The wordH1697 that came to JeremiahH3414 from the LORDH3068, afterH310 that NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 had let him goH7971 from RamahH7414, when he had takenH3947 him being boundH631 in chainsH246 amongH8432 all that were carried away captiveH1546 of JerusalemH3389 and JudahH3063, which were carried away captiveH1540 unto BabylonH894. {chains: or, manicles}
And the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947 JeremiahH3414, and saidH559 unto him, The LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath pronouncedH1696 this evilH7451 upon this placeH4725.
Now the LORDH3068 hath broughtH935 it, and doneH6213 according as he hath saidH1696: because ye have sinnedH2398 against the LORDH3068, and have not obeyedH8085 his voiceH6963, therefore this thingH1697 is come upon you.
And now, behold, I looseH6605 thee this dayH3117 from the chainsH246 which were upon thine handH3027. If it seem goodH2896+H5869 unto thee to comeH935 with me into BabylonH894, comeH935; and I will look wellH7760+H5869 unto thee: but if it seem illH7489+H5869 unto thee to comeH935 with me into BabylonH894, forbearH2308: beholdH7200, all the landH776 is beforeH6440 thee: whither it seemethH413 goodH2896 and convenientH3477+H5869 for thee to goH3212, thither goH3212. {were…: or, are upon thine hand} {I will…: Heb. I will set mine eye upon thee}
Now while he was not yet gone backH7725, he said, Go backH7725 also to GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227, whom the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 hath made governorH6485 over the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and dwellH3427 with him amongH8432 the peopleH5971: or goH3212 wheresoever it seemeth convenientH3477+H5869 unto thee to goH3212. So the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 gaveH5414 him victualsH737 and a rewardH4864, and let him goH7971.
Then wentH935 JeremiahH3414 unto GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296 to MizpahH4708; and dweltH3427 with him amongH8432 the peopleH5971 that were leftH7604 in the landH776.
Now when all the captainsH8269 of the forcesH2428 which were in the fieldsH7704, even they and their menH582, heardH8085 that the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had made GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296 governorH6485 in the landH776, and had committedH6485 unto him menH582, and womenH802, and childrenH2945, and of the poorH1803 of the landH776, of them that were not carried away captiveH1540 to BabylonH894;
Then they cameH935 to GedaliahH1436 to MizpahH4708, even IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418, and JohananH3110 and JonathanH3129 the sonsH1121 of KareahH7143, and SeraiahH8304 the sonH1121 of TanhumethH8576, and the sonsH1121 of EphaiH5778 the NetophathiteH5200, and JezaniahH3153 the sonH1121 of a MaachathiteH4602, they and their menH582.
And GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227 swareH7650 unto them and to their menH582, sayingH559, FearH3372 not to serveH5647 the ChaldeansH3778: dwell inH3427 the landH776, and serveH5647 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and it shall be wellH3190 with you.
As for me, behold, I will dwellH3427 at MizpahH4709 to serveH5975+H6440 the ChaldeansH3778, which will comeH935 unto us: but ye, gatherH622 ye wineH3196, and summer fruitsH7019, and oilH8081, and putH7760 them in your vesselsH3627, and dwellH3427 in your citiesH5892 that ye have takenH8610. {to serve: Heb. to stand before}
Likewise when all the JewsH3064 that were in MoabH4124, and among the AmmonitesH5983, and in EdomH123, and that were in all the countriesH776, heardH8085 that the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had leftH5414 a remnantH7611 of JudahH3063, and that he had setH6485 over them GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227;
Even all the JewsH3064 returned outH7725 of all placesH4725 whither they were drivenH5080, and cameH935 to the landH776 of JudahH3063, to GedaliahH1436, unto MizpahH4708, and gatheredH622 wineH3196 and summer fruitsH7019 veryH3966 muchH7235.
Moreover JohananH3110 the sonH1121 of KareahH7143, and all the captainsH8269 of the forcesH2428 that were in the fieldsH7704, cameH935 to GedaliahH1436 to MizpahH4708,
And saidH559 unto him, Dost thou certainlyH3045 knowH3045 that BaalisH1185 the kingH4428 of the AmmonitesH1121+H5983 hath sentH7971 IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418 to slayH5221+H5315 thee? But GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296 believedH539 them not. {to slay…: Heb. to strike thee in soul?}
Then JohananH3110 the sonH1121 of KareahH7143 spakeH559 to GedaliahH1436 in MizpahH4709 secretlyH5643, sayingH559, Let me goH3212, I pray thee, and I will slayH5221 IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418, and no manH376 shall knowH3045 it: wherefore should he slayH5221+H5315 thee, that all the JewsH3064 which are gatheredH6908 unto thee should be scatteredH6327, and the remnantH7611 in JudahH3063 perishH6?
But GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296 saidH559 unto JohananH3110 the sonH1121 of KareahH7143, Thou shalt not doH6213 this thingH1697: for thou speakestH1696 falselyH8267 of IshmaelH3458.

Then they cameH935 to GedaliahH1436 to MizpahH4708, even IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418, and JohananH3110 and JonathanH3129 the sonsH1121 of KareahH7143, and SeraiahH8304 the sonH1121 of TanhumethH8576, and the sonsH1121 of EphaiH5778 the NetophathiteH5200, and JezaniahH3153 the sonH1121 of a MaachathiteH4602, they and their menH582.

Then IshmaelH3458 carried away captiveH7617 all the residueH7611 of the peopleH5971 that were in MizpahH4709, even the king'sH4428 daughtersH1323, and all the peopleH5971 that remainedH7604 in MizpahH4709, whom NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 had committedH6485 to GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296: and IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418 carried them away captiveH7617, and departedH3212 to go overH5674 to the AmmonitesH1121+H5983.
Then aroseH6965 IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418, and the tenH6235 menH582 that were with him, and smoteH5221 GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227 with the swordH2719, and slewH4191 him, whom the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had made governorH6485 over the landH776.
Concerning the AmmonitesH1121+H5983, thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Hath IsraelH3478 no sonsH1121? hath he no heirH3423? why then doth their kingH4428 inheritH3423 GadH1410, and his peopleH5971 dwellH3427 in his citiesH5892? {Concerning: or, Against} {their king: or, Melcom}
Therefore, behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH559 the LORDH3068, that I will cause an alarmH8643 of warH4421 to be heardH8085 in RabbahH7237 of the AmmonitesH1121+H5983; and it shall be a desolateH8077 heapH8510, and her daughtersH1323 shall be burnedH3341 with fireH784: then shall IsraelH3478 be heirH3423 unto them that were his heirsH3423, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
HowlH3213, O HeshbonH2809, for AiH5857 is spoiledH7703: cryH6817, ye daughtersH1323 of RabbahH7237, girdH2296 you with sackclothH8242; lamentH5594, and run to and froH7751 by the hedgesH1448; for their kingH4428 shall goH3212 into captivityH1473, and his priestsH3548 and his princesH8269 togetherH3162. {their king: or, Melcom}
Wherefore gloriestH1984 thou in the valleysH6010, thy flowingH2100 valleyH6010, O backslidingH7728 daughterH1323? that trustedH982 in her treasuresH214, saying, Who shall comeH935 unto me? {thy…: or, thy valley floweth away}
Behold, I will bringH935 a fearH6343 upon thee, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635, from all those that be aboutH5439 thee; and ye shall be driven outH5080 every manH376 right forthH6440; and none shall gather upH6908 him that wanderethH5074.
And afterwardH310 I will bring againH7725 the captivityH7622 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Then IshmaelH3458 carried away captiveH7617 all the residueH7611 of the peopleH5971 that were in MizpahH4709, even the king'sH4428 daughtersH1323, and all the peopleH5971 that remainedH7604 in MizpahH4709, whom NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 had committedH6485 to GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296: and IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418 carried them away captiveH7617, and departedH3212 to go overH5674 to the AmmonitesH1121+H5983.
Then NahashH5176 the AmmoniteH5984 came upH5927, and encampedH2583 against JabeshgileadH3003+H1568: and all the menH582 of JabeshH3003 saidH559 unto NahashH5176, MakeH3772 a covenantH1285 with us, and we will serveH5647 thee.
And NahashH5176 the AmmoniteH5984 answeredH559 them, On thisH2063 condition will I makeH3772 a covenant with you, that I may thrust outH5365 all your rightH3225 eyesH5869, and layH7760 it for a reproachH2781 upon all IsraelH3478.
And the eldersH2205 of JabeshH3003 saidH559 unto him, Give us sevenH7651 days'H3117 respiteH7503, that we may sendH7971 messengersH4397 unto all the coastsH1366 of IsraelH3478: and then, if there be no man to saveH3467 us, we will come outH3318 to thee. {Give…: Heb. Forbear us}
BurningH1814 lipsH8193 and a wickedH7451 heartH3820 are like a potsherdH2789 coveredH6823 with silverH3701 drossH5509.
He that hatethH8130 dissemblethH5234 with his lipsH8193, and layeth upH7896 deceitH4820 withinH7130 him; {dissembleth: or, is known}
When he speakethH6963 fairH2603, believeH539 him not: for there are sevenH7651 abominationsH8441 in his heartH3820. {speaketh…: Heb. maketh his voice gracious}
Whose hatredH8135 is coveredH3680 by deceitH4860, his wickednessH7451 shall be shewedH1540 before the whole congregationH6951. {by…: or, in secret}
And it came to pass after thisH310, that the kingH4428 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 diedH4191, and HanunH2586 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.
Then saidH559 DavidH1732, I will shewH6213 kindnessH2617 unto HanunH2586 the sonH1121 of NahashH5176, as his fatherH1 shewedH6213 kindnessH2617 unto me. And DavidH1732 sentH7971 to comfortH5162 him by the handH3027 of his servantsH5650 for his fatherH1. And David'sH1732 servantsH5650 cameH935 into the landH776 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983.
And the princesH8269 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 saidH559 unto HanunH2586 their lordH113, ThinkestH5869 thou that DavidH1732 doth honourH3513 thy fatherH1, that he hath sentH7971 comfortersH5162 unto thee? hath not DavidH1732 rather sentH7971 his servantsH5650 unto thee, toH5668 searchH2713 the cityH5892, and to spy it outH7270, and to overthrowH2015 it? {Thinkest…: Heb. In thine eyes doth David?}
Wherefore HanunH2586 tookH3947 David'sH1732 servantsH5650, and shaved offH1548 the one halfH2677 of their beardsH2206, and cut offH3772 their garmentsH4063 in the middleH2677, even to their buttocksH8357, and sent them awayH7971.
When they toldH5046 it unto DavidH1732, he sentH7971 to meetH7125 them, because the menH582 were greatlyH3966 ashamedH3637: and the kingH4428 saidH559, TarryH3427 at JerichoH3405 until your beardsH2206 be grownH6779, and then returnH7725.
And when the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sawH7200 that they stankH887 before DavidH1732, the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sentH7971 and hiredH7936 the SyriansH758 of BethrehobH1050, and the SyriansH758 of ZobaH6678, twentyH6242 thousandH505 footmenH7273, and of kingH4428 MaacahH4601 a thousandH505 menH376, and of IshtobH382 twelveH6240+H8147 thousandH505 menH376. {Ishtob: or, the men of Tob}
Let favour be shewedH2603 to the wickedH7563, yet will he notH1077 learnH3925 righteousnessH6664: in the landH776 of uprightnessH5229 will he deal unjustlyH5765, and will notH1077 beholdH7200 the majestyH1348 of the LORDH3068.
SonH1121 of manH120, setH7760 thy faceH6440 against the AmmonitesH1121+H5983, and prophesyH5012 against them;
And sayH559 unto the AmmonitesH1121+H5983, HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LordH136 GODH3069; Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Because thou saidstH559, AhaH1889, against my sanctuaryH4720, when it was profanedH2490; and against the landH127 of IsraelH3478, when it was desolateH8074; and against the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, when they wentH1980 into captivityH1473;
Behold, therefore I will deliverH5414 thee to the menH1121 of the eastH6924 for a possessionH4181, and they shall setH3427 their palacesH2918 in thee, and makeH5414 their dwellingsH4908 in thee: they shall eatH398 thy fruitH6529, and they shall drinkH8354 thy milkH2461. {men: Heb. children}
And I will makeH5414 RabbahH7237 a stableH5116 for camelsH1581, and the AmmonitesH1121+H5983 a couchingplaceH4769 for flocksH6629: and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.
For thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069; Because thou hast clappedH4222 thine handsH3027, and stampedH7554 with the feetH7272, and rejoicedH8055 in heartH5315 with all thy despiteH7589 against the landH127 of IsraelH3478; {hands: Heb. hand} {feet: Heb. foot} {heart: Heb. soul}
TrustH539 ye not in a friendH7453, put ye not confidenceH982 in a guideH441: keepH8104 the doorsH6607 of thy mouthH6310 from her that liethH7901 in thy bosomH2436.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; For threeH7969 transgressionsH6588 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and for fourH702, I will not turn awayH7725 the punishment thereof; because they have ripped upH1234 the women with childH2030 of GileadH1568, that they might enlargeH7337 their borderH1366: {ripped…: or, divided the mountains}
But I will kindleH3341 a fireH784 in the wallH2346 of RabbahH7237, and it shall devourH398 the palacesH759 thereof, with shoutingH8643 in the dayH3117 of battleH4421, with a tempestH5591 in the dayH3117 of the whirlwindH5492:
And their kingH4428 shall goH1980 into captivityH1473, he and his princesH8269 togetherH3162, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
