Thou shalt not takeH3947 thee a wifeH802, neither shalt thou have sonsH1121 or daughtersH1323 in this placeH4725.
Then PashurH6583 smoteH5221 JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, and putH5414 him in the stocksH4115 that were in the highH5945 gateH8179 of BenjaminH1144, which was by the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
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.
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.
Then tookH3947 they JeremiahH3414, and castH7993 him into the dungeonH953 of MalchiahH4441 the sonH1121 of HammelechH4428, that was in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307: and they let downH7971 JeremiahH3414 with cordsH2256. And in the dungeonH953 there was no waterH4325, but mireH2916: so JeremiahH3414 sunkH2883 in the mireH2916. {of Hammelech: or, of the king}
Then spakeH559 the priestsH3548 and the prophetsH5030 unto the princesH8269 and to all the peopleH5971, sayingH559, This manH376 is worthyH4941 to dieH4194; for he hath prophesiedH5012 against this cityH5892, as ye have heardH8085 with your earsH241. {This man…: Heb. The judgment of death is for this man}
Therefore the princesH8269 saidH559 unto the kingH4428, We beseech thee, let this manH376 be put to deathH4191: for thusH3651 he weakenethH7503 the handsH3027 of the menH582 of warH4421 that remainH7604 in this cityH5892, and the handsH3027 of all the peopleH5971, in speakingH1696 such wordsH1697 unto them: for this manH376 seekethH1875 not the welfareH7965 of this peopleH5971, but the hurtH7451. {welfare: Heb. peace}
ZedekiahH6667 was twentyH6242 and oneH259 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 elevenH259+H6240 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389. And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was HamutalH2537, the daughterH1323 of JeremiahH3414 of LibnahH3841.
And he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, according to all that JehoiakimH3079 had doneH6213.
For through the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 it came to pass in JerusalemH3389 and JudahH3063, until he had cast them outH7993 from his presenceH6440, that ZedekiahH6667 rebelledH4775 against the kingH4428 of BabylonH894.
For through the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 it came to pass in JerusalemH3389 and JudahH3063, until he had cast them outH7993 from his presenceH6440, that ZedekiahH6667 rebelledH4775 against the kingH4428 of BabylonH894.
And it came to pass, that when JehudiH3065 had readH7121 threeH7969 or fourH702 leavesH1817, he cutH7167 it with the penknifeH8593+H5608, and castH7993 it into the fireH784 that was on the hearthH254, until all the rollH4039 was consumedH8552 in the fireH784 that was on the hearthH254.
Then tookH3947 JeremiahH3414 anotherH312 rollH4039, and gaveH5414 it to BaruchH1263 the scribeH5608, the sonH1121 of NeriahH5374; who wroteH3789 therein from the mouthH6310 of JeremiahH3414 all the wordsH1697 of the bookH5612 which JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 had burnedH8313 in the fireH784: and there were addedH3254 besides unto them manyH7227 likeH1992 wordsH1697. {like: Heb. as they}
The wordsH1697 of JeremiahH3414 the sonH1121 of HilkiahH2518, of the priestsH3548 that were in AnathothH6068 in the landH776 of BenjaminH1144:
To whom the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came in the daysH3117 of JosiahH2977 the sonH1121 of AmonH526 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, in the thirteenthH7969+H6240 yearH8141 of his reignH4427.
It came also in the daysH3117 of JehoiakimH3079 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, unto the endH8552 of the eleventhH6249+H6240 yearH8141 of ZedekiahH6667 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, unto the carrying awayH1540 of JerusalemH3389 captiveH1540 in the fifthH2549 monthH2320.
Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that I will makeH3772 a newH2319 covenantH1285 with the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and with the houseH1004 of JudahH3063:
Not according to the covenantH1285 that I madeH3772 with their fathersH1 in the dayH3117 that I tookH2388 them by the handH3027 to bring them outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714; which my covenantH1285 they brakeH6565, although I was an husbandH1166 unto them, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: {although…: or, should I have continued an husband unto them?}
But this shall be the covenantH1285 that I will makeH3772 with the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; AfterH310 those daysH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, I will putH5414 my lawH8451 in their inward partsH7130, and writeH3789 it in their heartsH3820; and will be their GodH430, and they shall be my peopleH5971.
And they shall teachH3925 no more every manH376 his neighbourH7453, and every manH376 his brotherH251, sayingH559, KnowH3045 the LORDH3068: for they shall all knowH3045 me, from the leastH6996 of them unto the greatestH1419 of them, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: for I will forgiveH5545 their iniquityH5771, and I will rememberH2142 their sinH2403 no more.
Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that I will performH6965 that goodH2896 thingH1697 which I have promisedH1696 unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and to the houseH1004 of JudahH3063.
In those daysH3117, and at that timeH6256, will I cause the BranchH6780 of righteousnessH6666 to grow upH6779 unto DavidH1732; and he shall executeH6213 judgmentH4941 and righteousnessH6666 in the landH776.
In those daysH3117 shall JudahH3063 be savedH3467, and JerusalemH3389 shall dwellH7931 safelyH983: and this is the name wherewith she shall be calledH7121, The LORD our righteousnessH3072. {The LORD…: Heb. Jehovahtsidkenu}
The wordsH1697 of JeremiahH3414 the sonH1121 of HilkiahH2518, of the priestsH3548 that were in AnathothH6068 in the landH776 of BenjaminH1144:
To whom the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came in the daysH3117 of JosiahH2977 the sonH1121 of AmonH526 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, in the thirteenthH7969+H6240 yearH8141 of his reignH4427.
It came also in the daysH3117 of JehoiakimH3079 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, unto the endH8552 of the eleventhH6249+H6240 yearH8141 of ZedekiahH6667 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, unto the carrying awayH1540 of JerusalemH3389 captiveH1540 in the fifthH2549 monthH2320.
Then the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
BeforeH2962 I formedH3335 thee in the bellyH990 I knewH3045 thee; and before thou camest forthH3318 out of the wombH7358 I sanctifiedH6942 thee, and I ordainedH5414 thee a prophetH5030 unto the nationsH1471. {ordained: Heb. gave}
Then saidH559 I, AhH162, LordH136 GODH3069! behold, I cannotH3045 speakH1696: for I am a childH5288.
But the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, SayH559 not, I am a childH5288: for thou shalt goH3212 to all that I shall sendH7971 thee, and whatsoever I commandH6680 thee thou shalt speakH1696.
Be not afraidH3372 of their facesH6440: for I am with thee to deliverH5337 thee, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Then the LORDH3068 put forthH7971 his handH3027, and touchedH5060 my mouthH6310. And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, Behold, I have putH5414 my wordsH1697 in thy mouthH6310.
SeeH7200, I have this dayH3117 setH6485 thee over the nationsH1471 and over the kingdomsH4467, to root outH5428, and to pull downH5422, and to destroyH6, and to throw downH2040, to buildH1129, and to plantH5193.
Moreover the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559, JeremiahH3414, what seestH7200 thou? And I saidH559, I seeH7200 a rodH4731 of an almond treeH8247.
Then saidH559 the LORDH3068 unto me, Thou hast wellH3190 seenH7200: for I will hastenH8245 my wordH1697 to performH6213 it.
And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me the second timeH8145, sayingH559, What seestH7200 thou? And I saidH559, I seeH7200 a seethingH5301 potH5518; and the faceH6440 thereof is towardH6440 the northH6828. {toward…: Heb. from the face of the north}
Then the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, Out of the northH6828 an evilH7451 shall break forthH6605 upon all the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776. {shall…: Heb. shall be opened}
For, lo, I will callH7121 all the familiesH4940 of the kingdomsH4467 of the northH6828, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; and they shall comeH935, and they shall setH5414 every oneH376 his throneH3678 at the enteringH6607 of the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389, and against all the wallsH2346 thereof round aboutH5439, and against all the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063.
And I will utterH1696 my judgmentsH4941 against them touchingH5921 all their wickednessH7451, who have forsakenH5800 me, and have burned incenseH6999 unto otherH312 godsH430, and worshippedH7812 the worksH4639 of their own handsH3027.
Thou therefore gird upH247 thy loinsH4975, and ariseH6965, and speakH1696 unto them all that I commandH6680 thee: be not dismayedH2865 at their facesH6440, lest I confoundH2865 thee beforeH6440 them. {confound: or, break to pieces}
For, behold, IH589 have madeH5414 thee this dayH3117 a defencedH4013 cityH5892, and an ironH1270 pillarH5982, and brasenH5178 wallsH2346 against the whole landH776, against the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, against the princesH8269 thereof, against the priestsH3548 thereof, and against the peopleH5971 of the landH776.
And they shall fightH3898 against thee; but they shall not prevailH3201 against thee; for I am with thee, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, to deliverH5337 thee.
ZedekiahH6667 was oneH259 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 elevenH259+H6240 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389. And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was HamutalH2537 the daughterH1323 of JeremiahH3414 of LibnahH3841. {began…: Heb. reigned}
And he didH6213 that which was evilH7451 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068, according to all that JehoiakimH3079 had doneH6213.
For throughH5921 the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 it came to pass in JerusalemH3389 and JudahH3063, till he had cast them outH7993 from his presenceH6440, that ZedekiahH6667 rebelledH4775 against the kingH4428 of BabylonH894.
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.
SoH935 the cityH5892 was besiegedH4692 unto the eleventhH6249+H6240 yearH8141 of kingH4428 ZedekiahH6667.
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.
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.
But the armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 pursuedH7291 afterH310 the kingH4428, and overtookH5381 ZedekiahH6667 in the plainsH6160 of JerichoH3405; and all his armyH2428 was scatteredH6327 from him.
Then they tookH8610 the kingH4428, and carried him upH5927 unto the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247 in the landH776 of HamathH2574; where he gaveH1696 judgmentH4941 upon him.
And the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 slewH7819 the sonsH1121 of ZedekiahH6667 before his eyesH5869: he slewH7819 also all the princesH8269 of JudahH3063 in RiblahH7247.
Then he put outH5786 the eyesH5869 of ZedekiahH6667; and the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 boundH631 him in chainsH5178, and carriedH935 him to BabylonH894, and putH5414 him in prisonH1004+H6486 till the dayH3117 of his deathH4194. {put out: Heb. blinded} {chains: or, fetters} {prison: Heb. house of the wards}
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 NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 leftH7604 certain of the poorH1803 of the landH776 for vinedressersH3755 and for husbandmenH3009.
Also the pillarsH5982 of brassH5178 that were in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the basesH4350, and the brasenH5178 seaH3220 that was in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, the ChaldeansH3778 brakeH7665, and carriedH5375 all the brassH5178 of them to BabylonH894.
The caldronsH5518 also, and the shovelsH3257, and the snuffersH4212, and the bowlsH4219, and the spoonsH3709, and all the vesselsH3627 of brassH5178 wherewith they ministeredH8334, took they awayH3947. {shovels: or, instruments to remove the ashes} {bowls: or, basons}
And the basonsH5592, and the firepansH4289, and the bowlsH4219, and the caldronsH5518, and the candlesticksH4501, and the spoonsH3709, and the cupsH4518; that which was of goldH2091 in goldH2091, and that which was of silverH3701 in silverH3701, tookH3947 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 awayH3947. {firepans: or, censers}
The twoH8147 pillarsH5982, oneH259 seaH3220, and twelveH8147+H6240 brasenH5178 bullsH1241 that were under the basesH4350, which kingH4428 SolomonH8010 had madeH6213 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068: the brassH5178 of all these vesselsH3627 was without weightH4948. {the brass: Heb. their brass}
And concerning the pillarsH5982, the heightH6967 of oneH259 pillarH5982 was eighteenH8083+H6240 cubitsH520; and a filletH2339 of twelveH8147+H6240 cubitsH520 did compassH5437 it; and the thicknessH5672 thereof was fourH702 fingersH676: it was hollowH5014. {fillet: Heb. thread}
And a chapiterH3805 of brassH5178 was upon it; and the heightH6967 of oneH259 chapiterH3805 was fiveH2568 cubitsH520, with networkH7639 and pomegranatesH7416 upon the chapitersH3805 round aboutH5439, all of brassH5178. The secondH8145 pillarH5982 also and the pomegranatesH7416 were like unto these.
And there were ninetyH8673 and sixH8337 pomegranatesH7416 on a sideH7307; and all the pomegranatesH7416 upon the networkH7639 were an hundredH3967 round aboutH5439.
And the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947 SeraiahH8304 the chiefH7218 priestH3548, and ZephaniahH6846 the secondH4932 priestH3548, and the threeH7969 keepersH8104 of the doorH5592: {door: Heb. threshold}
He tookH3947 also out of the cityH5892 anH259 eunuchH5631, which had the chargeH6496 of the menH582 of warH4421; and sevenH7651 menH582 of them that were nearH7200 the king'sH4428 personH6440, which were foundH4672 in the cityH5892; and the principalH8269 scribeH5608 of the hostH6635, who musteredH6633 the peopleH5971 of the landH776; and threescoreH8346 menH376 of the peopleH5971 of the landH776, that were foundH4672 in the midstH8432 of the cityH5892. {were near…: Heb. saw the face of the king} {principal…: or, scribe of the captain of the host}
So NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 tookH3947 them, and broughtH3212 them to the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 to RiblahH7247.
And the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 smoteH5221 them, and put them to deathH4191 in RiblahH7247 in the landH127 of HamathH2574. Thus JudahH3063 was carried away captiveH1540 out of his own landH776.
This is the peopleH5971 whom NebuchadrezzarH5019 carried away captiveH1540: in the seventhH7651 yearH8141 threeH7969 thousandH505 JewsH3064 and threeH7969 and twentyH6242:
In the eighteenthH8083+H6240 yearH8141 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 he carried away captiveH1540 from JerusalemH3389 eightH8083 hundredH3967 thirtyH7970 and twoH8147 personsH5315: {persons: Heb. souls}
In the threeH7969 and twentiethH6242 yearH8141 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 NebuzaradanH5018 the captainH7227 of the guardH2876 carried away captiveH1540 of the JewsH3064 sevenH7651 hundredH3967 fortyH705 and fiveH2568 personsH5315: all the personsH5315 were fourH702 thousandH505 and sixH8337 hundredH3967.
And it came to pass in the sevenH7651 and thirtiethH7970 yearH8141 of the captivityH1546 of JehoiachinH3078 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, in the twelfthH8147+H6240 monthH2320, in the fiveH2568 and twentiethH6242 day of the monthH2320, that EvilmerodachH192 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 in the first yearH8141 of his reignH4438 lifted upH5375 the headH7218 of JehoiachinH3078 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and brought him forthH3318 out of prisonH1004+H3628,
And spakeH1696 kindlyH2896 unto him, and setH5414 his throneH3678 aboveH4605 the throneH3678 of the kingsH4428 that were with him in BabylonH894, {kindly…: Heb. good things with him}
And changedH8138 his prisonH3608 garmentsH899: and he did continuallyH8548 eatH398 breadH3899 beforeH6440 him all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416.
And for his dietH737, there was a continualH8548 dietH737 givenH5414 him of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, everyH3117 dayH3117 a portionH1697 until the dayH3117 of his deathH4194, all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416. {every…: Heb. the matter of the day in his day}
Moreover the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559, JeremiahH3414, what seestH7200 thou? And I saidH559, I seeH7200 a rodH4731 of an almond treeH8247.
Then saidH559 the LORDH3068 unto me, Thou hast wellH3190 seenH7200: for I will hastenH8245 my wordH1697 to performH6213 it.
And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me the second timeH8145, sayingH559, What seestH7200 thou? And I saidH559, I seeH7200 a seethingH5301 potH5518; and the faceH6440 thereof is towardH6440 the northH6828. {toward…: Heb. from the face of the north}
Then the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, Out of the northH6828 an evilH7451 shall break forthH6605 upon all the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776. {shall…: Heb. shall be opened}
For, lo, I will callH7121 all the familiesH4940 of the kingdomsH4467 of the northH6828, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; and they shall comeH935, and they shall setH5414 every oneH376 his throneH3678 at the enteringH6607 of the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389, and against all the wallsH2346 thereof round aboutH5439, and against all the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063.
And I will utterH1696 my judgmentsH4941 against them touchingH5921 all their wickednessH7451, who have forsakenH5800 me, and have burned incenseH6999 unto otherH312 godsH430, and worshippedH7812 the worksH4639 of their own handsH3027.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 unto me, GoH1980 and getH7069 thee a linenH6593 girdleH232, and putH7760 it upon thy loinsH4975, and putH935 it not in waterH4325.
So I gotH7069 a girdleH232 according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, and putH7760 it on my loinsH4975.
And the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me the second timeH8145, sayingH559,
TakeH3947 the girdleH232 that thou hast gotH7069, which is upon thy loinsH4975, and ariseH6965, goH3212 to EuphratesH6578, and hideH2934 it there in a holeH5357 of the rockH5553.
So I wentH3212, and hidH2934 it by EuphratesH6578, as the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 me.
And it came to pass afterH7093 manyH7227 daysH3117, that the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, AriseH6965, goH3212 to EuphratesH6578, and takeH3947 the girdleH232 from thence, which I commandedH6680 thee to hideH2934 there.
Then I wentH3212 to EuphratesH6578, and diggedH2658, and tookH3947 the girdleH232 from the placeH4725 where I had hidH2934 it: and, behold, the girdleH232 was marredH7843, it was profitableH6743 for nothing.
Then the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, After this manner will I marH7843 the prideH1347 of JudahH3063, and the greatH7227 prideH1347 of JerusalemH3389.
This evilH7451 peopleH5971, which refuseH3987 to hearH8085 my wordsH1697, which walkH1980 in the imaginationH8307 of their heartH3820, and walkH3212 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430, to serveH5647 them, and to worshipH7812 them, shall even be as this girdleH232, which is goodH6743 for nothing. {imagination: or, stubbornness}
For as the girdleH232 cleavethH1692 to the loinsH4975 of a manH376, so have I caused to cleaveH1692 unto me the whole houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and the whole houseH1004 of JudahH3063, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; that they might be unto me for a peopleH5971, and for a nameH8034, and for a praiseH8416, and for a gloryH8597: but they would not hearH8085.
The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came also unto me, sayingH559,
Thou shalt not takeH3947 thee a wifeH802, neither shalt thou have sonsH1121 or daughtersH1323 in this placeH4725.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 concerning the sonsH1121 and concerning the daughtersH1323 that are bornH3205 in this placeH4725, and concerning their mothersH517 that bareH3205 them, and concerning their fathersH1 that begatH3209 them in this landH776;
They shall dieH4191 of grievousH8463 deathsH4463; they shall not be lamentedH5594; neither shall they be buriedH6912; but they shall be as dungH1828 upon the faceH6440 of the earthH127: and they shall be consumedH3615 by the swordH2719, and by famineH7458; and their carcasesH5038 shall be meatH3978 for the fowlsH5775 of heavenH8064, and for the beastsH929 of the earthH776.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, EnterH935 not into the houseH1004 of mourningH4798, neither goH3212 to lamentH5594 nor bemoanH5110 them: for I have taken awayH622 my peaceH7965 from this peopleH5971, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, even lovingkindnessH2617 and merciesH7356. {mourning: or, mourning feast}
Both the greatH1419 and the smallH6996 shall dieH4191 in this landH776: they shall not be buriedH6912, neither shall men lamentH5594 for them, nor cutH1413 themselves, nor make themselves baldH7139 for them:
Neither shall men tearH6536 themselves for them in mourningH60, to comfortH5162 them for the deadH4191; neither shall men give them the cupH3563 of consolationH8575 to drinkH8248 for their fatherH1 or for their motherH517. {tear…: or, break bread for them}
Thou shalt not also goH935 into the houseH1004 of feastingH4960, to sitH3427 with them to eatH398 and to drinkH8354.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will cause to ceaseH7673 out of this placeH4725 in your eyesH5869, and in your daysH3117, the voiceH6963 of mirthH8342, and the voiceH6963 of gladnessH8057, the voiceH6963 of the bridegroomH2860, and the voiceH6963 of the brideH3618.
The wordH1697 which came to JeremiahH3414 from the LORDH3068, sayingH559,
AriseH6965, and go downH3381 to the potter'sH3335 houseH1004, and there I will cause thee to hearH8085 my wordsH1697.
Then I went downH3381 to the potter'sH3335 houseH1004, and, beholdH2009, he wroughtH6213 a workH4399 on the wheelsH70. {wheels: or, frames, or, seats}
And the vesselH3627 that he madeH6213 of clayH2563 was marredH7843 in the handH3027 of the potterH3335: so he madeH6213 it againH7725 anotherH312 vesselH3627, as seemedH5869 goodH3474 to the potterH3335 to makeH6213 it. {of clay…: or, was marred, as clay in the hand of the potter} {made it…: Heb. returned and made, etc}
Then the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came to me, sayingH559,
O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, cannotH3201 I doH6213 with you as this potterH3335? saithH5002 the LORDH3068. Behold, as the clayH2563 is in the potter'sH3335 handH3027, so are ye in mine handH3027, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478.
At what instantH7281 I shall speakH1696 concerning a nationH1471, and concerning a kingdomH4467, to pluck upH5428, and to pull downH5422, and to destroyH6 it;
If that nationH1471, against whom I have pronouncedH1696, turnH7725 from their evilH7451, I will repentH5162 of the evilH7451 that I thoughtH2803 to doH6213 unto them.
And at what instantH7281 I shall speakH1696 concerning a nationH1471, and concerning a kingdomH4467, to buildH1129 and to plantH5193 it;
If it doH6213 evilH7451 in my sightH5869, that it obeyH8085 not my voiceH6963, then I will repentH5162 of the goodH2896, wherewith I saidH559 I would benefitH3190 them.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, GoH1980 and getH7069 a potter'sH3335 earthenH2789 bottleH1228, and take of the ancientsH2205 of the peopleH5971, and of the ancientsH2205 of the priestsH3548;
And go forthH3318 unto the valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, which is by the entryH6607 of the eastH2777 gateH8179, and proclaimH7121 there the wordsH1697 that I shall tellH1696 thee, {the east…: Heb. the sun gate}
And sayH559, HearH8085 ye the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, O kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, and inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389; Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon this placeH4725, the which whosoever hearethH8085, his earsH241 shall tingleH6750.
Because they have forsakenH5800 me, and have estrangedH5234 this placeH4725, and have burned incenseH6999 in it unto otherH312 godsH430, whom neither they nor their fathersH1 have knownH3045, nor the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, and have filledH4390 this placeH4725 with the bloodH1818 of innocentsH5355;
They have builtH1129 also the high placesH1116 of BaalH1168, to burnH8313 their sonsH1121 with fireH784 for burnt offeringsH5930 unto BaalH1168, which I commandedH6680 not, nor spakeH1696 it, neither cameH5927 it into my mindH3820:
Therefore, behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that this placeH4725 shall no more be calledH7121 TophetH8612, nor The valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, but The valleyH1516 of slaughterH2028.
And I will make voidH1238 the counselH6098 of JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389 in this placeH4725; and I will cause them to fallH5307 by the swordH2719 beforeH6440 their enemiesH341, and by the handsH3027 of them that seekH1245 their livesH5315: and their carcasesH5038 will I giveH5414 to be meatH3978 for the fowlsH5775 of the heavenH8064, and for the beastsH929 of the earthH776.
And I will makeH7760 this cityH5892 desolateH8047, and an hissingH8322; every one that passethH5674 thereby shall be astonishedH8074 and hissH8319 because of all the plaguesH4347 thereof.
And I will cause them to eatH398 the fleshH1320 of their sonsH1121 and the fleshH1320 of their daughtersH1323, and they shall eatH398 every oneH376 the fleshH1320 of his friendH7453 in the siegeH4692 and straitnessH4689, wherewith their enemiesH341, and they that seekH1245 their livesH5315, shall straitenH6693 them.
Then shalt thou breakH7665 the bottleH1228 in the sightH5869 of the menH582 that goH1980 with thee,
And shalt sayH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; Even soH3602 will I breakH7665 this peopleH5971 and this cityH5892, as one breakethH7665 a potter'sH3335 vesselH3627, that cannotH3201 be made whole againH7495: and they shall buryH6912 them in TophetH8612, till there be no placeH4725 to buryH6912. {be made…: Heb. be healed}
Thus will I doH6213 unto this placeH4725, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and to the inhabitantsH3427 thereof, and even makeH5414 this cityH5892 as TophetH8612:
And the housesH1004 of JerusalemH3389, and the housesH1004 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, shall be defiledH2931 as the placeH4725 of TophetH8612, because of all the housesH1004 upon whose roofsH1406 they have burned incenseH6999 unto all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064, and have poured outH5258 drink offeringsH5262 unto otherH312 godsH430.
The LORDH3068 shewedH7200 me, and, behold, twoH8147 basketsH1736 of figsH8384 were setH3259 beforeH6440 the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068, afterH310 that NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894 had carried away captiveH1540 JeconiahH3204 the sonH1121 of JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and the princesH8269 of JudahH3063, with the carpentersH2796 and smithsH4525, from JerusalemH3389, and had broughtH935 them to BabylonH894.
OneH259 basketH1731 had veryH3966 goodH2896 figsH8384, even like the figsH8384 that are first ripeH1073: and the otherH259 basketH1731 had veryH3966 naughtyH7451 figsH8384, which could not be eatenH398, they were so badH7455. {they…: Heb. for badness}
Then saidH559 the LORDH3068 unto me, What seestH7200 thou, JeremiahH3414? And I saidH559, FigsH8384; the goodH2896 figsH8384, veryH3966 goodH2896; and the evilH7451, veryH3966 evilH7451, that cannot be eatenH398, they are so evilH7455.
Again the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Like these goodH2896 figsH8384, so will I acknowledgeH5234 them that are carried away captiveH1546 of JudahH3063, whom I have sentH7971 out of this placeH4725 into the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778 for their goodH2896. {them…: Heb. the captivity}
For I will setH7760 mine eyesH5869 upon them for goodH2896, and I will bring them againH7725 to this landH776: and I will buildH1129 them, and not pull them downH2040; and I will plantH5193 them, and not pluck them upH5428.
And I will giveH5414 them an heartH3820 to knowH3045 me, that I am the LORDH3068: and they shall be my peopleH5971, and I will be their GodH430: for they shall returnH7725 unto me with their whole heartH3820.
And as the evilH7451 figsH8384, which cannot be eatenH398, they are so evilH7455; surely thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, So will I giveH5414 ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and his princesH8269, and the residueH7611 of JerusalemH3389, that remainH7604 in this landH776, and them that dwellH3427 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714:
And I will deliverH5414 them to be removedH2189+H2113 into all the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776 for their hurtH7451, to be a reproachH2781 and a proverbH4912, a tauntH8148 and a curseH7045, in all placesH4725 whither I shall driveH5080 them. {to be removed: Heb. for removing, or, vexation}
And I will sendH7971 the swordH2719, the famineH7458, and the pestilenceH1698, among them, till they be consumedH8552 from off the landH127 that I gaveH5414 unto them and to their fathersH1.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 to me; MakeH6213 thee bondsH4147 and yokesH4133, and putH5414 them upon thy neckH6677, {saith…: or, hath the LORD said}
And sendH7971 them to the kingH4428 of EdomH123, and to the kingH4428 of MoabH4124, and to the kingH4428 of the AmmonitesH1121+H5983, and to the kingH4428 of TyrusH6865, and to the kingH4428 of ZidonH6721, by the handH3027 of the messengersH4397 which comeH935 to JerusalemH3389 unto ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063;
And commandH6680 them to sayH559 unto their mastersH113, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Thus shall ye sayH559 unto your mastersH113; {to say…: or, concerning their masters, saying}
I have madeH6213 the earthH776, the manH120 and the beastH929 that are uponH6440 the groundH776, by my greatH1419 powerH3581 and by my outstretchedH5186 armH2220, and have givenH5414 it unto whom it seemedH5869 meetH3474 unto me.
And now have I givenH5414 all these landsH776 into the handH3027 of NebuchadnezzarH5019 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, my servantH5650; and the beastsH2416 of the fieldH7704 have I givenH5414 him also to serveH5647 him.
And all nationsH1471 shall serveH5647 him, and his sonH1121, and his son'sH1121 sonH1121, until the very timeH6256 of his landH776 comeH935: and then manyH7227 nationsH1471 and greatH1419 kingsH4428 shall serveH5647 themselves of him.
And it shall come to pass, that the nationH1471 and kingdomH4467 which will not serveH5647 the same NebuchadnezzarH5019 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and that will not putH5414 their neckH6677 under the yokeH5923 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, that nationH1471 will I punishH6485, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, with the swordH2719, and with the famineH7458, and with the pestilenceH1698, until I have consumedH8552 them by his handH3027.
Therefore hearkenH8085 not ye to your prophetsH5030, nor to your divinersH7080, nor to your dreamersH2472, nor to your enchantersH6049, nor to your sorcerersH3786, which speakH559 unto you, sayingH559, Ye shall not serveH5647 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894: {dreamers: Heb. dreams}
For they prophesyH5012 a lieH8267 unto you, to remove you farH7368 from your landH127; and that I should drive you outH5080, and ye should perishH6.
But the nationsH1471 that bringH935 their neckH6677 under the yokeH5923 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and serveH5647 him, those will I let remain stillH3240 in their own landH127, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; and they shall tillH5647 it, and dwellH3427 therein.
And JeremiahH3414 saidH559, The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto me, sayingH559,
Behold, HanameelH2601 the sonH1121 of ShallumH7967 thine uncleH1730 shall comeH935 unto thee, sayingH559, BuyH7069 thee my fieldH7704 that is in AnathothH6068: for the rightH4941 of redemptionH1353 is thine to buyH7069 it.
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.
And I boughtH7069 the fieldH7704 of HanameelH2601 my uncle'sH1730 sonH1121, that was in AnathothH6068, and weighedH8254 him the moneyH3701, even seventeenH7651+H6235 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701. {seventeen…: or, seven shekels and ten pieces of silver}
And I subscribedH3789 the evidenceH5612, and sealedH2856 it, and tookH5749 witnessesH5707, and weighedH8254 him the moneyH3701 in the balancesH3976. {subscribed…: Heb. wrote in the book}
So I tookH3947 the evidenceH5612 of the purchaseH4736, both that which was sealedH2856 according to the lawH4687 and customH2706, and that which was openH1540:
And I gaveH5414 the evidenceH5612 of the purchaseH4736 unto BaruchH1263 the sonH1121 of NeriahH5374, the sonH1121 of MaaseiahH4271, in the sightH5869 of HanameelH2601 mine uncle'sH1730 son, and in the presenceH5869 of the witnessesH5707 that subscribedH3789 the bookH5612 of the purchaseH4736, beforeH5869 all the JewsH3064 that satH3427 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307.
And I chargedH6680 BaruchH1263 beforeH5869 them, sayingH559,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; TakeH3947 these evidencesH5612, this evidenceH5612 of the purchaseH4736, both which is sealedH2856, and this evidenceH5612 which is openH1540; and putH5414 them in an earthenH2789 vesselH3627, that they may continueH5975 manyH7227 daysH3117.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; HousesH1004 and fieldsH7704 and vineyardsH3754 shall be possessed againH7069 in this landH776.
Then came the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 unto JeremiahH3414 in TahpanhesH8471, sayingH559,
TakeH3947 greatH1419 stonesH68 in thine handH3027, and hideH2934 them in the clayH4423 in the brickkilnH4404, which is at the entryH6607 of Pharaoh'sH6547 houseH1004 in TahpanhesH8471, in the sightH5869 of the menH582 of JudahH3064;
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}
The wordH1697 which JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 commandedH6680 SeraiahH8304 the sonH1121 of NeriahH5374, the sonH1121 of MaaseiahH4271, when he wentH3212 with ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 into BabylonH894 in the fourthH7243 yearH8141 of his reignH4427. And this SeraiahH8304 was a quietH4496 princeH8269. {with: or, on the behalf of} {quiet…: or, prince of Menucha, or, chief chamberlain}
So JeremiahH3414 wroteH3789 in aH259 bookH5612 all the evilH7451 that should comeH935 upon BabylonH894, even all these wordsH1697 that are writtenH3789 against BabylonH894.
And JeremiahH3414 saidH559 to SeraiahH8304, When thou comestH935 to BabylonH894, and shalt seeH7200, and shalt readH7121 all these wordsH1697;
Then shalt thou sayH559, O LORDH3068, thou hast spokenH1696 against this placeH4725, to cut it offH3772, that none shall remainH3427 in it, neither manH120 nor beastH929, but that it shall be desolateH8077 for everH5769. {desolate: Heb. desolations}
And it shall be, when thou hast made an endH3615 of readingH7121 this bookH5612, that thou shalt bindH7194 a stoneH68 to it, and castH7993 it into the midstH8432 of EuphratesH6578:
And thou shalt sayH559, Thus shall BabylonH894 sinkH8257, and shall not riseH6965 fromH6440 the evilH7451 that I will bringH935 upon her: and they shall be wearyH3286. Thus far are the wordsH1697 of JeremiahH3414.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, What iniquityH5766 have your fathersH1 foundH4672 in me, that they are gone farH7368 from me, and have walkedH3212 afterH310 vanityH1892, and are become vainH1891?
For my peopleH5971 have committedH6213 twoH8147 evilsH7451; they have forsakenH5800 me the fountainH4726 of livingH2416 watersH4325, and hewed them outH2672 cisternsH877, brokenH7665 cisternsH877, that can holdH3557 no waterH4325.
Hast thou not procuredH6213 this unto thyself, in that thou hast forsakenH5800 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, whenH6256 he ledH3212 thee by the wayH1870?
Thine own wickednessH7451 shall correctH3256 thee, and thy backslidingsH4878 shall reproveH3198 thee: knowH3045 therefore and seeH7200 that it is an evilH7451 thing and bitterH4751, that thou hast forsakenH5800 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and that my fearH6345 is not in thee, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635.
Wherefore will ye pleadH7378 with me? ye all have transgressedH6586 against me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Thine own wickednessH7451 shall correctH3256 thee, and thy backslidingsH4878 shall reproveH3198 thee: knowH3045 therefore and seeH7200 that it is an evilH7451 thing and bitterH4751, that thou hast forsakenH5800 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and that my fearH6345 is not in thee, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635.
SurelyH403 as a wifeH802 treacherouslyH898 departeth from her husbandH7453, so have ye dealt treacherouslyH898 with me, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {husband: Heb. friend}
Only acknowledgeH3045 thine iniquityH5771, that thou hast transgressedH6586 against the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, and hast scatteredH6340 thy waysH1870 to the strangersH2114 under every greenH7488 treeH6086, and ye have not obeyedH8085 my voiceH6963, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
And now, because ye have doneH6213 all these worksH4639, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and I spakeH1696 unto you, rising up earlyH7925 and speakingH1696, but ye heardH8085 not; and I calledH7121 you, but ye answeredH6030 not;
Who is the wiseH2450 manH376, that may understandH995 this? and who is he to whom the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696, that he may declareH5046 it, for what the landH776 perishethH6 and is burned upH3341 like a wildernessH4057, that none passeth throughH5674?
To whom shall I speakH1696, and give warningH5749, that they may hearH8085? behold, their earH241 is uncircumcisedH6189, and they cannotH3201 hearkenH7181: behold, the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 is unto them a reproachH2781; they have no delightH2654 in it.
HearH8085, O earthH776: behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon this peopleH5971, even the fruitH6529 of their thoughtsH4284, because they have not hearkenedH7181 unto my wordsH1697, nor to my lawH8451, but rejectedH3988 it.
Yea, the storkH2624 in the heavenH8064 knowethH3045 her appointed timesH4150; and the turtleH8449 and the craneH5483 and the swallowH5693 observeH8104 the timeH6256 of their comingH935; but my peopleH5971 knowH3045 not the judgmentH4941 of the LORDH3068.
The wiseH2450 men are ashamedH3001, they are dismayedH2865 and takenH3920: lo, they have rejectedH3988 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068; and what wisdomH2451 is in them? {The wise…: or, Have they been ashamed, etc} {what…: Heb. the wisdom of what thing}
They are turned backH7725 to the iniquitiesH5771 of their forefathersH7223+H1, which refusedH3985 to hearH8085 my wordsH1697; and they wentH1980 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 them: the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 have brokenH6565 my covenantH1285 which I madeH3772 with their fathersH1.
As keepersH8104 of a fieldH7704, are they against her round aboutH5439; because she hath been rebelliousH4784 against me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
But this peopleH5971 hath a revoltingH5637 and a rebelliousH4784 heartH3820; they are revoltedH5493 and goneH3212.
They are all grievousH5493 revoltersH5637, walkingH1980 with slandersH7400: they are brassH5178 and ironH1270; they are all corruptersH7843.
Hath a nationH1471 changedH3235 their godsH430, which are yet no godsH430? but my peopleH5971 have changedH4171 their gloryH3519 for that which doth not profitH3276.
Be astonishedH8074, O ye heavensH8064, at this, and be horribly afraidH8175, be ye veryH3966 desolateH2717, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
For my peopleH5971 have committedH6213 twoH8147 evilsH7451; they have forsakenH5800 me the fountainH4726 of livingH2416 watersH4325, and hewed them outH2672 cisternsH877, brokenH7665 cisternsH877, that can holdH3557 no waterH4325.
SayingH559 to a stockH6086, Thou art my fatherH1; and to a stoneH68, Thou hast brought me forthH3205: for they have turnedH6437 their backH6203 unto me, and not their faceH6440: but in the timeH6256 of their troubleH7451 they will sayH559, AriseH6965, and saveH3467 us. {brought…: or, begotten me} {their back: Heb. the hinder part of the neck}
The childrenH1121 gatherH3950 woodH6086, and the fathersH1 kindleH1197 the fireH784, and the womenH802 kneadH3888 their doughH1217, to makeH6213 cakesH3561 to the queenH4446 of heavenH8064, and to pour outH5258 drink offeringsH5262 unto otherH312 godsH430, that they may provoke me to angerH3707. {queen…: or, frame, or, workmanship of heaven}
For the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 have doneH6213 evilH7451 in my sightH5869, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: they have setH7760 their abominationsH8251 in the houseH1004 which is calledH7121 by my nameH8034, to polluteH2930 it.
And they have builtH1129 the high placesH1116 of TophetH8612, which is in the valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, to burnH8313 their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 in the fireH784; which I commandedH6680 them not, neither cameH5927 it into my heartH3820. {came…: Heb. came it upon my heart}
And the LORDH3068 saithH559, Because they have forsakenH5800 my lawH8451 which I setH5414 beforeH6440 them, and have not obeyedH8085 my voiceH6963, neither walkedH1980 therein;
They are turned backH7725 to the iniquitiesH5771 of their forefathersH7223+H1, which refusedH3985 to hearH8085 my wordsH1697; and they wentH1980 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 them: the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 have brokenH6565 my covenantH1285 which I madeH3772 with their fathersH1.
Then shall the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 and inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 goH1980, and cryH2199 unto the godsH430 unto whom they offer incenseH6999: but they shall not saveH3467 them at allH3467 in the timeH6256 of their troubleH7451. {trouble: Heb. evil}
For according to the numberH4557 of thy citiesH5892 were thy godsH430, O JudahH3063; and according to the numberH4557 of the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389 have ye set upH7760 altarsH4196 to that shameful thingH1322, even altarsH4196 to burn incenseH6999 unto BaalH1168. {shameful…: Heb. shame}
And yet for all this her treacherousH901 sisterH269 JudahH3063 hath not turnedH7725 unto me with her whole heartH3820, but feignedlyH8267, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {feignedly: Heb. in falsehood}
And though they sayH559, The LORDH3068 livethH2416; surely they swearH7650 falselyH8267.
Will ye stealH1589, murderH7523, and commit adulteryH5003, and swearH7650 falselyH8267, and burn incenseH6999 unto BaalH1168, and walkH1980 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 whom ye knowH3045 not;
And comeH935 and standH5975 beforeH6440 me in this houseH1004, which is calledH7121 by my nameH8034, and sayH559, We are deliveredH5337 to doH6213 all these abominationsH8441? {which…: Heb. whereupon my name is called}
But they hearkenedH8085 not, nor inclinedH5186 their earH241, but walkedH3212 in the counselsH4156 and in the imaginationH8307 of their evilH7451 heartH3820, and went backwardH268, and not forwardH6440. {imagination: or, stubbornness} {went: Heb. were}
Thou hast forsakenH5203 me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, thou art goneH3212 backwardH268: therefore will I stretch outH5186 my handH3027 against thee, and destroyH7843 thee; I am wearyH3811 with repentingH5162.
In vainH7723 have I smittenH5221 your childrenH1121; they receivedH3947 no correctionH4148: your own swordH2719 hath devouredH398 your prophetsH5030, like a destroyingH7843 lionH738.
O generationH1755, seeH7200 ye the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068. Have I been a wildernessH4057 unto IsraelH3478? a landH776 of darknessH3991? wherefore sayH559 my peopleH5971, We are lordsH7300; we will comeH935 no more unto thee? {We are…: Heb. We have dominion}
Can a maidH1330 forgetH7911 her ornamentsH5716, or a brideH3618 her attireH7196? yet my peopleH5971 have forgottenH7911 me daysH3117 without numberH4557.
Why trimmestH3190 thou thy wayH1870 to seekH1245 loveH160? therefore hast thou also taughtH3925 the wicked onesH7451 thy waysH1870.
Also in thy skirtsH3671 is foundH4672 the bloodH1818 of the soulsH5315 of the poorH34 innocentsH5355: I have not foundH4672 it by secret searchH4290, but upon all these. {secret…: Heb. digging}
Yet thou sayestH559, Because I am innocentH5352, surely his angerH639 shall turnH7725 from me. Behold, I will pleadH8199 with thee, because thou sayestH559, I have not sinnedH2398.
Were they ashamedH3001 when they had committedH6213 abominationH8441? nayH1571, they were not at allH954 ashamedH954, neitherH1571 couldH3045 they blushH3637: therefore they shall fallH5307 among them that fallH5307: at the timeH6256 that I visitH6485 them they shall be cast downH3782, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
But thou shalt sayH559 unto them, This is a nationH1471 that obeyethH8085 not the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 their GodH430, nor receivethH3947 correctionH4148: truthH530 is perishedH6, and is cut offH3772 from their mouthH6310. {correction: or, instruction}
HowH335 shall I pardonH5545 thee for thisH2063? thy childrenH1121 have forsakenH5800 me, and swornH7650 by them that are noH3808 godsH430: when I had fed them to the fullH7650, they then committed adulteryH5003, and assembled themselves by troopsH1413 in the harlots'H2181 housesH1004.
They were as fedH2109 horsesH5483 in the morningH7904: every oneH376 neighedH6670 after his neighbour'sH7453 wifeH802.
Will ye stealH1589, murderH7523, and commit adulteryH5003, and swearH7650 falselyH8267, and burn incenseH6999 unto BaalH1168, and walkH1980 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 whom ye knowH3045 not;
Oh thatH5414 my headH7218 were watersH4325, and mine eyesH5869 a fountainH4726 of tearsH1832, that I might weepH1058 dayH3119 and nightH3915 for the slainH2491 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971! {Oh…: Heb. Who will give my head, etc}
Why trimmestH3190 thou thy wayH1870 to seekH1245 loveH160? therefore hast thou also taughtH3925 the wicked onesH7451 thy waysH1870.
Also in thy skirtsH3671 is foundH4672 the bloodH1818 of the soulsH5315 of the poorH34 innocentsH5355: I have not foundH4672 it by secret searchH4290, but upon all these. {secret…: Heb. digging}
They are waxen fatH8080, they shineH6245: yea, they overpassH5674 the deedsH1697 of the wickedH7451: they judgeH1777 not the causeH1779, the cause of the fatherlessH3490, yet they prosperH6743; and the rightH4941 of the needyH34 do they not judgeH8199.
For from the leastH6996 of them even unto the greatestH1419 of them every one is givenH1214 to covetousnessH1215; and from the prophetH5030 even unto the priestH3548 every one dealethH6213 falselyH8267.
Therefore will I giveH5414 their wivesH802 unto othersH312, and their fieldsH7704 to them that shall inheritH3423 them: for every one from the leastH6996 even unto the greatestH1419 is givenH1214 to covetousnessH1215, from the prophetH5030 even unto the priestH3548 every one dealethH6213 falselyH8267.
Oh thatH5414 I had in the wildernessH4057 a lodging placeH4411 of wayfaring menH732; that I might leaveH5800 my peopleH5971, and goH3212 from them! for they be all adulterersH5003, an assemblyH6116 of treacherous menH898.
And they bendH1869 their tonguesH3956 like their bowH7198 for liesH8267: but they are not valiantH1396 for the truthH530 upon the earthH776; for they proceedH3318 from evilH7451 to evilH7451, and they knowH3045 not me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Take ye heedH8104 every oneH376 of his neighbourH7453, and trustH982 ye not in any brotherH251: for every brotherH251 will utterlyH6117 supplantH6117, and every neighbourH7453 will walkH1980 with slandersH7400. {neighbour: or, friend}
And they will deceiveH2048 every oneH376 his neighbourH7453, and will not speakH1696 the truthH571: they have taughtH3925 their tongueH3956 to speakH1696 liesH8267, and wearyH3811 themselves to commit iniquityH5753. {deceive: or, mock}
Thine habitationH3427 is in the midstH8432 of deceitH4820; through deceitH4820 they refuseH3985 to knowH3045 me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, Behold, I will meltH6884 them, and tryH974 them; for how shall I doH6213 forH6440 the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971?
Their tongueH3956 is as an arrowH2671 shot outH7819; it speakethH1696 deceitH4820: one speakethH1696 peaceablyH7965 to his neighbourH7453 with his mouthH6310, but in heartH7130 he layethH7760 his waitH696. {in heart: Heb. in the midst of him} {his wait: or, wait for him}
The priestsH3548 saidH559 not, Where is the LORDH3068? and they that handleH8610 the lawH8451 knewH3045 me not: the pastorsH7462 also transgressedH6586 against me, and the prophetsH5030 prophesiedH5012 by BaalH1168, and walkedH1980 afterH310 things that do not profitH3276.
The prophetsH5030 prophesyH5012 falselyH8267, and the priestsH3548 bear ruleH7287 by their meansH3027; and my peopleH5971 loveH157 to have it so: and what will ye doH6213 in the endH319 thereof? {bear…: or, take into their hands}
How do ye sayH559, We are wiseH2450, and the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068 is with us? Lo, certainlyH403 in vainH8267 madeH6213 he it; the penH5842 of the scribesH5608 is in vainH8267. {in vain made…: or, the false pen of the scribes worketh for falsehood}
For the pastorsH7462 are become brutishH1197, and have not soughtH1875 the LORDH3068: therefore they shall not prosperH7919, and all their flocksH4830 shall be scatteredH6327.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 concerning the prophetsH5030 that prophesyH5012 in my nameH8034, and I sentH7971 them not, yet they sayH559, SwordH2719 and famineH7458 shall not be in this landH776; By swordH2719 and famineH7458 shall those prophetsH5030 be consumedH8552.
Then will I makeH5414 this houseH1004 like ShilohH7887, and will makeH5414 this cityH5892 a curseH7045 to all the nationsH1471 of the earthH776.
For ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 had shut him upH3607, sayingH559, Wherefore dost thou prophesyH5012, and sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Behold, I will giveH5414 this cityH5892 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and he shall takeH3920 it;
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; GoH1980 and speakH559 to ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and tellH559 him, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Behold, I will giveH5414 this cityH5892 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and he shall burnH8313 it with fireH784:
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 this whole landH776 shall be a desolationH2723, and an astonishmentH8047; and these nationsH1471 shall serveH5647 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 seventyH7657 yearsH8141.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, That afterH6310 seventyH7657 yearsH8141 be accomplishedH4390 at BabylonH894 I will visitH6485 you, and performH6965 my goodH2896 wordH1697 toward you, in causing you to returnH7725 to this placeH4725.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Behold, I will bring againH7725 the captivityH7622 of Jacob'sH3290 tentsH168, and have mercyH7355 on his dwellingplacesH4908; and the cityH5892 shall be buildedH1129 upon her own heapH8510, and the palaceH759 shall remainH3427 after the mannerH4941 thereof. {heap: or, little hill}
Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that I will makeH3772 a newH2319 covenantH1285 with the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and with the houseH1004 of JudahH3063:
Not according to the covenantH1285 that I madeH3772 with their fathersH1 in the dayH3117 that I tookH2388 them by the handH3027 to bring them outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714; which my covenantH1285 they brakeH6565, although I was an husbandH1166 unto them, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: {although…: or, should I have continued an husband unto them?}
But this shall be the covenantH1285 that I will makeH3772 with the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; AfterH310 those daysH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, I will putH5414 my lawH8451 in their inward partsH7130, and writeH3789 it in their heartsH3820; and will be their GodH430, and they shall be my peopleH5971.
And they shall teachH3925 no more every manH376 his neighbourH7453, and every manH376 his brotherH251, sayingH559, KnowH3045 the LORDH3068: for they shall all knowH3045 me, from the leastH6996 of them unto the greatestH1419 of them, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: for I will forgiveH5545 their iniquityH5771, and I will rememberH2142 their sinH2403 no more.
In those daysH3117 the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 shall walkH3212 with the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and they shall comeH935 togetherH3162 out of the landH776 of the northH6828 to the landH776 that I have given for an inheritanceH5157 unto your fathersH1. {with: or, to} {given…: or, caused your fathers to possess}
And I will cause the captivityH7622 of JudahH3063 and the captivityH7622 of IsraelH3478 to returnH7725, and will buildH1129 them, as at the firstH7223.
In those daysH3117, and in that timeH6256, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 shall comeH935, they and the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 togetherH3162, goingH1980 and weepingH1058: they shall goH3212, and seekH1245 the LORDH3068 their GodH430.
They shall askH7592 the wayH1870 to ZionH6726 with their facesH6440 thitherwardH2008, saying, ComeH935, and let us joinH3867 ourselves to the LORDH3068 in a perpetualH5769 covenantH1285 that shall not be forgottenH7911.
Therefore, behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that it shall no more be saidH559, The LORDH3068 livethH2416, that brought upH5927 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714;
But, The LORDH3068 livethH2416, that brought upH5927 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 from the landH776 of the northH6828, and from all the landsH776 whither he had drivenH5080 them: and I will bring them againH7725 into their landH127 that I gaveH5414 unto their fathersH1.
Behold, I will sendH7971 for manyH7227 fishersH1771+H1728, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and they shall fishH1770 them; and afterH310 will I sendH7971 for manyH7227 huntersH6719, and they shall huntH6679 them from every mountainH2022, and from every hillH1389, and out of the holesH5357 of the rocksH5553.
For mine eyesH5869 are upon all their waysH1870: they are not hidH5641 from my faceH6440, neither is their iniquityH5771 hidH6845 fromH5048 mine eyesH5869.
And firstH7223 I will recompenseH7999 their iniquityH5771 and their sinH2403 doubleH4932; because they have defiledH2490 my landH776, they have filledH4390 mine inheritanceH5159 with the carcasesH5038 of their detestableH8251 and abominable thingsH8441.
O LORDH3068, my strengthH5797, and my fortressH4581, and my refugeH4498 in the dayH3117 of afflictionH6869, the GentilesH1471 shall comeH935 unto thee from the endsH657 of the earthH776, and shall sayH559, Surely our fathersH1 have inheritedH5157 liesH8267, vanityH1892, and things wherein there is no profitH3276.
Shall a manH120 makeH6213 godsH430 unto himself, and they are no godsH430?
Therefore, behold, I will this onceH6471 cause them to knowH3045, I will cause them to knowH3045 mine handH3027 and my mightH1369; and they shall knowH3045 that my nameH8034 is The LORDH3068. {The LORD: or, JEHOVAH}
And I will gatherH6908 the remnantH7611 of my flockH6629 out of all countriesH776 whither I have drivenH5080 them, and will bring them againH7725 to their foldsH5116; and they shall be fruitfulH6509 and increaseH7235.
And I will set upH6965 shepherdsH7462 over them which shall feedH7462 them: and they shall fearH3372 no more, nor be dismayedH2865, neither shall they be lackingH6485, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
For, lo, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that I will bring againH7725 the captivityH7622 of my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063, saithH559 the LORDH3068: and I will cause them to returnH7725 to the landH776 that I gaveH5414 to their fathersH1, and they shall possessH3423 it.
At the same timeH6256, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, will I be the GodH430 of all the familiesH4940 of IsraelH3478, and they shall be my peopleH5971.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, The peopleH5971 which were leftH8300 of the swordH2719 foundH4672 graceH2580 in the wildernessH4057; even IsraelH3478, when I wentH1980 to cause him to restH7280.
The LORDH3068 hath appearedH7200 of oldH7350 unto me, saying, Yea, I have lovedH157 thee with an everlastingH5769 loveH160: therefore with lovingkindnessH2617 have I drawnH4900 thee. {of…: Heb. from afar} {with lovingkindness…: have I extended lovingkindness unto thee}
Again I will buildH1129 thee, and thou shalt be builtH1129, O virginH1330 of IsraelH3478: thou shalt again be adornedH5710 with thy tabretsH8596, and shalt go forthH3318 in the dancesH4234 of them that make merryH7832. {tabrets: or, timbrels}
Thou shalt yet plantH5193 vinesH3754 upon the mountainsH2022 of SamariaH8111: the plantersH5193 shall plantH5193, and shall eat them as common thingsH2490. {eat…: Heb. profane them}
For there shall beH3426 a dayH3117, that the watchmenH5341 upon the mountH2022 EphraimH669 shall cryH7121, AriseH6965 ye, and let us go upH5927 to ZionH6726 unto the LORDH3068 our GodH430.
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; SingH7442 with gladnessH8057 for JacobH3290, and shoutH6670 among the chiefH7218 of the nationsH1471: publishH8085 ye, praiseH1984 ye, and sayH559, O LORDH3068, saveH3467 thy peopleH5971, the remnantH7611 of IsraelH3478.
Behold, I will bringH935 them from the northH6828 countryH776, and gatherH6908 them from the coastsH3411 of the earthH776, and with them the blindH5787 and the lameH6455, the woman with childH2030 and her that travaileth with childH3205 togetherH3162: a greatH1419 companyH6951 shall returnH7725 thither.
They shall comeH935 with weepingH1065, and with supplicationsH8469 will I leadH2986 them: I will cause them to walkH3212 by the riversH5158 of watersH4325 in a straightH3477 wayH1870, wherein they shall not stumbleH3782: for I am a fatherH1 to IsraelH3478, and EphraimH669 is my firstbornH1060. {supplications: or, favours}
HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, O ye nationsH1471, and declareH5046 it in the islesH339 afar offH4801, and sayH559, He that scatteredH2219 IsraelH3478 will gatherH6908 him, and keepH8104 him, as a shepherdH7462 doth his flockH5739.
For the LORDH3068 hath redeemedH6299 JacobH3290, and ransomedH1350 him from the handH3027 of him that was strongerH2389 than he.
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.
Then shall the virginH1330 rejoiceH8055 in the danceH4234, both young menH970 and oldH2205 togetherH3162: for I will turnH2015 their mourningH60 into joyH8342, and will comfortH5162 them, and make them rejoiceH8055 from their sorrowH3015.
And I will satiateH7301 the soulH5315 of the priestsH3548 with fatnessH1880, and my peopleH5971 shall be satisfiedH7646 with my goodnessH2898, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; A voiceH6963 was heardH8085 in RamahH7414, lamentationH5092, and bitterH8563 weepingH1065; RahelH7354 weepingH1058 for her childrenH1121 refusedH3985 to be comfortedH5162 for her childrenH1121, because they were not.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; RefrainH4513 thy voiceH6963 from weepingH1065, and thine eyesH5869 from tearsH1832: for thy workH6468 shall beH3426 rewardedH7939, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; and they shall come againH7725 from the landH776 of the enemyH341.
And there isH3426 hopeH8615 in thine endH319, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that thy childrenH1121 shall come againH7725 to their own borderH1366.
I have surelyH8085 heardH8085 EphraimH669 bemoaningH5110 himself thus; Thou hast chastisedH3256 me, and I was chastisedH3256, as a bullockH5695 unaccustomedH3808+H3925 to the yoke: turnH7725 thou me, and I shall be turnedH7725; for thou art the LORDH3068 my GodH430.
Surely afterH310 that I was turnedH7725, I repentedH5162; and afterH310 that I was instructedH3045, I smoteH5606 upon my thighH3409: I was ashamedH954, yea, even confoundedH3637, because I did bearH5375 the reproachH2781 of my youthH5271.
Is EphraimH669 my dearH3357 sonH1121? is he a pleasantH8191 childH3206? for sinceH1767 I spakeH1696 against him, I do earnestlyH2142 rememberH2142 him still: therefore my bowelsH4578 are troubledH1993 for him; I will surelyH7355 have mercyH7355 upon him, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. {are…: Heb. sound}
Set thee upH5324 waymarksH6725, makeH7760 thee high heapsH8564: setH7896 thine heartH3820 toward the highwayH4546, even the wayH1870 which thou wentestH1980: turn againH7725, O virginH1330 of IsraelH3478, turn againH7725 to these thy citiesH5892.
How long wilt thou go aboutH2559, O thou backslidingH7728 daughterH1323? for the LORDH3068 hath createdH1254 a new thingH2319 in the earthH776, A womanH5347 shall compassH5437 a manH1397.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; As yet they shall useH559 this speechH1697 in the landH776 of JudahH3063 and in the citiesH5892 thereof, when I shall bring againH7725 their captivityH7622; The LORDH3068 blessH1288 thee, O habitationH5116 of justiceH6664, and mountainH2022 of holinessH6944.
And there shall dwellH3427 in JudahH3063 itself, and in all the citiesH5892 thereof togetherH3162, husbandmenH406, and they that go forthH5265 with flocksH5739.
For I have satiatedH7301 the wearyH5889 soulH5315, and I have replenishedH4390 every sorrowfulH1669 soulH5315.
Behold, I will gather them outH6908 of all countriesH776, whither I have drivenH5080 them in mine angerH639, and in my furyH2534, and in greatH1419 wrathH7110; and I will bring them againH7725 unto this placeH4725, and I will cause them to dwellH3427 safelyH983:
And they shall be my peopleH5971, and I will be their GodH430:
And I will giveH5414 them oneH259 heartH3820, and oneH259 wayH1870, that they may fearH3372 me for everH3117, for the goodH2896 of them, and of their childrenH1121 afterH310 them: {for ever: Heb. all days}
And I will makeH3772 an everlastingH5769 covenantH1285 with them, that I will not turn awayH7725 from themH310, to do them goodH3190; but I will putH5414 my fearH3374 in their heartsH3824, that they shall not departH5493 from me. {from them: Heb. from after them}
Yea, I will rejoiceH7797 over them to do them goodH2895, and I will plantH5193 them in this landH776 assuredlyH571 with my whole heartH3820 and with my whole soulH5315. {assuredly: Heb. in truth, or, stability}
For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Like as I have broughtH935 all this greatH1419 evilH7451 upon this peopleH5971, so will I bringH935 upon them all the goodH2896 that I have promisedH1696 them.
And fieldsH7704 shall be boughtH7069 in this landH776, whereof ye sayH559, It is desolateH8077 without manH120 or beastH929; it is givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778.
Men shall buyH7069 fieldsH7704 for moneyH3701, and subscribeH3789 evidencesH5612, and sealH2856 them, and takeH5749 witnessesH5707 in the landH776 of BenjaminH1144, and in the places aboutH5439 JerusalemH3389, and in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and in the citiesH5892 of the mountainsH2022, and in the citiesH5892 of the valleyH8219, and in the citiesH5892 of the southH5045: for I will cause their captivityH7622 to returnH7725, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
And their noblesH117 shall be of themselves, and their governorH4910 shall proceedH3318 from the midstH7130 of them; and I will cause him to draw nearH7126, and he shall approachH5066 unto me: for who is this that engagedH6148 his heartH3820 to approachH5066 unto me? saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
In those daysH3117, and at that timeH6256, will I cause the BranchH6780 of righteousnessH6666 to grow upH6779 unto DavidH1732; and he shall executeH6213 judgmentH4941 and righteousnessH6666 in the landH776.
Behold, I will bringH5927 it healthH724 and cureH4832, and I will cureH7495 them, and will revealH1540 unto them the abundanceH6283 of peaceH7965 and truthH571.
And I will cause the captivityH7622 of JudahH3063 and the captivityH7622 of IsraelH3478 to returnH7725, and will buildH1129 them, as at the firstH7223.
And I will cleanseH2891 them from all their iniquityH5771, whereby they have sinnedH2398 against me; and I will pardonH5545 all their iniquitiesH5771, whereby they have sinnedH2398, and whereby they have transgressedH6586 against me.
In those daysH3117 shall JudahH3063 be savedH3467, and JerusalemH3389 shall dwellH7931 safelyH983: and this is the name wherewith she shall be calledH7121, The LORD our righteousnessH3072. {The LORD…: Heb. Jehovahtsidkenu}
