The wordH1697 that came to JeremiahH3414 from the LORDH3068, sayingH559,
HearH8085 ye the wordsH1697 of this covenantH1285, and speakH1696 unto the menH376 of JudahH3063, and to the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389;
And sayH559 thou unto them, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478; CursedH779 be the manH376 that obeyethH8085 not the wordsH1697 of this covenantH1285,
Which I commandedH6680 your fathersH1 in the dayH3117 that I brought them forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, from the ironH1270 furnaceH3564, sayingH559, ObeyH8085 my voiceH6963, and doH6213 them, according to all which I commandH6680 you: so shall ye be my peopleH5971, and I will be your GodH430:
That I may performH6965 the oathH7621 which I have swornH7650 unto your fathersH1, to giveH5414 them a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706, as it is this dayH3117. Then answeredH6030 I, and saidH559, So be itH543, O LORDH3068. {So…: Heb. Amen}
Then the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, ProclaimH7121 all these wordsH1697 in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and in the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389, sayingH559, HearH8085 ye the wordsH1697 of this covenantH1285, and doH6213 them.
For I earnestlyH5749 protestedH5749 unto your fathersH1 in the dayH3117 that I brought them upH5927 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, even unto this dayH3117, rising earlyH7925 and protestingH5749, sayingH559, ObeyH8085 my voiceH6963.
Yet they obeyedH8085 not, nor inclinedH5186 their earH241, but walkedH3212 every oneH376 in the imaginationH8307 of their evilH7451 heartH3820: therefore I will bringH935 upon them all the wordsH1697 of this covenantH1285, which I commandedH6680 them to doH6213; but they didH6213 them not. {imagination: or, stubbornness}
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, A conspiracyH7195 is foundH4672 among the menH376 of JudahH3063, and among the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389.
They are turned backH7725 to the iniquitiesH5771 of their forefathersH7223+H1, which refusedH3985 to hearH8085 my wordsH1697; and they wentH1980 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 them: the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 have brokenH6565 my covenantH1285 which I madeH3772 with their fathersH1.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon them, which they shall not be ableH3201 to escapeH3318; and though they shall cryH2199 unto me, I will not hearkenH8085 unto them. {to escape: Heb. to go forth of}
Then shall the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 and inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 goH1980, and cryH2199 unto the godsH430 unto whom they offer incenseH6999: but they shall not saveH3467 them at allH3467 in the timeH6256 of their troubleH7451. {trouble: Heb. evil}
For according to the numberH4557 of thy citiesH5892 were thy godsH430, O JudahH3063; and according to the numberH4557 of the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389 have ye set upH7760 altarsH4196 to that shameful thingH1322, even altarsH4196 to burn incenseH6999 unto BaalH1168. {shameful…: Heb. shame}
Therefore prayH6419 not thou for this peopleH5971, neither lift upH5375 a cryH7440 or prayerH8605 for them: for I will not hearH8085 them in the timeH6256 that they cryH7121 unto me for their troubleH7451. {trouble: Heb. evil}
What hath my belovedH3039 to do in mine houseH1004, seeing she hath wroughtH6213 lewdnessH4209 with manyH7227, and the holyH6944 fleshH1320 is passedH5674 from thee? when thou doest evilH7451, then thou rejoicestH5937. {What…: Heb. What is to my beloved in my house} {when…: or, when thy evil is}
The LORDH3068 calledH7121 thy nameH8034, A greenH7488 olive treeH2132, fairH3303, and of goodlyH8389 fruitH6529: with the noiseH6963 of a greatH1419 tumultH1999 he hath kindledH3341 fireH784 upon it, and the branchesH1808 of it are brokenH7489.
For the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, that plantedH5193 thee, hath pronouncedH1696 evilH7451 against thee, forH1558 the evilH7451 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and of the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, which they have doneH6213 against themselves to provoke me to angerH3707 in offering incenseH6999 unto BaalH1168.
And the LORDH3068 hath given me knowledgeH3045 of it, and I knowH3045 it: then thou shewedstH7200 me their doingsH4611.
But I was like a lambH3532 or an oxH441 that is broughtH2986 to the slaughterH2873; and I knewH3045 not that they had devisedH2803 devicesH4284 against me, saying, Let us destroyH7843 the treeH6086 with the fruitH3899 thereof, and let us cut him offH3772 from the landH776 of the livingH2416, that his nameH8034 may be no more rememberedH2142. {the tree…: Heb. the stalk with his bread}
But, O LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, that judgestH8199 righteouslyH6664, that triestH974 the reinsH3629 and the heartH3820, let me seeH7200 thy vengeanceH5360 on them: for unto thee have I revealedH1540 my causeH7379.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of the menH582 of AnathothH6068, that seekH1245 thy lifeH5315, sayingH559, ProphesyH5012 not in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068, that thou dieH4191 not by our handH3027:
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, Behold, I will punishH6485 them: the young menH970 shall dieH4191 by the swordH2719; their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 shall dieH4191 by famineH7458: {punish: Heb. visit upon}
And there shall be no remnantH7611 of them: for I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon the menH582 of AnathothH6068, even the yearH8141 of their visitationH6486.

Now therefore hearkenH8085 unto their voiceH6963: howbeitH389 yet protestH5749 solemnlyH5749 unto them, and shewH5046 them the mannerH4941 of the kingH4428 that shall reignH4427 over them. {hearken…: or, obey} {howbeit…: or, notwithstanding when thou hast solemnly protested against them then thou shalt}
And now, because ye have doneH6213 all these worksH4639, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and I spakeH1696 unto you, rising up earlyH7925 and speakingH1696, but ye heardH8085 not; and I calledH7121 you, but ye answeredH6030 not;
ThisG5124 I sayG3004 thereforeG3767, andG2532 testifyG3143 inG1722 the LordG2962, that yeG5209 henceforthG3371 walkG4043 notG3371 asG2531+G2532 otherG3062 GentilesG1484 walkG4043, inG1722 the vanityG3153 of theirG846 mindG3563,
But this thingH1697 commandedH6680 I them, sayingH559, ObeyH8085 my voiceH6963, and I will be your GodH430, and ye shall be my peopleH5971: and walkH1980 ye in all the waysH1870 that I have commandedH6680 you, that it may be wellH3190 unto you.
But they hearkenedH8085 not, nor inclinedH5186 their earH241, but walkedH3212 in the counselsH4156 and in the imaginationH8307 of their evilH7451 heartH3820, and went backwardH268, and not forwardH6440. {imagination: or, stubbornness} {went: Heb. were}
Since the dayH3117 that your fathersH1 came forth outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 unto this dayH3117 I have even sentH7971 unto you all my servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, dailyH3117 rising up earlyH7925 and sendingH7971 them:
NowG1161 them that are suchG5108 we commandG3853 andG2532 exhortG3870 byG1223 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, thatG2443 withG3326 quietnessG2271 they workG2038, and eatG2068 their ownG1438 breadG740.
And the LORDH3068 hath sentH7971 unto you all his servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, rising earlyH7925 and sendingH7971 them; but ye have not hearkenedH8085, nor inclinedH5186 your earH241 to hearH8085.
I have sentH7971 also unto you all my servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, rising up earlyH7925 and sendingH7971 them, sayingH559, ReturnH7725 ye now every manH376 from his evilH7451 wayH1870, and amendH3190 your doingsH4611, and goH3212 not afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 them, and ye shall dwell inH3427 the landH127 which I have givenH5414 to you and to your fathersH1: but ye have not inclinedH5186 your earH241, nor hearkenedH8085 unto me.
And saidH559, If thou wilt diligentlyH8085 hearkenH8085 to the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and wilt doH6213 that which is rightH3477 in his sightH5869, and wilt give earH238 to his commandmentsH4687, and keepH8104 all his statutesH2706, I will putH7760 none of these diseasesH4245 upon thee, which I have broughtH7760 upon the EgyptiansH4714: for I am the LORDH3068 that healethH7495 thee.
BewareH8104 ofH6440 him, and obeyH8085 his voiceH6963, provokeH4843 him not; for he will not pardonH5375 your transgressionsH6588: for my nameH8034 is in himH7130.
But if thou shalt indeedH8085 obeyH8085 his voiceH6963, and doH6213 all that I speakH1696; then I will be an enemyH340 unto thine enemiesH341, and an adversaryH6887 unto thine adversariesH6696. {an adversary…: or, I will afflict them that afflict thee}
KeepH8104 therefore and doH6213 them; for this is your wisdomH2451 and your understandingH998 in the sightH5869 of the nationsH5971, which shall hearH8085 all these statutesH2706, and sayH559, Surely this greatH1419 nationH1471 is a wiseH2450 and understandingH995 peopleH5971.
O that there were suchH2088 anH4310 heartH3824 in themH5414, that they would fearH3372 me, and keepH8104 all my commandmentsH4687 alwaysH3117, that it might be wellH3190 with them, and with their childrenH1121 for everH5769!
That thou mightest fearH3372 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, to keepH8104 all his statutesH2708 and his commandmentsH4687, which I commandH6680 thee, thou, and thy sonH1121, and thy son'sH1121 sonH1121, all the daysH3117 of thy lifeH2416; and that thy daysH3117 may be prolongedH748.
Therefore thou shalt keepH8104 the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, to walkH3212 in his waysH1870, and to fearH3372 him.
And now, IsraelH3478, what doth the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 requireH7592 of thee, but to fearH3372 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, to walkH3212 in all his waysH1870, and to loveH157 him, and to serveH5647 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 with all thy heartH3824 and with all thy soulH5315,
To keepH8104 the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068, and his statutesH2708, which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117 for thy goodH2896?
BeholdH7200, I setH5414 beforeH6440 you this dayH3117 a blessingH1293 and a curseH7045;
A blessingH1293, if ye obeyH8085 the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430, which I commandH6680 you this dayH3117:
And a curseH7045, if ye will not obeyH8085 the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430, but turn asideH5493 out of the wayH1870 which I commandH6680 you this dayH3117, to goH3212 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430, which ye have not knownH3045.
What thingH1697 soever I commandH6680 you, observeH8104 to doH6213 it: thou shalt not addH3254 thereto, nor diminishH1639 from it.
And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearkenH8085 diligentlyH8085 unto the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, to observeH8104 and to doH6213 all his commandmentsH4687 which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117, that the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 will setH5414 thee on highH5945 above all nationsH1471 of the earthH776:
And all these blessingsH1293 shall comeH935 on thee, and overtakeH5381 thee, if thou shalt hearkenH8085 unto the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430.
BlessedH1288 shalt thou be in the cityH5892, and blessedH1288 shalt thou be in the fieldH7704.
BlessedH1288 shall be the fruitH6529 of thy bodyH990, and the fruitH6529 of thy groundH127, and the fruitH6529 of thy cattleH929, the increaseH7698 of thy kineH504, and the flocksH6251 of thy sheepH6629.
BlessedH1288 shall be thy basketH2935 and thy storeH4863. {store: or, dough, or, kneadingtroughs}
BlessedH1288 shalt thou be when thou comest inH935, and blessedH1288 shalt thou be when thou goest outH3318.
The LORDH3068 shall causeH5414 thine enemiesH341 that rise upH6965 against thee to be smittenH5062 before thy faceH6440: they shall come outH3318 against thee oneH259 wayH1870, and fleeH5127 beforeH6440 thee sevenH7651 waysH1870.
The LORDH3068 shall commandH6680 the blessingH1293 upon thee in thy storehousesH618, and in all that thou settestH4916 thine handH3027 unto; and he shall blessH1288 thee in the landH776 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee. {storehouses: or, barns}
The LORDH3068 shall establishH6965 thee an holyH6918 peopleH5971 unto himself, as he hath swornH7650 unto thee, if thou shalt keepH8104 the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and walkH1980 in his waysH1870.
And all peopleH5971 of the earthH776 shall seeH7200 that thou art calledH7121 by the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068; and they shall be afraidH3372 of thee.
And the LORDH3068 shall make thee plenteousH3498 in goodsH2896, in the fruitH6529 of thy bodyH990, and in the fruitH6529 of thy cattleH929, and in the fruitH6529 of thy groundH127, in the landH127 which the LORDH3068 swareH7650 unto thy fathersH1 to giveH5414 thee. {in goods: or, for good} {body: Heb. belly}
The LORDH3068 shall openH6605 unto thee his goodH2896 treasureH214, the heavenH8064 to giveH5414 the rainH4306 unto thy landH776 in his seasonH6256, and to blessH1288 all the workH4639 of thine handH3027: and thou shalt lendH3867 unto manyH7227 nationsH1471, and thou shalt not borrowH3867.
And the LORDH3068 shall makeH5414 thee the headH7218, and not the tailH2180; and thou shalt be above onlyH4605, and thou shalt not be beneathH4295; if that thou hearkenH8085 unto the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117, to observeH8104 and to doH6213 them:
And thou shalt not go asideH5493 from any of the wordsH1697 which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117, to the right handH3225, or to the leftH8040, to goH3212 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 them.
That thou mayest loveH157 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and that thou mayest obeyH8085 his voiceH6963, and that thou mayest cleaveH1692 unto him: for he is thy lifeH2416, and the lengthH753 of thy daysH3117: that thou mayest dwellH3427 in the landH127 which the LORDH3068 swareH7650 unto thy fathersH1, to AbrahamH85, to IsaacH3327, and to JacobH3290, to giveH5414 them.
