Jeremiah 44:20-30

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>_.
