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.

If thou hast runH7323 with the footmenH7273, and they have weariedH3811 thee, then how canst thou contendH8474 with horsesH5483? and if in the landH776 of peaceH7965, wherein thou trustedstH982, they wearied thee, then how wilt thou doH6213 in the swellingH1347 of JordanH3383?
Which sayH559 to the seersH7200, SeeH7200 not; and to the prophetsH2374, ProphesyH2372 not unto us right thingsH5229, speakH1696 unto us smooth thingsH2513, prophesyH2372 deceitsH4123:
Now PashurH6583 the sonH1121 of ImmerH564 the priestH3548, who was also chiefH6496 governorH5057 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, heardH8085 that JeremiahH3414 prophesiedH5012 these thingsH1697.
For even thy brethrenH251, and the houseH1004 of thy fatherH1, even they have dealt treacherouslyH898 with thee; yea, they have calledH7121 a multitudeH4392 afterH310 thee: believeH539 them not, though they speakH1696 fair wordsH2896 unto thee. {they have called…: or, they cried after thee fully} {fair…: Heb. good things}
But ye gave the NazaritesH5139 wineH3196 to drinkH8248; and commandedH6680 the prophetsH5030, sayingH559, ProphesyH5012 not.

For I heardH8085 the defamingH1681 of manyH7227, fearH4032 on every sideH5439. ReportH5046, say they, and we will reportH5046 it. All my familiarsH582+H7965 watchedH8104 for my haltingH6763+H6761, saying, Peradventure he will be enticedH6601, and we shall prevailH3201 against him, and we shall takeH3947 our revengeH5360 on him. {All…: Heb. Every man of my peace}
But prophesyH5012 not againH3254 any more at BethelH1008: for it is the king'sH4428 chapelH4720, and it is the king'sH4467 courtH1004. {chapel: or, sanctuary} {king's court: Heb. house of the kingdom}
Then answeredH6030 AmosH5986, and saidH559 to AmaziahH558, I was no prophetH5030, neither was I a prophet'sH5030 sonH1121; but I was an herdmanH951, and a gathererH1103 of sycomore fruitH8256: {sycomore…: or, wild figs}
And the LORDH3068 tookH3947 me as I followedH310 the flockH6629, and the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, GoH3212, prophesyH5012 unto my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478. {as…: Heb. from behind}
Now therefore hearH8085 thou the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068: Thou sayestH559, ProphesyH5012 not against IsraelH3478, and dropH5197 not thy word against the houseH1004 of IsaacH3446.
Then ShephatiahH8203 the sonH1121 of MattanH4977, and GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of PashurH6583, and JucalH3116 the sonH1121 of ShelemiahH8018, and PashurH6583 the sonH1121 of MalchiahH4441, heardH8085 the wordsH1697 that JeremiahH3414 had spokenH1696 unto all the peopleH5971, sayingH559,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, He that remainethH3427 in this cityH5892 shall dieH4191 by the swordH2719, by the famineH7458, and by the pestilenceH1698: but he that goeth forthH3318 to the ChaldeansH3778 shall liveH2421; for he shall have his lifeH5315 for a preyH7998, and shall liveH2421+H2425.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, This cityH5892 shall surelyH5414 be givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of Babylon'sH894 armyH2428, which shall takeH3920 it.
Therefore the princesH8269 saidH559 unto the kingH4428, We beseech thee, let this manH376 be put to deathH4191: for thusH3651 he weakenethH7503 the handsH3027 of the menH582 of warH4421 that remainH7604 in this cityH5892, and the handsH3027 of all the peopleH5971, in speakingH1696 such wordsH1697 unto them: for this manH376 seekethH1875 not the welfareH7965 of this peopleH5971, but the hurtH7451. {welfare: Heb. peace}
Then ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 saidH559, Behold, he is in your handH3027: for the kingH4428 is not he that canH3201 do any thingH1697 against you.
Then tookH3947 they JeremiahH3414, and castH7993 him into the dungeonH953 of MalchiahH4441 the sonH1121 of HammelechH4428, that was in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307: and they let downH7971 JeremiahH3414 with cordsH2256. And in the dungeonH953 there was no waterH4325, but mireH2916: so JeremiahH3414 sunkH2883 in the mireH2916. {of Hammelech: or, of the king}
For the sonH1121 dishonourethH5034 the fatherH1, the daughterH1323 riseth upH6965 against her motherH517, the daughter in lawH3618 against her mother in lawH2545; a man'sH376 enemiesH341 are the menH582 of his own houseH1004.
ProphesyH5197 ye not, say they to them that prophesyH5197: they shall not prophesyH5197 to them, that they shall not takeH5253 shameH3639. {Prophesy ye…: or, Prophesy not as they prophesy: Heb. Drop, etc}
O thou that art namedH559 the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, is the spiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 straitenedH7114? are these his doingsH4611? do not my wordsH1697 do goodH3190 to him that walkethH1980 uprightlyH3477? {straitened: or, shortened?} {uprightly: Heb. upright?}
Even of lateH865 my peopleH5971 is risen upH6965 as an enemyH341: ye pull offH6584 the robeH145 withH4136 the garmentH8008 from them that passH5674 by securelyH983 as men averseH7725 from warH4421. {of late: Heb. yesterday} {with the: Heb. over against a}
The womenH802 of my peopleH5971 have ye cast outH1644 from their pleasantH8588 housesH1004; from their childrenH5768 have ye taken awayH3947 my gloryH1926 for everH5769. {women: or, wives}
AriseH6965 ye, and departH3212; for this is not your restH4496: because it is pollutedH2930, it shall destroyH2254 you, even with a soreH4834 destructionH2256.

ThinkG3543 notG3361 thatG3754 I am comeG2064 to sendG906 peaceG1515 onG1909 earthG1093: I cameG2064 notG3756 to sendG906 peaceG1515, butG235 a swordG3162.
ForG1063 I am comeG2064 to setG1369 a manG444 at varianceG1369 againstG2596 hisG846 fatherG3962, andG2532 the daughterG2364 againstG2596 herG846 motherG3384, andG2532 the daughter in lawG3565 againstG2596 herG846 mother in lawG3994.
AndG2532 a man'sG444 foesG2190 shall be they of his ownG846 householdG3615.
WhereforeG1223+G5124, beholdG2400, IG1473 sendG649 untoG4314 youG5209 prophetsG4396, andG2532 wise menG4680, andG2532 scribesG1122: andG2532 some ofG1537 themG846 ye shall killG615 andG2532 crucifyG4717; andG2532 some ofG1537 themG846 shall ye scourgeG3146 inG1722 yourG5216 synagoguesG4864, andG2532 persecuteG1377 them fromG575 cityG4172 toG1519 cityG4172:
ThatG3704 uponG1909 youG5209 may comeG2064 allG3956 the righteousG1342 bloodG129 shedG1632 uponG1909 the earthG1093, fromG575 the bloodG129 of righteousG1342 AbelG6 untoG2193 the bloodG129 of ZachariasG2197 sonG5207 of BarachiasG914, whomG3739 ye slewG5407 betweenG3342 the templeG3485 andG2532 the altarG2379.
VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, AllG3956 these thingsG5023 shall comeG2240 uponG1909 thisG5026 generationG1074.
O JerusalemG2419, JerusalemG2419, thou that killestG615 the prophetsG4396, andG2532 stonestG3036 them which are sentG649 untoG4314 theeG846, how oftenG4212 would IG2309 have gatheredG1996 thyG4675+G3739 childrenG5043 togetherG1996, even asG5158 a henG3733 gatherethG1996 herG1438 chickensG3556 underG5259 her wingsG4420, andG2532 ye wouldG2309 notG3756!
AndG1161 he saidG2036, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213+G3754, NoG3762 prophetG4396 isG2076 acceptedG1184 inG1722 his ownG846 countryG3968.
NeverthelessG4133 IG3165 mustG1163 walkG4198 to dayG4594, andG2532 to morrowG839, andG2532 the day followingG2192: forG3754 it cannot beG3756+G1735 that a prophetG4396 perishG622 out ofG1854 JerusalemG2419.
O JerusalemG2419, JerusalemG2419, whichG3588 killestG615 the prophetsG4396, andG2532 stonestG3036 them that are sentG649 untoG4314 theeG846; how oftenG4212 wouldG2309 I have gatheredG1996 thyG4675 childrenG5043 togetherG1996, asG3739+G5158 a henG3733 doth gather herG1438 broodG3555 underG5259 her wingsG4420, andG2532 ye wouldG2309 notG3756!
