Jeremiah 41:1--43:13

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>_.
