JER-17:1 The sin of Judah [is] written with a pen of iron,
[and] with the
point of a diamond: [it is] graven upon the table of their heart,
and upon the
horns of your altars;
JER-17:2 Whilst their children remember their altars and their
groves by the
green trees upon the high hills.
JER-17:3 O my mountain in the field, I will give thy substance
[and] all thy
treasures to the spoil, [and] thy high places for sin,
throughout all thy
borders.
JER-17:4 And thou, even thyself, shalt discontinue from thine
heritage that I
gave thee; and I will cause thee to serve thine enemies in the
land which thou
knowest not: for ye have kindled a fire in mine anger, [which]
shall burn for
ever.
JER-17:5 Thus saith the LORD; Cursed [be] the man that trusteth
in man, and
maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.
JER-17:6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and
shall not see when
good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the
wilderness, [in] a
salt land and not inhabited.
JER-17:7 Blessed [is] the man that trusteth in the LORD, and
whose hope the
LORD is.
JER-17:8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and
[that]
spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when
heat cometh, but
her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of
drought,
neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
JER-17:9 The heart [is] deceitful above all [things], and
desperately wicked:
who can know it?
JER-17:10 I the LORD search the heart, [I] try the reins, even
to give every
man according to his ways, [and] according to the fruit of his
doings.
JER-17:11 [As] the partridge sitteth [on eggs], and hatcheth
[them] not; [so]
he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in
the midst of his
days, and at his end shall be a fool.
JER-17:12 A glorious high throne from the beginning [is] the
place of our
sanctuary.
JER-17:13 O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee
shall be ashamed,
[and] they that depart from me shall be written in the earth,
because they
have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.
JER-17:14 Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and
I shall be
saved: for thou [art] my praise.
JER-17:15 Behold, they say unto me, Where [is] the word of the
LORD? let it
come now.
JER-17:16 As for me, I have not hastened from [being] a pastor
to follow
thee: neither have I desired the woeful day; thou knowest: that
which came out
of my lips was [right] before thee.
JER-17:17 Be not a terror unto me: thou [art] my hope in the
day of evil.
JER-17:18 Let them be confounded that persecute me, but let not
me be
confounded: let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed:
bring upon them
the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.
JER-17:19 Thus said the LORD unto me; Go and stand in the gate
of the
children of the people, whereby the kings of Judah come in, and
by the which
they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem;
JER-17:20 And say unto them, Hear ye the word of the LORD, ye
kings of Judah,
and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter
in by these
gates:
JER-17:21 Thus saith the LORD; Take heed to yourselves, and
bear no burden on
the sabbath day, nor bring [it] in by the gates of Jerusalem;
JER-17:22 Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on
the sabbath day,
neither do ye any work, but hallow ye the sabbath day, as I
commanded your
fathers.
JER-17:23 But they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but
made their
neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction.
JER-17:24 And it shall come to pass, if ye diligently hearken
unto me, saith
the LORD, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city
on the sabbath
day, but hallow the sabbath day, to do no work therein;
JER-17:25 Then shall there enter into the gates of this city
kings and
princes sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and
on horses,
they, and their princes, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants
of Jerusalem:
and this city shall remain for ever.
JER-17:26 And they shall come from the cities of Judah, and
from the places
about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the
plain, and from
the mountains, and from the south, bringing burnt offerings, and
sacrifices,
and meat offerings, and incense, and bringing sacrifices of
praise, unto the
house of the LORD.
JER-17:27 But if ye will not hearken unto me to hallow the
sabbath day, and
not to bear a burden, even entering in at the gates of Jerusalem
on the
sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and
it shall
devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.
