ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ Moreover the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah the second time, while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Thus saith the LORD the maker thereof, the LORD that formed it, to establish it; the LORD is his name;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ For thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, which are thrown down by the mounts, and by the sword;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² And the captain of the guard took Jeremiah, and said unto him, The LORD thy God hath pronounced this evil upon this place.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ And Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan sware unto them and to their men, saying, Fear not to serve the Chaldeans: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went forth from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went: and it came to pass, as he met them, he said unto them, Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ But ten men were found among them that said unto Ishmael, Slay us not: for we have treasures in the field, of wheat, and of barley, and of oil, and of honey. So he forbare, and slew them not among their brethren.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² And said unto Jeremiah the prophet, Let, we beseech thee, our supplication be accepted before thee, and pray for us unto the LORD thy God, even for all this remnant; for we are left but a few of many, as thine eyes do behold us:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ Then Jeremiah the prophet said unto them, I have heard you; behold, I will pray unto the LORD your God according to your words; and it shall come to pass, that whatsoever thing the LORD shall answer you, I will declare it unto you; I will keep nothing back from you.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ Then they said to Jeremiah, The LORD be a true and faithful witness between us, if we do not even according to all things for the which the LORD thy God shall send thee to us.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ And said unto them, Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, unto whom ye sent me to present your supplication before him;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² 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:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ Thus saith the LORD; Again there shall be heard in this place, which ye say shall be desolate without man and without beast, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man, and without inhabitant, and without beast,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that shall say, Praise the LORD of hosts: for the LORD is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: and of them that shall bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the LORD. For I will cause to return the captivity of the land, as at the first, saith the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Again in this place, which is desolate without man and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, shall be an habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ In the cities of the mountains, in the cities of the vale, and in the cities of the south, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks pass again under the hands of him that telleth them, saith the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ For thus saith the LORD; David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ And the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ Moreover the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which the LORD hath chosen, he hath even cast them off? thus they have despised my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁵ Thus saith the LORD; If my covenant be not with day and night, and if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ Now Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon gave charge concerning Jeremiah to Nebuzar-adan the captain of the guard, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Now the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, while he was shut up in the court of the prison, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ Go and speak to Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring my words upon this city for evil, and not for good; and they shall be accomplished in that day before thee.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ And said unto him, Dost thou certainly know that Baalis the king of the Ammonites hath sent Ishmael the son of Nethaniah to slay slay thee? But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam believed them not.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Then Johanan the son of Kareah spake to Gedaliah in Mizpah secretly, saying, Let me go, I pray thee, and I will slay Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and no man shall know it: wherefore should he slay slay thee, that all the Jews which are gathered unto thee should be scattered, and the remnant in Judah perish?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam said unto Johanan the son of Kareah, Thou shalt not do this thing: for thou speakest falsely of Ishmael.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ But if ye say, We will not dwell in this land, neither obey the voice of the LORD your God,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ And now therefore hear the word of the LORD, ye remnant of Judah; Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; If ye wholly set your faces to enter into Egypt, and go to sojourn there;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; As mine anger and my fury hath been poured forth upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem; so shall my fury be poured forth upon you, when ye shall enter into Egypt: and ye shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach; and ye shall see this place no more.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ For ye dissembled in your hearts, when ye sent me unto the LORD your God, saying, Pray for us unto the LORD our God; and according unto all that the LORD our God shall say, so declare unto us, and we will do it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ 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.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ And I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁷ Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵⁷ Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee: thou saidst, Fear not.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ The breath of our nostrils, the anointed of the LORD, was taken in their pits, of whom we said, Under his shadow we shall live among the heathen.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ And it came to pass in the eleventh eleventh year, in the first day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Son of man, because that Tyrus hath said against Jerusalem, Aha, she is broken that was the gates of the people: she is turned unto me: I shall be replenished, now she is laid waste:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Tyrus, and will cause many nations to come up against thee, as the sea causeth his waves to come up.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring upon Tyrus Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, a king of kings, from the north, with horses, and with chariots, and with horsemen, and companies, and much people.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ And say unto Tyrus, O thou that art situate at the entry of the sea, which art a merchant of the people for many isles, Thus saith the Lord GOD; O Tyrus, thou hast said, I am of perfect beauty.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee, I am God? but thou shalt be a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slayeth thee.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ And it came to pass in the eleventh eleventh year, in the third month, in the first day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Son of man, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to his multitude; Whom art thou like in thy greatness?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Thus saith the Lord GOD to Tyrus; Shall not the isles shake at the sound of thy fall, when the wounded cry, when the slaughter is made in the midst of thee?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ For thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall make thee a desolate city, like the cities that are not inhabited; when I shall bring up the deep upon thee, and great waters shall cover thee;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of thee: and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁵ Thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given to my servant Jacob.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And it came to pass in the eleventh eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong, and that which was broken; and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast lifted up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when he went down to the grave I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him.
