1 # Then all the captains <08269> of the forces <02428>, and Johanan <03110> the son <01121> of Kareah <07143>, and Jezaniah <03153> the son <01121> of Hoshaiah <01955>, and all the people <05971> from the least <06996> even unto the greatest <01419> , came near <05066> (8799),
2 And said <0559> (8799) unto Jeremiah <03414> the prophet <05030>, Let, we beseech thee, our supplication <08467> be accepted <05307> (8799) before <06440> thee, and pray <06419> (8690) for us unto the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> , even for all this remnant <07611>; (for we are left <07604> (8738) but a few <04592> of many <07235> (8687) , as thine eyes <05869> do behold <07200> (8802) us:)
3 That the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> may shew <05046> (8686) us the way <01870> wherein we may walk <03212> (8799), and the thing <01697> that we may do <06213> (8799).
4 Then Jeremiah <03414> the prophet <05030> said <0559> (8799) unto them, I have heard <08085> (8804) you; behold, I will pray <06419> (8693) unto the LORD <03068> your God <0430> according to your words <01697>; and it shall come to pass, that whatsoever thing <01697> the LORD <03068> shall answer <06030> (8799) you, I will declare <05046> (8686) it unto you; I will keep <04513> <00> nothing <01697> back <04513> (8799) from you.
5 Then they said <0559> (8804) to Jeremiah <03414>, The LORD <03068> be a true <0571> and faithful <0539> (8737) witness <05707> between us, if we do <06213> (8799) not even according to all things <01697> for the which the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> shall send <07971> (8799) thee to us.
6 Whether it be good <02896>, or whether it be evil <07451>, we will obey <08085> (8799) the voice <06963> of the LORD <03068> our God <0430>, to whom we <0580> send <07971> (8802) thee; that it may be well <03190> (8799) with us, when we obey <08085> (8799) the voice <06963> of the LORD <03068> our God <0430>.
7 # And it came to pass after <07093> ten <06235> days <03117>, that the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came unto Jeremiah <03414>.
8 Then called <07121> (8799) he Johanan <03110> the son <01121> of Kareah <07143>, and all the captains <08269> of the forces <02428> which were with him, and all the people <05971> from the least <06996> even to the greatest <01419>,
9 And said <0559> (8799) unto them, Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>, the God <0430> of Israel <03478>, unto whom ye sent <07971> (8804) me to present <05307> (8687) your supplication <08467> before <06440> him;
10 If ye will still <07725> (8800) abide <03427> (8799) in this land <0776>, then will I build <01129> (8804) you, and not pull you down <02040> (8799), and I will plant <05193> (8804) you, and not pluck you up <05428> (8799): for I repent <05162> (8738) me of the evil <07451> that I have done <06213> (8804) unto you.
11 Be not afraid <03372> (8799) of <06440> the king <04428> of Babylon <0894>, of whom <06440> ye are afraid <03373>; be not afraid <03372> (8799) of him, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>: for I am with you to save <03467> (8687) you, and to deliver <05337> (8687) you from his hand <03027>.
12 And I will shew <05414> (8799) mercies <07356> unto you, that he may have mercy <07355> (8765) upon you, and cause you to return <07725> (8689) to your own land <0127>.
13 But if ye say <0559> (8802), We will not dwell <03427> (8799) in this land <0776>, neither obey <08085> (8800) the voice <06963> of the LORD <03068> your God <0430>,
14 Saying <0559> (8800), No; but we will go <0935> (8799) into the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>, where we shall see <07200> (8799) no war <04421>, nor hear <08085> (8799) the sound <06963> of the trumpet <07782>, nor have hunger <07456> (8799) of bread <03899>; and there will we dwell <03427> (8799):
15 And now therefore hear <08085> (8798) the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, ye remnant <07611> of Judah <03063>; Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, the God <0430> of Israel <03478>; If ye wholly <07760> (8800) set <07760> (8799) your faces <06440> to enter <0935> (8800) into Egypt <04714>, and go <0935> (8804) to sojourn <01481> (8800) there;
16 Then it shall come to pass, that the sword <02719>, which ye feared <03373>, shall overtake <05381> (8686) you there in the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>, and the famine <07458>, whereof ye were afraid <01672> (8802), shall follow close <01692> (8799) after <0310> you there in Egypt <04714>; and there ye shall die <04191> (8799).
17 So shall it be with all the men <0582> that set <07760> (8804) their faces <06440> to go <0935> (8800) into Egypt <04714> to sojourn <01481> (8800) there; they shall die <04191> (8799) by the sword <02719>, by the famine <07458>, and by the pestilence <01698>: and none of them shall remain <08300> or escape <06412> from <06440> the evil <07451> that I will bring <0935> (8688) upon them.
18 For thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>, the God <0430> of Israel <03478> ; As mine anger <0639> and my fury <02534> hath been poured forth <05413> (8738) upon the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of Jerusalem <03389>; so shall my fury <02534> be poured forth <05413> (8799) upon you, when ye shall enter <0935> (8800) into Egypt <04714>: and ye shall be an execration <0423>, and an astonishment <08047>, and a curse <07045>, and a reproach <02781>; and ye shall see <07200> (8799) this place <04725> no more.
19 The LORD <03068> hath said <01696> (8765) concerning you, O ye remnant <07611> of Judah <03063>; Go <0935> (8799) ye not into Egypt <04714>: know <03045> (8799) certainly <03045> (8800) that I have admonished <05749> (8689) you this day <03117>.
20 For ye dissembled <08582> (8689) in your hearts <05315>, when ye sent <07971> (8804) me unto the LORD <03068> your God <0430>, saying <0559> (8800), Pray <06419> (8690) for us unto the LORD <03068> our God <0430> ; and according unto all that the LORD <03068> our God <0430> shall say <0559> (8799), so declare <05046> (8685) unto us, and we will do <06213> (8804) it.
21 And now I have this day <03117> declared <05046> (8686) it to you; but ye have not obeyed <08085> (8804) the voice <06963> of the LORD <03068> your God <0430>, nor any thing for the which he hath sent <07971> (8804) me unto you.
22 Now therefore know <03045> (8799) certainly <03045> (8800) that ye shall die <04191> (8799) by the sword <02719>, by the famine <07458>, and by the pestilence <01698>, in the place <04725> whither ye desire <02654> (8804) to go <0935> (8800) and to sojourn <01481> (8800).
