King James Version
When Jeremiah had finished
telling
all the people all the words of the LORD their God —everything
that
the LORD had sent him to say—
And
it
came
to
pass,
that
when Jeremiah had made
an
end
of
speaking
unto
all the people all the words of the LORD their God ,
for
which
the LORD their
God
had sent him to them,
even
all
these
words,
Azariah son of Hoshaiah, Johanan son of Kareah, and all the arrogant
men said
to
Jeremiah, “You
are
lying!
The LORD our God has
not sent you
to say, ‘You
must
not
go to
Egypt to reside
there .’
Then
spake
Azariah the
son of Hoshaiah, and
Johanan the
son of Kareah, and all the proud
men ,
saying
unto
Jeremiah, Thou
speakest
falsely:
the LORD our God hath
not sent thee
to say, Go not
into
Egypt to sojourn
there :
Rather,
Baruch son of Neriah is
inciting
you
against us to deliver us into the hands
of the Chaldeans, so
that they may
put us to death or
exile
us to
Babylon !”
But
Baruch the
son of Neriah setteth
thee
on
against us ,
for
to deliver us into the hand
of the Chaldeans, that they might
put us to death ,
and
carry
us away
captives
into
Babylon .
So Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders
of the forces disobeyed
the command
of the LORD to stay
in the land of Judah.
So Johanan the
son of Kareah ,
and all the captains
of the forces ,
and
all
the people,
obeyed
not
the
voice
of the LORD ,
to dwell
in the land of Judah.
Instead,
Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders
of the forces took the whole
remnant of Judah, those
who
had
returned to
the
land
of
Judah
from all the
nations to
which
they had been scattered
,
But
Johanan the
son of Kareah ,
and all the captains
of the forces ,
took all
the remnant of Judah, that
were
returned from all nations ,
whither
they had been driven
, to
dwell
in
the
land
of
Judah;
the
men, the
women, the
children, the king’s
daughters, and everyone
whom
Nebuzaradan captain of the guard had allowed
to
remain
with Gedaliah son of Ahikam ,
the son of Shaphan, as
well
as
Jeremiah the prophet and Baruch son of Neriah.
Even
men, and
women, and
children, and
the king's
daughters, and every
person
that
Nebuzaradan the
captain of the guard had left
with Gedaliah the
son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and
Jeremiah the prophet ,
and Baruch the
son of Neriah.
So they entered
the land of Egypt because
they did
not obey
the voice of the LORD ,
and
they went
as
far
as
Tahpanhes.
So they came
into
the land of Egypt :
for
they obeyed
not the voice of the LORD :
thus
came
they even
to
Tahpanhes.
Then the word of the LORD came
to
Jeremiah at
Tahpanhes :
Then came
the word of the LORD unto
Jeremiah in
Tahpanhes ,
saying,
“
In the
sight
of
the
Jews
, pick
up
some
large
stones
and bury
them in the clay of
the brick
pavement
at the entrance
to
Pharaoh’s
palace
at
Tahpanhes .
Take
great
stones
in thine
hand
, and hide
them in the clay in
the brickkiln,
which
is
at the entry
of
Pharaoh's
house
in
Tahpanhes ,
in
the
sight
of
the
men
of
Judah;
Then
tell
them that
this
is
what
the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says:
‘
I will send for
My
servant
Nebuchadnezzar
king of Babylon, and I
will set his throne over
these stones that I have embedded,
and he will
spread his royal pavilion over them.
And
say
unto
them ,
Thus
saith
the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel ;
Behold
, I will send and
take
Nebuchadrezzar
the
king of Babylon, my
servant,
and will set his throne upon
these stones that I have hid;
and he shall
spread his royal pavilion over them.
He
will
come
and strike
down
the land of Egypt, bringing
death to those
destined
for
death ,
captivity to those
destined
for
captivity ,
and the sword to those
destined
for
the sword.
And when
he
cometh,
he
shall
smite
the land of Egypt, and
deliver
such
as
are
for
death to death ;
and
such
as
are
for
captivity to captivity ;
and such
as
are
for
the sword to the sword.
I will kindle a fire in the temples
of the gods of Egypt ,
and Nebuchadnezzar
will
burn those
temples
and take
their
gods
as
captives .
So
he will
wrap
himself with the land of Egypt as a shepherd wraps
himself
in
his garment ,
and he will
depart
from there
unscathed
.
And
I will kindle a fire in the houses
of the gods of Egypt ;
and he
shall
burn them,
and carry
them
away
captives :
and
he shall
array
himself with the land of Egypt ,
as a shepherd putteth
on
his garment ;
and he shall
go
forth
from thence
in
peace
.
He will
demolish
the
sacred
pillars
of
the temple
of the
sun
in the land of Egypt ,
and he
will
burn
down
the temples
of the gods of Egypt
. ’”
He shall
break
also
the images
of Bethshemesh,
that
is
in the land of Egypt ;
and the houses
of the gods of the
Egyptians
shall
he
burn
with
fire
.
