The wordH1697 that cameH1961 to JeremiahH3414 concerningH5921 allH3605 the peopleH5971 of JudahH3063 in the fourthH7243 yearH8141 of JehoiakimH3079 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 kingH4428 of Judah,H3063 that was the firstH7224 yearH8141 of NebuchadrezzarH5019 kingH4428 of Babylon;H894
2
The whichH834 JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 spokeH1696 to allH3605 the peopleH5971 of Judah,H3063 and to allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of Jerusalem,H3389 saying,H559
3
From the thirteenthH7969 H6240 yearH8141 of JosiahH2977 the sonH1121 of AmonH526 kingH4428 of Judah,H3063 even to thisH2088 day,H3117 that is the threeH7969 and twentiethH6242 year,H8141 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 has comeH1961 to me, and I have spokenH1696 to you, risingH7925 earlyH7925 and speaking;H1696 but you have not listened.H8085
4
And the LORDH3068 has sentH7971 to you allH3605 his servantsH5650 the prophets,H5030 risingH7925 earlyH7925 and sendingH7971 them; but you have not listened,H8085 norH3808 inclinedH5186 your earH241 to hear.H8085
5
They said,H559 TurnH7725 you againH7725 nowH4994 everyH376 oneH376 from his evilH7451 way,H1870 and from the evilH7455 of your doings,H4611 and dwellH3427 in the landH127 that the LORDH3068 has givenH5414 to you and to your fathersH1 for everH5769 and ever:H5769
6
And goH3212 not afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to serveH5647 them, and to worshipH7812 them, and provoke me not to angerH3707 with the worksH4639 of your hands;H3027 and I will do you noH3808 hurt.H7489
7
Yet you have not listenedH8085 to me, saidH5002 the LORD;H3068 that you might provoke me to angerH3707 with the worksH4639 of your handsH3027 to your own hurt.H7451
8
ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saidH559 the LORDH3068 of hosts;H6635 BecauseH3282 H834 you have not heardH8085 my words,H1697
9
Behold,H2005 I will sendH7971 and takeH3947 allH3605 the familiesH4940 of the north,H6828 saidH5002 the LORD,H3068 and NebuchadrezzarH5019 the kingH4428 of Babylon,H894 my servant,H5650 and will bringH935 them againstH5921 thisH2063 land,H776 and againstH5921 the inhabitantsH3427 thereof, and againstH5921 allH3605 theseH428 nationsH1471 roundH5439 about, and will utterly destroyH2763 them, and makeH7760 them an astonishment,H8047 and an hissing,H8322 and perpetualH5769 desolations.H2723
10
Moreover I will takeH6 from them the voiceH6963 of mirth,H8342 and the voiceH6963 of gladness,H8057 the voiceH6963 of the bridegroom,H2860 and the voiceH6963 of the bride,H3618 the soundH6963 of the millstones,H7347 and the lightH216 of the candle.H5216
11
And thisH2063 wholeH3605 landH776 shall be a desolation,H2723 and an astonishment;H8047 and theseH428 nationsH1471 shall serveH5647 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 seventyH7657 years.H8141
12
And it shall comeH1961 to pass, when seventyH7657 yearsH8141 are accomplished,H4390 that I will punishH6485 the kingH4428 of Babylon,H894 and that nation,H1471 saidH5002 the LORD,H3068 for their iniquity,H5771 and the landH776 of the Chaldeans,H3778 and will makeH7760 it perpetualH5769 desolations.H8077
13
And I will bringH935 on that landH776 allH3605 my wordsH1697 whichH834 I have pronouncedH1696 againstH5921 it, even allH3605 that is writtenH3789 in thisH2088 book,H5612 whichH834 JeremiahH3414 has prophesiedH5012 againstH5921 allH3605 the nations.H1471
14
For manyH7227 nationsH1471 and greatH1419 kingsH4428 shall serveH5647 themselves of them also:H1571 and I will recompenseH7999 them according to their deeds,H6467 and according to the worksH4639 of their own hands.H3027
15
For thusH3541 saidH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 to me; TakeH3947 the wineH3196 cupH3563 of thisH2063 furyH2534 at my hand,H3027 and cause allH3605 the nations,H1471 to whomH834 H413 I sendH7971 you, to drinkH8248 it.
16
And they shall drink,H8354 and be moved,H1607 and be mad,H1984 becauseH6440 of the swordH2719 that I will sendH7971 amongH996 them.
17
Then tookH3947 I the cupH3563 at the LORD'sH3068 hand,H3027 and made allH3605 the nationsH1471 to drink,H8248 to whomH834 H413 the LORDH3068 had sentH7971 me:
18
To wit, Jerusalem,H3389 and the citiesH5892 of Judah,H3063 and the kingsH4428 thereof, and the princesH8269 thereof, to makeH5414 them a desolation,H2723 an astonishment,H8047 an hissing,H8322 and a curse;H7045 as it is thisH2088 day;H3117
19
PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of Egypt,H4714 and his servants,H5650 and his princes,H8269 and allH3605 his people;H5971
20
And allH3605 the mingledH6154 people, and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the landH776 of Uz,H5780 and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the landH776 of the Philistines,H6430 and Ashkelon,H831 and Azzah,H5804 and Ekron,H6138 and the remnantH7611 of Ashdod,H795
21
Edom,H123 and Moab,H4124 and the childrenH1121 of Ammon,H5983
22
And allH3605 the kingsH4428 of Tyrus,H6865 and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of Zidon,H6721 and the kingsH4428 of the islesH339 whichH834 are beyondH5676 the sea,H3220
23
Dedan,H1719 and Tema,H8485 and Buz,H938 and allH3605 that are in the utmostH7112 corners,H6285
24
And allH3605 the kingsH4428 of Arabia,H6152 and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the mingledH6154 people that dwellH7931 in the desert,H4057
25
And allH3605 the kingsH4428 of Zimri,H2174 and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of Elam,H5867 and allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the Medes,H4074
26
And allH3605 the kingsH4428 of the north,H6828 farH7350 and near,H7138 oneH376 with another,H251 and allH3605 the kingdomsH4467 of the world,H776 whichH834 are on the faceH6440 of the earth:H127 and the kingH4428 of SheshachH8347 shall drinkH8354 afterH310 them.
27
Therefore you shall sayH559 to them, ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORDH3068 of hosts,H6635 the GodH430 of Israel;H3478 DrinkH8354 you, and be drunken,H7937 and spew,H7006 and fall,H5307 and riseH6965 noH3808 more, becauseH6440 of the swordH2719 whichH834 I will sendH7971 amongH996 you.
28
And it shall be, if they refuseH3985 to takeH3947 the cupH3563 at your handH3027 to drink,H8354 then shall you sayH559 to them, ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORDH3068 of hosts;H6635 You shall certainly drink.H8354
29
For, see,H2009 I beginH2490 to bring evilH7489 on the cityH5892 whichH834 is calledH7121 by my name,H8034 and should you be utterly unpunished?H5352 You shall not be unpunished:H5352 for I will callH7121 for a swordH2719 on allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of the earth,H776 saidH5002 the LORDH3068 of hosts.H6635
30
Therefore prophesyH5012 you againstH413 them allH3605 theseH428 words,H1697 and sayH559 to them, The LORDH3068 shall roarH7580 from on high,H4791 and utterH5414 his voiceH6963 from his holyH6944 habitation;H4583 he shall mightily roarH7580 on his habitation;H5116 he shall give a shout,H6030 H1959 as they that treadH1869 the grapes, againstH413 allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of the earth.H776
31
A noiseH7588 shall comeH935 even to the endsH7097 of the earth;H776 for the LORDH3068 has a controversyH7379 with the nations,H1471 he will pleadH8199 with allH3605 flesh;H1320 he will giveH5414 them that are wickedH7563 to the sword,H2719 saidH5002 the LORD.H3068
32
ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORDH3068 of hosts,H6635 Behold,H2009 evilH7451 shall goH3318 forthH3318 from nationH1471 to nation,H1471 and a greatH1419 whirlwindH5591 shall be raisedH5782 up from the coastsH3411 of the earth.H776
33
And the slainH2491 of the LORDH3068 shall be at that dayH3117 from one endH7097 of the earthH776 even to the other endH7097 of the earth:H776 they shall not be lamented,H5594 neitherH3808 gathered,H622 norH3808 buried;H6912 they shall be dungH1828 on the ground.H127
34
Howl,H3213 you shepherds,H7462 and cry;H2199 and wallowH6428 yourselves in the ashes, you principalH117 of the flock:H6629 for the daysH3117 of your slaughterH2873 and of your dispersionsH8600 are accomplished;H4390 and you shall fallH5307 like a pleasantH2532 vessel.H3627
35
And the shepherdsH7462 shall have noH4480 wayH4498 to flee,H4498 nor the principalH117 of the flockH6629 to escape.H6413
36
A voiceH6963 of the cryH6818 of the shepherds,H7462 and an howlingH3213 of the principalH117 of the flock,H6629 shall be heard:H8085 for the LORDH3068 has spoiledH7703 their pasture.H4830
37
And the peaceableH7965 habitationsH4999 are cutH1826 down becauseH6440 of the fierceH2740 angerH639 of the LORD.H3068
38
He has forsakenH5800 his covert,H5520 as the lion:H3715 for their landH776 is desolateH8047 becauseH6440 of the fiercenessH2740 of the oppressor,H3238 and becauseH6440 of his fierceH2740 anger.H639
