And it cameH1961 to pass in the fourthH7243 yearH8141 of JehoiakimH3079 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 kingH4428 of Judah,H3063 that thisH2088 wordH1697 cameH1961 to JeremiahH3414 from the LORD,H3068 saying,H559
2
TakeH3947 you a rollH4039 of a book,H5612 and writeH3789 thereinH413 allH3605 the wordsH1697 that I have spokenH1696 to you againstH5921 Israel,H3478 and againstH5921 Judah,H3063 and againstH5921 allH3605 the nations,H1471 from the dayH3117 I spokeH1696 to you, from the daysH3117 of Josiah,H2977 even to thisH2088 day.H3117
3
It may be that the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 will hearH8085 allH3605 the evilH7451 whichH834 I purposeH2803 to doH6213 to them; that they may returnH7725 every manH376 from his evilH7451 way;H1870 that I may forgiveH5545 their iniquityH5771 and their sin.H2403
4
Then JeremiahH3414 calledH7121 BaruchH1263 the sonH1121 of Neriah:H5374 and BaruchH1263 wroteH3789 from the mouthH6310 of JeremiahH3414 allH3605 the wordsH1697 of the LORD,H3068 whichH834 he had spokenH1696 to him, on a rollH4039 of a book.H5612
5
And JeremiahH3414 commandedH6680 Baruch,H1263 saying,H559 I am shutH6113 up; I cannotH3808 H3201 goH935 into the houseH1004 of the LORD:H3068
6
Therefore goH935 you, and readH7121 in the roll,H4039 whichH834 you have writtenH3789 from my mouth,H6310 the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068 in the earsH241 of the peopleH5971 in the LORD'sH3068 houseH1004 on the fastingH6685 day:H3117 and alsoH1571 you shall readH7121 them in the earsH241 of allH3605 JudahH3063 that comeH935 out of their cities.H5892
7
It may be they will presentH5307 their supplicationH8467 beforeH6440 the LORD,H3068 and will returnH7725 everyH376 one from his evilH7451 way:H1870 for greatH1419 is the angerH639 and the furyH2534 that the LORDH3068 has pronouncedH1696 againstH413 thisH2088 people.H5971
8
And BaruchH1263 the sonH1121 of NeriahH5374 didH6213 according to allH3605 that JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 commandedH6680 him, readingH7121 in the bookH5612 the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068 in the LORD'sH3068 house.H1004
9
And it cameH1961 to pass in the fifthH2549 yearH8141 of JehoiakimH3079 the sonH1121 of JosiahH2977 kingH4428 of Judah,H3063 in the ninthH8671 month,H2320 that they proclaimedH7121 a fastH6685 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 to allH3605 the peopleH5971 in Jerusalem,H3389 and to allH3605 the peopleH5971 that cameH935 from the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 to Jerusalem.H3389
10
Then readH7121 BaruchH1263 in the bookH5612 the wordsH1697 of JeremiahH3414 in the houseH1004 of the LORD,H3068 in the chamberH3957 of GemariahH1587 the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227 the scribe,H5608 in the higherH5945 court,H2691 at the entryH6607 of the newH2319 gateH8179 of the LORD'sH3068 house,H1004 in the earsH241 of allH3605 the people.H5971
11
When MichaiahH4321 the sonH1121 of Gemariah,H1587 the sonH1121 of Shaphan,H8227 had heardH8085 out of the bookH5612 allH3605 the wordsH1697 of the LORD,H3068
12
Then he wentH3381 downH3381 into the king'sH4428 house,H1004 intoH5921 the scribe'sH5608 chamber:H3957 and, see,H2009 allH3605 the princesH8269 satH3427 there,H8033 even ElishamaH476 the scribe,H5608 and DelaiahH1806 the sonH1121 of Shemaiah,H8098 and ElnathanH494 the sonH1121 of Achbor,H5907 and GemariahH1587 the sonH1121 of Shaphan,H8227 and ZedekiahH6667 the sonH1121 of Hananiah,H2608 and allH3605 the princes.H8269
13
Then MichaiahH4321 declaredH5046 to them allH3605 the wordsH1697 that he had heard,H8085 when BaruchH1263 readH7121 the bookH5612 in the earsH241 of the people.H5971
14
Therefore allH3605 the princesH8269 sentH7971 JehudiH3065 the sonH1121 of Nethaniah,H5418 the sonH1121 of Shelemiah,H8018 the sonH1121 of Cushi,H3569 to Baruch,H1263 saying,H559 TakeH3947 in your handH3027 the rollH4039 whereinH834 you have readH7121 in the earsH241 of the people,H5971 and come.H3212 So BaruchH1263 the sonH1121 of NeriahH5374 tookH3947 the rollH4039 in his hand,H3027 and cameH935 to them.
15
And they saidH559 to him, SitH3427 down now,H4994 and readH7121 it in our ears.H241 So BaruchH1263 readH7121 it in their ears.H241
16
Now it cameH1961 to pass, when they had heardH8085 allH3605 the words,H1697 they were afraidH6342 bothH413 oneH376 and other,H7453 and saidH559 to Baruch,H1263 We will surely tellH5046 the kingH4428 of allH3605 theseH428 words.H1697
17
And they askedH7592 Baruch,H1263 saying,H559 TellH5046 us now,H4994 HowH349 did you writeH3789 allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697 at his mouth?H6310
18
Then BaruchH1263 answeredH559 them, He pronouncedH7126 allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697 to me with his mouth,H6310 and I wroteH3789 them with inkH1773 in the book.H5612
19
Then saidH559 the princesH8269 to Baruch,H1263 Go,H3212 hideH5641 you, you and Jeremiah;H3414 and let noH408 manH376 knowH3045 whereH375 you be.
20
And they wentH935 in to the kingH4428 into the court,H2691 but they laidH6485 up the rollH4039 in the chamberH3957 of ElishamaH476 the scribe,H5608 and toldH5046 allH3605 the wordsH1697 in the earsH241 of the king.H4428
21
So the kingH4428 sentH7971 JehudiH3065 to fetchH3947 the roll:H4039 and he tookH3947 it out of ElishamaH476 the scribe'sH5608 chamber.H3957 And JehudiH3065 readH7121 it in the earsH241 of the king,H4428 and in the earsH241 of allH3605 the princesH8269 which stoodH5975 besideH5921 the king.H4428
22
Now the kingH4428 satH3427 in the winter houseH2779 in the ninthH8671 month:H2320 and there was a fire on the hearthH254 burningH1197 beforeH6440 him.
23
And it cameH1961 to pass, that when JehudiH3065 had readH7121 threeH7969 or fourH702 leaves,H1817 he cutH7167 it with the penknife,H8593 and castH7993 it intoH413 the fireH784 that was onH413 the hearth,H254 untilH5704 allH3605 the rollH4039 was consumedH8552 in the fireH784 that was onH5921 the hearth.H254
24
Yet they were not afraid,H6342 norH3808 rentH7167 their garments,H899 neither the king,H4428 nor anyH3605 of his servantsH5650 that heardH8085 allH3605 theseH428 words.H1697
25
NeverthelessH1571 ElnathanH494 and DelaiahH1806 and GemariahH1587 had made intercessionH6293 to the kingH4428 that he would not burnH8313 the roll:H4039 but he would not hearH8085 them.
26
But the kingH4428 commandedH6680 JerahmeelH3396 the sonH1121 of Hammelech,H4429 and SeraiahH8304 the sonH1121 of Azriel,H5837 and ShelemiahH8018 the sonH1121 of Abdeel,H5655 to takeH3947 BaruchH1263 the scribeH5608 and JeremiahH3414 the prophet:H5030 but the LORDH3068 hidH5641 them.
27
Then the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 to Jeremiah,H3414 afterH310 that the kingH4428 had burnedH8313 the roll,H4039 and the wordsH1697 whichH834 BaruchH1263 wroteH3789 at the mouthH6310 of Jeremiah,H3414 saying,H559
28
TakeH3947 you againH7725 anotherH312 roll,H4039 and writeH3789 in it allH3605 the formerH7223 wordsH1697 that were in the firstH7223 roll,H4039 whichH834 JehoiakimH3079 the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 has burned.H8313
29
And you shall sayH559 to JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of Judah,H3063 ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORD;H3068 You have burnedH8313 thisH2063 roll,H4039 saying,H559 WhyH4069 have you writtenH3789 therein,H5921 saying,H559 The kingH4428 of BabylonH894 shall certainly comeH935 and destroyH7843 thisH2063 land,H776 and shall cause to ceaseH7673 from there manH120 and beast?H929
30
ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saidH559 the LORDH3068 of JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of Judah;H3063 He shall haveH1961 noneH3808 to sitH3427 on the throneH3678 of David:H1732 and his deadH5038 bodyH5038 shall be castH7993 out in the dayH3117 to the heat,H2721 and in the nightH3915 to the frost.H7140
31
And I will punishH6485 him and his seedH2233 and his servantsH5650 for their iniquity;H5771 and I will bringH935 on them, and on the inhabitantsH3427 of Jerusalem,H3389 and on the menH376 of Judah,H3063 allH3605 the evilH7451 that I have pronouncedH1696 againstH413 them; but they listenedH8085 not.
32
Then tookH3947 JeremiahH3414 anotherH312 roll,H4039 and gaveH5414 it to BaruchH1263 the scribe,H5608 the sonH1121 of Neriah;H5374 who wroteH3789 thereinH5921 from the mouthH6310 of JeremiahH3414 allH3605 the wordsH1697 of the bookH5612 whichH834 JehoiakimH3079 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 had burnedH8313 in the fire:H784 and there were addedH3254 besidesH5750 to them manyH7227 like words.H1697
