WoeH1945 be unto the pastorsH7462 that destroyH6 and scatterH6327 the sheepH6629 of my pastureH4830! saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 against the pastorsH7462 that feedH7462 my peopleH5971; Ye have scatteredH6327 my flockH6629, and driven them awayH5080, and have not visitedH6485 them: behold, I will visitH6485 upon you the evilH7455 of your doingsH4611, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
And I will gatherH6908 the remnantH7611 of my flockH6629 out of all countriesH776 whither I have drivenH5080 them, and will bring them againH7725 to their foldsH5116; and they shall be fruitfulH6509 and increaseH7235.
And I will set upH6965 shepherdsH7462 over them which shall feedH7462 them: and they shall fearH3372 no more, nor be dismayedH2865, neither shall they be lackingH6485, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that I will raiseH6965 unto DavidH1732 a righteousH6662 BranchH6780, and a KingH4428 shall reignH4427 and prosperH7919, and shall executeH6213 judgmentH4941 and justiceH6666 in the earthH776.
In his daysH3117 JudahH3063 shall be savedH3467, and IsraelH3478 shall dwellH7931 safelyH983: and this is his nameH8034 whereby he shall be calledH7121, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESSH3072. {THE LORD…: Heb. Jehovahtsidkenu}
Therefore, behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that they shall no more sayH559, The LORDH3068 livethH2416, which brought upH5927 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714;
But, The LORDH3068 livethH2416, which brought upH5927 and which ledH935 the seedH2233 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 out of the northH6828 countryH776, and from all countriesH776 whither I had drivenH5080 them; and they shall dwellH3427 in their own landH127.
Mine heartH3820 withinH7130 me is brokenH7665 because of the prophetsH5030; all my bonesH6106 shakeH7363; I am like a drunkenH7910 manH376, and like a manH1397 whom wineH3196 hath overcomeH5674, becauseH6440 of the LORDH3068, and because of the wordsH1697 of his holinessH6944.
For the landH776 is fullH4390 of adulterersH5003; for becauseH6440 of swearingH423 the landH776 mournethH56; the pleasant placesH4999 of the wildernessH4057 are dried upH3001, and their courseH4794 is evilH7451, and their forceH1369 is not right. {swearing: or, cursing} {course: or, violence}
For both prophetH5030 and priestH3548 are profaneH2610; yea, in my houseH1004 have I foundH4672 their wickednessH7451, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Wherefore their wayH1870 shall be unto them as slipperyH2519 ways in the darknessH653: they shall be driven onH1760, and fallH5307 therein: for I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon them, even the yearH8141 of their visitationH6486, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
And I have seenH7200 follyH8604 in the prophetsH5030 of SamariaH8111; they prophesiedH5012 in BaalH1168, and caused my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 to errH8582. {folly: or, an absurd thing: Heb. unsavoury}
I have seenH7200 also in the prophetsH5030 of JerusalemH3389 an horrible thingH8186: they commit adulteryH5003, and walkH1980 in liesH8267: they strengthenH2388 also the handsH3027 of evildoersH7489, that noneH376 doth returnH7725 from his wickednessH7451: they are all of them unto me as SodomH5467, and the inhabitantsH3427 thereof as GomorrahH6017. {an…: or, filthiness}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 concerning the prophetsH5030; Behold, I will feedH398 them with wormwoodH3939, and make them drinkH8248 the waterH4325 of gallH7219: for from the prophetsH5030 of JerusalemH3389 is profanenessH2613 gone forthH3318 into all the landH776. {profaneness: or, hypocrisy}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, HearkenH8085 not unto the wordsH1697 of the prophetsH5030 that prophesyH5012 unto you: they make you vainH1891: they speakH1696 a visionH2377 of their own heartH3820, and not out of the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068.
They sayH559 stillH559 unto them that despiseH5006 me, The LORDH3068 hath saidH1696, Ye shall have peaceH7965; and they sayH559 unto every one that walkethH1980 after the imaginationH8307 of his own heartH3820, No evilH7451 shall comeH935 upon you. {imagination: or, stubbornness}
For who hath stoodH5975 in the counselH5475 of the LORDH3068, and hath perceivedH7200 and heardH8085 his wordH1697? who hath markedH7181 his wordH1697, and heardH8085 it? {counsel: or, secret}
Behold, a whirlwindH5591 of the LORDH3068 is gone forthH3318 in furyH2534, even a grievousH2342 whirlwindH5591: it shall fall grievouslyH2342 upon the headH7218 of the wickedH7563.
The angerH639 of the LORDH3068 shall not returnH7725, until he have executedH6213, and till he have performedH6965 the thoughtsH4209 of his heartH3820: in the latterH319 daysH3117 ye shall considerH995 it perfectlyH998.
I have not sentH7971 these prophetsH5030, yet they ranH7323: I have not spokenH1696 to them, yet they prophesiedH5012.
But if they had stoodH5975 in my counselH5475, and had caused my peopleH5971 to hearH8085 my wordsH1697, then they should have turnedH7725 them from their evilH7451 wayH1870, and from the evilH7455 of their doingsH4611.
Am I a GodH430 at handH7138, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and not a GodH430 afar offH7350?
Can anyH376 hideH5641 himself in secret placesH4565 that I shall not seeH7200 him? saithH5002 the LORDH3068. Do not I fillH4392 heavenH8064 and earthH776? saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
I have heardH8085 what the prophetsH5030 saidH559, that prophesyH5012 liesH8267 in my nameH8034, sayingH559, I have dreamedH2492, I have dreamedH2492.
How long shall this beH3426 in the heartH3820 of the prophetsH5030 that prophesyH5012 liesH8267? yea, they are prophetsH5030 of the deceitH8649 of their own heartH3820;
Which thinkH2803 to cause my peopleH5971 to forgetH7911 my nameH8034 by their dreamsH2472 which they tellH5608 every manH376 to his neighbourH7453, as their fathersH1 have forgottenH7911 my nameH8034 for BaalH1168.
The prophetH5030 that hath a dreamH2472, let him tellH5608 a dreamH2472; and he that hath my wordH1697, let him speakH1696 my wordH1697 faithfullyH571. What is the chaffH8401 to the wheatH1250? saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {that hath a dream: Heb. with whom is, etc}
Is not my wordH1697 likeH3541 as a fireH784? saithH5002 the LORDH3068; and like a hammerH6360 that breakethH6327 the rockH5553 in piecesH6327?
Therefore, behold, I am against the prophetsH5030, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that stealH1589 my wordsH1697 every oneH376 from his neighbourH7453.
Behold, I am against the prophetsH5030, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that useH3947 their tonguesH3956, and sayH5001, He saithH5002. {that…: or, that smooth their tongues}
Behold, I am against them that prophesyH5012 falseH8267 dreamsH2472, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and do tellH5608 them, and cause my peopleH5971 to errH8582 by their liesH8267, and by their lightnessH6350; yet I sentH7971 them not, nor commandedH6680 them: therefore they shall not profitH3276 this peopleH5971 at allH3276, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
And when this peopleH5971, or the prophetH5030, or a priestH3548, shall askH7592 thee, sayingH559, What is the burdenH4853 of the LORDH3068? thou shalt then sayH559 unto them, What burdenH4853? I will even forsakeH5203 you, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
And as for the prophetH5030, and the priestH3548, and the peopleH5971, that shall sayH559, The burdenH4853 of the LORDH3068, I will even punishH6485 that manH376 and his houseH1004. {punish: Heb. visit upon}
Thus shall ye sayH559 every oneH376 to his neighbourH7453, and every oneH376 to his brotherH251, What hath the LORDH3068 answeredH6030? and, What hath the LORDH3068 spokenH1696?
And the burdenH4853 of the LORDH3068 shall ye mentionH2142 no more: for every man'sH376 wordH1697 shall be his burdenH4853; for ye have pervertedH2015 the wordsH1697 of the livingH2416 GodH430, of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 our GodH430.
Thus shalt thou sayH559 to the prophetH5030, What hath the LORDH3068 answeredH6030 thee? and, What hath the LORDH3068 spokenH1696?
ButH518 since ye sayH559, The burdenH4853 of the LORDH3068; therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Because ye sayH559 this wordH1697, The burdenH4853 of the LORDH3068, and I have sentH7971 unto you, sayingH559, Ye shall not sayH559, The burdenH4853 of the LORDH3068;
Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterlyH5377 forgetH5382 you, and I will forsakeH5203 you, and the cityH5892 that I gaveH5414 you and your fathersH1, and cast you out of my presenceH6440:
And I will bringH5414 an everlastingH5769 reproachH2781 upon you, and a perpetualH5769 shameH3640, which shall not be forgottenH7911.

TurnH7725, O backslidingH7726 childrenH1121, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; for I am marriedH1166 unto you: and I will takeH3947 you oneH259 of a cityH5892, and twoH8147 of a familyH4940, and I will bringH935 you to ZionH6726:
And they saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Thy servantsH5650 have takenH5375 the sumH7218 of the menH582 of warH4421 which are under our chargeH3027, and there lackethH6485 not one manH376 of us. {charge: Heb. hand}
And I will giveH5414 you pastorsH7462 according to mine heartH3820, which shall feedH7462 you with knowledgeH1844 and understandingH7919.
AndG1161 thisG5124 isG2076 the Father'sG3962 willG2307 whichG3588 hath sentG3992 meG3165, thatG2443 of allG3956 whichG3739 he hath givenG1325 meG3427 I should loseG622 nothingG3361+G1537+G846, butG235 should raiseG450 itG846 up againG450 atG1722 the lastG2078 dayG2250.
ThenH1571 will I cast awayH3988 the seedH2233 of JacobH3290, and DavidH1732 my servantH5650, so that I will not takeH3947 any of his seedH2233 to be rulersH4910 over the seedH2233 of AbrahamH85, IsaacH3446, and JacobH3290: for I will cause their captivityH7622 to returnH7725+H7725, and have mercyH7355 on them.
AndG1161 thisG5124 isG2076 the willG2307 of him that sentG3992 meG3165, thatG2443 every oneG3956 whichG3588 seethG2334 the SonG5207, andG2532 believethG4100 onG1519 himG846, may haveG2192 everlastingG166 lifeG2222: andG2532 IG1473 will raiseG450 himG846 upG450 at the lastG2078 dayG2250.
He choseH977 DavidH1732 also his servantH5650, and tookH3947 him from the sheepfoldsH4356+H6629:
From followingH310 the ewes great with youngH5763 he broughtH935 him to feedH7462 JacobH3290 his peopleH5971, and IsraelH3478 his inheritanceH5159. {following: Heb. after}
So he fedH7462 them according to the integrityH8537 of his heartH3824; and guidedH5148 them by the skilfulnessH8394 of his handsH3709.
MyG1699 sheepG4263 hearG191 myG3450 voiceG5456, and IG2504 knowG1097 themG846, andG2532 they followG190 meG3427:
And IG2504 giveG1325 unto themG846 eternalG166 lifeG2222; andG2532 they shallG622 neverG3364+G1519+G165 perishG622, neitherG2532+G3756 shallG726 anyG5100 man pluckG726 themG846 out ofG1537 myG3450 handG5495.
MyG3450 FatherG3962, whichG3739 gaveG1325 them meG3427, isG2076 greater thanG3187 allG3956; andG2532 noG3762 man is ableG1410 to pluckG726 them out ofG1537 myG3450 Father'sG3962 handG5495.
And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that the LordH136 shall setH3254 his handH3027 againH3254 the second timeH8145 to recoverH7069 the remnantH7605 of his peopleH5971, which shall be leftH7604, from AssyriaH804, and from EgyptH4714, and from PathrosH6624, and from CushH3568, and from ElamH5867, and from ShinarH8152, and from HamathH2574, and from the islandsH339 of the seaH3220.
WhileG3753 I wasG2252 withG3326 themG846 inG1722 the worldG2889, IG1473 keptG5083 themG846 inG1722 thyG4675 nameG3686: those thatG3739 thou gavestG1325 meG3427 I have keptG5442, andG2532 noneG3762 ofG1537 themG846 is lostG622, butG1508 the sonG5207 of perditionG684; thatG2443 the scriptureG1124 might be fulfilledG4137.
And I will set upH6965 oneH259 shepherdH7462 over them, and he shall feedH7462 them, even my servantH5650 DavidH1732; he shall feedH7462 them, and he shall be their shepherdH7462.
And I the LORDH3068 will be their GodH430, and my servantH5650 DavidH1732 a princeH5387 amongH8432 them; I the LORDH3068 have spokenH1696 it.
And I will makeH3772 with them a covenantH1285 of peaceH7965, and will cause the evilH7451 beastsH2416 to ceaseH7673 out of the landH776: and they shall dwellH3427 safelyH983 in the wildernessH4057, and sleepH3462 in the woodsH3293+H3264.
And I will makeH5414 them and the places round aboutH5439 my hillH1389 a blessingH1293; and I will cause the showerH1653 to come downH3381 in his seasonH6256; there shall be showersH1653 of blessingH1293.
And the treeH6086 of the fieldH7704 shall yieldH5414 her fruitH6529, and the earthH776 shall yieldH5414 her increaseH2981, and they shall be safeH983 in their landH127, and shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, when I have brokenH7665 the bandsH4133 of their yokeH5923, and deliveredH5337 them out of the handH3027 of those that servedH5647 themselves of them.
And they shall no more be a preyH957 to the heathenH1471, neither shall the beastH2416 of the landH776 devourH398 them; but they shall dwellH3427 safelyH983, and none shall make them afraidH2729.
And I will raise upH6965 for them a plantH4302 of renownH8034, and they shall be no more consumedH622 with hungerH7458 in the landH776, neither bearH5375 the shameH3639 of the heathenH1471 any more. {of renown: or, for renown} {consumed: Heb. taken away}
Thus shall they knowH3045 that I the LORDH3068 their GodH430 am with them, and that they, even the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, are my peopleH5971, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
And yeH859 my flockH6629, the flockH6629 of my pastureH4830, are menH120, and I am your GodH430, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
ThatG2443 the sayingG3056 might be fulfilledG4137, whichG3739 he spakeG2036+G3754, OfG1537 themG846 whichG3739 thou gavestG1325 meG3427 have IG3756 lostG622 noneG3762.
And I saidH559 unto her, Thou shalt abideH3427 for me manyH7227 daysH3117; thou shalt not play the harlotH2181, and thou shalt not beH1961 for another manH376: so will I also be for thee.
For the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 shall abideH3427 manyH7227 daysH3117 without a kingH4428, and without a princeH8269, and without a sacrificeH2077, and without an imageH4676, and without an ephodH646, and without teraphimH8655: {image: Heb. a standing, or, statue, or, pillar}
AfterwardH310 shall the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 returnH7725, and seekH1245 the LORDH3068 their GodH430, and DavidH1732 their kingH4428; and shall fearH6342 the LORDH3068 and his goodnessH2898 in the latterH319 daysH3117.
WhoG3588 are keptG5432 byG1722 the powerG1411 of GodG2316 throughG1223 faithG4102 untoG1519 salvationG4991 readyG2092 to be revealedG601 inG1722 the lastG2078 timeG2540.
But thou, BethlehemH1035 EphratahH672, though thou be littleH6810 among the thousandsH505 of JudahH3063, yet out of thee shall he come forthH3318 unto me that is to be rulerH4910 in IsraelH3478; whose goings forthH4163 have been from of oldH6924, from everlastingH3117+H5769. {everlasting: Heb. the days of eternity}
And he shall standH5975 and feedH7462 in the strengthH5797 of the LORDH3068, in the majestyH1347 of the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 his GodH430; and they shall abideH3427: for now shall he be greatH1431 unto the endsH657 of the earthH776. {feed or, rule}
And this man shall be the peaceH7965, when the AssyrianH804 shall comeH935 into our landH776: and when he shall treadH1869 in our palacesH759, then shall we raiseH6965 against him sevenH7651 shepherdsH7462, and eightH8083 principalH5257 menH120. {principal: Heb. princes of}
FeedH7462 thy peopleH5971 with thy rodH7626, the flockH6629 of thine heritageH5159, which dwellH7931 solitarilyH910 in the woodH3293, in the midstH8432 of CarmelH3760: let them feedH7462 in BashanH1316 and GileadH1568, as in the daysH3117 of oldH5769. {Feed: or, Rule}
SoG3767 whenG3753 they had dinedG709, JesusG2424 saithG3004 to SimonG4613 PeterG4074, SimonG4613, son of JonasG2495, lovest thouG25 meG3165 more thanG4119 theseG5130? He saithG3004 unto himG846, YeaG3483, LordG2962; thouG4771 knowestG1492 thatG3754 I loveG5368 theeG4571. He saithG3004 unto himG846, FeedG1006 myG3450 lambsG721.
He saithG3004 to himG846 againG3825 the second timeG1208, SimonG4613, son of JonasG2495, lovest thouG25 meG3165? He saithG3004 unto himG846, YeaG3483, LordG2962; thouG4771 knowestG1492 thatG3754 I loveG5368 theeG4571. He saithG3004 unto himG846, FeedG4165 myG3450 sheepG4263.
He saithG3004 unto himG846 the thirdG5154 time, SimonG4613, son of JonasG2495, lovestG5368 thou meG3165? PeterG4074 was grievedG3076 becauseG3754 he saidG2036 unto himG846 the thirdG5154 time, LovestG5368 thou meG3165? AndG2532 he saidG2036 unto himG846, LordG2962, thouG4771 knowestG1492 all thingsG3956; thouG4771 knowestG1097 thatG3754 I loveG5368 theeG4571. JesusG2424 saithG3004 unto himG846, FeedG1006 myG3450 sheepG4263.
Take heedG4337 thereforeG3767 unto yourselvesG1438, andG2532 to allG3956 the flockG4168, overG1722 the whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 hath madeG5087 youG5209 overseersG1985, to feedG4165 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, whichG3739 he hath purchasedG4046 withG1223 his ownG2398 bloodG129.
ForG1063 IG1473 knowG1492 thisG5124, thatG3754 afterG3326 myG3450 departingG867 shall grievousG926 wolvesG3074 enter inG1525 amongG1519 youG5209, notG3361 sparingG5339 the flockG4168.
The eldersG4245 which are amongG1722 youG5213 I exhortG3870, whoG3588 am also an elderG4850, andG2532 a witnessG3144 of the sufferingsG3804 of ChristG5547, and alsoG2532 a partakerG2844 of the gloryG1391 that shallG3195 be revealedG601:
FeedG4165 the flockG4168 of GodG2316 which is amongG1722 youG5213, taking the oversightG1983 thereof, notG3361 by constraintG317, butG235 willinglyG1596; notG3366 for filthy lucreG147, butG235 of a ready mindG4290; {which…: or, as much as in you is}
NeitherG3366 asG5613 being lords overG2634 God's heritageG2819, butG235 beingG1096 ensamplesG5179 to the flockG4168. {being lords over: or, overruling}
AndG2532 when the chief ShepherdG750 shall appearG5319, ye shall receiveG2865 a crownG4735 of gloryG1391 that fadeth not awayG262.
