Now
Pashhur, the son of Immer the priest,
who
was
chief officer
in the house of Yahweh
, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things .
When
Pashhur the
priest
, the son of Immer and
the chief official
in the house of the
LORD
, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things ,
Then
Pashhur
struck
Jeremiah the prophet ,
and put him
in the stocks that
were
in
the upper gate of Benjamin, which was in
the house of Yahweh
.
he
had
Jeremiah the prophet beaten
and put in the stocks at
the Upper Gate of Benjamin, which was by
the house of the
LORD
.
It
happened
on
the next day, that
Pashhur brought
forth
Jeremiah out
of
the stocks .
Then
said
Jeremiah to him, Yahweh
has
not called
your
name
Pashhur, but Magormissabib
.
The next day, when
Pashhur released
Jeremiah from
the stocks ,
Jeremiah said
to him, “The
LORD
does
not call
you
Pashhur, but Magor-missabib
.
For thus
says Yahweh,
Behold,
I will make you a terror to yourself ,
and to all your friends ;
and
they shall
fall by the sword of their enemies ,
and
your eyes shall
see
it;
and I will give
all
Judah
into
the
hand of
the king of Babylon, and he shall
carry them captive
to Babylon ,
and shall
kill
them with
the sword.
For this
is
what
the
LORD
says :
‘
I will make you a terror to yourself and to all your friends .
They will
fall by the sword of their enemies before
your very
eyes .
And I will hand Judah
over
to
the king of Babylon, and he will
carry them away
to Babylon and put
them to
the sword.
Moreover
I will give all the riches
of this city ,
and
all the
gains
of
it,
and all
the
precious
things
of
it,
yes
, all the treasures of the kings of Judah will
I
give
into
the
hand
of
their enemies ;
and
they shall
make
them a
prey
, and
take
them, and carry them to Babylon.
I will give away
all the wealth
of this city —
all its
products
and valuables
, and
all the treasures of the kings of Judah —to
their enemies .
They will
plunder
them, seize
them, and carry them off
to Babylon.
You, Pashhur, and all who dwell
in your house shall
go into captivity ;
and
you shall
come
to Babylon, and there you shall
die ,
and there
shall
you
be buried ,
you ,
and all your friends ,
to whom you have prophesied falsely
.
And
you, Pashhur, and all who live
in your house ,
will
go into captivity .
You will
go
to Babylon, and there you will
die and be buried —
you and all your friends to whom you have prophesied these
lies
. ’”
Yahweh,
you have persuaded
me, and I was persuaded;
you are
stronger
than
I,
and
have prevailed :
I am become
a laughing-stock
all the
day ,
every
one
mocks me.
You have deceived
me, O
LORD,
and I was deceived.
You have overcome
me
and
prevailed .
I am a laughingstock
all day long;
everyone
mocks me.
For as
often
as
I speak, I cry out; I cry,
Violence and destruction !
because
the word of Yahweh
is
made
a
reproach
to me ,
and
a derision ,
all the
day.
For whenever
I speak, I cry out; I proclaim
violence and destruction .
For
the word of the
LORD
has
become
to me a reproach
and
derision all day long
.
If I say, I will not make
mention of
him ,
nor
speak any more in his name, then
there
is
in my heart as
it
were
a
burning
fire
shut up in my bones, and I am
weary with
forbearing
, and I can't
[contain]
.
If I say, “
I will not mention Him or
speak any more in His name, ”
His
message
becomes
a
fire
burning
in my heart ,
shut up in my bones, and I become
weary of
holding
it
in
, and I cannot
prevail
.
For I have heard the defaming
of many ,
terror on every side .
Denounce,
and
we
will
denounce
him ,
[say]
all my familiar
friends ,
those
who
watch for my fall ;
peradventure
he will be persuaded,
and
we shall
prevail against him ,
and we
shall
take our revenge
on
him.
For I have heard the whispering
of many :
“
Terror is
on every side !
Report
him ;
let
us
report
him!”
All my trusted
friends watch for my fall :
“Perhaps
he will be deceived
so
that
we may
prevail against him and take our vengeance
upon
him. ”
But Yahweh
is with me as
an
awesome
mighty
one:
therefore my persecutors shall
stumble ,
and they
shall
not prevail ;
they
shall
be
utterly
disappointed,
because
they have not dealt
wisely
, even
with an everlasting dishonor
which
shall
never be forgotten.
But the
LORD
is with me like
a
fearsome
warrior.
Therefore ,
my persecutors will
stumble and will
not prevail .
Since
they have not succeeded
, they
will
be
utterly
put
to
shame,
with an everlasting disgrace
that
will
never be forgotten.
But,
Yahweh
of Hosts, who tests
the righteous, who sees the heart and the
mind, let me see your vengeance on
them ;
for to you have
I revealed
my cause.
O
LORD
of Hosts, who examines
the righteous, who sees the heart and mind, let me see Your vengeance upon
them ,
for to You I have
committed
my cause.
Sing to Yahweh,
praise you
Yahweh;
for he has
delivered
the soul
of the needy from the hand
of evil-doers
.
Sing to the
LORD!
Praise the
LORD!
For He rescues
the life
of the needy from the hands
of evildoers
.
Cursed be the day in
which
I was born :
don't
let
the day in
which
my mother bore me be blessed.
Cursed be the day I was born !
May
the day my mother bore me never
be blessed.
Cursed be the man who brought news
to
my father, saying, A man-child
is born to you ;
making
him very
glad
.
Cursed be the man who brought my father the
news
, saying, “
A son
is born to you ,”
bringing
him great
joy
.
Let
that man be as
the cities which
Yahweh
overthrew ,
and
didn't
repent:
and
let
him
hear a
cry
in the morning ,
and shouting
at noontime;
May
that man be like
the cities that
the
LORD
overthrew without
compassion.
May
he
hear an
outcry
in the morning and a
battle
cry
at noon,
because he didn't
kill me from
the womb ;
and
so my mother would
have been my grave, and her womb always
great
.
because he did
not
kill me in
the womb so that
my mother might
have been my grave, and her womb forever
enlarged
.
Why came
I forth
out of the womb to see labor
and sorrow, that
my days should
be
consumed
with
shame?
Why did
I come
out of the womb to see only
trouble
and sorrow, and
to
end
my days in
shame?
