Berean Standard Bible
And
Pashhur son of Immer the priest
--
who
also
`is'
overseer,
leader
in the house of Jehovah
--
heareth
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,
and
Pashhur
smiteth
Jeremiah the prophet ,
and putteth
him
unto
the stocks ,
that
`are'
by
the high
gate of Benjamin, that
`is'
by the house of Jehovah
.
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
.
and
it
cometh
to
pass
on
the morrow
, that
Pashhur bringeth
out
Jeremiah from the stocks, and
Jeremiah saith
unto
him, `
Not Pashhur hath
Jehovah
called
thy
name
, but --
Magor-Missabib.
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
said
Jehovah
: Lo,
I am
making
thee
for
a fear
to thyself,
And to all loving
thee,
And
they have
fallen
by the sword of their enemies ,
and
thine
eyes are
beholding,
And all
Judah
I give
into
the
hand of
the king of Babylon, And he hath
removed
them to Babylon ,
And he
hath
smitten
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.
And
I have
given
all the strength
of this city ,
And
all its labour,
and all
its
precious
things,
Yea
, all the treasures of the kings of Judah I
do
give
into
the
hand
of
their enemies ,
And
they have
spoiled
them, and
taken
them, And have
brought
them into
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.
And thou
, Pashhur, and all dwelling
in thy
house, Do
go into captivity. and
Babylon thou
dost
enter
, And there thou
diest,
and there
thou
art
buried ,
Thou
and all loving
thee,
To whom thou
hast
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
. ’”
Thou
hast
persuaded
me, O Jehovah
, and I am
persuaded;
Thou
hast
hardened
me ,
and dost
prevail,
I have
been
for
a laughter
all the
day ,
Every
one
is
mocking
at
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 .
Because
from
the
time
I speak I cry out ,
`
Violence and destruction ,'
I
cry,
For the word of Jehovah
hath
been
to me For
reproach and for
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
.
And
I said
, `
I do
not mention Him ,
Nor
do
I
speak any more in His name, '
And
it
hath
been
in my heart As
a
burning
fire
shut up in my bones, And I have
been
weary of containing
, And I am
not
able
.
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 evil
report
of many ,
Fear
`is'
round
about
: `Declare,
and
we
declare
it,'
All mine
allies
are
watching
`
for '
my halting,
`
Perhaps he is
enticed,
and
we prevail over
him ,
And we
take our vengeance out
of
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. ”
And
Jehovah
`
is '
with me ,
as
a terrible
mighty
one,
Therefore my persecutors stumble and prevail
not ,
They have been
exceedingly
ashamed
, For
they have
not
acted
wisely
, Confusion
age-during
is
not
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.
And,
O Jehovah
of Hosts, trier
of
the righteous, Beholder
of
reins
and
heart, I
do
see Thy
vengeance out
of
them, For unto
Thee
I have 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 ye
to Jehovah,
praise Jehovah,
For He hath
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 `is'
the day in
which
I was born ,
The day that
my mother bare
me ,
Let
it
not
be blessed !
Cursed be
the day I was born !
May
the day my mother bore
me never
be blessed .
Cursed `is'
the man who bore
tidings
`to'
my father, saying, `
Born to thee
hath
been
a
child
--
a
male
, '
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.
Then
hath
that man been
as
the cities ,
That Jehovah
overthrew ,
and
repented
not,
And
he hath
heard
a
cry
at
morning ,
And a shout
at time
of
noon .
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 hath
not put
me to
death
from
the womb ,
And
my mother is
to
me
--
my grave, And her womb a
pregnancy
age-during
.
because he did
not kill
me in
the womb so
that
my mother might
have
been
my grave, and her womb forever
enlarged
.
Why `is'
this?
from
the
womb
I have
come out ,
To see labour
and sorrow, Yea,
consumed
in
shame
are
my days !
Why did
I come out of
the
womb
to see only
trouble
and sorrow, and
to
end
my days in
shame?
