Jeremiah 29:1-23

Now these [are] the words
<01697>

of the letter
<05612>

that Jeremiah
<03414>

the prophet
<05030>

sent
<07971> (8804)

from Jerusalem
<03389>

unto the residue
<03499>

of the elders
<02205>

which were carried away captives
<01473>_,

and to the priests
<03548>_,

and to the prophets
<05030>_,

and to all the people
<05971>

whom Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>

had carried away captive
<01540> (8689)

from Jerusalem
<03389>

to Babylon
<0894>_;

(After
<0310>

that Jeconiah
<03204>

the king
<04428>_,

and the queen
<01377>_,

and the eunuchs
<05631>_,

the princes
<08269>

of Judah
<03063>

and Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and the carpenters
<02796>_,

and the smiths
<04525>_,

were departed
<03318> (8800)

from Jerusalem
<03389>;)

{eunuchs: or, chamberlains}

By the hand
<03027>

of Elasah
<0501>

the son
<01121>

of Shaphan
<08227>_,

and Gemariah
<01587>

the son
<01121>

of Hilkiah
<02518>_,

(whom Zedekiah
<06667>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>

sent
<07971> (8804)

unto Babylon
<0894>

to Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>)

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

unto all that are carried away captives
<01473>_,

whom I have caused to be carried away
<01540> (8689)

from Jerusalem
<03389>

unto Babylon
<0894>_;

Build
<01129> (8798)

ye houses
<01004>_,

and dwell
<03427> (8798)

[in them]; and plant
<05193> (8798)

gardens
<01593>_,

and eat
<0398> (8798)

the fruit
<06529>

of them;

Take
<03947> (8798)

ye wives
<0802>_,

and beget
<03205> (8685)

sons
<01121>

and daughters
<01323>_;

and take
<03947> (8798)

wives
<0802>

for your sons
<01121>_,

and give
<05414> (8798)

your daughters
<01323>

to husbands
<0582>_,

that they may bear
<03205> (8799)

sons
<01121>

and daughters
<01121>_;

that ye may be increased
<07235> (8798)

there, and not diminished
<04591> (8799)_.

And seek
<01875> (8798)

the peace
<07965>

of the city
<05892>

whither I have caused you to be carried away captives
<01540> (8689)_,

and pray
<06419> (8690)

unto the LORD
<03068>

for it: for in the peace
<07965>

thereof shall ye have peace
<07965>_.

For thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Let not your prophets
<05030>

and your diviners
<07080> (8802)_,

that [be] in the midst
<07130>

of you, deceive
<05377> (8686)

you, neither hearken
<08085> (8799)

to your dreams
<02472>

which ye cause to be dreamed
<02492> (8688)_.

For they prophesy
<05012> (8737)

falsely
<08267>

unto you in my name
<08034>_:

I have not sent
<07971> (8804)

them, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

{falsely: Heb. in a lie}

For thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

That after
<06310>

seventy
<07657>

years
<08141>

be accomplished
<04390> (8800)

at Babylon
<0894>

I will visit
<06485> (8799)

you, and perform
<06965> (8689)

my good
<02896>

word
<01697>

toward you, in causing you to return
<07725> (8687)

to this place
<04725>_.

For I know
<03045> (8804)

the thoughts
<04284>

that I think
<02803> (8802)

toward you, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

thoughts
<04284>

of peace
<07965>_,

and not of evil
<07451>_,

to give
<05414> (8800)

you an expected
<08615>

end
<0319>_.

{expected...: Heb. end and expectation}

Then shall ye call
<07121> (8804)

upon me, and ye shall go
<01980> (8804)

and pray
<06419> (8694)

unto me, and I will hearken
<08085> (8804)

unto you.

And ye shall seek
<01245> (8765)

me, and find
<04672> (8804)

[me], when ye shall search
<01875> (8799)

for me with all your heart
<03824>_.

And I will be found
<04672> (8738)

of you, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_:

and I will turn away
<07725> (8804)

your captivity
<07622> (8675) <07622>_,

and I will gather
<06908> (8765)

you from all the nations
<01471>_,

and from all the places
<04725>

whither I have driven
<05080> (8689)

you, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_;

and I will bring you again
<07725> (8689)

into the place
<04725>

whence I caused you to be carried away captive
<01540> (8689)_.

Because ye have said
<0559> (8804)_,

The LORD
<03068>

hath raised us up
<06965> (8689)

prophets
<05030>

in Babylon
<0894>_;

[Know] that thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of the king
<04428>

that sitteth
<03427> (8802)

upon the throne
<03678>

of David
<01732>_,

and of all the people
<05971>

that dwelleth
<03427> (8802)

in this city
<05892>_,

[and] of your brethren
<0251>

that are not gone forth
<03318> (8804)

with you into captivity
<01473>_;

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_;

Behold, I will send
<07971> (8764)

upon them the sword
<02719>_,

the famine
<07458>_,

and the pestilence
<01698>_,

and will make
<05414> (8804)

them like vile
<08182>

figs
<08384>_,

that cannot be eaten
<0398> (8735)_,

they are so evil
<07455>_.

And I will persecute
<07291> (8804)

them
<0310>

with the sword
<02719>_,

with the famine
<07458>_,

and with the pestilence
<01698>_,

and will deliver
<05414> (8804)

them to be removed
<02189> (8675) <02113>

to all the kingdoms
<04467>

of the earth
<0776>_,

to be a curse
<0423>_,

and an astonishment
<08047>_,

and an hissing
<08322>_,

and a reproach
<02781>_,

among all the nations
<01471>

whither I have driven
<05080> (8689)

them: {to be a curse: Heb. for a curse}

Because they have not hearkened
<08085> (8804)

to my words
<01697>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

which I sent
<07971> (8804)

unto them by my servants
<05650>

the prophets
<05030>_,

rising up early
<07925> (8687)

and sending
<07971> (8800)

[them]; but ye would not hear
<08085> (8804)_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

Hear
<08085> (8798)

ye therefore the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

all ye of the captivity
<01473>_,

whom I have sent
<07971> (8765)

from Jerusalem
<03389>

to Babylon
<0894>_:

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

of Ahab
<0256>

the son
<01121>

of Kolaiah
<06964>_,

and of Zedekiah
<06667>

the son
<01121>

of Maaseiah
<04641>_,

which prophesy
<05012> (8737)

a lie
<08267>

unto you in my name
<08034>_;

Behold, I will deliver
<05414> (8802)

them into the hand
<03027>

of Nebuchadrezzar
<05019>

king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>_;

and he shall slay
<05221> (8689)

them before your eyes
<05869>_;

And of them shall be taken up
<03947> (8795)

a curse
<07045>

by all the captivity
<01546>

of Judah
<03063>

which [are] in Babylon
<0894>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The LORD
<03068>

make
<07760> (8799)

thee like Zedekiah
<06667>

and like Ahab
<0256>_,

whom the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

roasted
<07033> (8804)

in the fire
<0784>_;

Because they have committed
<06213> (8804)

villany
<05039>

in Israel
<03478>_,

and have committed
<06213> (8804)

adultery
<05003> (8762)

with their neighbours
<07453>_'

wives
<0802>_,

and have spoken
<01696> (8762)

lying
<08267>

words
<01697>

in my name
<08034>_,

which I have not commanded
<06680> (8765)

them; even I know
<03045> (8802)_,

and [am] a witness
<05707>_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.
