The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 which came to JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 against the GentilesH1471;
Against EgyptH4714, against the armyH2428 of PharaohnechoH6549 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, which was by the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578 in CarchemishH3751, which NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 smoteH5221 in the fourthH7243 yearH8141 of JehoiakimH3079 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 kingH4428 of JudahH3063.
OrderH6186 ye the bucklerH4043 and shieldH6793, and draw nearH5066 to battleH4421.
HarnessH631 the horsesH5483; and get upH5927, ye horsemenH6571, and stand forthH3320 with your helmetsH3553; furbishH4838 the spearsH7420, and put onH3847 the brigandinesH5630.
Wherefore have I seenH7200 them dismayedH2844 and turnedH5472 away backH268? and their mighty onesH1368 are beaten downH3807, and are fledH5127 apaceH4498, and look not backH6437: for fearH4032 was round aboutH5439, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {beaten…: Heb. broken in pieces} {fled…: Heb. fled a flight}
Let not the swiftH7031 flee awayH5127, nor the mighty manH1368 escapeH4422; they shall stumbleH3782, and fallH5307 toward the northH6828 byH3027 the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578.
Who is this that cometh upH5927 as a floodH2975, whose watersH4325 are movedH1607 as the riversH5104?
EgyptH4714 riseth upH5927 like a floodH2975, and his watersH4325 are movedH1607 like the riversH5104; and he saithH559, I will go upH5927, and will coverH3680 the earthH776; I will destroyH6 the cityH5892 and the inhabitantsH3427 thereof.
Come upH5927, ye horsesH5483; and rageH1984, ye chariotsH7393; and let the mighty menH1368 come forthH3318; the EthiopiansH3568 and the LibyansH6316, that handleH8610 the shieldH4043; and the LydiansH3866, that handleH8610 and bendH1869 the bowH7198. {the Ethiopians: Heb. Cush} {the Libyans: Heb. Put}
For this is the dayH3117 of the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635, a dayH3117 of vengeanceH5360, that he may avengeH5358 him of his adversariesH6862: and the swordH2719 shall devourH398, and it shall be satiateH7646 and made drunkH7301 with their bloodH1818: for the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635 hath a sacrificeH2077 in the northH6828 countryH776 by the riverH5104 EuphratesH6578.
Go upH5927 into GileadH1568, and takeH3947 balmH6875, O virginH1330, the daughterH1323 of EgyptH4714: in vainH7723 shalt thou use manyH7235 medicinesH7499; for thou shalt not be curedH8585. {thou shalt…: Heb. no cure shall be unto thee}
The nationsH1471 have heardH8085 of thy shameH7036, and thy cryH6682 hath filledH4390 the landH776: for the mighty manH1368 hath stumbledH3782 against the mightyH1368, and they are fallenH5307 bothH8147 togetherH3162.
The wordH1697 that the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 to JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, how NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 should comeH935 and smiteH5221 the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
DeclareH5046 ye in EgyptH4714, and publishH8085 in MigdolH4024, and publishH8085 in NophH5297 and in TahpanhesH8471: sayH559 ye, Stand fastH3320, and prepareH3559 thee; for the swordH2719 shall devourH398 round aboutH5439 thee.
Why are thy valiantH47 men swept awayH5502? they stoodH5975 not, because the LORDH3068 did driveH1920 them.
He made manyH7235 to fallH3782, yea, oneH376 fellH5307 upon anotherH7453: and they saidH559, AriseH6965, and let us go againH7725 to our own peopleH5971, and to the landH776 of our nativityH4138, fromH6440 the oppressingH3238 swordH2719. {made…: Heb. multiplied the faller}
They did cryH7121 there, PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 is but a noiseH7588; he hath passedH5674 the time appointedH4150.
As I liveH2416, saithH5002 the KingH4428, whose nameH8034 is the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, Surely as TaborH8396 is among the mountainsH2022, and as CarmelH3760 by the seaH3220, so shall he comeH935.
O thou daughterH1323 dwellingH3427 in EgyptH4714, furnishH6213 thyself to go into captivityH3627+H1473: for NophH5297 shall be wasteH8047 and desolateH3341 without an inhabitantH3427. {furnish…: Heb. make thee instruments of captivity}
EgyptH4714 is like a very fairH3304 heiferH5697, but destructionH7171 comethH935; it cometh outH935 of the northH6828.
Also her hired menH7916 are in the midstH7130 of her like fattedH4770 bullocksH5695; for they also are turned backH6437, and are fled awayH5127 togetherH3162: they did not standH5975, because the dayH3117 of their calamityH343 was comeH935 upon them, and the timeH6256 of their visitationH6486. {fatted…: Heb. bullocks of the stall}
The voiceH6963 thereof shall goH3212 like a serpentH5175; for they shall marchH3212 with an armyH2428, and comeH935 against her with axesH7134, as hewersH2404 of woodH6086.
They shall cut downH3772 her forestH3293, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, though it cannot be searchedH2713; because they are moreH7231 than the grasshoppersH697, and are innumerableH369+H4557.
The daughterH1323 of EgyptH4714 shall be confoundedH3001; she shall be deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of the peopleH5971 of the northH6828.
The LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, saithH559; Behold, I will punishH6485 the multitudeH527+H528 of NoH4996, and PharaohH6547, and EgyptH4714, with their godsH430, and their kingsH4428; even PharaohH6547, and all them that trustH982 in him: {multitude: or, nourisher: Heb. Amon}
And I will deliverH5414 them into the handH3027 of those that seekH1245 their livesH5315, and into the handH3027 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and into the handH3027 of his servantsH5650: and afterwardH310 it shall be inhabitedH7931, as in the daysH3117 of oldH6924, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
But fearH3372 not thou, O my servantH5650 JacobH3290, and be not dismayedH2865, O IsraelH3478: for, behold, I will saveH3467 thee from afar offH7350, and thy seedH2233 from the landH776 of their captivityH7628; and JacobH3290 shall returnH7725, and be in restH8252 and at easeH7599, and none shall make him afraidH2729.
FearH3372 thou not, O JacobH3290 my servantH5650, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: for I am with thee; for I will makeH6213 a full endH3617 of all the nationsH1471 whither I have drivenH5080 thee: but I will not makeH6213 a full endH3617 of thee, but correctH3256 thee in measureH4941; yet will I not leave thee whollyH5352 unpunishedH5352. {not leave…: or, not utterly cut thee off}

And sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will sendH7971 and takeH3947 NebuchadrezzarH5019 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, my servantH5650, and will setH7760 his throneH3678 uponH4605 these stonesH68 that I have hidH2934; and he shall spreadH5186 his royal pavilionH8237 over them.
And when he comethH935, he shall smiteH5221 the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and deliver such as are for deathH4194 to deathH4194; and such as are for captivityH7628 to captivityH7628; and such as are for the swordH2719 to the swordH2719.
And I will kindleH3341 a fireH784 in the housesH1004 of the godsH430 of EgyptH4714; and he shall burnH8313 them, and carry them away captivesH7617: and he shall arrayH5844 himself with the landH776 of EgyptH4714, as a shepherdH7462 putteth onH5844 his garmentH899; and he shall go forthH3318 from thence in peaceH7965.
He shall breakH7665 also the imagesH4676 of BethshemeshH1053, that is in the landH776 of EgyptH4714; and the housesH1004 of the godsH430 of the EgyptiansH4714 shall he burnH8313 with fireH784. {images: Heb. statues, or, standing images} {Bethshemesh: or, The house of the sun}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Behold, I will giveH5414 PharaohhophraH6548 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 into the handH3027 of his enemiesH341, and into the handH3027 of them that seekH1245 his lifeH5315; as I gaveH5414 ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 into the handH3027 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, his enemyH341, and that soughtH1245 his lifeH5315.
The burdenH4853 of EgyptH4714. Behold, the LORDH3068 ridethH7392 upon a swiftH7031 cloudH5645, and shall comeH935 into EgyptH4714: and the idolsH457 of EgyptH4714 shall be movedH5128 at his presenceH6440, and the heartH3824 of EgyptH4714 shall meltH4549 in the midstH7130 of it.
And I will setH5526 the EgyptiansH4714 against the EgyptiansH4714: and they shall fightH3898 every oneH376 against his brotherH251, and every oneH376 against his neighbourH7453; cityH5892 against cityH5892, and kingdomH4467 against kingdomH4467. {set: Heb. mingle}
And the spiritH7307 of EgyptH4714 shall failH1238 in the midstH7130 thereof; and I will destroyH1104 the counselH6098 thereof: and they shall seekH1875 to the idolsH457, and to the charmersH328, and to them that have familiar spiritsH178, and to the wizardsH3049. {fail: Heb. be emptied} {destroy: Heb. swallow up}
AndH853 the EgyptiansH4714 will I give overH5534 into the handH3027 of a cruelH7186 lordH113; and a fierceH5794 kingH4428 shall ruleH4910 over them, saithH5002 the LordH113, the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635. {give…: or, shut up}
And the watersH4325 shall failH5405 from the seaH3220, and the riverH5104 shall be wastedH2717 and dried upH3001.
And they shall turnH2186 the riversH5104 far awayH2186; and the brooksH2975 of defenceH4693 shall be emptiedH1809 and dried upH2717: the reedsH7070 and flagsH5488 shall witherH7060.
The paper reedsH6169 by the brooksH2975, by the mouthH6310 of the brooksH2975, and every thing sownH4218 by the brooksH2975, shall witherH3001, be driven awayH5086, and be no more. {and be…: Heb. and shall not be}
The fishersH1771 also shall mournH578, and all they that castH7993 angleH2443 into the brooksH2975 shall lamentH56, and they that spreadH6566 netsH4365 uponH6440 the watersH4325 shall languishH535.
Moreover they that workH5647 in fineH8305 flaxH6593, and they that weaveH707 networksH2355, shall be confoundedH954. {networks: or, white works}
And they shall be brokenH1792 in the purposesH8356 thereof, all that makeH6213 sluicesH7938 and pondsH99 for fishH5315. {purposes: Heb. foundations} {for fish: Heb. of living things}
Surely the princesH8269 of ZoanH6814 are foolsH191, the counselH6098 of the wiseH2450 counsellorsH3289 of PharaohH6547 is become brutishH1197: how sayH559 ye unto PharaohH6547, I am the sonH1121 of the wiseH2450, the sonH1121 of ancientH6924 kingsH4428?
WhereH335 are they? whereH645 are thy wiseH2450 men? and let them tellH5046 thee now, and let them knowH3045 what the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 hath purposedH3289 upon EgyptH4714.
The princesH8269 of ZoanH6814 are become foolsH2973, the princesH8269 of NophH5297 are deceivedH5377; they have also seducedH8582 EgyptH4714, even they that are the stayH6438 of the tribesH7626 thereof. {they that…: or, governors: Heb. corners}
The LORDH3068 hath mingledH4537 a perverseH5773 spiritH7307 in the midstH7130 thereof: and they have caused EgyptH4714 to errH8582 in every workH4639 thereof, as a drunkenH7910 man staggerethH8582 in his vomitH6892. {a perverse…: Heb. a spirit of perversities}
Neither shall there be any workH4639 for EgyptH4714, which the headH7218 or tailH2180, branchH3712 or rushH100, may doH6213.
In that dayH3117 shall EgyptH4714 be like unto womenH802: and it shall be afraidH2729 and fearH6342 becauseH6440 of the shakingH8573 of the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, which he shakethH5130 over it.
And the landH127 of JudahH3063 shall be a terrorH2283 unto EgyptH4714, every one that maketh mentionH2142 thereof shall be afraidH6342 in himself, becauseH6440 of the counselH6098 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, which he hath determinedH3289 against it.
In that dayH3117 shall fiveH2568 citiesH5892 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714 speakH1696 the languageH8193 of CanaanH3667, and swearH7650 to the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; oneH259 shall be calledH559, The cityH5892 of destructionH2041. {the language: Heb. the lip} {of destruction: or, of Heres, or, of the sun}
In that dayH3117 shall there be an altarH4196 to the LORDH3068 in the midstH8432 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and a pillarH4676 atH681 the borderH1366 thereof to the LORDH3068.
And it shall be for a signH226 and for a witnessH5707 unto the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714: for they shall cryH6817 unto the LORDH3068 becauseH6440 of the oppressorsH3905, and he shall sendH7971 them a saviourH3467, and a great oneH7227, and he shall deliverH5337 them.
And the LORDH3068 shall be knownH3045 to EgyptH4714, and the EgyptiansH4714 shall knowH3045 the LORDH3068 in that dayH3117, and shall doH5647 sacrificeH2077 and oblationH4503; yea, they shall vowH5087 a vowH5088 unto the LORDH3068, and performH7999 it.
And the LORDH3068 shall smiteH5062 EgyptH4714: he shall smiteH5062 and healH7495 it: and they shall returnH7725 even to the LORDH3068, and he shall be intreatedH6279 of them, and shall healH7495 them.
In that dayH3117 shall there be a highwayH4546 out of EgyptH4714 to AssyriaH804, and the AssyrianH804 shall comeH935 into EgyptH4714, and the EgyptianH4714 into AssyriaH804, and the EgyptiansH4714 shall serveH5647 with the AssyriansH804.
In that dayH3117 shall IsraelH3478 be the thirdH7992 with EgyptH4714 and with AssyriaH804, even a blessingH1293 in the midstH7130 of the landH776:
Whom the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 shall blessH1288, sayingH559, BlessedH1288 be EgyptH4714 my peopleH5971, and AssyriaH804 the workH4639 of my handsH3027, and IsraelH3478 mine inheritanceH5159.
WoeH1945 to ArielH740, to ArielH740, the cityH7151 where DavidH1732 dweltH2583! addH5595 ye yearH8141 to yearH8141; let them killH5362 sacrificesH2282. {Woe…: or, O Ariel, that is, the lion of God} {the city: or, of the city} {kill: Heb. cut off the heads of}
Yet I will distressH6693 ArielH740, and there shall be heavinessH8386 and sorrowH592: and it shall be unto me as ArielH740.
And I will campH2583 against thee round aboutH1754, and will lay siegeH6696 against thee with a mountH4674, and I will raiseH6965 fortsH4694 against thee.
And thou shalt be brought downH8213, and shalt speakH1696 out of the groundH776, and thy speechH565 shall be lowH7817 out of the dustH6083, and thy voiceH6963 shall be, as of one that hath a familiar spiritH178, out of the groundH776, and thy speechH565 shall whisperH6850 out of the dustH6083. {whisper: Heb. peep, or, chirp}
Moreover the multitudeH1995 of thy strangersH2114 shall be like smallH1851 dustH80, and the multitudeH1995 of the terrible onesH6184 shall be as chaffH4671 that passeth awayH5674: yea, it shall be at an instantH6621 suddenlyH6597.
Thou shalt be visitedH6485 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 with thunderH7482, and with earthquakeH7494, and greatH1419 noiseH6963, with stormH5492 and tempestH5591, and the flameH3851 of devouringH398 fireH784.
And the multitudeH1995 of all the nationsH1471 that fightH6633 against ArielH740, even all that fightH6638 against her and her munitionH4685, and that distressH6693 her, shall be as a dreamH2472 of a nightH3915 visionH2377.
It shall even be as when an hungryH7457 man dreamethH2492, and, behold, he eatethH398; but he awakethH6974, and his soulH5315 is emptyH7386: or as whenH834 a thirsty manH6771 dreamethH2492, and, behold, he drinkethH8354; but he awakethH6974, and, behold, he is faintH5889, and his soulH5315 hath appetiteH8264: so shall the multitudeH1995 of all the nationsH1471 be, that fightH6633 against mountH2022 ZionH6726.
StayH4102 yourselves, and wonderH8539; cry ye outH8173, and cryH8173: they are drunkenH7937, but not with wineH3196; they staggerH5128, but not with strong drinkH7941. {cry ye…: or, take your pleasure, and riot}
For the LORDH3068 hath poured outH5258 upon you the spiritH7307 of deep sleepH8639, and hath closedH6105 your eyesH5869: the prophetsH5030 and your rulersH7218, the seersH2374 hath he coveredH3680. {rulers: Heb. heads}
And the visionH2380 of all is become unto you as the wordsH1697 of a bookH5612 that is sealedH2856, which men deliverH5414 to one that is learnedH3045, sayingH559, ReadH7121 this, I pray thee: and he saithH559, I cannotH3201; for it is sealedH2856: {book: or, letter}
And the bookH5612 is deliveredH5414 to him that is not learnedH3045+H5612, sayingH559, ReadH7121 this, I pray thee: and he saithH559, I am not learnedH3045.
Wherefore the LordH136 saidH559, ForasmuchH3282 as this peopleH5971 draw nearH5066 me with their mouthH6310, and with their lipsH8193 do honourH3513 me, but have removedH7368 their heartH3820 farH7368 from me, and their fearH3374 toward me is taughtH3925 by the preceptH4687 of menH582:
Therefore, behold, I will proceedH3254 to do a marvellous workH6381 among this peopleH5971, even a marvellous workH6381 and a wonderH6382: for the wisdomH2451 of their wiseH2450 men shall perishH6, and the understandingH998 of their prudentH995 men shall be hidH5641. {proceed: Heb. add}
WoeH1945 unto them that seek deepH6009 to hideH5641 their counselH6098 from the LORDH3068, and their worksH4639 are in the darkH4285, and they sayH559, Who seethH7200 us? and who knowethH3045 us?
Surely your turning of things upside downH2017 shall be esteemedH2803 as the potter'sH3335 clayH2563: for shall the workH4639 sayH559 of him that madeH6213 it, He madeH6213 me not? or shall the thing framedH3336 sayH559 of him that framedH3335 it, He had no understandingH995?
Is it not yet a veryH4213 little whileH4592, and LebanonH3844 shall be turnedH7725 into a fruitful fieldH3759, and the fruitful fieldH3759 shall be esteemedH2803 as a forestH3293?
And in that dayH3117 shall the deafH2795 hearH8085 the wordsH1697 of the bookH5612, and the eyesH5869 of the blindH5787 shall seeH7200 out of obscurityH652, and out of darknessH2822.
The meekH6035 also shall increaseH3254 their joyH8057 in the LORDH3068, and the poorH34 among menH120 shall rejoiceH1523 in the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478. {increase: Heb. add}
For the terrible oneH6184 is brought to noughtH656, and the scornerH3887 is consumedH3615, and all that watchH8245 for iniquityH205 are cut offH3772:
That make a manH120 an offenderH2398 for a wordH1697, and lay a snareH6983 for him that reprovethH3198 in the gateH8179, and turn asideH5186 the justH6662 for a thing of noughtH8414.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, who redeemedH6299 AbrahamH85, concerning the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, JacobH3290 shall not now be ashamedH954, neither shall his faceH6440 now wax paleH2357.
But when he seethH7200 his childrenH3206, the workH4639 of mine handsH3027, in the midstH7130 of him, they shall sanctifyH6942 my nameH8034, and sanctifyH6942 the Holy OneH6918 of JacobH3290, and shall fearH6206 the GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
They also that erredH8582 in spiritH7307 shall comeH3045 to understandingH998, and they that murmuredH7279 shall learnH3925 doctrineH3948. {come…: Heb. know understanding}
