Jeremiah 1

1. The words <1697 dabar > of Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > the son

<1121 ben > of Hilkiah <2518 Chilqiyah >, of the priests <3548

kohen

> that [were] in Anathoth <6068 <Anathowth > in the land <0776

>erets > of Benjamin <1144 Binyamiyn >:

2 To whom <0834 >aher > the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > came <1961 hayah > in the days <3117 yowm > of Josiah

<2977 Yo>shiyah > the son <1121 ben > of Amon <0526 >Amown > king

<4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, in the thirteenth year

<8141 shaneh > of his reign <4427 malak >.

3 It came <1961 hayah > also in the days <3117 yowm > of

Jehoiakim

<3079 Y@howyaqiym > the son <1121 ben > of Josiah <2977

Yo>shiyah >

king <4428 melek > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, unto the end <8537

tom

> of the eleventh year <8141 shaneh > of Zedekiah <6667

Tsidqiyah >

the son <1121 ben > of Josiah <2977 Yo>shiyah > king <4428 melek

of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, unto the carrying <1540 galah > away

Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > captive <1540 galah > in the fifth

<2549 chamiyshiy > month <2320 chodesh >.

4. Then the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came

<1961 hayah > unto me, saying <0559 >amar >,

5 Before <2962 terem > I formed <3335 yatsar > thee in the belly

<0990 beten > I knew <3045 yada< > thee; and before <2962 terem >

thou camest <3318 yatsa> > forth <3318 yatsa> > out of the womb

<7358 rechem > I sanctified <6942 qadash > thee, [and] I ordained

<5414 nathan > thee a prophet <5030 nabiy> > unto the nations

<1471

gowy >.

6 Then said <0559 >amar > I, Ah <0162 >ahahh >, Lord <0136

>Adonay

> GOD <3069 Y@hovih >! behold <2009 hinneh >, I cannot <3808 lo>

speak <1696 dabar >: for I [am] a child <5288 na<ar >.

7 But the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto me, Say

<0559 >amar > not, I [am] a child <5288 na<ar >: for thou shalt

<3212 yalak > to all <3605 kol > that I shall send <7971 shalach

thee, and whatsoever I command <6680 tsavah > thee thou shalt

speak

<1696 dabar >.

8 Be not afraid <3372 yare> > of their faces <6440 paniym >:

for I

[am] with thee to deliver <5337 natsal > thee, saith <5002 n@>um

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

9 Then the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > put <7971 shalach > forth <7971

shalach > his hand <3027 yad >, and touched <5060 naga< > my

mouth

<6310 peh >. And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto

me, Behold <2009 hinneh >, I have put <5414 nathan > my words

<1697

dabar > in thy mouth <6310 peh >.

10 See <7200 ra>ah >, I have this <2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm >

set

<6485 paqad > thee over <5921 <al > the nations <1471 gowy > and

over <5921 <al > the kingdoms <4467 mamlakah >, to root <5428

nathash > out, and to pull <5422 nathats > down, and to destroy

<6>,

and to throw <2040 harac > down <2040 harac >, to build <1129

banah

>, and to plant <5193 nata< >.

11. Moreover the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

came <1961 hayah > unto me, saying <0559 >amar >, Jeremiah <3414

Yirm@yah >, what <4100 mah > seest <7200 ra>ah > thou? And I said

<0559 >amar >, I see <7200 ra>ah > a rod <4731 maqqel > of an

almond

<8247 shaqed > tree.

12 Then said <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > unto me,

Thou

hast well <3190 yatab > seen <7200 ra>ah >: for I will hasten

<8245

shaqad > my word <1697 dabar > to perform <6213 <asah > it.

13 And the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came

<1961 hayah > unto me the second <8145 sheniy > time, saying

<0559

>amar >, What <4100 mah > seest <7200 ra>ah > thou? And I said

<0559

>amar >, I see <7200 ra>ah > a seething <5301 naphach > pot <5518

ciyr >; and the face <6440 paniym > thereof [is] toward <6440

paniym

> the north <6828 tsaphown >.

14 Then the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto me,

Out of

the north <6828 tsaphown > an evil <7451 ra< > shall break <6605

pathach > forth upon all <3605 kol > the inhabitants <3427

yashab >

of the land <0776 >erets >.

15 For, lo <2009 hinneh >, I will call <7121 qara> > all <3605

kol

> the families <4940 mishpachah > of the kingdoms <4467 mamlakah

of the north <6828 tsaphown >, saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah >; and they shall come <0935 bow> >, and they shall set

<5414 nathan > every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > his throne

<3678 kicce> > at the entering <6607 pethach > of the gates <8179

sha<ar > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, and against <5921

<al >

all <3605 kol > the walls <2346 chowmah > thereof round <5439

cabiyb

> about, and against <5921 <al > all <3605 kol > the cities <5892

<iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >.

16 And I will utter <1696 dabar > my judgments <4941 mishpat >

against <5921 <al > them touching <5921 <al > all <3605 kol >

their

wickedness <7451 ra< >, who have forsaken <5800 <azab > me, and

have

burned <6999 qatar > incense <6999 qatar > unto other <0312

>acher >

gods <0430 >elohiym >, and worshipped <7812 shachah > the works

<4639 ma<aseh > of their own <0249 >ezrach > hands <3027 yad >.

17 Thou therefore gird <2296 chagar > up thy loins <4975 mothen

and arise <6965 quwm >, and speak <1696 dabar > unto them all

<3605

kol > that I command <6680 tsavah > thee: be not dismayed <2865

chathath > at their faces <6440 paniym >, lest <6435 pen > I

confound <2865 chathath > thee before <6440 paniym > them.

18 For, behold <2009 hinneh >, I have made <5414 nathan > thee

this

day <3117 yowm > a defenced <4013 mibtsar > city <5892 <iyr >,

and

an iron <1270 barzel > pillar <5982 <ammuwd >, and brasen <5178

n@chosheth > walls <2346 chowmah > against <5921 <al > the whole

<3605 kol > land <0776 >erets >, against the kings <4428 melek >

Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, against the princes <8269 sar > thereof,

against the priests <3548 kohen > thereof, and against the people

<5971 <am > of the land <0776 >erets >.

19 And they shall fight <3898 lacham > against <0413 >el > thee;

but they shall not prevail <3201 yakol > against thee; for I [am]

with thee, saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, to

deliver

<5337 natsal > thee.

Jeremiah 2

1. Moreover the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

came

<1961 hayah > to me, saying <0559 >amar >,

2 Go <1980 halak > and cry <7121 qara> > in the ears <0241

>ozen >

of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, saying <0559 >amar >, Thus

<3541

koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >; I remember

<2142

zakar > thee, the kindness <2617 checed > of thy youth <5271

na<uwr

when thou wentest <3212 yalak > after <0310 >achar > me in the

wilderness <4057 midbar >, in a land <0776 >erets > [that was]

not

sown <2232 zara< >.

3 Israel <3478 Yisra>el > [was] holiness <6944 qodesh > unto the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, [and] the firstfruits <7225 re>shiyth > of

his

increase <8393 t@buw>ah >: all <3605 kol > that devour <0398

>akal >

him shall offend <0816 >asham >; evil <7451 ra< > shall come

<0935

bow> > upon them, saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

4 Hear <8085 shama< > ye the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD

<3068

Y@hovah >, O house <1004 bayith > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob >, and

all

<3605 kol > the families <4940 mishpachah > of the house <1004

bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el >:

5 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >,

What <4100 mah > iniquity <5766 <evel > have your fathers <1>

found

<4672 matsa> > in me, that they are gone far <7368 rachaq > from

me,

and have walked <3212 yalak > after <0310 >achar > vanity <1892

hebel >, and are become <1891 habal > vain <1891 habal >?

6 Neither <3808 lo> > said <0559 >amar > they, Where <0346

>ayeh >

[is] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > that brought <5927 <alah > us up

out

of the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, that led

<3212 yalak > us through the wilderness <4057 midbar >, through a

land <0776 >erets > of deserts <6160 <arabah > and of pits <7745

shuwchah >, through a land <0776 >erets > of drought <6723

tsiyah >,

and of the shadow <6757 tsalmaveth > of death <6757 tsalmaveth >,

through a land <0776 >erets > that no <3808 lo> > man <0376

>iysh >

passed <5674 <abar > through, and where <8033 sham > no <3808

lo> >

man <0120 >adam > dwelt <3427 yashab >?

7 And I brought <0935 bow> > you into <0413 >el > a plentiful

<3759

karmel > country <0776 >erets >, to eat <0398 >akal > the fruit

<6529 p@riy > thereof and the goodness <2898 tuwb > thereof; but

when ye entered <0935 bow> >, ye defiled <2930 tame> > my land

<0776

>erets >, and made <7760 suwm > mine heritage <5159 nachalah > an

abomination <8441 tow<ebah >.

8 The priests <3548 kohen > said <0559 >amar > not, Where <0346

>ayeh > [is] the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >? and they that handle <8610

taphas > the law <8451 towrah > knew <3045 yada< > me not: the

pastors <7462 ra<ah > also transgressed <6586 pasha< > against

me,

and the prophets <5030 nabiy> > prophesied <5012 naba> > by Baal

<1168 Ba<al >, and walked <1980 halak > after <0310 >achar >

[things

that] do not profit <3276 ya<al >.

9. Wherefore <3651 ken > I will yet <5750 <owd > plead <7378

riyb >

with you, saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and with

your children's <1121 ben > children <1121 ben > will I plead

<7378

riyb >.

10 For pass <5674 <abar > over <5674 <abar > the isles <0339

of Chittim <3794 Kittiy >, and see <7200 ra>ah >; and send <7971

shalach > unto Kedar <6938 Qedar >, and consider <0995 biyn >

diligently <3966 m@<od >, and see <7200 ra>ah > if there be such

<2063 zo>th > a thing.

11 Hath a nation <1471 gowy > changed <4171 muwr > [their] gods

<0430 >elohiym >, which <1992 hem > [are] yet no <3808 lo> > gods

<0430 >elohiym >? but my people <5971 <am > have changed <4171

muwr

> their glory <3519 kabowd > for [that which <1992 hem >] doth

not

profit <3276 ya<al >.

12 Be astonished <8074 shamem >, O ye heavens <8064 shamayim >,

<5921 <al > this <2063 zo>th >, and be horribly <8175 sa<ar >

afraid

<8175 sa<ar >, be ye very <3966 m@<od > desolate <2717 charab >,

saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

13 For my people <5971 <am > have committed <6213 <asah > two

<8147

sh@nayim > evils <7451 ra< >; they have forsaken <5800 <azab > me

the fountain <4726 maqowr > of living <2416 chay > waters <4325

mayim >, [and] hewed <2672 chatsab > them out cisterns <0877

bo>r >,

broken <7665 shabar > cisterns <0877 bo>r >, that can hold <3557

kuwl > no <3808 lo> > water <4325 mayim >.

14. [Is] Israel <3478 Yisra>el > a servant <5650 <ebed >? [is]

he a

homeborn <1004 bayith > [slave]? why <4069 madduwa< > is he

spoiled

<0957 baz >?

15 The young <3715 k@phiyr > lions <3715 k@phiyr > roared <7580

sha>ag > upon him, [and] yelled, and they made <7896 shiyth > his

land <0776 >erets > waste <8047 shammah >: his cities <5892 <iyr

are burned <3341 yatsath > without <1097 b@liy > inhabitant <3427

yashab >.

16 Also <1571 gam > the children <1121 ben > of Noph <5297 Noph

and Tahapanes <8471 Tachpanchec > have broken <7462 ra<ah > the

crown <6936 qodqod > of thy head <6936 qodqod >.

17 Hast thou not procured <6213 <asah > this <2063 zo>th > unto

thyself, in that thou hast forsaken <5800 <azab > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah > thy God <0430 >elohiym >, when <6256 <eth > he led

<3212

yalak > thee by the way <1870 derek >?

18 And now <6258 <attah > what <4100 mah > hast thou to do in

the

way <1870 derek > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, to drink <8354

shathah

> the waters <4325 mayim > of Sihor <7883 Shiychowr >? or what

<4100

>Ashshuwr >, to drink <8354 shathah > the waters <4325 mayim > of

the river <5104 nahar >?

19 Thine own wickedness <7451 ra< > shall correct <3256 yacar >

thee, and thy backslidings <4878 m@shuwbah > shall reprove <3198

yakach > thee: know <3045 yada< > therefore and see <7200 ra>ah >

that [it is] an evil <7451 ra< > [thing] and bitter <4751 mar >,

that thou hast forsaken <5800 <azab > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

thy

God <0430 >elohiym >, and that my fear <6345 pachdah > [is] not

thee, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136 >Adonay > GOD <3069

Y@hovih

> of hosts <6635 tsaba> >.

20. For of old <5769 <owlam > time I have broken <7665 shabar >

thy

yoke <5923 <ol >, [and] burst <5423 nathaq > thy bands <4147

mowcer

<abad

hill

<1389 gib<ah > and under <8478 tachath > every <3605 kol > green

<7488 ra<anan > tree <6086 <ets > thou wanderest <6808 tsa<ah >,

playing the harlot <2181 zanah >.

21 Yet I had planted <5193 nata< > thee a noble vine <8321

soreq >,

wholly <3605 kol > a right <0571 >emeth > seed <2233 zera< >: how

<0349 >eyk > then art thou turned <2015 haphak > into the

degenerate

<5494 cuwr > plant of a strange <5237 nokriy > vine <1612 gephen

unto me?

22 For though <0518 >im > thou wash <3526 kabac > thee with

nitre

<5427 nether >, and take thee much <7235 rabah > soap <1287

boriyth

before <6440 paniym > me, saith <5002 n@>um > the Lord <0136

>Adonay

23 How <0349 >eyk > canst thou say <0559 >amar >, I am not

polluted

<2930 tame> >, I have not gone <1980 halak > after <0310 >achar >

Baalim <1168 Ba<al >? see <7200 ra>ah > thy way <1870 derek > in

the

valley <1516 gay> >, know <3045 yada< > what <4100 mah > thou

hast

done <6213 <asah >: [thou art] a swift <7031 qal > dromedary

<1072

bikrah > traversing <8308 sarak > her ways <1870 derek >;

24 A wild <6501 pere> > ass <6501 pere> > used <3928 limmuwd >

the wilderness <4057 midbar >, [that] snuffeth <7602 sha>aph > up

the wind <7307 ruwach > at her pleasure; in her occasion <8385

ta>anah > who <4310 miy > can turn <7725 shuwb > her away? all

kol > they that seek <1245 baqash > her will not weary <3286

ya<aph

25 Withhold <4513 mana< > thy foot <7272 regel > from being

unshod

<3182 yacheph >, and thy throat <1627 garown > from thirst <6773

tsim>ah >: but thou saidst <0559 >amar >, There is no hope <2976

ya>ash >: no <3808 lo> >; for I have loved <0157 >ahab >

strangers

<2114 zuwr >, and after <0310 >achar > them will I go <3212

yalak >.

26 As the thief <1590 gannab > is ashamed <1322 bosheth > when

<3588 kiy > he is found <4672 matsa> >, so <3651 ken > is the

house

<1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > ashamed <0954 buwsh >;

they, their kings <4428 melek >, their princes <8269 sar >, and

their priests <3548 kohen >, and their prophets <5030 nabiy> >,

27 Saying <0559 >amar > to a stock <6086 <ets >, Thou [art] my

father <1>; and to a stone <68>, Thou hast brought <3205 yalad >

forth <3205 yalad >: for they have turned <6437 panah > [their]

back

<6203 <oreph > unto me, and not [their] face <6440 paniym >: but

the time <6256 <eth > of their trouble <7451 ra< > they will say

<0559 >amar >, Arise <6965 quwm >, and save <3467 yasha< > us.

28 But where <0346 >ayeh > [are] thy gods <0430 >elohiym > that

thou hast made <6213 <asah > thee? let them arise <6965 quwm >,

they can save <3467 yasha< > thee in the time <6256 <eth > of thy

trouble <7451 ra< >: for [according to] the number <4557 micpar

thy cities <5892 <iyr > are thy gods <0430 >elohiym >, O Judah

<3063

Y@huwdah >.

29. Wherefore <4100 mah > will ye plead <7378 riyb > with me? ye

all <3605 kol > have transgressed <6586 pasha< > against me,

saith

<5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

30 In vain <7723 shav> > have I smitten <5221 nakah > your

children

<1121 ben >; they received <3947 laqach > no <3808 lo> >

correction

<4148 muwcar >: your own sword <2719 chereb > hath devoured <0398

>akal > your prophets <5030 nabiy> >, like a destroying <7843

shachath > lion <0738 >ariy >.

31 O generation <1755 dowr >, see <7200 ra>ah > ye the word

<1697

dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >. Have I been <1961 hayah > a

wilderness <4057 midbar > unto Israel <3478 Yisra>el >? a land

<0776

>erets > of darkness <3991 ma>phel@yah >? wherefore <4069

madduwa< >

say <0559 >amar > my people <5971 <am >, We are lords <7300 ruwd

we will come <0935 bow> > no <3808 lo> > more <5750 <owd > unto

thee?

32 Can a maid <1330 b@thuwlah > forget <7911 shakach > her

ornaments <5716 <adiy >, [or] a bride <3618 kallah > her attire

<7196 qishshur >? yet my people <5971 <am > have forgotten <7911

shakach > me days <3117 yowm > without <0369 >ayin > number <4557

micpar >.

33 Why <4100 mah > trimmest <3190 yatab > thou thy way <1870

derek

ken >

hast thou also <1571 gam > taught <3925 lamad > the wicked <7451

34 Also <1571 gam > in thy skirts <3671 kanaph > is found <4672

matsa> > the blood <1818 dam > of the souls <5315 nephesh > of

the

poor <34> innocents <5355 naqiy >: I have not found <4672 matsa>

Jeremiah 3

1. They say <0559 >amar >, If a man <0376 >iysh > put <7971

hinneh >, [it was] without <8414 tohuw > form <8414 tohuw >, and

void <0922 bohuw >; and the heavens <8064 shamayim >, and they

[had]

no <0369 >ayin > light <0216 >owr >.

24 I beheld <7200 ra>ah > the mountains <2022 har >, and, lo

<2009

hinneh >, they trembled <7493 ra<ash >, and all <3605 kol > the

hills <1389 gib<ah > moved <7043 qalal > lightly <7043 qalal >.

25 I beheld <7200 ra>ah >, and, lo <2009 hinneh >, [there was]

<0369 >ayin > man <0120 >adam >, and all <3605 kol > the birds

<5775

<owph > of the heavens <8064 shamayim > were fled <5074 nadad >.

26 I beheld <7200 ra>ah >, and, lo <2009 hinneh >, the fruitful

<3759 karmel > place [was] a wilderness <4057 midbar >, and all

<3605 kol > the cities <5892 <iyr > thereof were broken <5422

nathats > down <5422 nathats > at the presence <6440 paniym > of

the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, [and] by his fierce <2740 charown > anger

<0639 >aph >.

27 For thus <3541 koh > hath the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559

desolate

<8077 sh@mamah >; yet will I not make <6213 <asah > a full end

<3615

28 For this <2063 zo>th > shall the earth <0776 >erets > mourn

black

<6937 qadar >: because I have spoken <1696 dabar > [it], I have

purposed <2161 zamam > [it], and will not repent <5162 nacham >,

neither <3808 lo> > will I turn <7725 shuwb > back <7725 shuwb >

from it.

29 The whole <3605 kol > city <5892 <iyr > shall flee <1272

barach

bowmen; they shall go <0935 bow> > into thickets <5645 <ab >, and

climb <5927 <alah > up upon the rocks <3710 keph >: every <3605

30 And [when] thou [art] spoiled <7703 shadad >, what <4100 mah

wilt thou do <6213 <asah >? Though <3588 kiy > thou clothest

<3847

labash > thyself with crimson <8144 shaniy >, though <3588 kiy >

thou deckest <5710 <adah > thee with ornaments <5716 <adiy > of

shalt thou make thyself fair <3302 yaphah >; [thy] lovers <5689

<agab > will despise <3988 ma>ac > thee, they will seek <1245

baqash

31 For I have heard <8085 shama< > a voice <6963 qowl > as of a

woman in travail <2470 chalah >, [and] the anguish <6869 tsarah

of her that bringeth <1069 bakar > forth her first <1069 bakar >

child, the voice <6963 qowl > of the daughter <1323 bath > of

Zion

<6726 Tsiyown >, [that] bewaileth <3306 yaphach > herself, [that]

spreadeth <6566 paras > her hands <3709 kaph >, [saying], Woe

wearied <5888 <ayeph > because of murderers <2026 harag >.

Jeremiah 5

1. Run <7751 shuwt > ye to and fro <7751 shuwt > through the

<1245 baqash > in the broad <7339 r@chob > places thereof, if

will pardon <5545 calach > it.

2 And though <0518 >im > they say <0559 >amar >, The LORD <3068

Y@hovah > liveth <2416 chay >; surely <0403 >aken > they swear

<7650

shaba< > falsely <8267 sheqer >.

3 O LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, [are] not thine eyes <5869 <ayin >

upon

the truth <0530 >emuwnah >? thou hast stricken <5221 nakah >

them,

but they have not grieved <2342 chuwl >; thou hast consumed <3615

<3947

laqach > correction <4148 muwcar >: they have made their faces

<6440

refused <3985 ma>en > to return <7725 shuwb >.

4 Therefore I said <0559 >amar >, Surely <0389 >ak > these <1992

they know <3045 yada< > not the way <1870 derek > of the LORD

5 I will get <3212 yalak > me unto the great <1419 gadowl > men,

and will speak <1696 dabar > unto them; for they have known <3045

yada< > the way <1870 derek > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, [and]

the

judgment <4941 mishpat > of their God <0430 >elohiym >: but these

<1992 hem > have altogether <3162 yachad > broken <7665 shabar >

the

yoke <5923 <ol >, [and] burst <5423 nathaq > the bonds <4147

mowcer

6 Wherefore a lion <0738 >ariy > out of the forest <3293 ya<ar >

shall slay <5221 nakah > them, [and] a wolf <2061 z@>eb > of the

cities <5892 <iyr >: every one that goeth <3318 yatsa> > out

<2007 hennah > shall be torn <2963 taraph > in pieces: because

7 How <0335 >ay > shall I pardon <5545 calach > thee for this

<2063

and sworn <7650 shaba< > by [them that are] no <3808 lo> > gods

<0430 >elohiym >: when I had fed them to the full <7646 saba< >,

they then committed <5003 na>aph > adultery <5003 na>aph >, and

assembled <1413 gadad > themselves by troops in the harlots <2181

8 They were [as] fed <2109 zuwn > horses <5483 cuwc > in the

9 Shall I not visit <6485 paqad > for these <0428 >el-leh >

10. Go <5927 <alah > ye up upon her walls <8284 sharah >, and

<3615 kalah >: take <5493 cuwr > away <5493 cuwr > her

battlements

11 For the house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > and

the

house <1004 bayith > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > have dealt very

treacherously <0898 bagad > against me, saith <5002 n@>um > the

LORD

<3068 Y@hovah >.

12 They have belied <3584 kachash > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >,

and

said <0559 >amar >, [It is] not he; neither <3808 lo> > shall

wind

<3541 koh > shall it be done <6213 <asah > unto them.

14 Wherefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah > God <0430 >elohiym > of hosts <6635 tsaba>

Because <3282 ya<an > ye speak <1696 dabar > this <2088 zeh >

saying <0559 >amar >, Peace <7965 shalowm >, peace <7965 shalowm

when [there is] no <0369 >ayin > peace <7965 shalowm >.

15 Were they ashamed <0954 buwsh > when <3588 kiy > they had

committed <6213 <asah > abomination <8441 tow<ebah >? nay <1571

16 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

Stand <5975 <amad > ye in the ways <1870 derek >, and see <7200

But they said <0559 >amar >, We will not walk <3212 yalak >

17 Also I set <6965 quwm > watchmen <6822 tsaphah > over <5921

18. Therefore <3651 ken > hear <8085 shama< >, ye nations <1471

rejected <3988 ma>ac > it.

20 To what <4100 mah > purpose cometh <0935 bow> > there to me

incense <3828 l@bownah > from Sheba <7614 Sh@ba> >, and the sweet

21 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

Behold <2009 hinneh >, a people <5971 <am > cometh <0935 bow> >

23 They shall lay hold <2388 chazaq > on bow <7198 qesheth > and

30 For the children <1121 ben > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > have

9 The wise <2450 chakam > [men] are ashamed <0954 buwsh >, they

dismayed <2865 chathath > and taken: lo <2009 hinneh >, they have

every <3605 kol > one from the least <6996 qatan > even unto the

14 Why do we sit <3427 yashab > still? assemble <0622 >acaph >

our

16 The snorting <5170 nachar > of his horses <5483 cuwc > was

17 For, behold <2005 hen >, I will send <7971 shalach > serpents

20 The harvest <7105 qatsiyr > is past <5674 <abar >, the summer

21 For the hurt <7667 sheber > of the daughter <1323 bath > of

Jeremiah 9

leave

for they [be] all <3605 kol > adulterers <5003 na>aph >, an

3 And they bend <1869 darak > their tongues <3956 lashown >

[like]

their bow <7198 qesheth > [for] lies <8267 sheqer >: but they are

not valiant <1396 gabar > for the truth <0530 >emuwnah > upon the

saith <5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

4 Take ye heed <8104 shamar > every <0376 >iysh > one <0376

6 Thine habitation <3427 yashab > [is] in the midst <8432 tavek

8 Their tongue <3956 lashown > [is as] an arrow <2671 chets >

10 For the mountains <2022 har > will I take <5375 nasa> > up a

weeping <1065 B@kiy > and wailing <5092 n@hiy >, and for the

11 And I will make <5414 nathan > Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >

13 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > saith <0559 >amar >, Because

16 The portion <2506 cheleq > of Jacob <3290 Ya<aqob > [is] not

1. The word <1697 dabar > that came <1961 hayah > to Jeremiah

this <2088 zeh > covenant <1285 b@riyth >,

4 Which <0834 >aher > I commanded <6680 tsavah > your fathers

in the day <3117 yowm > [that] I brought <3318 yatsa> > them

forth

<3318 yatsa> > out of the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714

Mitsrayim >, from the iron <1270 barzel > furnace <3564 kuwr >,

saying <0559 >amar >, Obey <8085 shama< > my voice <6963 qowl >,

and

do <6213 <asah > them, according to all <3605 kol > which <0834

<5971

5 That I may perform <6965 quwm > the oath <7621 sh@buw<ah >

which

<0834 >aher > I have sworn <7650 shaba< > unto your fathers <1>,

give <5414 nathan > them a land <0776 >erets > flowing <2100

with milk <2461 chalab > and honey <1706 d@bash >, as [it is]

this

<2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm >. Then answered <6030 <anah > I, and

said <0559 >amar >, So <0543 >amen > be it, O LORD <3068 Y@hovah

6 Then the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto me,

Proclaim <7121 qara> > all <3605 kol > these <0428 >el-leh >

words

<1697 dabar > in the cities <5892 <iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah

saying <0559 >amar >, Hear <8085 shama< > ye the words <1697

of this <2088 zeh > covenant <1285 b@riyth >, and do <6213 <asah

them.

7 For I earnestly protested <5749 <uwd > unto your fathers <1>

the day <3117 yowm > [that] I brought <5927 <alah > them up out

the land <0776 >erets > of Egypt <4714 Mitsrayim >, [even] unto

this

<2088 zeh > day <3117 yowm >, rising <7925 shakam > early <7925

<8085 shama< > my voice <6963 qowl >.

8 Yet they obeyed <8085 shama< > not, nor <3808 lo> > inclined

<5186 natah > their ear <0241 >ozen >, but walked <3212 yalak >

every <0376 >iysh > one <0376 >iysh > in the imagination <8307

sh@riyruwth > of their evil <7451 ra< > heart <3820 leb >:

therefore

I will bring <0935 bow> > upon them all <3605 kol > the words

<1697

but

they did <6213 <asah > [them] not.

9 And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559 >amar > unto me, A

conspiracy <7195 qesher > is found <4672 matsa> > among the men

<0376 >iysh > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, and among the

inhabitants

<3427 yashab > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >.

10 They are turned <7725 shuwb > back <7725 shuwb > to the

iniquities <5771 <avon > of their forefathers, which <0834 >aher

refused <3985 ma>en > to hear <8085 shama< > my words <1697

and they went <1980 halak > after <0310 >achar > other <0312

<1004

Judah <3063 Y@huwdah > have broken <6565 parar > my covenant

<1285

b@riyth > which <0834 >aher > I made <3772 karath > with their

fathers <1>.

11. Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

the

LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, Behold <2005 hen >, I will bring <0935

evil <7451 ra< > upon them, which <0834 >aher > they shall not be

able <3201 yakol > to escape <3318 yatsa> >; and though they

shall

cry <2199 za<aq > unto me, I will not hearken <8085 shama< > unto

them.

12 Then shall the cities <5892 <iyr > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >

and

inhabitants <3427 yashab > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim > go

<1980 halak >, and cry <2199 za<aq > unto the gods <0430

unto whom they offer incense <6999 qatar >: but they shall not

save

<3467 yasha< > them at all in the time <6256 <eth > of their

trouble

<7451 ra< >.

13 For [according to] the number <4557 micpar > of thy cities

<5892

<iyr > were thy gods <0430 >elohiym >, O Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >;

and

[according to] the number <4557 micpar > of the streets <2351

[even] altars <4196 mizbeach > to burn <6999 qatar > incense

14 Therefore pray <6419 palal > not thou for this <2088 zeh >

people <5971 <am >, neither <0408 >al > lift <5375 nasa> > up a

cry

<7440 rinnah > or prayer <8605 t@phillah > for them: for I will

not

hear <8085 shama< > [them] in the time <6256 <eth > that they cry

<7121 qara> > unto me for their trouble <7451 ra< >.

15 What <4100 mah > hath my beloved <3039 y@diyd > to do in mine

house <1004 bayith >, [seeing] she hath wrought <6213 <asah >

lewdness <4209 m@zimmah > with many <7227 rab >, and the holy

when

<3588 kiy > thou doest evil <7451 ra< >, then <0227 >az > thou

16 The LORD <3068 Y@hovah > called <7121 qara> > thy name <8034

hath kindled <3341 yatsath > fire <0784 >esh > upon it, and the

branches <1808 daliyah > of it are broken <7489 ra<a< >.

17 For the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >, that

planted <5193 nata< > thee, hath pronounced <1696 dabar > evil

<7451

ra< > against <5921 <al > thee, for the evil <7451 ra< > of the

house <1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > and of the house

they

have done <6213 <asah > against themselves <1992 hem > to

provoke me

to anger <3707 ka<ac > in offering incense <6999 qatar > unto

Baal

<1168 Ba<al >.

18. And the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > hath given me knowledge <3045

thou shewedst <7200 ra>ah > me their doings <4611 ma<alal >.

19 But I [was] like a lamb <3532 kebes > [or] an ox <0441

Let us

destroy <7843 shachath > the tree <6086 <ets > with the fruit

20 But, O LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >, that

judgest <8199 shaphat > righteously <6664 tsedeq >, that triest

<0974 bachan > the reins <3629 kilyah > and the heart <3820 leb

let me see <7200 ra>ah > thy vengeance <5360 n@qamah > on them:

unto thee have I revealed <1540 galah > my cause <7379 riyb >.

21 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

the

22 Therefore <3651 ken > thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar >

the

Jeremiah 13

1. Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >

unto me, Go <1980 halak > and get <7069 qanah > thee a linen

<6593

pishteh > girdle <0232 >ezowr >, and put <7760 suwm > it upon thy

loins <4975 mothen >, and put <7760 suwm > it not in water <4325

2 So I got <7069 qanah > a girdle <0232 >ezowr > according to

the

word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, and put <7760

suwm >

[it] on <5921 <al > my loins <4975 mothen >.

3 And the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came

<1961

hayah > unto me the second <8145 sheniy > time, saying <0559

4 Take <3947 laqach > the girdle <0232 >ezowr > that thou hast

got

<7069 qanah >, which <0834 >aher > [is] upon thy loins <4975

P@rath >, and hide <2934 taman > it there <8033 sham > in a hole

<5357 naqiyq > of the rock.

5 So I went <3212 yalak >, and hid <2934 taman > it by Euphrates

<6578 P@rath >, as the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > commanded <6680

tsavah >

me.

6 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass after <7093 qets > many

<7227

rab > days <3117 yowm >, that the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > said <0559

Euphrates

<6578 P@rath >, and take <3947 laqach > the girdle <0232 >ezowr >

from thence <8033 sham >, which <0834 >aher > I commanded <6680

tsavah > thee to hide <2934 taman > there <8033 sham >.

7 Then I went <3212 yalak > to Euphrates <6578 P@rath >, and

digged

<2658 chaphar >, and took <3947 laqach > the girdle <0232 >ezowr

from the place <4725 maqowm > where I had hid <2934 taman > it:

and,

behold <2009 hinneh >, the girdle <0232 >ezowr > was marred <7843

shachath >, it was profitable <6743 tsalach > for nothing.

8 Then the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came

<1961 hayah > unto me, saying <0559 >amar >,

9 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >,

After <3602 kakah > this manner <3541 koh > will I mar <7843

shachath > the pride <1347 ga>own > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >,

the great <7227 rab > pride <1347 ga>own > of Jerusalem <3389

10 This <2088 zeh > evil <7451 ra< > people <5971 <am >, which

refuse <3987 me>en > to hear <8085 shama< > my words <1697 dabar

which walk <1980 halak > in the imagination <8307 sh@riyruwth >

their heart <3820 leb >, and walk <1980 halak > after <0310

other <0312 >acher > gods <0430 >elohiym >, to serve <5647 <abad

them, and to worship <7812 shachah > them, shall even be as this

<2088 zeh > girdle <0232 >ezowr >, which <0834 >aher > is good

<6743

tsalach > for nothing.

11 For as the girdle <0232 >ezowr > cleaveth <1692 dabaq > to

the

loins <4975 mothen > of a man <0376 >iysh >, so <3651 ken > have

caused to cleave <1692 dabaq > unto me the whole <3605 kol >

house

<1004 bayith > of Israel <3478 Yisra>el > and the whole <3605

house <1004 bayith > of Judah <3063 Y@huwdah >, saith <5002

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >; that they might be unto me for a people

hear <8085 shama< >.

12. Therefore thou shalt speak <0559 >amar > unto them this

<2088

the

13 Then shalt thou say <0559 >amar > unto them, Thus <3541 koh >

saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, Behold <2005 hen >,

14 And I will dash <5310 naphats > them one <0376 >iysh >

but destroy <7843 shachath > them.

15 Hear <8085 shama< > ye, and give ear <0238 >azan >; be not

proud

16 Give <5414 nathan > glory <3519 kabowd > to the LORD <3068

17 But if <0518 >im > ye will not hear <8085 shama< > it, my

Jeremiah 14

Pray

13 Then said <0559 >amar > I, Ah <0162 >ahahh >, Lord <0136

14 And I will make [thee] to pass <5674 <abar > with thine

15. O LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, thou knowest <3045 yada< >: remember

16 Thy words <1697 dabar > were found <4672 matsa> >, and I did

20 And I will make <5414 nathan > thee unto this <2088 zeh >

26 And they shall come <0935 bow> > from the cities <5892 <iyr

Jeremiah 18

1. The word <1697 dabar > which <0834 >aher > came <1961 hayah

Jeremiah <3414 Yirm@yah > from the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, saying

3 Then I went <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > to the potter's

wrought <6213 <asah > a work <4399 m@la>kah > on <5921 <al > the

4 And the vessel <3627 k@liy > that he made <6213 <asah > of

clay

seemed

5 Then the word <1697 dabar > of the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > came

9 And [at what] instant <7281 rega< > I shall speak <1696 dabar

11. Now <6258 <attah > therefore go <4994 na> > to, speak <0559

15 Because <3588 kiy > my people <5971 <am > hath forgotten

his ears <0241 >ozen > shall tingle <6750 tsalal >.

4 Because they have forsaken <5800 <azab > me, and have

estranged

burned

Jeremiah 20

1. Now Pashur <6583 Pashchuwr > the son <1121 ben > of Immer

chief

2 Then Pashur <6583 Pashchuwr > smote <5221 nakah > Jeremiah

him in

3 And it came <1961 hayah > to pass on the morrow <4283

carry

and shall slay <5221 nakah > them with the sword <2719 chereb >.

5 Moreover I will deliver <5414 nathan > all <3605 kol > the

6 And thou, Pashur <6583 Pashchuwr >, and all <3605 kol > that

dwell <3427 yashab > in thine house <1004 bayith > shall go <3212

7. O LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, thou hast deceived <6601 pathah > me,

and I was deceived <6601 pathah >: thou art stronger <2388

8 For since <1767 day > I spake <1696 dabar >, I cried <2199

za<aq

<3068

Y@hovah > was made <1961 hayah > a reproach <2781 cherpah > unto

me,

and a derision <7047 qelec >, daily.

9 Then I said <0559 >amar >, I will not make mention <2142

of him, nor <3808 lo> > speak <1696 dabar > any more <5750 <owd

forbearing <3557 kuwl >, and I could <3201 yakol > not [stay].

10 For I heard <8085 shama< > the defaming <1681 dibbah > of

Peradventure

prevail <3201 yakol > against him, and we shall take <3947

laqach >

our revenge <5360 n@qamah > on him.

11 But the LORD <3068 Y@hovah > [is] with me as a mighty <1368

12 But, O LORD <3068 Y@hovah > of hosts <6635 tsaba> >, that

triest

<0974 bachan > the righteous <6662 tsaddiyq >, [and] seest <7200

13 Sing <7891 shiyr > unto the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, praise

16 And let that man <0376 >iysh > be as the cities <5892 <iyr >

Jeremiah 21

1. The word <1697 dabar > which <0834 >aher > came <1961 hayah >

5 And I myself <0589 >aniy > will fight <3898 lacham > against

Go <3381 yarad > down <3381 yarad > to the house <1004 bayith >

3 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >;

Execute <6213 <asah > ye judgment <4941 mishpat > and

7 And I will prepare <6942 qadash > destroyers <7843 shachath >

8 And many <7227 rab > nations <1471 gowy > shall pass <5674

17 But thine eyes <5869 <ayin > and thine heart <3820 leb >

21 I have not sent <7971 shalach > these prophets <5030 nabiy>

them to

Babylon <0894 Babel >.

2 One <0259 >echad > basket <1731 duwd > [had] very <3966 m@<od

And

I said <0559 >amar >, Figs <8384 t@>en >; the good <2896 towb >

[them]

up.

7 And I will give <5414 nathan > them an heart <3820 leb > to

8 And as the evil <7451 ra< > figs <8384 t@>en >, which <0834

Y@hovah

<3478

Yisra>el >; Let not your prophets <5030 nabiy> > and your

9 For they prophesy <5012 naba> > falsely <8267 sheqer > unto

in my name <8034 shem >: I have not sent <7971 shalach > them,

saith

<5002 n@>um > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >.

10 For thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068

Y@hovah

11 For I know <3045 yada< > the thoughts <4284 machashabah >

the LORD <3068 Y@hovah >, thoughts <4284 machashabah > of peace

12 Then shall ye call <7121 qara> > upon me, and ye shall go

15. Because <3588 kiy > ye have said <0559 >amar >, The LORD

17 Thus <3541 koh > saith <0559 >amar > the LORD <3068 Y@hovah

18 And I will persecute them with the sword <2719 chereb >, with
