: 20 Hear <8085 shama< > ye therefore the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  all <3605 kol > ye of the captivity <1473 gowlah > ,  whom <0834 >aher > I have sent <7971 shalach > from Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > to Babylon <0894 Babel > :

 : 21 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  of Ahab <0256 >Ach>ab > the son <1121 ben > of Kolaiah <6964 Qowlayah > ,  and of Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > the son <1121 ben > of Maaseiah <4641 Ma<aseyah > ,  which prophesy <5012 naba> > a lie <8267 sheqer > unto you in my name <8034 shem > ;  Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  I will deliver <5414 nathan > them into the hand <3027 yad > of Nebuchadrezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > ;  and he shall slay <5221 nakah > them before your eyes <5869 <ayin > ;

 : 22 And of them shall be taken <3947 laqach > up a curse <7045 q@lalah > by all <3605 kol > the captivity <1546 galuwth > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > which <0834 >aher >  [ are ]  in Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > make <7760 suwm > thee like Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > and like Ahab <0256 >Ach>ab > ,  whom <0834 >aher > the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > roasted <7033 qalah > in the fire <0784 >esh > ;

 : 23 Because they have committed <6213 <asah > villany <5039 n@balah > in Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  and have committed <6213 <asah > adultery <5003 na>aph > with their neighbours <7453 rea< >  wives <0802 >ishshah > ,  and have spoken <1696 dabar > lying <8267 sheqer > words <1697 dabar > in my name <8034 shem > ,  which <0834 >aher > I have not commanded <6680 tsavah > them ;  even I know <3045 yada< > ,  and  [ am ]  a witness <5707 <ed > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 24 .   [ Thus ]  shalt thou also speak <0559 >amar > to Shemaiah <8098 Sh@ma<yah > the Nehelamite <5161 Nechelamiy > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 25 Thus <3541 koh > speaketh <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Because thou hast sent <7971 shalach > letters <5612 cepher > in thy name <8034 shem > unto all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > that  [ are ]  at Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  and to Zephaniah <6846 Ts@phanyah > the son <1121 ben > of Maaseiah <4641 Ma<aseyah > the priest <3548 kohen > ,  and to all <3605 kol > the priests <3548 kohen > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 26 The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath made <5414 nathan > thee priest <3548 kohen > in the stead <8478 tachath > of Jehoiada <3111 Yowyada< > the priest <3548 kohen > ,  that ye should be officers <6496 paqiyd > in the house <1004 bayith > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  for every man <0376 >iysh >  [ that is ]  mad <7696 shaga< > ,  and maketh himself a prophet <5012 naba> > ,  that thou shouldest put <5414 nathan > him in prison <4115 mahpeketh > ,  and in the stocks <6729 tsiynoq > .

 : 27 Now <6258 <attah > therefore why <4100 mah > hast thou not reproved <1605 ga<ar > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > of Anathoth <6068 <Anathowth > ,  which maketh himself a prophet <5012 naba> > to you ?

 : 28 For therefore he sent <7971 shalach > unto us  [ in ]  Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  This <1931 huw> >  [ captivity is ]  long <0752 >arok > : build <1129 banah > ye houses <1004 bayith > ,  and dwell <3427 yashab >  [ in them ]  ;  and plant <5193 nata< > gardens <1593 gannah > ,  and eat <0398 >akal > the fruit <6529 p@riy > of them .

 : 29 And Zephaniah <6846 Ts@phanyah > the priest <3548 kohen > read <7121 qara> > this letter <5612 cepher > in the ears <0241 >ozen > of Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > .

 : 30 Then came <1961 hayah > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 31 Send <7971 shalach > to all <3605 kol > them of the captivity <1473 gowlah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > concerning <0413 >el > Shemaiah <8098 Sh@ma<yah > the Nehelamite <5161 Nechelamiy > ;  Because that Shemaiah <8098 Sh@ma<yah > hath prophesied <5012 naba> > unto you ,  and I sent <7971 shalach > him not ,  and he caused you to trust <0982 batach > in a lie <8267 sheqer > :

 : 32 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will punish <6485 paqad > Shemaiah <8098 Sh@ma<yah > the Nehelamite <5161 Nechelamiy > ,  and his seed <2233 zera< > : he shall not have <1961 hayah > a man <0376 >iysh > to dwell <3427 yashab > among <8432 tavek > this <2088 zeh > people <5971 <am > ;  neither <3808 lo> > shall he behold <7200 ra>ah > the good <2896 towb > that I will do <6213 <asah > for my people <5971 <am > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  because <3588 kiy > he hath taught <1696 dabar > rebellion <5627 carah > against <5921 <al > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : Jeremiah 30

 : 01 .  The word <1697 dabar > that came <1961 hayah > to Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 02 Thus <3541 koh > speaketh <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Write <3789 kathab > thee all <3605 kol > the words <1697 dabar > that I have spoken <1696 dabar > unto thee in a book <5612 cepher > .

 : 03 For ,  lo <2009 hinneh > ,  the days <3117 yowm > come <0935 bow> > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  that I will bring <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > the captivity <7622 sh@buwth > of my people <5971 <am > Israel <3478 Yisra>el > and Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > : and I will cause them to return <7725 shuwb > to the land <0776 >erets > that I gave <5414 nathan > to their fathers <1> ,  and they shall possess <3423 yarash > it .

 : 04 And these <0428 >el - leh >  [ are ]  the words <1697 dabar > that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > spake <1696 dabar > concerning <0413 >el > Israel <3478 Yisra>el > and concerning <0413 >el > Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > .

 : 05 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  We have heard <8085 shama< > a voice <6963 qowl > of trembling <2731 charadah > ,  of fear <6343 pachad > ,  and not of peace <7965 shalowm > .

 : 06 Ask <7592 sha>al > ye now <4994 na> > ,  and see <7200 ra>ah > whether <0518 >im > a man <2145 zakar > doth travail <3205 yalad > with child <3205 yalad > ?  wherefore <4069 madduwa< > do I see <7200 ra>ah > every <3605 kol > man <1397 geber > with his hands <3027 yad > on <5921 <al > his loins <2504 chalats > ,  as a woman in travail <3205 yalad > ,  and all <3605 kol > faces <6440 paniym > are turned <2015 haphak > into paleness <3420 yeraqown > ?

 : 07 Alas <1945 howy > !  for that day <3117 yowm >  [ is ]  great <1419 gadowl > ,  so that none <0369 >ayin >  [ is ]  like <3644 k@mow > it : it  [ is ]  even the time <6256 <eth > of Jacob s <3290 Ya<aqob > trouble <6869 tsarah > ;  but he shall be saved <3467 yasha< > out of it .

 : 08 For it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass in that day <3117 yowm > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,   [ that ]  I will break <7665 shabar > his yoke <5923 <ol > from off <5921 <al > thy neck <6677 tsavva>r > ,  and will burst <5423 nathaq > thy bonds <4147 mowcer > ,  and strangers <2114 zuwr > shall no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > serve <5647 <abad > themselves of him :

 : 09 But they shall serve <5647 <abad > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > their God <0430 >elohiym > ,  and David <1732 David > their king <4428 melek > ,  whom <0834 >aher > I will raise <6965 quwm > up unto them .

 : 10 .  Therefore fear <3372 yare> > thou not ,  O my servant <5650 <ebed > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  neither <0408 >al > be dismayed <2865 chathath > ,  O Israel <3478 Yisra>el > : for ,  lo <2009 hinneh > ,  I will save <3467 yasha< > thee from afar <7350 rachowq > ,  and thy seed <2233 zera< > from the land <0776 >erets > of their captivity <7628 sh@biy > ;  and Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > shall return <7725 shuwb > ,  and shall be in rest <8252 shaqat > ,  and be quiet <7599 sha>an > ,  and none <0369 >ayin > shall make  [ him ]  afraid <2729 charad > .

 : 11 For I  [ am ]  with thee ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  to save <3467 yasha< > thee : though <3588 kiy > I make <6213 <asah > a full end <3615 kalah > of all <3605 kol > nations <1471 gowy > whither I have scattered <6327 puwts > thee ,  yet <0389 >ak > will I not make <6213 <asah > a full end <3615 kalah > of thee : but I will correct <3256 yacar > thee in measure <4941 mishpat > ,  and will not leave thee altogether unpunished <5352 naqah > .

 : 12 For thus <3541 koh > saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  Thy bruise <7667 sheber >  [ is ]  incurable <0605 >anash > ,   [ and ]  thy wound <4347 makkah >  [ is ]  grievous <2470 chalah > .

 : 13  [ There is ]  none <0369 >ayin > to plead <1777 diyn > thy cause <1779 diyn > ,  that thou mayest be bound <4205 mazowr > up : thou hast no <0369 >ayin > healing <8585 t@<alah > medicines <7499 r@phu>ah > .

 : 14 All <3605 kol > thy lovers <0157 >ahab > have forgotten <7911 shakach > thee ;  they seek <1875 darash > thee not ;  for I have wounded <5221 nakah > thee with the wound <4347 makkah > of an enemy <0341 >oyeb > ,  with the chastisement <4148 muwcar > of a cruel <0394 >akzariy > one ,  for the multitude <7230 rob > of thine iniquity <5771 <avon > ;   [ because ]  thy sins <2403 chatta>ah > were increased <6105 <atsam > .

 : 15 Why <4100 mah > criest <2199 za<aq > thou for thine affliction <7667 sheber > ?  thy sorrow <4341 mak>ob >  [ is ]  incurable <0605 >anash > for the multitude <7230 rob > of thine iniquity <5771 <avon > :  [ because ]  thy sins <2403 chatta>ah > were increased <6105 <atsam > ,  I have done <6213 <asah > these <0428 >el - leh > things unto thee .

 : 16 Therefore <3651 ken > all <3605 kol > they that devour <0398 >akal > thee shall be devoured <0398 >akal > ;  and all <3605 kol > thine adversaries <6862 tsar > ,  every <3605 kol > one of them ,  shall go <3212 yalak > into captivity <7633 shibyah > ;  and they that spoil <7701 shod > thee shall be a spoil <4933 m@chiccah > ,  and all <3605 kol > that prey <0962 bazaz > upon thee will I give <5414 nathan > for a prey <7998 shalal > .

 : 17 For I will restore <5927 <alah > health <0724 >aruwkah > unto thee ,  and I will heal <7495 rapha> > thee of thy wounds <4347 makkah > ,  saith the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  because <3588 kiy > they called <7121 qara> > thee an Outcast <5080 nadach > ,   [ saying ]  ,  This <1931 huw> >  [ is ]  Zion <6726 Tsiyown > ,  whom no <0369 >ayin > man seeketh <1875 darash > after <0310 >achar > .

 : 18 .  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will bring <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > the captivity <7622 sh@buwth > of Jacob s <3290 Ya<aqob > tents <0168 >ohel > ,  and have mercy <7355 racham > on his dwellingplaces <4908 mishkan > ;  and the city <5892 <iyr > shall be builded <1129 banah > upon her own heap <8510 tel > ,  and the palace <0759 >armown > shall remain <3427 yashab > after <5921 <al > the manner <4941 mishpat > thereof .

 : 19 And out of them shall proceed <3318 yatsa> > thanksgiving <8426 towdah > and the voice <6963 qowl > of them that make merry <7832 sachaq > : and I will multiply <7235 rabah > them ,  and they shall not be few <4591 ma<at > ;  I will also glorify <3513 kabad > them ,  and they shall not be small <6819 tsa<ar > .

 : 20 Their children <1121 ben > also shall be as aforetime <6924 qedem > ,  andtheir congregation <5712 <edah > shall be established <3559 kuwn > before <6440 paniym > me ,  and I will punish <6485 paqad > all <3605 kol > that oppress <3905 lachats > them .

 : 21 And their nobles <0117 >addiyr > shall be of themselves ,  and their governor <4910 mashal > shall proceed <3318 yatsa> > from the midst <7130 qereb > of them ;  and I will cause him to draw near <7126 qarab > ,  and he shall approach <5066 nagash > unto me : for who <4310 miy >  [ is ]  this that engaged <6148 <arab > his heart <3820 leb > to approach <5066 nagash > unto me ?  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 22 And ye shall be my people <5971 <am > ,  and I will be your God <0430 >elohiym > .

 : 23 Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  the whirlwind <5591 ca<ar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > goeth <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > with fury <2534 chemah > ,  a continuing <1641 garar > whirlwind <5591 ca<ar > : it shall fall <2342 chuwl > with pain <2342 chuwl > upon the head <7218 ro>sh > of the wicked <7563 rasha< > .

 : 24 The fierce <2740 charown > anger <0639 >aph > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall not return <7725 shuwb > ,  until <5704 <ad > he have done <6213 <asah >  [ it ]  ,  and until <5704 <ad > he have performed <6965 quwm > the intents <4209 m@zimmah > of his heart <3820 leb > : in the latter <0319 >achariyth > days <3117 yowm > ye shall consider <0995 biyn > it .

 : Jeremiah 31

 : 01 .  At the same <1931 huw> > time <6256 <eth > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  will I be the God <0430 >elohiym > of all <3605 kol > the families <4940 mishpachah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  and they shall be my people <5971 <am > .

 : 02 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  The people <5971 <am >  [ which were ]  left <8300 sariyd > of the sword <2719 chereb > found <4672 matsa> > grace <2580 chen > in the wilderness <4057 midbar > ;   [ even ]  Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  when I went <1980 halak > to cause him to rest <7280 raga< > .

 : 03 The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath appeared <7200 ra>ah > of old <7350 rachowq > unto me ,   [ saying ]  ,  Yea ,  I have loved <0157 >ahab > thee with an everlasting <5769 <owlam > love <0160 >ahabah > : therefore with lovingkindness <2617 checed > have I drawn <4900 mashak > thee .

 : 04 Again <5750 <owd > I will build <1129 banah > thee ,  and thou shalt be built <1129 banah > ,  O virgin <1330 b@thuwlah > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > : thou shalt again <5750 <owd > be adorned <5710 <adah > with thy tabrets <8596 toph > ,  and shalt go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > in the dances of them that make merry <7832 sachaq > .

 : 05 Thou shalt yet <5750 <owd > plant <5193 nata< > vines <3754 kerem > upon the mountains <2022 har > of Samaria <8111 Shom@rown > : the planters <5193 nata< > shall plant <5193 nata< > ,  and shall eat  [ them ]  as common <2490 chalal > things .

 : 06 For there shall be a day <3117 yowm > ,   [ that ]  the watchmen <5341 natsar > upon the mount <2022 har > Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim > shall cry <7121 qara> > ,  Arise <6965 quwm > ye ,  and let us go <5927 <alah > up to Zion <6726 Tsiyown > unto the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God <0430 >elohiym > .

 : 07 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  Sing <7442 ranan > with gladness <8057 simchah > for Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > ,  and shout <6670 tsahal > among the chief <7218 ro>sh > of the nations <1471 gowy > : publish <8085 shama< > ye ,  praise <1984 halal > ye ,  and say <0559 >amar > ,  O LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  save <3467 yasha< > thy people <5971 <am > ,  the remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > .

 : 08 Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will bring <0935 bow> > them from the north <6828 tsaphown > country <0776 >erets > ,  and gather <6908 qabats > them from the coasts <3411 y@rekah > of the earth <0776 >erets > ,   [ and ]  with them the blind <5787 <ivver > and the lame <6455 picceach > ,  the woman with child <2030 hareh > and her that travaileth <3205 yalad > with child <3205 yalad > together <3162 yachad > : a great <1419 gadowl > company <6951 qahal > shall return <7725 shuwb > thither <2008 hennah > .

 : 09 They shall come <0935 bow> > with weeping <1065 B@kiy > ,  and with supplications <8469 tachanuwn > will I lead <2986 yabal > them : I will cause them to walk <1980 halak > by the rivers <5158 nachal > of waters <4325 mayim > in a straight <3474 yashar > way <1870 derek > ,  wherein they shall not stumble <3782 kashal > : for I am a father <1> to Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  and Ephraim <0669 >Ephrayim >  [ is ]  my firstborn <1060 b@kowr > .

 : 10 .  Hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  O ye nations <1471 gowy > ,  and declare <5046 nagad >  [ it ]  in the isles <0339 >iy > afar <4801 merchaq > off ,  and say <0559 >amar > ,  He that scattered <2219 zarah > Israel <3478 Yisra>el > will gather <6908 qabats > him ,  and keep <8104 shamar > him ,  as a shepherd <7462 ra<ah >  [ doth ]  his flock <5739 <eder > .

 : 11 For the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath redeemed <6299 padah > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > ,  and ransomed <1350 ga>al > him from the hand <3027 yad > of  [ him that was ]  stronger <2388 chazaq > than he .

 : 12 Therefore they shall come <0935 bow> > and sing <7442 ranan > in the height <4791 marowm > of Zion <6726 Tsiyown > ,  and shall flow <5102 nahar > together to the goodness <2898 tuwb > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  for wheat <1715 dagan > ,  and for wine <8492 tiyrowsh > ,  and for oil <3323 yitshar > ,  and for the young <1121 ben > of the flock <6629 tso>n > and of the herd <1241 baqar > : and their soul <5315 nephesh > shall be as a watered <7302 raveh > garden <1588 gan > ;  and they shall not sorrow <1669 da>ab > any more <3254 yacaph > at all .

 : 13 Then shall the virgin <1330 b@thuwlah > rejoice <8057 simchah > in the dance <4234 machowl > ,  both young <0970 bachuwr > men and old <2205 zaqen > together <3162 yachad > : for I will turn <2015 haphak > their mourning <60> into joy <8342 sasown > ,  and will comfort <5162 nacham > them ,  and make them rejoice <8057 simchah > from their sorrow <3015 yagown > .

 : 14 And I will satiate <7301 ravah > the soul <5315 nephesh > of the priests <3548 kohen > with fatness <1880 deshen > ,  and my people <5971 <am > shall be satisfied <7646 saba< > with my goodness <2898 tuwb > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 15 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  A voice <6963 qowl > was heard <8085 shama< > in Ramah <7414 Ramah > ,  lamentation <5092 n@hiy > ,   [ and ]  bitter <8563 tamruwr > weeping <1065 B@kiy > ;  Rahel <7354 Rachel > weeping <1058 bakah > for her children <1121 ben > refused <3985 ma>en > to be comforted <5162 nacham > for her children <1121 ben > ,  because <3588 kiy > they  [ were ]  not .

 : 23 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  As yet <5750 <owd > they shall use <0559 >amar > this <2088 zeh > speech <1697 dabar > in the land <0776 >erets > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > and in the cities <5892 <iyr > thereof ,  when I shall bring <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > their captivity <7622 sh@buwth > ;  The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > bless <1288 barak > thee ,  O habitation <5116 naveh > of justice <6664 tsedeq > ,   [ and ]  mountain <2022 har > of holiness <6944 qodesh > .

 : 28 And it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass ,   [ that ]  like as I have watched <8245 shaqad > over <5921 <al > them ,  to pluck <5428 nathash > up ,  and to break <5422 nathats > down <5422 nathats > ,  and to throw <2040 harac > down <2040 harac > ,  and to destroy <6> ,  and to afflict <7489 ra<a< > ;  so <3651 ken > will I watch <8245 shaqad > over <5921 <al > them ,  to build <1129 banah > ,  and to plant <5193 nata< > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 02 For then <0227 >az > the king <4428 melek > of Babylon s <0894 Babel > army <2428 chayil > besieged <6696 tsuwr > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > : and Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > was shut <3607 kala> > up in the court <2691 chatser > of the prison <4307 mattara> > ,  which <0834 >aher >  [ was ]  in the king <4428 melek > of Judah s <3063 Y@huwdah > house <1004 bayith > .

 : 03 For Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > had shut <3607 kala> > him up ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Wherefore <4069 madduwa< > dost thou prophesy <5012 naba> > ,  and say <0559 >amar > ,  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will give <5414 nathan > this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > into the hand <3027 yad > of the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and he shall take <3920 lakad > it ;

 : 06 And Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > said <0559 >amar > ,  The word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > unto me ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 08 So Hanameel <2601 Chanam>el > mine uncle s <1733 dowdah > son <1121 ben > came <0935 bow> > to me in the court <2691 chatser > of the prison <4307 mattara> > according to the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  and said <0559 >amar > unto me ,  Buy <7069 qanah > my field <7704 sadeh > ,  I pray <4994 na> > thee ,  that  [ is ]  in Anathoth <6068 <Anathowth > ,  which <0834 >aher >  [ is ]  in the country <0776 >erets > of Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn > : for the right <4941 mishpat > of inheritance <3425 y@rushah >  [ is ]  thine ,  and the redemption <1353 g@ullah >  [ is ]  thine ;  buy <7069 qanah >  [ it ]  for thyself .  Then I knew <3045 yada< > that this <1931 huw> >  [ was ]  the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 09 And I bought <7069 qanah > the field <7704 sadeh > of Hanameel <2601 Chanam>el > my uncle s <1733 dowdah > son <1121 ben > ,  that  [ was ]  in Anathoth <6068 <Anathowth > ,  and weighed <8254 shaqal > him the money <3701 keceph > ,   [ even ]  seventeen <7651 sheba< > shekels <8255 sheqel > of silver <3701 keceph > .

 : 11 So I took <3947 laqach > the evidence <5612 cepher > of the purchase <4736 miqnah > ,   [ both ]  that which was sealed <2856 chatham >  [ according ]  to the law <4687 mitsvah > and custom <2706 choq > ,  and that which was open <1540 galah > :

 : 12 And I gave <5414 nathan > the evidence <5612 cepher > of the purchase <4736 miqnah > unto Baruch <1263 Baruwk > the son <1121 ben > of Neriah <5374 Neriyah > ,  the son <1121 ben > of Maaseiah <4271 Machceyah > ,  in the sight <5869 <ayin > of Hanameel <2601 Chanam>el > mine uncle s <1733 dowdah >  [ son ]  ,  and in the presence <5869 <ayin > of the witnesses <5707 <ed > that subscribed <3789 kathab > the book <5612 cepher > of the purchase <4736 miqnah > ,  before <5869 <ayin > all <3605 kol > the Jews <3064 Y@huwdiy > that sat <3427 yashab > in the court <2691 chatser > of the prison <4307 mattara> > .

 : 13 And I charged <6680 tsavah > Baruch <1263 Baruwk > before <5869 <ayin > them ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 23 And they came <0935 bow> > in ,  and possessed <3423 yarash > it ;  but they obeyed <8085 shama< > not thy voice <6963 qowl > ,  neither <3808 lo> > walked <1980 halak > in thy law <8451 towrah > ;  they have done <6213 <asah > nothing <3808 lo> > of all <3605 kol > that thou commandedst <6680 tsavah > them to do <6213 <asah > : therefore thou hast caused all <3605 kol > this <2063 zo>th > evil <7451 ra< > to come <7122 qara> > upon them :

 : 24 Behold <2009 hinneh > the mounts <5550 col@lah > ,  they are come <0935 bow> > unto the city <5892 <iyr > to take <3920 lakad > it ;  and the city <5892 <iyr > is given <5414 nathan > into the hand <3027 yad > of the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > ,  that fight <3898 lacham > against <5921 <al > it ,  because <6440 paniym > of the sword <2719 chereb > ,  and of the famine <7458 ra<ab > ,  and of the pestilence <1698 deber > : and what <0834 >aher > thou hast spoken <1696 dabar > is come <1961 hayah > to pass ;  and ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  thou seest <7200 ra>ah >  [ it ]  .

 : 25 And thou hast said <0559 >amar > unto me ,  O Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > ,  Buy <7069 qanah > thee the field <7704 sadeh > for money <3701 keceph > ,  and take <5749 <uwd > witnesses <5707 <ed > ;  for the city <5892 <iyr > is given <5414 nathan > into the hand <3027 yad > of the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > .

 : 26 .  Then came <1961 hayah > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 27 Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  I  [ am ]  the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of all <3605 kol > flesh <1320 basar > : is there any <3605 kol > thing <1697 dabar > too hard <6381 pala> > for me ?

 : 28 Therefore thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will give <5414 nathan > this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > into the hand <3027 yad > of the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > ,  and into the hand <3027 yad > of Nebuchadrezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and he shall take <3920 lakad > it :

 : 29 And the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > ,  that fight <3898 lacham > against <5921 <al > this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > ,  shall come <0935 bow> > and set fire <0784 >esh > on this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > ,  and burn <8313 saraph > it with the houses <1004 bayith > ,  upon whose <0834 >aher > roofs <1406 gag > they have offered <6999 qatar > incense <6999 qatar > unto Baal <1168 Ba<al > ,  and poured <5258 nacak > out drink <5262 necek > offerings unto other <0312 >acher > gods <0430 >elohiym > ,  to provoke me to anger <3707 ka<ac > .

 : 30 For the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > and the children <1121 ben > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > have only <0389 >ak > done <6213 <asah > evil <7451 ra< > before <5869 <ayin > me from their youth <5271 na<uwr > : for the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > have only <0389 >ak > provoked me to anger <3707 ka<ac > with the work <4639 ma<aseh > of their hands <3027 yad > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 31 For this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > hath been <1961 hayah > to me  [ as ]  a provocation <3708 ka<ac > of mine anger <0639 >aph > and of my fury <2534 chemah > from the day <3119 yowmam > that they built <1129 banah > it even unto this <2088 zeh > day <3119 yowmam > ;  that I should remove <5493 cuwr > it from before <5921 <al > my face <6440 paniym > ,

 : 32 Because <5921 <al > of all <3605 kol > the evil <7451 ra< > of the children <1121 ben > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > and of the children <1121 ben > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  which <0834 >aher > they have done <6213 <asah > to provoke me to anger <3707 ka<ac > ,  they ,  their kings <4428 melek > ,  their princes <8269 sar > ,  their priests <3548 kohen > ,  and their prophets <5030 nabiy> > ,  and the men <0376 >iysh > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  and the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > .

 : 33 And they have turned <6437 panah > unto me the back <6203 <oreph > ,  and not the face <6440 paniym > : though I taught <3925 lamad > them ,  rising <7925 shakam > up early <7925 shakam > and teaching <3925 lamad >  [ them ]  ,  yet they have not hearkened <8085 shama< > to receive <3947 laqach > instruction <4148 muwcar > .

 : 34 But they set <7760 suwm > their abominations <8251 shiqquwts > in the house <1004 bayith > ,  which <0834 >aher > is called <7121 qara> > by my name <8034 shem > ,  to defile <2930 tame> > it .

 : 35 And they built <1129 banah > the high <1116 bamah > places of Baal <1168 Ba<al > ,  which <0834 >aher >  [ are ]  in the valley <1516 gay> > of the son <1121 ben > of Hinnom <2011 Hinnom > ,  to cause <4616 ma<an > their sons <1121 ben > and their daughters <1121 ben > to pass <5674 <abar > through  [ the fire <0784 >esh > ]  unto Molech <4432 Molek > ;  which <0834 >aher > I commanded <6680 tsavah > them not ,  neither <3808 lo> > came <5927 <alah > it into <5921 <al > my mind <3820 leb > ,  that they should do <6213 <asah > this <2063 zo>th > abomination <8441 tow<ebah > ,  to cause Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > to sin <2398 chata> > .

 : 36 And now <6258 <attah > therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  concerning <0413 >el > this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > ,  whereof <0834 >aher > ye say <0559 >amar > ,  It shall be delivered <5414 nathan > into the hand <3027 yad > of the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > by the sword <2719 chereb > ,  and by the famine <7458 ra<ab > ,  and by the pestilence <1698 deber > ;

 : 37 Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will gather <6908 qabats > them out of all <3605 kol > countries <0776 >erets > ,  whither I have driven <5080 nadach > them in mine anger <0639 >aph > ,  and in my fury <2534 chemah > ,  and in great <1419 gadowl > wrath <7110 qetseph > ;  and I will bring <7725 shuwb > them again <7725 shuwb > unto this place <4725 maqowm > ,  and I will cause them to dwell <3427 yashab > safely <0983 betach > :

 : 38 And they shall be my people <5971 <am > ,  and I will be their God <0430 >elohiym > :

 : 39 And I will give <5414 nathan > them one <0259 >echad > heart <3820 leb > ,  and one <0259 >echad > way <1870 derek > ,  that they may fear <3372 yare> > me for ever ,  for the good <2896 towb > of them ,  and of their children <1121 ben > after <0310 >achar > them :

 : 40 And I will make <3772 karath > an everlasting <5769 <owlam > covenant <1285 b@riyth > with them ,  that I will not turn <7725 shuwb > away from them ,  to do them good <3190 yatab > ;  but I will put <5414 nathan > my fear <3374 yir>ah > in their hearts <3824 lebab > ,  that they shall not depart <5493 cuwr > from me .

 : 41 Yea ,  I will rejoice <7797 suws > over <5921 <al > them to do them good <2895 towb > ,  and I will plant <5193 nata< > them in this <2063 zo>th > land <0776 >erets > assuredly <0571 >emeth > with my whole <3605 kol > heart <3820 leb > and with my whole <3605 kol > soul <5315 nephesh > .

 : 42 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  Like as I have brought <0935 bow> > all <3605 kol > this <2063 zo>th > great <1419 gadowl > evil <7451 ra< > upon this <2088 zeh > people <5971 <am > ,  so <3651 ken > will I bring <0935 bow> > upon them all <3605 kol > the good <2896 towb > that I have promised <1696 dabar > them .

 : 43 And fields <7704 sadeh > shall be bought <7069 qanah > in this <2063 zo>th > land <0776 >erets > ,  whereof <0834 >aher > ye say <0559 >amar > ,   [ It is ]  desolate <8077 sh@mamah > without <0369 >ayin > man <0120 >adam > or beast <0929 b@hemah > ;  it is given <5414 nathan > into the hand <3027 yad > of the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > .

 : 44 Men shall buy <7069 qanah > fields <7704 sadeh > for money <3701 keceph > ,  and subscribe <3789 kathab > evidences <5612 cepher > ,  and seal <2856 chatham >  [ them ]  ,  and take <5749 <uwd > witnesses <5707 <ed > in the land <0776 >erets > of Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn > ,  and in the places about <5439 cabiyb > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  and in the cities <5892 <iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  and in the cities <5892 <iyr > of the mountains <2022 har > ,  and in the cities <5892 <iyr > of the valley <8219 sh@phelah > ,  and in the cities <5892 <iyr > of the south <5045 negeb > : for I will <7522 ratsown > cause their captivity <7622 sh@buwth > to return <7725 shuwb > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : Jeremiah 33

 : 01 .  Moreover the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the second <8145 sheniy > time ,  while he was yet <5750 <owd > shut <6113 <atsar > up in the court <2691 chatser > of the prison <4307 mattara> > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 02 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > the maker <6213 <asah > thereof ,  the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > that formed <3335 yatsar > it ,  to establish <3559 kuwn > it ;  the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >  [ is ]  his name <8034 shem > ;

 : 04 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  concerning <5921 <al > the houses <1004 bayith > of this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > ,  and concerning <5921 <al > the houses <1004 bayith > of the kings <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  which are thrown <5422 nathats > down <5422 nathats > by the mounts <5550 col@lah > ,  and by the sword <2719 chereb > ;

 : 05 They come <0935 bow> > to fight <3898 lacham > with the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > ,  but  [ it is ]  to fill <4390 male> > them with the dead <6297 peger > bodies <6297 peger > of men <0120 >adam > ,  whom <0834 >aher > I have slain <5221 nakah > in mine anger <0639 >aph > and in my fury <2534 chemah > ,  and for all <3605 kol > whose <0834 >aher > wickedness <7451 ra< > I have hid <5641 cathar > my face <6440 paniym > from this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > .

 : 06 Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will bring <4608 ma<aleh > it health <0724 >aruwkah > and cure <7495 rapha> > ,  and I will cure <7495 rapha> > them ,  and will reveal <1540 galah > unto them the abundance <6283 <athereth > of peace <7965 shalowm > and truth <0571 >emeth > .

 : 07 And I will cause the captivity <7622 sh@buwth > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > and the captivity <7622 sh@buwth > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > to return <7725 shuwb > ,  and will build <1129 banah > them ,  as at the first <7223 ri>shown > .

 : 08 And I will cleanse <2891 taher > them from all <3605 kol > their iniquity<5771 <avon > ,  whereby <0834 >aher > they have sinned <2398 chata> > against me ;  and I will pardon <5545 calach > all <3605 kol > their iniquities <5771 <avon > ,  whereby <0834 >aher > they have sinned <2398 chata> > ,  and whereby <0834 >aher > they have transgressed <6586 pasha< > against me .

 : 09 And it shall be to me a name <8034 shem > of joy <8342 sasown > ,  a praise <8416 t@hillah > and an honour <8597 tiph>arah > before all <3605 kol > the nations <1471 gowy > of the earth <0776 >erets > ,  which <0834 >aher > shall hear <8085 shama< > all <3605 kol > the good <2896 towb > that I do <6213 <asah > unto them : and they shall fear <6342 pachad > and tremble <7264 ragaz > for all <3605 kol > the goodness <2896 towb > and for all <3605 kol > the prosperity <7965 shalowm > that I procure <6213 <asah > unto it .

 : 10 .  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  Again <5750 <owd > there shall be heard <8085 shama< > in this <2088 zeh > place <4725 maqowm > ,  which <0834 >aher > ye say <0559 >amar >  [ shall be ]  desolate <2717 charab > without <0369 >ayin > man <0120 >adam > and without <0369 >ayin > beast <0929 b@hemah > ,   [ even ]  in the cities <5892 <iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  and in the streets <2351 chuwts > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  that are desolate <8074 shamem > ,  without <0369 >ayin > man <0120 >adam > ,  and without <0369 >ayin > inhabitant <3427 yashab > ,  and without <0369 >ayin > beast <0929 b@hemah > ,

 : 12 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ;  Again <5750 <owd > in this <2088 zeh > place <4725 maqowm > ,  which is desolate <2717 charab > without man <0120 >adam > and without beast <0929 b@hemah > ,  and in all <3605 kol > the cities <5892 <iyr > thereof ,  shall be an habitation <5116 naveh > of shepherds <7462 ra<ah > causing  [ their ]  flocks <6629 tso>n > to lie <7257 rabats > down <7901 shakab > .

 : 13 In the cities <5892 <iyr > of the mountains <2022 har > ,  in the cities <5892 <iyr > of the vale <8219 sh@phelah > ,  and in the cities <5892 <iyr > of the south <5045 negeb > ,  and in the land <0776 >erets > of Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn > ,  and in the places about <5439 cabiyb > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  and in the cities <5892 <iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  shall the flocks <6629 tso>n > pass <5674 <abar > again <5750 <owd > under <5921 <al > the hands <3027 yad > of him that telleth <4487 manah >  [ them ]  ,  saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 14 Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  the days <3117 yowm > come <0935 bow> > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  that I will perform <6965 quwm > that good <2896 towb > thing <1697 dabar > which <0834 >aher > I have promised <1696 dabar > unto the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > and to the house <1004 bayith > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > .

 : 15 In those <1992 hem > days <3117 yowm > ,  and at that time <6256 <eth > ,  will I cause the Branch <6780 tsemach > of righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > to grow <6779 tsamach > up unto David <1732 David > ;  and he shall execute <6213 <asah > judgment <4941 mishpat > and righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > in the land <0776 >erets > .

 : 16 In those <1992 hem > days <3117 yowm > shall Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > be saved <3467 yasha< > ,  and Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > shall dwell <7931 shakan > safely <0983 betach > : and this <2088 zeh >  [ is the name ]  wherewith <0834 >aher > she shall be called <7121 qara> > ,  The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our righteousness <6664 tsedeq > .

 : 17 .  For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  David <1732 David > shall never <3808 lo> > want <3772 karath > a man <0376 >iysh > to sit <3427 yashab > upon the throne <3678 kicce> > of the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;

 : 19 And the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 20 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  If <0518 >im > ye can break <6565 parar > my covenant <1285 b@riyth > of the day <3117 yowm > ,  and my covenant <1285 b@riyth > of the night <3915 layil > ,  and that there should not be day <3119 yowmam > and night <3915 layil > in their season <6256 <eth > ;

 : 21  [ Then ]  may also <1571 gam > my covenant <1285 b@riyth > be broken <6565 parar > with David <1732 David > my servant <5650 <ebed > ,  that he should not have <1961 hayah > a son <1121 ben > to reign <4427 malak > upon his throne <3678 kicce> > ;  and with the Levites <3881 Leviyiy > the priests <3548 kohen > ,  my ministers <8334 sharath > .

 : 22 As the host <6635 tsaba> > of heaven <8064 shamayim > cannot <3808 lo> > be numbered <5608 caphar > ,  neither <3808 lo> > the sand <2344 chowl > of the sea <3220 yam > measured <4058 madad > : so <3651 ken > will I multiply <7235 rabah > the seed <2233 zera< > of David <1732 David > my servant <5650 <ebed > ,  and the Levites <3881 Leviyiy > that minister <8334 sharath > unto me .

 : 23 Moreover the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > to Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 24 Considerest <7200 ra>ah > thou not what <4100 mah > this <2088 zeh > people <5971 <am > have spoken <1696 dabar > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  The two <8147 sh@nayim > families <4940 mishpachah > which <0834 >aher > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath chosen <0977 bachar > ,  he hath even cast <3988 ma>ac > them off ?  thus they have despised <5006 na>ats > my people <5971 <am > ,  that they should be no more <5750 <owd > a nation <1471 gowy > before <6440 paniym > them .

 : 25 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  If <0518 >im > my covenant <1285 b@riyth >  [ be ]  not with day <3119 yowmam > and night <3915 layil > ,   [ and if ]  I have not appointed <7760 suwm > the ordinances <2708 chuqqah > of heaven <8064 shamayim > and earth <0776 >erets > ;

 : Jeremiah 34

 : 01 .  The word <1697 dabar > which <0834 >aher > came <1961 hayah > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  when Nebuchadnezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and all <3605 kol > his army <2428 chayil > ,  and all <3605 kol > the kingdoms <4467 mamlakah > of the earth <0776 >erets > of his dominion <4475 memshalah > ,  and all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > ,  fought <3898 lacham > against <5921 <al > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  and against <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > the cities <5892 <iyr > thereof ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 02 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  Go <1980 halak > and speak <0559 >amar > to Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  and tell <0559 >amar > him ,  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will give <5414 nathan > this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > into the hand <3027 yad > of the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and he shall burn <8313 saraph > it with fire <0784 >esh > :

 : 03 And thou shalt not escape <4422 malat > out of his hand <3027 yad > ,  but shalt surely <3588 kiy > be taken <8610 taphas > ,  and delivered <5414 nathan > into his hand <3027 yad > ;  and thine eyes <5869 <ayin > shall behold <7200 ra>ah > the eyes <5869 <ayin > of the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and he shall speak <1696 dabar > with thee mouth <6310 peh > to mouth <6310 peh > ,  and thou shalt go <0935 bow> > to Babylon <0894 Babel > .

 : 04 Yet <0389 >ak > hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  O Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ;  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of thee ,  Thou shalt not die <4191 muwth > by the sword <2719 chereb > :

 : 05  [ But ]  thou shalt die <4191 muwth > in peace <7965 shalowm > : and with the burnings <4955 misraphah > of thy fathers <1> ,  the former <7223 ri>shown > kings <4428 melek > which <0834 >aher > were before <6440 paniym > thee ,  so <3651 ken > shall they burn <8313 saraph >  [ odours ]  for thee ;  and they will lament <5594 caphad > thee ,   [ saying ]  ,  Ah <1945 howy > lord <0113 >adown > !  for I have pronounced <1696 dabar > the word <1697 dabar > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 06 Then Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > spake <1696 dabar > all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el - leh > words <1697 dabar > unto Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > in Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,

 : 07 When the king <4428 melek > of Babylon s <0894 Babel > army <2428 chayil > fought <3898 lacham > against <5921 <al > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  and against <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > the cities <5892 <iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > that were left <3498 yathar > ,  against <0413 >el > Lachish <3923 Lachiysh > ,  and against <0413 >el > Azekah <5825 <Azeqah > : for these <2007 hennah > defenced <4013 mibtsar > cities <5892 <iyr > remained <7604 sha>ar > of the cities <5892 <iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > .

 : 08 .   [ This is ]  the word <1697 dabar > that came <1961 hayah > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  after <0310 >achar > that the king <4428 melek > Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > had made <3772 karath > a covenant <1285 b@riyth > with all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > which <0834 >aher >  [ were ]  at Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  to proclaim <7121 qara> > liberty <1865 d@rowr > unto them ;

 : 09 That every man <0376 >iysh > should let his manservant <5650 <ebed > ,  and every man <0376 >iysh > his maidservant <8198 shiphchah > ,   [ being ]  an Hebrew <5680 <Ibriy > or an Hebrewess <5680 <Ibriy > ,  go <7971 shalach > free <2670 chophshiy > ;  that none <1115 biltiy > should serve <5647 <abad > himself of them ,   [ to wit ]  ,  of a Jew <3064 Y@huwdiy > his brother <0251 >ach > .

 : 10 Now when all <3605 kol > the princes <8269 sar > ,  and all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > ,  which <0834 >aher > had entered <0935 bow> > into the covenant <1285 b@riyth > ,  heard <8085 shama< > that every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > should let his manservant <5650 <ebed > ,  and every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > his maidservant <8198 shiphchah > ,  go <7971 shalach > free <2670 chophshiy > ,  that none <1115 biltiy > should serve <5647 <abad > themselves of them any more <5750 <owd > ,  then they obeyed <8085 shama< > ,  and let  [ them ]  go <7971 shalach > .

 : 11 But afterward they turned <7725 shuwb > ,  and caused the servants <5650 <ebed > and the handmaids <8198 shiphchah > ,  whom <0834 >aher > they had let go <7971 shalach > free <2670 chophshiy > ,  to return <7725 shuwb > ,  and brought <3533 kabash > them into subjection <3533 kabash > for servants <5650 <ebed > and for handmaids <8198 shiphchah > .

 : 12 Therefore the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > to Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 13 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  I made <3772 karath > a covenant <1285 b@riyth > with your fathers <1> in the day <3117 yowm > that I brought <3318 yatsa> > them forth <3318 yatsa> > out of the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ,  out of the house <1004 bayith > of bondmen <5650 <ebed > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 14 At the end <7093 qets > of seven <7651 sheba< > years <8141 shaneh > let ye go <7971 shalach > every man <0376 >iysh > his brother <0251 >ach > an Hebrew <5680 <Ibriy > ,  which <0834 >aher > hath been <1961 hayah > sold <4376 makar > unto thee ;  and when he hath served <5647 <abad > thee six <8337 shesh > years <8141 shaneh > ,  thou shalt let him go <7971 shalach > free <2670 chophshiy > from thee : but your fathers <1> hearkened <8085 shama< > not unto me ,  neither <3808 lo> > inclined <5186 natah > their ear <0241 >ozen > .

 : 15 And ye were now <3117 yowm > turned <7725 shuwb > ,  and had done <6213 <asah > right <3477 yashar > in my sight <5869 <ayin > ,  in proclaiming <7121 qara> > liberty <1865 d@rowr > every man <0376 >iysh > to his neighbour <7453 rea< > ;  and ye had made <3772 karath > a covenant <1285 b@riyth > before <6440 paniym > me in the house <1004 bayith > which <0834 >aher > is called <7121 qara> > by my name <8034 shem > :

 : 16 But ye turned <7725 shuwb > and polluted <2490 chalal > my name <8034 shem > ,  and caused every man <0376 >iysh > his servant <5650 <ebed > ,  and every man <0376 >iysh > his handmaid <8198 shiphchah > ,  whom <0834 >aher > ye had set <7971 shalach > at liberty <2670 chophshiy > at their pleasure <5315 nephesh > ,  to return <7725 shuwb > ,  and brought <3533 kabash > them into subjection <3533 kabash > ,  to be unto you for servants <5650 <ebed > and for handmaids <8198 shiphchah > .

 : 17 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  Ye have not hearkened <8085 shama< > unto me ,  in proclaiming <7121 qara> > liberty <1865 d@rowr > ,  every one <0376 >iysh > to his brother <0251 >ach > ,  and every man <0376 >iysh > to his neighbour <7453 rea< > : behold <2005 hen > ,  I proclaim <7121 qara> > a liberty <1865 d@rowr > for you ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  to the sword <2719 chereb > ,  to the pestilence <1698 deber > ,  and to the famine <7458 ra<ab > ;  and I will make <5414 nathan > you to be removed <2189 za<avah > into all <3605 kol > the kingdoms <4467 mamlakah > of the earth <0776 >erets > .

 : 18 And I will give <5414 nathan > the men <0582 >enowsh > that have transgressed <5674 <abar > my covenant <1285 b@riyth > ,  which <0834 >aher > have not performed <6965 quwm > the words <1697 dabar > of the covenant <1285 b@riyth > which <0834 >aher > they had made <3772 karath > before <6440 paniym > me ,  when they cut <3772 karath > the calf <5695 <egel > in twain <8147 sh@nayim > ,  and passed <5674 <abar > between <0996 beyn > the parts <1335 bether > thereof ,

 : 19 The princes <8269 sar > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  and the princes <8269 sar > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  the eunuchs <5631 cariyc > ,  and the priests <3548 kohen > ,  and all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > of the land <0776 >erets > ,  which passed <5674 <abar > between <0996 beyn > the parts <1335 bether > of the calf <5695 <egel > ;

 : 20 I will even give <5414 nathan > them into the hand <3027 yad > of their enemies <0341 >oyeb > ,  and into the hand <3027 yad > of them that seek <1245 baqash > their life <5315 nephesh > : and their dead <5038 n@belah > bodies <5038 n@belah > shall be for meat <3978 ma>akal > unto the fowls <5775 <owph > of the heaven <8064 shamayim > ,  and to the beasts <0929 b@hemah > of the earth <0776 >erets > .

 : 21 And Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > and his princes <8269 sar > will I give <5414 nathan > into the hand <3027 yad > of their enemies <0341 >oyeb > ,  and into the hand <3027 yad > of them that seek <1245 baqash > their life <5315 nephesh > ,  and into the hand <3027 yad > of the king <4428 melek > of Babylon s <0894 Babel > army <2428 chayil > ,  which are gone <5927 <alah > up from you .

 : 22 Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will command <6680 tsavah > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  and cause them to return <7725 shuwb > to this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > ;  and they shall fight <3898 lacham > against <5921 <al > it ,  and take <3920 lakad > it ,  and burn <8313 saraph > it with fire <0784 >esh > : and I will make <5414 nathan > the cities <5892 <iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > a desolation <8077 sh@mamah > without <0369 >ayin > an inhabitant <3427 yashab > .

 : Jeremiah 35

 : 01 .  The word <1697 dabar > which <0834 >aher > came <1961 hayah > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > in the days <3117 yowm > of Jehoiakim <3079 Y@howyaqiym > the son <1121 ben > of Josiah <2977 Yo>shiyah > king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 02 Go <1980 halak > unto the house <1004 bayith > of the Rechabites <7397 Rekah > ,  and speak <1696 dabar > unto them ,  and bring <0935 bow> > them into the house <1004 bayith > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  into <0413 >el > one <0259 >echad > of the chambers <3957 lishkah > ,  and give them wine <3196 yayin > to drink <8248 shaqah > .

 : 03 Then I took <3947 laqach > Jaazaniah <2970 Ya>azanyah > the son <1121 ben > of Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  the son <1121 ben > of Habaziniah <2262 Chabatstsanyah > ,  and his brethren <0251 >ach > ,  and all <3605 kol > his sons <1121 ben > ,  and the whole <3605 kol > house <1004 bayith > of the Rechabites <7397 Rekah > ;

 : 04 And I brought <0935 bow> > them into the house <1004 bayith > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  into <0413 >el > the chamber <3957 lishkah > of the sons <1121 ben > of Hanan <2605 Chanan > ,  the son <1121 ben > of Igdaliah <3012 Yigdalyahuw > ,  a man <0376 >iysh > of God <0430 >elohiym > ,  which <0834 >aher >  [ was ]  by the chamber <2315 cheder > of the princes <8269 sar > ,  which <0834 >aher >  [ was ]  above <4605 ma<al > the chamber <3957 lishkah > of Maaseiah <4641 Ma<aseyah > the son <1121 ben > of Shallum <7967 Shalluwm > ,  the keeper <8104 shamar > of the door <5592 caph > :

 : 05 And I set <5414 nathan > before <6440 paniym > the sons <1121 ben > of the house <1004 bayith > of the Rechabites <7397 Rekah > pots <1375 g@biya< > full <4392 male> > of wine <3196 yayin > ,  and cups <3563 kowc > ,  and I said <0559 >amar > unto them ,  Drink <8354 shathah > ye wine <3196 yayin > .

 : 06 But they said <0559 >amar > ,  We will drink <8354 shathah > no <3808 lo> > wine <3196 yayin > : for Jonadab <3122 Yawnadab > the son <1121 ben > of Rechab <7394 Rekab > our father <1> commanded <6680 tsavah > us ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Ye shall drink <8354 shathah > no <3808 lo> > wine <3196 yayin > ,   [ neither ye ]  ,  nor your sons <1121 ben > for ever <5769 <owlam > :

 : 08 Thus have we obeyed <8085 shama< > the voice <6963 qowl > of Jonadab <3082 Y@hownadab > the son <1121 ben > of Rechab <7394 Rekab > our father <1> in all <3605 kol > that he hath charged <6680 tsavah > us ,  to drink <8354 shathah > no <1115 biltiy > wine <3196 yayin > all <3605 kol > our days <3117 yowm > ,  we ,  our wives <0802 >ishshah > ,  our sons <1121 ben > ,  nor our daughters <1121 ben > ;

 : 10 But we have dwelt <3427 yashab > in tents <0168 >ohel > ,  and have obeyed <8085 shama< > ,  and done <6213 <asah > according to all <3605 kol > that Jonadab <3122 Yawnadab > our father <1> commanded <6680 tsavah > us .

 : 11 But it came <1961 hayah > to pass ,  when Nebuchadrezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > came <5927 <alah > up into <0413 >el > the land <0776 >erets > ,  that we said <0559 >amar > ,  Come <0935 bow> > ,  and let us go <0935 bow> > to Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > for fear <6440 paniym > of the army <2428 chayil > of the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > ,  and for fear <6440 paniym > of the army <2428 chayil > of the Syrians <0758 >Aram > : so we dwell <3427 yashab > at Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > .

 : 12 .  Then came <1961 hayah > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 13 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  Go <1980 halak > and tell <0559 >amar > the men <0376 >iysh > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > and the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  Will ye not receive <3947 laqach > instruction <4148 muwcar > to hearken <8085 shama< > to my words <1697 dabar > ?  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 14 The words <1697 dabar > of Jonadab <3082 Y@hownadab > the son <1121 ben > of Rechab <7394 Rekab > ,  that he commanded <6680 tsavah > his sons <1121 ben > not to drink <8354 shathah > wine <3196 yayin > ,  are performed <6965 quwm > ;  for unto this <2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm > they drink <8354 shathah > none <3808 lo> > ,  but obey <8085 shama< > their father s <1> commandment <4687 mitsvah > : notwithstanding I have spoken <1696 dabar > unto you ,  rising <7925 shakam > early <7925 shakam > and speaking <1696 dabar > ;  but ye hearkened <8085 shama< > not unto me .

 : 15 I have sent <7971 shalach > also unto you all <3605 kol > my servants <5650 <ebed > the prophets <5030 nabiy> > ,  rising <7925 shakam > up early <7925 shakam > and sending <7971 shalach >  [ them ]  ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Return <7725 shuwb > ye now <4994 na> > every man <0376 >iysh > from his evil <7451 ra< > way <1870 derek > ,  and amend <3190 yatab > your doings <4611 ma<alal > ,  and go <3212 yalak > not after <0310 >achar > other <0312 >acher > gods <0430 >elohiym > to serve <5647 <abad > them ,  and ye shall dwell <3427 yashab > in the land <0127 >adamah > which <0834 >aher > I have given <5414 nathan > to you and to your fathers <1> : but ye have not inclined <5186 natah > your ear <0241 >ozen > ,  nor <3808 lo> > hearkened <8085 shama< > unto me .

 : 16 Because <3588 kiy > the sons <1121 ben > of Jonadab <3082 Y@hownadab > the son <1121 ben > of Rechab <7394 Rekab > have performed <6965 quwm > the commandment <4687 mitsvah > of their father <1> ,  which <0834 >aher > he commanded <6680 tsavah > them ;  but this <2088 zeh > people <5971 <am > hath not hearkened <8085 shama< > unto me :

 : 17 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will bring <0935 bow> > upon Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > and upon all <3605 kol > the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > all <3605 kol > the evil <7451 ra< > that I have pronounced <1696 dabar > against <5921 <al > them : because <3282 ya<an > I have spoken <1696 dabar > unto them ,  but they have not heard <8085 shama< > ;  and I have called <7121 qara> > unto them ,  but they have not answered <6030 <anah > .

 : 18 And Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > said <0559 >amar > unto the house <1004 bayith > of the Rechabites <7397 Rekah > ,  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  Because ye have obeyed <8085 shama< > the commandment <4687 mitsvah > of Jonadab <3082 Y@hownadab > your father <1> ,  and kept <8104 shamar > all <3605 kol > his precepts <4687 mitsvah > ,  and done <6213 <asah > according unto all <3605 kol > that he hath commanded <6680 tsavah > you :

 : 19 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  Jonadab <3122 Yawnadab > the son <1121 ben > of Rechab <7394 Rekab > shall not want <3772 karath > a man <0376 >iysh > to stand <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > me for ever .

 : Jeremiah 36

 : 01 .  And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the fourth <7243 r@biy<iy > year <8141 shaneh > of Jehoiakim <3079 Y@howyaqiym > the son <1121 ben > of Josiah <2977 Yo>shiyah > king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,   [ that ]  this <2088 zeh > word <1697 dabar > came <1961 hayah > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 02 Take <3947 laqach > thee a roll <4039 m@gillah > of a book <5612 cepher > ,  and write <3789 kathab > therein <0413 >el > all <3605 kol > the words <1697 dabar > that I have spoken <1696 dabar > unto thee against <5921 <al > Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  and against <5921 <al > Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  and against <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > the nations <1471 gowy > ,  from the day <3117 yowm > I spake <1696 dabar > unto thee ,  from the days <3117 yowm > of Josiah <2977 Yo>shiyah > ,  even unto this <2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm > .

 : 03 It may be that the house <1004 bayith > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > will hear <8085 shama< > all <3605 kol > the evil <7451 ra< > which <0834 >aher > I purpose <2803 chashab > to do <6213 <asah > unto them ;  that they may return <7725 shuwb > every man <0376 >iysh > from his evil <7451 ra< > way <1870 derek > ;  that I may forgive <5545 calach > their iniquity <5771 <avon > and their sin <2403 chatta>ah > .

 : 04 Then Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > called <7121 qara> > Baruch <1263 Baruwk > the son <1121 ben > of Neriah <5374 Neriyah > : and Baruch <1263 Baruwk > wrote <3789 kathab > from the mouth <6310 peh > of Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > all <3605 kol > the words <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  which <0834 >aher > he had spoken <1696 dabar > unto him ,  upon a roll <4039 m@gillah > of a book <5612 cepher > .

 : 05 And Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > commanded <6680 tsavah > Baruch <1263 Baruwk > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  I  [ am ]  shut <6113 <atsar > up ;  I cannot go <0935 bow> > into the house <1004 bayith > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > :

 : 06 Therefore go <0935 bow> > thou ,  and read <7121 qara> > in the roll <4039 m@gillah > ,  which <0834 >aher > thou hast written <3789 kathab > from my mouth <6310 peh > ,  the words <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > in the ears <0241 >ozen > of the people <5971 <am > in the LORD S <3068 Y@hovah > house <1004 bayith > upon the fasting <6685 tsowm > day <3117 yowm > : and also <1571 gam > thou shalt read <7121 qara> > them in the ears <0241 >ozen > of all <3605 kol > Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > that come <0935 bow> > out of their cities <5892 <iyr > .

 : 07 It may be they will present <5307 naphal > their supplication <8467 t@chinnah > before <6440 paniym > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  and will return <7725 shuwb > every <0376 >iysh > one from his evil <7451 ra< > way <1870 derek > : for great <1419 gadowl >  [ is ]  the anger <0639 >aph > and the fury <2534 chemah > that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath pronounced <1696 dabar > against <0413 >el > this <2088 zeh > people <5971 <am > .

 : 08 And Baruch <1263 Baruwk > the son <1121 ben > of Neriah <5374 Neriyah > did <6213 <asah > according to all <3605 kol > that Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > commanded <6680 tsavah > him ,  reading <7121 qara> > in the book <5612 cepher > the words <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > in the LORD S <3068 Y@hovah > house <1004 bayith > .

 : 09 .  And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the fifth <2549 chamiyshiy > year <8141 shaneh > of Jehoiakim <3079 Y@howyaqiym > the son <1121 ben > of Josiah <2977 Yo>shiyah > king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  in the ninth <8671 t@shiy<iy > month <2320 chodesh > ,   [ that ]  they proclaimed <7121 qara> > a fast <6685 tsowm > before <6440 paniym > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > to all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > in Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  and to all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > that came <0935 bow> > from the cities <5892 <iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > unto Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > .

 : 10 Then read <7121 qara> > Baruch <1263 Baruwk > in the book <5612 cepher > the words <1697 dabar > of Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > in the house <1004 bayith > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  in the chamber <3957 lishkah > of Gemariah <1587 G@maryah > the son <1121 ben > of Shaphan <8227 shaphan > the scribe <5608 caphar > ,  in the higher <5945 >elyown > court <2691 chatser > ,  at the entry <6607 pethach > of the new <2319 chadash > gate <8179 sha<ar > of the LORD S <3068 Y@hovah > house <1004 bayith > ,  in the ears <0241 >ozen > of all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > .

 : 11 When Michaiah <4321 Miykay@huw > the son <1121 ben > of Gemariah <1587 G@maryah > ,  the son <1121 ben > of Shaphan <8227 shaphan > ,  had heard <8085 shama< > out of the book <5612 cepher > all <3605 kol > the words <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,

 : 12 Then he went <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > into the king s <4428 melek > house <1004 bayith > ,  into <5921 <al > the scribe s <5608 caphar > chamber <3957 lishkah > : and ,  lo <2009 hinneh > ,  all <3605 kol > the princes <8269 sar > sat <3427 yashab > there <8033 sham > ,   [ even ]  Elishama <0476 >Eliyshama< > the scribe <5608 caphar > ,  and Delaiah <1806 D@layah > the son <1121 ben > of Shemaiah <8098 Sh@ma<yah > ,  and Elnathan <0494 >Elnathan > the son <1121 ben > of Achbor <5907 <Akbowr > ,  and Gemariah <1587 G@maryah > the son <1121 ben > of Shaphan <8227 shaphan > ,  and Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > the son <1121 ben > of Hananiah <2608 Chananyah > ,  and all <3605 kol > the princes <8269 sar > .

 : 13 Then Michaiah <4321 Miykay@huw > declared <5046 nagad > unto them all <3605 kol > the words <1697 dabar > that he had heard <8085 shama< > ,  when Baruch <1263 Baruwk > read <7121 qara> > the book <5612 cepher > in the ears <0241 >ozen > of the people <5971 <am > .

 : 14 Therefore all <3605 kol > the princes <8269 sar > sent <7971 shalach > Jehudi <3065 Y@huwdiy > the son <1121 ben > of Nethaniah <5418 N@thanyah > ,  the son <1121 ben > of Shelemiah <8018 Shelemyah > ,  the son <1121 ben > of Cushi <3569 Kuwshiy > ,  unto Baruch <1263 Baruwk > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Take <3947 laqach > in thine hand <3027 yad > the roll <4039 m@gillah > wherein <0834 >aher > thou hast read <7121 qara> > in the ears <0241 >ozen > of the people <5971 <am > ,  and come <3212 yalak > .  So Baruch <1263 Baruwk > the son <1121 ben > of Neriah <5374 Neriyah > took <3947 laqach > the roll <4039 m@gillah > in his hand <3027 yad > ,  and came <0935 bow> > unto them .

 : 15 And they said <0559 >amar > unto him ,  Sit <3427 yashab > down now <4994 na> > ,  and read <7121 qara> > it in our ears <0241 >ozen > .  So Baruch <1263 Baruwk > read <7121 qara> >  [ it ]  in their ears <0241 >ozen > .

 : 16 Now it came <1961 hayah > to pass ,  when they had heard <8085 shama< > all <3605 kol > the words <1697 dabar > ,  they were afraid <6342 pachad > both <0413 >el > one <0376 >iysh > and other <7453 rea< > ,  and said <0559 >amar > unto Baruch <1263 Baruwk > ,  We will surely tell <5046 nagad > the king <4428 melek > of all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el - leh > words <1697 dabar > .

 : 17 And they asked <7592 sha>al > Baruch <1263 Baruwk > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Tell <5046 nagad > us now <4994 na> > ,  How <0349 >eyk > didst thou write <3789 kathab > all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el - leh > words <1697 dabar > at his mouth <6310 peh > ?

 : 18 Then Baruch <1263 Baruwk > answered <0559 >amar > them ,  He pronounced <7126 qarab > all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el - leh > words <1697 dabar > unto me with his mouth <6310 peh > ,  and I wrote <3789 kathab >  [ them ]  with ink <1773 d@yow > in the book <5612 cepher > .

 : 19 Then said <0559 >amar > the princes <8269 sar > unto Baruch <1263 Baruwk > ,  Go <3212 yalak > ,  hide <5641 cathar > thee ,  thou and Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ;  and let no <0408 >al > man <0376 >iysh > know <3045 yada< > where <0375 >eyphoh > ye be .

 : 20 .  And they went <0935 bow> > in to the king <4428 melek > into the court <2691 chatser > ,  but they laid <6485 paqad > up the roll <4039 m@gillah > in the chamber <3957 lishkah > of Elishama <0476 >Eliyshama< > the scribe <5608 caphar > ,  and told <5046 nagad > all <3605 kol > the words <1697 dabar > in the ears <0241 >ozen > of the king <4428 melek > .

 : 21 So the king <4428 melek > sent <7971 shalach > Jehudi <3065 Y@huwdiy > to fetch <3947 laqach > the roll <4039 m@gillah > : and he took <3947 laqach > it out of Elishama <0476 >Eliyshama< > the scribe s <5608 caphar > chamber <3957 lishkah > .  And Jehudi <3065 Y@huwdiy > read <7121 qara> > it in the ears <0241 >ozen > of the king <4428 melek > ,  and in the ears <0241 >ozen > of all <3605 kol > the princes <8269 sar > which stood <5975 <amad > beside <5921 <al > the king <4428 melek > .

 : 22 Now the king <4428 melek > sat <3427 yashab > in the winterhouse <2779 choreph > in the ninth <8671 t@shiy<iy > month <2320 chodesh > : and  [ there was a fire ]  on the hearth <0254 >ach > burning <1197 ba<ar > before <6440 paniym > him .

 : 23 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass ,   [ that ]  when Jehudi <3065 Y@huwdiy > had read <7121 qara> > three <7969 shalowsh > or four <0702 >arba< > leaves <1817 deleth > ,  he cut <7167 qara< > it with the penknife <8593 ta<ar > ,  and cast <7933 sheken >  [ it ]  into <0413 >el > the fire <0784 >esh > that  [ was ]  on <0413 >el > the hearth <0254 >ach > ,  until <5704 <ad > all <3605 kol > the roll <4039 m@gillah > was consumed <8552 tamam > in the fire <0784 >esh > that  [ was ]  on <5921 <al > the hearth <0254 >ach > .

 : 24 Yet they were not afraid <6342 pachad > ,  nor <3808 lo> > rent <7167 qara< > their garments <0899 beged > ,   [ neither ]  the king <4428 melek > ,  nor any <3605 kol > of his servants <5650 <ebed > that heard <8085 shama< > all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el - leh > words <1697 dabar > .

 : 25 Nevertheless <1571 gam > Elnathan <0494 >Elnathan > and Delaiah <1806 D@layah > and Gemariah <1587 G@maryah > had made intercession <6293 paga< > to the king <4428 melek > that he would not burn <8313 saraph > the roll <4039 m@gillah > : but he would not hear <8085 shama< > them .

 : 26 But the king <4428 melek > commanded <6680 tsavah > Jerahmeel <3396 Y@rachm@>el > the son <1121 ben > of Hammelech <4429 Melek > ,  and Seraiah <8304 S@rayah > the son <1121 ben > of Azriel <5837 <Azriy>el > ,  and Shelemiah <8018 Shelemyah > the son <1121 ben > of Abdeel <5655 <Abd@>el > ,  to take <3947 laqach > Baruch <1263 Baruwk > the scribe <5608 caphar > and Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > : but the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hid <5641 cathar > them .

 : 27 Then the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > to Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  after <0310 >achar > that the king <4428 melek > had burned <8313 saraph > the roll <4039 m@gillah > ,  and the words <1697 dabar > which <0834 >aher > Baruch <1263 Baruwk > wrote <3789 kathab > at the mouth <6310 peh > of Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 28 Take <3947 laqach > thee again <7725 shuwb > another <0312 >acher > roll<4039 m@gillah > ,  and write <3789 kathab > in it all <3605 kol > the former <7223 ri>shown > words <1697 dabar > that were in the first <7223 ri>shown > roll <4039 m@gillah > ,  which <0834 >aher > Jehoiakim <3079 Y@howyaqiym > the king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > hath burned <8313 saraph > .

 : 29 And thou shalt say <0559 >amar > to Jehoiakim <3079 Y@howyaqiym > king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  Thou hast burned <8313 saraph > this <2063 zo>th > roll <4039 m@gillah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Why <4069 madduwa< > hast thou written <3789 kathab > therein <5921 <al > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  The king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > shall certainly come <0935 bow> > and destroy <7843 shachath > this <2063 zo>th > land <0776 >erets > ,  and shall cause to cease <7673 shabath > from thence man <0120 >adam > and beast <0929 b@hemah > ?

 : 30 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of Jehoiakim <3079 Y@howyaqiym > king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ;  He shall have <1961 hayah > none <3808 lo> > to sit <3427 yashab > upon the throne <3678 kicce> > of David <1732 David > : and his dead <5038 n@belah > body <5038 n@belah > shall be cast <7933 sheken > out in the day <3117 yowm > to the heat <2721 choreb > ,  and in the night <3915 layil > to the frost <7140 qerach > .

 : 31 And I will punish <6485 paqad > him and his seed <2233 zera< > and his servants <5650 <ebed > for their iniquity <5771 <avon > ;  and I will bring <0935 bow> > upon them ,  and upon the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  and upon the men <0376 >iysh > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  all <3605 kol > the evil <7451 ra< > that I have pronounced <1691 Diblayim > against <0413 >el > them ;  but they hearkened <8085 shama< > not .

 : 32 Then took <3947 laqach > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > another <0312 >acher > roll <4039 m@gillah > ,  and gave <5414 nathan > it to Baruch <1263 Baruwk > the scribe <5608 caphar > ,  the son <1121 ben > of Neriah <5374 Neriyah > ;  who wrote <3789 kathab > therein <5921 <al > from the mouth <6310 peh > of Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > all <3605 kol > the words <1697 dabar > of the book <5612 cepher > which <0834 >aher > Jehoiakim <3079 Y@howyaqiym > king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > had burned <8313 saraph > in the fire <0784 >esh > : and there were added <3254 yacaph > besides <5750 <owd > unto them many <7227 rab > like <1922 hadar > words <1697 dabar > .

 : Jeremiah 37

 : 01 .  And king <4428 melek > Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > the son <1121 ben > of Josiah <2977 Yo>shiyah > reigned <4427 malak > instead <8478 tachath > of Coniah <3659 Konyahuw > the son <1121 ben > of Jehoiakim <3079 Y@howyaqiym > ,  whom <0834 >aher > Nebuchadrezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > made king <4428 melek > in the land <0776 >erets > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > .

 : 02 But neither <3808 lo> > he ,  nor his servants <5650 <ebed > ,  nor the people <5971 <am > of the land <0776 >erets > ,  did hearken <8085 shama< > unto the words <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  which <0834 >aher > he spake <1696 dabar > by the prophet <5030 nabiy> > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > .

 : 03 And Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > the king <4428 melek > sent <7971 shalach > Jehucal <3081 Y@huwkal > the son <1121 ben > of Shelemiah <8018 Shelemyah > and Zephaniah <6846 Ts@phanyah > the son <1121 ben > of Maaseiah <4641 Ma<aseyah > the priest <3548 kohen > to the prophet <5030 nabiy> > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Pray <6419 palal > now <4994 na> > unto the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God <0430 >elohiym > for us .

 : 04 Now Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > came <0935 bow> > in and went <3318 yatsa> > out among <8432 tavek > the people <5971 <am > : for they had not put <5414 nathan > him into prison .

 : 05 Then Pharaoh s <6547 Par<oh > army <2428 chayil > was come <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > : and when the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > that besieged <6696 tsuwr > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > heard <8085 shama< > tidings <8088 shema< > of them ,  they departed <5927 <alah > from Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > .

 : 06 Then came <1961 hayah > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > unto the prophet <5030 nabiy> > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 07 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  Thus <3541 koh > shall ye say <0559 >amar > to the king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  that sent <7971 shalach > you unto me to enquire <1875 darash > of me ;  Behold <2005 hen > ,  Pharaoh s <6547 Par<oh > army <2428 chayil > ,  which is come <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > to help <5833 <ezrah > you ,  shall return <7725 shuwb > to Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > into their own land <0776 >erets > .

 : 08 And the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > shall come <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > ,  and fight <3898 lacham > against <5921 <al > this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > ,  and take <3920 lakad > it ,  and burn <8313 saraph > it with fire <0784 >esh > .

 : 09 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  Deceive <5377 nasha> > not yourselves <5315 nephesh > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  The Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > shall surely depart <1980 halak > from us : for they shall not depart <1980 halak > .

 : 10 For though <0518 >im > ye had smitten <5221 nakah > the whole <3605 kol > army <2428 chayil > of the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > that fight <3898 lacham > against you ,  and there remained <7604 sha>ar >  [ but ]  wounded <1856 daqar > men <0582 >enowsh > among them ,   [ yet ]  should they rise <6965 quwm > up every man <0376 >iysh > in his tent <0168 >ohel > ,  and burn <8313 saraph > this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > with fire <0784 >esh > .

 : 11 .  And it came <1961 hayah > to pass ,  that when the army <2428 chayil > of the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > was broken <5927 <alah > up from Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > for fear <6440 paniym > of Pharaoh s <6547 Par<oh > army <2428 chayil > ,

 : 12 Then Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > went <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > to go <3212 yalak > into the land <0776 >erets > of Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn > ,  to separate <2505 chalaq > himself thence <8033 sham > in the midst <8432 tavek > of the people <5971 <am > .

 : 13 And when he was in the gate <8179 sha<ar > of Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn > ,  a captain <1167 ba<al > of the ward <6488 p@qiduth >  [ was ]  there <8033 sham > ,  whose name <8034 shem >  [ was ]  Irijah <3376 Yir>iyayh > ,  the son <1121 ben > of Shelemiah <8018 Shelemyah > ,  the son <1121 ben > of Hananiah <2608 Chananyah > ;  and he took <8610 taphas > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Thou fallest <5307 naphal > away to the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > .

 : 14 Then said <0559 >amar > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,   [ It is ]  false <8267 sheqer > ;  I fall <5307 naphal > not away to the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > .  But he hearkened <8085 shama< > not to him : so Irijah <3376 Yir>iyayh > took <8610 taphas > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  and brought <0935 bow> > him to the princes <8269 sar > .

 : 15 Wherefore the princes <8269 sar > were wroth <7107 qatsaph > with Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  and smote <5221 nakah > him ,  and put <5414 nathan > him in prison <0612 >ecuwr > in the house <1004 bayith > of Jonathan <3083 Y@hownathan > the scribe <5608 caphar > : for they had made <6213 <asah > that the prison <3608 kele> > .

 : 16 When <3588 kiy > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > was entered <0935 bow> > into <0413 >el > the dungeon <0953 bowr > ,  and into <0413 >el > the cabins <2588 chanuwth > ,  and Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > had remained <3427 yashab > there <8033 sham > many <7227 rab > days <3117 yowm > ;

 : 17 Then Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > the king <4428 melek > sent <7971 shalach > ,  and took <3947 laqach > him out : and the king <4428 melek > asked <7592 sha>al > him secretly <5643 cether > in his house <1004 bayith > ,  and said <0559 >amar > ,  Is there  [ any ]  word <1697 dabar > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ?  And Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > said <0559 >amar > ,  There is : for ,  said <0559 >amar > he ,  thou shalt be delivered <5414 nathan > into the hand <3027 yad > of the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > .

 : 18 Moreover Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > said <0559 >amar > unto king <4428 melek > Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > ,  What <4100 mah > have I offended <2398 chata> > against thee ,  or against thy servants <5650 <ebed > ,  or against this <2088 zeh > people <5971 <am > ,  that ye have put <5414 nathan > me in prison ?

 : 19 Where <0346 >ayeh >  [ are ]  now your prophets <5030 nabiy> > which <0834>aher > prophesied <5012 naba> > unto you ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  The king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > shall not come <0935 bow> > against <5921 <al > you ,  nor against <5921 <al > this <2063 zo>th > land <0776 >erets > ?

 : 20 Therefore hear <8085 shama< > now <6254 <Asht@rathiy > ,  I pray <4994 na> > thee ,  O my lord <0113 >adown > the king <4428 melek > : let my supplication <8467 t@chinnah > ,  I pray <4994 na> > thee ,  be accepted <5307 naphal > before <6440 paniym > thee ;  that thou cause me not to return <7725 shuwb > to the house <1004 bayith > of Jonathan <3083 Y@hownathan > the scribe <5608 caphar > ,  lest <3808 lo> > I die <4191 muwth > there <8033 sham > .

 : 21 Then Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > the king <4428 melek > commanded <6680 tsavah > that they should commit <6458 pacal > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > into the court <2691 chatser > of the prison <4307 mattara> > ,  and that they should give <5414 nathan > him daily <3117 yowm > a piece <3603 kikkar > of bread <3899 lechem > out of the bakers <0644 >aphah >  street <2351 chuwts > ,  until <5704 <ad > all <3605 kol > the bread <3899 lechem > in the city <5892 <iyr > were spent <8552 tamam > .  Thus Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > remained <3427 yashab > in the court <2691 chatser > of the prison <4307 mattara> > .

 : Jeremiah 38

 : 01 .  Then Shephatiah <8203 Sh@phatyah > the son <1121 ben > of Mattan <4977 Mattan > ,  and Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > the son <1121 ben > of Pashur <6583 Pashchuwr > ,  and Jucal <3116 Yuwkal > the son <1121 ben > of Shelemiah <8018 Shelemyah > ,  and Pashur <6583 Pashchuwr > the son <1121 ben > of Malchiah <4441 Malkiyah > ,  heard <8085 shama< > the words <1697 dabar > that Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > had spoken <1696 dabar > unto all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 02 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  He that remaineth <3427 yashab > in this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > shall die <4191 muwth > by the sword <2719 chereb > ,  by the famine <7458 ra<ab > ,  and by the pestilence <1698 deber > : but he that goeth <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > to the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > shall live <2421 chayah > ;  for he shall have his life <5315 nephesh > for a prey <7998 shalal > ,  and shall live <2425 chayay > .

 : 03 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  This <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > shall surely be given <5414 nathan > into the hand <3027 yad > of the king <4428 melek > of Babylon s <0894 Babel > army <2428 chayil > ,  which shall take <3920 lakad > it .

 : 04 Therefore the princes <8269 sar > said <0559 >amar > unto the king <4428 melek > ,  We beseech <4994 na> > thee ,  let this <2088 zeh > man <0376 >iysh > be put to death <4191 muwth > : for thus he weakeneth <7503 raphah > the hands <3027 yad > of the men <0582 >enowsh > of war <4421 milchamah > that remain <7604 sha>ar > in this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > ,  and the hands <3027 yad > of all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > ,  in speaking <1696 dabar > such <0428 >el - leh > words <1697 dabar > unto them : for this <2088 zeh > man <0376 >iysh > seeketh <1875 darash > not the welfare <7965 shalowm > of this <2088 zeh > people <5971 <am > ,  but the hurt <7451 ra< > .

 : 05 Then Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > the king <4428 melek > said <0559 >amar > ,  Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  he  [ is ]  in your hand <3027 yad > : for the king <4428 melek >  [ is ]  not  [ he that ]  can <3201 yakol > do  [ any ]  thing <1697 dabar > against you .

 : 06 Then took <3947 laqach > they Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  and cast <7933 sheken > him into <0413 >el > the dungeon <0953 bowr > of Malchiah <4441 Malkiyah > the son <1121 ben > of Hammelech <4429 Melek > ,  that  [ was ]  in the court <2691 chatser > of the prison <4307 mattara> > : and they let <7971 shalach > down <7971 shalach > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > with cords <2256 chebel > .  And in the dungeon <0953 bowr >  [ there was ]  no <0369 >ayin > water <4325 mayim > ,  but mire <2916 tiyt > : so Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > sunk <2883 taba< > in the mire <2916 tiyt > .

 : 07 Now when Ebedmelech <5663 <Ebed Melek > the Ethiopian <3569 Kuwshiy > ,  one <0376 >iysh > of the eunuchs <5631 cariyc > which <1931 huw> > was in the king s <4428 melek > house <1004 bayith > ,  heard <8085 shama< > that they had put <5414 nathan > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > in the dungeon <0953 bowr > ;  the king <4428 melek > then sitting <3427 yashab > in the gate <8179 sha<ar > of Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn > ;

 : 08 Ebedmelech <5663 <Ebed Melek > went <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of the king s <4428 melek > house <1004 bayith > ,  and spake <1696 dabar > to the king <4428 melek > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 09 My lord <0113 >adown > the king <4428 melek > ,  these <0428 >el - leh > men <0582 >enowsh > have done evil <7489 ra<a< > in all <3605 kol > that they have done <6213 <asah > to Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > ,  whom they have cast <7933 sheken > into <0413 >el > the dungeon <0953 bowr > ;  and he is like to die <4191 muwth > for hunger <7457 ra<eb > in the place <8478 tachath > where <8478 tachath > he is : for  [ there is ]  no <0369 >ayin > more <5750 <owd > bread <3899 lechem > in the city <5892 <iyr > .

 : 10 Then the king <4428 melek > commanded <6680 tsavah > Ebedmelech <5663 <Ebed Melek > the Ethiopian <3569 Kuwshiy > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Take <3947 laqach > from hence <2088 zeh > thirty <7970 sh@lowshiym > men <0582 >enowsh > with thee ,  and take <3947 laqach > up Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > out of the dungeon <0953 bowr > ,  before <2962 terem > he die <4191 muwth > .

 : 11 So Ebedmelech <5663 <Ebed Melek > took <3947 laqach > the men <0582 >enowsh > with him ,  and went <0935 bow> > into the house <1004 bayith > of the king <4428 melek > under the treasury <0214 >owtsar > ,  and took <3947 laqach > thence <8033 sham > old <1094 b@low> > cast <5499 c@chabah > clouts <5499 c@chabah > and old <1094 b@low> > rotten <4418 malach > rags <4418 malach > ,  and let <7971 shalach > them down <7971 shalach > by cords <2256 chebel > into <0413 >el > the dungeon <0953 bowr > to Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > .

 : 12 And Ebedmelech <5663 <Ebed Melek > the Ethiopian <3569 Kuwshiy > said <0559 >amar > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  Put <7760 suwm > now <4994 na> >  [ these ]  old <1094 b@low> > cast <5499 c@chabah > clouts <5499 c@chabah > and rotten <4418 malach > rags <4418 malach > under <8478 tachath > thine armholes under <8478 tachath > the cords <2256 chebel > .  And Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > did <6213 <asah > so <3651 ken > .

 : 13 So they drew <4900 mashak > up Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > with cords <2256 chebel > ,  and took <5927 <alah > him up out of the dungeon <0953 bowr > : and Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > remained <3427 yashab > in the court <2691 chatser > of the prison <4307 mattara> > .

 : 14 .  Then Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > the king <4428 melek > sent <7971 shalach > ,  and took <3947 laqach > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > unto him into <0413 >el > the third <7992 sh@liyshiy > entry <3996 mabow> > that  [ is ]  in the house <1004 bayith > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > : and the king <4428 melek > said <0559 >amar > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  I will ask <7592 sha>al > thee a thing <1697 dabar > ;  hide <3582 kachad > nothing from me .

 : 15 Then Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > said <0559 >amar > unto Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > ,  If <0518 >im > I declare <5046 nagad >  [ it ]  unto thee ,  wilt thou not surely put me to death <4191 muwth > ?  and if <0518 >im > I give thee counsel <3289 ya<ats > ,  wilt thou not hearken <8085 shama< > unto me ?

 : 16 So Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > the king <4428 melek > sware <7650 shaba< > secretly <5643 cether > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,   [ As ]  the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > liveth <2416 chay > ,  that made <6213 <asah > us this <2063 zo>th > soul <5315 nephesh > ,  I will not put thee to death <4191 muwth > ,  neither <0518 >im > will I give <5414 nathan > thee into the hand <3027 yad > of these <0428 >el - leh > men <0582 >enowsh > that seek <1245 baqash > thy life <5315 nephesh > .

 : 17 Then said <0559 >amar > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > unto Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > ,  Thus saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  If <0518 >im > thou wilt assuredly <3318 yatsa> > go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > unto the king <4428 melek > of Babylon s <0894 Babel > princes <8269 sar > ,  then thy soul <5315 nephesh > shall live <2421 chayah > ,  and this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > shall not be burned <8313 saraph > with fire <0784 >esh > ;  and thou shalt live <2421 chayah > ,  and thine house <1004 bayith > :

 : 18 But if <0518 >im > thou wilt not go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > to the king <4428 melek > of Babylon s <0894 Babel > princes <8269 sar > ,  then shall this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > be given <5414 nathan > into the hand <3027 yad > of the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > ,  and they shall burn <8313 saraph > it with fire <0784 >esh > ,  and thou shalt not escape <4422 malat > out of their hand <3027 yad > .

 : 19 And Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > the king <4428 melek > said <0559 >amar > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  I am afraid <1672 da>ag > of the Jews <3064 Y@huwdiy > that are fallen <5307 naphal > to the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > ,  lest <6435 pen > they deliver <5414 nathan > me into their hand <3027 yad > ,  and they mock <5953 <alal > me .

 : 20 But Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > said <0559 >amar > ,  They shall not deliver <5414 nathan >  [ thee ]  .  Obey <8085 shama< > ,  I beseech <4994 na> > thee ,  the voice <6963 qowl > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  which <0834 >aher > I speak <1696 dabar > unto thee : so it shall be well <3190 yatab > unto thee ,  and thy soul <5315 nephesh > shall live <2421 chayah > .

 : 21 But if thou refuse <3986 ma>en > to go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > ,  this <2088 zeh >  [ is ]  the word <1697 dabar > that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath shewed <7200 ra>ah > me :

 : 22 And ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  all <3605 kol > the women <0802 >ishshah > that are left <7604 sha>ar > in the king <4428 melek > of Judah s <3063 Y@huwdah > house <1004 bayith >  [ shall be ]  brought <3318 yatsa> > forth <4163 mowtsa>ah > to the king <4428 melek > of Babylon s <0894 Babel > princes <8269 sar > ,  and those <2007 hennah >  [ women ]  shall say <0559 >amar > ,  Thy friends have set <5496 cuwth > thee on ,  and have prevailed <3201 yakol > against thee : thy feet <7272 regel > are sunk <2883 taba< > in the mire <1206 bots > ,   [ and ]  they are turned <5472 cuwg > away back <0268 >achowr > .

 : 23 So they shall bring <4672 matsa> > out all <3605 kol > thy wives <0802 >ishshah > and thy children <1121 ben > to the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > : and thou shalt not escape <4422 malat > out of their hand <3027 yad > ,  but shalt be taken <8610 taphas > by the hand <3027 yad > of the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > : and thou shalt cause this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > to be burned <8313 saraph > with fire <0784 >esh > .

 : 24 Then said <0559 >amar > Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  Let no <0408 >al > man <0376 >iysh > know <3045 yada< > of these <0428 >el - leh > words <1697 dabar > ,  and thou shalt not die <4191 muwth > .

 : 25 But if <3588 kiy > the princes <8269 sar > hear <8085 shama< > that I have talked <1696 dabar > with thee ,  and they come <0935 bow> > unto thee ,  and say <0559 >amar > unto thee ,  Declare <5046 nagad > unto us now <4994 na> > what <4100 mah > thou hast said <1696 dabar > unto the king <4428 melek > ,  hide <3582 kachad > it not from us ,  and we will not put thee to death <4191 muwth > ;  also what <4100 mah > the king <4428 melek > said <1696 dabar > unto thee :

 : 26 Then thou shalt say <0559 >amar > unto them ,  I presented <5307 naphal > my supplication <8467 t@chinnah > before <6440 paniym > the king <4428 melek > ,  that he would not cause me to return <7725 shuwb > to Jonathan s <3129 Yownathan > house <1004 bayith > ,  to die <4191 muwth > there <8033 sham > .

 : 27 Then came <0935 bow> > all <3605 kol > the princes <8269 sar > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  and asked <7592 sha>al > him : and he told <5046 nagad > them according to all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el - leh > words <1697 dabar > that the king <4428 melek > had commanded <6680 tsavah > .  So they left <2790 charash > off speaking <2790 charash > with him ;  for the matter <1697 dabar > was not perceived <8085 shama< > .

 : 28 So Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > abode <3427 yashab > in the court <2691 chatser > of the prison <4307 mattara> > until <5704 <ad > the day <3117 yowm > that Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > was taken <3920 lakad > : and he was  [ there ]  when <0834 >aher > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > was taken <3920 lakad > .

 : 01 .  In the ninth <8671 t@shiy<iy > year <8141 shaneh > of Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  in the tenth <6224 <asiyriy > month <2320 chodesh > ,  came <0935 bow> > Nebuchadrezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > and all <3605 kol > his army <2428 chayil > against <0413 >el > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  and they besieged <6696 tsuwr > it .

 : 02  [ And ]  in the eleventh year <8141 shaneh > of Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > ,  in the fourth <7243 r@biy<iy > month <2320 chodesh > ,  the ninth <8672 tesha< >  [ day <3117 yowm > ]  of the month <2320 chodesh > ,  the city <5892 <iyr > was broken <1234 baqa< > up .

 : 03 And all <3605 kol > the princes <8269 sar > of the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > came <0935 bow> > in ,  and sat <3427 yashab > in the middle <8484 tiykown > gate <8179 sha<ar > ,   [ even ]  Nergalsharezer <5371 Nergal Shar>etser > ,  Samgarnebo <5562 Camgar N@bow > ,  Sarsechim <8310 Sarc@kiym > ,  Rabsaris <7249 Rab - Cariyc > ,  Nergalsharezer <5371 Nergal Shar>etser > ,  Rabmag <7248 Rab - Mag > ,  with all <3605 kol > the residue <7611 sh@>eriyth > of the princes <8269 sar > of the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > .

 : 04 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass ,   [ that ]  when <0834 >aher > Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > the king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > saw <7200 ra>ah > them ,  and all <3605 kol > the men <0582 >enowsh > of war <4421 milchamah > ,  then they fled <1272 barach > ,  and went <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of the city <5892 <iyr > by night <3915 layil > ,  by the way <1870 derek > of the king s <4428 melek > garden <1588 gan > ,  by the gate <8179 sha<ar > betwixt <0996 beyn > the two <8147 sh@nayim > walls <2346 chowmah > : and he went <3318 yatsa> > out the way <1870 derek > of the plain <6160 <arabah > .

 : 05 But the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy >  army <2428 chayil > pursued <7291 radaph > after <0310 >achar > them ,  and overtook <5381 nasag > Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > in the plains <6160 <arabah > of Jericho <3405 Y@riychow > : and when they had taken <3947 laqach > him ,  they brought <5927 <alah > him up to Nebuchadnezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > to Riblah <7247 Riblah > in the land <0776 >erets > of Hamath <2574 Chamath > ,  where he gave <1696 dabar > judgment <4941 mishpat > upon him .

 : 06 Then the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > slew <7819 shachat > the sons <1121 ben > of Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > in Riblah <7247 Riblah > before his eyes <5869 <ayin > : also the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > slew <7819 shachat > all <3605 kol > the nobles <2715 chor > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > .

 : 07 Moreover he put <5786 <avar > out Zedekiah s eyes <5869 <ayin > ,  and bound <0631 >acar > him with chains <5178 n@chosheth > ,  to carry <0935 bow> > him to Babylon <0894 Babel > .

 : 08 And the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > burned <8313 saraph > the king s <4428 melek > house <1004 bayith > ,  and the houses <1004 bayith > of the people <5971 <am > ,  with fire <0784 >esh > ,  and brake <5422 nathats > down <5422 nathats > the walls <2346 chowmah > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > .

 : 09 Then Nebuzaradan <5018 N@buwzaradan > the captain <7227 rab > of the guard <2876 tabbach > carried <1540 galah > away captive <1540 galah > into Babylon <0894 Babel > the remnant <3499 yether > of the people <5971 <am > that remained <7604 sha>ar > in the city <5892 <iyr > ,  and those that fell <5307 naphal > away ,  that fell <5307 naphal > to him ,  with the rest <3499 yether > of the people <5971 <am > that remained <7604 sha>ar > .

 : 10 But Nebuzaradan <5018 N@buwzaradan > the captain of the guard <2876 tabbach > left <7604 sha>ar > of the poor <1800 dal > of the people <5971 <am > ,  which <0834 >aher > had nothing ,  in the land <0776 >erets > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  and gave <5414 nathan > them vineyards <3754 kerem > and fields <3010 yageb > at the same <1931 huw> > time <3117 yowm > .

 : 11 .  Now Nebuchadrezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > gave charge <6680 tsavah > concerning <5921 <al > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > to Nebuzaradan <5018 N@buwzaradan > the captain <7227 rab > of the guard <2876 tabbach > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 12 Take <3947 laqach > him ,  and look <7760 suwm > well to him ,  and do <6213 <asah > him no <0408 >al > harm <7451 ra< > ;  but do <6213 <asah > unto him even <3651 ken > as he shall say <1696 dabar > unto thee .

 : 13 So Nebuzaradan <5018 N@buwzaradan > the captain <7227 rab > of the guard <2876 tabbach > sent <7971 shalach > ,  and Nebushasban <5021 N@buwshazban > ,  Rabsaris <7249 Rab - Cariyc > ,  and Nergalsharezer <5371 Nergal Shar>etser > ,  Rabmag <7248 Rab - Mag > ,  and all <3605 kol > the king <4428 melek > of Babylon s <0894 Babel > princes <7227 rab > ;

 : 14 Even they sent <7971 shalach > ,  and took <3947 laqach > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > out of the court <2691 chatser > of the prison <4307 mattara> > ,  and committed <5414 nathan > him unto Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > the son <1121 ben > of Ahikam <0296 >Achiyqam > the son <1121 ben > of Shaphan <8227 shaphan > ,  that he should carry <3318 yatsa> > him home <1004 bayith > : so he dwelt <3427 yashab > among <8432 tavek > the people <5971 <am > .

 : 15 Now the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  while he was shut <6113 <atsar > up in the court <2691 chatser > of the prison <4307 mattara> > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 16 Go <1980 halak > and speak <0559 >amar > to Ebedmelech <5663 <Ebed Melek > the Ethiopian <3569 Kuwshiy > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will bring <0935 bow> > my words <1697 dabar > upon this <2063 zo>th > city <5892 <iyr > for evil <7451 ra< > ,  and not for good <2896 towb > ;  and they shall be  [ accomplished ]  in that day <3117 yowm > before <6440 paniym > thee .

 : 17 But I will deliver <5337 natsal > thee in that day <3117 yowm > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > : and thou shalt not be given <5414 nathan > into the hand <3027 yad > of the men <0582 >enowsh > of whom thou  [ art ]  afraid <3025 yagor > .

 : 18 For I will surely deliver <4422 malat > thee ,  and thou shalt not fall <5307 naphal > by the sword <2719 chereb > ,  but thy life <5315 nephesh > shall be for a prey <7998 shalal > unto thee : because <3588 kiy > thou hast put thy trust <0982 batach > in me ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : Jeremiah 40

 : 01 .  The word <1697 dabar > that came <1961 hayah > to Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  after <0310 >achar > that Nebuzaradan <5018 N@buwzaradan > the captain <7227 rab > of the guard <2876 tabbach > had let him go <7971 shalach > from Ramah <7414 Ramah > ,  when he had taken <3947 laqach > him being bound <0631 >acar > in chains <0246 >aziqqiym > among <8432 tavek > all <3605 kol > that were carried <1546 galuwth > away captive <1546 galuwth > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > and Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  which were carried <1540 galah > away captive <1540 galah > unto Babylon <0894 Babel > .

 : 02 And the captain <7227 rab > of the guard <2876 tabbach > took <3947 laqach > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  and said <0559 >amar > unto him ,  The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > thy God <0430 >elohiym > hath pronounced <1691 Diblayim > this <2063 zo>th > evil <7451 ra< > upon this <2088 zeh > place <4725 maqowm > .

 : 03 Now the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath brought <0935 bow> >  [ it ]  ,  and done <6213 <asah > according as he hath said <1696 dabar > : because <3588 kiy > ye have sinned <2398 chata> > against the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  and have not obeyed <8085 shama< > his voice <6963 qowl > ,  therefore this <2088 zeh > thing <1697 dabar > is come <1961 hayah > upon you .

 : 04 And now <6258 <attah > ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  I loose <6605 pathach > thee this day <3117 yowm > from the chains <0246 >aziqqiym > which <0834 >aher >  [ were ]  upon thine hand <3027 yad > .  If <0518 >im > it seem <5869 <ayin > good <2896 towb > unto thee to come <0935 bow> > with me into Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  come <0935 bow> > ;  and I will look <7760 suwm > well unto thee : but if <0518 >im > it seem <5869 <ayin > ill <7489 ra<a< > unto thee to come <0935 bow> > with me into Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  forbear <2308 chadal > : behold <7200 ra>ah > ,  all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets >  [ is ]  before <6440 paniym > thee : whither <0413 >el > it seemeth <5869 <ayin > good <2896 towb > and convenient <3477 yashar > for thee to go <3212 yalak > ,  thither <8033 sham > go <3212 yalak > .

 : 05 Now while he was not yet <5750 <owd > gone <7725 shuwb > back <7725 shuwb > ,   [ he said ]  ,  Go <7725 shuwb > back <7725 shuwb > also to Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > the son <1121 ben > of Ahikam <0296 >Achiyqam > the son <1121 ben > of Shaphan <8227 shaphan > ,  whom <0834 >aher > the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > hath made governor <6485 paqad > over the cities <5892 <iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  and dwell <3427 yashab > with him among <8432 tavek > the people <5971 <am > : or <0176 >ow > go <3212 yalak > wheresoever it seemeth <5869 <ayin > convenient <3477 yashar > unto thee to go <3212 yalak > .  So the captain <7227 rab > of the guard <2876 tabbach > gave <5414 nathan > him victuals <0737 >aruchah > and a reward <4864 mas>eth > ,  and let him go <7971 shalach > .

 : 06 Then went <0935 bow> > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > unto Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > the son <1121 ben > of Ahikam <0296 >Achiyqam > to Mizpah <4708 Mitspeh > ;  and dwelt <3427 yashab > with him among <8432 tavek > the people <5971 <am > that were left <7604 sha>ar > in the land <0776 >erets > .

 : 07 .  Now when all <3605 kol > the captains <8269 sar > of the forces <2428 chayil > which <0834 >aher >  [ were ]  in the fields <7704 sadeh > ,   [ even ]  they and their men <0582 >enowsh > ,  heard <8085 shama< > that the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > had made Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > the son <1121 ben > of Ahikam <0296 >Achiyqam > governor <6485 paqad > in the land <0776 >erets > ,  and had committed <6485 paqad > unto him men <0582 >enowsh > ,  and women <0802 >ishshah > ,  and children <2945 taph > ,  and of the poor <1803 dallah > of the land <0776 >erets > ,  of them that were not carried <1540 galah > away captive <1540 galah > to Babylon <0894 Babel > ;

 : 08 Then they came <0935 bow> > to Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > to Mizpah <4708 Mitspeh > ,  even Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l > the son <1121 ben > of Nethaniah <5418 N@thanyah > ,  and Johanan <3110 Yowchanan > and Jonathan <3129 Yownathan > the sons <1121 ben > of Kareah <7143 Qareach > ,  and Seraiah <8304 S@rayah > the son <1121 ben > of Tanhumeth <8576 Tanchumeth > ,  and the sons <1121 ben > of Ephai <5778 <Owphay > the Netophathite <5200 N@tophathiy > ,  and Jezaniah <3153 Y@zanyah > the son <1121 ben > of a Maachathite <4602 Ma<akathiy > ,  they and their men <0582 >enowsh > .

 : 09 And Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > the son <1121 ben > of Ahikam <0296 >Achiyqam > the son <1121 ben > of Shaphan <8227 shaphan > sware <7650 shaba< > unto them and to their men <0582 >enowsh > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Fear <3372 yare> > not to serve <5647 <abad > the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > : dwell <3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets > ,  and serve <5647 <abad > the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and it shall be well <3190 yatab > with you .

 : 10 As for me ,  behold <2005 hen > ,  I will dwell <3427 yashab > at Mizpah <4708 Mitspeh > to serve <5975 <amad > the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > ,  which <0834 >aher > will come <0935 bow> > unto us : but ye ,  gather <0622 >acaph > ye wine <3196 yayin > ,  and summer <7019 qayits > fruits ,  and oil <8081 shemen > ,  and put <7760 suwm >  [ them ]  in your vessels <3627 k@liy > ,  and dwell <3427 yashab > in your cities <5892 <iyr > that ye have taken <8610 taphas > .

 : 11 Likewise <1571 gam > when all <3605 kol > the Jews <3064 Y@huwdiy > that  [ were ]  in Moab <4124 Mow>ab > ,  and among the Ammonites <5984 <Ammowniy > ,  and in Edom <0123 >Edom > ,  and that  [ were ]  in all <3605 kol > the countries <0776 >erets > ,  heard <8085 shama< > that the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > had left <5414 nathan > a remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  and that he had set <6485 paqad > over <5921 <al > them Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > the son <1121 ben > of Ahikam <0296 >Achiyqam > the son <1121 ben > of Shaphan <8227 shaphan > ;

 : 12 Even all <3605 kol > the Jews <3064 Y@huwdiy > returned <7725 shuwb > out of all <3605 kol > places <4725 maqowm > whither they were driven <5080 nadach > ,  and came <0935 bow> > to the land <0776 >erets > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  to Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > ,  unto Mizpah <4708 Mitspeh > ,  and gathered <0622 >acaph > wine <3196 yayin > and summer <7019 qayits > fruits very <3966 m@<od > much <7335 razam > .

 : 13 Moreover Johanan <3110 Yowchanan > the son <1121 ben > of Kareah <7143 Qareach > ,  and all <3605 kol > the captains <8269 sar > of the forces <2428 chayil > that  [ were ]  in the fields <7704 sadeh > ,  came <0935 bow> > to Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > to Mizpah <4708 Mitspeh > ,

 : 14 And said <0559 >amar > unto him ,  Dost thou certainly know <3045 yada< > that Baalis <1185 Ba<alic > the king <4428 melek > of the Ammonites <5984 <Ammowniy > hath sent <7971 shalach > Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l > the son <1121 ben > of Nethaniah <5418 N@thanyah > to slay thee ?  But Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > the son <1121 ben > of Ahikam <0296 >Achiyqam > believed <0539 >aman > them not .

 : 15 Then Johanan <3110 Yowchanan > the son <1121 ben > of Kareah <7143 Qareach > spake <0559 >amar > to Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > in Mizpah <4709 Mitspah > secretly <5643 cether > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Let me go <3212 yalak > ,  I pray thee ,  and I will slay <5221 nakah > Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l > the son <1121 ben > of Nethaniah <5418 N@thanyah > ,  and no <3808 lo> > man <0376 >iysh > shall know <3045 yada< >  [ it ]  : wherefore <4100 mah > should he slay <5221 nakah > thee ,  that all <3605 kol > the Jews <3064 Y@huwdiy > which are gathered <6908 qabats > unto thee should be scattered <6327 puwts > ,  and the remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > in Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > perish <6> ?

 : 16 But Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > the son <1121 ben > of Ahikam <0296 >Achiyqam > said <0559 >amar > unto Johanan <3110 Yowchanan > the son <1121 ben > of Kareah <7143 Qareach > ,  Thou shalt not do <6213 <asah > this <2088 zeh > thing <1697 dabar > : for thou speakest <1696 dabar > falsely <8267 sheqer > of Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l > .

 : Jeremiah 41

 : 01 .  Now it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the seventh <7637 sh@biy<iy > month <2320 chodesh > ,   [ that ]  Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l > the son <1121 ben > of Nethaniah <5418 N@thanyah > the son <1121 ben > of Elishama <0476 >Eliyshama< > ,  of the seed <2233 zera< > royal <4410 m@luwkah > ,  and the princes <7227 rab > of the king <4428 melek > ,  even ten <6235 <eser > men <0582 >enowsh > with him ,  came <0935 bow> > unto Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > the son <1121 ben > of Ahikam <0296 >Achiyqam > to Mizpah <4709 Mitspah > ;  and there <8033 sham > they did <6213 <asah > eat <0398 >akal > bread <3899 lechem > together <3162 yachad > in Mizpah <4709 Mitspah > .

 : 02 Then arose <6965 quwm > Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l > the son <1121 ben > of Nethaniah <5418 N@thanyah > ,  and the ten <6235 <eser > men <0582 >enowsh > that were with him ,  and smote <5221 nakah > Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > the son <1121 ben > of Ahikam <0296 >Achiyqam > the son <1121 ben > of Shaphan <8227 shaphan > with the sword <2719 chereb > ,  and slew <4191 muwth > him ,  whom <0834 >aher > the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > had made governor <6485 paqad > over the land <0776 >erets > .

 : 03 Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l > also slew <5221 nakah > all <3605 kol > the Jews <3064 Y@huwdiy > that were with him ,   [ even ]  with Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > ,  at Mizpah <4709 Mitspah > ,  and the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > that were found <4672 matsa> > there <8033 sham > ,   [ and ]  the men <0582 >enowsh > of war <4421 milchamah > .

 : 04 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass the second <8145 sheniy > day <3117 yowm > after he had slain <4191 muwth > Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > ,  and no <3808 lo> > man <0376 >iysh > knew <3045 yada< >  [ it ]  ,

 : 05 That there came <0935 bow> > certain <0582 >enowsh > from Shechem <7927 Sh@kem > ,  from Shiloh <7887 Shiyloh > ,  and from Samaria <8111 Shom@rown > ,   [ even ]  fourscore <8084 sh@moniym > men <0376 >iysh > ,  having their beards <2206 zaqan > shaven <1548 galach > ,  and their clothes <0899 beged > rent <7167 qara< > ,  and having cut <1413 gadad > themselves ,  with offerings <4503 minchah > and incense <3828 l@bownah > in their hand <3027 yad > ,  to bring <0935 bow> >  [ them ]  to the house <1004 bayith > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 06 And Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l > the son <1121 ben > of Nethaniah <5418N@thanyah > went <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > from Mizpah <4709 Mitspah > to meet <7125 qir>ah > them ,  weeping <1058 bakah > all along <1980 halak > as he went <1980 halak > : and it came <1961 hayah > to pass ,  as he met <6298 pagash > them ,  he said <0559 >amar > unto them ,  Come <0935 bow> > to Gedaliah <1436 G@dalyah > the son <1121 ben > of Ahikam <0296 >Achiyqam > .

 : 07 And it was  [ so ]  ,  when they came <0935 bow> > into <0413 >el > the midst<8432 tavek > of the city <5892 <iyr > ,  that Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l > the son <1121 ben > of Nethaniah <5418 N@thanyah > slew <7819 shachat > them ,   [ and cast them ]  into <0413 >el > the midst <8432 tavek > of the pit <0953 bowr > ,  he ,  and the men <0582 >enowsh > that  [ were ]  with him .

 : 08 But ten <6235 <eser > men <0582 >enowsh > were found <4672 matsa> > among them that said <0559 >amar > unto Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l > ,  Slay <4191 muwth > us not : for we have <3426 yesh > treasures <4301 matmown > in the field <7704 sadeh > ,  of wheat <2406 chittah > ,  and of barley <8184 s@<orah > ,  and of oil <8081 shemen > ,  and of honey <1706 d@bash > .  So he forbare <2308 chadal > ,  and slew <4191 muwth > them not among <8432 tavek > their brethren <0251 >ach > .

 : 15 But Ishmael <3458 Yishma<e>l > the son <1121 ben > of Nethaniah <5418 N@thanyah > escaped <4422 malat > from Johanan <3110 Yowchanan > with eight <8083 sh@moneh > men <0582 >enowsh > ,  and went <3212 yalak > to the Ammonites <5984 <Ammowniy > .

 : 01 .  Then all <3605 kol > the captains <8269 sar > of the forces <2428 chayil > ,  and Johanan <3110 Yowchanan > the son <1121 ben > of Kareah <7143 Qareach > ,  and Jezaniah <3153 Y@zanyah > the son <1121 ben > of Hoshaiah <1955 Howsha<yah > ,  and all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > from the least <6996 qatan > even unto the greatest <1419 gadowl > ,  came <5066 nagash > near <5066 nagash > ,

 : 04 Then Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > said <0559 >amar > unto them ,  I have heard <8085 shama< >  [ you ]  ;  behold <2005 hen > ,  I will pray <6419 palal > unto the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430 >elohiym > according to your words <1697 dabar > ;  and it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass ,   [ that ]  whatsoever <3605 kol > thing <1697 dabar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall answer <6030 <anah > you ,  I will declare <5046 nagad >  [ it ]  unto you ;  I will keep <4513 mana< > nothing back <4513 mana< > from you .

 : 05 Then they said <0559 >amar > to Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > be a true <0571 >emeth > and faithful <0539 >aman > witness <5707 <ed > between <0996 beyn > us ,  if we do <6213 <asah > not even <3651 ken > according to all <3605 kol > things <1697 dabar > for the which <0834 >aher > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > thy God <0430 >elohiym > shall send <7971 shalach > thee to us .

 : 06 Whether <0518 >im >  [ it be ]  good <2896 towb > ,  or whether <0518 >im >  [ it be ]  evil <7451 ra< > ,  we will obey <8085 shama< > the voice <6963 qowl > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God <0430 >elohiym > ,  to whom we send <7971 shalach > thee ;  that it may be well <2896 towb > with us ,  when <3588 kiy > we obey <8085 shama< > the voice <6963 qowl > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God <0430 >elohiym > .

 : 07 .  And it came <1961 hayah > to pass after <7093 qets > ten <6235 <eser > days <3117 yowm > ,  that the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > unto Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > .

 : 09 And said <0559 >amar > unto them ,  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  unto whom ye sent <7971 shalach > me to present <5307 naphal > your supplication <8467 t@chinnah > before <6440 paniym > him ;

 : 10 If <0518 >im > ye will still abide <3427 yashab > in this <2063 zo>th > land <0776 >erets > ,  then will I build <1129 banah > you ,  and not pull <2040 harac >  [ you ]  down ,  and I will plant <5193 nata< > you ,  and not pluck <5428 nathash >  [ you ]  up : for I repent <5162 nacham > me of the evil <7451 ra< > that I have done <6213 <asah > unto you .

 : 11 Be not afraid <3372 yare> > of the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  of whom ye are afraid <3373 yare> > ;  be not afraid <3372 yare> > of him ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > : for I  [ am ]  with you to save <3467 yasha< > you ,  and to deliver <5337 natsal > you from his hand <3027 yad > .

 : 13 But if <0518 >im > ye say <0559 >amar > ,  We will not dwell <3427 yashab > in this <2063 zo>th > land <0776 >erets > ,  neither <1115 biltiy > obey <8085 shama< > the voice <6963 qowl > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430 >elohiym > ,

 : 14 Saying <0559 >amar > ,  No <3808 lo> > ;  but we will go <0935 bow> > into the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ,  where <0834 >aher > we shall see <7200 ra>ah > no <3808 lo> > war <4421 milchamah > ,  nor <3808 lo> > hear <8085 shama< > the sound <6963 qowl > of the trumpet <7782 showphar > ,  nor <3808 lo> > have hunger <7456 ra<eb > of bread <3899 lechem > ;  and there <8033 sham > will we dwell <3427 yashab > :

 : 15 And now <6258 <attah > therefore <3651 ken > hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  ye remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ;  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  If <0518 >im > ye wholly <7760 suwm > set <7760 suwm > your faces <6440 paniym > to enter <0935 bow> > into Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ,  and go <0935 bow> > to sojourn <1481 guwr > there <8033 sham > ;

 : 16 Then it shall come <1961 hayah > to pass ,   [ that ]  the sword <2719 chereb > ,  which <0834 >aher > ye feared <3373 yare> > ,  shall overtake <5381 nasag > you there <8033 sham > in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ,  and the famine <7458 ra<ab > ,  whereof <0834 >aher > ye were afraid <1672 da>ag > ,  shall follow <1692 dabaq > close <1692 dabaq > after <0310 >achar > you there <8033 sham > in Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ;  and there <8033 sham > ye shall die <4191 muwth > .

 : 17 So shall it be with all <3605 kol > the men <0582 >enowsh > that set <7760 suwm > their faces <6440 paniym > to go <0935 bow> > into <0935 bow> > Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > to sojourn <1481 guwr > there <8033 sham > ;  they shall die <4191 muwth > by the sword <2719 chereb > ,  by the famine <7458 ra<ab > ,  and by the pestilence <1698 deber > : and none <3808 lo> > of them shall remain <8300 sariyd > or escape <6412 paliyt > from the evil <7451 ra< > that I will bring <0935 bow> > upon them .

 : 18 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  As mine anger <0639 >aph > and my fury <2534 chemah > hath been poured <5413 nathak > forth upon the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ;  so <3651 ken > shall my fury <2534 chemah > be poured <5413 nathak > forth upon you ,  when ye shall enter <0935 bow> > into <0935 bow> > Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > : and ye shall be an execration <0423 >alah > ,  and an astonishment <8047 shammah > ,  and a curse <7045 q@lalah > ,  and a reproach <2781 cherpah > ;  and ye shall see <7200 ra>ah > this <2088 zeh > place <4725 maqowm > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > .

 : 19 The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath said <1696 dabar > concerning <5921 <al > you ,  O ye remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ;  Go <0935 bow> > ye not into Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > : know <3045 yada< > certainly that I have admonished <5749 <uwd > you this day <3117 yowm > .

 : 20 For ye dissembled <8582 ta<ah > in your hearts <5315 nephesh > ,  when <3588 kiy > ye sent <7971 shalach > me unto the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430 >elohiym > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Pray <6419 palal > for us unto the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God <0430 >elohiym > ;  and according unto all <3605 kol > that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God <0430 >elohiym > shall say <0559 >amar > ,  so <3651 ken > declare <5046 nagad > unto us ,  and we will do <6213 <asah >  [ it ]  .

 : 21 And  [ now ]  I have this day <3117 yowm > declared <5046 nagad >  [ it ]  to you ;  but ye have not obeyed <8085 shama< > the voice <6963 qowl > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > your God <0430 >elohiym > ,  nor any <3605 kol >  [ thing ]  for the which <0834 >aher > he hath sent <7971 shalach > me unto you .

 : 22 Now <6258 <attah > therefore know <3045 yada< > certainly that ye shall die <4191 muwth > by the sword <2719 chereb > ,  by the famine <7458 ra<ab > ,  and by the pestilence <1698 deber > ,  in the place <4725 maqowm > whither ye desire <2654 chaphets > to go <0935 bow> >  [ and ]  to sojourn <1481 guwr > .

 : Jeremiah 43

 : 01 .  And it came <1961 hayah > to pass ,   [ that ]  when Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > had made an end <3615 kalah > of speaking <1696 dabar > unto all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > all <3605 kol > the words <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > their God <0430 >elohiym > ,  for which <0834 >aher > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > their God <0430 >elohiym > had sent <7971 shalach > him to them ,   [ even <0853 >eth > ]  all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el - leh > words <1697 dabar > ,

 : 04 So Johanan <3110 Yowchanan > the son <1121 ben > of Kareah <7143 Qareach > ,  and all <3605 kol > the captains <8269 sar > of the forces <2428 chayil > ,  and all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > ,  obeyed <8085 shama< > not the voice <6963 qowl > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  to dwell <3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > .

 : 05 But Johanan <3110 Yowchanan > the son <1121 ben > of Kareah <7143 Qareach > ,  and all <3605 kol > the captains <8269 sar > of the forces <2428 chayil > ,  took <3947 laqach > all <3605 kol > the remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  that were returned <7725 shuwb > from all <3605 kol > nations <1471 gowy > ,  whither they had been driven <5080 nadach > ,  to dwell <1481 guwr > in the land <0776 >erets > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ;

 : 12 And I will kindle <3341 yatsath > a fire <0784 >esh > in the houses <1004 bayith > of the gods <0430 >elohiym > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ;  and he shall burn <8313 saraph > them ,  and carry <7617 shabah > them away captives <7617 shabah > : and he shall array <5844 <atah > himself with the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ,  as a shepherd <7462 ra<ah > putteth <5844 <atah > on his garment <0899 beged > ;  and he shall go <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > from thence <8033 sham > in peace <7965 shalowm > .

 : Jeremiah 44

 : 01 .  The word <1697 dabar > that came <1961 hayah > to Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > concerning <0413 >el > all <3605 kol > the Jews <3064 Y@huwdiy > which dwell <3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ,  which dwell <3427 yashab > at Migdol <4024 Migdowl > ,  and at Tahpanhes <8471 Tachpanchec > ,  and at Noph <5297 Noph > ,  and in the country <0776 >erets > of Pathros <6624 Pathrowc > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 02 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  Ye have seen <7200 ra>ah > all <3605 kol > the evil <7451 ra< > that I have brought <0935 bow> > upon Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  and upon all <3605 kol > the cities <5892 <iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ;  and ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  this <2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm > they  [ are ]  a desolation <2723 chorbah > ,  and no <0369 >ayin > man dwelleth <3427 yashab > therein ,

 : 03 Because <6440 paniym > of their wickedness <7451 ra< > which <0834 >aher > they have committed <6213 <asah > to provoke me to anger <3707 ka<ac > ,  in that they went <3212 yalak > to burn <6999 qatar > incense <6999 qatar > ,   [ and ]  to serve <5647 <abad > other <0312 >acher > gods <0430 >elohiym > ,  whom <0834 >aher > they knew <3045 yada< > not ,   [ neither ]  they ,  ye ,  nor your fathers <1> .

 : 04 Howbeit I sent <7971 shalach > unto you all <3605 kol > my servants <5650 <ebed > the prophets <5030 nabiy> > ,  rising <7925 shakam > early <7925 shakam > and sending <7971 shalach >  [ them ]  ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  Oh <4994 na> > ,  do <6213 <asah > not this <2088 zeh > abominable <8441 tow<ebah > thing <1697 dabar > that I hate <8130 sane> > .

 : 05 But they hearkened <8085 shama< > not ,  nor <3808 lo> > inclined <5186 natah > their ear <0241 >ozen > to turn <7725 shuwb > from their wickedness <7451 ra< > ,  to burn <6999 qatar > no <1115 biltiy > incense <6999 qatar > unto other <0312 >acher > gods <0430 >elohiym > .

 : 06 Wherefore my fury <2534 chemah > and mine anger <0639 >aph > was poured <5413 nathak > forth ,  and was kindled <1197 ba<ar > in the cities <5892 <iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > and in the streets <2351 chuwts > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ;  and they are wasted <2723 chorbah >  [ and ]  desolate <8077 sh@mamah > ,  as at this <2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm > .

 : 07 Therefore now <6258 <attah > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  Wherefore <4100 mah > commit <6213 <asah > ye  [ this ]  great <1419 gadowl > evil <7451 ra< > against <0413 >el > your souls <5315 nephesh > ,  to cut <3772 karath > off from you man <0376 >iysh > and woman <0802 >ishshah > ,  child <5768 <owlel > and suckling <3243 yanaq > ,  out of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  to leave <3498 yathar > you none <1115 biltiy > to remain <7611 sh@>eriyth > ;

 : 08 In that ye provoke me unto wrath <3707 ka<ac > with the works <4639 ma<aseh > of your hands <3027 yad > ,  burning <6999 qatar > incense <6999 qatar > unto other <0312 >acher > gods <0430 >elohiym > in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ,  whither ye be gone <0935 bow> > to dwell <1481 guwr > ,  that ye might cut <3772 karath > yourselves off ,  and that ye might be a curse <7045 q@lalah > and a reproach <2781 cherpah > among all <3605 kol > the nations <1471 gowy > of the earth <0776 >erets > ?

 : 09 Have ye forgotten <7911 shakach > the wickedness <7451 ra< > of your fathers <1> ,  and the wickedness <7451 ra< > of the kings <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  and the wickedness <7451 ra< > of their wives <0802 >ishshah > ,  and your own wickedness <7451 ra< > ,  and the wickedness <7451 ra< > of your wives <0802 >ishshah > ,  which <0834 >aher > they have committed <6213 <asah > in the land <0776 >erets > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  and in the streets <2351 chuwts > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ?

 : 10 They are not humbled <1792 daka> >  [ even ]  unto this <2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm > ,  neither <3808 lo> > have they feared <3372 yare> > ,  nor <3808 lo> > walked <1980 halak > in my law <8451 towrah > ,  nor in my statutes <2708 chuqqah > ,  that I set <5414 nathan > before <6440 paniym > you and before <6440 paniym > your fathers <1> .

 : 11 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ;  Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will set <7760 suwm > my face <6440 paniym > against you for evil <7451 ra< > ,  and to cut <3772 karath > off all <3605 kol > Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > .

 : 12 And I will take <3947 laqach > the remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  that have set <7760 suwm > their faces <6440 paniym > to go <0935 bow> > into the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > to sojourn <1481 guwr > there <8033 sham > ,  and they shall all <3605 kol > be consumed <8552 tamam > ,   [ and ]  fall <5307 naphal > in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ;  they shall  [ even ]  be consumed <8552 tamam > by the sword <2719 chereb >  [ and ]  by the famine <7458 ra<ab > : they shall die <4191 muwth > ,  from the least <6996 qatan > even unto the greatest <1419 gadowl > ,  by the sword <2719 chereb > and by the famine <7458 ra<ab > : and they shall be an execration <0423 >alah > ,   [ and ]  an astonishment <8047 shammah > ,  and a curse <7045 q@lalah > ,  and a reproach <2781 cherpah > .

 : 13 For I will punish <6485 paqad > them that dwell <3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ,  as I have punished <6485 paqad > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  by the sword <2719 chereb > ,  by the famine <7458 ra<ab > ,  and by the pestilence <1698 deber > :

 : 14 So that none <3808 lo> > of the remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  which are gone <0935 bow> > into the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > to sojourn <1481 guwr > there <8033 sham > ,  shall escape <6412 paliyt > or remain <8300 sariyd > ,  that they should return <7725 shuwb > into the land <0776 >erets > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  to the which <0834 >aher > they have <5375 nasa> > a desire to return <7725 shuwb > to dwell <3427 yashab > there <8033 sham > : for none <3808 lo> > shall return <7725 shuwb > but such as shall escape <6412 paliyt > .

 : 15 .  Then all <3605 kol > the men <0582 >enowsh > which knew <3045 yada< > that their wives <0802 >ishshah > had burned <6999 qatar > incense <6999 qatar > unto other <0312 >acher > gods <0430 >elohiym > ,  and all <3605 kol > the women <0802 >ishshah > that stood <5975 <amad > by ,  a great <1419 gadowl > multitude <6951 qahal > ,  even all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > that dwelt <3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ,  in Pathros <6624 Pathrowc > ,  answered <6030 <anah > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 16  [ As for ]  the word <1697 dabar > that thou hast spoken <1696 dabar > unto us in the name <8034 shem > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  we will not hearken <8085 shama< > unto thee .

 : 17 But we will certainly do <6213 <asah > whatsoever thing <1697 dabar > goeth <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of our own mouth <6310 peh > ,  to burn <6999 qatar > incense <6999 qatar > unto the queen <4446 m@leketh > of heaven <8064 shamayim > ,  and to pour <5258 nacak > out drink <5262 necek > offerings unto her ,  as we have done <6213 <asah > ,  we ,  and our fathers <1> ,  our kings <4428 melek > ,  and our princes <8269 sar > ,  in the cities <5892 <iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  and in the streets <2351 chuwts > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > : for  [ then ]  had <1961 hayah > we plenty <7646 saba< > of victuals <3899 lechem > ,  and were well <2896 towb > ,  and saw <7200 ra>ah > no <3808 lo> > evil <7451 ra< > .

 : 18 But since we left <2308 chadal > off to burn <6999 qatar > incense <6999 qatar > to the queen <4446 m@leketh > of heaven <8064 shamayim > ,  and to pour <5258 nacak > out drink <5262 necek > offerings unto her ,  we have wanted <2637 chacer > all <3605 kol >  [ things ]  ,  and have been consumed <8552 tamam > by the sword <2719 chereb > and by the famine <7458 ra<ab > .

 : 19 And when <3588 kiy > we burned <6999 qatar > incense <6999 qatar > to the queen <4446 m@leketh > of heaven <8064 shamayim > ,  and poured <5258 nacak > out drink <5262 necek > offerings unto her ,  did we make <6213 <asah > her cakes <3561 kavvan > to worship <6087 <atsab > her ,  and pour <5258 nacak > out drink <5262 necek > offerings unto her ,  without <1107 bil<adey > our men <0582 >enowsh > ?

 : 20 .  Then Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > said <0559 >amar > unto all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > ,  to the men <1397 geber > ,  and to the women <0802 >ishshah > ,  and to all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > which had given him  [ that ]  answer <6030 <anah > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,

 : 21 The incense <7002 qitter > that ye burned <6999 qatar > in the cities <5892 <iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  and in the streets <2351 chuwts > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  ye ,  and your fathers <1> ,  your kings <4428 melek > ,  and your princes <8269 sar > ,  and the people <5971 <am > of the land <0776 >erets > ,  did not the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > remember <2142 zakar > them ,  and came <5927 <alah > it  [ not ]  into <5921 <al > his mind <3820 leb > ?

 : 22 So that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > could <3201 yakol > no <3808 lo> > longer <5750 <owd > bear <5375 nasa> > ,  because <6440 paniym > of the evil <7455 roa< > of your doings <4611 ma<alal > ,   [ and ]  because <6440 paniym > of the abominations <8441 tow<ebah > which <0834 >aher > ye have committed <6213 <asah > ;  therefore is your land <0776 >erets > a desolation <2723 chorbah > ,  and an astonishment <8047 shammah > ,  and a curse <7045 q@lalah > ,  without <0369 >ayin > an inhabitant <3427 yashab > ,  as at this <2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm > .

 : 23 Because ye have burned <6999 qatar > incense <6999 qatar > ,  and because <0834 >aher > ye have sinned <2398 chata> > against the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  and have not obeyed <8085 shama< > the voice <6963 qowl > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  nor <3808 lo> > walked <1980 halak > in his law <8451 towrah > ,  nor in his statutes <2708 chuqqah > ,  nor in his testimonies <5715> ;  therefore this <2063 zo>th > evil <7451 ra< > is happened <7122 qara> > unto you ,  as at this <2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm > .

 : 24 Moreover Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > said <0559 >amar > unto all <3605 kol > the people <5971 <am > ,  and to all <3605 kol > the women <0802 >ishshah > ,  Hear <8085 shama< > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  all <3605 kol > Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > that  [ are ]  in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > :

 : 25 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  the God <0430 >elohiym > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ;  Ye and your wives <0802 >ishshah > have both spoken <1696 dabar > with your mouths <6310 peh > ,  and fulfilled <4390 male> > with your hand <3027 yad > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  We will surely perform <6213 <asah > our vows <5088 neder > that we have vowed <5087 nadar > ,  to burn <6999 qatar > incense <6999 qatar > to the queen <4446 m@leketh > of heaven <8064 shamayim > ,  and to pour <5258 nacak > out drink <5262 necek > offerings unto her : ye will surely accomplish <6965 quwm > your vows <5088 neder > ,  and surely perform <6213 <asah > your vows <5088 neder > .

 : 26 Therefore <3651 ken > hear <8085 shama< > ye the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  all <3605 kol > Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > that dwell <3427 yashab > in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ;  Behold <2005 hen > ,  I have sworn <7650 shaba< > by my great <1419 gadowl > name <8034 shem > ,  saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  that my name <8034 shem > shall no <0518 >im > more <5750 <owd > be named <7121 qara> > in the mouth <6310 peh > of any <3605 kol > man <0376 >iysh > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > in all <3605 kol > the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > ,  saying <0559 >amar > ,  The Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > liveth <2416 chay > .

 : 27 Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will watch <8245 shaqad > over <5921 <al > them for evil <7451 ra< > ,  and not for good <2896 towb > : and all <3605 kol > the men <0376 >iysh > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > that  [ are ]  in the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > shall be consumed <8552 tamam > by the sword <2719 chereb > and by the famine <7458 ra<ab > ,  until <5704 <ad > there be an end <3615 kalah > of them .

 : 28 Yet a small <4962 math > number <4557 micpar > that escape <6412 paliyt > the sword <2719 chereb > shall return <7725 shuwb > out of the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > into the land <0776 >erets > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  and all <3605 kol > the remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  that are gone <0935 bow> > into the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > to sojourn <1481 guwr > there <8033 sham > ,  shall know <3045 yada< > whose <4310 miy > words <1697 dabar > shall stand <6965 quwm > ,  mine ,  or theirs <1992 hem > .

 : 13 The word <1697 dabar > that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > spake <1696 dabar > to Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > ,  how Nebuchadrezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > should come <0935 bow> >  [ and ]  smite <5221 nakah > the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > .

 : 15 Why <4069 madduwa< > are thy valiant <47>  [ men ]  swept <5502 cachaph > away ?  they stood <5975 <amad > not ,  because <3588 kiy > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > did drive <1920 Hadaph > them .

 : 16 He made many <7235 rabah > to fall <3782 kashal > ,  yea ,  one <0376 >iysh > fell <5307 naphal > upon another <7453 rea< > : and they said <0559 >amar > ,  Arise <6965 quwm > ,  and let us go <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > to our own people <5971 <am > ,  and to the land <0776 >erets > of our nativity <4138 mowledeth > ,  from the oppressing <3238 yanah > sword <2719 chereb > .

 : 22 The voice <6963 qowl > thereof shall go <3212 yalak > like a serpent <5175 nachash > ;  for they shall march <3212 yalak > with an army <2428 chayil > ,  and come <0935 bow> > against her with axes <7134 qardom > ,  as hewers <2404 chatab > of wood <6086 <ets > .

 : 24 The daughter <1323 bath > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim > shall be confounded <3001 yabesh > ;  she shall be delivered <5414 nathan > into the hand <3027 yad > of the people <5971 <am > of the north <6828 tsaphown > .

 : 27 But fear <3372 yare> > not thou ,  O my servant <5650 <ebed > Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > ,  and be not dismayed <2865 chathath > ,  O Israel <3478 Yisra>el > : for ,  behold <2005 hen > ,  I will save <3467 yasha< > thee from afar <7350 rachowq > off ,  and thy seed <2233 zera< > from the land <0776 >erets > of their captivity <7633 shibyah > ;  and Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > shall return <7725 shuwb > ,  and be in rest <8252 shaqat > and at ease <7599 sha>an > ,  and none <0369 >ayin > shall make  [ him ]  afraid <2729 charad > .

 : 03 At the noise <6963 qowl > of the stamping <8161 sha<atah > of the hoofs <6541 parcah > of his strong <47>  [ horses ]  ,  at the rushing <7494 ra<ash > of his chariots <7393 rekeb > ,   [ and at ]  the rumbling <1995 hamown > of his wheels <1534 galgal > ,  the fathers <1> shall not look <6437 panah > back <6437 panah > to  [ their ]  children <1121 ben > for feebleness <7510 riphyown > of hands <3027 yad > ;

 : 05 Baldness <7144 qorchah > is come <0935 bow> > upon Gaza <5804 <Azzah > ;  Ashkelon <0831 >Ashq@lown > is cut <1820 damah > off  [ with ]  the remnant <7611 sh@>eriyth > of their valley <6010 <emeq > : how long <5704 <ad > wilt thou cut <1413 gadad > thyself ?

 : 18 Thou daughter <1323 bath > that dost inhabit <3427 yashab > Dibon <1769 Diybown > ,  come <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > from  [ thy ]  glory <3519 kabowd > ,  and sit <3427 yashab > in thirst <6772 tsama> > ;  for the spoiler <7703 shadad > of Moab <4124 Mow>ab > shall come <5927 <alah > upon thee ,   [ and ]  he shall destroy <7843 shachath > thy strong <4013 mibtsar > holds <4013 mibtsar > .

 : 19 O inhabitant <3427 yashab > of Aroer <6177 <Arow<er > ,  stand <5975 <amad > by the way <1870 derek > ,  and espy <6822 tsaphah > ;  ask <7592 sha>al > him that fleeth <5127 nuwc > ,  and her that escapeth <4422 malat > ,   [ and ]  say <0559 >amar > ,  What <4100 mah > is done ?

 : 20 Moab <4124 Mow>ab > is confounded <3001 yabesh > ;  for it is broken <2865 chathath > down : howl <3213 yalal > and cry <2199 za<aq > ;  tell <5046 nagad > ye it in Arnon <0769 >Arnown > ,  that Moab <4124 Mow>ab > is spoiled <7703 shadad > ,

 : 21 And judgment <4941 mishpat > is come <0935 bow> > upon the plain <4334 miyshowr > country <0776 >erets > ;  upon Holon <2473 Cholown > ,  and upon Jahazah <3096 Yahats > ,  and upon Mephaath <4158 Mowpha<ath > ,

 : 22 And upon Dibon <1769 Diybown > ,  and upon Nebo <5015 N@bow > ,  and upon Bethdiblathaim <1015 Beyth Diblathayim > ,

 : 23 And upon Kiriathaim <7156 Qiryathayim > ,  and upon Bethgamul <1014 Beyth Gamuwl > ,  and upon Bethmeon <1010 Beyth Ba<al M@<own > ,

 : 24 And upon Kerioth <7152> ,  and upon Bozrah <1224 Botsrah > ,  and upon all <3605 kol > the cities <5892 <iyr > of the land <0776 >erets > of Moab <4124 Mow>ab > ,  far <7350 rachowq > or near <7138 qarowb > .

 : 25 The horn <7161 qeren > of Moab <4124 Mow>ab > is cut <1438 gada< > off ,  and his arm <2220 z@rowa< > is broken <7665 shabar > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 26 Make ye him drunken <7937 shakar > : for he magnified <1431 gadal >  [ himself ]  against <5921 <al > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > : Moab <4124 Mow>ab > also shall wallow <5606 caphaq > in his vomit <6892 qe> > ,  and he also <1571 gam > shall be in derision <7814 s@chowq > .

 : 27 For was not Israel <3478 Yisra>el > a derision <7814 s@chowq > unto thee ?  was he found <4672 matsa> > among thieves <1590 gannab > ?  for since <1767 day > thou spakest <1697 dabar > of him ,  thou skippedst <5110 nuwd > for joy .

 : 28 O ye that dwell <3427 yashab > in Moab <4124 Mow>ab > ,  leave <5800 <azab > the cities <5892 <iyr > ,  and dwell <7931 shakan > in the rock <5553 cela< > ,  and be like the dove <3123 yownah >  [ that ]  maketh her nest <7077 qanan > in the sides <5676 <eber > of the hole s <6354 pachath > mouth <6310 peh > .

 : 29 We have heard <8085 shama< > the pride <1347 ga>own > of Moab <4124 Mow>ab > ,   ( he is exceeding <3966 m@<od > proud <1343 ge>eh > )  his loftiness <1363 gobahh > ,  and his arrogancy <1347 ga>own > ,  and his pride <1347 ga>own > ,  and the haughtiness <7312 ruwm > of his heart <3820 leb > .

 : 30 I know <3045 yada< > his wrath <5678 <ebrah > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  but  [ it shall ]  not  [ be ]  so <3651 ken > ;  his lies <0907 bad > shall not so <3651 ken > effect <6213 <asah >  [ it ]  .

 : 31 Therefore will I howl <3213 yalal > for Moab <4124 Mow>ab > ,  and I will cry <2199 za<aq > out for all <3605 kol > Moab <4124 Mow>ab > ;   [ mine heart ]  shall mourn <1897 hagah > for the men <0582 >enowsh > of Kirheres <7025 Qiyr Cheres > .

 : 32 O vine <1612 gephen > of Sibmah <7643 S@bam > ,  I will weep <1058 bakah > for thee with the weeping <1065 B@kiy > of Jazer <3270 Ya<azeyr > : thy plants <5189 n@tiyshah > are gone <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > the sea <3220 yam > ,  they reach <5060 naga< >  [ even ]  to the sea <3220 yam > of Jazer <3270 Ya<azeyr > : the spoiler <7703 shadad > is fallen <5307 naphal > upon thy summer <7019 qayits > fruits and upon thy vintage <1210 batsiyr > .

 : 33 And joy <8057 simchah > and gladness <8057 simchah > is taken <0622 >acaph > from the plentiful <3759 karmel > field ,  and from the land <0776 >erets > of Moab <4124 Mow>ab > ;  and I have caused wine <3196 yayin > to fail <7673 shabath > from the winepresses <3342 yeqeb > : none <3808 lo> > shall tread <1869 darak > with shouting <1959 heydad > ;   [ their ]  shouting <1959 heydad >  [ shall be ]  no <3808 lo> > shouting <1959 heydad > .

 : 34 From the cry <2201 za<aq > of Heshbon <2809 Cheshbown >  [ even ]  unto Elealeh <0500 >El<ale> > ,   [ and even ]  unto Jahaz <3096 Yahats > ,  have they uttered <5414 nathan > their voice <6963 qowl > ,  from Zoar <6820 Tso<ar >  [ even ]  unto Horonaim <2773 Choronayim > ,   [ as ]  an heifer <5697 <eglah > of three <7992 sh@liyshiy > years old <7992 sh@liyshiy > : for the waters <4325 mayim > also <1571 gam > of Nimrim <5249 Nimriym > shall be desolate <4923 m@shammah > .

 : 35 Moreover I will cause to cease <7673 shabath > in Moab <4124 Mow>ab > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  him that offereth <5927 <alah > in the high <1116 bamah > places ,  and him that burneth <6999 qatar > incense <6999 qatar > to his gods <0430 >elohiym > .

 : 36 Therefore mine heart <3820 leb > shall sound <1993 hamah > for Moab <4124 Mow>ab > like pipes <2485 chaliyl > ,  and mine heart <3820 leb > shall sound <1993 hamah > like pipes <2485 chaliyl > for the men <0582 >enowsh > of Kirheres <7025 Qiyr Cheres > : because the riches <3502 yithrah >  [ that ]  he hath gotten <6213 <asah > are perished <6> .

 : 37 For every <3605 kol > head <7218 ro>sh >  [ shall be ]  bald <7144 qorchah > ,  and every <3605 kol > beard <2206 zaqan > clipped <1639 gara< > : upon all <3605 kol > the hands <3027 yad >  [ shall be ]  cuttings <1417 g@duwd > ,  and upon the loins <4975 mothen > sackcloth <8242 saq > .

 : 38  [ There shall be ]  lamentation <4553 micepd > generally <3605 kol > upon all <3605 kol > the housetops <1406 gag > of Moab <4124 Mow>ab > ,  and in the streets <7339 r@chob > thereof : for I have broken <7665 shabar > Moab <4124 Mow>ab > like a vessel <3627 k@liy > wherein  [ is ]  no <0369 >ayin > pleasure <2656 chephets > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 39 They shall howl <3213 yalal > ,   [ saying ]  ,  How <0349 >eyk > is it broken <2865 chathath > down !  how <0349 >eyk > hath Moab <4124 Mow>ab > turned <6437 panah > the back <6203 <oreph > with shame <0954 buwsh > !  so shall Moab <4124 Mow>ab > be a derision <7814 s@chowq > and a dismaying <4288 m@chittah > to all <3605 kol > them about <5439 cabiyb > him .

 : 40 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  he shall fly <1675 da>ah > as an eagle <5404 nesher > ,  and shall spread <6566 paras > his wings <3671 kanaph > over <0413 >el > Moab <4124 Mow>ab > .

 : 41 Kerioth <7152> is taken <3920 lakad > ,  and the strong <4679 m@tsad > holds <4679 m@tsad > are surprised <8610 taphas > ,  and the mighty <1368 gibbowr > men s hearts <3820 leb > in Moab <4124 Mow>ab > at that day <3117 yowm > shall be as the heart <3820 leb > of a woman <0802 >ishshah > in her pangs <6887 tsarar > .

 : 42 And Moab <4124 Mow>ab > shall be destroyed <8045 shamad > from  [ being ]  a people <5971 <am > ,  because he hath magnified <1431 gadal >  [ himself ]  against <5921 <al > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 43 Fear <6343 pachad > ,  and the pit <6354 pachath > ,  and the snare <6341 pach > ,   [ shall be ]  upon thee ,  O inhabitant <3427 yashab > of Moab <4124 Mow>ab > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 44 He that fleeth <5211 niyc > from the fear <6343 pachad > shall fall <5307 naphal > into <0413 >el > the pit <6354 pachath > ;  and he that getteth <5927 <alah > up out of the pit <6354 pachath > shall be taken <3920 lakad > in the snare <6341 pach > : for I will bring <0935 bow> > upon it ,   [ even ]  upon Moab <4124 Mow>ab > ,  the year <8141 shaneh > of their visitation <6486 p@quddah > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 45 They that fled <5127 nuwc > stood <5975 <amad > under the shadow <6738 tsel > of Heshbon <2809 Cheshbown > because of the force <3581 koach > : but a fire <0784 >esh > shall come <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of Heshbon <2809 Cheshbown > ,  and a flame <3852 lehabah > from the midst of Sihon <5511 Ciychown > ,  and shall devour <0398 >akal > the corner <6285 pe>ah > of Moab <4124 Mow>ab > ,  and the crown <6936 qodqod > of the head <6936 qodqod > of the tumultuous ones <1121 ben > .

 : 46 Woe <0188 >owy > be unto thee ,  O Moab <4124 Mow>ab > !  the people <5971 <am > of Chemosh <3645 K@mowsh > perisheth <6> : for thy sons <1121 ben > are taken <3947 laqach > captives <7628 sh@biy > ,  and thy daughters <1121 ben > captives <7633 shibyah > .

 : 47 Yet will I bring <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > the captivity <7622 sh@buwth > of Moab <4124 Mow>ab > in the latter <0319 >achariyth > days <3117 yowm > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .  Thus <2008 hennah > far <2008 hennah >  [ is ]  the judgment <4941 mishpat > of Moab <4124 Mow>ab > .

 : 01 .  Concerning the Ammonites <5984 <Ammowniy > ,  thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  Hath Israel <3478 Yisra>el > no <0369 >ayin > sons <1121 ben > ?  hath he no <0369 >ayin > heir <3423 yarash > ?  why <4069 madduwa< >  [ then ]  doth their king <4428 melek > inherit <3423 yarash > Gad <1410 Gad > ,  and his people <5971 <am > dwell <3427 yashab > in his cities <5892 <iyr > ?

 : 02 Therefore <3651 ken > ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  the days <3117 yowm > come <0935 bow> > ,  saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  that I will cause an alarm <8643 t@ruw<ah > of war <4421 milchamah > to be heard <8085 shama< > in Rabbah <7237 Rabbah > of the Ammonites <5984 <Ammowniy > ;  and it shall be a desolate <8077 sh@mamah > heap <8510 tel > ,  and her daughters <1121 ben > shall be burned <3341 yatsath > with fire <0784 >esh > : then shall Israel <3478 Yisra>el > be heir <3423 yarash > unto them that were his heirs <3423 yarash > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 03 Howl <3213 yalal > ,  O Heshbon <2809 Cheshbown > ,  for Ai <5857 <Ay > is spoiled <7703 shadad > : cry <6817 tsa<aq > ,  ye daughters <1121 ben > of Rabbah <7237 Rabbah > ,  gird <2296 chagar > you with sackcloth <8242 saq > ;  lament <5594 caphad > ,  and run <7751 shuwt > to and fro <7751 shuwt > by the hedges <1448 g@derah > ;  for their king <4428 melek > shall go <3212 yalak > into captivity <1473 gowlah > ,   [ and ]  his priests <3548 kohen > and his princes <8269 sar > together <3162 yachad > .

 : 04 Wherefore <4100 mah > gloriest <1984 halal > thou in the valleys <6010 <emeq > ,  thy flowing <2100 zuwb > valley <6010 <emeq > ,  O backsliding <7728 showbeb > daughter <1323 bath > ?  that trusted <0982 batach > in her treasures <0214 >owtsar > ,   [ saying ]  ,  Who <4310 miy > shall come <0935 bow> > unto me ?

 : 05 Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will bring <0935 bow> > a fear <6343 pachad > upon thee ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069 Y@hovih > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ,  from all <3605 kol > those that be about <5439 cabiyb > thee ;  and ye shall be driven <5080 nadach > out every man <0376 >iysh > right <6440 paniym > forth <6440 paniym > ;  and none <0369 >ayin > shall gather <6908 qabats > up him that wandereth <5074 nadad > .

 : 06 And afterward I will bring <7725 shuwb > again <7725 shuwb > the captivity <7622 sh@buwth > of the children <1121 ben > of Ammon <5983 <Ammown > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 07 .  Concerning Edom <0123 >Edom > ,  thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ;   [ Is ]  wisdom <2451 chokmah > no <0369 >ayin > more <5750 <owd > in Teman <8487 Teyman > ?  is counsel <6098 <etsah > perished <6> from the prudent <0995 biyn > ?  is their wisdom <2451 chokmah > vanished <5628 carach > ?

 : 08 Flee <5127 nuwc > ye ,  turn <6437 panah > back <6437 panah > ,  dwell <3427 yashab > deep <6009 <amaq > ,  O inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Dedan <1719 D@dan > ;  for I will bring <0935 bow> > the calamity <0343 >eyd > of Esau <6215 <Esav > upon him ,  the time <6256 <eth >  [ that ]  I will visit <6485 paqad > him .

 : 09 If <0518 >im > grapegatherers <1219 batsar > come <0935 bow> > to thee ,  would they not leave <7604 sha>ar >  [ some ]  gleaning <5955 <olelah > grapes ?  if <0518 >im > thieves <1590 gannab > by night <3915 layil > ,  they will destroy <7843 shachath > till <5704 <ad > they have enough <1767 day > .

 : 10 But I have made Esau <6215 <Esav > bare <2834 chasaph > ,  I have uncovered <1540 galah > his secret <4565 mictar > places ,  and he shall not be able <3201 yakol > to hide <2247 chabah > himself : his seed <2233 zera< > is spoiled <7703 shadad > ,  and his brethren <0251 >ach > ,  and his neighbours <7934 shaken > ,  and he  [ is ]  not .

 : 11 Leave <5800 <azab > thy fatherless <3490 yathowm > children <1121 ben > ,  I will preserve <2421 chayah >  [ them ]  alive <2421 chayah > ;  and let thy widows <0490 >almanah > trust <0982 batach > in me .

 : 12 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  they whose <0834 >aher > judgment <4941 mishpat >  [ was ]  not to drink <8354 shathah > of the cup <3563 kowc > have assuredly <8354 shathah > drunken <7937 shakar > ;  and  [ art ]  thou he  [ that ]  shall altogether go unpunished <5352 naqah > ?  thou shalt not go <3212 yalak > unpunished <5352 naqah > ,  but thou shalt surely <3588 kiy > drink <8354 shathah >  [ of it ]  .

 : 13 For I have sworn <7650 shaba< > by myself ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  that Bozrah <1224 Botsrah > shall become <1961 hayah > a desolation <8047 shammah > ,  a reproach <2781 cherpah > ,  a waste <2721 choreb > ,  and a curse <7045 q@lalah > ;  and all <3605 kol > the cities <5892 <iyr > thereof shall be perpetual <5769 <owlam > wastes <2723 chorbah > .

 : 14 I have heard <8085 shama< > a rumour <8052 sh@muw<ah > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  and an ambassador <6735 tsiyr > is sent <7971 shalach > unto the heathen <1471 gowy > ,   [ saying ]  ,  Gather <6908 qabats > ye together ,  and come <0935 bow> > against <5921 <al > her ,  and rise <6965 quwm > up to the battle <4421 milchamah > .

 : 15 For ,  lo <2009 hinneh > ,  I will make <5414 nathan > thee small <6996 qatan > among the heathen <1471 gowy > ,   [ and ]  despised <0959 bazah > among men <0120 >adam > .

 : 16 Thy terribleness <8606 tiphletseth > hath deceived <5377 nasha> > thee ,   [ and ]  the pride <2087 zadown > of thine heart <3820 leb > ,  O thou that dwellest <7931 shakan > in the clefts <2288 chagav > of the rock <5553 cela< > ,  that holdest <8610 taphas > the height <4791 marowm > of the hill <1389 gib<ah > : though <3588 kiy > thou shouldest make thy nest <7064 qen > as high <1361 gabahh > as the eagle <5404 nesher > ,  I will bring <3381 yarad > thee down <3381 yarad > from thence <8033 sham > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 17 Also Edom <0123 >Edom > shall be a desolation <8047 shammah > : every <3605 kol > one that goeth <5674 <abar > by it shall be astonished <8074 shamem > ,  and shall hiss <8319 sharaq > at <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > the plagues <4347 makkah > thereof .

 : 18 As in the overthrow <4114 mahpekah > of Sodom <5467 C@dom > and Gomorrah <6017 <Amorah > and the neighbour <7934 shaken >  [ cities ]  thereof ,  saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  no <3808 lo> > man <0376 >iysh > shall abide <3427 yashab > there <8033 sham > ,  neither <3808 lo> > shall a son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > dwell <1481 guwr > in it .

 : 19 Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  he shall come <5927 <alah > up like a lion <0738 >ariy > from the swelling <1347 ga>own > of Jordan <3383 Yarden > against <0413 >el > the habitation <5116 naveh > of the strong <0386 >eythan > : but I will suddenly <7280 raga< > make him run <7323 ruwts > away from her : and who <4310 miy >  [ is ]  a chosen <0970 bachuwr >  [ man ,  that ]  I may appoint <6485 paqad > over <0413 >el > her ?  for who <4310 miy >  [ is ]  like <3644 k@mow > me ?  and who <4310 miy > will appoint <3259 ya<ad > me the time ?  and who <4310 miy >  [ is ]  that shepherd <7462 ra<ah > that will stand <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > me ?

 : 20 Therefore <3651 ken > hear <8085 shama< > the counsel <6098 <etsah > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  that he hath taken <3289 ya<ats > against <0413 >el > Edom <0123 >Edom > ;  and his purposes <4284 machashabah > ,  that he hath purposed <2803 chashab > against <0413 >el > the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Teman <8487 Teyman > : Surely the least <6810 tsa<iyr > of the flock <6629 tso>n > shall draw <5498 cachab > them out : surely he shall make their habitations <5116 naveh > desolate <8074 shamem > with them .

 : 21 The earth <0776 >erets > is moved <7493 ra<ash > at the noise <6963 qowl > of their fall <5307 naphal > ,  at the cry <6818 tsa<aqah > the noise <6963 qowl > thereof was heard <8085 shama< > in the Red <5488 cuwph > sea <3220 yam > .

 : 34 Their Redeemer <1350 ga>al >  [ is ]  strong <2389 chazaq > ;  the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >  [ is ]  his name <8034 shem > : he shall throughly plead <7378 riyb > their cause <7379 riyb > ,  that he may give rest <7280 raga< > to the land <0776 >erets > ,  and disquiet <7264 ragaz > the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Babylon <0894 Babel > .

 : 35 A sword <2719 chereb >  [ is ]  upon the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  and upon the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and upon her princes <8269 sar > ,  and upon her wise <2450 chakam >  [ men ]  .

 : 36 A sword <2719 chereb >  [ is ]  upon the liars <0907 bad > ;  and they shall dote <2973 ya>al > : a sword <2719 chereb >  [ is ]  upon her mighty <1368 gibbowr > men ;  and they shall be dismayed <2865 chathath > .

 : 37 A sword <2719 chereb >  [ is ]  upon their horses <5483 cuwc > ,  and upon their chariots <7393 rekeb > ,  and upon all <3605 kol > the mingled <6154 <ereb > people that  [ are ]  in the midst <8432 tavek > of her ;  and they shall become <1961 hayah > as women <0802 >ishshah > : a sword <2719 chereb >  [ is ]  upon her treasures <0214 >owtsar > ;  and they shall be robbed <0962 bazaz > .

 : 38 A drought <2721 choreb >  [ is ]  upon her waters <4325 mayim > ;  and they shall be dried <3001 yabesh > up : for it  [ is ]  the land <0776 >erets > of graven <6456 p@ciyl > images ,  and they are mad <1984 halal > upon  [ their ]  idols <0367 >eymah > .

 : 39 Therefore <3651 ken > the wild <6728 tsiyiy > beasts <6728 tsiyiy > of the desert <6728 tsiyiy > with the wild <0338 >iy > beasts <0338 >iy > of the islands <0339 >iy > shall dwell <3427 yashab >  [ there ]  ,  and the owls shall dwell <3427 yashab > therein : and it shall be no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > inhabited <3427 yashab > for ever <5331 netsach > ;  neither <3808 lo> > shall it be dwelt <7931 shakan > in from generation <1755 dowr > to generation <1755 dowr > .

 : 40 As God <0430 >elohiym > overthrew <4114 mahpekah > Sodom <5467 C@dom > and Gomorrah <6017 <Amorah > and the neighbour <7934 shaken >  [ cities ]  thereof ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;   [ so ]  shall no <3808 lo> > man <0376 >iysh > abide <3427 yashab > there <8033 sham > ,  neither <3808 lo> > shall any son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > dwell <1481 guwr > therein .

 : 41 Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  a people <5971 <am > shall come <0935 bow> > from the north <6828 tsaphown > ,  and a great <1419 gadowl > nation <1471 gowy > ,  and many <7227 rab > kings <4428 melek > shall be raised <5782 <uwr > up from the coasts <3411 y@rekah > of the earth <0776 >erets > .

 : 42 They shall hold <2388 chazaq > the bow <7198 qesheth > and the lance <3591 kiydown > : they  [ are ]  cruel <0394 >akzariy > ,  and will not shew mercy <7355 racham > : their voice <6963 qowl > shall roar <1993 hamah > like the sea <3220 yam > ,  and they shall ride <7392 rakab > upon horses <5483 cuwc > ,   [ every one ]  put in array <6186 <arak > ,  like a man <0376 >iysh > to the battle <4421 milchamah > ,  against <5921 <al > thee ,  O daughter <1323 bath > of Babylon <0894 Babel > .

 : 43 The king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > hath heard <8085 shama< > the report <8088 shema< > of them ,  and his hands <3027 yad > waxed feeble <7503 raphah > : anguish <6869 tsarah > took hold <2388 chazaq > of him ,   [ and ]  pangs <2427 chiyl > as of a woman in travail <3205 yalad > .

 : 44 Behold <2009 hinneh > ,  he shall come <5927 <alah > up like a lion <0738 >ariy > from the swelling <1347 ga>own > of Jordan <3383 Yarden > unto the habitation <5116 naveh > of the strong <0386 >eythan > : but I will make them suddenly <7280 raga< > run <7323 ruwts > away from her : and who <4310 miy >  [ is ]  a chosen <0970 bachuwr >  [ man ,  that ]  I may appoint <6485 paqad > over <0413 >el > her ?  for who <4310 miy >  [ is ]  like <3644 k@mow > me ?  and who <4310 miy > will appoint <3259 ya<ad > me the time ?  and who <4310 miy >  [ is ]  that shepherd <7462 ra<ah > that will stand <5975 <amad > before <6440 paniym > me ?

 : 45 Therefore <3651 ken > hear <8085 shama< > ye the counsel <6098 <etsah > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  that he hath taken <3289 ya<ats > against <0413 >el > Babylon <0894 Babel > ;  and his purposes <4284 machashabah > ,  that he hath purposed <2803 chashab > against <0413 >el > the land <0776 >erets > of the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > : Surely the least <6810 tsa<iyr > of the flock <6629 tso>n > shall draw <5498 cachab > them out : surely he shall make  [ their ]  habitation <5116 naveh > desolate <8074 shamem > with them .

 : 46 At the noise <6963 qowl > of the taking <8610 taphas > of Babylon <0894 Babel > the earth <0776 >erets > is moved <7493 ra<ash > ,  and the cry <2201 za<aq > is heard <8085 shama< > among the nations <1471 gowy > .

 : 01 .  Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ;  Behold <2005 hen > ,  I will raise <5782 <uwr > up against <5921 <al > Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and against <0413 >el > them that dwell <3427 yashab > in the midst <3820 leb > of them that rise <6965 quwm > up against me ,  a destroying <7843 shachath > wind <7307 ruwach > ;

 : 02 And will send <7971 shalach > unto Babylon <0894 Babel > fanners <2114 zuwr > ,  that shall fan <2219 zarah > her ,  and shall empty <1238 baqaq > her land <0776 >erets > : for in the day <3117 yowm > of trouble <7451 ra< > they shall be against <5921 <al > her round <5439 cabiyb > about .

 : 03 Against <0413 >el >  [ him that ]  bendeth <1869 darak > let the archer <1869 darak > bend <1869 darak > his bow <7198 qesheth > ,  and against <0413 >el >  [ him that ]  lifteth <5927 <alah > himself up in his brigandine <5630 ciyron > : and spare <2550 chamal > ye not her young <0970 bachuwr > men ;  destroy <2763 charam > ye utterly all <3605 kol > her host <6635 tsaba> > .

 : 04 Thus the slain <2491 chalal > shall fall <5307 naphal > in the land <0776 >erets > of the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > ,  and  [ they that are ]  thrust <1856 daqar > through <1856 daqar > in her streets <2351 chuwts > .

 : 06 Flee <5127 nuwc > out of the midst <8432 tavek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and deliver <4422 malat > every man <0376 >iysh > his soul <5315 nephesh > : be not cut <1826 damam > off in her iniquity <5771 <avon > ;  for this <1931 huw> >  [ is ]  the time <6256 <eth > of the LORD S <3068 Y@hovah > vengeance <5360 n@qamah > ;  he will render <7999 shalam > unto her a recompence <1576 g@muwl > .

 : 07 Babylon <0894 Babel >  [ hath been ]  a golden <2091 zahab > cup <3563 kowc > in the LORD S <3068 Y@hovah > hand <3027 yad > ,  that made all <3605 kol > the earth <0776 >erets > drunken <7937 shakar > : the nations <1471 gowy > have drunken <8354 shathah > of her wine <3196 yayin > ;  therefore the nations <1471 gowy > are mad <1984 halal > .

 : 08 Babylon <0894 Babel > is suddenly <6597 pith>owm > fallen <5307 naphal > and destroyed <7665 shabar > : howl <3213 yalal > for her ;  take <3947 laqach > balm <6875 ts@riy > for her pain <4341 mak>ob > ,  if <0194 >uwlay > so be she may be healed <7495 rapha> > .

 : 09 We would have healed <7495 rapha> > Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  but she is not healed <7495 rapha> > : forsake <5800 <azab > her ,  and let us go <3212 yalak > every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > into his own country <0776 >erets > : for her judgment <4941 mishpat > reacheth <5060 naga< > unto heaven <8064 shamayim > ,  and is lifted <5375 nasa> > up  [ even ]  to the skies <7834 shachaq > .

 : 10 The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath brought <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > our righteousness <6666 ts@daqah > : come <0935 bow> > ,  and let us declare <5608 caphar > in Zion <6726 Tsiyown > the work <4639 ma<aseh > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > our God <0430 >elohiym > .

 : 11 Make bright <1305 barar > the arrows <1121 ben > ;  gather <4390 male> > the shields <7982 shelet > : the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath raised <5782 <uwr > up the spirit <7307 ruwach > of the kings <4428 melek > of the Medes <4074 Maday > : for his device <4209 m@zimmah >  [ is ]  against <5921 <al > Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  to destroy <7843 shachath > it ;  because <3588 kiy > it  [ is ]  the vengeance <5360 n@qamah > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  the vengeance <5360 n@qamah > of his temple <1964 heykal > .

 : 12 Set <5375 nasa> > up the standard <5251 nec > upon the walls <2346 chowmah > of Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  make the watch <4929 mishmar > strong <2388 chazaq > ,  set <6965 quwm > up the watchmen <8104 shamar > ,  prepare <3559 kuwn > the ambushes <0693 >arab > : for the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath both <1571 gam > devised <2161 zamam > and done <6213 <asah > that which <0834 >aher > he spake <1696 dabar > against <0413 >el > the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Babylon <0894 Babel > .

 : 13 O thou that dwellest <7931 shakan > upon many <7227 rab > waters <4325 mayim > ,  abundant <7227 rab > in treasures <0214 >owtsar > ,  thine end <7093 qets > is come <0935 bow> > ,   [ and ]  the measure <0520 >ammah > of thy covetousness <1215 betsa< > .

 : 14 The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > hath sworn <7650 shaba< > by himself <5315 nephesh > ,   [ saying ]  ,  Surely I will fill <4390 male> > thee with men <0120 >adam > ,  as with caterpillers <3218 yekeq > ;  and they shall lift <6030 <anah > up a shout <1959 heydad > against <5921 <al > thee .

 : 15 He hath made <6213 <asah > the earth <0776 >erets > by his power <3581 koach > ,  he hath established <3559 kuwn > the world <8398 tebel > by his wisdom <2451 chokmah > ,  and hath stretched <5186 natah > out the heaven <8064 shamayim > by his understanding <8394 tabuwn > .

 : 16 When he uttereth <5414 nathan >  [ his ]  voice <6963 qowl > ,   [ there is ]  a multitude <0527 >amown > of waters <4325 mayim > in the heavens <8064 shamayim > ;  and he causeth the vapours <5387 nasiy> > to ascend <5927 <alah > from the ends <7097 qatseh > of the earth <0776 >erets > : he maketh <6213 <asah > lightnings <1300 baraq > with rain <4306 matar > ,  and bringeth <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > the wind <7307 ruwach > out of his treasures <0214 >owtsar > .

 : 17 Every <3605 kol > man <0120 >adam > is brutish <1197 ba<ar > by  [ his ]  knowledge <1847 da<ath > ;  every <3605 kol > founder <6884 tsaraph > is confounded <3001 yabesh > by the graven <6459 pecel > image <6459 pecel > : for his molten <5262 necek > image  [ is ]  falsehood <8267 sheqer > ,  and  [ there is ]  no <3808 lo> > breath <7307 ruwach > in them .

 : 18 They  [ are ]  vanity <1892 hebel > ,  the work <4639 ma<aseh > of errors <8595 ta<tua< > : in the time <6256 <eth > of their visitation <6486 p@quddah > they shall perish <6> .

 : 19 The portion <2506 cheleq > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >  [ is ]  not like them ;  for he  [ is ]  the former <3335 yatsar > of all <3605 kol > things : and  [ Israel <3478 Yisra>el > is ]  the rod <7626 shebet > of his inheritance <5159 nachalah > : the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >  [ is ]  his name <8034 shem > .

 : 20 Thou  [ art ]  my battle <4661 mappets > axe <4601 Ma<akah >  [ and ]  weapons <3627 k@liy > of war <4421 milchamah > : for with thee will I break <5310 naphats > in pieces the nations <1471 gowy > ,  and with thee will I destroy <7843 shachath > kingdoms <4467 mamlakah > ;

 : 21 And with thee will I break <5310 naphats > in pieces the horse <5483 cuwc > and his rider <7392 rakab > ;  and with thee will I break <5310 naphats > in pieces the chariot <7393 rekeb > and his rider <7392 rakab > ;

 : 23 I will also break <5310 naphats > in pieces with thee the shepherd <7462 ra<ah > and his flock <5739 <eder > ;  and with thee will I break <5310 naphats > in pieces the husbandman <0406 >ikkar > and his yoke <6776 tsemed > of oxen ;  and with thee will I break <5310 naphats > in pieces captains <6346 pechah > and rulers <5461 cagan > .

 : 24 And I will render <7999 shalam > unto Babylon <0894 Babel > and to all <3605 kol > the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Chaldea <3778 Kasdiy > all <3605 kol > their evil <7451 ra< > that they have done <6213 <asah > in Zion <6726 Tsiyown > in your sight <5869 <ayin > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 26 And they shall not take <3947 laqach > of thee a stone <68> for a corner <6438 pinnah > ,  nor a stone <68> for foundations <4146 mowcadah > ;  but thou shalt be desolate <8077 sh@mamah > for ever <5769 <owlam > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 29 And the land <0776 >erets > shall tremble <7493 ra<ash > and sorrow <2342 chuwl > : for every purpose <4284 machashabah > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > shall be performed <6965 quwm > against <5921 <al > Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  to make <7760 suwm > the land <0776 >erets > of Babylon <0894 Babel > a desolation <8047 shammah > without <0369 >ayin > an inhabitant <3427 yashab > .

 : 30 The mighty <1368 gibbowr > men of Babylon <0894 Babel > have forborn <2308 chadal > to fight <3898 lacham > ,  they have remained <3427 yashab > in  [ their ]  holds <4679 m@tsad > : their might <1369 g@buwrah > hath failed <5405 nashath > ;  they became <1961 hayah > as women <0802 >ishshah > : they have burned <3341 yatsath > her dwellingplaces <4908 mishkan > ;  her bars <1280 b@riyach > are broken <7665 shabar > .

 : 31 One post <7323 ruwts > shall run <7323 ruwts > to meet <7125 qir>ah > another ,  and one messenger <5046 nagad > to meet <7125 qir>ah > another ,  to shew <5046 nagad > the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > that his city <5892 <iyr > is taken <3920 lakad > at  [ one ]  end <7097 qatseh > ,

 : 35 The violence <2555 chamac > done <6213 <asah > to me and to my flesh <7607 sh@>er >  [ be ]  upon Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  shall the inhabitant <3427 yashab > of Zion <6726 Tsiyown > say <0559 >amar > ;  and my blood <1818 dam > upon the inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Chaldea <3778 Kasdiy > ,  shall Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > say <0559 >amar > .

 : 37 And Babylon <0894 Babel > shall become <1961 hayah > heaps <1530 gal > ,  a dwellingplace <3427 yashab > for dragons <8577 tanniyn > ,  an astonishment <8047 shammah > ,  and an hissing <8322 sh@reqah > ,  without <0369 >ayin > an inhabitant <3427 yashab > .

 : 39 In their heat <2527 chom > I will make <7896 shiyth > their feasts <4960 mishteh > ,  and I will make them drunken <7937 shakar > ,  that they may rejoice <5937 <alaz > ,  and sleep <3462 yashen > a perpetual <5769 <owlam > sleep <8142 shehah > ,  and not wake <6974 quwts > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 40 I will bring <3381 yarad > them down <3381 yarad > like lambs <3733 kar > to the slaughter <2873 tabach > ,  like rams <0352 >ayil > with he goats <6260 <attuwd > .

 : 41 How <0349 >eyk > is Sheshach <8347 Sheshak > taken <3920 lakad > !  and how is the praise <8416 t@hillah > of the whole <3605 kol > earth <0776 >erets > surprised <8610 taphas > !  how <0349 >eyk > is Babylon <0894 Babel > become <1961 hayah > an astonishment <8047 shammah > among the nations <1471 gowy > !

 : 42 The sea <3220 yam > is come <5927 <alah > up upon Babylon <0894 Babel > : she is covered <3680 kacah > with the multitude <0527 >amown > of the waves <1530 gal > thereof .

 : 43 Her cities <5892 <iyr > are a desolation <8047 shammah > ,  a dry <6723 tsiyah > land <0776 >erets > ,  and a wilderness <6160 <arabah > ,  a land <0776 >erets > wherein <0834 >aher > no <3808 lo> > man <0376 >iysh > dwelleth <3427 yashab > ,  neither <3808 lo> > doth  [ any ]  son <1121 ben > of man <0120 >adam > pass <5674 <abar > thereby <2004 hen > .

 : 44 And I will punish <6485 paqad > Bel <1078 Bel > in Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and I will bring <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of his mouth <6310 peh > that which he hath swallowed <1104 bala< > up : and the nations <1471 gowy > shall not flow <5102 nahar > together any more <5750 <owd > unto him : yea <1571 gam > ,  the wall <2346 chowmah > of Babylon <0894 Babel > shall fall <5307 naphal > .

 : 45 My people <5971 <am > ,  go <3318 yatsa> > ye out of the midst <8432 tavek > of her ,  and deliver <4422 malat > ye every man <0376 >iysh > his soul <5315 nephesh > from the fierce <2740 charown > anger <0639 >aph > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 46 And lest <6435 pen > your heart <3824 lebab > faint <7401 rakak > ,  and ye fear <3372 yare> > for the rumour <8052 sh@muw<ah > that shall be heard <8085 shama< > in the land <0776 >erets > ;  a rumour <8052 sh@muw<ah > shall both come <0935 bow> >  [ one ]  year <8141 shaneh > ,  and after <0310 >achar > that in  [ another ]  year <8141 shaneh >  [ shall come ]  a rumour <8052 sh@muw<ah > ,  and violence <2555 chamac > in the land <0776 >erets > ,  ruler <4910 mashal > against <5921 <al > ruler <4910 mashal > .

 : 47 Therefore <3651 ken > ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  the days <3117 yowm > come <0935 bow> > ,  that I will do judgment <6485 paqad > upon the graven <6456 p@ciyl > images of Babylon <0894 Babel > : and her whole <3605 kol > land <0776 >erets > shall be confounded <0954 buwsh > ,  and all <3605 kol > her slain <2491 chalal > shall fall <5307 naphal > in the midst <8432 tavek > of her .

 : 48 Then the heaven <8064 shamayim > and the earth <0776 >erets > ,  and all <3605 kol > that  [ is ]  therein ,  shall sing <7442 ranan > for Babylon <0894 Babel > : for the spoilers <7703 shadad > shall come <0935 bow> > unto her from the north <6828 tsaphown > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 49 As Babylon <0894 Babel >  [ hath caused ]  the slain <2491 chalal > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > to fall <5307 naphal > ,  so at Babylon <0894 Babel > shall fall <5307 naphal > the slain <2491 chalal > of all <3605 kol > the earth <0776 >erets > .

 : 50 Ye that have escaped <6412 paliyt > the sword <2719 chereb > ,  go <1980 halak > away ,  stand <5975 <amad > not still <5975 <amad > : remember <2142 zakar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > afar <7350 rachowq > off ,  and let Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > come <5927 <alah > into <5921 <al > your mind <3824 lebab > .

 : 51 We are confounded <0954 buwsh > ,  because <3588 kiy > we have heard <8085 shama< > reproach <2781 cherpah > : shame <3639 k@limmah > hath covered <3680 kacah > our faces <6440 paniym > : for strangers <2114 zuwr > are come <0935 bow> > into <5921 <al > the sanctuaries <4720 miqdash > of the LORD S <3068 Y@hovah > house <1004 bayith > .

 : 52 Wherefore <3651 ken > ,  behold <2009 hinneh > ,  the days <3117 yowm > come <0935 bow> > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  that I will do judgment <6485 paqad > upon her graven <6456 p@ciyl > images : and through all <3605 kol > her land <0776 >erets > the wounded <2491 chalal > shall groan <0602 >anaq > .

 : 53 Though <3588 kiy > Babylon <0894 Babel > should mount <5927 <alah > up to heaven <8064 shamayim > ,  and though <3588 kiy > she should fortify <1219 batsar > the height <4791 marowm > of her strength <5797 <oz > ,   [ yet ]  from me shall spoilers <7703 shadad > come <0935 bow> > unto her ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > .

 : 54 A sound <6963 qowl > of a cry <2201 za<aq >  [ cometh <0935 bow> > ]  from Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and great <1419 gadowl > destruction <7667 sheber > from the land <0776 >erets > of the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy > :

 : 55 Because <3588 kiy > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath spoiled <7703 shadad > Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and destroyed <6> out of her the great <1419 gadowl > voice <6963 qowl > ;  when her waves <1530 gal > do roar <1993 hamah > like great <7227 rab > waters <4325 mayim > ,  a noise <7588 sha>own > of their voice <6963 qowl > is uttered <5414 nathan > :

 : 56 Because <3588 kiy > the spoiler <7703 shadad > is come <0935 bow> > upon her ,   [ even ]  upon Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and her mighty <1368 gibbowr > men are taken <3920 lakad > ,  every one of their bows <7198 qesheth > is broken <2865 chathath > : for the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0410 >el > of recompences <1578 g@muwlah > shall surely requite <7999 shalam > .

 : 57 And I will make drunk <7937 shakar > her princes <8269 sar > ,  and her wise <2450 chakam >  [ men ]  ,  her captains <6346 pechah > ,  and her rulers <5461 cagan > ,  and her mighty <1368 gibbowr > men : and they shall sleep <3462 yashen > a perpetual <5769 <owlam > sleep <8142 shehah > ,  and not wake <6974 quwts > ,  saith <5002 n@>um > the King <4428 melek > ,  whose name <8034 shem >  [ is ]  the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > .

 : 58 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> > ;  The broad <7342 rachab > walls <2346 chowmah > of Babylon <0894 Babel > shall be utterly broken <6209 <arar > ,  and her high <1364 gaboahh > gates <8179 sha<ar > shall be burned <3341 yatsath > with fire <0784 >esh > ;  and the people <5971 <am > shall labour <3021 yaga< > in vain <7385 riyq > ,  and the folk <3816 l@om > in the fire <0784 >esh > ,  and they shall be weary <3286 ya<aph > .

 : 59 .  The word <1697 dabar > which <0834 >aher > Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the prophet <5030 nabiy> > commanded <6680 tsavah > Seraiah <8304 S@rayah > the son <1121 ben > of Neriah <5374 Neriyah > ,  the son <1121 ben > of Maaseiah <4271 Machceyah > ,  when he went <3212 yalak > with Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > the king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > into Babylon <0894 Babel > in the fourth <7243 r@biy<iy > year <8141 shaneh > of his reign <4427 malak > .  And  [ this ]  Seraiah <8304 S@rayah >  [ was ]  a quiet <4496 m@nuwchah > prince <8269 sar > .

 : 60 So Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > wrote <3789 kathab > in a book <5612 cepher > all <3605 kol > the evil <7451 ra< > that should come <0935 bow> > upon Babylon <0894 Babel > ,   [ even <0853 >eth > ]  all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el - leh > words <1697 dabar > that are written <3789 kathab > against <0413 >el > Babylon <0894 Babel > .

 : 61 And Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > said <0559 >amar > to Seraiah <8304 S@rayah > ,  When thou comest <0935 bow> > to Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and shalt see <7200 ra>ah > ,  and shalt read <7121 qara> > all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el - leh > words <1697 dabar > ;

 : 62 Then shalt thou say <0559 >amar > ,  O LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  thou hast spoken <1696 dabar > against <0413 >el > this <2088 zeh > place <4725 maqowm > ,  to cut <3772 karath > it off ,  that none <1115 biltiy > shall remain <3427 yashab > in it ,  neither <1115 biltiy > man <0120 >adam > nor beast <0929 b@hemah > ,  but that it shall be desolate <8077 sh@mamah > for ever <5769 <owlam > .

 : 63 And it shall be ,  when thou hast made an end <3615 kalah > of reading <7121 qara> > this <2088 zeh > book <5612 cepher > ,   [ that ]  thou shalt bind <7164 qarac > a stone <68> to it ,  and cast <7993 shalak > it into <0413 >el > the midst <8432 tavek > of Euphrates <6578 P@rath > :

 : 64 And thou shalt say <0559 >amar > ,  Thus <3602 kakah > shall Babylon <0894 Babel > sink <8257 shaqa< > ,  and shall not rise <6965 quwm > from the evil <7451 ra< > that I will bring <0935 bow> > upon her : and they shall be weary <3286 ya<aph > .  Thus <2008 hennah > far <2008 hennah >  [ are ]  the words <1697 dabar > of Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > .

 : Jeremiah 52

 : 01 .  Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah >  [ was ]  one <0259 >echad > and twenty <6242 <esriym > years <8141 shaneh > old <1121 ben > when he began to reign <4427 malak > ,  and he reigned <4427 malak > eleven years <8141 shaneh > in Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > .  And his mother s <0517 >em > name <8034 shem >  [ was ]  Hamutal <2537 Chamuwtal > the daughter <1323 bath > of Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > of Libnah <3841 Libnah > .

 : 02 And he did <6213 <asah >  [ that which was ]  evil <7451 ra< > in the eyes <5869 <ayin > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  according to all <3605 kol > that Jehoiakim <3079 Y@howyaqiym > had done <6213 <asah > .

 : 03 For through <5921 <al > the anger <0639 >aph > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > it came <1961 hayah > to pass in Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > and Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > ,  till <5704 <ad > he had cast <7993 shalak > them out from his presence <6440 paniym > ,  that Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > rebelled <4775 marad > against the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > .

 : 04 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass in the ninth <8671 t@shiy<iy > year <8141 shaneh > of his reign <4427 malak > ,  in the tenth <6224 <asiyriy > month <2320 chodesh > ,  in the tenth <6218 <asowr >  [ day ]  of the month <2320 chodesh > ,   [ that ]  Nebuchadrezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > came <0935 bow> > ,  he and all <3605 kol > his army <2428 chayil > ,  against <5921 <al > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  and pitched <2583 chanah > against <5921 <al > it ,  and built <1129 banah > forts <1785 dayeq > against <5921 <al > it round <5439 cabiyb > about .

 : 05 So the city <5892 <iyr > was besieged unto the eleventh year <8141 shaneh > of king <4428 melek > Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > .

 : 06 And in the fourth <7243 r@biy<iy > month <2320 chodesh > ,  in the ninth <8672 tesha< >  [ day ]  of the month <2320 chodesh > ,  the famine <7458 ra<ab > was sore <2388 chazaq > in the city <5892 <iyr > ,  so that there was no <3808 lo> > bread <3899 lechem > for the people <5971 <am > of the land <0776 >erets > .

 : 07 Then the city <5892 <iyr > was broken <1234 baqa< > up ,  and all <3605 kol > the men <0582 >enowsh > of war <4421 milchamah > fled <1272 barach > ,  and went <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of the city <5892 <iyr > by night <3915 layil > by the way <1870 derek > of the gate <8179 sha<ar > between <0996 beyn > the two <8147 sh@nayim > walls <2346 chowmah > ,  which <0834 >aher >  [ was ]  by the king s <4428 melek > garden <1588 gan > ;   ( now the Chaldeans <3778 Kasdiy >  [ were ]  by the city <5892 <iyr > round <5439 cabiyb > about :  )  and they went <3212 yalak > by the way <1870 derek > of the plain <6160 <arabah > .

 : 08 But the army <2428 chayil > of the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > pursued <7291 radaph > after <0310 >achar > the king <4428 melek > ,  and overtook <5381 nasag > Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > in the plains <6160 <arabah > of Jericho <3405 Y@riychow > ;  and all <3605 kol > his army <2428 chayil > was scattered <6327 puwts > from him .

 : 09 Then they took <8610 taphas > the king <4428 melek > ,  and carried <5927 <alah > him up unto the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > to Riblah <7247 Riblah > in the land <0776 >erets > of Hamath <2574 Chamath > ;  where he gave <1696 dabar > judgment <4941 mishpat > upon him .

 : 10 And the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > slew <7819 shachat > the sons <1121 ben > of Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > before his eyes <5869 <ayin > : he slew <7819 shachat > also <1571 gam > all <3605 kol > the princes <8269 sar > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > in Riblah <7247 Riblah > .

 : 11 Then he put <5786 <avar > out the eyes <5869 <ayin > of Zedekiah <6667 Tsidqiyah > ;  and the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > bound <0631 >acar > him in chains <5178 n@chosheth > ,  and carried <0935 bow> > him to Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and put <5411 Nathiyn > him in prison till <5704 <ad > the day <3117 yowm > of his death <4194 maveth > .

 : 12 .  Now in the fifth <2549 chamiyshiy > month <2320 chodesh > ,  in the tenth <6218 <asowr >  [ day ]  of the month <2320 chodesh > ,  which <1958 hiy >  [ was ]  the nineteenth year <8141 shaneh > of Nebuchadrezzar <5019 N@buwkadne>tstsar > king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  came <0935 bow> > Nebuzaradan <5018 N@buwzaradan > ,  captain <7227 rab > of the guard <2876 tabbach > ,   [ which ]  served <5975 <amad > the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  into Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,

 : 13 And burned <8313 saraph > the house <1004 bayith > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  and the king s <4428 melek > house <1004 bayith > ;  and all <3605 kol > the houses <1004 bayith > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > ,  and all <3605 kol > the houses <1004 bayith > of the great <1419 gadowl >  [ men ]  ,  burned <8313 saraph > he with fire <0784 >esh > :

 : 14 And all <3605 kol > the army <2428 chayil > of the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > ,  that  [ were ]  with the captain <7227 rab > of the guard <2876 tabbach > ,  brake <5422 nathats > down <5422 nathats > all <3605 kol > the walls <2346 chowmah > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > round <5439 cabiyb > about .

 : 15 Then Nebuzaradan <5018 N@buwzaradan > the captain <7227 rab > of the guard <2876 tabbach > carried <1540 galah > away captive <1540 galah >  [ certain ]  of the poor <1803 dallah > of the people <5971 <am > ,  and the residue <3499 yether > of the people <5971 <am > that remained <7604 sha>ar > in the city <5892 <iyr > ,  and those that fell <5307 naphal > away ,  that fell <5307 naphal > to the king <4428 melek > of Babylon <0894 Babel > ,  and the rest <3499 yether > of the multitude <0527 >amown > .

 : 16 But Nebuzaradan <5018 N@buwzaradan > the captain <7227 rab > of the guard <2876 tabbach > left <7604 sha>ar >  [ certain ]  of the poor <1803 dallah > of the land <0776 >erets > for vinedressers <3755 korem > and for husbandmen <3009 yagab > .

 : 17 Also the pillars <5982 <ammuwd > of brass <5178 n@chosheth > that  [ were ]  in the house <1004 bayith > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  and the bases <4350 m@kownah > ,  and the brasen <5178 n@chosheth > sea <3220 yam > that  [ was ]  in the house <1004 bayith > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > ,  the Chaldeans <3779 Kasday > brake <7665 shabar > ,  and carried <5375 nasa> > all <3605 kol > the brass <5178 n@chosheth > of them to Babylon <0894 Babel > .
