JER-21:1 The word which came unto Jeremiah from the LORD, when
king Zedekiah
sent unto him Pashur the son of Melchiah, and Zephaniah the son
of Maaseiah
the priest, saying,
JER-21:2 Inquire, I pray thee, of the LORD for us; for
Nebuchadrezzar king of
Babylon maketh war against us; if so be that the LORD will deal
with us
according to all his wondrous works, that he may go up from us.
JER-21:3 Then said Jeremiah unto them, Thus shall ye say to
Zedekiah:
JER-21:4 Thus saith the LORD God of Israel; Behold, I will turn
back the
weapons of war that [are] in your hands, wherewith ye fight
against the king
of Babylon, and [against] the Chaldeans, which besiege you
without the walls,
and I will assemble them into the midst of this city.
JER-21:5 And I myself will fight against you with an
outstretched hand and
with a strong arm, even in anger, and in fury, and in great
wrath.
JER-21:6 And I will smite the inhabitants of this city, both
man and beast:
they shall die of a great pestilence.
JER-21:7 And afterward, saith the LORD, I will deliver Zedekiah
king of
Judah, and his servants, and the people, and such as are left in
this city
from the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, into
the hand of
Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their
enemies, and into
the hand of those that seek their life: and he shall smite them
with the edge
of the sword; he shall not spare them, neither have pity, nor
have mercy.
JER-21:8 And unto this people thou shalt say, Thus saith the
LORD; Behold, I
set before you the way of life, and the way of death.
JER-21:9 He that abideth in this city shall die by the sword,
and by the
famine, and by the pestilence: but he that goeth out, and
falleth to the
Chaldeans that besiege you, he shall live, and his life shall be
unto him for
a prey.
JER-21:10 For I have set my face against this city for evil,
and not for
good, saith the LORD: it shall be given into the hand of the
king of Babylon,
and he shall burn it with fire.
JER-21:11 And touching the house of the king of Judah, [say],
Hear ye the
word of the LORD;
JER-21:12 O house of David, thus saith the LORD; Execute
judgment in the
morning, and deliver [him that is] spoiled out of the hand of
the oppressor,
lest my fury go out like fire, and burn that none can quench
[it], because of
the evil of your doings.
JER-21:13 Behold, I [am] against thee, O inhabitant of the
valley, [and] rock
of the plain, saith the LORD; which say, Who shall come down
against us? or
who shall enter into our habitations?
JER-21:14 But I will punish you according to the fruit of your
doings, saith
the LORD: and I will kindle a fire in the forest thereof, and it
shall devour
all things round about it.
