Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Go downH3381 to the houseH1004 of the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and speakH1696 there this wordH1697,
And sayH559, HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, O kingH4428 of JudahH3063, that sittestH3427 upon the throneH3678 of DavidH1732, thou, and thy servantsH5650, and thy peopleH5971 that enterH935 in by these gatesH8179:
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; ExecuteH6213 ye judgmentH4941 and righteousnessH6666, and deliverH5337 the spoiledH1497 out of the handH3027 of the oppressorH6216: and do no wrongH3238, do no violenceH2554 to the strangerH1616, the fatherlessH3490, nor the widowH490, neither shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818 in this placeH4725.
For if ye doH6213 this thingH1697 indeedH6213, then shall there enter inH935 by the gatesH8179 of this houseH1004 kingsH4428 sittingH3427 upon the throneH3678 of DavidH1732, ridingH7392 in chariotsH7393 and on horsesH5483, he, and his servantsH5650, and his peopleH5971. {upon…: Heb. for David upon his throne}
But if ye will not hearH8085 these wordsH1697, I swearH7650 by myself, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that this houseH1004 shall become a desolationH2723.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 unto the king'sH4428 houseH1004 of JudahH3063; Thou art GileadH1568 unto me, and the headH7218 of LebanonH3844: yet surely I will makeH7896 thee a wildernessH4057, and citiesH5892 which are not inhabitedH3427+H3427.
And I will prepareH6942 destroyersH7843 against thee, every oneH376 with his weaponsH3627: and they shall cut downH3772 thy choiceH4005 cedarsH730, and castH5307 them into the fireH784.
And manyH7227 nationsH1471 shall passH5674 by this cityH5892, and they shall sayH559 every manH376 to his neighbourH7453, Wherefore hath the LORDH3068 doneH6213 thus unto this greatH1419 cityH5892?
Then they shall answerH559, Because they have forsakenH5800 the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 their GodH430, and worshippedH7812 otherH312 godsH430, and servedH5647 them.
WeepH1058 ye not for the deadH4191, neither bemoanH5110 him: but weepH1058 soreH1058 for him that goeth awayH1980: for he shall returnH7725 no more, nor seeH7200 his nativeH4138 countryH776.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 touchingH413 ShallumH7967 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, which reignedH4427 instead of JosiahH2977 his fatherH1, which went forthH3318 out of this placeH4725; He shall not returnH7725 thither any more:
But he shall dieH4191 in the placeH4725 whither they have led him captiveH1540, and shall seeH7200 this landH776 no more.
WoeH1945 unto him that buildethH1129 his houseH1004 byH3808 unrighteousnessH6664, and his chambersH5944 by wrongH4941; that useth his neighbour'sH7453 serviceH5647 without wagesH2600, and givethH5414 him not for his workH6467;
That saithH559, I will buildH1129 me a wideH4060 houseH1004 and largeH7304 chambersH5944, and cutteth him outH7167 windowsH2474; and it is cieledH5603 with cedarH730, and paintedH4886 with vermilionH8350. {large: Heb. through-aired} {windows: or, my windows}
Shalt thou reignH4427, because thou closestH8474 thyself in cedarH730? did not thy fatherH1 eatH398 and drinkH8354, and doH6213 judgmentH4941 and justiceH6666, and then it was wellH2896 with him?
He judgedH1777 the causeH1779 of the poorH6041 and needyH34; then it was wellH2896 with him: was not this to knowH1847 me? saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
But thine eyesH5869 and thine heartH3820 are not but for thy covetousnessH1215, and for to shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818, and for oppressionH6233, and for violenceH4835, to doH6213 it. {violence: or, incursion}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 concerning JehoiakimH3079 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 kingH4428 of JudahH3063; They shall not lamentH5594 for him, saying, AhH1945 my brotherH251! or, AhH1945 sisterH269! they shall not lamentH5594 for him, saying, AhH1945 lordH113! or, AhH1945 his gloryH1935!
He shall be buriedH6912 with the burialH6900 of an assH2543, drawnH5498 and cast forthH7993 beyondH1973 the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389.
Go upH5927 to LebanonH3844, and cryH6817; and lift upH5414 thy voiceH6963 in BashanH1316, and cryH6817 from the passagesH5676: for all thy loversH157 are destroyedH7665.
I spakeH1696 unto thee in thy prosperityH7962; but thou saidstH559, I will not hearH8085. This hath been thy mannerH1870 from thy youthH5271, that thou obeyedstH8085 not my voiceH6963. {prosperity: Heb. prosperities}
The windH7307 shall eat upH7462 all thy pastorsH7462, and thy loversH157 shall goH3212 into captivityH7628: surely then shalt thou be ashamedH954 and confoundedH3637 for all thy wickednessH7451.
O inhabitantH3427 of LebanonH3844, that makest thy nestH7077 in the cedarsH730, how graciousH2603 shalt thou be when pangsH2256 comeH935 upon thee, the painH2427 as of a woman in travailH3205! {inhabitant: Heb. inhabitress}
As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, though ConiahH3659 the sonH1121 of JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 were the signetH2368 upon my rightH3225 handH3027, yet would I pluckH5423 thee thence;
And I will giveH5414 thee into the handH3027 of them that seekH1245 thy lifeH5315, and into the handH3027 of them whose faceH6440 thou fearestH3016, even into the handH3027 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and into the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778.
And I will cast thee outH2904, and thy motherH517 that bareH3205 thee, into anotherH312 countryH776, where ye were not bornH3205; and there shall ye dieH4191.
But to the landH776 whereunto they desireH5375+H5315 to returnH7725, thither shall they not returnH7725. {desire: Heb. lift up their mind}
Is this manH376 ConiahH3659 a despisedH959 brokenH5310 idolH6089? is he a vesselH3627 wherein is no pleasureH2656? wherefore are they cast outH7993, he and his seedH2233, and are castH2904 into a landH776 which they knowH3045 not?
O earthH776, earthH776, earthH776, hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, WriteH3789 ye this manH376 childlessH6185, a manH1397 that shall not prosperH6743 in his daysH3117: for no manH376 of his seedH2233 shall prosperH6743, sittingH3427 upon the throneH3678 of DavidH1732, and rulingH4910 any more in JudahH3063.

Why gaddest thou aboutH235 so muchH3966 to changeH8138 thy wayH1870? thou also shalt be ashamedH954 of EgyptH4714, as thou wast ashamedH954 of AssyriaH804.
The windH7307 shall eat upH7462 all thy pastorsH7462, and thy loversH157 shall goH3212 into captivityH7628: surely then shalt thou be ashamedH954 and confoundedH3637 for all thy wickednessH7451.
Yea, thou shalt go forthH3318 from him, and thine handsH3027 upon thine headH7218: for the LORDH3068 hath rejectedH3988 thy confidencesH4009, and thou shalt not prosperH6743 in them.
And when thou art spoiledH7703, what wilt thou doH6213? Though thou clothestH3847 thyself with crimsonH8144, though thou deckestH5710 thee with ornamentsH5716 of goldH2091, though thou rentestH7167 thy faceH5869 with paintingH6320, in vainH7723 shalt thou make thyself fairH3302; thy loversH5689 will despiseH3988 thee, they will seekH1245 thy lifeH5315. {face: Heb. eyes}
There is none to pleadH1777 thy causeH1779, that thou mayest be bound upH4205: thou hast no healingH8585 medicinesH7499. {that…: Heb. for binding up, or, pressing}
All thy loversH157 have forgottenH7911 thee; they seekH1875 thee not; for I have woundedH5221 thee with the woundH4347 of an enemyH341, with the chastisementH4148 of a cruel oneH394, for the multitudeH7230 of thine iniquityH5771; because thy sinsH2403 were increasedH6105.
Why criestH2199 thou for thine afflictionH7667? thy sorrowH4341 is incurableH605 for the multitudeH7230 of thine iniquityH5771: because thy sinsH2403 were increasedH6105, I have doneH6213 these things unto thee.
Behold, I will sendH7971 and takeH3947 all the familiesH4940 of the northH6828, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and NebuchadrezzarH5019 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, my servantH5650, and will bringH935 them against this landH776, and against the inhabitantsH3427 thereof, and against all these nationsH1471 round aboutH5439, and will utterly destroyH2763 them, and makeH7760 them an astonishmentH8047, and an hissingH8322, and perpetualH5769 desolationsH2723.
And the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 cameH3318 not againH3254 any more out of his landH776: for the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had takenH3947 from the riverH5158 of EgyptH4714 unto the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578 all that pertained to the kingH4428 of EgyptH4714.
Then tookH3947 I the cupH3563 at the LORD'SH3068 handH3027, and made all the nationsH1471 to drinkH8248, unto whom the LORDH3068 had sentH7971 me:
To wit, JerusalemH3389, and the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and the kingsH4428 thereof, and the princesH8269 thereof, to makeH5414 them a desolationH2723, an astonishmentH8047, an hissingH8322, and a curseH7045; as it is this dayH3117;
PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and his servantsH5650, and his princesH8269, and all his peopleH5971;
And all the mingledH6154 people, and all the kingsH4428 of the landH776 of UzH5780, and all the kingsH4428 of the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430, and AshkelonH831, and AzzahH5804, and EkronH6138, and the remnantH7611 of AshdodH795,
EdomH123, and MoabH4124, and the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983,
And all the kingsH4428 of TyrusH6865, and all the kingsH4428 of ZidonH6721, and the kingsH4428 of the islesH339 which are beyondH5676 the seaH3220, {isles: or, region by the sea side}
DedanH1719, and TemaH8485, and BuzH938, and all that are in the utmostH7112 cornersH6285, {that…: Heb. cut off into corners, or, having the corners of the hair polled}
And all the kingsH4428 of ArabiaH6152, and all the kingsH4428 of the mingled peopleH6154 that dwellH7931 in the desertH4057,
And all the kingsH4428 of ZimriH2174, and all the kingsH4428 of ElamH5867, and all the kingsH4428 of the MedesH4074,
And all the kingsH4428 of the northH6828, farH7350 and nearH7138, oneH376 with anotherH251, and all the kingdomsH4467 of the worldH776, which are upon the faceH6440 of the earthH127: and the kingH4428 of SheshachH8347 shall drinkH8354 afterH310 them.
Therefore thou shalt sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; DrinkH8354 ye, and be drunkenH7937, and spueH7006, and fallH5307, and riseH6965 no more, becauseH6440 of the swordH2719 which I will sendH7971 among you.
And they shall be afraidH2865 and ashamedH954 of EthiopiaH3568 their expectationH4007, and of EgyptH4714 their gloryH8597.
She weepethH1058 soreH1058 in the nightH3915, and her tearsH1832 are on her cheeksH3895: among all her loversH157 she hath none to comfortH5162 her: all her friendsH7453 have dealt treacherouslyH898 with her, they are become her enemiesH341.
And the inhabitantH3427 of this isleH339 shall sayH559 in that dayH3117, Behold, suchH3541 is our expectationH4007, whither we fleeH5127 for helpH5833 to be deliveredH5337 fromH6440 the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804: and how shall we escapeH4422? {isle: or, country}
I calledH7121 for my loversH157, but they deceivedH7411 me: my priestsH3548 and mine eldersH2205 gave up the ghostH1478 in the cityH5892, while they soughtH1245 their meatH400 to relieveH7725 their soulsH5315.
WoeH1945 to the rebelliousH5637 childrenH1121, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that takeH6213 counselH6098, but not of me; and that coverH5258 with a coveringH4541, but not of my spiritH7307, that they may addH5595 sinH2403 to sinH2403:
That walkH1980 to go downH3381 into EgyptH4714, and have not askedH7592 at my mouthH6310; to strengthenH5810 themselves in the strengthH4581 of PharaohH6547, and to trustH2620 in the shadowH6738 of EgyptH4714!
Therefore shall the strengthH4581 of PharaohH6547 be your shameH1322, and the trustH2622 in the shadowH6738 of EgyptH4714 your confusionH3639.
For his princesH8269 were at ZoanH6814, and his ambassadorsH4397 cameH5060 to HanesH2609.
They were all ashamedH3001 of a peopleH5971 that could not profitH3276 them, nor be an helpH5828 nor profitH3276, but a shameH1322, and also a reproachH2781.
The burdenH4853 of the beastsH929 of the southH5045: into the landH776 of troubleH6869 and anguishH6695, from whence come the youngH3833 and old lionH3918, the viperH660 and fieryH8314 flyingH5774 serpentH8314, they will carryH5375 their richesH2428 upon the shouldersH3802 of young assesH5895, and their treasuresH214 upon the bunchesH1707 of camelsH1581, to a peopleH5971 that shall not profitH3276 them.
For the EgyptiansH4714 shall helpH5826 in vainH1892, and to no purposeH7385: therefore have I criedH7121 concerning thisH2063, TheirH1992 strengthH7293 is to sit stillH7674. {concerning…: or, to her}
Wherefore I have deliveredH5414 her into the handH3027 of her loversH157, into the handH3027 of the AssyriansH1121+H804, upon whom she dotedH5689.
WoeH1945 to them that go downH3381 to EgyptH4714 for helpH5833; and stayH8172 on horsesH5483, and trustH982 in chariotsH7393, because they are manyH7227; and in horsemenH6571, because they are veryH3966 strongH6105; but they lookH8159 not unto the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478, neither seekH1875 the LORDH3068!
Yet he also is wiseH2450, and will bringH935 evilH7451, and will not call backH5493 his wordsH1697: but will ariseH6965 against the houseH1004 of the evildoersH7489, and against the helpH5833 of them that workH6466 iniquityH205. {call…: Heb. remove}
Now the EgyptiansH4714 are menH120, and not GodH410; and their horsesH5483 fleshH1320, and not spiritH7307. When the LORDH3068 shall stretch outH5186 his handH3027, both he that helpethH5826 shall fallH3782, and he that is holpenH5826 shall fall downH5307, and they all shall failH3615 togetherH3162.
