And kingH4428 ZedekiahH6667 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 reignedH4427 instead of ConiahH3659 the sonH1121 of JehoiakimH3079, whom NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 made kingH4427 in the landH776 of JudahH3063.
But neither he, nor his servantsH5650, nor the peopleH5971 of the landH776, did hearkenH8085 unto the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068, which he spakeH1696 byH3027 the prophetH5030 JeremiahH3414. {by…: Heb. by the hand of the prophet}
And ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 sentH7971 JehucalH3081 the sonH1121 of ShelemiahH8018 and ZephaniahH6846 the sonH1121 of MaaseiahH4641 the priestH3548 to the prophetH5030 JeremiahH3414, sayingH559, PrayH6419 now unto the LORDH3068 our GodH430 for us.
Now JeremiahH3414 came inH935 and went outH3318 amongH8432 the peopleH5971: for they had not putH5414 him into prisonH1004+H3628.
Then Pharaoh'sH6547 armyH2428 was come forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714: and when the ChaldeansH3778 that besiegedH6696 JerusalemH3389 heardH8085 tidingsH8088 of them, they departedH5927 from JerusalemH3389.
Then came the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 unto the prophetH5030 JeremiahH3414, sayingH559,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Thus shall ye sayH559 to the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, that sentH7971 you unto me to enquireH1875 of me; Behold, Pharaoh'sH6547 armyH2428, which is come forthH3318 to helpH5833 you, shall returnH7725 to EgyptH4714 into their own landH776.
And the ChaldeansH3778 shall come againH7725, and fightH3898 against this cityH5892, and takeH3920 it, and burnH8313 it with fireH784.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; DeceiveH5377 not yourselvesH5315, sayingH559, The ChaldeansH3778 shall surelyH1980 departH3212 from us: for they shall not departH3212. {yourselves: Heb. your souls}
For though ye had smittenH5221 the whole armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 that fightH3898 against you, and there remainedH7604 but woundedH1856 menH582 among them, yet should they rise upH6965 every manH376 in his tentH168, and burnH8313 this cityH5892 with fireH784. {wounded: Heb. thrust through}
And it came to pass, that when the armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 was broken upH5927 from JerusalemH3389 for fearH6440 of Pharaoh'sH6547 armyH2428, {broken…: Heb. made to ascend}
Then JeremiahH3414 went forthH3318 out of JerusalemH3389 to goH3212 into the landH776 of BenjaminH1144, to separateH2505 himself thence in the midstH8432 of the peopleH5971. {separate…: or, to slip away from thence in the midst of the people}
And when he was in the gateH8179 of BenjaminH1144, a captainH1167 of the wardH6488 was there, whose nameH8034 was IrijahH3376, the sonH1121 of ShelemiahH8018, the sonH1121 of HananiahH2608; and he tookH8610 JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, sayingH559, Thou fallest awayH5307 to the ChaldeansH3778.
Then saidH559 JeremiahH3414, It is falseH8267; I fall not awayH5307 to the ChaldeansH3778. But he hearkenedH8085 not to him: so IrijahH3376 tookH8610 JeremiahH3414, and broughtH935 him to the princesH8269. {false: Heb. falsehood, or, a lie}
Wherefore the princesH8269 were wrothH7107 with JeremiahH3414, and smoteH5221 him, and putH5414 him in prisonH612 in the houseH1004 of JonathanH3083 the scribeH5608: for they had madeH6213 that the prisonH3608.
When JeremiahH3414 was enteredH935 into the dungeonH1004+H953, and into the cabinsH2588, and JeremiahH3414 had remainedH3427 there manyH7227 daysH3117; {cabins: or, cells}
Then ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 sentH7971, and took him outH3947: and the kingH4428 askedH7592 him secretlyH5643 in his houseH1004, and saidH559, Is there any wordH1697 from the LORDH3068? And JeremiahH3414 saidH559, There isH3426: for, saidH559 he, thou shalt be deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894.
Moreover JeremiahH3414 saidH559 unto kingH4428 ZedekiahH6667, What have I offendedH2398 against thee, or against thy servantsH5650, or against this peopleH5971, that ye have putH5414 me in prisonH1004+H3608?
Where are nowH346 your prophetsH5030 which prophesiedH5012 unto you, sayingH559, The kingH4428 of BabylonH894 shall not comeH935 against you, nor against this landH776?
Therefore hearH8085 now, I pray thee, O my lordH113 the kingH4428: let my supplicationH8467, I pray thee, be acceptedH5307 beforeH6440 thee; that thou cause me not to returnH7725 to the houseH1004 of JonathanH3083 the scribeH5608, lest I dieH4191 there. {let…: Heb. let my supplication fall}
Then ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 commandedH6680 that they should commitH6485 JeremiahH3414 into the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307, and that they should giveH5414 him dailyH3117 a pieceH3603 of breadH3899 out of the bakers'H644 streetH2351, until all the breadH3899 in the cityH5892 were spentH8552. Thus JeremiahH3414 remainedH3427 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307.

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.
And it shall be, that thou shalt drinkH8354 of the brookH5158; and I have commandedH6680 the ravensH6158 to feedH3557 thee there.
So he wentH3212 and didH6213 according unto the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068: for he wentH3212 and dweltH3427 by the brookH5158 CherithH3747, that is beforeH6440 JordanH3383.
And the ravensH6158 broughtH935 him breadH3899 and fleshH1320 in the morningH1242, and breadH3899 and fleshH1320 in the eveningH6153; and he drankH8354 of the brookH5158.
My lordH113 the kingH4428, these menH582 have done evilH7489 in all that they have doneH6213 to JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, whom they have castH7993 into the dungeonH953; and he is like to dieH4191 forH6440 hungerH7458 in the placeH8478 where he is: for there is no more breadH3899 in the cityH5892. {he is like…: Heb. he will die}
So they drew upH4900 JeremiahH3414 with cordsH2256, and took him upH5927 out of the dungeonH953: and JeremiahH3414 remainedH3427 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307.
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.
In famineH7458 he shall redeemH6299 thee from deathH4194: and in warH4421 from the powerH3027 of the swordH2719. {power: Heb. hands}
And in the fourthH7243 monthH2320, in the ninthH8672 day of the monthH2320, the famineH7458 was soreH2388 in the cityH5892, so that there was no breadH3899 for the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
So JeremiahH3414 abodeH3427 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307 until the dayH3117 that JerusalemH3389 was takenH3920: and he was there when JerusalemH3389 was takenH3920.
So they drew upH4900 JeremiahH3414 with cordsH2256, and took him upH5927 out of the dungeonH953: and JeremiahH3414 remainedH3427 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307.
Behold, the eyeH5869 of the LORDH3068 is upon them that fearH3373 him, upon them that hopeH3176 in his mercyH2617;
And he shall besiegeH6887 thee in all thy gatesH8179, until thy highH1364 and fencedH1219 wallsH2346 come downH3381, whereinH2004 thou trustedstH982, throughout all thy landH776: and he shall besiegeH6887 thee in all thy gatesH8179 throughout all thy landH776, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath givenH5414 thee.
And thou shalt eatH398 the fruitH6529 of thine own bodyH990, the fleshH1320 of thy sonsH1121 and of thy daughtersH1323, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath givenH5414 thee, in the siegeH4692, and in the straitnessH4689, wherewith thine enemiesH341 shall distressH6693 thee: {body: Heb. belly}
So that the manH376 that is tenderH7390 among you, and veryH3966 delicateH6028, his eyeH5869 shall be evilH3415 toward his brotherH251, and toward the wifeH802 of his bosomH2436, and toward the remnantH3499 of his childrenH1121 which he shall leaveH3498:
So that he will not giveH5414 to anyH259 of them of the fleshH1320 of his childrenH1121 whom he shall eatH398: because he hath nothing leftH7604 him in the siegeH4692, and in the straitnessH4689, wherewith thine enemiesH341 shall distressH6693 thee in all thy gatesH8179.
The tenderH7390 and delicateH6028 woman among you, which would not adventureH5254 to setH3322 the soleH3709 of her footH7272 upon the groundH776 for delicatenessH6026 and tendernessH7391, her eyeH5869 shall be evilH3415 toward the husbandH376 of her bosomH2436, and toward her sonH1121, and toward her daughterH1323,
And toward her young oneH7988 that cometh outH3318 from between her feetH7272, and toward her childrenH1121 which she shall bearH3205: for she shall eatH398 them for wantH2640 of all things secretlyH5643 in the siegeH4692 and straitnessH4689, wherewith thine enemyH341 shall distressH6693 thee in thy gatesH8179. {young one: Heb. afterbirth}
Even they sentH7971, and tookH3947 JeremiahH3414 out of the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307, and committedH5414 him unto GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, that he should carryH3318 him homeH1004: so he dweltH3427 amongH8432 the peopleH5971.
So JeremiahH3414 abodeH3427 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307 until the dayH3117 that JerusalemH3389 was takenH3920: and he was there when JerusalemH3389 was takenH3920.
And on the ninthH8672 day of the fourth monthH2320 the famineH7458 prevailedH2388 in the cityH5892, and there was no breadH3899 for the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
Now the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto JeremiahH3414, while he was shut upH6113 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307, sayingH559,
O fearH3372 the LORDH3068, ye his saintsH6918: for there is no wantH4270 to them that fearH3373 him.
Mine eyesH5869 do failH3615 with tearsH1832, my bowelsH4578 are troubledH2560, my liverH3516 is pouredH8210 upon the earthH776, for the destructionH7667 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971; because the childrenH5768 and the sucklingsH3243 swoonH5848 in the streetsH7339 of the cityH7151. {swoon: or, faint}
PeterG4074+G3303 thereforeG3767 was keptG5083 inG1722 prisonG5438: butG1161 prayerG4335 wasG2258 madeG1096 without ceasingG1618 ofG5259 the churchG1577 untoG4314 GodG2316 forG5228 himG846. {prayer…: or, instant and earnest prayer was made}
The young lionsH3715 do lackH7326, and suffer hungerH7456: but they that seekH1875 the LORDH3068 shall not wantH2637 any goodH2896 thing.
They sayH559 to their mothersH517, Where is cornH1715 and wineH3196? when they swoonedH5848 as the woundedH2491 in the streetsH7339 of the cityH5892, when their soulH5315 was poured outH8210 into their mothers'H517 bosomH2436.
ButG1161 afterG4137 two yearsG1333 PorciusG4201 FestusG5347 cameG2983 into Felix'G5344 roomG1240: andG5037 FelixG5344, willingG2309 to shewG2698 the JewsG2453 a pleasureG5485, leftG2641 PaulG3972 boundG1210.
TrustH982 in the LORDH3068, and doH6213 goodH2896; so shalt thou dwellH7931 in the landH776, and verilyH530 thou shalt be fedH7462. {verily: Heb. in truth, or, stableness}
AriseH6965, cry outH7442 in the nightH3915: in the beginningH7218 of the watchesH821 pour outH8210 thine heartH3820 like waterH4325 beforeH5227 the faceH6440 of the LordH136: lift upH5375 thy handsH3709 toward him for the lifeH5315 of thy young childrenH5768, that faintH5848 for hungerH7458 in the topH7218 of every streetH2351.
AndG1161 whenG3753 we cameG2064 toG1519 RomeG4516, the centurionG1543 deliveredG3860 the prisonersG1198 to the captain of the guardG4759: butG1161 PaulG3972 was sufferedG2010 to dwellG3306 byG2596 himselfG1438 withG4862 a soldierG4757 that keptG5442 himG846.
They shall not be ashamedH954 in the evilH7451 timeH6256: and in the daysH3117 of famineH7459 they shall be satisfiedH7646.
BeholdH7200, O LORDH3068, and considerH5027 to whom thou hast doneH5953 thisH3541. Shall the womenH802 eatH398 their fruitH6529, and childrenH5768 of a span longH2949? shall the priestH3548 and the prophetH5030 be slainH2026 in the sanctuaryH4720 of the LordH136? {of a span…: or, swaddled with their hands?}
AndG1161 PaulG3972 dweltG3306 twoG1333 wholeG3650 yearsG1333 inG1722 his ownG2398 hired houseG3410, andG2532 receivedG588 allG3956 that came inG1531 untoG4314 himG846,
When a man'sH376 waysH1870 pleaseH7521 the LORDH3068, he maketh even his enemiesH341 to be at peaceH7999 with him.
The tongueH3956 of the sucking childH3243 cleavethH1692 to the roof of his mouthH2441 for thirstH6772: the young childrenH5768 askH7592 breadH3899, and no man breakethH6566 it unto them.
IG1473 thereforeG3767, the prisonerG1198 ofG1722 the LordG2962, beseechG3870 youG5209 that ye walkG4043 worthyG516 of the vocationG2821 wherewithG3739 ye are calledG2564, {of the Lord: or, in the Lord}
The king'sH4428 heartH3820 is in the handH3027 of the LORDH3068, as the riversH6388 of waterH4325: he turnethH5186 it whithersoever he willH2654.
They that did feedH398 delicatelyH4574 are desolateH8074 in the streetsH2351: they that were brought upH539 in scarletH8438 embraceH2263 dunghillsH830.
ForG5228 whichG3739 I am an ambassadorG4243 inG1722 bondsG254: thatG2443 thereinG1722+G846 I may speak boldlyG3955, asG5613 IG3165 oughtG1163 to speakG2980. {in bonds: or, in a chain} {therein: or, thereof}
He shall dwellH7931 on highH4791: his place of defenceH4869 shall be the munitionsH4679 of rocksH5553: breadH3899 shall be givenH5414 him; his watersH4325 shall be sureH539. {high: Heb. heights, or, high places}
They that be slainH2491 with the swordH2719 are betterH2896 than they that be slainH2491 with hungerH7458: for theseH1992 pine awayH2100, strickenH1856 through for want of the fruitsH8570 of the fieldH7704. {pine…: Heb. flow out}
BeG1870 notG3361 thouG1870 thereforeG3767 ashamedG1870 of the testimonyG3142 of ourG2257 LordG2962, norG3366 of meG1691 hisG846 prisonerG1198: butG235 be thou partaker of the afflictionsG4777 of the gospelG2098 according toG2596 the powerG1411 of GodG2316;
ButG1161 seek yeG2212 firstG4412 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316, andG2532 hisG846 righteousnessG1343; andG2532 allG3956 these thingsG5023 shall be addedG4369 unto youG5213.
The handsH3027 of the pitifulH7362 womenH802 have soddenH1310 their own childrenH3206: they were their meatH1262 in the destructionH7667 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971.
