Jeremiah 40:1-7

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}

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>_.

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.

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}

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)_.

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>_.

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>_;
