1 # The word <01697> that came to Jeremiah <03414> concerning all the Jews <03064> which dwell <03427> (8802) in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>, which dwell <03427> (8802) at Migdol <04024>, and at Tahpanhes <08471>, and at Noph <05297> , and in the country <0776> of Pathros <06624>, saying <0559> (8800),
2 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, the God <0430> of Israel <03478>; Ye have seen <07200> (8804) all the evil <07451> that I have brought <0935> (8689) upon Jerusalem <03389>, and upon all the cities <05892> of Judah <03063>; and, behold, this day <03117> they are a desolation <02723>, and no man dwelleth <03427> (8802) therein,
3 Because <06440> of their wickedness <07451> which they have committed <06213> (8804) to provoke me to anger <03707> (8687), in that they went <03212> (8800) to burn incense <06999> (8763), and to serve <05647> (8800) other <0312> gods <0430>, whom they knew <03045> (8804) not, neither they, ye, nor your fathers <01>.
4 Howbeit I sent <07971> (8799) unto you all my servants <05650> the prophets <05030>, rising early <07925> (8687) and sending <07971> (8800) them, saying <0559> (8800), Oh, do <06213> (8799) not this abominable <08441> thing <01697> that I hate <08130> (8804).
5 But they hearkened <08085> (8804) not, nor inclined <05186> (8689) their ear <0241> to turn <07725> (8800) from their wickedness <07451>, to burn no incense <06999> (8763) unto other <0312> gods <0430>.
6 Wherefore my fury <02534> and mine anger <0639> was poured forth <05413> (8799), and was kindled <01197> (8799) in the cities <05892> of Judah <03063> and in the streets <02351> of Jerusalem <03389>; and they are wasted <02723> and desolate <08077>, as at this day <03117>.
7 Therefore now thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>, the God <0430> of hosts <06635>, the God <0430> of Israel <03478>; Wherefore commit <06213> (8802) ye this great <01419> evil <07451> against your souls <05315> , to cut off <03772> (8687) from you man <0376> and woman <0802>, child <05768> and suckling <03243> (8802), out <08432> of Judah <03063>, to leave <03498> (8687) you none to remain <07611>;
8 In that ye provoke me unto wrath <03707> (8687) with the works <04639> of your hands <03027>, burning incense <06999> (8763) unto other <0312> gods <0430> in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>, whither ye be gone <0935> (8802) to dwell <01481> (8800), that ye might cut yourselves off <03772> (8687), and that ye might be a curse <07045> and a reproach <02781> among all the nations <01471> of the earth <0776>?
9 Have ye forgotten <07911> (8804) the wickedness <07451> of your fathers <01>, and the wickedness <07451> of the kings <04428> of Judah <03063>, and the wickedness <07451> of their wives <0802>, and your own wickedness <07451>, and the wickedness <07451> of your wives <0802>, which they have committed <06213> (8804) in the land <0776> of Judah <03063>, and in the streets <02351> of Jerusalem <03389>?
10 They are not humbled <01792> (8795) even unto this day <03117>, neither have they feared <03372> (8804) , nor walked <01980> (8804) in my law <08451>, nor in my statutes <02708>, that I set <05414> (8804) before <06440> you and before <06440> your fathers <01>.
11 Therefore thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, the God <0430> of Israel <03478> ; Behold, I will set <07760> (8802) my face <06440> against you for evil <07451>, and to cut off <03772> (8687) all Judah <03063>.
12 And I will take <03947> (8804) the remnant <07611> of Judah <03063>, that have set <07760> (8804) their faces <06440> to go <0935> (8800) into the land <0776> of Egypt <04714> to sojourn <01481> (8800) there, and they shall all be consumed <08552> (8804), and fall <05307> (8799) in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>; they shall even be consumed <08552> (8735) by the sword <02719> and by the famine <07458>: they shall die <04191> (8799), from the least <06996> even unto the greatest <01419>, by the sword <02719> and by the famine <07458>: and they shall be an execration <0423> , and an astonishment <08047>, and a curse <07045>, and a reproach <02781>.
13 For I will punish <06485> (8804) them that dwell <03427> (8802) in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714> , as I have punished <06485> (8804) Jerusalem <03389>, by the sword <02719>, by the famine <07458>, and by the pestilence <01698> :
14 So that none of the remnant <07611> of Judah <03063>, which are gone <0935> (8802) into the land <0776> of Egypt <04714> to sojourn <01481> (8800) there, shall escape <06412> or remain <08300>, that they should return <07725> (8800) into the land <0776> of Judah <03063>, to the which they have <05375> (8764) a desire <05315> to return <07725> (8800) to dwell <03427> (8800) there: for none shall return <07725> (8799) but such as shall escape <06405>.
15 # Then all the men <0582> which knew <03045> (8802) that their wives <0802> had burned incense <06999> (8764) unto other <0312> gods <0430>, and all the women <0802> that stood by <05975> (8802), a great <01419> multitude <06951>, even all the people <05971> that dwelt <03427> (8802) in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>, in Pathros <06624> , answered <06030> (8799) Jeremiah <03414>, saying <0559> (8800),
16 As for the word <01697> that thou hast spoken <01696> (8765) unto us in the name <08034> of the LORD <03068> , we will not hearken <08085> (8802) unto thee.
17 But we will certainly <06213> (8800) do <06213> (8799) whatsoever thing <01697> goeth forth <03318> (8804) out of our own mouth <06310>, to burn incense <06999> (8763) unto the queen <04446> of heaven <08064>, and to pour out <05258> (8687) drink offerings <05262> unto her, as we have done <06213> (8804), we, and our fathers <01>, our kings <04428>, and our princes <08269>, in the cities <05892> of Judah <03063>, and in the streets <02351> of Jerusalem <03389>: for then had we plenty <07646> (8799) of victuals <03899>, and were well <02896>, and saw <07200> (8804) no evil <07451> .
18 But since we left off <02308> (8804) to burn incense <06999> (8763) to the queen <04446> of heaven <08064> , and to pour out <05258> (8687) drink offerings <05262> unto her, we have wanted <02637> (8804) all things, and have been consumed <08552> (8804) by the sword <02719> and by the famine <07458>.
19 And when we burned incense <06999> (8764) to the queen <04446> of heaven <08064>, and poured out <05258> (8687) drink offerings <05262> unto her, did we make <06213> (8804) her cakes <03561> to worship <06087> (8687) her, and pour out <05258> (8687) drink offerings <05262> unto her, without <01107> our men <0582>?
20 # Then Jeremiah <03414> said <0559> (8799) unto all the people <05971>, to the men <01397>, and to the women <0802>, and to all the people <05971> which had given him that answer <01697> <06030> (8802), saying <0559> (8800) ,
21 The incense <07002> that ye burned <06999> (8765) in the cities <05892> of Judah <03063>, and in the streets <02351> of Jerusalem <03389>, ye, and your fathers <01>, your kings <04428>, and your princes <08269>, and the people <05971> of the land <0776>, did not the LORD <03068> remember <02142> (8804) them, and came <05927> (8799) it not into his mind <03820>?
22 So that the LORD <03068> could <03201> (8799) no longer bear <05375> (8800), because <06440> of the evil <07455> of your doings <04611>, and because <06440> of the abominations <08441> which ye have committed <06213> (8804) ; therefore is your land <0776> a desolation <02723>, and an astonishment <08047>, and a curse <07045>, without an inhabitant <03427> (8802), as at this day <03117>.
23 Because <06440> <0834> ye have burned incense <06999> (8765), and because ye have sinned <02398> (8804) against the LORD <03068>, and have not obeyed <08085> (8804) the voice <06963> of the LORD <03068>, nor walked <01980> (8804) in his law <08451>, nor in his statutes <02708>, nor in his testimonies <05715>; therefore this evil <07451> is happened <07122> (8804) unto you, as at this day <03117>.
24 Moreover Jeremiah <03414> said <0559> (8799) unto all the people <05971>, and to all the women <0802>, Hear <08085> (8798) the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, all Judah <03063> that are in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714> :
25 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, the God <0430> of Israel <03478>, saying <0559> (8800); Ye and your wives <0802> have both spoken <01696> (8762) with your mouths <06310>, and fulfilled <04390> (8765) with your hand <03027>, saying <0559> (8800), We will surely <06213> (8800) perform <06213> (8799) our vows <05088> that we have vowed <05087> (8804), to burn incense <06999> (8763) to the queen <04446> of heaven <08064>, and to pour out <05258> (8687) drink offerings <05262> unto her: ye will surely <06965> (8687) accomplish <06965> (8686) your vows <05088>, and surely <06213> (8800) perform <06213> (8799) your vows <05088>.
26 Therefore hear <08085> (8798) ye the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, all Judah <03063> that dwell <03427> (8802) in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>; Behold, I have sworn <07650> (8738) by my great <01419> name <08034> , saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>, that my name <08034> shall no more be named <07121> (8737) in the mouth <06310> of any man <0376> of Judah <03063> in all the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>, saying <0559> (8802), The Lord <0136> GOD <03069> liveth <02416>.
27 Behold, I will watch <08245> (8802) over them for evil <07451>, and not for good <02896>: and all the men <0376> of Judah <03063> that are in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714> shall be consumed <08552> (8804) by the sword <02719> and by the famine <07458>, until there be an end <03615> (8800) of them.
28 Yet a small <04962> number <04557> that escape <06412> the sword <02719> shall return out <07725> (8799) of the land <0776> of Egypt <04714> into the land <0776> of Judah <03063>, and all the remnant <07611> of Judah <03063> , that are gone <0935> (8802) into the land <0776> of Egypt <04714> to sojourn <01481> (8800) there, shall know <03045> (8804) whose words <01697> shall stand <06965> (8799), mine, or theirs.
29 And this shall be a sign <0226> unto you, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>, that I will punish <06485> (8802) you in this place <04725>, that ye may know <03045> (8799) that my words <01697> shall surely <06965> (8800) stand <06965> (8799) against you for evil <07451>:
30 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>; Behold, I will give <05414> (8802) Pharaohhophra <06548> king <04428> of Egypt <04714> into the hand <03027> of his enemies <0341> (8802), and into the hand <03027> of them that seek <01245> (8764) his life <05315>; as I gave <05414> (8804) Zedekiah <06667> king <04428> of Judah <03063> into the hand <03027> of Nebuchadrezzar <05019> king <04428> of Babylon <0894>, his enemy <0341> (8802), and that sought <01245> (8764) his life <05315>.
