Now Pashhur,
the son of Immer the priest, who was chief officer
in the house of Yahweh
, heard Jeremiah prophesying
these things.
Now Pashur
the son of Immer the priest, who was also
chief governor
in the house of the
LORD
, heard that
Jeremiah prophesied
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
.
Then Pashur
smote
Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the high
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.
And
it came
to
pass
on the morrow
, that Pashur
brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then said Jeremiah unto
him, The
LORD
hath
not called thy
name Pashur
, but Magormissabib.
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 thus saith
the
LORD
, Behold, I will make thee
a terror to thyself
, and to all thy
friends :
and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and thine
eyes shall behold
it :
and I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them captive into
Babylon, and shall slay
them with 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.
Moreover I will deliver
all the strength
of this city, and all the labours
thereof
, and all the precious things thereof
, and
all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies ,
which
shall spoil
them, and take them, and carry them 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
thou
, Pashur
, and all that
dwell in thine
house shall go into captivity :
and thou
shalt
come to Babylon, and there thou
shalt
die, and shalt
be buried there
, thou
, and all thy
friends, to whom thou
hast
prophesied 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.
O
LORD
, thou
hast
deceived
me, and I was deceived
; thou
art
stronger than I, and hast
prevailed: I am in
derision
daily
, every one mocketh
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 since
I spake
, I cried
out, I
cried
violence and spoil;
because the word of the
LORD
was
made a reproach unto
me, and a derision, daily
.
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]
.
Then
I said
, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name .
But
his
word
was
in mine
heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was
weary with forbearing, and I could
not
stay
.
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 heard the defaming of many, fear
on every side. Report
, say
they,
and we will report
it.
All my familiars
watched
for my halting,
saying,
Peradventure he will be enticed
, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on 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 as a
mighty terrible
one: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail :
they shall be greatly
ashamed;
for
they shall
not prosper:
their
everlasting confusion
shall 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.
But, O
LORD
of hosts, that
triest
the righteous, and
seest
the reins
and the heart
, let me see thy
vengeance on them :
for unto
thee
have I opened
my cause.
Sing to
Yahweh
, praise you
Yahweh;
for he has
delivered the soul of the needy
from the hand of evil-doers
.
Sing unto
the
LORD
, praise ye
the
LORD:
for he hath
delivered the soul of the poor
from the hand 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 wherein
I was born: let not
the day wherein
my mother bare
me 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 tidings
to my father, saying, A man child is born unto
thee
; making him very glad.
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
;
And
let that man be as the cities which the
LORD
overthrew, and repented
not
: and let him hear the
cry in the morning, and the
shouting at noontide
;
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 slew
me not
from the womb; or
that
my mother might
have been my grave, and her womb to
be
always great with
me
.
Why
came I forth out of the womb to see labor
and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
Wherefore
came I forth out of the womb to see labour
and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
