>

him.

36:23

And it came to pass, [that] when Jehudi
<03065>

had read
<07121> (8800)

three
<07969>

or four
<0702>

leaves
<01817>_,

he cut
<07167> (8799)

it with the penknife
<08593> <05608> (8802)_,

and cast
<07993> (8687)

[it] into the fire
<0784>

that [was] on the hearth
<0254>_,

until all the roll
<04039>

was consumed
<08552> (8800)

in the fire
<0784>

that [was] on the hearth
<0254>_.

36:24

Yet they were not afraid
<06342> (8804)_,

nor rent
<07167> (8804)

their garments
<0899>_,

[neither] the king
<04428>_,

nor any of his servants
<05650>

that heard
<08085> (8802)

all these words
<01697>_.

36:25

Nevertheless Elnathan
<0494>

and Delaiah
<01806>

and Gemariah
<01587>

had made intercession
<06293> (8689)

to the king
<04428>

that he would not burn
<08313> (8800)

the roll
<04039>_:

but he would not hear
<08085> (8804)

them.

36:26

But the king
<04428>

commanded
<06680> (8762)

Jerahmeel
<03396>

the son
<01121>

of Hammelech
<04429>_,

and Seraiah
<08304>

the son
<01121>

of Azriel
<05837>_,

and Shelemiah
<08018>

the son
<01121>

of Abdeel
<05655>_,

to take
<03947> (8800)

Baruch
<01263>

the scribe
<05608> (8802)

and Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>_:

but the LORD
<03068>

hid
<05641> (8686)

them. {of Hammelech: or, of the king}

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>

another
<0312>

roll
<04039>_,

and gave
<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
<03254> (8738)

besides unto them many
<07227>

like
<01992>

words
<01697>_.

{like: Heb. as they}

37:1

And king
<04428>

Zedekiah
<06667>

the son
<01121>

of Josiah
<02977>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

instead of Coniah
<03659>

the son
<01121>

of Jehoiakim
<03079>_,

whom Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

made king
<04427> (8689)

in the land
<0776>

of Judah
<03063>_.

37:2

But neither he, nor his servants
<05650>_,

nor the people
<05971>

of the land
<0776>_,

did hearken
<08085> (8804)

unto the words
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

which he spake
<01696> (8765)

by
<03027>

the prophet
<05030>

Jeremiah
<03414>_.

{by...: Heb. by the hand of the prophet}

37:3

And Zedekiah
<06667>

the king
<04428>

sent
<07971> (8799)

Jehucal
<03081>

the son
<01121>

of Shelemiah
<08018>

and Zephaniah
<06846>

the son
<01121>

of Maaseiah
<04641>

the priest
<03548>

to the prophet
<05030>

Jeremiah
<03414>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Pray
<06419> (8690)

now unto the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>

for us.

37:4

Now Jeremiah
<03414>

came in
<0935> (8804)

and went out
<03318> (8802)

among
<08432>

the people
<05971>_:

for they had not put
<05414> (8804)

him into prison
<01004> <03628>_.

37:5

Then Pharaoh's
<06547>

army
<02428>

was come forth
<03318> (8804)

out of Egypt
<04714>_:

and when the Chaldeans
<03778>

that besieged
<06696> (8802)

Jerusalem
<03389>

heard
<08085> (8799)

tidings
<08088>

of them, they departed
<05927> (8735)

from Jerusalem
<03389>_.

37:6

Then came the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

unto the prophet
<05030>

Jeremiah
<03414>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

37:7

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

the God
<0430>

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
<07725> (8804)

to Egypt
<04714>

into their own land
<0776>_.

37:8

And the Chaldeans
<03778>

shall come again
<07725> (8804)_,

and fight
<03898> (8738)

against this city
<05892>_,

and take
<03920> (8804)

it, and burn
<08313> (8804)

it with fire
<0784>_.

37:9

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_;

Deceive
<05377> (8686)

not yourselves
<05315>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The Chaldeans
<03778>

shall surely
<01980> (8800)

depart
<03212> (8799)

from us: for they shall not depart
<03212> (8799)_.

{yourselves: Heb. your souls}

37:10

For though ye had smitten
<05221> (8689)

the whole army
<02428>

of the Chaldeans
<03778>

that fight
<03898> (8737)

against you, and there remained
<07604> (8738)

[but] wounded
<01856> (8794)

men
<0582>

among them, [yet] should they rise up
<06965> (8799)

every man
<0376>

in his tent
<0168>_,

and burn
<08313> (8804)

this city
<05892>

with fire
<0784>_.

{wounded: Heb. thrust through}

37:11

And it came to pass, that when the army
<02428>

of the Chaldeans
<03778>

was broken up
<05927> (8736)

from Jerusalem
<03389>

for fear
<06440>

of Pharaoh's
<06547>

army
<02428>_,

{broken...: Heb. made to ascend}

37:12

Then Jeremiah
<03414>

went forth
<03318> (8799)

out of Jerusalem
<03389>

to go
<03212> (8800)

into the land
<0776>

of Benjamin
<01144>_,

to separate
<02505> (8687)

himself thence in the midst
<08432>

of the people
<05971>_.

{separate...: or, to slip away from thence in the midst of the people}

37:13

And when he was in the gate
<08179>

of Benjamin
<01144>_,

a captain
<01167>

of the ward
<06488>

[was] there, whose name
<08034>

[was] Irijah
<03376>_,

the son
<01121>

of Shelemiah
<08018>_,

the son
<01121>

of Hananiah
<02608>_;

and he took
<08610> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thou fallest away
<05307> (8802)

to the Chaldeans
<03778>_.

37:14

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>_,

[It is] false
<08267>_;

I fall not away
<05307> (8802)

to the Chaldeans
<03778>_.

But he hearkened
<08085> (8804)

not to him: so Irijah
<03376>

took
<08610> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>_,

and brought
<0935> (8686)

him to the princes
<08269>_.

{false: Heb. falsehood, or, a lie}

37:15

Wherefore the princes
<08269>

were wroth
<07107> (8799)

with Jeremiah
<03414>_,

and smote
<05221> (8689)

him, and put
<05414> (8804)

him in prison
<0612>

in the house
<01004>

of Jonathan
<03083>

the scribe
<05608> (8802)_:

for they had made
<06213> (8804)

that the prison
<03608>_.

37:16

When Jeremiah
<03414>

was entered
<0935> (8804)

into the dungeon
<01004> <0953>_,

and into the cabins
<02588>_,

and Jeremiah
<03414>

had remained
<03427> (8799)

there many
<07227>

days
<03117>_;

{cabins: or, cells}

37:17

Then Zedekiah
<06667>

the king
<04428>

sent
<07971> (8799)_,

and took him out
<03947> (8799)_:

and the king
<04428>

asked
<07592> (8799)

him secretly
<05643>

in his house
<01004>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Is there [any] word
<01697>

from the LORD
<03068>_?

And Jeremiah
<03414>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

There is
<03426>_:

for, said
<0559> (8799)

he, thou shalt be delivered
<05414> (8735)

into the hand
<03027>

of the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>_.

37:18

Moreover Jeremiah
<03414>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto king
<04428>

Zedekiah
<06667>_,

What have I offended
<02398> (8804)

against thee, or against thy servants
<05650>_,

or against this people
<05971>_,

that ye have put
<05414> (8804)

me in prison
<01004> <03608>_?

37:19

Where [are] now
<0346>

your prophets
<05030>

which prophesied
<05012> (8738)

unto you, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

shall not come
<0935> (8799)

against you, nor against this land
<0776>_?

37:20

Therefore hear
<08085> (8798)

now, I pray thee, O my lord
<0113>

the king
<04428>_:

let my supplication
<08467>_,

I pray thee, be accepted
<05307> (8799)

before
<06440>

thee; that thou cause me not to return
<07725> (8686)

to the house
<01004>

of Jonathan
<03083>

the scribe
<05608> (8802)_,

lest I die
<04191> (8799)

there. {let...: Heb. let my supplication fall}

37:21

Then Zedekiah
<06667>

the king
<04428>

commanded
<06680> (8762)

that they should commit
<06485> (8686)

Jeremiah
<03414>

into the court
<02691>

of the prison
<04307>_,

and that they should give
<05414> (8800)

him daily
<03117>

a piece
<03603>

of bread
<03899>

out of the bakers
<0644> (8802)_'

street
<02351>_,

until all the bread
<03899>

in the city
<05892>

were spent
<08552> (8800)_.

Thus Jeremiah
<03414>

remained
<03427> (8799)

in the court
<02691>

of the prison
<04307>_.

38:1

Then Shephatiah
<08203>

the son
<01121>

of Mattan
<04977>_,

and Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Pashur
<06583>_,

and Jucal
<03116>

the son
<01121>

of Shelemiah
<08018>_,

and Pashur
<06583>

the son
<01121>

of Malchiah
<04441>_,

heard
<08085> (8799)

the words
<01697>

that Jeremiah
<03414>

had spoken
<01696> (8764)

unto all the people
<05971>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

38:2

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

He that remaineth
<03427> (8802)

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)_.

38:3

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

This city
<05892>

shall surely
<05414> (8736)

be given
<05414> (8735)

into the hand
<03027>

of the king
<04428>

of Babylon's
<0894>

army
<02428>_,

which shall take
<03920> (8804)

it.

38:4

Therefore the princes
<08269>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto the king
<04428>_,

We beseech thee, let this man
<0376>

be put to death
<04191> (8714)_:

for thus
<03651>

he weakeneth
<07503> (8764)

the hands
<03027>

of the men
<0582>

of war
<04421>

that remain
<07604> (8737)

in this city
<05892>_,

and the hands
<03027>

of all the people
<05971>_,

in speaking
<01696> (8763)

such words
<01697>

unto them: for this man
<0376>

seeketh
<01875> (8802)

not the welfare
<07965>

of this people
<05971>_,

but the hurt
<07451>_.

{welfare: Heb. peace}

38:5

Then Zedekiah
<06667>

the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, he [is] in your hand
<03027>_:

for the king
<04428>

[is] not [he that] can
<03201> (8799)

do [any] thing
<01697>

against you.

38:6

Then took
<03947> (8799)

they Jeremiah
<03414>_,

and cast
<07993> (8686)

him into the dungeon
<0953>

of Malchiah
<04441>

the son
<01121>

of Hammelech
<04428>_,

that [was] in the court
<02691>

of the prison
<04307>_:

and they let down
<07971> (8762)

Jeremiah
<03414>

with cords
<02256>_.

And in the dungeon
<0953>

[there was] no water
<04325>_,

but mire
<02916>_:

so Jeremiah
<03414>

sunk
<02883> (8799)

in the mire
<02916>_.

{of Hammelech: or, of the king}

38:7

Now when Ebedmelech
<05663>

the Ethiopian
<03569>_,

one
<0376>

of the eunuchs
<05631>

which was in the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_,

heard
<08085> (8799)

that they had put
<05414> (8804)

Jeremiah
<03414>

in the dungeon
<0953>_;

the king
<04428>

then sitting
<03427> (8802)

in the gate
<08179>

of Benjamin
<01144>_;

38:8

Ebedmelech
<05663>

went forth
<03318> (8799)

out of the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_,

and spake
<01696> (8762)

to the king
<04428>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

38:9

My lord
<0113>

the king
<04428>_,

these men
<0582>

have done evil
<07489> (8689)

in all that they have done
<06213> (8804)

to Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>_,

whom they have cast
<07993> (8689)

into the dungeon
<0953>_;

and he is like to die
<04191> (8799)

for
<06440>

hunger
<07458>

in the place
<08478>

where he is: for [there is] no more bread
<03899>

in the city
<05892>_.

{he is like...: Heb. he will die}

38:10

Then the king
<04428>

commanded
<06680> (8762)

Ebedmelech
<05663>

the Ethiopian
<03569>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Take
<03947> (8798)

from hence thirty
<07970>

men
<0582>

with thee
<03027>_,

and take up
<05927> (8689)

Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>

out of the dungeon
<0953>_,

before he die
<04191> (8799)_.

{with thee: Heb. in thine hand}

38:11

So Ebedmelech
<05663>

took
<03947> (8799)

the men
<0582>

with him
<03027>_,

and went
<0935> (8799)

into the house
<01004>

of the king
<04428>

under the treasury
<0214>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

thence old
<01094>

cast clouts
<05499>

and old
<01094>

rotten rags
<04418>_,

and let them down
<07971> (8762)

by cords
<02256>

into the dungeon
<0953>

to Jeremiah
<03414>_.

38:12

And Ebedmelech
<05663>

the Ethiopian
<03569>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,

Put
<07760> (8798)

now [these] old
<01094>

cast clouts
<05499>

and rotten rags
<04418>

under thine armholes
<0679> <03027>

under the cords
<02256>_.

And Jeremiah
<03414>

did
<06213> (8799)

so.

38:13

So they drew up
<04900> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>

with cords
<02256>_,

and took him up
<05927> (8686)

out of the dungeon
<0953>_:

and Jeremiah
<03414>

remained
<03427> (8799)

in the court
<02691>

of the prison
<04307>_.

38:14

Then Zedekiah
<06667>

the king
<04428>

sent
<07971> (8799)_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>

unto him into the third
<07992>

entry
<03996>

that [is] in the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

and the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,

I will ask
<07592> (8802)

thee a thing
<01697>_;

hide
<03582> (8762)

nothing from me. {third: or, principal}

38:15

Then Jeremiah
<03414>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Zedekiah
<06667>_,

If I declare
<05046> (8686)

[it] unto thee, wilt thou not surely
<04191> (8687)

put me to death
<04191> (8686)_?

and if I give thee counsel
<03289> (8799)_,

wilt thou not hearken
<08085> (8799)

unto me?

38:16

So Zedekiah
<06667>

the king
<04428>

sware
<07650> (8735)

secretly
<05643>

unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

[As] the LORD
<03068>

liveth
<02416>_,

that made
<06213> (8804)

us this soul
<05315>_,

I will not put thee to death
<04191> (8686)_,

neither will I give
<05414> (8799)

thee into the hand
<03027>

of these men
<0582>

that seek
<01245> (8764)

thy life
<05315>_.

38:17

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>

unto Zedekiah
<06667>_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

the God
<0430>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

If thou wilt assuredly
<03318> (8800)

go forth
<03318> (8799)

unto the king
<04428>

of Babylon's
<0894>

princes
<08269>_,

then thy soul
<05315>

shall live
<02421> (8804)_,

and this city
<05892>

shall not be burned
<08313> (8735)

with fire
<0784>_;

and thou shalt live
<02421> (8804)_,

and thine house
<01004>_:

38:18

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

to the king
<04428>

of Babylon's
<0894>

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>_.

38:19

And Zedekiah
<06667>

the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,

I am afraid
<01672> (8802)

of the Jews
<03064>

that are fallen
<05307> (8804)

to the Chaldeans
<03778>_,

lest they deliver
<05414> (8799)

me into their hand
<03027>_,

and they mock
<05953> (8694)

me.

38:20

But Jeremiah
<03414>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

They shall not deliver
<05414> (8799)

[thee]. Obey
<08085> (8798)_,

I beseech thee, the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

which I speak
<01696> (8802)

unto thee: so it shall be well
<03190> (8799)

unto thee, and thy soul
<05315>

shall live
<02421> (8799)_.

38:21

But if thou refuse
<03986>

to go forth
<03318> (8800)_,

this [is] the word
<01697>

that the LORD
<03068>

hath shewed
<07200> (8689)

me:

38:22

And, behold, all the women
<0802>

that are left
<07604> (8738)

in the king
<04428>

of Judah's
<03063>

house
<01004>

[shall be] brought forth
<03318> (8716)

to the king
<04428>

of Babylon's
<0894>

princes
<08269>_,

and those [women] shall say
<0559> (8802)_,

Thy friends
<0582> <07965>

have set thee on
<05496> (8689)_,

and have prevailed
<03201> (8804)

against thee: thy feet
<07272>

are sunk
<02883> (8717)

in the mire
<01206>_,

[and] they are turned away
<05472> (8738)

back
<0268>_.

{Thy friends: Heb. Men of thy peace}

38:23

So they shall bring out
<03318> (8688)

all thy wives
<0802>

and thy children
<01121>

to the Chaldeans
<03778>_:

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

of their hand
<03027>_,

but shalt be taken
<08610> (8735)

by the hand
<03027>

of the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>_:

and thou shalt cause this city
<05892>

to be burned
<08313> (8799)

with fire
<0784>_.

{thou shalt cause...: Heb. thou shalt burn, etc}

38:24

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Zedekiah
<06667>

unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,

Let no man
<0376>

know
<03045> (8799)

of these words
<01697>_,

and thou shalt not die
<04191> (8799)_.

38:25

But if the princes
<08269>

hear
<08085> (8799)

that I have talked
<01696> (8765)

with thee, and they come
<0935> (8804)

unto thee, and say
<0559> (8804)

unto thee, Declare
<05046> (8685)

unto us now what thou hast said
<01696> (8765)

unto the king
<04428>_,

hide
<03582> (8762)

it not from us, and we will not put thee to death
<04191> (8686)_;

also what the king
<04428>

said
<01696> (8765)

unto thee:

38:26

Then thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)

unto them, I presented
<05307> (8688)

my supplication
<08467>

before
<06440>

the king
<04428>_,

that he would not cause me to return
<07725> (8687)

to Jonathan's
<03083>

house
<01004>_,

to die
<04191> (8800)

there.

38:27

Then came
<0935> (8799)

all the princes
<08269>

unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,

and asked
<07592> (8799)

him: and he told
<05046> (8686)

them according to all these words
<01697>

that the king
<04428>

had commanded
<06680> (8765)_.

So they left off speaking
<02790> (8686)

with him; for the matter
<01697>

was not perceived
<08085> (8738)_.

{they...: Heb. they were silent from him}

38:28

So Jeremiah
<03414>

abode
<03427> (8799)

in the court
<02691>

of the prison
<04307>

until the day
<03117>

that Jerusalem
<03389>

was taken
<03920> (8738)_:

and he was [there] when Jerusalem
<03389>

was taken
<03920> (8738)_.

39:1

In the ninth
<08671>

year
<08141>

of Zedekiah
<06667>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

in the tenth
<06224>

month
<02320>_,

came
<0935> (8804)

Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

and all his army
<02428>

against Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and they besieged
<06696> (8799)

it.

39:2

[And] in the eleventh
<06249> <06240>

year
<08141>

of Zedekiah
<06667>_,

in the fourth
<07243>

month
<02320>_,

the ninth
<08672>

[day] of the month
<02320>_,

the city
<05892>

was broken up
<01234> (8717)_.

39:3

And all the princes
<08269>

of the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

came in
<0935> (8799)_,

and sat
<03427> (8799)

in the middle
<08432>

gate
<08179>_,

[even] Nergalsharezer
<05371>_,

Samgarnebo
<05562>_,

Sarsechim
<08310>_,

Rabsaris
<07249>_,

Nergalsharezer
<05371>_,

Rabmag
<07248>_,

with all the residue
<07611>

of the princes
<08269>

of the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>_.

39:4

And it came to pass, [that] when Zedekiah
<06667>

the king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

saw
<07200> (8804)

them, and all the men
<0582>

of war
<04421>_,

then they fled
<01272> (8799)_,

and went forth
<03318> (8799)

out of the city
<05892>

by night
<03915>_,

by the way
<01870>

of the king's
<04428>

garden
<01588>_,

by the gate
<08179>

betwixt the two walls
<02346>_:

and he went out
<03318> (8799)

the way
<01870>

of the plain
<06160>_.

39:5

But the Chaldeans
<03778>_'

army
<02428>

pursued
<07291> (8799)

after
<0310>

them, and overtook
<05381> (8686)

Zedekiah
<06667>

in the plains
<06160>

of Jericho
<03405>_:

and when they had taken
<03947> (8799)

him, they brought him up
<05927> (8686)

to Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

to Riblah
<07247>

in the land
<0776>

of Hamath
<02574>_,

where he gave
<01696> (8762)

judgment
<04941>

upon him. {gave...: Heb. spake with him judgments}

39:6

Then the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

slew
<07819> (8799)

the sons
<01121>

of Zedekiah
<06667>

in Riblah
<07247>

before his eyes
<05869>_:

also the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

slew
<07819> (8804)

all the nobles
<02715>

of Judah
<03063>_.

39:7

Moreover he put out
<05786> (8765)

Zedekiah's
<06667>

eyes
<05869>_,

and bound
<0631> (8799)

him with chains
<05178>_,

to carry
<0935> (8687)

him to Babylon
<0894>_.

{with...: Heb. with two brasen chains, or, fetters}

39:8

And the Chaldeans
<03778>

burned
<08313> (8804)

the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_,

and the houses
<01004>

of the people
<05971>_,

with fire
<0784>_,

and brake down
<05422> (8804)

the walls
<02346>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_.

39:9

Then Nebuzaradan
<05018>

the captain
<07227>

of the guard
<02876>

carried away captive
<01540> (8689)

into Babylon
<0894>

the remnant
<03499>

of the people
<05971>

that remained
<07604> (8737)

in the city
<05892>_,

and those that fell away
<05307> (8802)_,

that fell
<05307> (8804)

to him, with the rest
<03499>

of the people
<05971>

that remained
<07604> (8737)_.

{captain...: or, chief marshal: Heb. chief of the executioners, or, slaughtermen}

39:10

But Nebuzaradan
<05018>

the captain
<07227>

of the guard
<02876>

left
<07604> (8689)

of the poor
<01800>

of the people
<05971>_,

which had nothing
<03972>_,

in the land
<0776>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

them vineyards
<03754>

and fields
<03010>

at the same time
<03117>_.

{captain...: or, chief marshal: Heb. chief of the executioners, or, slaughtermen} {at the...: Heb. in that day}

39:11

Now Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

gave charge
<06680> (8762)

concerning Jeremiah
<03414>

to
<03027>

Nebuzaradan
<05018>

the captain
<07227>

of the guard
<02876>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

{to: Heb. by the hand of} {captain...: or, chief marshal: Heb. chief of the executioners, or, slaughtermen}

39:12

Take
<03947> (8798)

him, and look well
<05869> <07760> (8798)

to him, and do
<06213> (8799)

him no harm
<03972> <07451>_;

but do
<06213> (8798)

unto him even as he shall say
<01696> (8762)

unto thee. {look...: Heb. set thine eyes upon him}

39:13

So Nebuzaradan
<05018>

the captain
<07227>

of the guard
<02876>

sent
<07971> (8799)_,

and Nebushasban
<05021>_,

Rabsaris
<07249>_,

and Nergalsharezer
<05371>_,

Rabmag
<07248>_,

and all the king
<04428>

of Babylon's
<0894>

princes
<07227>_;

{captain...: or, chief marshal: Heb. chief of the executioners, or, slaughtermen}

39:14

Even they sent
<07971> (8799)_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>

out of the court
<02691>

of the prison
<04307>_,

and committed
<05414> (8799)

him unto Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>

the son
<01121>

of Shaphan
<08227>_,

that he should carry
<03318> (8687)

him home
<01004>_:

so he dwelt
<03427> (8799)

among
<08432>

the people
<05971>_.

39:15

Now the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

came unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,

while he was shut up
<06113> (8803)

in the court
<02691>

of the prison
<04307>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

39:16

Go
<01980> (8800)

and speak
<0559> (8804)

to Ebedmelech
<05663>

the Ethiopian
<03569>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)

my words
<01697>

upon this city
<05892>

for evil
<07451>_,

and not for good
<02896>_;

and they shall be [accomplished] in that day
<03117>

before
<06440>

thee.

39:17

But I will deliver
<05337> (8689)

thee in that day
<03117>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_:

and thou shalt not be given
<05414> (8735)

into the hand
<03027>

of the men
<0582>

of whom
<06440>

thou [art] afraid
<03016> (8801)_.

39:18

For I will surely
<04422> (8763)

deliver
<04422> (8762)

thee, and thou shalt not fall
<05307> (8799)

by the sword
<02719>_,

but thy life
<05315>

shall be for a prey
<07998>

unto thee: because thou hast put thy trust
<0982> (8804)

in me, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

40:1

The word
<01697>

that came to Jeremiah
<03414>

from the LORD
<03068>_,

after
<0310>

that Nebuzaradan
<05018>

the captain
<07227>

of the guard
<02876>

had let him go
<07971> (8763)

from Ramah
<07414>_,

when he had taken
<03947> (8800)

him being bound
<0631> (8803)

in chains
<0246>

among
<08432>

all that were carried away captive
<01546>

of Jerusalem
<03389>

and Judah
<03063>_,

which were carried away captive
<01540> (8716)

unto Babylon
<0894>_.

{chains: or, manicles}

40:2

And the captain
<07227>

of the guard
<02876>

took
<03947> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, The LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

hath pronounced
<01696> (8765)

this evil
<07451>

upon this place
<04725>_.

40:3

Now the LORD
<03068>

hath brought
<0935> (8686)

[it], and done
<06213> (8799)

according as he hath said
<01696> (8765)_:

because ye have sinned
<02398> (8804)

against the LORD
<03068>_,

and have not obeyed
<08085> (8804)

his voice
<06963>_,

therefore this thing
<01697>

is come upon you.

40:4

And now, behold, I loose
<06605> (8765)

thee this day
<03117>

from the chains
<0246>

which [were] upon thine hand
<03027>_.

If it seem good
<02896> <05869>

unto thee to come
<0935> (8800)

with me into Babylon
<0894>_,

come
<0935> (8798)_;

and I will look well
<07760> (8799) <05869>

unto thee: but if it seem ill
<07489> (8804) <05869>

unto thee to come
<0935> (8800)

with me into Babylon
<0894>_,

forbear
<02308> (8798)_:

behold
<07200> (8798)_,

all the land
<0776>

[is] before
<06440>

thee: whither it seemeth
<0413>

good
<02896>

and convenient
<03477> <05869>

for thee to go
<03212> (8800)_,

thither go
<03212> (8798)_.

{were...: or, are upon thine hand} {I will...: Heb. I will set mine eye upon thee}

40:5

Now while he was not yet gone back
<07725> (8799)_,

[he said], Go back
<07725> (8798)

also to Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>

the son
<01121>

of Shaphan
<08227>_,

whom the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

hath made governor
<06485> (8689)

over the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and dwell
<03427> (8798)

with him among
<08432>

the people
<05971>_:

or go
<03212> (8798)

wheresoever it seemeth convenient
<03477> <05869>

unto thee to go
<03212> (8800)_.

So the captain
<07227>

of the guard
<02876>

gave
<05414> (8799)

him victuals
<0737>

and a reward
<04864>_,

and let him go
<07971> (8762)_.

40:6

Then went
<0935> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>

unto Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>

to Mizpah
<04708>_;

and dwelt
<03427> (8799)

with him among
<08432>

the people
<05971>

that were left
<07604> (8737)

in the land
<0776>_.

40:7

Now when all the captains
<08269>

of the forces
<02428>

which [were] in the fields
<07704>_,

[even] they and their men
<0582>_,

heard
<08085> (8799)

that the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

had made Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>

governor
<06485> (8689)

in the land
<0776>_,

and had committed
<06485> (8689)

unto him men
<0582>_,

and women
<0802>_,

and children
<02945>_,

and of the poor
<01803>

of the land
<0776>_,

of them that were not carried away captive
<01540> (8717)

to Babylon
<0894>_;

40:8

Then they came
<0935> (8799)

to Gedaliah
<01436>

to Mizpah
<04708>_,

even Ishmael
<03458>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>_,

and Johanan
<03110>

and Jonathan
<03129>

the sons
<01121>

of Kareah
<07143>_,

and Seraiah
<08304>

the son
<01121>

of Tanhumeth
<08576>_,

and the sons
<01121>

of Ephai
<05778>

the Netophathite
<05200>_,

and Jezaniah
<03153>

the son
<01121>

of a Maachathite
<04602>_,

they and their men
<0582>_.

40:9

And Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>

the son
<01121>

of Shaphan
<08227>

sware
<07650> (8735)

unto them and to their men
<0582>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Fear
<03372> (8799)

not to serve
<05647> (8800)

the Chaldeans
<03778>_:

dwell in
<03427> (8798)

the land
<0776>_,

and serve
<05647> (8798)

the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>_,

and it shall be well
<03190> (8799)

with you.

40:10

As for me, behold, I will dwell
<03427> (8802)

at Mizpah
<04709>

to serve
<05975> (8800) <06440>

the Chaldeans
<03778>_,

which will come
<0935> (8799)

unto us: but ye, gather
<0622> (8798)

ye wine
<03196>_,

and summer fruits
<07019>_,

and oil
<08081>_,

and put
<07760> (8798)

[them] in your vessels
<03627>_,

and dwell
<03427> (8798)

in your cities
<05892>

that ye have taken
<08610> (8804)_.

{to serve: Heb. to stand before}

40:11

Likewise when all the Jews
<03064>

that [were] in Moab
<04124>_,

and among the Ammonites
<05983>_,

and in Edom
<0123>_,

and that [were] in all the countries
<0776>_,

heard
<08085> (8804)

that the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

had left
<05414> (8804)

a remnant
<07611>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and that he had set
<06485> (8689)

over them Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>

the son
<01121>

of Shaphan
<08227>_;

40:12

Even all the Jews
<03064>

returned out
<07725> (8799)

of all places
<04725>

whither they were driven
<05080> (8738)_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

to the land
<0776>

of Judah
<03063>_,

to Gedaliah
<01436>_,

unto Mizpah
<04708>_,

and gathered
<0622> (8799)

wine
<03196>

and summer fruits
<07019>

very
<03966>

much
<07235> (8687)_.

40:13

Moreover Johanan
<03110>

the son
<01121>

of Kareah
<07143>_,

and all the captains
<08269>

of the forces
<02428>

that [were] in the fields
<07704>_,

came
<0935> (8804)

to Gedaliah
<01436>

to Mizpah
<04708>_,

40:14

And said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Dost thou certainly
<03045> (8800)

know
<03045> (8799)

that Baalis
<01185>

the king
<04428>

of the Ammonites
<01121> <05983>

hath sent
<07971> (8804)

Ishmael
<03458>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>

to slay
<05221> (8687) <05315>

thee? But Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>

believed
<0539> (8689)

them not. {to slay...: Heb. to strike thee in soul?}

40:15

Then Johanan
<03110>

the son
<01121>

of Kareah
<07143>

spake
<0559> (8804)

to Gedaliah
<01436>

in Mizpah
<04709>

secretly
<05643>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Let me go
<03212> (8799)_,

I pray thee, and I will slay
<05221> (8686)

Ishmael
<03458>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>_,

and no man
<0376>

shall know
<03045> (8799)

[it]: wherefore should he slay
<05221> (8686) <05315>

thee, that all the Jews
<03064>

which are gathered
<06908> (8737)

unto thee should be scattered
<06327> (8738)_,

and the remnant
<07611>

in Judah
<03063>

perish
<06> (8804)_?

40:16

But Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Johanan
<03110>

the son
<01121>

of Kareah
<07143>_,

Thou shalt not do
<06213> (8799)

this thing
<01697>_:

for thou speakest
<01696> (8802)

falsely
<08267>

of Ishmael
<03458>_.

41:1

Now it came to pass in the seventh
<07637>

month
<02320>_,

[that] Ishmael
<03458>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>

the son
<01121>

of Elishama
<0476>_,

of the seed
<02233>

royal
<04410>_,

and the princes
<07227>

of the king
<04428>_,

even ten
<06235>

men
<0582>

with him, came
<0935> (8804)

unto Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>

to Mizpah
<04709>_;

and there they did eat
<0398> (8799)

bread
<03899>

together
<03162>

in Mizpah
<04708>_.

41:2

Then arose
<06965> (8799)

Ishmael
<03458>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>_,

and the ten
<06235>

men
<0582>

that were with him, and smote
<05221> (8686)

Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>

the son
<01121>

of Shaphan
<08227>

with the sword
<02719>_,

and slew
<04191> (8686)

him, whom the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

had made governor
<06485> (8689)

over the land
<0776>_.

41:3

Ishmael
<03458>

also slew
<05221> (8689)

all the Jews
<03064>

that were with him, [even] with Gedaliah
<01436>_,

at Mizpah
<04709>_,

and the Chaldeans
<03778>

that were found
<04672> (8738)

there, [and] the men
<0582>

of war
<04421>_.

41:4

And it came to pass the second
<08145>

day
<03117>

after he had slain
<04191> (8687)

Gedaliah
<01436>_,

and no man
<0376>

knew
<03045> (8804)

[it],

41:5

That there came
<0935> (8799)

certain
<0582>

from Shechem
<07927>_,

from Shiloh
<07887>_,

and from Samaria
<08111>_,

[even] fourscore
<08084>

men
<0376>_,

having their beards
<02206>

shaven
<01548> (8794)_,

and their clothes
<0899>

rent
<07167> (8803)_,

and having cut
<01413> (8706)

themselves, with offerings
<04503>

and incense
<03828>

in their hand
<03027>_,

to bring
<0935> (8687)

[them] to the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

41:6

And Ishmael
<03458>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>

went forth
<03318> (8799)

from Mizpah
<04709>

to meet
<07125> (8800)

them, weeping
<01058> (8802)

all along
<01980> (8800)

as he went
<01980> (8802)_:

and it came to pass, as he met
<06298> (8800)

them, he said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Come
<0935> (8798)

to Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>_.

{weeping...: Heb. in going and weeping}

41:7

And it was [so], when they came
<0935> (8800)

into the midst
<08432>

of the city
<05892>_,

that Ishmael
<03458>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>

slew
<07819> (8799)

them, [and cast them] into the midst
<08432>

of the pit
<0953>_,

he, and the men
<0582>

that [were] with him.

41:8

But ten
<06235>

men
<0582>

were found
<04672> (8738)

among them that said
<0559> (8799)

unto Ishmael
<03458>_,

Slay
<04191> (8686)

us not: for we have
<03426>

treasures
<04301>

in the field
<07704>_,

of wheat
<02406>_,

and of barley
<08184>_,

and of oil
<08081>_,

and of honey
<01706>_.

So he forbare
<02308> (8799)_,

and slew
<04191> (8689)

them not among
<08432>

their brethren
<0251>_.

41:9

Now the pit
<0953>

wherein Ishmael
<03458>

had cast
<07993> (8689)

all the dead bodies
<06297>

of the men
<0582>_,

whom he had slain
<05221> (8689)

because
<03027>

of Gedaliah
<01436>_,

[was] it which Asa
<0609>

the king
<04428>

had made
<06213> (8804)

for fear
<06440>

of Baasha
<01201>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_:

[and] Ishmael
<03458>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>

filled
<04390> (8765)

it with [them that were] slain
<02491>_.

{because...: or, near Gedaliah: Heb. by the hand, or, by the side of Gedaliah}

41:10

Then Ishmael
<03458>

carried away captive
<07617> (8799)

all the residue
<07611>

of the people
<05971>

that [were] in Mizpah
<04709>_,

[even] the king's
<04428>

daughters
<01323>_,

and all the people
<05971>

that remained
<07604> (8737)

in Mizpah
<04709>_,

whom Nebuzaradan
<05018>

the captain
<07227>

of the guard
<02876>

had committed
<06485> (8689)

to Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>_:

and Ishmael
<03458>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>

carried them away captive
<07617> (8799)_,

and departed
<03212> (8799)

to go over
<05674> (8800)

to the Ammonites
<01121> <05983>_.

41:11

But when Johanan
<03110>

the son
<01121>

of Kareah
<07143>_,

and all the captains
<08269>

of the forces
<02428>

that [were] with him, heard
<08085> (8799)

of all the evil
<07451>

that Ishmael
<03458>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>

had done
<06213> (8804)_,

41:12

Then they took
<03947> (8799)

all the men
<0582>_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

to fight
<03898> (8736)

with Ishmael
<03458>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>_,

and found
<04672> (8799)

him by the great
<07227>

waters
<04325>

that [are] in Gibeon
<01391>_.

41:13

Now it came to pass, [that] when all the people
<05971>

which [were] with Ishmael
<03458>

saw
<07200> (8800)

Johanan
<03110>

the son
<01121>

of Kareah
<07143>_,

and all the captains
<08269>

of the forces
<02428>

that [were] with him, then they were glad
<08055> (8799)_.

41:14

So all the people
<05971>

that Ishmael
<03458>

had carried away captive
<07617> (8804)

from Mizpah
<04709>

cast about
<05437> (8799)

and returned
<07725> (8799)_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

unto Johanan
<03110>

the son
<01121>

of Kareah
<07143>_.

41:15

But Ishmael
<03458>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>

escaped
<04422> (8738)

from
<06440>

Johanan
<03110>

with eight
<08083>

men
<0582>_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

to the Ammonites
<01121> <05983>_.

41:16

Then took
<03947> (8799)

Johanan
<03110>

the son
<01121>

of Kareah
<07143>_,

and all the captains
<08269>

of the forces
<02428>

that [were] with him, all the remnant
<07611>

of the people
<05971>

whom he had recovered
<07725> (8689)

from Ishmael
<03458>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>_,

from Mizpah
<04709>_,

after
<0310>

[that] he had slain
<05221> (8689)

Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>_,

[even] mighty
<01397>

men
<0582>

of war
<04421>_,

and the women
<0802>_,

and the children
<02945>_,

and the eunuchs
<05631>_,

whom he had brought again
<07725> (8689)

from Gibeon
<01391>_:

41:17

And they departed
<03212> (8799)_,

and dwelt in
<03427> (8799)

the habitation
<01628>

of Chimham
<03643>_,

which is by
<0681>

Bethlehem
<01035>_,

to go
<03212> (8800)

to enter
<0935> (8800)

into Egypt
<04714>_,

41:18

Because
<06440>

of the Chaldeans
<03778>_:

for they were afraid
<03372> (8804)

of them, because Ishmael
<03458>

the son
<01121>

of Nethaniah
<05418>

had slain
<05221> (8689)

Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>_,

whom the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

made governor
<06485> (8689)

in the land
<0776>_.

42:1

Then all the captains
<08269>

of the forces
<02428>_,

and Johanan
<03110>

the son
<01121>

of Kareah
<07143>_,

and Jezaniah
<03153>

the son
<01121>

of Hoshaiah
<01955>_,

and all the people
<05971>

from the least
<06996>

even unto the greatest
<01419>_,

came near
<05066> (8799)_,

42:2

And said
<0559> (8799)

unto Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>_,

Let, we beseech thee, our supplication
<08467>

be accepted
<05307> (8799)

before
<06440>

thee, and pray
<06419> (8690)

for us unto the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

[even] for all this remnant
<07611>_;

(for we are left
<07604> (8738)

[but] a few
<04592>

of many
<07235> (8687)_,

as thine eyes
<05869>

do behold
<07200> (8802)

us:) {Let...: or, Let our supplication fall before thee}

42:3

That the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

may shew
<05046> (8686)

us the way
<01870>

wherein we may walk
<03212> (8799)_,

and the thing
<01697>

that we may do
<06213> (8799)_.

42:4

Then Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, I have heard
<08085> (8804)

[you]; behold, I will pray
<06419> (8693)

unto the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>

according to your words
<01697>_;

and it shall come to pass, [that] whatsoever thing
<01697>

the LORD
<03068>

shall answer
<06030> (8799)

you, I will declare
<05046> (8686)

[it] unto you; I will keep
<04513> (0)

nothing
<01697>

back
<04513> (8799)

from you.

42:5

Then they said
<0559> (8804)

to Jeremiah
<03414>_,

The LORD
<03068>

be a true
<0571>

and faithful
<0539> (8737)

witness
<05707>

between us, if we do
<06213> (8799)

not even according to all things
<01697>

for the which the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

shall send
<07971> (8799)

thee to us.

42:6

Whether [it be] good
<02896>_,

or whether [it be] evil
<07451>_,

we will obey
<08085> (8799)

the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_,

to whom we
<0580>

send
<07971> (8802)

thee; that it may be well
<03190> (8799)

with us, when we obey
<08085> (8799)

the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_.

42:7

And it came to pass after
<07093>

ten
<06235>

days
<03117>_,

that the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

came unto Jeremiah
<03414>_.

42:8

Then called
<07121> (8799)

he Johanan
<03110>

the son
<01121>

of Kareah
<07143>_,

and all the captains
<08269>

of the forces
<02428>

which [were] with him, and all the people
<05971>

from the least
<06996>

even to the greatest
<01419>_,

42:9

And said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

unto whom ye sent
<07971> (8804)

me to present
<05307> (8687)

your supplication
<08467>

before
<06440>

him;

42:10

If ye will still
<07725> (8800)

abide
<03427> (8799)

in this land
<0776>_,

then will I build
<01129> (8804)

you, and not pull [you] down
<02040> (8799)_,

and I will plant
<05193> (8804)

you, and not pluck [you] up
<05428> (8799)_:

for I repent
<05162> (8738)

me of the evil
<07451>

that I have done
<06213> (8804)

unto you.

42:11

Be not afraid
<03372> (8799)

of
<06440>

the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>_,

of whom
<06440>

ye are afraid
<03373>_;

be not afraid
<03372> (8799)

of him, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_:

for I [am] with you to save
<03467> (8687)

you, and to deliver
<05337> (8687)

you from his hand
<03027>_.

42:12

And I will shew
<05414> (8799)

mercies
<07356>

unto you, that he may have mercy
<07355> (8765)

upon you, and cause you to return
<07725> (8689)

to your own land
<0127>_.

42:13

But if ye say
<0559> (8802)_,

We will not dwell
<03427> (8799)

in this land
<0776>_,

neither obey
<08085> (8800)

the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_,

42:14

Saying
<0559> (8800)_,

No; but we will go
<0935> (8799)

into the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

where we shall see
<07200> (8799)

no war
<04421>_,

nor hear
<08085> (8799)

the sound
<06963>

of the trumpet
<07782>_,

nor have hunger
<07456> (8799)

of bread
<03899>_;

and there will we dwell
<03427> (8799)_:

42:15

And now therefore hear
<08085> (8798)

the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

ye remnant
<07611>

of Judah
<03063>_;

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

If ye wholly
<07760> (8800)

set
<07760> (8799)

your faces
<06440>

to enter
<0935> (8800)

into Egypt
<04714>_,

and go
<0935> (8804)

to sojourn
<01481> (8800)

there;

42:16

Then it shall come to pass, [that] the sword
<02719>_,

which ye feared
<03373>_,

shall overtake
<05381> (8686)

you there in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

and the famine
<07458>_,

whereof ye were afraid
<01672> (8802)_,

shall follow close
<01692> (8799)

after
<0310>

you there in Egypt
<04714>_;

and there ye shall die
<04191> (8799)_.

{shall follow...: Heb. shall cleave after you}

42:17

So shall it be with all the men
<0582>

that set
<07760> (8804)

their faces
<06440>

to go
<0935> (8800)

into Egypt
<04714>

to sojourn
<01481> (8800)

there; they shall die
<04191> (8799)

by the sword
<02719>_,

by the famine
<07458>_,

and by the pestilence
<01698>_:

and none of them shall remain
<08300>

or escape
<06412>

from
<06440>

the evil
<07451>

that I will bring
<0935> (8688)

upon them. {So...: Heb. So shall all the men be}

42:18

For thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

As mine anger
<0639>

and my fury
<02534>

hath been poured forth
<05413> (8738)

upon the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of Jerusalem
<03389>_;

so shall my fury
<02534>

be poured forth
<05413> (8799)

upon you, when ye shall enter
<0935> (8800)

into Egypt
<04714>_:

and ye shall be an execration
<0423>_,

and an astonishment
<08047>_,

and a curse
<07045>_,

and a reproach
<02781>_;

and ye shall see
<07200> (8799)

this place
<04725>

no more.

42:19

The LORD
<03068>

hath said
<01696> (8765)

concerning you, O ye remnant
<07611>

of Judah
<03063>_;

Go
<0935> (8799)

ye not into Egypt
<04714>_:

know
<03045> (8799)

certainly
<03045> (8800)

that I have admonished
<05749> (8689)

you this day
<03117>_.

{admonished...: Heb. testified against you}

42:20

For ye dissembled
<08582> (8689)

in your hearts
<05315>_,

when ye sent
<07971> (8804)

me unto the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Pray
<06419> (8690)

for us unto the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_;

and according unto all that the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>

shall say
<0559> (8799)_,

so declare
<05046> (8685)

unto us, and we will do
<06213> (8804)

[it]. {ye dissembled...: or, ye have used deceit against your souls}

42:21

And [now] I have this day
<03117>

declared
<05046> (8686)

[it] to you; but ye have not obeyed
<08085> (8804)

the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_,

nor any [thing] for the which he hath sent
<07971> (8804)

me unto you.

42:22

Now therefore know
<03045> (8799)

certainly
<03045> (8800)

that ye shall die
<04191> (8799)

by the sword
<02719>_,

by the famine
<07458>_,

and by the pestilence
<01698>_,

in the place
<04725>

whither ye desire
<02654> (8804)

to go
<0935> (8800)

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

{to go...: or, to go to sojourn}

43:1

And it came to pass, [that] when Jeremiah
<03414>

had made an end
<03615> (8763)

of speaking
<01696> (8763)

unto all the people
<05971>

all the words
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

their God
<0430>_,

for which the LORD
<03068>

their God
<0430>

had sent
<07971> (8804)

him to them, [even] all these words
<01697>_,

43:2

Then spake
<0559> (8799)

Azariah
<05838>

the son
<01121>

of Hoshaiah
<01955>_,

and Johanan
<03110>

the son
<01121>

of Kareah
<07143>_,

and all the proud
<02086>

men
<0582>_,

saying
<0559> (8802)

unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,

Thou speakest
<01696> (8764)

falsely
<08267>_:

the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>

hath not sent
<07971> (8804)

thee to say
<0559> (8800)_,

Go
<0935> (8799)

not into Egypt
<04714>

to sojourn
<01481> (8800)

there:

43:3

But Baruch
<01263>

the son
<01121>

of Neriah
<05374>

setteth thee on
<05496> (8688)

against us, for to
<04616>

deliver
<05414> (8800)

us into the hand
<03027>

of the Chaldeans
<03778>_,

that they might put us to death
<04191> (8687)_,

and carry us away captives
<01540> (8687)

into Babylon
<0894>_.

43:4

So Johanan
<03110>

the son
<01121>

of Kareah
<07143>_,

and all the captains
<08269>

of the forces
<02428>_,

and all the people
<05971>_,

obeyed
<08085> (8804)

not the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

to dwell
<03427> (8800)

in the land
<0776>

of Judah
<03063>_.

43:5

But Johanan
<03110>

the son
<01121>

of Kareah
<07143>_,

and all the captains
<08269>

of the forces
<02428>_,

took
<03947> (8799)

all the remnant
<07611>

of Judah
<03063>_,

that were returned
<07725> (8804)

from all nations
<01471>_,

whither they had been driven
<05080> (8738)_,

to dwell
<01481> (8800)

in the land
<0776>

of Judah
<03063>_;

43:6

[Even] men
<01397>_,

and women
<0802>_,

and children
<02945>_,

and the king's
<04428>

daughters
<01323>_,

and every person
<05315>

that Nebuzaradan
<05018>

the captain
<07227>

of the guard
<02876>

had left
<03240> (8689)

with Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>

the son
<01121>

of Shaphan
<08227>_,

and Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>_,

and Baruch
<01263>

the son
<01121>

of Neriah
<05374>_.

43:7

So they came
<0935> (8799)

into the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_:

for they obeyed
<08085> (8804)

not the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

thus came
<0935> (8799)

they [even] to Tahpanhes
<08471>_.

43:8

Then came the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

unto Jeremiah
<03414>

in Tahpanhes
<08471>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

43:9

Take
<03947> (8798)

great
<01419>

stones
<068>

in thine hand
<03027>_,

and hide
<02934> (8804)

them in the clay
<04423>

in the brickkiln
<04404>_,

which [is] at the entry
<06607>

of Pharaoh's
<06547>

house
<01004>

in Tahpanhes
<08471>_,

in the sight
<05869>

of the men
<0582>

of Judah
<03064>_;

43:10

And say
<0559> (8804)

unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Behold, I will send
<07971> (8802)

and take
<03947> (8804)

Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>_,

my servant
<05650>_,

and will set
<07760> (8804)

his throne
<03678>

upon
<04605>

these stones
<068>

that I have hid
<02934> (8804)_;

and he shall spread
<05186> (8804)

his royal pavilion
<08237>

over them.

43:11

And when he cometh
<0935> (8804)_,

he shall smite
<05221> (8689)

the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

[and deliver] such [as are] for death
<04194>

to death
<04194>_;

and such [as are] for captivity
<07628>

to captivity
<07628>_;

and such [as are] for the sword
<02719>

to the sword
<02719>_.

43:12

And I will kindle
<03341> (8689)

a fire
<0784>

in the houses
<01004>

of the gods
<0430>

of Egypt
<04714>_;

and he shall burn
<08313> (8804)

them, and carry them away captives
<07617> (8804)_:

and he shall array
<05844> (8804)

himself with the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

as a shepherd
<07462> (8802)

putteth on
<05844> (8799)

his garment
<0899>_;

and he shall go forth
<03318> (8804)

from thence in peace
<07965>_.

43:13

He shall break
<07665> (8765)

also the images
<04676>

of Bethshemesh
<01053>_,

that [is] in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_;

and the houses
<01004>

of the gods
<0430>

of the Egyptians
<04714>

shall he burn
<08313> (8799)

with fire
<0784>_.

{images: Heb. statues, or, standing images} {Bethshemesh: or, The house of the sun}

44:1

The word
<01697>

that came to Jeremiah
<03414>

concerning all the Jews
<03064>

which dwell
<03427> (8802)

in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

which dwell
<03427> (8802)

at Migdol
<04024>_,

and at Tahpanhes
<08471>_,

and at Noph
<05297>_,

and in the country
<0776>

of Pathros
<06624>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

44:2

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Ye have seen
<07200> (8804)

all the evil
<07451>

that I have brought
<0935> (8689)

upon Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and upon all the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>_;

and, behold, this day
<03117>

they [are] a desolation
<02723>_,

and no man dwelleth
<03427> (8802)

therein,

44:3

Because
<06440>

of their wickedness
<07451>

which they have committed
<06213> (8804)

to provoke me to anger
<03707> (8687)_,

in that they went
<03212> (8800)

to burn incense
<06999> (8763)_,

[and] to serve
<05647> (8800)

other
<0312>

gods
<0430>_,

whom they knew
<03045> (8804)

not, [neither] they, ye, nor your fathers
<01>_.

44:4

Howbeit I sent
<07971> (8799)

unto you all my servants
<05650>

the prophets
<05030>_,

rising early
<07925> (8687)

and sending
<07971> (8800)

[them], saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Oh, do
<06213> (8799)

not this abominable
<08441>

thing
<01697>

that I hate
<08130> (8804)_.

44:5

But they hearkened
<08085> (8804)

not, nor inclined
<05186> (8689)

their ear
<0241>

to turn
<07725> (8800)

from their wickedness
<07451>_,

to burn no incense
<06999> (8763)

unto other
<0312>

gods
<0430>_.

44:6

Wherefore my fury
<02534>

and mine anger
<0639>

was poured forth
<05413> (8799)_,

and was kindled
<01197> (8799)

in the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>

and in the streets
<02351>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_;

and they are wasted
<02723>

[and] desolate
<08077>_,

as at this day
<03117>_.

44:7

Therefore now thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

the God
<0430>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Wherefore commit
<06213> (8802)

ye [this] great
<01419>

evil
<07451>

against your souls
<05315>_,

to cut off
<03772> (8687)

from you man
<0376>

and woman
<0802>_,

child
<05768>

and suckling
<03243> (8802)_,

out
<08432>

of Judah
<03063>_,

to leave
<03498> (8687)

you none to remain
<07611>_;

{out...: Heb. out of the midst of Judah}

44:8

In that ye provoke me unto wrath
<03707> (8687)

with the works
<04639>

of your hands
<03027>_,

burning incense
<06999> (8763)

unto other
<0312>

gods
<0430>

in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

whither ye be gone
<0935> (8802)

to dwell
<01481> (8800)_,

that ye might cut yourselves off
<03772> (8687)_,

and that ye might be a curse
<07045>

and a reproach
<02781>

among all the nations
<01471>

of the earth
<0776>_?

44:9

Have ye forgotten
<07911> (8804)

the wickedness
<07451>

of your fathers
<01>_,

and the wickedness
<07451>

of the kings
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and the wickedness
<07451>

of their wives
<0802>_,

and your own wickedness
<07451>_,

and the wickedness
<07451>

of your wives
<0802>_,

which they have committed
<06213> (8804)

in the land
<0776>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and in the streets
<02351>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_?

{wickedness...: Heb. wickednesses, or, punishments, etc}

44:10

They are not humbled
<01792> (8795)

[even] unto this day
<03117>_,

neither have they feared
<03372> (8804)_,

nor walked
<01980> (8804)

in my law
<08451>_,

nor in my statutes
<02708>_,

that I set
<05414> (8804)

before
<06440>

you and before
<06440>

your fathers
<01>_.

{humbled: Heb. contrite}

44:11

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Behold, I will set
<07760> (8802)

my face
<06440>

against you for evil
<07451>_,

and to cut off
<03772> (8687)

all Judah
<03063>_.

44:12

And I will take
<03947> (8804)

the remnant
<07611>

of Judah
<03063>_,

that have set
<07760> (8804)

their faces
<06440>

to go
<0935> (8800)

into the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

to sojourn
<01481> (8800)

there, and they shall all be consumed
<08552> (8804)_,

[and] fall
<05307> (8799)

in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_;

they shall [even] be consumed
<08552> (8735)

by the sword
<02719>

[and] by the famine
<07458>_:

they shall die
<04191> (8799)_,

from the least
<06996>

even unto the greatest
<01419>_,

by the sword
<02719>

and by the famine
<07458>_:

and they shall be an execration
<0423>_,

[and] an astonishment
<08047>_,

and a curse
<07045>_,

and a reproach
<02781>_.

44:13

For I will punish
<06485> (8804)

them that dwell
<03427> (8802)

in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

as I have punished
<06485> (8804)

Jerusalem
<03389>_,

by the sword
<02719>_,

by the famine
<07458>_,

and by the pestilence
<01698>_:

44:14

So that none of the remnant
<07611>

of Judah
<03063>_,

which are gone
<0935> (8802)

into the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

to sojourn
<01481> (8800)

there, shall escape
<06412>

or remain
<08300>_,

that they should return
<07725> (8800)

into the land
<0776>

of Judah
<03063>_,

to the which they have
<05375> (8764)

a desire
<05315>

to return
<07725> (8800)

to dwell
<03427> (8800)

there: for none shall return
<07725> (8799)

but such as shall escape
<06405>_.

{have...: Heb. lift up their soul}

44:15

Then all the men
<0582>

which knew
<03045> (8802)

that their wives
<0802>

had burned incense
<06999> (8764)

unto other
<0312>

gods
<0430>_,

and all the women
<0802>

that stood by
<05975> (8802)_,

a great
<01419>

multitude
<06951>_,

even all the people
<05971>

that dwelt
<03427> (8802)

in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

in Pathros
<06624>_,

answered
<06030> (8799)

Jeremiah
<03414>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

44:16

[As for] the word
<01697>

that thou hast spoken
<01696> (8765)

unto us in the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

we will not hearken
<08085> (8802)

unto thee.

44:17

But we will certainly
<06213> (8800)

do
<06213> (8799)

whatsoever thing
<01697>

goeth forth
<03318> (8804)

out of our own mouth
<06310>_,

to burn incense
<06999> (8763)

unto the queen
<04446>

of heaven
<08064>_,

and to pour out
<05258> (8687)

drink offerings
<05262>

unto her, as we have done
<06213> (8804)_,

we, and our fathers
<01>_,

our kings
<04428>_,

and our princes
<08269>_,

in the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and in the streets
<02351>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_:

for [then] had we plenty
<07646> (8799)

of victuals
<03899>_,

and were well
<02896>_,

and saw
<07200> (8804)

no evil
<07451>_.

{queen...: or, frame of heaven} {victuals: Heb. bread}

44:18

But since we left off
<02308> (8804)

to burn incense
<06999> (8763)

to the queen
<04446>

of heaven
<08064>_,

and to pour out
<05258> (8687)

drink offerings
<05262>

unto her, we have wanted
<02637> (8804)

all [things], and have been consumed
<08552> (8804)

by the sword
<02719>

and by the famine
<07458>_.

44:19

And when we burned incense
<06999> (8764)

to the queen
<04446>

of heaven
<08064>_,

and poured out
<05258> (8687)

drink offerings
<05262>

unto her, did we make
<06213> (8804)

her cakes
<03561>

to worship
<06087> (8687)

her, and pour out
<05258> (8687)

drink offerings
<05262>

unto her, without
<01107>

our men
<0582>_?

{men: or, husbands?}

44:20

Then Jeremiah
<03414>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto all the people
<05971>_,

to the men
<01397>_,

and to the women
<0802>_,

and to all the people
<05971>

which had given him [that] answer
<01697> <06030> (8802)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

44:21

The incense
<07002>

that ye burned
<06999> (8765)

in the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and in the streets
<02351>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_,

ye, and your fathers
<01>_,

your kings
<04428>_,

and your princes
<08269>_,

and the people
<05971>

of the land
<0776>_,

did not the LORD
<03068>

remember
<02142> (8804)

them, and came
<05927> (8799)

it [not] into his mind
<03820>_?

44:22

So that the LORD
<03068>

could
<03201> (8799)

no longer bear
<05375> (8800)_,

because
<06440>

of the evil
<07455>

of your doings
<04611>_,

[and] because
<06440>

of the abominations
<08441>

which ye have committed
<06213> (8804)_;

therefore is your land
<0776>

a desolation
<02723>_,

and an astonishment
<08047>_,

and a curse
<07045>_,

without an inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_,

as at this day
<03117>_.

44:23

Because
<06440> <0834>

ye have burned incense
<06999> (8765)_,

and because ye have sinned
<02398> (8804)

against the LORD
<03068>_,

and have not obeyed
<08085> (8804)

the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

nor walked
<01980> (8804)

in his law
<08451>_,

nor in his statutes
<02708>_,

nor in his testimonies
<05715>_;

therefore this evil
<07451>

is happened
<07122> (8804)

unto you, as at this day
<03117>_.

44:24

Moreover Jeremiah
<03414>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto all the people
<05971>_,

and to all the women
<0802>_,

Hear
<08085> (8798)

the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

all Judah
<03063>

that [are] in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_:

44:25

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_;

Ye and your wives
<0802>

have both spoken
<01696> (8762)

with your mouths
<06310>_,

and fulfilled
<04390> (8765)

with your hand
<03027>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

We will surely
<06213> (8800)

perform
<06213> (8799)

our vows
<05088>

that we have vowed
<05087> (8804)_,

to burn incense
<06999> (8763)

to the queen
<04446>

of heaven
<08064>_,

and to pour out
<05258> (8687)

drink offerings
<05262>

unto her: ye will surely
<06965> (8687)

accomplish
<06965> (8686)

your vows
<05088>_,

and surely
<06213> (8800)

perform
<06213> (8799)

your vows
<05088>_.

44:26

Therefore hear
<08085> (8798)

ye the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

all Judah
<03063>

that dwell
<03427> (8802)

in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_;

Behold, I have sworn
<07650> (8738)

by my great
<01419>

name
<08034>_,

saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

that my name
<08034>

shall no more be named
<07121> (8737)

in the mouth
<06310>

of any man
<0376>

of Judah
<03063>

in all the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

saying
<0559> (8802)_,

The Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>

liveth
<02416>_.

44:27

Behold, I will watch
<08245> (8802)

over them for evil
<07451>_,

and not for good
<02896>_:

and all the men
<0376>

of Judah
<03063>

that [are] in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

shall be consumed
<08552> (8804)

by the sword
<02719>

and by the famine
<07458>_,

until there be an end
<03615> (8800)

of them.

44:28

Yet a small
<04962>

number
<04557>

that escape
<06412>

the sword
<02719>

shall return out
<07725> (8799)

of the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

into the land
<0776>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and all the remnant
<07611>

of Judah
<03063>_,

that are gone
<0935> (8802)

into the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>

to sojourn
<01481> (8800)

there, shall know
<03045> (8804)

whose words
<01697>

shall stand
<06965> (8799)_,

mine, or theirs. {mine...: Heb. from me, or, from them}

44:29

And this [shall be] a sign
<0226>

unto you, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

that I will punish
<06485> (8802)

you in this place
<04725>_,

that ye may know
<03045> (8799)

that my words
<01697>

shall surely
<06965> (8800)

stand
<06965> (8799)

against you for evil
<07451>_:

44:30

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_;

Behold, I will give
<05414> (8802)

Pharaohhophra
<06548>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>

into the hand
<03027>

of his enemies
<0341> (8802)_,

and into the hand
<03027>

of them that seek
<01245> (8764)

his life
<05315>_;

as I gave
<05414> (8804)

Zedekiah
<06667>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

into the hand
<03027>

of Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>_,

his enemy
<0341> (8802)_,

and that sought
<01245> (8764)

his life
<05315>_.

45:1

The word
<01697>

that Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>

spake
<01696> (8765)

unto Baruch
<01263>

the son
<01121>

of Neriah
<05374>_,

when he had written
<03789> (8800)

these words
<01697>

in a book
<05612>

at the mouth
<06310>

of Jeremiah
<03414>_,

in the fourth
<07243>

year
<08141>

of Jehoiakim
<03079>

the son
<01121>

of Josiah
<02977>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

45:2

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

unto thee, O Baruch
<01263>_;

45:3

Thou didst say
<0559> (8804)_,

Woe
<0188>

is me now! for the LORD
<03068>

hath added
<03254> (8804)

grief
<03015>

to my sorrow
<04341>_;

I fainted
<03021> (8804)

in my sighing
<0585>_,

and I find
<04672> (8804)

no rest
<04496>_.

45:4

Thus shalt thou say
<0559> (8799)

unto him, The LORD
<03068>

saith
<0559> (8804)

thus; Behold, [that] which I have built
<01129> (8804)

will I break down
<02040> (8802)_,

and that which I have planted
<05193> (8804)

I will pluck up
<05428> (8802)_,

even this whole land
<0776>_.

45:5

And seekest
<01245> (8762)

thou great things
<01419>

for thyself? seek
<01245> (8762)

[them] not: for, behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)

evil
<07451>

upon all flesh
<01320>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_:

but thy life
<05315>

will I give
<05414> (8804)

unto thee for a prey
<07998>

in all places
<04725>

whither thou goest
<03212> (8799)_.
