Jeremiah 46:1-28

46:1

The word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

which came to Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>

against the Gentiles
<01471>_;

46:2

Against Egypt
<04714>_,

against the army
<02428>

of Pharaohnecho
<06549>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

which was by the river
<05104>

Euphrates
<06578>

in Carchemish
<03751>_,

which Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

smote
<05221> (8689)

in the fourth
<07243>

year
<08141>

of Jehoiakim
<03079>

the son
<01121>

of Josiah
<02977>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_.

46:3

Order
<06186> (8798)

ye the buckler
<04043>

and shield
<06793>_,

and draw near
<05066> (8798)

to battle
<04421>_.

46:4

Harness
<0631> (8798)

the horses
<05483>_;

and get up
<05927> (8798)_,

ye horsemen
<06571>_,

and stand forth
<03320> (8690)

with [your] helmets
<03553>_;

furbish
<04838> (8798)

the spears
<07420>_,

[and] put on
<03847> (8798)

the brigandines
<05630>_.

46:5

Wherefore have I seen
<07200> (8804)

them dismayed
<02844>

[and] turned
<05472> (8737)

away back
<0268>_?

and their mighty ones
<01368>

are beaten down
<03807> (8714)_,

and are fled
<05127> (8804)

apace
<04498>_,

and look not back
<06437> (8689)_:

[for] fear
<04032>

[was] round about
<05439>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

{beaten...: Heb. broken in pieces} {fled...: Heb. fled a flight}

46:6

Let not the swift
<07031>

flee away
<05127> (8799)_,

nor the mighty man
<01368>

escape
<04422> (8735)_;

they shall stumble
<03782> (8804)_,

and fall
<05307> (8804)

toward the north
<06828>

by
<03027>

the river
<05104>

Euphrates
<06578>_.

46:7

Who [is] this [that] cometh up
<05927> (8799)

as a flood
<02975>_,

whose waters
<04325>

are moved
<01607> (8691)

as the rivers
<05104>_?

46:8

Egypt
<04714>

riseth up
<05927> (8799)

like a flood
<02975>_,

and [his] waters
<04325>

are moved
<01607> (8704)

like the rivers
<05104>_;

and he saith
<0559> (8799)_,

I will go up
<05927> (8799)_,

[and] will cover
<03680> (8762)

the earth
<0776>_;

I will destroy
<06> (8686)

the city
<05892>

and the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

thereof.

46:9

Come up
<05927> (8798)_,

ye horses
<05483>_;

and rage
<01984> (8703)_,

ye chariots
<07393>_;

and let the mighty men
<01368>

come forth
<03318> (8799)_;

the Ethiopians
<03568>

and the Libyans
<06316>_,

that handle
<08610> (8802)

the shield
<04043>_;

and the Lydians
<03866>_,

that handle
<08610> (8802)

[and] bend
<01869> (8802)

the bow
<07198>_.

{the Ethiopians: Heb. Cush} {the Libyans: Heb. Put}

46:10

For this [is] the day
<03117>

of the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>

of hosts
<06635>_,

a day
<03117>

of vengeance
<05360>_,

that he may avenge
<05358> (8736)

him of his adversaries
<06862>_:

and the sword
<02719>

shall devour
<0398> (8804)_,

and it shall be satiate
<07646> (8804)

and made drunk
<07301> (8804)

with their blood
<01818>_:

for the Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>

of hosts
<06635>

hath a sacrifice
<02077>

in the north
<06828>

country
<0776>

by the river
<05104>

Euphrates
<06578>_.

46:11

Go up
<05927> (8798)

into Gilead
<01568>_,

and take
<03947> (8798)

balm
<06875>_,

O virgin
<01330>_,

the daughter
<01323>

of Egypt
<04714>_:

in vain
<07723>

shalt thou use many
<07235> (8689)

medicines
<07499>_;

[for] thou shalt not be cured
<08585>_.

{thou shalt...: Heb. no cure shall be unto thee}

46:12

The nations
<01471>

have heard
<08085> (8804)

of thy shame
<07036>_,

and thy cry
<06682>

hath filled
<04390> (8804)

the land
<0776>_:

for the mighty man
<01368>

hath stumbled
<03782> (8804)

against the mighty
<01368>_,

[and] they are fallen
<05307> (8804)

both
<08147>

together
<03162>_.

46:13

The word
<01697>

that the LORD
<03068>

spake
<01696> (8765)

to Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>_,

how Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

should come
<0935> (8800)

[and] smite
<05221> (8687)

the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

46:14

Declare
<05046> (8685)

ye in Egypt
<04714>_,

and publish
<08085> (8685)

in Migdol
<04024>_,

and publish
<08085> (8685)

in Noph
<05297>

and in Tahpanhes
<08471>_:

say
<0559> (8798)

ye, Stand fast
<03320> (8690)_,

and prepare
<03559> (8685)

thee; for the sword
<02719>

shall devour
<0398> (8804)

round about
<05439>

thee.

46:15

Why are thy valiant
<047>

[men] swept away
<05502> (8738)_?

they stood
<05975> (8804)

not, because the LORD
<03068>

did drive
<01920> (8804)

them.

46:16

He made many
<07235> (8689)

to fall
<03782> (8802)_,

yea, one
<0376>

fell
<05307> (8804)

upon another
<07453>_:

and they said
<0559> (8799)_,

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

and let us go again
<07725> (8799)

to our own people
<05971>_,

and to the land
<0776>

of our nativity
<04138>_,

from
<06440>

the oppressing
<03238> (8802)

sword
<02719>_.

{made...: Heb. multiplied the faller}

46:17

They did cry
<07121> (8804)

there, Pharaoh
<06547>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>

[is but] a noise
<07588>_;

he hath passed
<05674> (8689)

the time appointed
<04150>_.

46:18

[As] I live
<02416>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the King
<04428>_,

whose name
<08034>

[is] the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

Surely as Tabor
<08396>

[is] among the mountains
<02022>_,

and as Carmel
<03760>

by the sea
<03220>_,

[so] shall he come
<0935> (8799)_.

46:19

O thou daughter
<01323>

dwelling
<03427> (8802)

in Egypt
<04714>_,

furnish
<06213> (8798)

thyself to go into captivity
<03627> <01473>_:

for Noph
<05297>

shall be waste
<08047>

and desolate
<03341> (8738)

without an inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_.

{furnish...: Heb. make thee instruments of captivity}

46:20

Egypt
<04714>

[is like] a very fair
<03304>

heifer
<05697>_,

[but] destruction
<07171>

cometh
<0935> (8804)_;

it cometh out
<0935> (8804)

of the north
<06828>_.

46:21

Also her hired men
<07916>

[are] in the midst
<07130>

of her like fatted
<04770>

bullocks
<05695>_;

for they also are turned back
<06437> (8689)_,

[and] are fled away
<05127> (8804)

together
<03162>_:

they did not stand
<05975> (8804)_,

because the day
<03117>

of their calamity
<0343>

was come
<0935> (8804)

upon them, [and] the time
<06256>

of their visitation
<06486>_.

{fatted...: Heb. bullocks of the stall}

46:22

The voice
<06963>

thereof shall go
<03212> (8799)

like a serpent
<05175>_;

for they shall march
<03212> (8799)

with an army
<02428>_,

and come
<0935> (8804)

against her with axes
<07134>_,

as hewers
<02404> (8802)

of wood
<06086>_.

46:23

They shall cut down
<03772> (8804)

her forest
<03293>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

though it cannot be searched
<02713> (8735)_;

because they are more
<07231> (8804)

than the grasshoppers
<0697>_,

and [are] innumerable
<0369> <04557>_.

46:24

The daughter
<01323>

of Egypt
<04714>

shall be confounded
<03001> (8689)_;

she shall be delivered
<05414> (8738)

into the hand
<03027>

of the people
<05971>

of the north
<06828>_.

46:25

The LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

saith
<0559> (8804)_;

Behold, I will punish
<06485> (8802)

the multitude
<0527> (8676) <0528>

of No
<04996>_,

and Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and Egypt
<04714>_,

with their gods
<0430>_,

and their kings
<04428>_;

even Pharaoh
<06547>_,

and [all] them that trust
<0982> (8802)

in him: {multitude: or, nourisher: Heb. Amon}

46:26

And I will deliver
<05414> (8804)

them into the hand
<03027>

of those that seek
<01245> (8764)

their lives
<05315>_,

and into the hand
<03027>

of Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>_,

and into the hand
<03027>

of his servants
<05650>_:

and afterward
<0310>

it shall be inhabited
<07931> (8799)_,

as in the days
<03117>

of old
<06924>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

46:27

But fear
<03372> (8799)

not thou, O my servant
<05650>

Jacob
<03290>_,

and be not dismayed
<02865> (8735)_,

O Israel
<03478>_:

for, behold, I will save
<03467> (8688)

thee from afar off
<07350>_,

and thy seed
<02233>

from the land
<0776>

of their captivity
<07628>_;

and Jacob
<03290>

shall return
<07725> (8804)_,

and be in rest
<08252> (8804)

and at ease
<07599> (8768)_,

and none shall make [him] afraid
<02729> (8688)_.

46:28

Fear
<03372> (8799)

thou not, O Jacob
<03290>

my servant
<05650>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_:

for I [am] with thee; for I will make
<06213> (8799)

a full end
<03617>

of all the nations
<01471>

whither I have driven
<05080> (8689)

thee: but I will not make
<06213> (8799)

a full end
<03617>

of thee, but correct
<03256> (8765)

thee in measure
<04941>_;

yet will I not leave thee wholly
<05352> (8763)

unpunished
<05352> (8762)_.

{not leave...: or, not utterly cut thee off}
