Jeremiah 6:18-30

Therefore hear
<08085> (8798)_,

ye nations
<01471>_,

and know
<03045> (8798)_,

O congregation
<05712>_,

what [is] among them.

Hear
<08085> (8798)_,

O earth
<0776>_:

behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)

evil
<07451>

upon this people
<05971>_,

[even] the fruit
<06529>

of their thoughts
<04284>_,

because they have not hearkened
<07181> (8689)

unto my words
<01697>_,

nor to my law
<08451>_,

but rejected
<03988> (8799)

it.

To what purpose cometh
<0935> (8799)

there to me incense
<03828>

from Sheba
<07614>_,

and the sweet
<02896>

cane
<07070>

from a far
<04801>

country
<0776>_?

your burnt offerings
<05930>

[are] not acceptable
<07522>_,

nor your sacrifices
<02077>

sweet
<06149> (8804)

unto me.

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Behold, I will lay
<05414> (8802)

stumblingblocks
<04383>

before this people
<05971>_,

and the fathers
<01>

and the sons
<01121>

together
<03162>

shall fall
<03782> (8804)

upon them; the neighbour
<07934>

and his friend
<07453>

shall perish
<06> (8804)_.

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Behold, a people
<05971>

cometh
<0935> (8802)

from the north
<06828>

country
<0776>_,

and a great
<01419>

nation
<01471>

shall be raised
<05782> (8735)

from the sides
<03411>

of the earth
<0776>_.

They shall lay hold
<02388> (8686)

on bow
<07198>

and spear
<03591>_;

they [are] cruel
<0394>_,

and have no mercy
<07355> (8762)_;

their voice
<06963>

roareth
<01993> (8799)

like the sea
<03220>_;

and they ride
<07392> (8799)

upon horses
<05483>_,

set in array
<06186> (8803)

as men
<0376>

for war
<04421>

against thee, O daughter
<01323>

of Zion
<06726>_.

We have heard
<08085> (8804)

the fame
<08089>

thereof: our hands
<03027>

wax feeble
<07503> (8804)_:

anguish
<06869>

hath taken hold
<02388> (8689)

of us, [and] pain
<02427>_,

as of a woman in travail
<03205> (8802)_.

Go not forth
<03318> (8799)

into the field
<07704>_,

nor walk
<03212> (8799)

by the way
<01870>_;

for the sword
<02719>

of the enemy
<0341> (8802)

[and] fear
<04032>

[is] on every side
<05439>_.

O daughter
<01323>

of my people
<05971>_,

gird
<02296> (8798)

[thee] with sackcloth
<08242>_,

and wallow
<06428> (8690)

thyself in ashes
<0665>_:

make
<06213> (8798)

thee mourning
<060>_,

[as for] an only son
<03173>_,

most bitter
<08563>

lamentation
<04553>_:

for the spoiler
<07703> (8802)

shall suddenly
<06597>

come
<0935> (8799)

upon us.

I have set
<05414> (8804)

thee [for] a tower
<0969>

[and] a fortress
<04013>

among my people
<05971>_,

that thou mayest know
<03045> (8799)

and try
<0974> (8804)

their way
<01870>_.

They [are] all grievous
<05493> (8802)

revolters
<05637> (8802)_,

walking
<01980> (8802)

with slanders
<07400>_:

[they are] brass
<05178>

and iron
<01270>_;

they [are] all corrupters
<07843> (8688)_.

The bellows
<04647>

are burned
<02787> (8738)_,

the lead
<05777>

is consumed
<08552> (8804)

of the fire
<0800> <0784>_;

the founder
<06884> (8800)

melteth
<06884> (8804)

in vain
<07723>_:

for the wicked
<07451>

are not plucked away
<05423> (8738)_.

Reprobate
<03988> (8737)

silver
<03701>

shall [men] call
<07121> (8804)

them, because the LORD
<03068>

hath rejected
<03988> (8804)

them. {Reprobate...: or, Refuse silver}
