Now when all the captains
<08269>

of the forces
<02428>

which [were] in the fields
<07704>_,

[even] they and their men
<0582>_,

heard
<08085> (8799)

that the king
<04428>

of Babylon
<0894>

had made Gedaliah
<01436>

the son
<01121>

of Ahikam
<0296>

governor
<06485> (8689)

in the land
<0776>_,

and had committed
<06485> (8689)

unto him men
<0582>_,

and women
<0802>_,

and children
<02945>_,

and of the poor
<01803>

of the land
<0776>_,

of them that were not carried away captive
<01540> (8717)

to Babylon
<0894>_;

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>_.

Behold, he shall come up
<05927> (8799)

like a lion
<0738>

from the swelling
<01347>

of Jordan
<03383>

against the habitation
<05116>

of the strong
<0386>_:

but I will suddenly
<07280> (8686)

make him run away
<07323> (8686)

from her: and who [is] a chosen
<0977> (8803)

[man, that] I may appoint
<06485> (8799)

over her? for who [is] like me? and who will appoint me the time
<03259> (8686)_?

and who [is] that shepherd
<07462> (8802)

that will stand
<05975> (8799)

before
<06440>

Behold, he shall come up
<05927> (8799)

like a lion
<0738>

from the swelling
<01347>

of Jordan
<03383>

unto the habitation
<05116>

of the strong
<0386>_:

but I will make
<07323> (0)

them suddenly
<07280> (8686)

run away
<07323> (8686) (8675) <07323> (8799)

from her: and who [is] a chosen
<0977> (8803)

[man, that] I may appoint
<06485> (8799)

over her? for who [is] like me? and who will appoint me the time
<03259> (8686)_?

and who [is] that shepherd
<07462> (8802)

that will stand

before
