How is the goldH2091 become dimH6004! how is the mostH2896 fine goldH3800 changedH8132! the stonesH68 of the sanctuaryH6944 are poured outH8210 in the topH7218 of every streetH2351.
The preciousH3368 sonsH1121 of ZionH6726, comparableH5537 to fine goldH6337, how are they esteemedH2803 as earthenH2789 pitchersH5035, the workH4639 of the handsH3027 of the potterH3335!
Even the sea monstersH8577 draw outH2502 the breastH7699, they give suckH3243 to their young onesH1482: the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971 is become cruelH393, like the ostrichesH3283 in the wildernessH4057. {sea…: or, sea calves}
The tongueH3956 of the sucking childH3243 cleavethH1692 to the roof of his mouthH2441 for thirstH6772: the young childrenH5768 askH7592 breadH3899, and no man breakethH6566 it unto them.
They that did feedH398 delicatelyH4574 are desolateH8074 in the streetsH2351: they that were brought upH539 in scarletH8438 embraceH2263 dunghillsH830.
For the punishment of the iniquityH5771 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971 is greaterH1431 than the punishmentH2403 of the sin of SodomH5467, that was overthrownH2015 as in a momentH7281, and no handsH3027 stayedH2342 on her. {punishment of the iniquity: or, iniquity}
Her NazaritesH5139 were purerH2141 than snowH7950, they were whiterH6705 than milkH2461, they were more ruddyH119 in bodyH6106 than rubiesH6443, their polishingH1508 was of sapphireH5601:
Their visageH8389 is blackerH2821 than a coalH7815; they are not knownH5234 in the streetsH2351: their skinH5785 cleavethH6821 to their bonesH6106; it is witheredH3001, it is become like a stickH6086. {blacker…: Heb. darker than blackness}
They that be slainH2491 with the swordH2719 are betterH2896 than they that be slainH2491 with hungerH7458: for theseH1992 pine awayH2100, strickenH1856 through for want of the fruitsH8570 of the fieldH7704. {pine…: Heb. flow out}
The handsH3027 of the pitifulH7362 womenH802 have soddenH1310 their own childrenH3206: they were their meatH1262 in the destructionH7667 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971.
The LORDH3068 hath accomplishedH3615 his furyH2534; he hath poured outH8210 his fierceH2740 angerH639, and hath kindledH3341 a fireH784 in ZionH6726, and it hath devouredH398 the foundationsH3247 thereof.

The handsH3027 of the pitifulH7362 womenH802 have soddenH1310 their own childrenH3206: they were their meatH1262 in the destructionH7667 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971.
The LORDH3068 hath accomplishedH3615 his furyH2534; he hath poured outH8210 his fierceH2740 angerH639, and hath kindledH3341 a fireH784 in ZionH6726, and it hath devouredH398 the foundationsH3247 thereof.
The kingsH4428 of the earthH776, and all the inhabitantsH3427 of the worldH8398, would not have believedH539 that the adversaryH6862 and the enemyH341 should have enteredH935 into the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389.
For the sinsH2403 of her prophetsH5030, and the iniquitiesH5771 of her priestsH3548, that have shedH8210 the bloodH1818 of the justH6662 in the midstH7130 of her,
They have wanderedH5128 as blindH5787 men in the streetsH2351, they have pollutedH1351 themselves with bloodH1818, so that men couldH3201 notH3808 touchH5060 their garmentsH3830. {so…: or, in that they could not but touch}
They criedH7121 unto them, DepartH5493 ye; it is uncleanH2931; departH5493, departH5493, touchH5060 not: when they fled awayH5132 and wanderedH5128, they saidH559 among the heathenH1471, They shall no moreH3254 sojournH1481 there. {it…: or, ye polluted}
The angerH6440 of the LORDH3068 hath dividedH2505 them; he will no moreH3254 regardH5027 them: they respectedH5375 not the personsH6440 of the priestsH3548, they favouredH2603 not the eldersH2205. {anger: or, face}
As for us, our eyesH5869 as yet failedH3615 for our vainH1892 helpH5833: in our watchingH6836 we have watchedH6822 for a nationH1471 that could not saveH3467 us.
They huntH6679 our stepsH6806, that we cannot goH3212 in our streetsH7339: our endH7093 is nearH7126, our daysH3117 are fulfilledH4390; for our endH7093 is comeH935.
Our persecutorsH7291 are swifterH7031 than the eaglesH5404 of the heavenH8064: they pursuedH1814 us upon the mountainsH2022, they laid waitH693 for us in the wildernessH4057.
The breathH7307 of our nostrilsH639, the anointedH4899 of the LORDH3068, was takenH3920 in their pitsH7825, of whom we saidH559, Under his shadowH6738 we shall liveH2421 among the heathenH1471.
RejoiceH7797 and be gladH8055, O daughterH1323 of EdomH123, that dwellestH3427 in the landH776 of UzH5780; the cupH3563 also shall passH5674 through unto thee: thou shalt be drunkenH7937, and shalt make thyself nakedH6168.
The punishment of thine iniquityH5771 is accomplishedH8552, O daughterH1323 of ZionH6726; he will no moreH3254 carry thee away into captivityH1540: he will visitH6485 thine iniquityH5771, O daughterH1323 of EdomH123; he will discoverH1540 thy sinsH2403. {The…: or, Thine iniquity} {discover…: or, carry thee captive for thy sins}
How is the goldH2091 become dimH6004! how is the mostH2896 fine goldH3800 changedH8132! the stonesH68 of the sanctuaryH6944 are poured outH8210 in the topH7218 of every streetH2351.
The preciousH3368 sonsH1121 of ZionH6726, comparableH5537 to fine goldH6337, how are they esteemedH2803 as earthenH2789 pitchersH5035, the workH4639 of the handsH3027 of the potterH3335!

They that be slainH2491 with the swordH2719 are betterH2896 than they that be slainH2491 with hungerH7458: for theseH1992 pine awayH2100, strickenH1856 through for want of the fruitsH8570 of the fieldH7704. {pine…: Heb. flow out}
The handsH3027 of the pitifulH7362 womenH802 have soddenH1310 their own childrenH3206: they were their meatH1262 in the destructionH7667 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971.
The LORDH3068 hath accomplishedH3615 his furyH2534; he hath poured outH8210 his fierceH2740 angerH639, and hath kindledH3341 a fireH784 in ZionH6726, and it hath devouredH398 the foundationsH3247 thereof.
And in the fifthH2549 monthH2320, on the seventhH7651 day of the monthH2320, which is the nineteenthH8672+H6240+H8141 yearH8141 of kingH4428 NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, cameH935 NebuzaradanH5018, captainH7227 of the guardH2876, a servantH5650 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, unto JerusalemH3389: {captain…: or, chief marshal}
And he burntH8313 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and all the housesH1004 of JerusalemH3389, and every greatH1419 man's houseH1004 burntH8313 he with fireH784.
And all the armyH2428 of the ChaldeesH3778, that were with the captainH7227 of the guardH2876, brake downH5422 the wallsH2346 of JerusalemH3389 round aboutH5439.
And the LORDH3068 their GodH430 shall saveH3467 them in that dayH3117 as the flockH6629 of his peopleH5971: for they shall be as the stonesH68 of a crownH5145, lifted up as an ensignH5264 upon his landH127.
And I will bringH935 the third partH7992 through the fireH784, and will refineH6884 them as silverH3701 is refinedH6884, and will tryH974 them as goldH2091 is triedH974: they shall callH7121 on my nameH8034, and I will hearH6030 them: I will sayH559, It is my peopleH5971: and they shall sayH559, The LORDH3068 is my GodH430.
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.
Then cameH935 JeremiahH3414 from TophetH8612, whither the LORDH3068 had sentH7971 him to prophesyH5012; and he stoodH5975 in the courtH2691 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004; and saidH559 to all the peopleH5971,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will bringH935 upon this cityH5892 and upon all her townsH5892 all the evilH7451 that I have pronouncedH1696 against it, because they have hardenedH7185 their necksH6203, that they might not hearH8085 my wordsH1697.
IsraelH3478 is swallowed upH1104: now shall they be among the GentilesH1471 as a vesselH3627 wherein is no pleasureH2656.
Is this manH376 ConiahH3659 a despisedH959 brokenH5310 idolH6089? is he a vesselH3627 wherein is no pleasureH2656? wherefore are they cast outH7993, he and his seedH2233, and are castH2904 into a landH776 which they knowH3045 not?
The tenderH7390 and delicateH6028 woman among you, which would not adventureH5254 to setH3322 the soleH3709 of her footH7272 upon the groundH776 for delicatenessH6026 and tendernessH7391, her eyeH5869 shall be evilH3415 toward the husbandH376 of her bosomH2436, and toward her sonH1121, and toward her daughterH1323,
And toward her young oneH7988 that cometh outH3318 from between her feetH7272, and toward her childrenH1121 which she shall bearH3205: for she shall eatH398 them for wantH2640 of all things secretlyH5643 in the siegeH4692 and straitnessH4689, wherewith thine enemyH341 shall distressH6693 thee in thy gatesH8179. {young one: Heb. afterbirth}
I am a brotherH251 to dragonsH8577, and a companionH7453 to owlsH1323+H3284. {owls: or, ostriches}
Gavest thou the goodlyH7443 wingsH3671 unto the peacocksH5965? or wingsH84 and feathersH2624 unto the ostrichH5133? {wings and…: or, the feathers of the stork and ostrich}
Which leavethH5800 her eggsH1000 in the earthH776, and warmethH2552 them in dustH6083,
And forgettethH7911 that the footH7272 may crushH2115 them, or that the wildH7704 beastH2416 may breakH1758 them.
She is hardenedH7188 against her young onesH1121, as though they were notH3808 hers: her labourH3018 is in vainH7385 without fearH6343;
For the mountainsH2022 will I take upH5375 a weepingH1065 and wailingH5092, and for the habitationsH4999 of the wildernessH4057 a lamentationH7015, because they are burned upH3341, so that noneH376 can passH5674 through them; neither can men hearH8085 the voiceH6963 of the cattleH4735; both the fowlH5775 of the heavensH8064 and the beastH929 are fledH5074; they are goneH1980. {habitations: or, pastures} {burned up: or, desolate} {both…: Heb. from the fowl even to, etc}
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}
So that the manH376 that is tenderH7390 among you, and veryH3966 delicateH6028, his eyeH5869 shall be evilH3415 toward his brotherH251, and toward the wifeH802 of his bosomH2436, and toward the remnantH3499 of his childrenH1121 which he shall leaveH3498:
So that he will not giveH5414 to anyH259 of them of the fleshH1320 of his childrenH1121 whom he shall eatH398: because he hath nothing leftH7604 him in the siegeH4692, and in the straitnessH4689, wherewith thine enemiesH341 shall distressH6693 thee in all thy gatesH8179.
Then the LORDH3068 rainedH4305 upon SodomH5467 and upon GomorrahH6017 brimstoneH1614 and fireH784 from the LORDH3068 out of heavenH8064;
And he overthrewH2015 thoseH411 citiesH5892, and all the plainH3603, and all the inhabitantsH3427 of the citiesH5892, and that which grewH6780 upon the groundH127.
I have seenH7200 also in the prophetsH5030 of JerusalemH3389 an horrible thingH8186: they commit adulteryH5003, and walkH1980 in liesH8267: they strengthenH2388 also the handsH3027 of evildoersH7489, that noneH376 doth returnH7725 from his wickednessH7451: they are all of them unto me as SodomH5467, and the inhabitantsH3427 thereof as GomorrahH6017. {an…: or, filthiness}
My belovedH1730 is whiteH6703 and ruddyH122, the chiefestH1713 among ten thousandH7233. {the chiefest: Heb. a standard bearer}
His legsH7785 are as pillarsH5982 of marbleH8336, setH3245 upon socketsH134 of fine goldH6337: his countenanceH4758 is as LebanonH3844, excellentH977 as the cedarsH730.
And when they lifted upH5375 their eyesH5869 afar offH7350, and knewH5234 him not, they lifted upH5375 their voiceH6963, and weptH1058; and they rentH7167 every oneH376 his mantleH4598, and sprinkledH2236 dustH6083 upon their headsH7218 toward heavenH8064.
My skinH5785 is blackH7835 upon me, and my bonesH6106 are burnedH2787 with heatH2721.
And it shall come to pass at that dayH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that the heartH3820 of the kingH4428 shall perishH6, and the heartH3820 of the princesH8269; and the priestsH3548 shall be astonishedH8074, and the prophetsH5030 shall wonderH8539.
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:
The tenderH7390 and delicateH6028 woman among you, which would not adventureH5254 to setH3322 the soleH3709 of her footH7272 upon the groundH776 for delicatenessH6026 and tendernessH7391, her eyeH5869 shall be evilH3415 toward the husbandH376 of her bosomH2436, and toward her sonH1121, and toward her daughterH1323,
And toward her young oneH7988 that cometh outH3318 from between her feetH7272, and toward her childrenH1121 which she shall bearH3205: for she shall eatH398 them for wantH2640 of all things secretlyH5643 in the siegeH4692 and straitnessH4689, wherewith thine enemyH341 shall distressH6693 thee in thy gatesH8179. {young one: Heb. afterbirth}
And there was a greatH1419 famineH7458 in SamariaH8111: and, behold, they besiegedH6696 it, until an ass'sH2543 headH7218 was sold for fourscoreH8084 pieces of silverH3701, and the fourth partH7255 of a cabH6894 of dove's dungH1686+H3123+H2755 for fiveH2568 pieces of silverH3701.
And as the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 was passing byH5674 upon the wallH2346, there criedH6817 a womanH802 unto him, sayingH559, HelpH3467, my lordH113, O kingH4428.
And he saidH559, If the LORDH3068 do not helpH3467 thee, whenceH370 shall I helpH3467 thee? out of the barnfloorH1637, or out of the winepressH3342? {If…: or, Let not the LORD save thee}
And the kingH4428 saidH559 unto her, What aileth thee? And she answeredH559, This womanH802 saidH559 unto me, GiveH5414 thy sonH1121, that we may eatH398 him to dayH3117, and we will eatH398 my sonH1121 to morrowH4279.
So we boiledH1310 my sonH1121, and did eatH398 him: and I saidH559 unto her on the nextH312 dayH3117, GiveH5414 thy sonH1121, that we may eatH398 him: and she hath hidH2244 her sonH1121. {next: Heb. other}
And it came to pass, when the kingH4428 heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of the womanH802, that he rentH7167 his clothesH899; and he passed byH5674 upon the wallH2346, and the peopleH5971 lookedH7200, and, behold, he had sackclothH8242 withinH1004 upon his fleshH1320.
Can a womanH802 forgetH7911 her sucking childH5764, that she should not have compassionH7355 on the sonH1121 of her wombH990? yea, they may forgetH7911, yet will I not forgetH7911 thee. {that…: Heb. from having compassion}
They have moved me to jealousyH7065 with that which is notH3808 GodH410; they have provoked me to angerH3707 with their vanitiesH1892: and I will move them to jealousyH7065 with those which are not a peopleH5971; I will provoke them to angerH3707 with a foolishH5036 nationH1471.
For a fireH784 is kindledH6919 in mine angerH639, and shall burnH3344 unto the lowestH8482 hellH7585, and shall consumeH398 the earthH776 with her increaseH2981, and set on fireH3857 the foundationsH4144 of the mountainsH2022. {shall burn: or, hath burned} {shall consume: or, hath consumed}
Therefore have I poured outH8210 mine indignationH2195 upon them; I have consumedH3615 them with the fireH784 of my wrathH5678: their own wayH1870 have I recompensedH5414 upon their headsH7218, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
For a fireH784 is kindledH6919 in mine angerH639, and shall burnH3344 unto the lowestH8482 hellH7585, and shall consumeH398 the earthH776 with her increaseH2981, and set on fireH3857 the foundationsH4144 of the mountainsH2022. {shall burn: or, hath burned} {shall consume: or, hath consumed}
