Jeremiah 26:1-24

In the beginning
<07225>
of the reign
<04468>
of Jehoiakim
<03079>
the son
<01121>
of Josiah
<02977>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
came this word
<01697>
from the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Stand
<05975> (8798)
in the court
<02691>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
house
<01004>_,
and speak
<01696> (8765)
unto all the cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>_,
which come
<0935> (8802)
to worship
<07812> (8692)
in the LORD'S
<03068>
house
<01004>_,
all the words
<01697>
that I command
<06680> (8765)
thee to speak
<01696> (8763)
unto them; diminish
<01639> (8799)
not a word
<01697>_:
If so be they will hearken
<08085> (8799)_,
and turn
<07725> (8799)
every man
<0376>
from his evil
<07451>
way
<01870>_,
that I may repent
<05162> (8738)
me of the evil
<07451>_,
which I purpose
<02803> (8802)
to do
<06213> (8800)
unto them because
<06440>
of the evil
<07455>
of their doings
<04611>_.
And thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
If ye will not hearken
<08085> (8799)
to me, to walk
<03212> (8800)
in my law
<08451>_,
which I have set
<05414> (8804)
before
<06440>
you,
To hearken
<08085> (8800)
to the words
<01697>
of my servants
<05650>
the prophets
<05030>_,
whom I sent
<07971> (8802)
unto you, both rising up early
<07925> (8687)_,
and sending
<07971> (8800)
[them], but ye have not hearkened
<08085> (8804)_;
Then will I make
<05414> (8804)
this house
<01004>
like Shiloh
<07887>_,
and will make
<05414> (8799)
this city
<05892>
a curse
<07045>
to all the nations
<01471>
of the earth
<0776>_.
So the priests
<03548>
and the prophets
<05030>
and all the people
<05971>
heard
<08085> (8799)
Jeremiah
<03414>
speaking
<01696> (8764)
these words
<01697>
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
Now it came to pass, when Jeremiah
<03414>
had made an end
<03615> (8763)
of speaking
<01696> (8763)
all that the LORD
<03068>
had commanded
<06680> (8765)
[him] to speak
<01696> (8763)
unto all the people
<05971>_,
that the priests
<03548>
and the prophets
<05030>
and all the people
<05971>
took
<08610> (8799)
him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thou shalt surely
<04191> (8800)
die
<04191> (8799)_.
Why hast thou prophesied
<05012> (8738)
in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
This house
<01004>
shall be like Shiloh
<07887>_,
and this city
<05892>
shall be desolate
<02717> (8799)
without an inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_?
And all the people
<05971>
were gathered
<06950> (8735)
against Jeremiah
<03414>
in the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
When the princes
<08269>
of Judah
<03063>
heard
<08085> (8799)
these things
<01697>_,
then they came up
<05927> (8799)
from the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>
unto the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and sat down
<03427> (8799)
in the entry
<06607>
of the new
<02319>
gate
<08179>
of the LORD'S
<03068>
[house]. {in the...: or, at the door}
Then spake
<0559> (8799)
the priests
<03548>
and the prophets
<05030>
unto the princes
<08269>
and to all the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
This man
<0376>
[is] worthy
<04941>
to die
<04194>_;
for he hath prophesied
<05012> (8738)
against this city
<05892>_,
as ye have heard
<08085> (8804)
with your ears
<0241>_.
{This man...: Heb. The judgment of death is for this man}
Then spake
<0559> (8799)
Jeremiah
<03414>
unto all the princes
<08269>
and to all the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The LORD
<03068>
sent
<07971> (8804)
me to prophesy
<05012> (8736)
against this house
<01004>
and against this city
<05892>
all the words
<01697>
that ye have heard
<08085> (8804)_.
Therefore now amend
<03190> (8685)
your ways
<01870>
and your doings
<04611>_,
and obey
<08085> (8798)
the voice
<06963>
of the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_;
and the LORD
<03068>
will repent
<05162> (8735)
him of the evil
<07451>
that he hath pronounced
<01696> (8765)
against you.
As for me, behold, I [am] in your hand
<03027>_:
do
<06213> (8798)
with me as seemeth
<05869>
good
<02896>
and meet
<03477>
unto you. {as...: Heb. as it is good and right in your eyes}
But know
<03045> (8799)
ye for certain
<03045> (8800)_,
that if ye put me to death
<04191> (8688)_,
ye shall surely bring
<05414> (8802)
innocent
<05355>
blood
<01818>
upon yourselves, and upon this city
<05892>_,
and upon the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
thereof: for of a truth
<0571>
the LORD
<03068>
hath sent
<07971> (8804)
me unto you to speak
<01696> (8763)
all these words
<01697>
in your ears
<0241>_.
Then said
<0559> (8799)
the princes
<08269>
and all the people
<05971>
unto the priests
<03548>
and to the prophets
<05030>_;
This man
<0376>
[is] not worthy
<04941>
to die
<04194>_:
for he hath spoken
<01696> (8765)
to us in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_.
Then rose up
<06965> (8799)
certain
<0582>
of the elders
<02205>
of the land
<0776>_,
and spake
<0559> (8799)
to all the assembly
<06951>
of the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Micah
<04320>
the Morasthite
<04183>
prophesied
<05012> (8737)
in the days
<03117>
of Hezekiah
<02396>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and spake
<0559> (8799)
to all the people
<05971>
of Judah
<03063>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_;
Zion
<06726>
shall be plowed
<02790> (8735)
[like] a field
<07704>_,
and Jerusalem
<03389>
shall become heaps
<05856>_,
and the mountain
<02022>
of the house
<01004>
as the high places
<01116>
of a forest
<03293>_.
Did Hezekiah
<02396>
king
<04428>
of Judah
<03063>
and all Judah
<03063>
put him at all
<04191> (8687)
to death
<04191> (8689)_?
did he not fear
<03373>
the LORD
<03068>_,
and besought
<02470> (8762)
the LORD
<03068> <06440>_,
and the LORD
<03068>
repented
<05162> (8735)
him of the evil
<07451>
which he had pronounced
<01696> (8765)
against them? Thus
<0587>
might we procure
<06213> (8802)
great
<01419>
evil
<07451>
against our souls
<05315>_.
{the LORD, and the: Heb. the face of the LORD, etc}
And there was also a man
<0376>
that prophesied
<05012> (8693)
in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
Urijah
<0223>
the son
<01121>
of Shemaiah
<08098>
of Kirjathjearim
<07157>_,
who prophesied
<05012> (8735)
against this city
<05892>
and against this land
<0776>
according to all the words
<01697>
of Jeremiah
<03414>_:
And when Jehoiakim
<03079>
the king
<04428>_,
with all his mighty men
<01368>_,
and all the princes
<08269>_,
heard
<08085> (8799)
his words
<01697>_,
the king
<04428>
sought
<01245> (8762)
to put him to death
<04191> (8687)_:
but when Urijah
<0223>
heard
<08085> (8799)
it, he was afraid
<03372> (8799)_,
and fled
<01272> (8799)_,
and went
<0935> (8799)
into Egypt
<04714>_;
And Jehoiakim
<03079>
the king
<04428>
sent
<07971> (8799)
men
<0582>
into Egypt
<04714>_,
[namely], Elnathan
<0494>
the son
<01121>
of Achbor
<05907>_,
and [certain] men
<0582>
with him into Egypt
<04714>_.
And they fetched forth
<03318> (8686)
Urijah
<0223>
out of Egypt
<04714>_,
and brought
<0935> (8686)
him unto Jehoiakim
<03079>
the king
<04428>_;
who slew
<05221> (8686)
him with the sword
<02719>_,
and cast
<07993> (8686)
his dead body
<05038>
into the graves
<06913>
of the common
<01121>
people
<05971>_.
{common...: Heb. sons of the people}
Nevertheless the hand
<03027>
of Ahikam
<0296>
the son
<01121>
of Shaphan
<08227>
was with Jeremiah
<03414>_,
that they should not give
<05414> (8800)
him into the hand
<03027>
of the people
<05971>
to put him to death
<04191> (8687)_.
