Jeremiah 14

The word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
that came to Jeremiah
<03414>
concerning
<01697>
the dearth
<01226>_.
{the dearth: Heb. the words of the dearths, or, restraints}
Judah
<03063>
mourneth
<056> (8804)_,
and the gates
<08179>
thereof languish
<0535> (8797)_;
they are black
<06937> (8804)
unto the ground
<0776>_;
and the cry
<06682>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
is gone up
<05927> (8804)_.
And their nobles
<0117>
have sent
<07971> (8804)
their little ones
<06810>
to the waters
<04325>_:
they came
<0935> (8804)
to the pits
<01356> (8676) <01360>_,
[and] found
<04672> (8804)
no water
<04325>_;
they returned
<07725> (8804)
with their vessels
<03627>
empty
<07387>_;
they were ashamed
<0954> (8804)
and confounded
<03637> (8717)_,
and covered
<02645> (8804)
their heads
<07218>_.
Because the ground
<0127>
is chapt
<02865> (8804)_,
for there was no rain
<01653>
in the earth
<0776>_,
the plowmen
<0406>
were ashamed
<0954> (8804)_,
they covered
<02645> (8804)
their heads
<07218>_.
Yea, the hind
<0365>
also calved
<03205> (8804)
in the field
<07704>_,
and forsook
<05800> (8800)
[it], because there was no grass
<01877>_.
And the wild asses
<06501>
did stand
<05975> (8804)
in the high places
<08205>_,
they snuffed up
<07602> (8804)
the wind
<07307>
like dragons
<08577>_;
their eyes
<05869>
did fail
<03615> (8804)_,
because [there was] no grass
<06212>_.
O LORD
<03068>_,
though our iniquities
<05771>
testify
<06030> (8804)
against us, do
<06213> (8798)
thou [it] for thy name's
<08034>
sake: for our backslidings
<04878>
are many
<07231> (8804)_;
we have sinned
<02398> (8804)
against thee.
O the hope
<04723>
of Israel
<03478>_,
the saviour
<03467> (8688)
thereof in time
<06256>
of trouble
<06869>_,
why shouldest thou be as a stranger
<01616>
in the land
<0776>_,
and as a wayfaring man
<0732> (8802)
[that] turneth aside
<05186> (8804)
to tarry for a night
<03885> (8800)_?
Why shouldest thou be as a man
<0376>
astonied
<01724> (8737)_,
as a mighty man
<01368>
[that] cannot
<03201> (8799)
save
<03467> (8687)_?
yet thou, O LORD
<03068>_,
[art] in the midst
<07130>
of us, and we are called
<07121> (8738)
by thy name
<08034>_;
leave
<03240> (8686)
us not. {we...: Heb. thy name is called upon us}
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
unto this people
<05971>_,
Thus have they loved
<0157> (8804)
to wander
<05128> (8800)_,
they have not refrained
<02820> (8804)
their feet
<07272>_,
therefore the LORD
<03068>
doth not accept
<07521> (8804)
them; he will now remember
<02142> (8799)
their iniquity
<05771>_,
and visit
<06485> (8799)
their sins
<02403>_.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
the LORD
<03068>
unto me, Pray
<06419> (8691)
not for this people
<05971>
for [their] good
<02896>_.
When they fast
<06684> (8799)_,
I will not hear
<08085> (8802)
their cry
<07440>_;
and when they offer
<05927> (8686)
burnt offering
<05930>
and an oblation
<04503>_,
I will not accept
<07521> (8802)
them: but I will consume
<03615> (8764)
them by the sword
<02719>_,
and by the famine
<07458>_,
and by the pestilence
<01698>_.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
I, Ah
<0162>_,
Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_!
behold, the prophets
<05030>
say
<0559> (8802)
unto them, Ye shall not see
<07200> (8799)
the sword
<02719>_,
neither shall ye have famine
<07458>_;
but I will give
<05414> (8799)
you assured
<0571>
peace
<07965>
in this place
<04725>_.
{assured...: Heb. peace of truth}
Then the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto me, The prophets
<05030>
prophesy
<05012> (8737)
lies
<08267>
in my name
<08034>_:
I sent
<07971> (8804)
them not, neither have I commanded
<06680> (8765)
them, neither spake
<01696> (8765)
unto them: they prophesy
<05012> (8693)
unto you a false
<08267>
vision
<02377>
and divination
<07081>_,
and a thing of nought
<0457> (8675) <0434>_,
and the deceit
<08649>
of their heart
<03820>_.
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
concerning the prophets
<05030>
that prophesy
<05012> (8737)
in my name
<08034>_,
and I sent
<07971> (8804)
them not, yet they say
<0559> (8802)_,
Sword
<02719>
and famine
<07458>
shall not be in this land
<0776>_;
By sword
<02719>
and famine
<07458>
shall those prophets
<05030>
be consumed
<08552> (8735)_.
And the people
<05971>
to whom they prophesy
<05012> (8737)
shall be cast out
<07993> (8716)
in the streets
<02351>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
because
<06440>
of the famine
<07458>
and the sword
<02719>_;
and they shall have none to bury
<06912> (8764)
them
<01992>_,
them, their wives
<0802>_,
nor their sons
<01121>_,
nor their daughters
<01323>_:
for I will pour
<08210> (8804)
their wickedness
<07451>
upon them.
Therefore thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)
this word
<01697>
unto them; Let mine eyes
<05869>
run down
<03381> (8799)
with tears
<01832>
night
<03915>
and day
<03119>_,
and let them not cease
<01820> (8799)_:
for the virgin
<01330>
daughter
<01323>
of my people
<05971>
is broken
<07665> (8738)
with a great
<01419>
breach
<07667>_,
with a very
<03966>
grievous
<02470> (8737)
blow
<04347>_.
If I go forth
<03318> (8804)
into the field
<07704>_,
then behold the slain
<02491>
with the sword
<02719>_!
and if I enter
<0935> (8804)
into the city
<05892>_,
then behold them that are sick
<08463>
with famine
<07458>_!
yea, both the prophet
<05030>
and the priest
<03548>
go about
<05503> (8804)
into a land
<0776>
that they know
<03045> (8804)
not. {go about...: or, make merchandise against a land, and men acknowledge it not}
Hast thou utterly
<03988> (8800)
rejected
<03988> (8804)
Judah
<03063>_?
hath thy soul
<05315>
lothed
<01602> (8804)
Zion
<06726>_?
why hast thou smitten
<05221> (8689)
us, and [there is] no healing
<04832>
for us? we looked
<06960> (8763)
for peace
<07965>_,
and [there is] no good
<02896>_;
and for the time
<06256>
of healing
<04832>_,
and behold trouble
<01205>_!
We acknowledge
<03045> (8804)_,
O LORD
<03068>_,
our wickedness
<07562>_,
[and] the iniquity
<05771>
of our fathers
<01>_:
for we have sinned
<02398> (8804)
against thee.
Do not abhor
<05006> (8799)
[us], for thy name's
<08034>
sake, do not disgrace
<05034> (8762)
the throne
<03678>
of thy glory
<03519>_:
remember
<02142> (8798)_,
break
<06565> (8686)
not thy covenant
<01285>
with us.
Are there
<03426>
[any] among the vanities
<01892>
of the Gentiles
<01471>
that can cause rain
<01652> (8688)_?
or can the heavens
<08064>
give
<05414> (8799)
showers
<07241>_?
[art] not thou he, O LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_?
therefore we will wait
<06960> (8762)
upon thee: for thou hast made
<06213> (8804)
all these [things].
