The wordH1697 that came to JeremiahH3414 from the LORDH3068 in the tenthH6224 yearH8141 of ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, which was the eighteenthH8083+H6240+H8141 yearH8141 of NebuchadrezzarH5019.
For then the kingH4428 of Babylon'sH894 armyH2428 besiegedH6696 JerusalemH3389: and JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 was shut upH3607 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307, which was in the kingH4428 of Judah'sH3063 houseH1004.
For ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 had shut him upH3607, sayingH559, Wherefore dost thou prophesyH5012, and sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Behold, I will giveH5414 this cityH5892 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and he shall takeH3920 it;
And ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 shall not escapeH4422 out of the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778, but shall surelyH5414 be deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and shall speakH1696 with him mouthH6310 to mouthH6310, and his eyesH5869 shall beholdH7200 his eyesH5869;
And he shall leadH3212 ZedekiahH6667 to BabylonH894, and there shall he be until I visitH6485 him, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: though ye fightH3898 with the ChaldeansH3778, ye shall not prosperH6743.
And JeremiahH3414 saidH559, The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
Behold, HanameelH2601 the sonH1121 of ShallumH7967 thine uncleH1730 shall comeH935 unto thee, sayingH559, BuyH7069 thee my fieldH7704 that is in AnathothH6068: for the rightH4941 of redemptionH1353 is thine to buyH7069 it.
So HanameelH2601 mine uncle'sH1730 sonH1121 cameH935 to me in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307 according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, and saidH559 unto me, BuyH7069 my fieldH7704, I pray thee, that is in AnathothH6068, which is in the countryH776 of BenjaminH1144: for the rightH4941 of inheritanceH3425 is thine, and the redemptionH1353 is thine; buyH7069 it for thyself. Then I knewH3045 that this was the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068.
And I boughtH7069 the fieldH7704 of HanameelH2601 my uncle'sH1730 sonH1121, that was in AnathothH6068, and weighedH8254 him the moneyH3701, even seventeenH7651+H6235 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701. {seventeen…: or, seven shekels and ten pieces of silver}
And I subscribedH3789 the evidenceH5612, and sealedH2856 it, and tookH5749 witnessesH5707, and weighedH8254 him the moneyH3701 in the balancesH3976. {subscribed…: Heb. wrote in the book}
So I tookH3947 the evidenceH5612 of the purchaseH4736, both that which was sealedH2856 according to the lawH4687 and customH2706, and that which was openH1540:
And I gaveH5414 the evidenceH5612 of the purchaseH4736 unto BaruchH1263 the sonH1121 of NeriahH5374, the sonH1121 of MaaseiahH4271, in the sightH5869 of HanameelH2601 mine uncle'sH1730 son, and in the presenceH5869 of the witnessesH5707 that subscribedH3789 the bookH5612 of the purchaseH4736, beforeH5869 all the JewsH3064 that satH3427 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307.
And I chargedH6680 BaruchH1263 beforeH5869 them, sayingH559,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; TakeH3947 these evidencesH5612, this evidenceH5612 of the purchaseH4736, both which is sealedH2856, and this evidenceH5612 which is openH1540; and putH5414 them in an earthenH2789 vesselH3627, that they may continueH5975 manyH7227 daysH3117.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; HousesH1004 and fieldsH7704 and vineyardsH3754 shall be possessed againH7069 in this landH776.
Now whenH310 I had deliveredH5414 the evidenceH5612 of the purchaseH4736 unto BaruchH1263 the sonH1121 of NeriahH5374, I prayedH6419 unto the LORDH3068, sayingH559,
AhH162 LordH136 GODH3069! behold, thou hast madeH6213 the heavenH8064 and the earthH776 by thy greatH1419 powerH3581 and stretched outH5186 armH2220, and there is nothingH1697 too hardH6381 for thee: {too…: or, hid from thee}
Thou shewestH6213 lovingkindnessH2617 unto thousandsH505, and recompensestH7999 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 into the bosomH2436 of their childrenH1121 afterH310 them: the GreatH1419, the MightyH1368 GodH410, the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, is his nameH8034,
GreatH1419 in counselH6098, and mightyH7227 in workH5950: for thine eyesH5869 are openH6491 upon all the waysH1870 of the sonsH1121 of menH120: to giveH5414 every oneH376 according to his waysH1870, and according to the fruitH6529 of his doingsH4611: {work: Heb. doing}
Which hast setH7760 signsH226 and wondersH4159 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, even unto this dayH3117, and in IsraelH3478, and among other menH120; and hast madeH6213 thee a nameH8034, as at this dayH3117;
And hast brought forthH3318 thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 with signsH226, and with wondersH4159, and with a strongH2389 handH3027, and with a stretched outH5186 armH248, and with greatH1419 terrorH4172;
And hast givenH5414 them this landH776, which thou didst swearH7650 to their fathersH1 to giveH5414 them, a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706;
And they came inH935, and possessedH3423 it; but they obeyedH8085 not thy voiceH6963, neither walkedH1980 in thy lawH8451; they have doneH6213 nothing of all that thou commandedstH6680 them to doH6213: therefore thou hast caused all this evilH7451 to comeH7122 upon them:
Behold the mountsH5550, they are comeH935 unto the cityH5892 to takeH3920 it; and the cityH5892 is givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778, that fightH3898 against it, becauseH6440 of the swordH2719, and of the famineH7458, and of the pestilenceH1698: and what thou hast spokenH1696 is come to pass; and, behold, thou seestH7200 it. {mounts: or, engines of shot}
And thou hast saidH559 unto me, O LordH136 GODH3069, BuyH7069 thee the fieldH7704 for moneyH3701, and takeH5749 witnessesH5707; for the cityH5892 is givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778. {for the: or, though the}
Then came the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 unto JeremiahH3414, sayingH559,
Behold, I am the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of all fleshH1320: is there any thingH1697 too hardH6381 for me?
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Behold, I will giveH5414 this cityH5892 into the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778, and into the handH3027 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and he shall takeH3920 it:
And the ChaldeansH3778, that fightH3898 against this cityH5892, shall comeH935 and setH3341 fireH784 on this cityH5892, and burnH8313 it with the housesH1004, upon whose roofsH1406 they have offered incenseH6999 unto BaalH1168, and poured outH5258 drink offeringsH5262 unto otherH312 godsH430, to provoke me to angerH3707.
For the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 and the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 have only doneH6213 evilH7451 beforeH5869 me from their youthH5271: for the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 have only provoked me to angerH3707 with the workH4639 of their handsH3027, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
For this cityH5892 hath been to me as a provocation of mine angerH639 and of my furyH2534 from the dayH3117 that they builtH1129 it even unto this dayH3117; that I should removeH5493 it from before my faceH6440, {a provocation…: Heb. for my anger}
Because of all the evilH7451 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 and of the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063, which they have doneH6213 to provoke me to angerH3707, they, their kingsH4428, their princesH8269, their priestsH3548, and their prophetsH5030, and the menH376 of JudahH3063, and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389.
And they have turnedH6437 unto me the backH6203, and not the faceH6440: though I taughtH3925 them, rising up earlyH7925 and teachingH3925 them, yet they have not hearkenedH8085 to receiveH3947 instructionH4148. {back: Heb. neck}
But they setH7760 their abominationsH8251 in the houseH1004, which is calledH7121 by my nameH8034, to defileH2930 it.
And they builtH1129 the high placesH1116 of BaalH1168, which are in the valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, to cause their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 to passH5674 through the fire unto MolechH4432; which I commandedH6680 them not, neither cameH5927 it into my mindH3820, that they should doH6213 this abominationH8441, to cause JudahH3063 to sinH2398.
And now therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, concerning this cityH5892, whereof ye sayH559, It shall be deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 by the swordH2719, and by the famineH7458, and by the pestilenceH1698;
Behold, I will gather them outH6908 of all countriesH776, whither I have drivenH5080 them in mine angerH639, and in my furyH2534, and in greatH1419 wrathH7110; and I will bring them againH7725 unto this placeH4725, and I will cause them to dwellH3427 safelyH983:
And they shall be my peopleH5971, and I will be their GodH430:
And I will giveH5414 them oneH259 heartH3820, and oneH259 wayH1870, that they may fearH3372 me for everH3117, for the goodH2896 of them, and of their childrenH1121 afterH310 them: {for ever: Heb. all days}
And I will makeH3772 an everlastingH5769 covenantH1285 with them, that I will not turn awayH7725 from themH310, to do them goodH3190; but I will putH5414 my fearH3374 in their heartsH3824, that they shall not departH5493 from me. {from them: Heb. from after them}
Yea, I will rejoiceH7797 over them to do them goodH2895, and I will plantH5193 them in this landH776 assuredlyH571 with my whole heartH3820 and with my whole soulH5315. {assuredly: Heb. in truth, or, stability}
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Like as I have broughtH935 all this greatH1419 evilH7451 upon this peopleH5971, so will I bringH935 upon them all the goodH2896 that I have promisedH1696 them.
And fieldsH7704 shall be boughtH7069 in this landH776, whereof ye sayH559, It is desolateH8077 without manH120 or beastH929; it is givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778.
Men shall buyH7069 fieldsH7704 for moneyH3701, and subscribeH3789 evidencesH5612, and sealH2856 them, and takeH5749 witnessesH5707 in the landH776 of BenjaminH1144, and in the places aboutH5439 JerusalemH3389, and in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and in the citiesH5892 of the mountainsH2022, and in the citiesH5892 of the valleyH8219, and in the citiesH5892 of the southH5045: for I will cause their captivityH7622 to returnH7725, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.

As the thiefH1590 is ashamedH1322 when he is foundH4672, so is the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 ashamedH3001; they, their kingsH4428, their princesH8269, and their priestsH3548, and their prophetsH5030,
Since the daysH3117 of our fathersH1 have we been in a greatH1419 trespassH819 unto this dayH3117; and for our iniquitiesH5771 have we, our kingsH4428, and our priestsH3548, been deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of the kingsH4428 of the landsH776, to the swordH2719, to captivityH7628, and to a spoilH961, and to confusionH1322 of faceH6440, as it is this dayH3117.
Now therefore, our GodH430, the greatH1419, the mightyH1368, and the terribleH3372 GodH410, who keepestH8104 covenantH1285 and mercyH2617, let not all the troubleH8513 seem littleH4591 beforeH6440 thee, that hath comeH4672 upon us, on our kingsH4428, on our princesH8269, and on our priestsH3548, and on our prophetsH5030, and on our fathersH1, and on all thy peopleH5971, since the timeH3117 of the kingsH4428 of AssyriaH804 unto this dayH3117. {trouble: Heb. weariness} {that…: Heb. that hath found us}
Howbeit thou art justH6662 in all that is broughtH935 upon us; for thou hast doneH6213 rightH571, but we have done wickedlyH7561:
Neither have our kingsH4428, our princesH8269, our priestsH3548, nor our fathersH1, keptH6213 thy lawH8451, nor hearkenedH7181 unto thy commandmentsH4687 and thy testimoniesH5715, wherewith thou didst testifyH5749 against them.
AhH1945 sinfulH2398 nationH1471, a peopleH5971 ladenH3515 with iniquityH5771, a seedH2233 of evildoersH7489, childrenH1121 that are corruptersH7843: they have forsakenH5800+H853 the LORDH3068, they have provokedH5006+H853 the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478 unto angerH5006, they are gone awayH2114 backwardH268. {laden: Heb. of heaviness} {gone…: Heb. alienated, or, separated}
Why should ye be strickenH5221 any more? ye will revoltH5627 more and moreH3254: the whole headH7218 is sickH2483, and the whole heartH3824 faintH1742. {revolt…: Heb. increase revolt}
From the soleH3709 of the footH7272 even unto the headH7218 there is no soundnessH4974 in it; but woundsH6482, and bruisesH2250, and putrifyingH2961 soresH4347: they have not been closedH2115, neither bound upH2280, neither mollifiedH7401 with ointmentH8081. {ointment: or, oil}
Thy princesH8269 are rebelliousH5637, and companionsH2270 of thievesH1590: every one lovethH157 giftsH7810, and followethH7291 after rewardsH8021: they judgeH8199 not the fatherlessH3490, neither doth the causeH7379 of the widowH490 comeH935 unto them.
Therefore the LORDH3068 will cut offH3772 from IsraelH3478 headH7218 and tailH2180, branchH3712 and rushH100, in oneH259 dayH3117.
The ancientH2205 and honourableH6440+H5375, heH1931 is the headH7218; and the prophetH5030 that teachethH3384 liesH8267, he is the tailH2180.
Behold, the princesH5387 of IsraelH3478, every oneH376 were in thee to their powerH2220 to shedH8210 bloodH1818. {power: Heb. arm}
There is a conspiracyH7195 of her prophetsH5030 in the midstH8432 thereof, like a roaringH7580 lionH738 raveningH2963 the preyH2964; they have devouredH398 soulsH5315; they have takenH3947 the treasureH2633 and precious thingsH3366; they have made her manyH7235 widowsH490 in the midstH8432 thereof.
Her priestsH3548 have violatedH2554 my lawH8451, and have profanedH2490 mine holy thingsH6944: they have put no differenceH914 between the holyH6944 and profaneH2455, neither have they shewedH3045 difference between the uncleanH2931 and the cleanH2889, and have hidH5956 their eyesH5869 from my sabbathsH7676, and I am profanedH2490 amongH8432 them. {violated: Heb. offered violence to}
Her princesH8269 in the midstH7130 thereof are like wolvesH2061 raveningH2963 the preyH2964, to shedH8210 bloodH1818, and to destroyH6 soulsH5315, to getH1214 dishonest gainH1215.
And her prophetsH5030 have daubedH2902 them with untemperedH8602 morter, seeingH2374 vanityH7723, and diviningH7080 liesH3577 unto them, sayingH559, Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069, when the LORDH3068 hath not spokenH1696.
The peopleH5971 of the landH776 have used oppressionH6231+H6233, and exercisedH1497 robberyH1498, and have vexedH3238 the poorH6041 and needyH34: yea, they have oppressedH6231 the strangerH1616 wrongfullyH4941. {oppression: or, deceit} {wrongfully: Heb. without right}
Neither have we hearkenedH8085 unto thy servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, which spakeH1696 in thy nameH8034 to our kingsH4428, our princesH8269, and our fathersH1, and to all the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
O LORDH3068, to us belongeth confusionH1322 of faceH6440, to our kingsH4428, to our princesH8269, and to our fathersH1, because we have sinnedH2398 against thee.
And I saidH559, HearH8085, I pray you, O headsH7218 of JacobH3290, and ye princesH7101 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; Is it not for you to knowH3045 judgmentH4941?
Who hateH8130 the goodH2896, and loveH157 the evilH7451; who pluck offH1497 their skinH5785 from off them, and their fleshH7607 from off their bonesH6106;
Who also eatH398 the fleshH7607 of my peopleH5971, and flayH6584 their skinH5785 from off them; and they breakH6476 their bonesH6106, and chop them in piecesH6566, as for the potH5518, and as fleshH1320 withinH8432 the caldronH7037.
Then shall they cryH2199 unto the LORDH3068, but he will not hearH6030 them: he will even hideH5641 his faceH6440 from them at that timeH6256, as they have behaved themselves illH7489 in their doingsH4611.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 concerning the prophetsH5030 that make my peopleH5971 errH8582, that biteH5391 with their teethH8127, and cryH7121, PeaceH7965; and he that puttethH5414 not into their mouthsH6310, they even prepareH6942 warH4421 against him.
HearH8085 this, I pray you, ye headsH7218 of the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, and princesH7101 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, that abhorH8581 judgmentH4941, and pervertH6140 all equityH3477.
They build upH1129 ZionH6726 with bloodH1818, and JerusalemH3389 with iniquityH5766. {blood: Heb. bloods}
The headsH7218 thereof judgeH8199 for rewardH7810, and the priestsH3548 thereof teachH3384 for hireH4242, and the prophetsH5030 thereof divineH7080 for moneyH3701: yet will they leanH8172 upon the LORDH3068, and sayH559, Is not the LORDH3068 amongH7130 us? none evilH7451 can comeH935 upon us. {and say: Heb. saying}
Therefore shall ZionH6726 for your sakeH1558 be plowedH2790 as a fieldH7704, and JerusalemH3389 shall become heapsH5856, and the mountainH2022 of the houseH1004 as the high placesH1116 of the forestH3293.
WoeH1945 to her that is filthyH4754 and pollutedH1351, to the oppressingH3238 cityH5892! {her…: or, gluttonous: Heb. craw}
She obeyedH8085 not the voiceH6963; she receivedH3947 not correctionH4148; she trustedH982 not in the LORDH3068; she drew not nearH7126 to her GodH430. {correction: or, instruction}
Her princesH8269 withinH7130 her are roaringH7580 lionsH738; her judgesH8199 are eveningH6153 wolvesH2061; they gnaw not the bonesH1633 till the morrowH1242.
Her prophetsH5030 are lightH6348 and treacherousH900 personsH582: her priestsH3548 have pollutedH2490 the sanctuaryH6944, they have done violenceH2554 to the lawH8451.
