Again the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 came to me, sayingH559,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; I was jealousH7065 for ZionH6726 with greatH1419 jealousyH7068, and I was jealousH7065 for her with greatH1419 furyH2534.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; I am returnedH7725 unto ZionH6726, and will dwellH7931 in the midstH8432 of JerusalemH3389: and JerusalemH3389 shall be calledH7121 a cityH5892 of truthH571; and the mountainH2022 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 the holyH6944 mountainH2022.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; There shall yet old menH2205 and old womenH2205 dwellH3427 in the streetsH7339 of JerusalemH3389, and every manH376 with his staffH4938 in his handH3027 for veryH7230 ageH3117. {very…: Heb. multitude of days}
And the streetsH7339 of the cityH5892 shall be fullH4390 of boysH3206 and girlsH3207 playingH7832 in the streetsH7339 thereof.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; If it be marvellousH6381 in the eyesH5869 of the remnantH7611 of this peopleH5971 in these daysH3117, should it also be marvellousH6381 in mine eyesH5869? saithH5002 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635. {marvellous: or, hard, or, difficult}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; Behold, I will saveH3467 my peopleH5971 from the eastH4217 countryH776, and from the westH3996+H8121 countryH776; {the west…: Heb. the country of the going down of the sun}
And I will bringH935 them, and they shall dwellH7931 in the midstH8432 of JerusalemH3389: and they shall be my peopleH5971, and I will be their GodH430, in truthH571 and in righteousnessH6666.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; Let your handsH3027 be strongH2388, ye that hearH8085 in these daysH3117 these wordsH1697 by the mouthH6310 of the prophetsH5030, which were in the dayH3117 that the foundationH3245 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 was laidH3245, that the templeH1964 might be builtH1129.
For beforeH6440 these daysH3117 there wasH1961 no hireH7939 for manH120, nor any hireH7939 for beastH929; neither was there any peaceH7965 to him that went outH3318 or came inH935 because of the afflictionH6862: for I setH7971 all menH120 every oneH376 against his neighbourH7453. {there was…: or, the hire of man became nothing}
But now I will not be unto the residueH7611 of this peopleH5971 as in the formerH7223 daysH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.
For the seedH2233 shall be prosperousH7965; the vineH1612 shall giveH5414 her fruitH6529, and the groundH776 shall giveH5414 her increaseH2981, and the heavensH8064 shall giveH5414 their dewH2919; and I will cause the remnantH7611 of this peopleH5971 to possessH5157 all these things. {prosperous: Heb. of peace}
And it shall come to pass, that as ye were a curseH7045 among the heathenH1471, O houseH1004 of JudahH3063, and houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; so will I saveH3467 you, and ye shall be a blessingH1293: fearH3372 not, but let your handsH3027 be strongH2388.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; As I thoughtH2161 to punishH7489 you, when your fathersH1 provoked me to wrathH7107, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, and I repentedH5162 not:
So againH7725 have I thoughtH2161 in these daysH3117 to do wellH3190 unto JerusalemH3389 and to the houseH1004 of JudahH3063: fearH3372 ye not.
These are the thingsH1697 that ye shall doH6213; SpeakH1696 ye every manH376 the truthH571 to his neighbourH7453; executeH8199 the judgmentH4941 of truthH571 and peaceH7965 in your gatesH8179: {execute…: Heb. judge truth, and the judgment of peace}
And let noneH376 of you imagineH2803 evilH7451 in your heartsH3824 against his neighbourH7453; and loveH157 no falseH8267 oathH7621: for all these are things that I hateH8130, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 came unto me, sayingH559,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; The fastH6685 of the fourthH7243 month, and the fastH6685 of the fifthH2549, and the fastH6685 of the seventhH7637, and the fastH6685 of the tenthH6224, shall be to the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 joyH8342 and gladnessH8057, and cheerfulH2896 feastsH4150; therefore loveH157 the truthH571 and peaceH7965. {feasts: or, solemn, or, set times}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; It shall yet come to pass, that there shall comeH935 peopleH5971, and the inhabitantsH3427 of manyH7227 citiesH5892:
And the inhabitantsH3427 of oneH259 city shall goH1980 to anotherH259, sayingH559, Let us goH3212 speedilyH1980 to prayH2470 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and to seekH1245 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635: I will goH3212 also. {speedily: or, continually: Heb. going} {to pray…: Heb. to intreat the face of}
Yea, manyH7227 peopleH5971 and strongH6099 nationsH1471 shall comeH935 to seekH1245 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 in JerusalemH3389, and to prayH2470 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068. {to pray…: Heb. to intreat the face of}
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; In those daysH3117 it shall come to pass, that tenH6235 menH582 shall take holdH2388 out of all languagesH3956 of the nationsH1471, even shall take holdH2388 of the skirtH3671 of him that is a JewH376+H3064, sayingH559, We will goH3212 with you: for we have heardH8085 that GodH430 is with you.

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.
And to speakH559 unto the priestsH3548 which were in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, and to the prophetsH5030, sayingH559, Should I weepH1058 in the fifthH2549 monthH2320, separatingH5144 myself, as I have doneH6213 these so many yearsH8141?
SpeakH559 unto all the peopleH5971 of the landH776, and to the priestsH3548, sayingH559, When ye fastedH6684 and mournedH5594 in the fifthH2549 and seventhH7637 month, even those seventyH7657 yearsH8141, did ye at allH6684 fastH6684 unto me, even to me?
And it came to pass in the ninthH8671 yearH8141 of his reignH4427, in the tenthH6224 monthH2320, in the tenthH6218 day of the monthH2320, that NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 cameH935, he and all his armyH2428, against JerusalemH3389, and pitchedH2583 against it, and builtH1129 fortsH1785 against it round aboutH5439.
And in every provinceH4082, and in every cityH5892, whithersoeverH4725 the king'sH4428 commandmentH1697 and his decreeH1881 cameH5060, the JewsH3064 had joyH8057 and gladnessH8342, a feastH4960 and a goodH2896 dayH3117. And manyH7227 of the peopleH5971 of the landH776 became JewsH3054; for the fearH6343 of the JewsH3064 fellH5307 upon them.
These are the thingsH1697 that ye shall doH6213; SpeakH1696 ye every manH376 the truthH571 to his neighbourH7453; executeH8199 the judgmentH4941 of truthH571 and peaceH7965 in your gatesH8179: {execute…: Heb. judge truth, and the judgment of peace}
And the cityH5892 was broken upH1234, and all the menH582 of warH4421 fled by nightH3915 by the wayH1870 of the gateH8179 between two wallsH2346, which is by the king'sH4428 gardenH1588: (now the ChaldeesH3778 were against the cityH5892 round aboutH5439:) and the king wentH3212 the wayH1870 toward the plainH6160.
Now in the fifthH2549 monthH2320, in the tenthH6218 day of the monthH2320, which was the nineteenthH8672+H6240+H8141 yearH8141 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, cameH935 NebuzaradanH5018, captainH7227 of the guardH2876, which servedH5975+H6440 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, into JerusalemH3389, {captain…: or, chief marshal: Heb. chief of the executioners, or, slaughtermen} {served: Heb. stood before}
And burnedH8313 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the king'sH4428 houseH1004; and all the housesH1004 of JerusalemH3389, and all the housesH1004 of the greatH1419 men, burnedH8313 he with fireH784:
And all the armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778, that were with the captainH7227 of the guardH2876, brake downH5422 all the wallsH2346 of JerusalemH3389 round aboutH5439.
Then NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 carried away captiveH1540 certain of the poorH1803 of the peopleH5971, and the residueH3499 of the peopleH5971 that remainedH7604 in the cityH5892, and those that fell awayH5307, that fellH5307 to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and the restH3499 of the multitudeH527.
But it came to pass in the seventhH7637 monthH2320, that IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418, the sonH1121 of ElishamaH476, of the seedH2233 royalH4410, cameH935, and tenH6235 menH582 with him, and smoteH5221 GedaliahH1436, that he diedH4191, and the JewsH3064 and the ChaldeesH3778 that were with him at MizpahH4709. {royal: Heb. of the kingdom}
As the daysH3117 wherein the JewsH3064 restedH5117 from their enemiesH341, and the monthH2320 which was turnedH2015 unto them from sorrowH3015 to joyH8057, and from mourningH60 into a goodH2896 dayH3117: that they should makeH6213 them daysH3117 of feastingH4960 and joyH8057, and of sendingH4916 portionsH4490 oneH376 to anotherH7453, and giftsH4979 to the poorH34.
That he would grantG1325 unto usG2254, that we being deliveredG4506 out ofG1537 the handG5495 of ourG2257 enemiesG2190 might serveG3000 himG846 without fearG870,
And in the eleventhH6249+H6240 yearH8141 of ZedekiahH6667, in the fourthH7243 monthH2320, the ninthH8672 day of the monthH2320, the cityH5892 was broken upH1234.
Now it came to pass in the seventhH7637 monthH2320, that IshmaelH3458 the sonH1121 of NethaniahH5418 the sonH1121 of ElishamaH476, of the seedH2233 royalH4410, and the princesH7227 of the kingH4428, even tenH6235 menH582 with him, cameH935 unto GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296 to MizpahH4709; and there they did eatH398 breadH3899 togetherH3162 in MizpahH4708.
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.
IshmaelH3458 also slewH5221 all the JewsH3064 that were with him, even with GedaliahH1436, at MizpahH4709, and the ChaldeansH3778 that were foundH4672 there, and the menH582 of warH4421.
Thou hast turnedH2015 for me my mourningH4553 into dancingH4234: thou hast put offH6605 my sackclothH8242, and girdedH247 me with gladnessH8057;
InG1722 holinessG3742 andG2532 righteousnessG1343 beforeG1799 himG846, allG3956 the daysG2250 of ourG2257 lifeG2222.
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.
And in that dayH3117 thou shalt sayH559, O LORDH3068, I will praiseH3034 thee: though thou wast angryH599 with me, thine angerH639 is turned awayH7725, and thou comfortedstH5162 me.
ForG1063 the graceG5485 of GodG2316 that bringeth salvationG4992 hath appearedG2014 to allG3956 menG444, {hath…: or, to all men, hath appeared}
Then the cityH5892 was broken upH1234, and all the menH582 of warH4421 fledH1272, and went forthH3318 out of the cityH5892 by nightH3915 by the wayH1870 of the gateH8179 between the two wallsH2346, which was by the king'sH4428 gardenH1588; (now the ChaldeansH3778 were by the cityH5892 round aboutH5439:) and they wentH3212 by the wayH1870 of the plainH6160.
And the ransomedH6299 of the LORDH3068 shall returnH7725, and comeH935 to ZionH6726 with songsH7440 and everlastingH5769 joyH8057 upon their headsH7218: they shall obtainH5381 joyH8057 and gladnessH8342, and sorrowH3015 and sighingH585 shall flee awayH5127.

Therefore the redeemedH6299 of the LORDH3068 shall returnH7725, and comeH935 with singingH7440 unto ZionH6726; and everlastingH5769 joyH8057 shall be upon their headH7218: they shall obtainH5381 gladnessH8342 and joyH8057; and sorrowH3015 and mourningH585 shall flee awayH5127.

Therefore they shall comeH935 and singH7442 in the heightH4791 of ZionH6726, and shall flow togetherH5102 to the goodnessH2898 of the LORDH3068, for wheatH1715, and for wineH8492, and for oilH3323, and for the youngH1121 of the flockH6629 and of the herdH1241: and their soulH5315 shall be as a wateredH7302 gardenH1588; and they shall not sorrowH1669 any moreH3254 at all.
