Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, GoH1980 and getH7069 a potter'sH3335 earthenH2789 bottleH1228, and take of the ancientsH2205 of the peopleH5971, and of the ancientsH2205 of the priestsH3548;
And go forthH3318 unto the valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, which is by the entryH6607 of the eastH2777 gateH8179, and proclaimH7121 there the wordsH1697 that I shall tellH1696 thee, {the east…: Heb. the sun gate}
And sayH559, HearH8085 ye the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, O kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, and inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389; Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon this placeH4725, the which whosoever hearethH8085, his earsH241 shall tingleH6750.
Because they have forsakenH5800 me, and have estrangedH5234 this placeH4725, and have burned incenseH6999 in it unto otherH312 godsH430, whom neither they nor their fathersH1 have knownH3045, nor the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, and have filledH4390 this placeH4725 with the bloodH1818 of innocentsH5355;
They have builtH1129 also the high placesH1116 of BaalH1168, to burnH8313 their sonsH1121 with fireH784 for burnt offeringsH5930 unto BaalH1168, which I commandedH6680 not, nor spakeH1696 it, neither cameH5927 it into my mindH3820:
Therefore, behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that this placeH4725 shall no more be calledH7121 TophetH8612, nor The valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, but The valleyH1516 of slaughterH2028.
And I will make voidH1238 the counselH6098 of JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389 in this placeH4725; and I will cause them to fallH5307 by the swordH2719 beforeH6440 their enemiesH341, and by the handsH3027 of them that seekH1245 their livesH5315: and their carcasesH5038 will I giveH5414 to be meatH3978 for the fowlsH5775 of the heavenH8064, and for the beastsH929 of the earthH776.
And I will makeH7760 this cityH5892 desolateH8047, and an hissingH8322; every one that passethH5674 thereby shall be astonishedH8074 and hissH8319 because of all the plaguesH4347 thereof.
And I will cause them to eatH398 the fleshH1320 of their sonsH1121 and the fleshH1320 of their daughtersH1323, and they shall eatH398 every oneH376 the fleshH1320 of his friendH7453 in the siegeH4692 and straitnessH4689, wherewith their enemiesH341, and they that seekH1245 their livesH5315, shall straitenH6693 them.
Then shalt thou breakH7665 the bottleH1228 in the sightH5869 of the menH582 that goH1980 with thee,
And shalt sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; Even soH3602 will I breakH7665 this peopleH5971 and this cityH5892, as one breakethH7665 a potter'sH3335 vesselH3627, that cannotH3201 be made whole againH7495: and they shall buryH6912 them in TophetH8612, till there be no placeH4725 to buryH6912. {be made…: Heb. be healed}
Thus will I doH6213 unto this placeH4725, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and to the inhabitantsH3427 thereof, and even makeH5414 this cityH5892 as TophetH8612:
And the housesH1004 of JerusalemH3389, and the housesH1004 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, shall be defiledH2931 as the placeH4725 of TophetH8612, because of all the housesH1004 upon whose roofsH1406 they have burned incenseH6999 unto all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064, and have poured outH5258 drink offeringsH5262 unto otherH312 godsH430.
Then cameH935 JeremiahH3414 from TophetH8612, whither the LORDH3068 had sentH7971 him to prophesyH5012; and he stoodH5975 in the courtH2691 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004; and saidH559 to all the peopleH5971,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will bringH935 upon this cityH5892 and upon all her townsH5892 all the evilH7451 that I have pronouncedH1696 against it, because they have hardenedH7185 their necksH6203, that they might not hearH8085 my wordsH1697.

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.
Because the sonsH1121 of JonadabH3082 the sonH1121 of RechabH7394 have performedH6965 the commandmentH4687 of their fatherH1, which he commandedH6680 them; but this peopleH5971 hath not hearkenedH8085 unto me:
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will bringH935 upon JudahH3063 and upon all the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 all the evilH7451 that I have pronouncedH1696 against them: because I have spokenH1696 unto them, but they have not heardH8085; and I have calledH7121 unto them, but they have not answeredH6030.
But they mockedH3931 the messengersH4397 of GodH430, and despisedH959 his wordsH1697, and misusedH8591 his prophetsH5030, until the wrathH2534 of the LORDH3068 aroseH5927 against his peopleH5971, till there was no remedyH4832. {remedy: Heb. healing}

And refusedH3985 to obeyH8085, neither were mindfulH2142 of thy wondersH6381 that thou didstH6213 among them; but hardenedH7185 their necksH6203, and in their rebellionH4805 appointedH5414 a captainH7218 to returnH7725 to their bondageH5659: but thou art a GodH433 ready to pardonH5547, graciousH2587 and mercifulH7349, slowH750 to angerH639, and of greatH7227 kindnessH2617, and forsookestH5800 them not. {a God…: Heb. a God of pardons}
And testifiedstH5749 against them, that thou mightest bring them againH7725 unto thy lawH8451: yet they dealt proudlyH2102, and hearkenedH8085 not unto thy commandmentsH4687, but sinnedH2398 against thy judgmentsH4941, (which if a manH120 doH6213, he shall liveH2421 in them;) and withdrewH5414+H5637 the shoulderH3802, and hardenedH7185 their neckH6203, and would not hearH8085. {withdrew…: Heb. they gave a withdrawing shoulder}

But I scattered them with a whirlwindH5590 among all the nationsH1471 whom they knewH3045 not. Thus the landH776 was desolateH8074 afterH310 them, that no man passed throughH5674 nor returnedH7725: for they laidH7760 the pleasantH2532 landH776 desolateH8047. {pleasant…: Heb. land of desire}
