7:4	TrustDont yetrust not in lying words, saying, TheYahwehs temple of Jehovah, theYahwehs temple of Jehovah, theYahwehs temple of Jehovah, are these.
7:5	For if yeyou thoroughly amend your ways and your doings;, if yeyou thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbor;
7:6	if yeyou dont oppress not the sojournerforeigner, the fatherless, and the widow, and dont shed not innocent blood in this place, neitherand dont walk after other gods to your own hurt:,
7:7	then I will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from of old even forforever evermoremore.

7:11	IsHas this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, I, evenmyself I, have seen it, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
7:12	But go ye now untoto my place which was in Shiloh, where I caused my name to dwell at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.

7:18	The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead the dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaventhe sky, and to pour out drink offerings untoto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.
7:19	Do they provoke me to anger? saithsays Jehovah;Yahweh. doDont they not provoke themselves, to the confusion of their own faces?
7:20	Therefore thus saith the Lord JehovahYahweh says: Behold, minemy anger and my wrath shallwill be poured out uponon this place, uponon man, andon upon beastanimal, andon upon the trees of the field, and uponon the fruit of the ground; and it shallwill burn, and shallwill not be quenched.
7:21	ThusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel says: Add your burnt offerings untoto your sacrifices, and eat ye fleshmeat.

7:31	AndThey they have built the high places of Topheth, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire;, which I commandeddidnt notcommand, neithernor camedid it come into my mind.
7:32	Therefore, behold, the days come, saithsays JehovahYahweh, that it shallwill no more be called Topheth, noror The valley of the son of Hinnom, but The valley of Slaughter:; for they shallwill bury in Topheth, tilluntil there beis no place to bury.
7:33	AndThe the dead bodies of this people shallwill be food for the birds of the heavenssky, and for the beastsanimals of the earth;. andNo noneone shallwill frighten them away.
7:34	Then I will I cause to cease from the cities of Judah, and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride; for the land shallwill become a waste.
8:1	At that time, saithsays JehovahYahweh, they shallwill bring out the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves;.
8:2	andThey theywill shall spread them before the sun, and the moon, and all the hostarmy of heaventhe sky, which they have loved, and which they have served, and after which they have walked, and which they have sought, and which they have worshipped:worshiped. theyThey shallwill not be gathered, noror be buried,. theyThey shallwill be forlike dung uponon the facesurface of the earth.

8:11	AndThey they have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace;, when there is no peace.
8:12	Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nayNo, they were not at all ashamed,. neitherThey couldcouldnt they blush:. thereforeTherefore shall they will fall among themthose thatwho fall;. inIn the time of their visitation they shallwill be cast down, saithsays JehovahYahweh.

8:15	We looked for peace, but no good came; and for a time of healing, and, behold, dismay!
8:16	The snorting of his horses is heard from Dan:. The whole land trembles at the sound of the neighing of his strong ones the whole land trembleth; for they arehave come, and have devoured the land and all that is in it;, the city and those thatwho dwell therein.

8:20	The harvest is past,. theThe summer ishas ended, and we are not saved.
8:21	For the hurt of the daughter of my people, I am I hurt:. I mourn;. dismayDismay hathhas taken hold onof me.
8:22	Is there no balm in Gilead? isIs there no physician there? whyWhy then isisnt not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?
9:1	Oh that my head were waters, and minemy eyes a fountainspring of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people!
9:2	Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging place of wayfaring men;, that I might leave my people, and go from them! forFor they are all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous men.
9:3	AndThey they bend their tongue, as it were their bow, for falsehood;. andThey theyhave are grown strong in the land, but not for truth:; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they dont know not me, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
9:4	TakeEveryone yebeware heed every one of his neighbor, and dont trust ye not in any brother; for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbor will go aboutaround withlike slandersa slanderer.

9:6	ThyYour habitation is in the midstmiddle of deceit;. throughThrough deceit, they refuse to know me, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
9:7	Therefore thusYahweh saithof JehovahArmies of hostssays, Behold, I will melt them, and trytest them; for how else should I do,deal becausewith of the daughter of my people?
9:8	Their tongue is a deadly arrow;. itIt speakethspeaks deceit:. oneOne speakethspeaks peaceably to his neighbor with his mouth, but in his heart, he layethwaits waitto forambush him.

9:11	And I will make Jerusalem heaps, a dwelling place of jackals;. and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.
9:12	Who is the wise man,enough thatto may understand this? andWho who is he to whom the mouth of JehovahYahweh hathhas spoken, that he may declare it? whereforeWhy ishas the land perished and burned up like a wilderness, so that noneno passethone passes through?
9:13	AndYahweh Jehovah saithsays, Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed my voice, neitheror walked thereinin my ways,
9:14	but have walked after the stubbornness of their own heart, and after the BaalimBaals, which their fathers taught them;.
9:15	thereforeTherefore thusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says, Behold, I will feed them, even this people, with wormwood, and give them poisoned water of gall to drink.
9:16	I will scatter them also among the nations, whom neither they nor their fathers have known;. and I will send the sword after them, tilluntil I have consumed them.
9:17	ThusYahweh saithof JehovahArmies of hostssays, Consider ye, and call for the mourning women, that they may come;. andSend send for the skilfulskillful women, that they may come:.
9:18	andLet let them make haste, and take up a wailing for us, that our eyes may run down with tears, and our eyelids gush out with waters.

10:15	They are vanity, a work of delusion:. inIn the time of their visitation they shallwill perish.
10:16	The portion of Jacob is not like these; for he is the formermaker of all things; and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance:. JehovahYahweh of hostsArmies is his name.
10:17	Gather up thyyour wares out of the land, Oyou thouwho thatlive abidestunder in the siege.

11:5	that I may establish the oath which I swareswore untoto your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as atit thisis daytoday. Then I answered I, and said, Amen, O JehovahYahweh.
11:6	AndYahweh Jehovah said untoto me, Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, Hear ye the words of this covenant, and do them.

11:12	Then shall the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem will go and cry untoto the gods untoto which they offer incense:, but they will not save them at all in the time of their trouble.
11:13	For according to the number of thyyour cities are thyyour gods, O Judah; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem you have ye set up altars to the shameful thing, even altars to burn incense untoto Baal.
11:14	Therefore dont pray not thou for this people,. neitherDont lift up cry noror prayer for them; for I will not hear them in the time that they cry untoto me because of their trouble.

12:14	ThusYahweh saithsays, JehovahConcerning against all minemy evil neighbors, thatwho touch the inheritance which I have caused my people Israel to inherit: Behold, I will pluck them up from off their land, and will pluck up the house of Judah from among them.
12:15	AndIt itwill shallhappen comethat to pass, after that I have plucked them up, I will return and have compassion on them;. and I will bring them again, every man to his heritage, and every man to his land.
12:16	AndIt itwill shall come to passhappen, if they will diligently learn the ways of my people, to swear by my name, As JehovahYahweh livethlives; even as they taught my people to swear by Baal;, then shall they will be built up in the midstmiddle of my people.
12:17	But if they will not hear, then I will I pluck up that nation, plucking up and destroying it, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
13:1	ThusYahweh saithsaid Jehovahto unto me, Go, and buy theeyourself a linen girdlebelt, and put it uponon thyyour loinswaist, and dont put it not in water.
13:2	So I bought a girdlebelt according to theYahwehs word of Jehovah, and put it uponon my loinswaist.
13:3	AndYahwehs the word of Jehovah came untoto me the second time, saying,
13:4	Take the girdlebelt that thouyou hasthave bought, which is uponon thyyour loinswaist, and arise, go to the Euphrates, and hide it there in a cleft of the rock.
13:5	So I went, and hid it by the Euphrates, as JehovahYahweh commanded me.
13:6	AndAfter it came to pass after many days, thatYahweh Jehovah said untoto me, Arise, go to the Euphrates, and take the girdlebelt from thencethere, which I commanded theeyou to hide there.
13:7	Then I went to the Euphrates, and diggeddug, and took the girdlebelt from the place where I had hidhidden it; and, behold, the girdlebelt was marred,ruined. itIt was profitable for nothing.
13:8	Then theYahwehs word of Jehovah came untoto me, saying,
13:9	ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, AfterIn this mannerway I will Iruin mar the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem.
13:10	This evil people, thatwho refuse to hear my words, thatwho walk in the stubbornness of their heart, and arehave gone after other gods to serve them, and to worship them, shallwill even be as this girdlebelt, which is profitable for nothing.
13:11	For as the girdlebelt cleavethclings to the loinswaist of a man, so I have I caused to cleave unto me the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah to cling to me, saithsays JehovahYahweh; that they may be untoto me for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory:; but they would not hear.
13:12	Therefore thouyou shaltshall speak untoto them this word: Thus saith JehovahYahweh, the God of Israel says, Every bottlecontainer shallshould be filled with wine:. andThey theywill shalltell say unto theeyou, Do we not certainly know that every bottlecontainer shallshould be filled with wine?
13:13	Then shalttell thou say unto them, ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the kings thatwho sit uponon Davids throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness.
13:14	And I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, saithsays JehovahYahweh: I will not pity, nor spare, noror have compassion, that I should not destroy them.
13:15	Hear ye, and give ear;. Dont be not proud;, for JehovahYahweh hathhas spoken.
13:16	Give glory to JehovahYahweh your God, before he causecauses darkness, and before your feet stumble uponon the dark mountains, and, while yeyou look for light, he turnturns it into the shadow of death, and makemakes it grossdeep darkness.
13:17	But if yeyou will not hear it, my soul shallwill weep in secret for your pride;. andMy mine eye shallwill weep sorebitterly, and run down with tears, because JehovahsYahwehs flock ishas been taken captive.
13:18	Say thouto unto the king and to the queen mother, Humble yourselves,. sitSit down;, for your headtirescrowns arehave come down, even the crown of your glory.
13:19	The cities of the South are shut up, and there is noneno one to open them:. Judah is carried away captive,: all of it;them. itThey isare wholly carried away captive.
13:20	Lift up your eyes, and beholdsee themthose thatwho come from the north:. whereWhere is the flock that was given theeto you, thyyour beautiful flock?
13:21	What wiltwill thouyou say, when he shallsets set over theeyou as head those whom thouyou hasthave thyselfyourself taught to be friends to theeyou? shallWont not sorrows take hold of theeyou, as of a woman in travail?

13:23	Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? thenThen may yeyou also do good, thatwho are accustomed to do evil.
13:24	Therefore I will I scatter them, as the stubble that passethpasses away, by the wind of the wilderness.
13:25	This is thyyour lot, the portion measured untoto theeyou from me, saithsays Jehovah;Yahweh, because thouyou hasthave forgotten me, and trusted in falsehood.
13:26	Therefore I will I also uncover thyyour skirts uponon thyyour face, and thyyour shame shallwill appear.

19:7	And I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem void in this place;. and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of themthose thatwho seek their life:. andI will give their dead bodies will I give to be food for the birds of the heavens,sky and for the beastsanimals of the earth.
19:8	And I will make this city an astonishment, and a hissing;. everyEveryone onewho thatpasses passethby therebyit shallwill be astonished and hiss because of all theits plagues thereof.
19:9	And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters;. andThey theywill shalleach eat every one the flesh of his friend, in the siege and in the distress, wherewithwith which their enemies, and theythose thatwho seek their life, shallwill distress them.
19:10	Then shaltyou thoushall break the bottlecontainer in the sight of the men thatwho go with theeyou,
19:11	and shaltshall saytell unto them, ThusYahweh saithof JehovahArmies of hostssays: Even so I will I break this people and this city, as one breakethbreaks a potters vessel, that cannotcant be made whole again;. andThey theywill shall bury in Topheth, tilluntil there beis no place to bury.
19:12	ThusThis willis what I will do untoto this place, saithsays JehovahYahweh, and to theits inhabitants thereof, even making this city as Topheth:.
19:13	andThe the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, which are defiled, shallwill be as the place of Topheth, even all the houses uponon whose roofs they have burned incense untoto all the hostarmy of heaven,the sky and have poured out drink offerings untoto other gods.
19:14	Then Jeremiah came Jeremiah from Topheth, whitherwhere JehovahYahweh had sent him to prophesy;, and he stood in the court of JehovahsYahwehs house, and said to all the people:
19:15	ThusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel says, Behold, I will bring uponon this city and uponon all its towns all the evil that I have pronounced against it;, because they have made their neck stiff, that they may not hear my words.
20:1	Now Pashhur, the son of Immer the priest, who was chief officer in theYahwehs house of Jehovah, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things.
20:2	Then Pashhur smotestruck Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the upper gate of Benjamin, which was in theYahwehs house of Jehovah.
20:3	AndOn itthe camenext to pass on the morrowday, that Pashhur broughtreleased forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then Jeremiah said Jeremiahto unto him, JehovahYahweh hathhas not called thyyour name Pashhur, but Magor missabibMagormissabib.
20:4	For thusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, Behold, I will make theeyou a terror to thyself,yourself and to all thyyour friends;. andThey theywill shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and thineyour eyes shallwill beholdsee it;. and I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shallwill carry them captive to Babylon, and shallwill slaykill them with the sword.
20:5	Moreover I will give all the riches of this city, and all theits gains thereof, and all theits precious things thereof, yeayes, I will give all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies;. andThey theywill shall make them a preycaptives, and take them, and carry them to Babylon.
20:6	And thouYou, Pashhur, and all thatwho dwell in thyyour house shallwill go into captivity;. andYou thouwill shalt come to Babylon, and there thouyou shaltwill die, and there shaltyou thouwill be buried, thouyou, and all thyyour friends, to whom thouyou hasthave prophesied falsely.
20:7	O JehovahYahweh, thouyou hasthave persuaded me, and I was persuaded;. thouYou artare stronger than I, and hasthave prevailed:. I amhave become a laughinglaughingstock stock all the day,. everyEveryone onemocks mocketh me.
20:8	For as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, Violence and destruction! because theYahwehs word ofhas Jehovahbeen is made a reproach untoto me, and a derision, all the day.
20:9	AndIf if I say, that I will not make mention of him, noror speak any more in his name, then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones,. and I am weary with forbearing,holding andit in. I cannot containcant.
20:10	For I have heard the defaming of many,: terrorTerror on every side.! Denounce, and we will denounce him,! say all my familiar friends, theythose thatwho watch for my fall;. peradventurePerhaps he will be persuaded, and we shallwill prevail against him, and we shallwill take our revenge on him.
20:11	But JehovahYahweh is with me as aan awesome mighty one. andTherefore a terrible: therefore my persecutors shallwill stumble, and they shallwont not prevail;. theyThey shallwill be utterly putdisappointed to shame, because they have not dealt wisely, even with an everlasting dishonor which shallwill never be forgotten.
20:12	But, OYahweh Jehovah of hostsArmies, thatwho triesttests the righteous, thatwho seestsees the heart and the mind, let me see thyyour vengeance on them;, for untoI thee have I revealed my cause to you.
20:13	Sing untoto Jehovah,Yahweh! praisePraise yeYahweh, Jehovah; for he hathhas delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evil doersevildoers.
20:14	Cursed beis the day whereinin which I was born:. Dont let not the day whereinin which my mother barebore me be blessed.
20:15	Cursed beis the man who brought tidingsnews to my father, saying, A manboy child is born untoto thee;you, making him very glad.
20:16	AndLet let that man be as the cities which JehovahYahweh overthrew, and repenteddidnt not:repent. andLet let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting at noontime;,
20:17	because he slewdidnt kill me not from the womb;. andSo so my mother would have been my grave, and her womb always great.
20:18	WhereforeWhy camedid I forthcome out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
21:1	The word which came untoto Jeremiah from JehovahYahweh, when kingKing Zedekiah sent untoto him Pashhur the son of Malchijah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, saying,
21:2	Inquire,Please Iinquire pray thee, of JehovahYahweh for us; for NebuchadrezzarNebuchadnezzar king of Babylon makethmakes war against us:. peradventurePerhaps JehovahYahweh will deal with us according to all his wondrous works, that he may gowithdraw up from us.
21:3	Then Jeremiah said Jeremiahto unto them, ThusTell shall ye say to Zedekiah:
21:4	Thus saith JehovahYahweh, the God of Israel says, Behold, I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands, wherewithwith yewhich you fight against the king of Babylon, and against the Chaldeans thatwho besiege you, withoutoutside the walls; and I will gather them into the midstmiddle of this city.
21:5	And I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation.
21:6	And I will smitestrike the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast:animal. theyThey shallwill die of a great pestilence.
21:7	And afterwardAfterward, saithsays JehovahYahweh, I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah, and his servants, and the people, even suchthose aswho are left in this city from the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, into the hand of NebuchadrezzarNebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those thatwho seek their life:. andHe hewill shallstrike smite them with the edge of the sword;. heHe shallwill not spare them, neither have pity, noror have mercy.
21:8	AndYou untoshall say to this people thou shalt say, ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: Behold, I set before you the way of life and the way of death.
21:9	He thatwho abidethremains in this city shallwill die by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence;, but he thatwho goethgoes out, and passethpasses over to the Chaldeans thatwho besiege you, he shallwill live, and hishe lifewill shallescape bewith untohis him for a preylife.
21:10	For I have set my face uponon this city for evil, and not for good, saithsays Jehovah:Yahweh. itIt shallwill be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shallwill burn it with fire.
21:11	AndConcerning touching the house of the king of Judah, hear yeYahwehs the word of Jehovah:
21:12	OHouse house of David, thusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, Execute justice in the morning, and deliver him thatwho is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor, lest my wrath go forthout like fire, and burn so that noneno one can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.
21:13	Behold, I am against theeyou, O inhabitant of the valley, and of the rock of the plain, saithsays Jehovah;Yahweh. youYou that say, Who shallwould come down against us? or, whoWho shallwould enter into our habitationshomes?
21:14	And I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings, saithsays JehovahYahweh; and I will kindle a fire in her forest, and it shallwill devour all that is roundaround about her.
22:1	ThusYahweh said, Jehovah: Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and speak there this word, there:
22:2	and say, Hear theYahwehs word of Jehovah, O king of Judah, thatwho sittestsits uponon theDavids throne of David—you, thou,your and thy servants, and thyyour people thatwho enter in by these gates.
22:3	ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: Execute ye justice and righteousness, and deliver him thatwho is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor:. andDo do no wrong,. doDo no violence, to the sojournerforeigner, the fatherless, noror the widow;. neitherDont shed innocent blood in this place.
22:4	For if yeyou do this thing indeed, then shallkings theresitting on Davids throne will enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses—they, he,their and his servants, and histheir people.
22:5	But if yeyou will not hear these words, I swear by myself, saithsays JehovahYahweh, that this house shallwill become a desolation.
22:6	For thusYahweh saithsays Jehovah concerning the house of the king of Judah: ThouYou artare Gilead untoto me, and the head of Lebanon;. yetYet surely I will make theeyou a wilderness, and cities which are not inhabited.
22:7	And I will prepare destroyers against theeyou, everyeveryone one with his weapons;, and they shallwill cut down thyyour choice cedars, and cast them into the fire.
22:8	AndMany many nations shallwill pass by this city, and they shallwill sayeach everyask man to his neighbor, WhereforeWhy hathhas JehovahYahweh done thusthis untoto this great city?
22:9	Then they shallwill answer, Because they forsookabandoned the covenant of JehovahYahweh their God, andworshiped worshipped other gods, and served them.
22:10	WeepDont yeweep not for the dead,. neitherDont bemoan him; but weep sorebitterly for him thatwho goethgoes away;, for he shallwill return no more, norand not see his native country.
22:11	For thusYahweh saithsays Jehovah touching Shallum the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who reigned instead of Josiah his father, and who went forth out of this place: He shallwont not return thitherthere any more;.
22:12	butBut he will die in the place whitherwhere they have led him captive,. thereHe shallwill he die, and he shall see this land no more.
22:13	Woe untoto him thatwho buildethbuilds his house by unrighteousness, and his chambersrooms by injustice; thatwho usethuses his neighbors service without wages, and givethdoesnt give him not his hire;
22:14	thatwho saithsays, I will build memyself a wide house and spacious chambersrooms, and cuttethcuts him out windows; andfor ithimself, iswith ceileda withcedar cedarceiling, and painted with vermilionred.
22:15	ShaltShould thouyou reign, because thouyou striveststrive to excel in cedar? DidDidnt notyour thy father eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness? thenThen it was well with him.
22:16	He judged the cause of the poor and needy; so then it was well. WasWasnt not this to know me? saithsays JehovahYahweh.
22:17	But thineyour eyes and thyyour heart are notonly but for thyyour covetousness, and for shedding innocent blood, and for oppression, and for doing violence, to do it.
22:18	Therefore thusYahweh saithsays Jehovah concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah: theyThey shallwont not lament for him, saying, Ah my brother! or, Ah sister! They shallwont not lament for him, saying Ah Lord! or, Ah his glory!
22:19	He shallwill be buried with the burial of ana assdonkey, drawn and cast forthout beyond the gates of Jerusalem.
22:20	Go up to Lebanon, and cry; andout. liftLift up thyyour voice in Bashan, and cry from Abarim; for all thyyour lovers arehave been destroyed.
22:21	I spakespoke untoto theeyou in thyyour prosperity;, but thouyou saidstsaid, I will not hearlisten. This hathhas been thyyour mannerway from thyyour youth, that thouyou obeyedstdidnt notobey my voice.
22:22	The wind shallwill feed all thyyour shepherds, and thyyour lovers shallwill go into captivity:. surelySurely then shaltyou thouwill be ashamed and confounded for all thyyour wickedness.
22:23	OInhabitant inhabitant of Lebanon, thatwho makestmakes thyyour nest in the cedars, how greatly to be pitied shaltyou thouwill be when pangs come uponon theeyou, the pain as of a woman in travail!
22:24	As I live, saithsays JehovahYahweh, though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet uponon my right hand, yetI would Istill pluck theeyou thence;from there.
22:25	and I willwould give theeyou into the hand of themthose thatwho seek thyyour life, and into the hand of them of whom thouyou artare afraid, even into the hand of NebuchadrezzarNebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans.
22:26	And I will cast theeyou out, andwith thyyour mother thatwho barebore thee,you into another country, where yeyou were not born; and there shallyou yewill die.
22:27	But to the land whereuntoto which their soul longethlongs to return, thitherthere shall they will not return.
22:28	Is this man Coniah a despised broken vessel? isIs he a vessel whereinin nonewhich delightethno one delights? whereforeWhy are they cast out, he and his seedoffspring, and are cast into thea land which they dont know not?
22:29	O earth, earth, earth, hear theYahwehs word of Jehovah.!
22:30	ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, WriteRecord ye this man as childless, a man thatwho shallwill not prosper in his days; for no more shallwill a man of his seedoffspring prosper, sitting uponon theDavids throne of David, and ruling in Judah.
23:1	Woe untoto the shepherds thatwho destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saithsays JehovahYahweh.
23:2	Therefore thus saith JehovahYahweh, the God of Israel, says against the shepherds thatwho feed my people: YeYou have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them;. beholdBehold, I will visit uponon you the evil of your doings, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
23:3	And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries whitherwhere I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they shallwill be fruitful and multiply.
23:4	And I will set up shepherds over them, who shallwill feed them;. andThey theywill shallno fearlonger nobe more,afraid noror be dismayed, neither shallwill any be lacking, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
23:5	Behold, the days come, saithsays JehovahYahweh, that I will raise untoto David a righteous Branch,; and he shallwill reign as king and deal wisely, and shallwill execute justice and righteousness in the land.
23:6	In his days Judah shallwill be saved, and Israel shallwill dwell safely;. andThis this is his name wherebyby which he shallwill be called: JehovahYahweh our righteousness.
23:7	Therefore, behold, the days come, saithsays JehovahYahweh, that they shallwill no more say, As JehovahYahweh livethlives, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
23:8	but, As JehovahYahweh livethlives, who brought up and who led the seedoffspring of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all the countries whitherwhere I had driven them. AndThen they shallwill dwell in their own land.
23:9	Concerning the prophets.: My heart within me is broken,. allAll my bones shake;. I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine hathhas overcome, because of JehovahYahweh, and because of his holy words.
23:10	For the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearingthe curse the land mourneth;mourns. theThe pastures of the wilderness arehave dried up. AndTheir their course is evil, and their might is not right;
23:11	for both prophet and priest are profane;. yeaYes, in my house I have I found their wickedness, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
23:12	WhereforeTherefore their way shallwill be untoto them as slippery places in the darkness:. theyThey shallwill be driven on, and fall therein; for I will bring evil uponon them, even the year of their visitation, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
23:13	And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria;. theyThey prophesied by Baal, and caused my people Israel to err.
23:14	In the prophets of Jerusalem also I have also seen a horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies;. andThey they strengthen the hands of evil doersevildoers, so that noneno dothone returnreturns from his wickedness:. theyThey arehave all of them become untoto me as Sodom, and theits inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.
23:15	Therefore thusYahweh saithof JehovahArmies ofsays hosts concerning the prophets: Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink thepoisoned water of gall; for from the prophets of Jerusalem is ungodliness has gone forthout into all the land.
23:16	ThusYahweh saithof JehovahArmies of hostssays, HearkenDont notlisten untoto the words of the prophets thatwho prophesy untoto you:. theyThey teach you vanity;. theyThey speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of JehovahYahweh.
23:17	They say continually untoto themthose thatwho despise me, JehovahYahweh hathhas said, YeYou shallwill have peace; and untoto everyeveryone onewho thatwalks walketh in the stubbornness of his own heart they say, No evil shallwill come uponon you.
23:18	For who hathhas stood in the council of JehovahYahweh, that he should perceive and hear his word? whoWho hathhas markedlistened to my word, and heard it?
23:19	Behold, theYahwehs tempest of Jehovahstorm, even his wrath, ishas gone forth,out. yeaYes, a whirling tempest:storm! itIt shallwill burst uponon the head of the wicked.
23:20	TheYahwehs anger ofwill Jehovah shall not return, until he havehas executed, and till he have performed the intents of his heart:. inIn the latter days, yeyou shallwill understand it perfectly.
23:21	I sentdidnt notsend these prophets, yet they ran:. I spakedidnt notspeak untoto them, yet they prophesied.
23:22	But if they had stood in my council, then had they would have caused my people to hear my words, and hadwould have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.
23:23	Am I a God at hand, saithsays JehovahYahweh, and not a God afar off?
23:24	Can anyanyone hide himself in secret places so that I shallcant not see him? saithsays JehovahYahweh. DoDont not I fill heaven and earth? saithsays JehovahYahweh.
23:25	I have heard what the prophets have said, thatwho prophesy lies in my name, saying, I havehad dreamed,a dream! I havehad dreamed.a dream!
23:26	How long shallwill this be in the heart of the prophets thatwho prophesy lies, even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart?
23:27	thatThey thinkintend to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they each tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers forgatforgot my name forbecause of Baal.
23:28	The prophet thatwho hathhas a dream, let him tell a dream; and he thatwho hathhas my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the straw to the wheat? saithsays JehovahYahweh.
23:29	IsIsnt not my word like fire? saithsays JehovahYahweh; and like a hammer that breakethbreaks the rock in pieces?
23:30	Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, saithsays JehovahYahweh, thatwho each steal my words every one from his neighbor.
23:31	Behold, I am against the prophets, saithsays JehovahYahweh, thatwho use their tongues, and say, He saithsays.
23:32	Behold, I am against themthose thatwho prophesy lying dreams, saithsays JehovahYahweh, andwho do tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their vain boasting:; yet I sentdidnt send them not,or norcommand commanded them;. neitherThey dodont they profit this people at all, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
23:33	AndWhen when this people, or the prophet, or a priest, shallasks ask theeyou, saying, What is the burdenmessage offrom JehovahYahweh? thenThen shaltyou thoushall saytell unto them, What burden!message? I will cast you off, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
23:34	AndAs as for the prophet, and the priest, and the people, thatwho shall say, The burdenmessage offrom JehovahYahweh, I will even punish that man and his househousehold.
23:35	ThusYou shallwill ye say everyeveryone one to his neighbor, and everyeveryone one to his brother, What hathhas JehovahYahweh answered? and, What hathhas JehovahYahweh spokensaid?
23:36	AndYou thewill burdenmention ofthe Jehovahmessage shallfrom yeYahweh mention no more:, for every mans own word shallhas bebecome his burdenmessage; for yeyou have perverted the words of the living God, of JehovahYahweh of hostsArmies, our God.
23:37	ThusYou shaltwill thou say to the prophet, What hathhas JehovahYahweh answered theeyou? and, What hathhas JehovahYahweh spoken?
23:38	ButAlthough ifyou ye say, The burdenmessage offrom Jehovah;Yahweh, therefore thusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: Because yeyou say this word, The burdenmessage offrom JehovahYahweh, and I have sent untoto you, saying,telling Yeyou shall not to say, The burdenmessage offrom Jehovah;Yahweh,
23:39	therefore, behold, I will utterly forget you, and I will cast you off, andwith the city that I gave untoto you and to your fathers, away from my presence:.
23:40	and I will bring an everlasting reproach uponon you, and a perpetual shame, which shallwill not be forgotten.
24:1	JehovahYahweh showed me, and, behold, two baskets of figs were set before theYahwehs temple of Jehovah, after thatNebuchadnezzar Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon had carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and the princes of Judah, with the craftsmen and smiths, from Jerusalem, and had brought them to Babylon.
24:3	Then saidYahweh Jehovahasked unto me, What seestdo thouyou see, Jeremiah? And I said, Figs;. theThe good figs, are very good;, and the bad, are very bad, thatso cannotbad bethat eaten, they arecant sobe badeaten.
24:4	AndYahwehs the word of Jehovah came untoto me, saying,
24:5	Thus saith JehovahYahweh, the God of Israel says: Like these good figs, so I will I regard the captives of Judah, whom I have sent out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans, foras good.
24:6	For I will set minemy eyes uponon them for good, and I will bring them again to this land:. and I will build them, and not pull them down;. and I will plant them, and not pluck them up.
24:7	And I will give them a heart to know me, that I am Jehovah:Yahweh. andThey theywill shall be my people, and I will be their God; for they shallwill return untoto me with their whole heart.
24:8	AndAs as the bad figs, which cannotcant be eaten, they are so bad, surely thusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, So I will I give up Zedekiah the king of Judah, and his princes, and the residueremnant of Jerusalem, thatwho remain in this land, and themthose thatwho dwell in the land of Egypt,.
24:9	I will even give them up to be tossed toback and froforth among all the kingdoms of the earth for evil;, to be a reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a curse, in all places whitherwhere I shallwill drive them.
24:10	And I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, among them, tilluntil they beare consumed from off the land that I gave untoto them and to their fathers.
25:1	The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah thethis same was the first year of NebuchadrezzarNebuchadnezzar king of Babylon,
25:2	which Jeremiah the prophet spakespoke untoto all the people of Judah, and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying:
25:3	From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, even untoto this day, these twenty three and twenty years, theYahwehs word ofhas Jehovah hath come untoto me, and I have spoken untoto you, rising up early and speaking; but yeyou have not hearkenedlistened.
25:4	AndYahweh Jehovahhas hath sent untoto you all his servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, but yeyou have not hearkened,listened noror inclined your ear to hear,
25:5	saying, Return ye now everyeveryone one from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that JehovahYahweh hathhas given untoto you and to your fathers, from of old and even forforever evermore;more.
25:6	andDont go not after other gods to serve them, andor to worship them, and dont provoke me not to anger with the work of your hands; andthen I will do you no hurtharm.
25:7	Yet yeyou have not hearkenedlistened untoto me, saithsays Jehovah;Yahweh, that yeyou may provoke me to anger with the work of your hands to your own hurt.
25:8	Therefore thusYahweh saithof JehovahArmies of hostssays: Because yeyou have not heard my words,
25:9	behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, saithsays JehovahYahweh, and I will send untoto NebuchadrezzarNebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against theits inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations roundaround. about; and I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual desolations.
25:11	AndThis this whole land shallwill be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shallwill serve the king of Babylon seventy years.
25:12	AndIt itwill shall come to passhappen, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, saithsays JehovahYahweh, for their iniquity,. andI will make the land of the Chaldeans; and I will make it desolate for everforever.
25:13	And I will bring uponon that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah hathhas prophesied against all the nations.
25:14	For many nations and great kings shallwill make bondmenbondservants of them, even of them;. and I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the work of their hands.
25:15	For thus saith JehovahYahweh, the God of Israel, untosays to me: Take this cup of the wine of wrath atfrom my hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send thee,you to drink it.
25:16	AndThey theywill shall drink, and reel toback and froforth, and be madinsane, because of the sword that I will send among them.
25:17	Then I took I the cup at JehovahsYahwehs hand, and made all the nations to drink, untoto whom JehovahYahweh had sent me:
25:18	to wit, Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, andwith theits kings thereof, and theits princes thereof, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse, as it is this daytoday;
25:19	Pharaoh king of Egypt, andwith his servants, and his princes, and all his people;
25:20	and all the mingledmixed people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, and all the kings of the Philistines, and Ashkelon, and Gaza, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;
25:21	Edom, and Moab, and the children of Ammon;
25:22	and all the kings of Tyre, and all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of the isle which is beyond the sea;
25:23	Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all thatwho have the corners of their hairbeard cut off;
25:24	and all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mingledmixed people thatwho dwell in the wilderness;
25:25	and all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes;
25:26	and all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world, which are uponon the facesurface of the earth:. andThe the king of Sheshach shallwill drink after them.
25:27	AndYou thoushall shalttell say unto them, ThusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel says: Drink ye, and be drunkendrunk, and spewvomit, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.
25:28	AndIt it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at thyyour hand to drink, then shaltyou thoushall saytell unto them, ThusYahweh saithof JehovahArmies of hostssays: YeYou shall surely drink.
25:29	For, lobehold, I begin to work evil at the city which is called by my name; and should yeyou be utterly unpunished? YeYou shallwill not be unpunished; for I will call for a sword uponon all the inhabitants of the earth, saithsays JehovahYahweh of hostsArmies.

25:37	AndThe thepeaceful peaceable folds are brought to silence because of the fierce anger of JehovahYahweh.
25:38	He hathhas left his covert, as the lion; for their land ishas become an astonishment because of the fierceness of the oppressing swordoppression, and because of his fierce anger.
26:1	In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, came this word came from Jehovah, saying,Yahweh:
26:2	ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: Stand in the court of JehovahsYahwehs house, and speak untoto all the cities of Judah, which come to worship in JehovahsYahwehs house, all the words that I command theeyou to speak untoto them;. diminishDont notomit a word.
26:3	It may be they will hearkenlisten, and turn every man turn from his evil way;, that I may repentrelent mefrom of the evil which I purposeintend to do untoto them because of the evil of their doings.
26:4	AndYou thoushall shalttell say unto them, ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: If yeyou will not hearkenlisten to me, to walk in my law, which I have set before you,
26:5	to hearkenlisten to the words of my servants the prophets, whom I send untoto you, even rising up early and sending them, —but yeyou have not hearkened;listened—
26:6	then I will I make this house like Shiloh, and will make this city a curse to all the nations of the earth.
26:7	AndThe the priests and the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in theYahwehs house of Jehovah.
26:8	AndWhen it came to pass, when Jeremiah had madefinished an end of speaking all that JehovahYahweh had commanded him to speak untoto all the people, that the priests and the prophets and all the people laidseized hold on him, saying, ThouYou shaltshall surely die.!
26:9	Why hasthave thouyou prophesied in theYahwehs name of Jehovah, saying, This house shallwill be like Shiloh, and this city shallwill be desolate, without inhabitant? AndAll all the people were gatheredcrowded untoaround Jeremiah in theYahwehs house of Jehovah.
26:10	AndWhen when the princes of Judah heard these things, they came up from the kings house untoto theYahwehs house of Jehovah; and they sat in the entry of the new gate of JehovahsYahwehs house.
26:11	Then spake the priests and the prophets untospoke to the princes and to all the people, saying, This man is worthy of death;, for he hathhas prophesied against this city, as yeyou have heard with your ears.
26:12	Then spake Jeremiah untospoke to all the princes and to all the people, saying, JehovahYahweh sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city all the words that yeyou have heard.
26:13	Now therefore amend your ways and your doings, and obey theYahweh voiceyour ofGods Jehovah your Godvoice; andthen JehovahYahweh will repentrelent himfrom of the evil that he hathhas pronounced against you.
26:14	But as for me, behold, I am in your hand:. doDo with me aswhat is good and right in your eyes.
26:15	Only know ye for certain that, if yeyou put me to death, yeyou will bring innocent blood uponon yourselves, andon upon this city, and uponon theits inhabitants thereof; for ofin a truth JehovahYahweh hathhas sent me untoto you to speak all these words in your ears.
26:16	Then said the princes and all the people untosaid to the priests and to the prophets: This man is not worthy of death; for he hathhas spoken to us in the name of JehovahYahweh our God.
26:17	Then rose up certain of the elders of the land rose up, and spakespoke to all the assembly of the people, saying,
26:18	Micah the Morashtite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah; and he spakespoke to all the people of Judah, saying, ThusYahweh saithof JehovahArmies of hostssays: Zion shallwill be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shallwill become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest.
26:19	Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him to death? didDidnt he not fear JehovahYahweh, and entreat the favor of JehovahYahweh, and JehovahYahweh repentedrelented him of the evildisaster which he had pronounced against them? ThusWe shouldwould we commit great evil against our own souls. that way!
26:20	AndThere there was also a man thatwho prophesied in theYahwehs name of Jehovah, Uriah the son of Shemaiah of Kiriath jearimJearim; and he prophesied against this city and against this land according to all the words of Jeremiah.
26:21	AndWhen when Jehoiakim the king, with all his mighty men, and all the princes, heard his words, the king sought to put him to death; but when Uriah heard it, he was afraid, and fled, and went into Egypt.
26:22	AndThen Jehoiakim the king sent men into Egypt, namely, Elnathan the son of Achbor, and certain men with him, into Egypt;.
26:23	andThey they fetched forth Uriah out of Egypt, and brought him untoto Jehoiakim the king, who slewkilled him with the sword, and cast his dead body into the graves of the common people.
26:24	But the hand of Ahikam the son of Shaphan was with Jeremiah, so that they shoulddidnt not give him into the hand of the people to put him to death.
27:1	In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, came this word untocame to Jeremiah from JehovahYahweh, saying,
27:2	ThusYahweh saithsays Jehovah to me: Make thee bonds and bars, and put them uponon thyyour neck;.
27:3	andThen send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the children of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Sidon, by the hand of the messengers thatwho come to Jerusalem untoto Zedekiah king of Judah:.
27:4	andGive give them a chargecommand untoto their masters, saying, ThusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel says, ThusYou shall yetell say unto your masters:
27:5	I have made the earth, the men, and the beastsanimals that are uponon the facesurface of the earth, by my great power and by my outstretched arm;. and I give it untoto whom it seemethseems right untoto me.
27:6	AndNow nowI have I given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant;. andI have also given the beastsanimals of the field alsoto have I given him to serve him.
27:7	AndAll all the nations shallwill serve him, and his son, and his sons son, until the time of his own land come:comes. andThen then many nations and great kings shallwill make him their bondmanbondservant.
27:8	AndIt itwill shallhappen comethat toI pass,will thatpunish the nation and the kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, thatsays nation will I punishYahweh, saith Jehovah, with the sword, and with the famine, and with the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand.
27:9	But as for you, hearkendont yelisten not to your prophets, nor to your diviners, nor to your dreams, nor to your soothsayers, noror to your sorcerers, thatwho speak untoto you, saying, YeYou shall not serve the king of Babylon:;
27:10	for they prophesy a lie untoto you, to remove you far from your land, andso that I shouldwould drive you out, and yeyou shouldwould perish.
27:11	But the nation that shallbrings bring their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serveserves him, that nation I will I let remain in their own land, saithsays JehovahYahweh; and they shallwill till it, and dwell thereinin it.
27:12	And I spakespoke to Zedekiah king of Judah according to all these words, saying, Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and live.
27:13	Why will yeyou die, thouyou and thyyour people, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, as JehovahYahweh hathhas spoken concerning the nation that will not serve the king of Babylon?
27:14	AndDont hearkenlisten notto unto the words of the prophets thatwho speak untoto you, saying, YeYou shall not serve the king of Babylon; for they prophesy a lie untoto you.
27:15	For I have not sent them, saithsays JehovahYahweh, but they prophesy falsely in my name; that I may drive you out, and that yeyou may perish, yeyou, and the prophets thatwho prophesy untoto you.
27:16	Also I spakespoke to the priests and to all this people, saying, ThusYahweh saithsays, Jehovah:Dont Hearkenlisten not to the words of your prophets thatwho prophesy untoto you, saying, Behold, the vessels of JehovahsYahwehs house shallwill now shortly be brought again from Babylon; for they prophesy a lie untoto you.
27:17	HearkenDont notlisten untoto them;. serveServe the king of Babylon, and live:. whereforeWhy should this city become a desolation?
27:18	But if they beare prophets, and if theYahwehs word ofis Jehovah be with them, let them now make intercession to JehovahYahweh of hostsArmies, that the vessels which are left in theYahwehs house of Jehovah, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem, dont go not to Babylon.
27:19	For thusYahweh saithof JehovahArmies ofsays hosts concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the residuerest of the vessels that are left in this city,
27:20	which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon tookdidnt not,take when he carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, from Jerusalem to Babylon, and all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem;—
27:21	yeayes, thusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says concerning the vessels that are left in theYahwehs house of Jehovah, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem:
27:22	They shallwill be carried to Babylon, and there shall they will be, until the day that I visit them, saithsays JehovahYahweh; then I will I bring them up, and restore them to this place.
28:1	AndThat it came to pass the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, that Hananiah the son of Azzur, the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spakespoke untoto me in theYahwehs house of Jehovah, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,
28:2	ThusYahweh speaketh Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, sayingsays, I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.
28:3	Within two full years I will I bring again into this place all the vessels of JehovahsYahwehs house, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place, and carried to Babylon:.
28:4	and I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, thatwho went to Babylon, saithsays JehovahYahweh; for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.
28:5	Then the prophet Jeremiah said untoto the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people thatwho stood in theYahwehs house of Jehovah,
28:6	even the prophet Jeremiah said, Amen:! JehovahMay Yahweh do so;. JehovahMay Yahweh perform thyyour words which thouyou hasthave prophesied, to bring again the vessels of JehovahsYahwehs house, and all themthose ofwho theare captivitycaptives, from Babylon untoto this place.
28:7	Nevertheless hearlisten thou now to this word that I speak in thineyour ears, and in the ears of all the people:
28:8	The prophets thatwho have been before me and before theeyou of old prophesied against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war, and of evil, and of pestilence.
28:9	TheAs for the prophet thatwho prophesiethprophesies of peace, when the word of the prophet shall come to passhappens, then shall the prophet will be known, that JehovahYahweh hathhas truly sent him.
28:10	Then Hananiah the prophet took the bar from off the prophet Jeremiahs neck, and brakebroke it.
28:11	And Hananiah spakespoke in the presence of all the people, saying, ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: Even so I will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon within two full years from off the neck of all the nations within two full years. AndThen the prophet Jeremiah went his way.
28:12	Then theYahwehs word of Jehovah came untoto Jeremiah, after that Hananiah the prophet had broken the bar from off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying,
28:13	Go, and tell Hananiah, saying, ThusYahweh saithsays, Jehovah:You Thouhave hast broken the bars of wood;, but thouyou hasthave made in their steadplace bars of iron.
28:14	For thusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel: says, I have put a yoke of iron uponon the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they shallwill serve him:. and I have also given him the beastsanimals of the field also.
28:15	Then said the prophet Jeremiah untosaid to Hananiah the prophet, Hear nowListen, Hananiah:! JehovahYahweh hathhas not sent thee;you, but thouyou makestmake this people to trust in a lie.
28:16	Therefore thusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, Behold, I will send theeyou away from off the facesurface of the earth:. thisThis year thouyou shaltwill die, because thouyou hasthave spoken rebellion against JehovahYahweh.
29:1	Now these are the words of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem untoto the residue of the elders of the captivity, and to the priests, and to the prophets, and to all the people, whom Nebuchadnezzar had carried away captive from Jerusalem to Babylon,
29:2	after that Jeconiah the king, and the queen mother, and the eunuchs, and the princes of Judah and Jerusalem, and the craftsmen, and the smiths, werehad departed from Jerusalem,
29:3	by the hand of Elasah the son of Shaphan, and Gemariah the son of Hilkiah, whom Zedekiah king of Judah sent untoto Babylon to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon,. saying,It said:
29:4	ThusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, untosays to all the captivity,captives whom I have caused to be carried away captive from Jerusalem untoto Babylon:
29:5	Build ye houses, and dwell in them;. andPlant plant gardens, and eat thetheir fruit of them.
29:6	Take ye wives, and begetfather sons and daughters;. andTake take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, that they may bear sons and daughters:. andMultiply multiply ye there, and dont be not diminished.
29:7	AndSeek seek the peace of the city whitherwhere I have caused you to be carried away captive, and pray untoto JehovahYahweh for it; for in theits peace thereofyou shallwill ye have peace.
29:8	For thusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel says: LetDont notlet your prophets thatwho are inamong the midst of you, and your diviners, deceive you;. neitherDont hearkenlisten ye to your dreams which yeyou cause to be dreamed.
29:9	For they prophesy falsely untoto you in my name:. I have not sent them, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
29:10	For thusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, After seventy years are accomplished for Babylon, I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place.
29:11	For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saithsays JehovahYahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope inand youra latter endfuture.
29:12	AndYou ye shall call uponon me, and yeyou shall go and pray untoto me, and I will hearkenlisten untoto you.
29:13	AndYou ye shall seek me, and find me, when yeyou shall search for me with all your heart.
29:14	And I will be found ofby you, saithsays JehovahYahweh, and I will turn again your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whitherwhere I have driven you, saithsays Jehovah;Yahweh. and I will bring you again untoto the place whencefrom where I caused you to be carried away captive.
29:15	Because yeyou have said, JehovahYahweh hathhas raised us up prophets in Babylon;,
29:16	thusYahweh saithsays Jehovah concerning the king thatwho sittethsits uponon theDavids throne of David, and concerning all the people thatwho dwell in this city, your brethrenbrothers thatwho arehavent not gone forth with you into captivity;,
29:17	thusYahweh saithof JehovahArmies of hostssays: Behold, I will send uponon them the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like vilerotten figs, that cannotcant be eaten, they are so bad.
29:18	And I will pursue after them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be tossed toback and froforth among all the kingdoms of the earth, to be an execrationobject of horror, and an astonishment, and a hissing, and a reproach, among all the nations whitherwhere I have driven them;,
29:19	because they have not hearkenedlistened to my words, saithsays JehovahYahweh, wherewithwith which I sent untoto them my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them; but yeyou would not hear, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
29:20	Hear ye therefore theYahwehs word of Jehovah, all yeyou ofcaptives the captivity, whom I have sent away from Jerusalem to Babylon.
29:21	ThusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says concerning Ahab the son of Kolaiah, and concerning Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, who prophesy a lie untoto you in my name: Behold, I will deliver them into the hand of NebuchadrezzarNebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and he shallwill slaykill them before your eyes;.
29:22	andA ofcurse themwill shall be taken up aabout cursethem by all the captives of Judah thatwho are in Babylon, saying, JehovahYahweh make theeyou like Zedekiah and like Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire;
29:23	because they have wroughtdone follyfoolish things in Israel, and have committed adultery with their neighbors wives, and have spoken words in my name falsely, which I commandeddidnt command them. not; and I am he thatwho knowethknows, and am witness, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
29:24	AndConcerning concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite thouyou shaltshall speak, saying,
29:25	ThusYahweh speaketh Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, sayingsays, Because thouyou hasthave sent letters in thineyour own name untoto all the people thatwho are at Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, and to all the priests, saying,
29:26	JehovahYahweh hathhas made theeyou priest in the steadplace of Jehoiada the priest, that there may be officers in theYahwehs house of Jehovah, for every man thatwho is mad,crazy and makethmakes himself a prophet, that thouyou shouldestshould put him in the stocks and in shackles.
29:27	Now therefore, why hasthave thouyou not rebuked Jeremiah of Anathoth, who makethmakes himself a prophet to you,
29:28	forasmuchbecause as he hathhas sent untoto us in Babylon, saying, The captivity is long:. buildBuild ye houses, and dwell in them;. andPlant plant gardens, and eat thetheir fruit of them?
29:29	And Zephaniah the priest read this letter in the earshearing of Jeremiah the prophet.
29:30	Then cameYahwehs the word ofcame Jehovahto unto Jeremiah, saying,
29:31	Send to all them of the captivitycaptives, saying, ThusYahweh saithsays Jehovah concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite: Because that Shemaiah hathhas prophesied untoto you, and I sentdidnt send him not, and he hathhas caused you to trust in a lie;,
29:32	therefore thusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, Behold, I will punish Shemaiah the Nehelamite, and his seed;offspring. heHe shallwill not have a man to dwell among this people,. neitherHe shallwont hesee behold the good that I will do untoto my people, saithsays JehovahYahweh, because he hathhas spoken rebellion against JehovahYahweh.
30:1	The word that came to Jeremiah from JehovahYahweh, saying,

30:3	For, lobehold, the days come, saithsays JehovahYahweh, that I will turnreverse again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saithsays Jehovah;Yahweh. and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shallwill possess it.
30:4	AndThese these are the words that JehovahYahweh spakespoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah.
30:5	For thusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: We have heard a voice of trembling,; a voice of fear, and not of peace.
30:6	Ask ye now, and see whether a man dothtravails travail with child:. whereforeWhy do I see every man with his hands on his loinswaist, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into palenesspale?
30:7	Alas!, for that day is great, so that none is like it:! itIt is even the time of Jacobs trouble; but he shallwill be saved out of it.
30:8	AndIt itwill shall come to pass in that day, saithsays JehovahYahweh of hostsArmies, that I will break his yoke from off thyyour neck, and will burst thyyour bonds;. andStrangers strangerswill shall no more make himthem their bondmanbondservants;
30:9	but they shallwill serve JehovahYahweh their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up untoto them.

32:1	TheThis is the word that came to Jeremiah from JehovahYahweh in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of NebuchadrezzarNebuchadnezzar.
32:2	Now at that time the king of Babylons army was besieging Jerusalem;. and Jeremiah the prophet was shut up in the court of the guard, which was in the king of Judahs house.
32:3	For Zedekiah king of Judah had shut him up, saying, WhereforeWhy dostdo thouyou prophesy, and say, ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shallwill take it;
32:4	and Zedekiah king of Judah shallwont not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, but shallwill surely be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon, and shallwill speak with him mouth to mouth, and his eyes shallwill beholdsee his eyes;
32:5	and he shallwill bring Zedekiah to Babylon, and therehe shallwill he be there until I visit him, saithsays Jehovah:Yahweh, though yeyou fight with the Chaldeans, yeyou shallwill not prosper?
32:6	And Jeremiah said, TheYahwehs word of Jehovah came untoto me, saying,
32:7	Behold, Hanamel the son of Shallum thineyour uncle shallwill come untoto theeyou, saying, Buy thee my field that is in Anathoth; for the right of redemption is thineyours to buy it.
32:8	So Hanamel minemy uncles son came to me in the court of the guard according to theYahwehs word of Jehovah, and said untoto me, BuyPlease buy my field, I pray thee, that is in Anathoth, which is in the land of Benjamin; for the right of inheritance is thineyours, and the redemption is thine;yours. buyBuy it for thyselfyourself. Then I knew that this was theYahwehs word of Jehovah.
32:9	And I bought the field that was in Anathoth of Hanamel minemy uncles son, and weighed him the money, even seventeen shekels of silver.
32:10	And I subscribedsigned the deed, and sealed it, and called witnesses, and weighed him the money in the balances to him.
32:11	So I took the deed of the purchase, both that which was sealed, accordingcontaining to the lawterms and customconditions, and that which was open:;
32:12	and I delivered the deed of the purchase untoto Baruch the son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, in the presence of Hanamel minemy uncles son, and in the presence of the witnesses thatwho subscribedsigned the deed of the purchase, before all the Jews thatwho sat in the court of the guard.
32:13	And I chargedcommanded Baruch before them, saying,
32:14	ThusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says: Take these deeds, this deed of the purchase which is sealed, and this deed which is open, and put them in an earthen vessel;, that they may continuelast many days.
32:15	For thusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel says: Houses and fields and vineyards shallwill yet again be bought in this land.
32:16	Now after I had delivered the deed of the purchase untoto Baruch the son of Neriah, I prayed untoto JehovahYahweh, saying,
32:17	Ah Lord JehovahYahweh! beholdBehold, thouyou hasthave made the heavens and the earth by thyyour great power and by thineyour outstretched arm;. thereThere is nothing too hard for thee,you.
32:18	whoYou showestshow lovingkindnessloving untokindness to thousands, and recompensestrepay the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them;. theThe great, the mighty God, JehovahYahweh of hostsArmies is hisyour name;:
32:19	great in counsel, and mighty in work; whose eyes are open uponto all the ways of the sonschildren of men, to give everyeveryone one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings;
32:20	who didstperformed set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, even untoto this day, both in Israel and among other men; and madestmade theeyourself a name, as atit thisis daytoday;
32:21	and didstbrought bringyour forth thy people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terror;
32:22	and gavestgave them this land, which thouyou didstswore swear to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey;.
32:23	andThey they came in, and possessed it;, but they obeyeddidnt notobey thyyour voice, neitherand walkeddidnt walk in thyyour law;. theyThey have done nothing of all that thouyou commandedstcommanded them to do:. thereforeTherefore thouyou hasthave caused all this evil to come upon them.
32:24	Behold, thesiege mounds,ramps theyhave arebeen comebuilt untoagainst the city to take it;. andThe the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans thatwho fight against it, because of the sword, and of the famine, and of the pestilence;. andWhat whatyou thouhave hast spoken ishas comehappened. to pass; andBehold, behold,you thousee seest it.
32:25	AndYou thouhave hast said untoto me, O Lord JehovahYahweh, Buy thee the field for money, and call witnesses; whereas the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.
32:26	Then cameYahwehs the word ofcame Jehovahto unto Jeremiah, saying,
32:27	Behold, I am JehovahYahweh, the God of all flesh:. isIs there anything too hard for me?
32:28	Therefore thusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of NebuchadrezzarNebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he shallwill take it:.
32:29	andThe the Chaldeans, thatwho fight against this city, shallwill come and set this city on fire, and burn it, with the houses, uponon whose roofs they have offered incense untoto Baal, and poured out drink offerings untoto other gods, to provoke me to anger.
32:30	For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have done only that which was evil in my sight from their youth; for the children of Israel have only provoked me to anger with the work of their hands, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
32:31	For this city hathhas been to me a provocation of minemy anger and of my wrath from the day that they built it even untoto this day;, so that I should remove it from before my face,
32:32	because of all the evil of the children of Israel and of the children of Judah, which they have done to provoke me to anger, —they, their kings, their princes, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
32:33	AndThey they have turned untotheir mebacks theto backme, and not thetheir face:faces. andAlthough though I taught them, rising up early and teaching them, yet they have not hearkenedlistened to receive instruction.
32:35	AndThey they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire untoto Molech;, which I commandeddidnt command them. not,It neitherdidnt cameeven itcome into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.
32:36	AndNow now therefore thus saith JehovahYahweh, the God of Israel, says concerning this city, whereofabout yewhich you say, It is given into the hand of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence:
32:37	Behold, I will gather them out of all the countries, whitherwhere I have driven them in minemy anger, and in my wrath, and in great indignation; and I will bring them again untoto this place,. and I will cause them to dwell safely.
32:38	AndThen they shallwill be my people, and I will be their God:.
32:39	and I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear me for everforever, for thetheir good ofand them,the andgood of their children after them:.
32:40	and I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from following them, to do them good;. and I will put my fear in their hearts, that they may not depart from me.
32:41	YeaYes, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart and with my whole soul.
32:42	For thusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: LikeJust as I have brought all this great evil uponon this people, so I will I bring uponon them all the good that I have promised them.
32:43	AndFields fieldswill shall be bought in this land, whereofabout yewhich you say, It is desolate, without man or beast;animal. itIt is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.
32:44	Men shallwill buy fields for money, andsign subscribe the deeds, and seal them, and call witnesses, in the land of Benjamin, and in the places aboutaround Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, and in the cities of the hill country, and in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the South:; for I will cause their captivity to returnbe reversed, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
33:1	Moreover theYahwehs word of Jehovah came untoto Jeremiah the second time, while he was yetstill shutlocked up in the court of the guard, saying,
33:2	ThusYahweh saithwho Jehovahdoes that doeth it, JehovahYahweh thatwho formethforms it to establish it;—Yahweh Jehovah is his name, says:
33:3	Call untoto me, and I will answer theeyou, and will show theeyou great things, and difficult things, which thouyou knowestdont notknow.
33:4	For thus saith JehovahYahweh, the God of Israel, says concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are broken down to make a defencedefense against the mounds and against the sword;:
33:5	whileWhile men come to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the dead bodies of men, whom I have slainkilled in minemy anger and in my wrath, and for all whose wickedness I have hidhidden my face from this city:,
33:6	Beholdbehold, I will bring it health and curehealing, and I will cure them; and I will reveal untoto them abundance of peace and truth.
33:7	And I will causerestore the captivityfortunes of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them, as at the first.
33:8	And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, wherebyby which they have sinned against me;. and I will pardon all their iniquities, wherebyby which they have sinned against me, and wherebyby which they have transgressed against me.
33:9	AndThis this city shallwill be to me for a name of joy, for a praise, and for a glory, before all the nations of the earth, which shallwill hear all the good that I do untoto them, and shallwill fear and tremble for all the good and for all the peace that I procureprovide untoto it.
33:10	ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: Yet again there shallwill be heard in this place, whereofabout yewhich you say, It is waste, without man and without beastanimal, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man and without inhabitant and without beastanimal,
33:11	the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the voice of themthose thatwho say, Give thanks to JehovahYahweh of hostsArmies, for JehovahYahweh is good, for his lovingkindnessloving endurethkindness forendures everforever; andwho of them that bring sacrifices of thanksgiving into theYahwehs house of Jehovah. For I will cause the captivity of the land to returnbe reversed as at the first, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
33:12	ThusYahweh saithof JehovahArmies of hostssays: Yet again shall there will be in this place, which is waste, without man and without beastanimal, and in all theits cities thereof, a habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
33:13	In the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the lowland, and in the cities of the South, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places aboutaround Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks will again pass under the hands of him thatwho numberethcounts them, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
33:14	Behold, the days come, saithsays JehovahYahweh, that I will perform that good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and concerning the house of Judah.
33:15	In those days, and at that time, I will I cause a Branch of righteousness to grow up untoto David;. andHe hewill shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
33:16	In those days shall Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem shallwill dwell safely;. andThis this is the name wherebyby which she shallwill be called: JehovahYahweh our righteousness.
33:17	For thusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: David shallwill never wantlack a man to sit uponon the throne of the house of Israel;.
33:18	neitherThe shallLevitical the priests thewont Leviteslack want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to burn meal offerings, and to do sacrifice continually.
33:19	AndYahwehs the word of Jehovah came untoto Jeremiah, saying,
33:20	ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: If yeyou can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, so that there shallwill not be day and night in their season;time,
33:21	then may also my covenant could also be broken with David my servant, that he shallwont not have a son to reign uponon his throne; and with the LevitesLevitical the priests, my ministers.
33:22	As the hostarmy of heaventhe cannotsky cant be numberedcounted, neitherand the sand of the sea cant be measured;, so I will I multiply the seedoffspring of David my servant, and the Levites thatwho minister untoto me.
33:23	AndYahwehs the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, saying,
33:24	ConsiderestDont thouconsider not what this people havehas spoken, saying, TheHas Yahweh cast off the two families which Jehovah did choose, he hath cast them offchose? thusThus do they despise my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.
33:25	ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: If my covenant of day and night stand notfails, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;,
33:26	then I will I also cast away the seedoffspring of Jacob, and of David my servant, so that I will not take of his seedoffspring to be rulers over the seedoffspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob:; for I will cause their captivity to return,be reversed and will have mercy on them.
34:1	The word which came untoto Jeremiah from JehovahYahweh, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, andwith all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth that were under his dominion, and all the peoples, were fighting against Jerusalem, and against all theits cities thereof, saying:
34:2	Thus saith JehovahYahweh, the God of Israel, says, Go, and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shallwill burn it with fire:.
34:3	andYou thouwont shalt not escape out of his hand, but shaltwill surely be taken, and delivered into his hand;. andYour thine eyes shallwill beholdsee the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he shallwill speak with theeyou mouth to mouth,. andYou thouwill shalt go to Babylon.
34:4	Yet hear theYahwehs word of Jehovah, O Zedekiah king of Judah:. thusYahweh saithsays Jehovah concerning theeyou, ThouYou shaltwont not die by the sword;.
34:5	thouYou shaltwill die in peace; and with the burnings of thyyour fathers, the former kings thatwho were before theeyou, so shall they will make a burning for thee;you. andThey theywill shall lament theeyou, saying, Ah Lord! for I have spoken the word, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
34:6	Then Jeremiah the prophet spakespoke all these words untoto Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem,
34:7	when the king of Babylons army was fighting against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish and against Azekah; for these alone remained of the cities of Judah as fortified cities.
34:8	The word that came untoto Jeremiah from JehovahYahweh, after thatKing the king Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people thatwho were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty untoto them;,
34:9	that every man should let his manmale servant, and every man his maidfemale servant, thatwho is a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, go free;, that noneno one should make bondmenbondservants of them, to wit, of a Jew his brother.
34:10	AndAll all the princes and all the people obeyed, thatwho had entered into the covenant, that everyeveryone one should let his manmale servant, and everyeveryone one his maidfemale servant, go free, that noneno one should make bondmenbondservants of them any more;. theyThey obeyed, and let them go:,
34:11	but afterwards they turned, and caused the servants and the handmaids, whom they had let go free, to return, and brought them into subjection for servants and for handmaids.
34:12	Therefore theYahwehs word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah from JehovahYahweh, saying,
34:13	Thus saith JehovahYahweh, the God of Israel, says: I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying,:
34:14	At the end of seven years, yeevery shallman letof goyou everyshall manrelease his brother thatwho is a Hebrew, thatwho hathhas been sold untoto theeyou, and hathhas served theeyou six years,. thouYou shaltshall let him go free from thee:you. butBut your fathers hearkeneddidnt notlisten untoto me, neitherand inclineddidnt incline their ear.
34:15	AndYou yehad were now turned, and had done that which is right in minemy eyes, in every man proclaiming liberty every man to his neighbor;. andYou ye had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name:;
34:16	but yeyou turned and profaned my name, and caused every man caused his servant, and every man his handmaid, whom yeyou had let go free at their pleasure, to return;. andYou ye brought them into subjection, to be untoto you for servants and for handmaids.
34:17	Therefore thusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: YeYou have not hearkenedlistened untoto me, to proclaim liberty, every man to his brother, and every man to his neighbor:. beholdBehold, I proclaim untoto you a liberty, saithsays JehovahYahweh, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine;. and I will make you to be tossed toback and froforth among all the kingdoms of the earth.
34:18	And I will give the men thatwho have transgressed my covenant, thatwho have not performed the words of the covenant which they made before me, when they cut the calf in twaintwo and passed between theits parts thereof;:
34:19	the princes of Judah, and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land, thatwho passed between the parts of the calf;.
34:20	I will even give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of themthose thatwho seek their life;. andTheir their dead bodies shallwill be for food untofor the birds of the heavens,sky and tofor the beastsanimals of the earth.
34:21	AndI will give Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes will I give into the handhands of their enemies, and into the handhands of themthose thatwho seek their life, and into the handhands of the king of Babylons army, thatwho arehas gone away from you.
34:22	Behold, I will command, saithsays JehovahYahweh, and cause them to return to this city;. andThey theywill shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire:. and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.
35:1	The word which came untoto Jeremiah from JehovahYahweh in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying,
35:2	Go untoto the house of the Rechabites, and speak untoto them, and bring them into theYahwehs house of Jehovah, into one of the chambersrooms, and give them wine to drink.
35:3	Then I took Jaazaniah the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habazziniah, andwith his brethrenbrothers, and all his sons, and the whole house of the Rechabites;
35:4	and I brought them into theYahwehs house of Jehovah, into the chamberroom of the sons of Hanan the son of Igdaliah, the man of God, which was by the chamberroom of the princes, which was above the chamberroom of Maaseiah the son of Shallum, the keeper of the threshold.
35:5	And I set before the sons of the house of the Rechabites bowls full of wine, and cups; and I said untoto them, Drink ye wine.!
35:6	But they said, We will drink no wine; for Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, commanded us, saying, YeYou shall drink no wine, neither ye,you nor your sonschildren, for ever:forever.
35:7	neitherYou shall yenot build a house, nor sow seed, nor plant a vineyard, noror have any; but all your days yeyou shall dwell in tents;, that yeyou may live many days in the land whereinin yewhich sojournyou live as nomads.
35:8	AndWe we have obeyed the voice of Jonadab the son of Rechab, our father, in all that he chargedcommanded us, to drink no wine all our days, we, our wives, our sons, or our daughters;
35:9	norand not to build houses for usourselves to dwell in;. neitherWe have weno vineyard, nor field, noror seed:;
35:10	but we have dweltlived in tents, and have obeyed, and done according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.
35:11	But it came to pass, when NebuchadrezzarNebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up into the land, that we said, Come,! andLets let us go to Jerusalem for fear of the army of the Chaldeans, and for fear of the army of the Syrians; so we will dwell at Jerusalem.
35:12	Then cameYahwehs the word ofcame Jehovahto unto Jeremiah, saying,
35:13	ThusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says: Go, and saytell to the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, Will yeyou not receive instruction to hearkenlisten to my words? saithsays JehovahYahweh.
35:14	The words of Jonadab the son of Rechab, that he commanded his sons, not to drink wine, are performed; and untoto this day they drink none, for they obey their fathers commandment.; Butbut I have spoken untoto you, rising up early and speaking;, and yeyou have not hearkenedlistened untoto me.
35:15	I have sent also untoto you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, ReturnEvery yeone nowof everyyou manmust return now from his evil way, and amend your doings, and dont go not after other gods to serve them,. andThen yeyou shallwill dwell in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers:; but yeyou have not inclined your ear, nor hearkenedlistened untoto me.
35:16	ForasmuchThe as the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have performed the commandment of their father which he commanded them, but this people hathhas not hearkenedlistened untoto me;.
35:17	thereforeTherefore thus saith JehovahYahweh, the God of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says: Behold, I will bring uponon Judah and uponon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced against them;, because I have spoken untoto them, but they have not heard; and I have called untoto them, but they have not answered.
35:18	And Jeremiah said untoto the house of the Rechabites, ThusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says: Because yeyou have obeyed the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according untoto all that he commanded you;,
35:19	therefore thusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says: Jonadab the son of Rechab shallwill not wantlack a man to stand before me for everforever.
36:1	AndIn it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, that this word came untoto Jeremiah from JehovahYahweh, saying,
36:2	Take thee a rollscroll of a book, and write thereinin it all the words that I have spoken untoto theeyou against Israel, and against Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spakespoke untoto theeyou, from the days of Josiah, even untoto this day.
36:3	It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purposeintend to do untoto them;, that they may each return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.
36:4	Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah; and Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all theYahwehs words of Jehovah, which he had spoken untoto him, uponon a rollscroll of a book.
36:5	And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shutrestricted. up; I cannotcant go into theYahwehs house of Jehovah:.
36:6	thereforeTherefore you go thou, and read infrom the roll,scroll which thouyou hasthave written from my mouth, theYahwehs words, of Jehovah in the ears of the people in JehovahsYahwehs house uponon the fast day;. andAlso alsoyou thoushall shalt read them in the ears of all Judah thatwho come out of their cities.
36:7	It may be they will present their supplication before JehovahYahweh, and will each return every one from his evil way; for greatYahweh ishas thepronounced great anger and the wrath that Jehovah hath pronounced against this people.
36:8	And Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, reading in the book theYahwehs words of Jehovah in JehovahsYahwehs house.
36:9	Now it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the ninth month, that all the people in Jerusalem, and all the people thatwho came from the cities of Judah untoto Jerusalem, proclaimed a fast before JehovahYahweh.
36:10	Then read Baruch inread the book the words of Jeremiah infrom the housebook ofin JehovahYahwehs house, in the chamberroom of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the upper court, at the entry of the new gate of JehovahsYahwehs house, in the ears of all the people.
36:11	AndWhen when Micaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the book all theYahwehs words of Jehovah,
36:12	he went down into the kings house, into the scribes chamber:room; and, lobehold, all the princes were sitting there, to wit, Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the son of Achbor, and Gemariah the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.
36:13	Then Micaiah declared untoto them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the book in the ears of the people.
36:14	Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, untoto Baruch, saying, Take in thyyour hand the rollscroll whereinin thouwhich hastyou have read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah took the rollscroll in his hand, and came untoto them.
36:15	AndThey they said untoto him, Sit down now, and read it in our earshearing. So Baruch read it in their earshearing.
36:16	Now it came to pass, when they had heard all the words, they turned in fear one toward another, and said untoto Baruch, We will surely tell the king of all these words.
36:17	AndThey they asked Baruch, saying, Tell us now, Howhow didstdid thouyou write all these words at his mouth?
36:18	Then Baruch answered them, He pronounceddictated all these words untoto me with his mouth, and I wrote them with ink in the book.
36:19	Then said the princes untosaid to Baruch, Go,You hideand thee,Jeremiah thougo andhide. Jeremiah;Dont and let noanyone man know where yeyou are.
36:20	AndThey they went in to the king into the court;, but they had laid up the rollscroll in the chamberroom of Elishama the scribe;. andThen they told all the words in the earshearing of the king.
36:21	So the king sent Jehudi to fetchget the roll;scroll, and he took it out of the chamberroom of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi read it in the earshearing of the king, and in the earshearing of all the princes thatwho stood beside the king.
36:22	Now the king was sitting in the winter house in the ninth month:, and there was a fire in the brazier burning before him.
36:23	AndWhen it came to pass, when Jehudi had read three or four leavescolumns, that the king cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was in the brazier, until all the rollscroll was consumed in the fire that was in the brazier.
36:24	AndThe theyking wereand nothis afraid,servants norwho rentheard theirall garments,these neitherwords thewere kingnot afraid, norand anydidnt oftear histheir servants that heard all these wordsgarments.
36:25	Moreover Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the rollscroll; but he would not hearlisten to them.
36:26	AndThe the king commanded Jerahmeel the kings son, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to takearrest Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet; but JehovahYahweh hid them.
36:27	Then theYahwehs word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the rollscroll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying,
36:28	Take thee again another rollscroll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first rollscroll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hathhas burned.
36:29	AndConcerning concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah thouyou shaltshall say, ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays: ThouYou hasthave burned this rollscroll, saying, Why hasthave thouyou written therein, saying, The king of Babylon shallwill certainly come and destroy this land, and shallwill cause to cease from thencethere man and beastanimal?
36:30	Therefore thusYahweh saithsays Jehovah concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: He shallwill have noneno one to sit uponon theDavids throne. ofHis David; and his dead body shallwill be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
36:31	And I will punish him, and his seedoffspring, and his servants for their iniquity;. and I will bring uponon them, andon upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and uponon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them, but they hearkeneddidnt notlisten.
36:32	Then Jeremiah took Jeremiah another rollscroll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah, who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire; and theremany similar words were added besidesto unto them many like words.
37:1	And Zedekiah the son of Josiah reigned as king, instead of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim, whom NebuchadrezzarNebuchadnezzar king of Babylon made king in the land of Judah.
37:2	But neither he, nor his servants, nor the people of the land, didlistened hearkento untoYahwehs the words of Jehovah, which he spakespoke by the prophet Jeremiah.
37:3	And Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, Pray now untoto JehovahYahweh our God for us.
37:4	Now Jeremiah came in and went out among the people;, for they had not put him into prison.
37:5	And Pharaohs army washad come forth out of Egypt; and when the Chaldeans thatwho were besieging Jerusalem heard tidingsnews of them, they brakewithdrew up from Jerusalem.
37:6	Then cameYahwehs the word ofcame Jehovahto unto the prophet Jeremiah, saying,
37:7	Thus saith JehovahYahweh, the God of Israel, Thussays, You shall yetell say to the king of Judah, thatwho sent you untoto me to inquire of me: Behold, Pharaohs army, which ishas come forthout to help you, shallwill return to Egypt into their own land.
37:8	AndThe the Chaldeans shallwill come again, and fight against this city;. andThey theywill shall take it, and burn it with fire.
37:9	ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, DeceiveDont notdeceive yourselves, saying, The Chaldeans shallwill surely depart from us; for they shallwill not depart.
37:10	For though yeyou had smittenstruck the whole army of the Chaldeans thatwho fight against you, and thereonly remained but wounded men remained among them, yetthey would theyeach rise up every man in his tent, and burn this city with fire.
37:11	AndWhen it came to pass that, when the army of the Chaldeans washad brokenwithdrawn up from Jerusalem for fear of Pharaohs army,
37:12	then Jeremiah went forth out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin, to receive his portion there, in the midstmiddle of the people.
37:13	AndWhen when he was in theBenjamins gate of Benjamin, a captain of the wardguard was there, whose name was Irijah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah; and he laidseized hold on Jeremiah the prophet, saying, ThouYou artare fallingdefecting away to the Chaldeans.!
37:14	Then Jeremiah said Jeremiah, ItThat is false;! I am not fallingdefecting away to the Chaldeans. But he hearkeneddidnt notlisten to him; so Irijah laidseized hold on Jeremiah, and brought him to the princes.
37:15	AndThe the princes were wrothangry with Jeremiah, and smotestruck him, and put him in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe; for they had made that the prison.
37:16	When Jeremiah washad come into the dungeon house, and into the cells, and Jeremiah had remained there many days;,
37:17	then Zedekiah the king sent, and fetchedhad him: andbrought theout. The king asked him secretly in his house, and said, Is there any word from JehovahYahweh? And Jeremiah said, There is. He also said also, ThouYou shaltwill be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon.
37:18	Moreover Jeremiah said untoto kingKing Zedekiah, WhereinHow have I sinned against theeyou, or against thyyour servants, or against this people, that yeyou have put me in prison?
37:19	WhereNow nowwhere are your prophets thatwho prophesied untoto you, saying, The king of Babylon shallwill not come against you, nor against this land?
37:20	AndNow nowplease hear, I pray thee, O my Lord the king: please let my supplication, I pray thee, be presented before theeyou, that thouyou not cause me not to return to the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there.
37:21	Then Zedekiah the king commanded, and they committed Jeremiah into the court of the guard;. andThey they gave him daily a loaf of bread out of the bakers street, until all the bread in the city was spentgone. Thus Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard.
38:1	And Shephatiah the son of Mattan, and Gedaliah the son of Pashhur, and Jucal the son of Shelemiah, and Pashhur the son of Malchijah, heard the words that Jeremiah spakespoke untoto all the people, saying,
38:2	ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, He thatwho abidethremains in this city shallwill die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence;, but he thatwho goethgoes forthout to the Chaldeans shallwill live,. andHe hiswill lifeescape shallwith behis untolife him for a prey, and he shallwill live.
38:3	ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, This city shallwill surely be given into the hand of the army of the king of Babylon, and he shallwill take it.
38:4	Then the princes said untoto the king, LetPlease let this man, we pray thee, be put to death;, forasmuchbecause as he weakenethweakens the hands of the men of war thatwho remain in this city, and the hands of all the people, in speaking such words untoto them:; for this man seekethdoesnt notseek the welfare of this people, but the hurtharm.
38:5	And Zedekiah the king said, Behold, he is in your hand; for the king iscant not he that can do anything againstto oppose you.
38:6	Then they took they Jeremiah, and castthrew him into the dungeon of Malchijah the kings son, that was in the court of the guard:. andThey they let down Jeremiah with cords. AndIn in the dungeon there was no water, but mire; and Jeremiah sank in the mire.
38:7	Now when EbedEbedmelech melech the Ethiopian, a eunuch, who was in the kings house, heard that they had put Jeremiah in the dungeon the king was then sitting in theBenjamins gate of Benjamin,
38:8	EbedEbedmelech melech went forth out of the kings house, and spakespoke to the king, saying,
38:9	My Lord the king, these men have done evil in all that they have done to Jeremiah the prophet, whom they have cast into the dungeon;. andHe he is likelikely to die in the place where he is, because of the famine; for there is no more bread in the city.
38:10	Then the king commanded EbedEbedmelech melech the Ethiopian, saying, Take from hencehere thirty men with theeyou, and take up Jeremiah the prophet out of the dungeon, before he diedies.
38:11	So EbedEbedmelech melech took the men with him, and went into the house of the king under the treasury, and took thencefrom there rags and worn out garments, and let them down by cords into the dungeon to Jeremiah.
38:12	AndEbedmelech Ebed melech the Ethiopian said untoto Jeremiah, PutNow nowput these rags and worn out garments under thineyour armholesarmpits under the cords. And Jeremiah did so.
38:13	So they drewlifted Jeremiah up Jeremiah with the cords, and took him up out of the dungeon:; and Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard.
38:14	Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took Jeremiah the prophet untoto himhimself into the third entry that is in theYahwehs house. ofThen Jehovah: and the king said untoto Jeremiah, I will ask theeyou asomething. thing;Hide hide nothing from me.
38:15	Then Jeremiah said untoto Zedekiah, If I declare it untoto theeyou, wiltwill thouyou not surely put me to death? andIf if I give theeyou counsel, thouyou wiltwill not hearkenlisten untoto me.
38:16	So Zedekiah the king swareswore secretly untoto Jeremiah, saying, As JehovahYahweh livethlives, thatwho made usour this soulsouls, I will not put theeyou to death, neither will I give theeyou into the hand of these men thatwho seek thyyour life.
38:17	Then Jeremiah said Jeremiahto unto Zedekiah, Thus saith JehovahYahweh, the God of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says: If thouyou wiltwill go forthout untoto the king of Babylons princes, then thyyour soul shallwill live, and this city shallwill not be burned with fire;. andYou thouwill shalt live, andalong thywith your house.
38:18	But if thouyou wiltwill not go forthout to the king of Babylons princes, then shall this city will be given into the hand of the Chaldeans, and they shallwill burn it with fire, and thouyou shaltwont not escape out of their hand.
38:19	And Zedekiah the king said untoto Jeremiah, I am afraid of the Jews thatwho arehave fallendefected away to the Chaldeans, lest they deliver me into their hand, and they mock me.
38:20	But Jeremiah said, They shallwont not deliver theeyou. Obey, I beseechbeg theeyou, theYahwehs voice of Jehovah, in that which I speak untoto thee:you; so it shallwill be well with theeyou, and thyyour soul shallwill live.
38:21	But if thouyou refuse to go forthout, this is the word that JehovahYahweh hathhas showedshown me:
38:22	Behold, all the women thatwho are left in the king of Judahs house shallwill be brought forthout to the king of Babylons princes, and those women shallwill say, ThyYour familiar friends have setturned theeon onyou, and have prevailed over thee:you. nowYour that thy feet are sunk in the mire, they arehave turned away backfrom you.
38:23	AndThey theywill shall bring out all thyyour wives and thyyour children to the Chaldeans;. andYou thouwont shalt not escape out of their hand, but shaltwill be taken by the hand of the king of Babylon:. andYou thouwill shalt cause this city to be burned with fire.
38:24	Then Zedekiah said Zedekiahto unto Jeremiah, Let no man know of these words, and thouyou shaltwont not die.
38:25	But if the princes hear that I have talked with theeyou, and they come untoto theeyou, and saytell unto theeyou, Declare untoto us now what thouyou hasthave said untoto the king; dont hide it not from us, and we will not put theeyou to death; also tell us what the king said untoto thee:you;
38:26	then thouyou shaltshall saytell unto them, I presented my supplication before the king, that he would not cause me to return to Jonathans house, to die there.
38:27	Then came all the princes untocame to Jeremiah, and asked him; and he told them according to all these words that the king had commanded. So they leftstopped off speaking with him;, for the matter was not perceived.
38:28	So Jeremiah abodestayed in the court of the guard until the day that Jerusalem was taken. And it came to pass when Jerusalem was taken
39:1	inIn the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, cameNebuchadnezzar Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon and all his army came against Jerusalem, and besieged it;.
39:2	inIn the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, a breach was made in the city,.
39:3	thatAll all the princes of the king of Babylon came in, and sat in the middle gate,: to wit, Nergal sharezerSharezer, Samgar neboSamgarnebo, Sarsechim, Rabthe sarisRabsaris, Nergal sharezer,Sharezer Rabthe magRabmag, with all the rest of the princes of the king of Babylon.
39:4	AndWhen it came to pass that, when Zedekiah the king of Judah and all the men of war saw them, then they fled, and went forth out of the city by night, by the way of the kings garden, through the gate betwixtbetween the two walls; and he went out toward the Arabah.
39:5	But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho:. andWhen when they had taken him, they brought him up to NebuchadrezzarNebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; and he gavepronounced judgment uponon him.
39:6	Then the king of Babylon slewkilled theZedekiahs sons of Zedekiah in Riblah before his eyes:. alsoThe the king of Babylon slewalso killed all the nobles of Judah.
39:7	Moreover he put out Zedekiahs eyes, and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon.
39:8	AndThe the Chaldeans burned the kings house, and the peoples houses of the people, with fire, and brakebroke down the walls of Jerusalem.
39:9	Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away captive into Babylon the residuerest of the people thatwho remained in the city, the deserters also thatwho fell away to him, and the residuerest of the people thatwho remained.
39:10	But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the poor of the people, thatwho had nothing, in the land of Judah, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.
39:11	Now NebuchadrezzarNebuchadnezzar king of Babylon gavecommanded charge concerning Jeremiah to Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard concerning Jeremiah, saying,
39:12	Take him, and looktake wellcare toof him,. andDo do him no harm; but do untoto him even as he shalltells say unto theeyou.
39:13	So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard sent, and Nebushazban, Rab sarisRabsaris, and Nergal sharezerSharezer, Rab magRabmag, and all the chief officers of the king of Babylon;
39:14	they sent, and took Jeremiah out of the court of the guard, and committed him untoto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, that he should carrybring him home. So he dweltlived among the people.
39:15	Now theYahwehs word of Jehovah came untoto Jeremiah, while he was shut up in the court of the guard, saying,
39:16	Go, and speak to EbedEbedmelech melech the Ethiopian, saying, ThusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says: Behold, I will bring my words uponon this city for evil, and not for good; and they shallwill be accomplished before theeyou in that day.
39:17	But I will deliver theeyou in that day, saithsays JehovahYahweh; and thouyou shaltwill not be given into the hand of the men of whom thouyou artare afraid.
39:18	For I will surely save thee,you. andYou thouwont shalt not fall by the sword, but thyyou lifewill shallescape bewith foryour alife, prey unto thee; because thouyou hasthave put thyyour trust in me, saithsays JehovahYahweh.
40:1	The word which came to Jeremiah from JehovahYahweh, after that Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had let him go from Ramah, when he had taken him being bound in chains among all the captives of Jerusalem and Judah, thatwho were carried away captive untoto Babylon.
40:2	AndThe the captain of the guard took Jeremiah, and said untoto him, JehovahYahweh thyyour God pronounced this evil uponon this place;
40:3	and JehovahYahweh hathhas brought it, and done according as he spake:spoke. becauseBecause yeyou have sinned against JehovahYahweh, and have not obeyed his voice, therefore this thing ishas come uponon you.
40:4	And nowNow, behold, I looserelease theeyou thistoday day from the chains which are uponon thyyour hand. If it seemseems good untoto theeyou to come with me into Babylon, come, and I will looktake wellcare untoof theeyou; but if it seemseems illbad untoto theeyou to come with me into Babylon, forbear:dont. beholdBehold, all the land is before thee;you. whitherWhere it seemethseems good and right untoto theeyou to go, thithergo gothere.
40:5	Now while he washad not yet gone back, Go back then, he said he, to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon hathhas made governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people; or go wheresoeverwherever it seemethseems right untoto theeyou to go. So the captain of the guard gave him victualsfood and a present, and let him go.
40:6	Then Jeremiah went Jeremiahto unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah, and dweltlived with him among the people thatwho were left in the land.
40:7	Now when all the captains of the forces thatwho were in the fields, even they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam governor in the land, and had committed untoto him men, and women, and children, and of the poorest of the land, of themthose thatwho were not carried away captive to Babylon;,
40:8	then they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, to wit, Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan and Jonathan the sons of Kareah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth, and the sons of Ephai the Netophathite, and Jezaniah the son of the Maacathite, they and their men came to Gedaliah to Mizpah.
40:9	And Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan swareswore untoto them and to their men, saying, FearDont notbe afraid to serve the Chaldeans:. dwellDwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shallwill be well with you.
40:10	As for me, behold, I will dwell at Mizpah, to stand before the Chaldeans thatwho shallwill come untoto us:; but yeyou, gather ye wine and summer fruits and oil, and put them in your vessels, and dwell in your cities that yeyou have taken.
40:11	Likewise when all the Jews thatwho were in Moab, and among the children of Ammon, and in Edom, and thatwho were in all the countries, heard that the king of Babylon had left a remnant of Judah, and that he had set over them Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan;,
40:12	then all the Jews returned out of all places whitherwhere they were driven, and came to the land of Judah, to Gedaliah, untoto Mizpah, and gathered very much wine and summer fruits very much.
40:13	Moreover Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces thatwho were in the fields, came to Gedaliah to Mizpah,
40:14	and said untoto him, DostDo thouyou know that Baalis the king of the children of Ammon hathhas sent Ishmael the son of Nethaniah to take thyyour life? But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam believeddidnt believe them not.
40:15	Then Johanan the son of Kareah spakespoke to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, saying, LetPlease let me go, I pray thee, and I will slaykill Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and no man shallwill know it:. whereforeWhy should he take thyyour life, that all the Jews thatwho are gathered untoto theeyou should be scattered, and the remnant of Judah perish?
40:16	But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam said untoto Johanan the son of Kareah, ThouYou shaltshall not do this thing;, for thouyou speakestspeak falsely of Ishmael.
41:1	Now it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the seed royal offspring and one of the chief officers of the king, and ten men with him, came untoto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and there they didate eat bread together in Mizpah.
41:2	Then arose Ishmael the son of Nethaniah arose, and the ten men thatwho were with him, and smotestruck Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan with the sword, and slewkilled him, whom the king of Babylon had made governor over the land.
41:3	Ishmael also slewkilled all the Jews thatwho were with him, to wit, with Gedaliah, at Mizpah, and the ChaldeansChaldean thatmen of war who were found there, the men of war.
41:4	AndThe it came to pass the second day after he had slainkilled Gedaliah, and no man knew it,
41:5	thatmen there came men from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, even fourscoreeighty men, having their beards shavenshaved and their clothes renttorn, and having cut themselves, with meal offerings and frankincense in their hand, to bring them to theYahwehs house of Jehovah.
41:6	And Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went forthout from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went:, and it came to pass, as he met them, he said untoto them, Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam.
41:7	AndIt it was so, when they came into the midstmiddle of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah slewkilled them, and cast them into the midstmiddle of the pit, he, and the men thatwho were with him.
41:8	But ten men were found among themthose thatwho said untoto Ishmael, SlayDont kill us not; for we have stores hidden in the field, of wheat, and of barley, and of oil, and of honey. So he forbarestopped, and slewdidnt kill them not among their brethrenbrothers.
41:9	Now the pit whereinin which Ishmael cast all the dead bodies of the men whom he had slainkilled, by the side of Gedaliah thethis same was that which Asa the king had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel, Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with themthose thatwho were slainkilled.
41:10	Then Ishmael carried away captive all the residue of the people thatwho were left in Mizpah, even the kings daughters, and all the people thatwho remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had committed to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam;. Ishmael the son of Nethaniah carried them away captive, and departed to go over to the children of Ammon.
41:11	But when Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces thatwho were with him, heard of all the evil that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had done,
41:13	Now it came to pass that, when all the people thatwho were with Ishmael saw Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces thatwho were with him, then they were glad.
41:14	So all the people thatwho Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah turned about and came back, and went untoto Johanan the son of Kareah.
41:16	Then took Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces thatwho were with him, took all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, from Mizpah, after that he had slainkilled Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, to wit, —the men of war, andwith the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought back from Gibeon.
41:17	AndThey they departed, and dweltlived in Geruth Chimham, which is by Beth lehemBethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt,
41:18	because of the Chaldeans; for they were afraid of them, because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had slainkilled Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon made governor over the land.
42:1	Then all the captains of the forces, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Jezaniah the son of Hoshaiah, and all the people from the least even untoto the greatest, came near,
42:2	and said untoto Jeremiah the prophet, Let,Please welet pray thee, our supplication be presented before theeyou, and pray for us untoto JehovahYahweh thyyour God, even for all this remnant, for we are left but a few of many, as thineyour eyes dosee behold us,
42:3	that JehovahYahweh thyyour God may show us the way whereinin which we should walk, and the thingthings that we should do.
42:4	Then Jeremiah the prophet said untoto them, I have heard you;. beholdBehold, I will pray untoto JehovahYahweh your God according to your words; and it shallwill comehappen to pass that whatsoeverwhatever thing JehovahYahweh shallanswers answer you, I will declare it untoto you;. I will keep nothing back from you.
42:5	Then they said to Jeremiah, JehovahMay Yahweh be a true and faithful witness amongstamong us, if we dont do not according to all the word wherewithwith Jehovahwhich thyYahweh your God shallsends sendyou thee to tell us.
42:6	Whether it beis good, or whether it beis evilbad, we will obey the voice of JehovahYahweh our God, to whom we send theeyou; that it may be well with us, when we obey the voice of JehovahYahweh our God.
42:7	AndAfter it came to pass after ten days, thatYahwehs the word of Jehovah came untoto Jeremiah.
42:8	Then he called he Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces thatwho were with him, and all the people from the least even to the greatest,
42:9	and said untoto them, Thus saith JehovahYahweh, the God of Israel, untoto whom yeyou sent me to present your supplication before him, says:
42:10	If yeyou will still abidelive in this land, then I will I build you, and not pull you down, and I will plant you, and not pluck you up; for I repentgrieve meover of the evildistress that I have donebrought untoon you.
42:11	BeDont notbe afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom yeyou are afraid;. Dont be not afraid of him, saithsays Jehovah:Yahweh, for I am with you to save you, and to deliver you from his hand.
42:12	And I will grant you mercy, that he may have mercy uponon you, and cause you to return to your own land.
42:13	But if yeyou say, We will not dwell in this land;, so that yeyou dont obey notYahweh theyour Gods voice of Jehovah your God,
42:14	saying, No;, but we will go into the land of Egypt, where we shallwill see no war, nor hear the sound of the trumpet, nor have hunger of bread; and there we will we dwell:;
42:15	now therefore hear yeYahwehs the word of Jehovah, O remnant of Judah:! ThusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says, If yeyou indeed set your faces to enter into Egypt, and go to sojournlive there;,

43:1	AndWhen it came to pass that, when Jeremiah had madefinished an end of speaking untoto all the people all the words of JehovahYahweh their God, wherewithwith Jehovahwhich Yahweh their God had sent him to them, even all these words,
43:2	then spake Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the proud men spoke, saying untoto Jeremiah, ThouYou speakestspeak falsely:. JehovahYahweh our God hathhas not sent theeyou to say, YeYou shall not go into Egypt to sojournlive there;
43:3	but Baruch the son of Neriah settethhas theeturned onyou against us, to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they may put us to death, andor carry us away captive to Babylon.
43:4	So Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, and all the people, obeyeddidnt notobey theYahwehs voice of Jehovah, to dwell in the land of Judah.
43:5	But Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, took all the remnant of Judah, thatwho werehad returned from all the nations whitherwhere they had been driven, to sojournlive in the land of Judah;—
43:6	the men, and the women, and the children, and the kings daughters, and every person thatwho Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had left with Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan; and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch the son of Neriah.
43:7	AndThey they came into the land of Egypt;, for they obeyeddidnt notobey theYahwehs voice; of Jehovah: and they came untoto Tahpanhes.
43:8	Then cameYahwehs the word ofcame Jehovahto unto Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,
43:9	Take great stones in thyyour hand, and hide them in mortar in the brickwork,brick work which is at the entry of Pharaohs house in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the men of Judah;.
43:10	andTell say unto them, ThusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says: Behold, I will send and take NebuchadrezzarNebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will set his throne uponon these stones that I have hidhidden; and he shallwill spread his royal pavilion over them.
43:11	AndHe hewill shall come, and shallwill smitestrike the land of Egypt; such as are for death shallwill be givenput to death, and such as are for captivity to captivity, and such as are for the sword to the sword.
43:12	And I will kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt;. andHe hewill shall burn them, and carry them away captive:. andHe hewill shall array himself with the land of Egypt, as a shepherd puttethputs on his garment; and he shallwill go forthout from thencethere in peace.
43:13	He shallwill also break the pillars of Beth shemesh,Shemesh that is in the land of Egypt; and he will burn the houses of the gods of Egypt shall he burn with fire.
44:1	The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews thatwho dweltlived in the land of Egypt, thatwho dweltlived at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Memphis, and in the country of Pathros, saying,
44:2	ThusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says: YeYou have seen all the evil that I have brought uponon Jerusalem, and uponon all the cities of Judah;. andBehold, behold,today this day they are a desolation, and no man dwellethdwells thereinin them,
44:3	because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense, and to serve other gods, that they knewdidnt notknow, neither they, nor yeyou, nor your fathers.
44:4	HowbeitHowever I sent untoto you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, Oh, dont do not this abominable thing that I hate.
44:5	But they hearkeneddidnt not,listen norand inclineddidnt incline their ear. toThey didnt turn from their wickedness, to burnstop noburning incense untoto other gods.
44:6	WhereforeTherefore my wrath and minemy anger was poured forthout, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are wasted and desolate, as it is this daytoday.
44:7	Therefore now thus saith JehovahYahweh, the God of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says: WhereforeWhy commitdo yeyou thiscommit great evil against your own souls, to cut off from youyourselves man and woman, infant and suckling,nursing child out of the midstmiddle of Judah, to leave youyourselves noneno one remaining;,
44:8	in that yeyou provoke me untoto anger with the works of your hands, burning incense untoto other gods in the land of Egypt, whitherwhere yeyou arehave gone to sojourn;live, that yeyou may be cut off, and that yeyou may be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?
44:9	Have yeyou forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives, which they committed in the land of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
44:10	They are not humbled even untoto this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes, that I set before you and before your fathers.
44:11	Therefore thusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, says: Behold, I will set my face against you for evil, even to cut off all Judah.
44:12	And I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to sojournlive there, and they shallwill all be consumed;. They will fall in the land of Egypt. shallThey theywill fall; they shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine;. theyThey shallwill die, from the least even untoto the greatest, by the sword and by the famine;. andThey theywill shall be an execrationobject of horror, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach.
44:13	For I will punish themthose thatwho dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence;
44:14	so that none of the remnant of Judah, thatwho arehave gone into the land of Egypt to sojournlive there, shallwill escape or be left, to return into the land of Judah, to which they have a desire to return to dwell there:; for noneno shallone will return saveexcept suchthose aswho shallwill escape.
44:15	Then all the men who knew that their wives burned incense untoto other gods, and all the women thatwho stood by, a great assembly, even all the people thatwho dweltlived in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying,
44:16	As for the word that thouyou hasthave spoken untoto us in theYahwehs name of Jehovah, we will not hearkenlisten untoto theeyou.
44:17	But we will certainly perform every word that ishas gone forth out of our mouth, to burn incense untoto the queen of heaven,the sky and to pour out drink offerings untoto her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem; for then we had we plenty of victualsfood, and were well, and saw no evil.
44:18	But since we leftstopped off burning incense to the queen of heaventhe sky, and pouring out drink offerings untoto her, we have wantedlacked all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine.
44:19	AndThe whenwomen said, When we burned incense to the queen of heaven,the sky and poured out drink offerings untoto her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings untoto her, without our husbands?
44:20	Then Jeremiah said untoto all the people, —to the men, and to the women, even to all the people thatwho had given him thatan answer, saying,
44:21	The incense that yeyou burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, yeyou and your fathers, your kings and your princes, and the people of the land, diddidnt notYahweh Jehovah remember them, and camedidnt it notcome into his mind?
44:22	soThus thatYahweh Jehovah could notno longer bear it, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which yeyou have committed;. thereforeTherefore is your land has become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without inhabitant, as it is this daytoday.
44:23	Because yeyou have burned incense, and because yeyou have sinned against JehovahYahweh, and have not obeyed theYahwehs voice of Jehovah, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil ishas happened untoto you, as it is this daytoday.
44:24	Moreover Jeremiah said untoto all the people, andincluding to all the women, Hear theYahwehs word of Jehovah, all Judah thatwho are in the land of Egypt:!
44:25	ThusYahweh saith Jehovah of hostsArmies, the God of Israel, sayingsays, YeYou and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and with your hands have fulfilled it, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaventhe sky, and to pour out drink offerings untoto her:. establishEstablish then your vows, and perform your vows.
44:26	Therefore hear yeYahwehs the word of Jehovah, all Judah thatwho dwell in the land of Egypt: Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saithsays JehovahYahweh, that my name shallwill no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, As the Lord JehovahYahweh livethlives.
44:27	Behold, I watch over them for evil, and not for good; and all the men of Judah thatwho are in the land of Egypt shallwill be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until therethey beare anall end of themgone.
44:28	AndThose theywho that escape the sword shallwill return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, few in number;. andAll all the remnant of Judah, thatwho arehave gone into the land of Egypt to sojournlive there, shallwill know whose word shallwill stand, mine, or theirs.
44:29	AndThis thiswill shall be the sign untoto you, saithsays JehovahYahweh, that I will punish you in this place, that yeyou may know that my words shallwill surely stand against you for evil:.
44:30	ThusYahweh saith Jehovahsays, Behold, I will give Pharaoh Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of themthose thatwho seek his life;, just as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of NebuchadrezzarNebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, who was his enemy, and sought his life.
