Jeremiah 29b
17 Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>;
Behold <02005>, I will send <07971> upon them the sword <02719>,
the famine <07458>, and the pestilence <01698>, and will make
<05414> them like vile <08182> figs <08384>, that cannot <03808>
be eaten <0398>, they are so evil <07455>.
18 And I will persecute them with the sword <02719>, with the
famine <07458>, and with the pestilence <01698>, and will
deliver <05414> them to be removed <02189> to all <03605> the
kingdoms <04467> of the earth <0776>, to be a curse <0423>, and
an astonishment <08047>, and an hissing <08322>, and a reproach
<02781>, among all <03605> the nations <01471> whither I have
driven <05080> them:
19 Because they have not hearkened <08085> to my words <01697>,
saith <05002> the LORD <03068>, which <0834> I sent <07971>
unto them by my servants <05650> the prophets <05030>, rising
<07925> up early <07925> and sending <07971> [them]; but ye
would not hear <08085>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>.
20 Hear <08085> ye therefore the word <01697> of the LORD
<03068>, all <03605> ye of the captivity <01473>, whom <0834> I
have sent <07971> from Jerusalem <03389> to Babylon <0894>:
21 Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>,
the God <0430> of Israel <03478>, of Ahab <0256> the son
<01121> of Kolaiah <06964>, and of Zedekiah <06667> the son
<01121> of Maaseiah <04641>, which prophesy <05012> a lie
<08267> unto you in my name <08034>; Behold <02009>, I will
deliver <05414> them into the hand <03027> of Nebuchadrezzar
<05019> king <04428> of Babylon <0894>; and he shall slay
<05221> them before your eyes <05869>;
22 And of them shall be taken <03947> up a curse <07045> by
all <03605> the captivity <01546> of Judah <03063> which <0834>
[are] in Babylon <0894>, saying <0559>, The LORD <03068> make
<07760> thee like Zedekiah <06667> and like Ahab <0256>, whom
<0834> the king <04428> of Babylon <0894> roasted <07033> in the
fire <0784>;
23 Because they have committed <06213> villany <05039> in
Israel <03478>, and have committed <06213> adultery <05003> with
their neighbours <07453>' wives <0802>, and have spoken <01696>
lying <08267> words <01697> in my name <08034>, which <0834> I
have not commanded <06680> them; even I know <03045>, and [am] a
witness <05707>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>.
24. [Thus] shalt thou also speak <0559> to Shemaiah <08098> the
Nehelamite <05161>, saying <0559>,
25 Thus <03541> speaketh <0559> the LORD <03068> of hosts
<06635>, the God <0430> of Israel <03478>, saying <0559>,
Because thou hast sent <07971> letters <05612> in thy name
<08034> unto all <03605> the people <05971> that [are] at
Jerusalem <03389>, and to Zephaniah <06846> the son <01121> of
Maaseiah <04641> the priest <03548>, and to all <03605> the
priests <03548>, saying <0559>,
26 The LORD <03068> hath made <05414> thee priest <03548> in
the stead <08478> of Jehoiada <03111> the priest <03548>, that
ye should be officers <06496> in the house <01004> of the LORD
<03068>, for every man <0376> [that is] mad <07696>, and maketh
himself a prophet <05012>, that thou shouldest put <05414> him
in prison <04115>, and in the stocks <06729>.
27 Now <06258> therefore why <04100> hast thou not reproved
<01605> Jeremiah <03414> of Anathoth <06068>, which maketh
himself a prophet <05012> to you?
28 For therefore he sent <07971> unto us [in] Babylon <0894>,
saying <0559>, This <01931> [captivity is] long <0752>: build
<01129> ye houses <01004>, and dwell <03427> [in them]; and
plant <05193> gardens <01593>, and eat <0398> the fruit <06529>
of them.
29 And Zephaniah <06846> the priest <03548> read <07121> this
letter <05612> in the ears <0241> of Jeremiah <03414> the
prophet <05030>.
30 Then came <01961> the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> unto
Jeremiah <03414>, saying <0559>,
31 Send <07971> to all <03605> them of the captivity <01473>,
saying <0559>, Thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>
concerning <0413> Shemaiah <08098> the Nehelamite <05161>;
Because that Shemaiah <08098> hath prophesied <05012> unto you,
and I sent <07971> him not, and he caused you to trust <0982> in
a lie <08267>:
32 Therefore <03651> thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD
<03068>; Behold <02005>, I will punish <06485> Shemaiah <08098>
the Nehelamite <05161>, and his seed <02233>: he shall not have
<01961> a man <0376> to dwell <03427> among <08432> this <02088>
people <05971>; neither <03808> shall he behold <07200> the good
<02896> that I will do <06213> for my people <05971>, saith
<05002> the LORD <03068>; because <03588> he hath taught <01696>
rebellion <05627> against <05921> the LORD <03068>.
Jeremiah 30
1. The word <01697> that came <01961> to Jeremiah <03414> from
the LORD <03068>, saying <0559>,
2 Thus <03541> speaketh <0559> the LORD <03068> God <0430> of
Israel <03478>, saying <0559>, Write <03789> thee all <03605>
the words <01697> that I have spoken <01696> unto thee in a book
<05612>.
3 For, lo <02009>, the days <03117> come <0935>, saith <05002>
the LORD <03068>, that I will bring <07725> again <07725> the
captivity <07622> of my people <05971> Israel <03478> and Judah
<03063>, saith <0559> the LORD <03068>: and I will cause them to
return <07725> to the land <0776> that I gave <05414> to their
fathers <01>, and they shall possess <03423> it.
4 And these <0428> [are] the words <01697> that the LORD
<03068> spake <01696> concerning <0413> Israel <03478> and
concerning <0413> Judah <03063>.
5 For thus <03541> saith <0559> the LORD <03068>; We have
heard <08085> a voice <06963> of trembling <02731>, of fear
<06343>, and not of peace <07965>.
6 Ask <07592> ye now <04994>, and see <07200> whether <0518> a
man <02145> doth travail <03205> with child <03205>? wherefore
<04069> do I see <07200> every <03605> man <01397> with his
hands <03027> on <05921> his loins <02504>, as a woman in
travail <03205>, and all <03605> faces <06440> are turned
<02015> into paleness <03420>?
7 Alas <01945>! for that day <03117> [is] great <01419>, so
that none <0369> [is] like <03644> it: it [is] even the time
<06256> of Jacob's <03290> trouble <06869>; but he shall be
saved <03467> out of it.
8 For it shall come <01961> to pass in that day <03117>, saith
<05002> the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, [that] I will break
<07665> his yoke <05923> from off <05921> thy neck <06677>, and
will burst <05423> thy bonds <04147>, and strangers <02114>
shall no <03808> more <05750> serve <05647> themselves of him:
9 But they shall serve <05647> the LORD <03068> their God
<0430>, and David <01732> their king <04428>, whom <0834> I will
raise <06965> up unto them.
10. Therefore fear <03372> thou not, O my servant <05650> Jacob
<03290>, saith <05002> the LORD <03068>; neither <0408> be
dismayed <02865>, O Israel <03478>: for, lo <02009>, I will save
<03467> thee from afar <07350>, and thy seed <02233> from the
land <0776> of their captivity <07628>; and Jacob <03290> shall
return <07725>, and shall be in rest <08252>, and be quiet
