Then all the captainsH8269 of the forcesH2428, and JohananH3110 the sonH1121 of KareahH7143, and JezaniahH3153 the sonH1121 of HoshaiahH1955, and all the peopleH5971 from the leastH6996 even unto the greatestH1419, came nearH5066,
And saidH559 unto JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, Let, we beseech thee, our supplicationH8467 be acceptedH5307 beforeH6440 thee, and prayH6419 for us unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, even for all this remnantH7611; (for we are leftH7604 but a fewH4592 of manyH7235, as thine eyesH5869 do beholdH7200 us:) {Let…: or, Let our supplication fall before thee}
That the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 may shewH5046 us the wayH1870 wherein we may walkH3212, and the thingH1697 that we may doH6213.
Then JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 saidH559 unto them, I have heardH8085 you; behold, I will prayH6419 unto the LORDH3068 your GodH430 according to your wordsH1697; and it shall come to pass, that whatsoever thingH1697 the LORDH3068 shall answerH6030 you, I will declareH5046 it unto you; I will keepH4513 nothingH1697 backH4513 from you.
Then they saidH559 to JeremiahH3414, The LORDH3068 be a trueH571 and faithfulH539 witnessH5707 between us, if we doH6213 not even according to all thingsH1697 for the which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 shall sendH7971 thee to us.
Whether it be goodH2896, or whether it be evilH7451, we will obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430, to whom weH580 sendH7971 thee; that it may be wellH3190 with us, when we obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430.
And it came to pass afterH7093 tenH6235 daysH3117, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto JeremiahH3414.
Then calledH7121 he JohananH3110 the sonH1121 of KareahH7143, and all the captainsH8269 of the forcesH2428 which were with him, and all the peopleH5971 from the leastH6996 even to the greatestH1419,
And saidH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, unto whom ye sentH7971 me to presentH5307 your supplicationH8467 beforeH6440 him;
If ye will stillH7725 abideH3427 in this landH776, then will I buildH1129 you, and not pull you downH2040, and I will plantH5193 you, and not pluck you upH5428: for I repentH5162 me of the evilH7451 that I have doneH6213 unto you.
Be not afraidH3372 ofH6440 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, of whomH6440 ye are afraidH3373; be not afraidH3372 of him, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: for I am with you to saveH3467 you, and to deliverH5337 you from his handH3027.
And I will shewH5414 merciesH7356 unto you, that he may have mercyH7355 upon you, and cause you to returnH7725 to your own landH127.
But if ye sayH559, We will not dwellH3427 in this landH776, neither obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430,
SayingH559, No; but we will goH935 into the landH776 of EgyptH4714, where we shall seeH7200 no warH4421, nor hearH8085 the soundH6963 of the trumpetH7782, nor have hungerH7456 of breadH3899; and there will we dwellH3427:
And now therefore hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, ye remnantH7611 of JudahH3063; Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; If ye whollyH7760 setH7760 your facesH6440 to enterH935 into EgyptH4714, and goH935 to sojournH1481 there;
Then it shall come to pass, that the swordH2719, which ye fearedH3373, shall overtakeH5381 you there in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and the famineH7458, whereof ye were afraidH1672, shall follow closeH1692 afterH310 you there in EgyptH4714; and there ye shall dieH4191. {shall follow…: Heb. shall cleave after you}
So shall it be with all the menH582 that setH7760 their facesH6440 to goH935 into EgyptH4714 to sojournH1481 there; they shall dieH4191 by the swordH2719, by the famineH7458, and by the pestilenceH1698: and none of them shall remainH8300 or escapeH6412 fromH6440 the evilH7451 that I will bringH935 upon them. {So…: Heb. So shall all the men be}
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; As mine angerH639 and my furyH2534 hath been poured forthH5413 upon the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389; so shall my furyH2534 be poured forthH5413 upon you, when ye shall enterH935 into EgyptH4714: and ye shall be an execrationH423, and an astonishmentH8047, and a curseH7045, and a reproachH2781; and ye shall seeH7200 this placeH4725 no more.
The LORDH3068 hath saidH1696 concerning you, O ye remnantH7611 of JudahH3063; GoH935 ye not into EgyptH4714: knowH3045 certainlyH3045 that I have admonishedH5749 you this dayH3117. {admonished…: Heb. testified against you}
For ye dissembledH8582 in your heartsH5315, when ye sentH7971 me unto the LORDH3068 your GodH430, sayingH559, PrayH6419 for us unto the LORDH3068 our GodH430; and according unto all that the LORDH3068 our GodH430 shall sayH559, so declareH5046 unto us, and we will doH6213 it. {ye dissembled…: or, ye have used deceit against your souls}
And now I have this dayH3117 declaredH5046 it to you; but ye have not obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430, nor any thing for the which he hath sentH7971 me unto you.
Now therefore knowH3045 certainlyH3045 that ye shall dieH4191 by the swordH2719, by the famineH7458, and by the pestilenceH1698, in the placeH4725 whither ye desireH2654 to goH935 and to sojournH1481. {to go…: or, to go to sojourn}

But he shall not multiplyH7235 horsesH5483 to himself, nor cause the peopleH5971 to returnH7725 to EgyptH4714, to the end that he should multiplyH7235 horsesH5483: forasmuch as the LORDH3068 hath saidH559 unto you, Ye shall henceforthH3254 returnH7725 no more that wayH1870.
But if thou refuseH3986 to go forthH3318, this is the wordH1697 that the LORDH3068 hath shewedH7200 me:
And it shall come to pass, when manyH7227 evilsH7451 and troublesH6869 are befallenH4672 them, that this songH7892 shall testifyH6030 againstH6440 them as a witnessH5707; for it shall not be forgottenH7911 out of the mouthsH6310 of their seedH2233: for I knowH3045 their imaginationH3336 which they go aboutH6213, even nowH3117, before I have broughtH935 them into the landH776 which I swareH7650. {against: Heb. before} {go…: Heb. do}
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}
Nevertheless if thou warnH2094 the righteousH6662 man, that the righteousH6662 sinH2398 not, and he doth not sinH2398, he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421, because he is warnedH2094; also thou hast deliveredH5337 thy soulH5315.
Yet he sentH7971 prophetsH5030 to them, to bring them againH7725 unto the LORDH3068; and they testifiedH5749 against them: but they would not give earH238.
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.
WhereforeG1352 I takeG3143 youG5213 to recordG3143 thisG1722+G4594 dayG2250, thatG3754 IG1473 am pureG2513 fromG575 the bloodG129 of allG3956 men.
Nevertheless they were disobedientH4784, and rebelledH4775 against thee, and castH7993 thy lawH8451 behindH310 their backsH1458, and slewH2026 thy prophetsH5030 which testifiedH5749 against them to turnH7725 them to thee, and they wroughtH6213 greatH1419 provocationsH5007.
But he rebelledH4775 against him in sendingH7971 his ambassadorsH4397 into EgyptH4714, that they might giveH5414 him horsesH5483 and muchH7227 peopleH5971. Shall he prosperH6743? shall he escapeH4422 that doethH6213 such things? or shall he breakH6565 the covenantH1285, and be deliveredH4422?
ForG1063 I haveG5288 notG3756+G3361 shunnedG5288 to declareG312 unto youG5213 allG3956 the counselG1012 of GodG2316.
And testifiedstH5749 against them, that thou mightest bring them againH7725 unto thy lawH8451: yet they dealt proudlyH2102, and hearkenedH8085 not unto thy commandmentsH4687, but sinnedH2398 against thy judgmentsH4941, (which if a manH120 doH6213, he shall liveH2421 in them;) and withdrewH5414+H5637 the shoulderH3802, and hardenedH7185 their neckH6203, and would not hearH8085. {withdrew…: Heb. they gave a withdrawing shoulder}
Yet manyH7227 yearsH8141 didst thou forbearH4900 them, and testifiedstH5749 against them by thy spiritH7307 inH3027 thy prophetsH5030: yet would they not give earH238: therefore gavestH5414 thou them into the handH3027 of the peopleH5971 of the landsH776. {forbear…: Heb. protract over them} {in thy…: Heb. in the hand of thy prophets}
AndG5037 with manyG4119 otherG2087 wordsG3056 did he testifyG1263 andG2532 exhortG3870, sayingG3004, Save yourselvesG4982 fromG575 thisG5026 untowardG4646 generationG1074.
ThisG5124 I sayG3004 thereforeG3767, andG2532 testifyG3143 inG1722 the LordG2962, that yeG5209 henceforthG3371 walkG4043 notG3371 asG2531+G2532 otherG3062 GentilesG1484 walkG4043, inG1722 the vanityG3153 of theirG846 mindG3563,
That noG3361 man go beyondG5233 andG2532 defraudG4122 hisG846 brotherG80 inG1722 any matterG4229: becauseG1360 that the LordG2962 is the avengerG1558 ofG4012 allG3956 suchG5130, asG2531 weG4277 alsoG2532 have forewarnedG4277 youG5213 andG2532 testifiedG1263. {defraud: or, oppress, or, overreach} {in…: or, in the matter}
