The word that hath
been

Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah ,
in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, --

`is'
the first year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon ,
--
The
which Jeremiah the prophet spake
unto
all the people of Judah, and
to
all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying ,
Which Jeremiah the prophet hath
spoken
concerning
all the people of Judah, even
unto
all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying :
From the thirteenth year of Josiah the
son of Amon king of Judah, even
unto this day ,
that
is
the
three and twentieth year ,
the word of the
LORD
hath
come
unto me, and I have

ye have not hearkened .
`
From the thirteenth year of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah, and
unto this day --
this
three and twentieth year --
hath
the word of Jehovah
been
unto me, and I speak
unto you, rising early and speaking ,
and
ye have not hearkened ;
And the
LORD
hath sent unto you all his servants the prophets, rising early and sending them;
but
ye have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear .
And Jehovah
hath sent unto you all His servants ,
the prophets, rising early and sending ,
and
ye have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear ,
saying:
They
said,
Turn ye
again
now
every
one
from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in
the land
that the
LORD
hath given unto
you and to your fathers for
ever
and
ever:
`
Turn back,
I
pray
you,
each
from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell on
the ground
that Jehovah
hath given to
you and to your fathers from
age
unto
age,
And go
not after other gods to serve them, and to worship
them, and
provoke me not
to anger with the works
of your hands ;
and I will
do you
no hurt.
And ye
do
not go
after other gods to serve them, and to bow
yourselves
to
them, nor
do
ye
provoke Me to anger with the work
of your hands ,
and I do no evil
to
you;
Yet
ye have not hearkened unto me ,
saith
the
LORD;
that
ye
might
provoke me to anger with the works
of your hands to your
own
hurt
.
And
ye have not hearkened unto Me --
an
affirmation
of
Jehovah
--
so
as
to
provoke Me to anger with the work
of your hands for
evil
to you
.
Therefore thus saith
the
LORD
of hosts ;
Because ye have not heard
my words,
`
Therefore thus said
Jehovah
of Hosts ,
Because that
ye have not obeyed
My words,
Behold
, I will
send
and take
all the families of the north ,
saith
the
LORD,
and
Nebuchadrezzar the
king of Babylon, my servant, and will
bring
them against this land, and against the
inhabitants thereof
, and against all these nations round about, and will
utterly
destroy
them, and make
them an astonishment, and an
hissing, and perpetual
desolations
.
Lo
, I am
sending,
and have
taken
all the families of the north --
an
affirmation
of
Jehovah
--
even
unto
Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, My servant, and have
brought
them in
against this land, and against its
inhabitants, and against all these nations round about, and have
devoted
them, and appointed
them for
an astonishment, and for
a
hissing, and for
wastes
age-during
.
Moreover
I will
take
from them the voice of mirth
, and the voice of gladness
, the
voice of the
bridegroom ,
and the
voice of the
bride, the
sound
of the
millstones, and the light of the
candle
.
And
I have
destroyed
from them the voice of rejoicing
, and the voice of joy
, voice of bridegroom and voice of bride, noise
of millstones, and the light of lamps
.
And this whole
land shall
be
a desolation
, and
an astonishment ;
and these nations shall
serve
the king of Babylon seventy years.
And all
this land hath
been
for
a waste
, for
an astonishment ,
and these nations have
served
the king of Babylon seventy years.
And it shall
come to pass, when
seventy years are
accomplished
, that
I will
punish
the king of Babylon, and that nation ,
saith
the
LORD,
for
their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans, and will
make
it perpetual
desolations.
`
And it hath
come to pass, at
the
fulness
of
seventy years, I charge
against
the king of Babylon, and against
that nation --
an
affirmation
of
Jehovah
--
their iniquity, and against
the land of the Chaldeans, and have
appointed
it for
desolations age-during
.
And I will
bring
upon
that land all my words which
I have pronounced
against it, even
all that is written in this book, which
Jeremiah hath prophesied against
all the nations.
And I have
brought
in
on
that land all My words that
I have spoken
against it, all that is written in this book, that
Jeremiah hath prophesied concerning
all the nations.
For many nations and great kings shall
serve
themselves
of
them
also:
and I will
recompense
them according to their deeds
, and according to the works
of their own
hands.
For laid
service
on
them
--
also
them
--
have
many nations and great kings ,
and I have
given
recompence
to
them according to their doing
, and according to the work
of their hands.
For thus saith
the
LORD
God of Israel unto me ;
Take the wine cup of this fury at
my hand, and cause
all the nations ,
to whom I send
thee ,
to
drink
it.
`
For thus said
Jehovah
God of Israel unto me ,
Take the wine cup of this fury out
of
My hand, and thou
hast
caused
all the nations to drink
it
unto
whom I am
sending
thee ;
And they shall
drink
, and be
moved,
and be
mad
, because of the sword that I will
send
among them.
And they have
drunk
, and shaken
themselves
and shewn
themselves
foolish
, because of the sword that I am
sending
among them.
Then
took
I the cup at
the LORD's
hand, and made
all the nations to drink ,
unto whom the
LORD
had
sent me:
`And
I take
the cup out
of
the hand of
Jehovah
, and cause
all the nations to drink unto whom Jehovah
sent me:
To
wit,
Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, and the
kings thereof
, and
the
princes
thereof
, to make
them a
desolation
, an
astonishment, an
hissing, and a
curse;
as it
is
this day ;
Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, And its
kings, its
heads
, To give
them to
waste
, to
astonishment, To
hissing, and to
reviling,
as `at'
this day .
Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, and his princes
, and all his people ;
Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, And his heads
, and all his people ,
And all the mingled
people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, and all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and Ashkelon, and Azzah
, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod,
And all the mixed
people, And all the kings of the land of Uz, And all the kings of the land of the Philistines, And Ashkelon, and Gazzah
, and Ekron, And the remnant of Ashdod,
Edom, and Moab, and the children
of Ammon,
Edom, and Moab, and the sons
of Ammon,
And all the kings of Tyrus
, and all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the isles
which
are
beyond the sea,
And all the kings of Tyre
, And all the kings of Zidon, And the kings of the isle
that
`is'
beyond the sea,
Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all that
are
in
the utmost
corners,
Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, And all cutting
the corners `of
the
beard'
,
And all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mingled
people that
dwell
in the desert
,
And all the kings of Arabia, And all the kings of the mixed
people ,
Who
are
dwelling
in the wilderness
,
And all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the
Medes
,
And all the kings of Zimri, And all the kings of Elam, And all the kings of Media
,
And all the kings of the north, far
and
near, one with
another, and all the kingdoms of the world
, which
are upon
the face of the earth:
and the
king of
Sheshach shall
drink
after them.
And all the kings of the north, The
near and
the
far
off
, one unto
another, And all the kingdoms of the earth
, That
`
are '
on
the face of the ground,
And king Sheshach drinketh
after them.
Therefore
thou shalt
say
unto them ,
Thus saith
the
LORD
of hosts ,
the
God of Israel ;
Drink ye, and
be
drunken
, and spue
, and fall, and rise no
more
, because of the sword which
I will
send
among you.
And
thou hast
said
unto them :
Thus said
Jehovah
of Hosts God of Israel ,
Drink ye, yea
drink
abundantly
, And vomit
, and fall, and rise not
, Because of the sword that
I am
sending
among you.
And it shall
be
, if
they refuse to take
the cup at
thine
hand to drink, then
shalt
thou say
unto them ,
Thus saith
the
LORD
of hosts ;
Ye shall
certainly drink.
And it hath
come
to
pass
, When
they refuse to receive
the cup out
of
thy
hand to drink, That
thou hast
said
unto them :
Thus said
Jehovah
of Hosts ,
Ye do
certainly drink.
For ,
lo, I
begin
to
bring
evil
on
the city which is
called
by
my name, and should
ye be
utterly
unpunished?
Ye shall
not be
unpunished:
for
I
will
call
for a sword upon
all the
inhabitants of the earth
, saith
the
LORD
of hosts.
For lo, in
the city over
which My name is
called
, I
am
beginning
to
do
evil,
And ye --
ye are
entirely
acquitted!
Ye
are
not acquitted,
for a sword I
am
proclaiming,
For
all inhabitants of the land
, An
affirmation
of Jehovah
of
Hosts.
Therefore
prophesy
thou against
them all these words, and say
unto them ,
The
LORD
shall
roar
from on
high, and utter
his
voice
from his holy habitation ;
he shall
mightily
roar
upon
his habitation ;
he
shall
give
a shout ,
as they
that
tread
the
grapes
, against
all the inhabitants of the earth.
And
thou ,
thou
dost
prophesy
unto
them all these words, and hast
said
unto them :
Jehovah
from the
high place
doth
roar
, And from His holy habitation giveth
forth
His
voice,
He surely
roareth
for
His habitation ,
A shout as of
treaders
down
, God
answereth
all the inhabitants of the land,
A
noise
shall
come even
to
the ends
of the earth ;
for the
LORD
hath
a controversy with the
nations, he will
plead
with
all flesh ;
he will
give
them that
are
wicked
to the sword, saith
the
LORD
.
Wasting
hath
come unto
the end
of the earth ,
For a controversy hath
Jehovah
with nations, He hath
executed
judgment
for
all flesh ,
The
wicked!
He hath
given
them to the sword, An
affirmation
of
Jehovah
.
Thus saith
the
LORD
of hosts ,
Behold
, evil shall
go
forth
from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall
be
raised
up from the coasts
of the earth.
Thus said
Jehovah
of Hosts :
Lo
, evil is
going
out
from nation to nation, And a great whirlwind is
stirred
up from the sides
of the earth.
And the slain
of the
LORD
shall
be
at
that day from one
end of the earth even unto the other
end of the earth :
they shall
not be
lamented, neither
gathered, nor buried ;
they
shall
be
dung upon
the ground.
And the pierced
of Jehovah
have
been
in
that day ,
From the
end of the earth even unto the end of the earth ,
They are
not lamented, nor
gathered, nor buried ,
For
dung on
the face
of
the
ground they
are
.
Howl, ye shepherds, and cry ;
and wallow
yourselves in
the
ashes
, ye principal
of the flock :
for the
days
of
your slaughter
and of
your dispersions
are
accomplished;
and ye shall
fall
like
a pleasant
vessel.
Howl, ye shepherds, and cry ,
And roll
yourselves, ye honourable
of the flock ,
For full
have
been
your days,
For
slaughtering,
and `for'
your scatterings,
And ye have
fallen
as
a desirable
vessel.
And the shepherds shall
have
no
way
to
flee
, nor
the principal
of the flock to
escape
.
And perished
hath
refuge
from
the shepherds, And
escape
from
the honourable
of the flock.
A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and an
howling of the principal
of the flock, shall
be
heard:
for the
LORD
hath
spoiled
their pasture.
A voice `is'
of the cry of the shepherds, And a
howling of the honourable
of the flock, For Jehovah
is
spoiling
their pasture.
And the peaceable habitations are
cut down because of the fierce
anger
of the LORD
.
And the peaceable habitations have
been
cut down ,
Because of the fierceness
of the anger
of
Jehovah
.
He hath forsaken his
covert
, as the
lion :
for
their land is
desolate
because of the fierceness of
the
oppressor
, and because of his fierce
anger .
He hath forsaken, as a
young
lion ,
His
covert,
Surely
their land hath
become
a
desolation,
Because of the oppressing
fierceness, And because of the
fierceness
of
His anger !
