YLT
Young's Literal Translation
In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the
son of Josiah king of Judah came
this word unto Jeremiah from the
LORD
, saying,
In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah ,
king of Judah ,
hath
this word been
unto Jeremiah from Jehovah
, saying,
Thus saith
the
LORD
to
me ;
Make thee bonds
and yokes, and
put
them
upon
thy
neck,
`
Thus said
Jehovah
unto
me ,
Make to
thee bands
and yokes,
And send
them to
the king of Edom, and to
the king of Moab, and to
the king of the Ammonites
, and to
the king of Tyrus
, and to
the king of Zidon, by the hand of the
messengers which
come
to Jerusalem unto Zedekiah king of Judah;
And thou
hast
put
them on
thy
neck,
and
hast
sent
them
unto
the king of Edom, and unto
the king of Moab, and unto
the king of the sons
of
Ammon
, and unto
the king of Tyre
, and unto
the king of Zidon, by the hand of messengers who
are
coming
in
to Jerusalem ,
unto Zedekiah king of Judah;
And command
them to
say
unto
their masters
, Thus saith
the
LORD
of hosts, the
God of Israel ;
Thus
shall
ye
say
unto
your
masters;
And thou
hast
commanded
them for
their lords
, saying,
Thus said
Jehovah
of Hosts, God of Israel ,
I have made the earth ,
the
man and the beast
that are upon
the ground
, by my great power and by my outstretched
arm, and have given it unto
whom it seemed
meet
unto
me
.
Thus
do
ye
say
unto
your
lords,
I --
I
have made the earth with
man ,
and the cattle
that `
are '
on
the face
of
the
earth
, by My great power ,
and by My stretched-out
arm, and I
have given it to
whom it hath
been
right
in
Mine
eyes
.
And now have
I given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the
king of Babylon, my servant ;
and the beasts
of the field have
I given him also
to serve him .
`
And now ,
I --
I
have
given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, My servant ,
and also
the beast
of the field I have
given to
him to serve him ;
And all nations shall
serve
him
, and his son, and his son's son, until
the very
time of his land come:
and then
many nations and great kings shall
serve
themselves
of
him
.
And served
him
have
all the
nations, and his son, and his son's son, till
the coming
in
of
the
time of his land ,
also
it;
and done
service
for
him
have
many nations and great kings.
And it shall
come to pass, that
the nation and kingdom which
will
not serve the
same
Nebuchadnezzar the
king of Babylon ,
and that will
not put
their
neck under
the yoke of the king of Babylon, that
nation
will
I
punish,
saith
the
LORD,
with the
sword, and with the
famine, and with the
pestilence, until
I have
consumed
them by his hand.
And it hath
come to pass, the nation and the
kingdom that
do
not serve him
--
Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon --
and that which
putteth
not its
neck into
the yoke of the king of Babylon, with sword, and with famine, and with pestilence, I lay
a
charge
on
that
nation
--
an
affirmation
of
Jehovah
--
till
I
consume
them by his hand.
Therefore
hearken
not
ye to
your prophets, nor
to
your diviners, nor
to
your dreamers, nor
to
your enchanters
, nor
to
your sorcerers ,
which
speak
unto you, saying, Ye shall
not serve the king of Babylon :
`And
ye ,
ye
do
not
hearken
unto
your prophets, and
unto
your diviners, and
unto
your dreamers, and
unto
your observers
of
clouds
, and
unto
your sorcerers who
are
speaking
unto you, saying, Ye do
not serve the king of Babylon ,
--
For they prophesy
a
lie
unto
you, to remove you far from your land;
and that
I should
drive
you out, and ye should
perish
.
For falsehood
they are
prophesying
to
you, so
as
to remove you far from off
your ground,
and I have
driven
you out, and ye have
perished
.
But
the nations
that bring
their
neck under
the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve
him ,
those
will
I let
remain
still
in
their
own
land,
saith
the
LORD;
and they
shall
till
it, and dwell
therein
.
And
the nation
that causeth
its
neck to
enter
into
the yoke of the king of Babylon, and hath
served
him --
I have
left
it
on
its
ground
--
an
affirmation
of
Jehovah
--
and it hath
tilled
it
, and dwelt
in
it
. '
I
spake
also
to
Zedekiah king of Judah according to all these words, saying, Bring
your necks under
the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and live.
And
unto
Zedekiah king of Judah I
have
spoken
according to all these words, saying, `Cause
your necks to
enter
into
the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and live.
Why will
ye die, thou and thy people, by the
sword, by the
famine, and by the
pestilence, as the
LORD
hath spoken against
the nation that will
not serve the king of Babylon?
Why do
ye die, thou and thy people, by sword, by famine, and by pestilence, as Jehovah
hath spoken concerning
the nation that doth
not serve the king of Babylon?
Therefore
hearken
not unto the words of the prophets that
speak
unto you, saying, Ye shall
not serve the king of Babylon :
for they prophesy
a
lie
unto
you.
`And
ye
do
not hearken
unto the words of the prophets who
are
speaking
unto you, saying, Ye do
not serve the king of Babylon ,
--
for falsehood
they are
prophesying
to
you.
For I have not sent them ,
saith
the
LORD,
yet
they prophesy
a
lie
in my name ;
that
I
might
drive you out, and that
ye might
perish
, ye, and the prophets that
prophesy
unto
you.
For I have not sent them --
an
affirmation
of
Jehovah
--
and
they are
prophesying
in My name falsely,
so
as
to
drive you out, and ye have
perished
, ye, and the prophets who
are
prophesying
to
you. '
Also
I
spake
to
the priests and to
all this people, saying, Thus saith
the
LORD;
Hearken
not to
the words of your prophets that
prophesy
unto
you, saying, Behold
, the vessels of the LORD's
house shall
now
shortly
be
brought again
from Babylon :
for they prophesy
a
lie
unto
you.
And
unto
the priests ,
and unto
all this people, I
have
spoken,
saying, `
Thus said
Jehovah,
Ye
do
not hearken
unto
the words of your prophets ,
who
are
prophesying
to
you, saying, Lo
, the vessels of the house of
Jehovah
are
brought back
from Babylon now
in
haste,
for falsehood
they are
prophesying
to
you.
Hearken
not unto them ;
serve the king of Babylon, and live :
wherefore
should
this city be
laid
waste?
Ye
do
not hearken
unto them ,
serve the king of Babylon, and live .
Why
is
this city a
waste?
But
if they be prophets, and if the
word of the
LORD
be with them, let them now
make
intercession
to
the
LORD
of hosts, that the vessels which
are left in the house of the
LORD
, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at
Jerusalem, go
not to
Babylon.
`And,
if they be prophets, and if a
word of Jehovah
be with them, let them intercede,
I
pray
you,
with
Jehovah
of Hosts, so
that the vessels that
are left in the house of Jehovah
, and `
in '
the house of the king of Judah, and in
Jerusalem, have
not gone
into
Babylon.
For thus saith
the
LORD
of hosts concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the residue
of the vessels that remain
in this city .
For thus said
Jehovah
of Hosts concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the rest
of the vessels that are
left
in this city ,
Which
Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took
not, when
he
carried
away
captive
Jeconiah the
son of Jehoiakim king of Judah from Jerusalem to Babylon ,
and
all the nobles
of Judah and Jerusalem ;
That
Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon hath
not taken
, in
his
removing
Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah from Jerusalem to Babylon with
all the freemen
of Judah and Jerusalem ,
Yea,
thus saith
the
LORD
of hosts, the
God of Israel, concerning the vessels that remain
in
the house of the
LORD
, and in
the house of the king of Judah and of
Jerusalem ;
Surely
thus said
Jehovah
of Hosts, God of Israel, concerning the vessels that are
left
of
the house of Jehovah
, and of
the house of the king of Judah ,
and `in'
Jerusalem :
They
shall
be
carried
to Babylon, and there shall
they be
until
the day that
I
visit
them ,
saith
the
LORD
; then will
I bring
them up, and restore
them to
this place.
To Babylon they
are
brought
, and there they are
till
the day of
My
inspecting
them --
an
affirmation
of
Jehovah
; then I have
brought
them up, and have
brought
them back
unto
this place. '
