² Stand in the gate of the LORD'S house, and proclaim there this word, and say, Hear the word of the LORD, all ye of Judah, that enter in at these gates to worship the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ And say thou unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel; Cursed be the man that obeyeth not the words of this covenant,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ Then the LORD said unto me, Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, Hear ye the words of this covenant, and do them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ And say, Hear ye the word of the LORD, O kings of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem; Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, the which whosoever heareth, his ears shall tingle.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ Now Pashur the son of Immer the priest, who was also chief governor in the house of the LORD, heard that Jeremiah prophesied these things.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² And say, Hear the word of the LORD, O king of Judah, that sittest upon the throne of David, thou, and thy servants, and thy people that enter in by these gates:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ But if ye will not hear these words, I swear by myself, saith the LORD, that this house shall become a desolation.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ From the thirteenth 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 spoken unto you, rising early and speaking; but ye have not hearkened.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ 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.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ 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.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Because ye have not heard my words,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ And thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the LORD; If ye will not hearken to me, to walk in my law, which I have set before you,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ So the priests and the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Let not your prophets and your diviners, that be in the midst of you, deceive you, neither hearken to your dreams which ye cause to be dreamed.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ Only acknowledge thine iniquity, that thou hast transgressed against the LORD thy God, and hast scattered thy ways to the strangers under every green tree, and ye have not obeyed my voice, saith the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ A voice was heard upon the high places, weeping and supplications of the children of Israel: for they have perverted their way, and they have forgotten the LORD their God.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁵ We lie down in our shame, and our confusion covereth us: for we have sinned against the LORD our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even unto this day, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ For thus saith the LORD; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ For thus saith the LORD; Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout among the chief of the nations: publish ye, praise ye, and say, O LORD, save thy people, the remnant of Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ Yet hear the word of the LORD, O Zedekiah king of Judah; Thus saith the LORD of thee, Thou shalt not die by the sword:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² But neither he, nor his servants, nor the people of the land, did hearken unto the words of the LORD, which he spake by the prophet Jeremiah.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ Now the LORD hath brought it, and done according as he hath said: because ye have sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed his voice, therefore this thing is come upon you.

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

⁶ Whether it be good, or whether it be evil, we will obey the voice of the LORD our God, to whom we send thee; that it may be well with us, when we obey the voice of the LORD our God.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ 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.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ So they came into the land of Egypt: for they obeyed not the voice of the LORD: thus came they even to Tahpanhes.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard in Rabbah of the Ammonites; Ammonites; and it shall be a desolate heap, and her daughters shall be burned with fire: then shall Israel be heir unto them that were his heirs, saith the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Lo, I will bring a nation upon you from far, O house of Israel, saith the LORD: it is a mighty nation, it is an ancient nation, a nation whose language thou knowest not, neither understandest what they say.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: behold, the word of the LORD is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ And now, because ye have done all these works, saith the LORD, and I spake unto you, rising up early and speaking, but ye heard not; and I called you, but ye answered not;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁸ But thou shalt say unto them, This is a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the LORD their God, nor receiveth correction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ And the LORD saith, Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed my voice, neither walked therein;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ Yet hear the word of the LORD, O ye women, and let your ear receive the word of his mouth, and teach your daughters wailing, and every one her neighbour lamentation.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ Therefore thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil upon them, which they shall not be able to escape; and though they shall cry unto me, I will not hearken unto them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ But if they will not obey, I will utterly pluck up and destroy that nation, saith the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ For as the girdle cleaveth to the loins of a man, so have I caused to cleave unto me the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah, saith the LORD; that they might be unto me for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory: but they would not hear.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Hear ye, and give ear; be not proud: for the LORD hath spoken.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ But if ye will not hear it, my soul shall weep in secret places for your pride; and mine eye shall weep sore, and run down with tears, because the LORD'S flock is carried away captive.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And say unto them, Hear ye the word of the LORD, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ And it shall come to pass, if ye diligently hearken unto me, saith the LORD, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but hallow the sabbath day, to do no work therein;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ Therefore thus saith the LORD; Ask ye now among the heathen, who hath heard such things: the virgin of Israel hath done a very horrible thing.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ Give heed to me, O LORD, and hearken to the voice of them that contend with me.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring upon this city and upon all her towns all the evil that I have pronounced against it, because they have hardened their necks, that they might not hear my words.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ And let that man be as the cities which the LORD overthrew, and repented not: and let him hear the cry in the morning, and the shouting at noontide; noontide;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ And touching the house of the king of Judah, say, Hear ye the word of the LORD;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁹ O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ For who hath stood in the counsel of the LORD, and hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ When the princes of Judah heard these things, then they came up from the king's house unto the house of the LORD, and sat down in the entry of the new gate of the LORD'S house.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² Then spake Jeremiah unto all the princes and to all the people, saying, The LORD sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city all the words that ye have heard.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ Therefore now amend your ways and your doings, and obey the voice of the LORD your God; and the LORD will repent him of the evil that he hath pronounced against you.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ 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.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Then said the prophet Jeremiah unto Hananiah the prophet, Hear now, Hananiah; The LORD hath not sent thee; but thou makest this people to trust in a lie.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ Because they have not hearkened to my words, saith the LORD, which I sent unto them by my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them; but ye would not hear, saith the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ Hear ye therefore the word of the LORD, all ye of the captivity, whom I have sent from Jerusalem to Babylon:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Thus saith the LORD; A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping; Rahel weeping for her children refused to be comforted for her children, because they were not.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus; Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bullock unaccustomed unaccustomed to the yoke: turn thou me, and I shall be turned; for thou art the LORD my God.

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

¹⁷ Therefore thus saith the LORD; Ye have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every one to his brother, and every man to his neighbour: behold, I proclaim a liberty for you, saith the LORD, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be removed removed into all the kingdoms of the earth.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Go and tell the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, Will ye not receive instruction to hearken to my words? saith the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ Therefore thus saith the LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring upon Judah and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced against them: because I have spoken unto them, but they have not heard; and I have called unto them, but they have not answered.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ And Jeremiah said unto the house of the Rechabites, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Because ye have obeyed the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done according unto all that he hath commanded you:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ When Michaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the book all the words of the LORD,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ But Jeremiah said, They shall not deliver thee. Obey, I beseech thee, the voice of the LORD, which I speak unto thee: so it shall be well unto thee, and thy soul shall live.

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

²¹ And now I have this day declared it to you; but ye have not obeyed the voice of the LORD your God, nor any thing for the which he hath sent me unto you.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ As for the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the LORD, we will not hearken unto thee.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ Because ye have burned incense, and because ye have sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil is happened unto you, as at this day.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ Moreover Jeremiah said unto all the people, and to all the women, Hear the word of the LORD, all Judah that are in the land of Egypt:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁶ Therefore hear ye the word of the LORD, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt; Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith the LORD, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, The Lord GOD liveth.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ I have heard a rumour from the LORD, and an ambassador is sent unto the heathen, saying, Gather ye together, and come against her, and rise up to the battle.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ Therefore hear the counsel of the LORD, that he hath taken against Edom; and his purposes, that he hath purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out: surely he shall make their habitations desolate with them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁹ Call together the archers against Babylon: all ye that bend the bow, camp against it round about; let none thereof escape: recompense her according to her work; according to all that she hath done, do unto her: for she hath been proud against the LORD, against the Holy One of Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁵ Therefore hear ye the counsel of the LORD, that he hath taken against Babylon; and his purposes, that he hath purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out: surely he shall make their habitation desolate with them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵¹ We are confounded, because we have heard reproach: shame hath covered our faces: for strangers are come into the sanctuaries of the LORD'S house.
