Jeremiah 7:1--8:3

The word
<01697>
that came to Jeremiah
<03414>
from the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Stand
<05975> (8798)
in the gate
<08179>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
house
<01004>_,
and proclaim
<07121> (8804)
there this word
<01697>_,
and say
<0559> (8804)_,
Hear
<08085> (8798)
the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
all [ye of] Judah
<03063>_,
that enter in
<0935> (8802)
at these gates
<08179>
to worship
<07812> (8692)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Amend
<03190> (8685)
your ways
<01870>
and your doings
<04611>_,
and I will cause you to dwell
<07931> (8762)
in this place
<04725>_.
Trust
<0982> (8799)
ye not in lying
<08267>
words
<01697>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The temple
<01964>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
The temple
<01964>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
The temple
<01964>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
[are] these.
For if ye throughly
<03190> (8687)
amend
<03190> (8686)
your ways
<01870>
and your doings
<04611>_;
if ye throughly
<06213> (8800)
execute
<06213> (8799)
judgment
<04941>
between a man
<0376>
and his neighbour
<07453>_;
[If] ye oppress
<06231> (8799)
not the stranger
<01616>_,
the fatherless
<03490>_,
and the widow
<0490>_,
and shed
<08210> (8799)
not innocent
<05355>
blood
<01818>
in this place
<04725>_,
neither walk
<03212> (8799)
after
<0310>
other
<0312>
gods
<0430>
to your hurt
<07451>_:
Then will I cause you to dwell
<07931> (8765)
in this place
<04725>_,
in the land
<0776>
that I gave
<05414> (8804)
to your fathers
<01>_,
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>
and ever
<05769>_.
Behold, ye trust
<0982> (8802)
in lying
<08267>
words
<01697>_,
that cannot profit
<03276> (8687)_.
Will ye steal
<01589> (8800)_,
murder
<07523> (8800)_,
and commit adultery
<05003> (8800)_,
and swear
<07650> (8736)
falsely
<08267>_,
and burn incense
<06999> (8763)
unto Baal
<01168>_,
and walk
<01980> (8800)
after
<0310>
other
<0312>
gods
<0430>
whom ye know
<03045> (8804)
not;
And come
<0935> (8804)
and stand
<05975> (8804)
before
<06440>
me in this house
<01004>_,
which is called
<07121> (8738)
by my name
<08034>_,
and say
<0559> (8804)_,
We are delivered
<05337> (8738)
to do
<06213> (8800)
all these abominations
<08441>_?
{which...: Heb. whereupon my name is called}
Is this house
<01004>_,
which is called
<07121> (8738)
by my name
<08034>_,
become a den
<04631>
of robbers
<06530>
in your eyes
<05869>_?
Behold, even I have seen
<07200> (8804)
[it], saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
But go
<03212> (8798)
ye now unto my place
<04725>
which [was] in Shiloh
<07887>_,
where I set
<07931> (8765)
my name
<08034>
at the first
<07223>_,
and see
<07200> (8798)
what I did
<06213> (8804)
to it for
<06440>
the wickedness
<07451>
of my people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_.
And now, because ye have done
<06213> (8800)
all these works
<04639>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
and I spake
<01696> (8762)
unto you, rising up early
<07925> (8687)
and speaking
<01696> (8763)_,
but ye heard
<08085> (8804)
not; and I called
<07121> (8799)
you, but ye answered
<06030> (8804)
not;
Therefore will I do
<06213> (8804)
unto [this] house
<01004>_,
which is called
<07121> (8738)
by my name
<08034>_,
wherein ye trust
<0982> (8802)_,
and unto the place
<04725>
which I gave
<05414> (8804)
to you and to your fathers
<01>_,
as I have done
<06213> (8804)
to Shiloh
<07887>_.
And I will cast you out
<07993> (8689)
of my sight
<06440>_,
as I have cast out
<07993> (8689)
all your brethren
<0251>_,
[even] the whole seed
<02233>
of Ephraim
<0669>_.
Therefore pray
<06419> (8691)
not thou for this people
<05971>_,
neither lift up
<05375> (8799)
cry
<07440>
nor prayer
<08605>
for them
<01157>_,
neither make intercession
<06293> (8799)
to me: for I will not hear
<08085> (8802)
thee.
Seest
<07200> (8802)
thou not what they do
<06213> (8802)
in the cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>
and in the streets
<02351>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_?
The children
<01121>
gather
<03950> (8764)
wood
<06086>_,
and the fathers
<01>
kindle
<01197> (8764)
the fire
<0784>_,
and the women
<0802>
knead
<03888> (8802)
[their] dough
<01217>_,
to make
<06213> (8800)
cakes
<03561>
to the queen
<04446>
of heaven
<08064>_,
and to pour out
<05258> (8687)
drink offerings
<05262>
unto other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_,
that they may provoke me to anger
<03707> (8687)_.
{queen...: or, frame, or, workmanship of heaven}
Do they provoke me to anger
<03707> (8688)_?
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_:
[do they] not [provoke] themselves to the confusion
<01322>
of their own faces
<06440>_?
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_;
Behold, mine anger
<0639>
and my fury
<02534>
shall be poured out
<05413> (8737)
upon this place
<04725>_,
upon man
<0120>_,
and upon beast
<0929>_,
and upon the trees
<06086>
of the field
<07704>_,
and upon the fruit
<06529>
of the ground
<0127>_;
and it shall burn
<01197> (8804)_,
and shall not be quenched
<03518> (8799)_.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Put
<05595> (8798)
your burnt offerings
<05930>
unto your sacrifices
<02077>_,
and eat
<0398> (8798)
flesh
<01320>_.
For I spake
<01696> (8765)
not unto your fathers
<01>_,
nor commanded
<06680> (8765)
them in the day
<03117>
that I brought them out
<03318> (8687)
of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
concerning
<01697>
burnt offerings
<05930>
or sacrifices
<02077>_:
{concerning: Heb. concerning the matter of}
But this thing
<01697>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
I them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Obey
<08085> (8798)
my voice
<06963>_,
and I will be your God
<0430>_,
and ye shall be my people
<05971>_:
and walk
<01980> (8804)
ye in all the ways
<01870>
that I have commanded
<06680> (8762)
you, that it may be well
<03190> (8799)
unto you.
But they hearkened
<08085> (8804)
not, nor inclined
<05186> (8689)
their ear
<0241>_,
but walked
<03212> (8799)
in the counsels
<04156>
[and] in the imagination
<08307>
of their evil
<07451>
heart
<03820>_,
and went backward
<0268>_,
and not forward
<06440>_.
{imagination: or, stubbornness} {went: Heb. were}
Since the day
<03117>
that your fathers
<01>
came forth out
<03318> (8804)
of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>
unto this day
<03117>
I have even sent
<07971> (8799)
unto you all my servants
<05650>
the prophets
<05030>_,
daily
<03117>
rising up early
<07925> (8687)
and sending
<07971> (8800)
[them]:
Yet they hearkened
<08085> (8804)
not unto me, nor inclined
<05186> (8689)
their ear
<0241>_,
but hardened
<07185> (8686)
their neck
<06203>_:
they did worse
<07489> (8689)
than their fathers
<01>_.
Therefore thou shalt speak
<01696> (8765)
all these words
<01697>
unto them; but they will not hearken
<08085> (8799)
to thee: thou shalt also call
<07121> (8804)
unto them; but they will not answer
<06030> (8799)
thee.
But thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, This [is] a nation
<01471>
that obeyeth
<08085> (8804)
not the voice
<06963>
of the LORD
<03068>
their God
<0430>_,
nor receiveth
<03947> (8804)
correction
<04148>_:
truth
<0530>
is perished
<06> (8804)_,
and is cut off
<03772> (8738)
from their mouth
<06310>_.
{correction: or, instruction}
Cut off
<01494> (8798)
thine hair
<05145>_,
[O Jerusalem], and cast [it] away
<07993> (8685)_,
and take up
<05375> (8798)
a lamentation
<07015>
on high places
<08205>_;
for the LORD
<03068>
hath rejected
<03988> (8804)
and forsaken
<05203> (8799)
the generation
<01755>
of his wrath
<05678>_.
For the children
<01121>
of Judah
<03063>
have done
<06213> (8804)
evil
<07451>
in my sight
<05869>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_:
they have set
<07760> (8804)
their abominations
<08251>
in the house
<01004>
which is called
<07121> (8738)
by my name
<08034>_,
to pollute
<02930> (8763)
it.
And they have built
<01129> (8804)
the high places
<01116>
of Tophet
<08612>_,
which [is] in the valley
<01516>
of the son
<01121>
of Hinnom
<02011>_,
to burn
<08313> (8800)
their sons
<01121>
and their daughters
<01323>
in the fire
<0784>_;
which I commanded
<06680> (8765)
[them] not, neither came
<05927> (8804)
it into my heart
<03820>_.
{came...: Heb. came it upon my heart}
Therefore, behold, the days
<03117>
come
<0935> (8802)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that it shall no more be called
<0559> (8735)
Tophet
<08612>_,
nor the valley
<01516>
of the son
<01121>
of Hinnom
<02011>_,
but the valley
<01516>
of slaughter
<02028>_:
for they shall bury
<06912> (8804)
in Tophet
<08612>_,
till there be no
<0369>
place
<04725>_.
And the carcases
<05038>
of this people
<05971>
shall be meat
<03978>
for the fowls
<05775>
of the heaven
<08064>_,
and for the beasts
<0929>
of the earth
<0776>_;
and none shall fray [them] away
<02729> (8688)_.
Then will I cause to cease
<07673> (8689)
from the cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and from the streets
<02351>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
the voice
<06963>
of mirth
<08342>_,
and the voice
<06963>
of gladness
<08057>_,
the voice
<06963>
of the bridegroom
<02860>_,
and the voice
<06963>
of the bride
<03618>_:
for the land
<0776>
shall be desolate
<02723>_.
At that time
<06256>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
they shall bring out
<03318> (8686)
the bones
<06106>
of the kings
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and the bones
<06106>
of his princes
<08269>_,
and the bones
<06106>
of the priests
<03548>_,
and the bones
<06106>
of the prophets
<05030>_,
and the bones
<06106>
of the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
out of their graves
<06913>_:
And they shall spread
<07849> (8804)
them before the sun
<08121>_,
and the moon
<03394>_,
and all the host
<06635>
of heaven
<08064>_,
whom they have loved
<0157> (8804)_,
and whom they have served
<05647> (8804)_,
and after
<0310>
whom they have walked
<01980> (8804)_,
and whom they have sought
<01875> (8804)_,
and whom they have worshipped
<07812> (8694)_:
they shall not be gathered
<0622> (8735)_,
nor be buried
<06912> (8735)_;
they shall be for dung
<01828>
upon the face
<06440>
of the earth
<0127>_.
And death
<04194>
shall be chosen
<0977> (8738)
rather than life
<02416>
by all the residue
<07611>
of them that remain
<07604> (8737)
of this evil
<07451>
family
<04940>_,
which remain
<07604> (8737)
in all the places
<04725>
whither I have driven
<05080> (8689)
them, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_.
