JER-39: 9 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away

captive into Babylon the remnant of the people that remained in

the city, and those that fell away, that fell to him, with the

rest of the people that remained. <away> <babylon> <captain>

JER-39: 10 But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left of the

poor of the people, which had nothing, in the land of Judah, and

gave them vineyards and fields at the same time. <captain>

JER-39: 11 Now Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon gave charge

concerning Jeremiah to Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard,

saying, <babylon> <captain> <charge> <concerning> <gave> <guard>

JER-39: 12 Take him, and look well to him, and do him no harm;

but do unto him even as he shall say unto thee. <do> <even>

JER-39: 13 So Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard sent, and

Nebushasban, Rabsaris, and Nergalsharezer, Rabmag, and all the

king of Babylon's princes; <all> <captain> <guard> <king>

JER-39: 14 Even they sent, and took Jeremiah out of the court of

the prison, and committed him unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam

the son of Shaphan, that he should carry him home: so he dwelt

among the people. <ahikam> <among> <carry> <committed> <court>

JER-39: 15 Now the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, while he

was shut up in the court of the prison, saying, <came> <court>

JER-39: 16 Go and speak to Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying,

Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will

bring my words upon this city for evil, and not for good; and

they shall be [accomplished] in that day before thee. <before>

JER-39: 17 But I will deliver thee in that day, saith the LORD:

and thou shalt not be given into the hand of the men of whom

thou [art] afraid. <afraid> <art> <day> <deliver> <given> <hand>

JER-39: 18 For I will surely deliver thee, and thou shalt not

fall by the sword, but thy life shall be for a prey unto thee:

because thou hast put thy trust in me, saith the LORD. <because>

JER-40: 1 The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, 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

that were carried away captive of Jerusalem and Judah, which

were carried away captive unto Babylon. <after> <all> <among>

JER-40: 2 And the captain of the guard took Jeremiah, and said

unto him, The LORD thy God hath pronounced this evil upon this

place. <captain> <evil> <god> <guard> <hath> <him> <jeremiah>

JER-40: 3 Now the LORD hath brought [it] , and done according as

he hath said: because ye have sinned against the LORD, and have

not obeyed his voice, therefore this thing is come upon you.

JER-40: 4 And now, behold, I loose thee this day from the chains

which [were] upon thine hand. If it seem good unto thee to come

with me into Babylon, come; and I will look well unto thee: but

if it seem ill unto thee to come with me into Babylon, forbear:

behold, all the land [is] before thee: whither it seemeth good

and convenient for thee to go, thither go. <all> <babylon>

JER-40: 5 Now while he was not yet gone back, [he said] , Go

back also to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, whom

the king of Babylon hath made governor over the cities of Judah,

and dwell with him among the people: or go wheresoever it

seemeth convenient unto thee to go. So the captain of the guard

gave him victuals and a reward, and let him go. <ahikam> <also>

JER-40: 6 Then went Jeremiah unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to

Mizpah; and dwelt with him among the people that were left in

the land. <ahikam> <among> <dwelt> <gedaliah> <him> <jeremiah>

JER-40: 7 Now when all the captains of the forces which [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 unto him men, and women, and children, and of

the poor of the land, of them that were not carried away captive

to Babylon; <ahikam> <all> <away> <babylon> <captains> <captive>

JER-40: 8 Then they came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even 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 a Maachathite, they and

their men. <came> <ephai> <even> <gedaliah> <ishmael> <jezaniah>

<then>

JER-40: 9 And Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan

sware unto them and to their men, saying, Fear not to serve the

Chaldeans: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and

it shall be well with you. <ahikam> <babylon> <chaldeans>

JER-40: 10 As for me, behold, I will dwell at Mizpah, to serve

the Chaldeans, which will come unto us: but ye, gather ye wine,

and summer fruits, and oil, and put [them] in your vessels, and

dwell in your cities that ye have taken. <behold> <chaldeans>

<your>

JER-40: 11 Likewise when all the Jews that [were] in Moab, and

among the Ammonites, and in Edom, and that [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; <ahikam> <all> <ammonites> <among> <babylon>

JER-40: 12 Even all the Jews returned out of all places whither

they were driven, and came to the land of Judah, to Gedaliah,

unto Mizpah, and gathered wine and summer fruits very much.

JER-40: 13 Moreover Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the

captains of the forces that [were] in the fields, came to

Gedaliah to Mizpah, <all> <came> <captains> <fields> <forces>

JER-40: 14 And said unto him, Dost thou certainly know that

Baalis the king of the Ammonites hath sent Ishmael the son of

Nethaniah to slay thee? But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam believed

them not. <ahikam> <ammonites> <baalis> <believed> <certainly>

JER-40: 15 Then Johanan the son of Kareah spake to Gedaliah in

Mizpah secretly, saying, Let me go, I pray thee, and I will slay

Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and no man shall know [it] :

wherefore should he slay thee, that all the Jews which are

gathered unto thee should be scattered, and the remnant in Judah

perish? <all> <are> <gathered> <gedaliah> <go> <ishmael> <jews>

JER-40: 16 But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam said unto Johanan the

son of Kareah, Thou shalt not do this thing: for thou speakest

falsely of Ishmael. <ahikam> <do> <falsely> <gedaliah> <ishmael>

JER-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, and the princes of the king, even ten men with him, came

unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and there they did

eat bread together in Mizpah. <ahikam> <bread> <came> <did>

JER-41: 2 Then arose Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and the ten

men that were with him, and smote Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the

son of Shaphan with the sword, and slew him, whom the king of

Babylon had made governor over the land. <ahikam> <arose>

JER-41: 3 Ishmael also slew all the Jews that were with him,

[even] with Gedaliah, at Mizpah, and the Chaldeans that were

found there, [and] the men of war. <all> <also> <chaldeans>

JER-41: 4 And it came to pass the second day after he had slain

Gedaliah, and no man knew [it] , <after> <came> <day> <gedaliah>

JER-41: 5 That there came certain from Shechem, from Shiloh, and

from Samaria, [even] fourscore men, having their beards shaven,

and their clothes rent, and having cut themselves, with

offerings and incense in their hand, to bring [them] to the

house of the LORD. <beards> <bring> <came> <certain> <clothes>

JER-41: 6 And Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went forth from

Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went: and it came

to pass, as he met them, he said unto them, Come to Gedaliah the

son of Ahikam. <ahikam> <all> <along> <came> <come> <forth>

JER-41: 7 And it was [so] , when they came into the midst of the

city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah slew them, [and cast

them] into the midst of the pit, he, and the men that [were]

with him. <came> <cast> <city> <him> <into> <ishmael> <men>

JER-41: 8 But ten men were found among them that said unto

Ishmael, Slay us not: for we have treasures in the field, of

wheat, and of barley, and of oil, and of honey. So he forbare,

and slew them not among their brethren. <among> <barley>

JER-41: 9 Now the pit wherein Ishmael had cast all the dead

bodies of the men, whom he had slain because of Gedaliah, [was]

it which Asa the king had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel:

[and] Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with [them that

were] slain. <all> <asa> <baasha> <because> <bodies> <cast>

JER-41: 10 Then Ishmael carried away captive all the residue of

the people that [were] in Mizpah, [even] the king's daughters,

and all the people that remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the

captain of the guard had committed to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam:

and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah carried them away captive, and

departed to go over to the Ammonites. <ahikam> <all> <ammonites>

JER-41: 11 But when Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the

captains of the forces that [were] with him, heard of all the

evil that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had done, <all>

JER-41: 12 Then they took all the men, and went to fight with

Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and found him by the great waters

that [are] in Gibeon. <all> <are> <fight> <found> <gibeon>

JER-41: 13 Now it came to pass, [that] when all the people which

[were] with Ishmael saw Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the

captains of the forces that [were] with him, then they were glad.

JER-41: 14 So all the people that Ishmael had carried away

captive from Mizpah cast about and returned, and went unto

Johanan the son of Kareah. <all> <away> <captive> <carried>

JER-41: 15 But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan

with eight men, and went to the Ammonites. <ammonites> <eight>

<with>

JER-41: 16 Then took Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the

captains of the forces that [were] with him, all the remnant of

the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of

Nethaniah, from Mizpah, after [that] he had slain Gedaliah the

son of Ahikam, [even] mighty men of war, and the women, and the

children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought again from Gibeon:

JER-41: 17 And they departed, and dwelt in the habitation of

Chimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt,

JER-41: 18 Because of the Chaldeans: for they were afraid of

them, because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had slain Gedaliah

the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon made governor in the

land. <afraid> <ahikam> <babylon> <because> <chaldeans>

JER-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 unto the greatest, came near, <all>

<then>

JER-42: 2 And said unto Jeremiah the prophet, Let, we beseech

thee, our supplication be accepted before thee, and pray for us

unto the LORD thy God, [even] for all this remnant; ( for we are

left [but] a few of many, as thine eyes do behold us: ) <all>

JER-42: 3 That the LORD thy God may show us the way wherein we

may walk, and the thing that we may do. <do> <god> <lord> <may>

JER-42: 4 Then Jeremiah the prophet said unto them, I have heard

[you] ; behold, I will pray unto the LORD your God according to

your words; and it shall come to pass, [that] whatsoever thing

the LORD shall answer you, I will declare [it] unto you; I will

keep nothing back from you. <answer> <back> <behold> <come>

JER-42: 5 Then they said to Jeremiah, The LORD be a true and

faithful witness between us, if we do not even according to all

things for the which the LORD thy God shall send thee to us.

JER-42: 6 Whether [it be] good, or whether [it be] evil, we will

obey the voice of the LORD our God, to whom we send thee; that

it may be well with us, when we obey the voice of the LORD our

God. <evil> <god> <good> <lord> <may> <obey> <or> <send> <voice>

JER-42: 7 And it came to pass after ten days, that the word of

the LORD came unto Jeremiah. <after> <came> <days> <jeremiah>

JER-42: 8 Then called he Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the

captains of the forces which [were] with him, and all the people

from the least even to the greatest, <all> <called> <captains>

JER-42: 9 And said unto them, Thus saith the LORD, the God of

Israel, unto whom ye sent me to present your supplication before

him; <before> <god> <him> <israel> <lord> <present> <said>

JER-42: 10 If ye will still abide in this land, then will I

build you, and not pull [you] down, and I will plant you, and

not pluck [you] up: for I repent me of the evil that I have done

unto you. <build> <done> <down> <evil> <have> <land> <plant>

JER-42: 11 Be not afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom ye are

afraid; be not afraid of him, saith the LORD: for I [am] with

you to save you, and to deliver you from his hand. <afraid>

JER-42: 12 And I will show mercies unto you, that he may have

mercy upon you, and cause you to return to your own land.

JER-42: 13 But if ye say, We will not dwell in this land,

neither obey the voice of the LORD your God, <dwell> <god>

JER-42: 14 Saying, No; but we will go into the land of Egypt,

where we shall see no war, nor hear the sound of the trumpet,

nor have hunger of bread; and there will we dwell: <bread>

<will>

JER-42: 15 And now therefore hear the word of the LORD, ye

remnant of Judah; Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of

Israel; If ye wholly set your faces to enter into Egypt, and go

to sojourn there; <egypt> <enter> <faces> <go> <god> <hear>

JER-42: 16 Then it shall come to pass, [that] the sword, which

ye feared, shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt, and

the famine, whereof ye were afraid, shall follow close after you

there in Egypt; and there ye shall die. <afraid> <after> <close>

JER-42: 17 So shall it be with all the men that set their faces

to go into Egypt to sojourn there; they shall die by the sword,

by the famine, and by the pestilence: and none of them shall

remain or escape from the evil that I will bring upon them.

JER-42: 18 For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel;

As mine anger and my fury hath been poured forth upon the

inhabitants of Jerusalem; so shall my fury be poured forth upon

you, when ye shall enter into Egypt: and ye shall be an

execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach;

and ye shall see this place no more. <anger> <astonishment>

JER-42: 19 The LORD hath said concerning you, O ye remnant of

Judah; Go ye not into Egypt: know certainly that I have

admonished you this day. <certainly> <concerning> <day> <egypt>

<this>

JER-42: 20 For ye dissembled in your hearts, when ye sent me

unto the LORD your God, saying, Pray for us unto the LORD our

God; and according unto all that the LORD our God shall say, so

declare unto us, and we will do [it] . <all> <declare>

JER-42: 21 And [now] I have this day declared [it] to you; but

ye have not obeyed the voice of the LORD your God, nor any

[thing] for the which he hath sent me unto you. <any> <day>

JER-42: 22 Now therefore know certainly that ye shall die by the

sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, in the place

whither ye desire to go [and] to sojourn. <certainly> <desire>

JER-43: 1 And it came to pass, [that] when Jeremiah had made an

end of speaking unto all the people all the words of the LORD

their God, for which the LORD their God had sent him to them,

[even] all these words, <all> <came> <end> <even> <god> <had>

JER-43: 2 Then spake Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan

the son of Kareah, and all the proud men, saying unto Jeremiah,

Thou speakest falsely: the LORD our God hath not sent thee to

say, Go not into Egypt to sojourn there: <all> <azariah> <egypt>

JER-43: 3 But Baruch the son of Neriah setteth thee on against

us, for to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they

might put us to death, and carry us away captives into Babylon.

JER-43: 4 So Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of

the forces, and all the people, obeyed not the voice of the LORD,

to dwell in the land of Judah. <all> <captains> <dwell>

JER-43: 5 But Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of

the forces, took all the remnant of Judah, that were returned

from all nations, whither they had been driven, to dwell in the

land of Judah; <all> <been> <captains> <driven> <dwell> <forces>

JER-43: 6 [Even] men, and women, and children, and the king's

daughters, and every person that 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.

<women>

JER-43: 7 So they came into the land of Egypt: for they obeyed

not the voice of the LORD: thus came they [even] to Tahpanhes.

JER-43: 8 Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah in

Tahpanhes, saying, <came> <jeremiah> <lord> <saying> <tahpanhes>

JER-43: 9 Take great stones in thine hand, and hide them in the

clay in the brickkiln, which [is] at the entry of Pharaoh's

house in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the men of Judah;

JER-43: 10 And say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the

God of Israel; Behold, I will send and take Nebuchadrezzar the

king of Babylon, my servant, and will set his throne upon these

stones that I have hid; and he shall spread his royal pavilion

over them. <babylon> <behold> <god> <have> <hid> <hosts>

JER-43: 11 And when he cometh, he shall smite the land of Egypt,

[and deliver] such [as are] for death to death; and such [as

are] for captivity to captivity; and such [as are] for the sword

to the sword. <are> <captivity> <cometh> <death> <deliver>

JER-43: 12 And I will kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of

Egypt; and he shall burn them, and carry them away captives: and

he shall array himself with the land of Egypt, as a shepherd

putteth on his garment; and he shall go forth from thence in

peace. <array> <away> <burn> <captives> <carry> <egypt> <fire>

JER-43: 13 He shall break also the images of Bethshemesh, that

[is] in the land of Egypt; and the houses of the gods of the

Egyptians shall he burn with fire. <also> <bethshemesh> <break>

JER-44: 1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews

which dwell in the land of Egypt, which dwell at Migdol, and at

Tahpanhes, and at Noph, and in the country of Pathros, saying,

JER-44: 2 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Ye

have seen all the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and

upon all the cities of Judah; and, behold, this day they [are] a

desolation, and no man dwelleth therein, <all> <are> <behold>

JER-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, whom they knew not, [neither] they, ye, nor

your fathers. <anger> <because> <burn> <committed> <fathers>

JER-44: 4 Howbeit I sent unto you all my servants the prophets,

rising early and sending [them] , saying, Oh, do not this

abominable thing that I hate. <all> <do> <early> <hate>

JER-44: 5 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear to turn

from their wickedness, to burn no incense unto other gods.

JER-44: 6 Wherefore my fury and mine anger was poured forth, and

was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of

Jerusalem; and they are wasted [and] desolate, as at this day.

JER-44: 7 Therefore now thus saith the LORD, the God of hosts,

the God of Israel; Wherefore commit ye [this] great evil against

your souls, to cut off from you man and woman, child and

suckling, out of Judah, to leave you none to remain; <against>

<your>

JER-44: 8 In that ye provoke me unto wrath with the works of

your hands, burning incense unto other gods in the land of Egypt,

whither ye be gone to dwell, that ye might cut yourselves off,

and that ye might be a curse and a reproach among all the

nations of the earth? <all> <among> <burning> <curse> <cut>

JER-44: 9 Have ye 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 have committed in the land of Judah, and in

the streets of Jerusalem? <committed> <fathers> <forgotten>

JER-44: 10 They are not humbled [even] unto this day, neither

have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes, that

I set before you and before your fathers. <are> <before> <day>

JER-44: 11 Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of

Israel; Behold, I will set my face against you for evil, and to

cut off all Judah. <against> <all> <behold> <cut> <evil> <face>

JER-44: 12 And I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set

their faces to go into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, and

they shall all be consumed, [and] fall in the land of Egypt;

they shall [even] be consumed by the sword [and] by the famine:

they shall die, from the least even unto the greatest, by the

sword and by the famine: and they shall be an execration, [and]

an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach. <all>

JER-44: 13 For I will punish them that dwell in the land of

Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine,

and by the pestilence: <dwell> <egypt> <famine> <have>

<will>

JER-44: 14 So that none of the remnant of Judah, which are gone

into the land of Egypt to sojourn there, shall escape or remain,

that they should return into the land of Judah, to the which

they have a desire to return to dwell there: for none shall

return but such as shall escape. <are> <desire> <dwell> <egypt>

JER-44: 15 Then all the men which knew that their wives had

burned incense unto other gods, and all the women that stood by,

a great multitude, even all the people that dwelt in the land of

Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying, <all> <answered>

JER-44: 16 [As for] the word that thou hast spoken unto us in

the name of the LORD, we will not hearken unto thee. <hast>

JER-44: 17 But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth

out of our own mouth, to burn incense unto the queen of heaven,

and to pour out drink offerings unto 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] had we plenty

of victuals, and were well, and saw no evil. <burn> <certainly>

<will>

JER-44: 18 But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of

heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted

all [things] , and have been consumed by the sword and by the

famine. <all> <been> <burn> <consumed> <drink> <famine> <have>

JER-44: 19 And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven,

and poured out drink offerings unto her, did we make her cakes

to worship her, and pour out drink offerings unto her, without

our men? <burned> <cakes> <did> <drink> <heaven> <incense>

JER-44: 20 Then Jeremiah said unto all the people, to the men,

and to the women, and to all the people which had given him

[that] answer, saying, <all> <answer> <given> <had> <him>

JER-44: 21 The incense that ye burned in the cities of Judah,

and in the streets of Jerusalem, ye, and your fathers, your

kings, and your princes, and the people of the land, did not the

LORD remember them, and came it [not] into his mind? <burned>

JER-44: 22 So that the LORD could no longer bear, because of the

evil of your doings, [and] because of the abominations which ye

have committed; therefore is your land a desolation, and an

astonishment, and a curse, without an inhabitant, as at this day.

<your>

JER-44: 23 Because ye have burned incense, and because ye have

sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed the voice of the

LORD, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his

testimonies; therefore this evil is happened unto you, as at

this day. <against> <because> <burned> <day> <evil> <happened>

JER-44: 24 Moreover Jeremiah said unto all the people, and to

all the women, Hear the word of the LORD, all Judah that [are]

in the land of Egypt: <all> <are> <egypt> <hear> <jeremiah>

JER-44: 25 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel,

saying; Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and

fulfilled with your hand, saying, We will surely perform our

vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven,

and to pour out drink offerings unto her: ye will surely

accomplish your vows, and surely perform your vows. <both>

JER-44: 26 Therefore hear ye the word of the LORD, all Judah

that dwell in the land of Egypt; Behold, I have sworn by my

great name, saith the LORD, that my name shall no more be named

in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt,

saying, The Lord GOD liveth. <all> <any> <behold> <dwell>
