Jeremiah 8:4--9:26

Moreover thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)

unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_;

Shall they fall
<05307> (8799)_,

and not arise
<06965> (8799)_?

shall he turn away
<07725> (8799)_,

and not return
<07725> (8799)_?

Why [then] is this people
<05971>

of Jerusalem
<03389>

slidden back
<07725> (8790)

by a perpetual
<05329> (8737)

backsliding
<04878>_?

they hold
<02388> (8689)

fast deceit
<08649>_,

they refuse
<03985> (8765)

to return
<07725> (8800)_.

I hearkened
<07181> (8689)

and heard
<08085> (8799)_,

[but] they spake not aright
<01696> (8762)_:

no man
<0376>

repented
<05162> (8737)

him of
<05921>

his wickedness
<07451>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

What have I done
<06213> (8804)_?

every one turned
<07725> (8804)

to his course
<04794>_,

as the horse
<05483>

rusheth
<07857> (8802)

into the battle
<04421>_.

Yea, the stork
<02624>

in the heaven
<08064>

knoweth
<03045> (8804)

her appointed times
<04150>_;

and the turtle
<08449>

and the crane
<05483>

and the swallow
<05693>

observe
<08104> (8804)

the time
<06256>

of their coming
<0935> (8800)_;

but my people
<05971>

know
<03045> (8804)

not the judgment
<04941>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

How do ye say
<0559> (8799)_,

We [are] wise
<02450>_,

and the law
<08451>

of the LORD
<03068>

[is] with us? Lo, certainly
<0403>

in vain
<08267>

made
<06213> (8804)

he [it]; the pen
<05842>

of the scribes
<05608> (8802)

[is] in vain
<08267>_.

{in vain made...: or, the false pen of the scribes worketh for falsehood}

The wise
<02450>

[men] are ashamed
<03001> (8689)_,

they are dismayed
<02865> (8804)

and taken
<03920> (8735)_:

lo, they have rejected
<03988> (8804)

the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_;

and what wisdom
<02451>

[is] in them? {The wise...: or, Have they been ashamed, etc} {what...: Heb. the wisdom of what thing}

Therefore will I give
<05414> (8799)

their wives
<0802>

unto others
<0312>_,

[and] their fields
<07704>

to them that shall inherit
<03423> (8802)

[them]: for every one from the least
<06996>

even unto the greatest
<01419>

is given
<01214> (8802)

to covetousness
<01215>_,

from the prophet
<05030>

even unto the priest
<03548>

every one dealeth
<06213> (8802)

falsely
<08267>_.

For they have healed
<07495> (8762)

the hurt
<07667>

of the daughter
<01323>

of my people
<05971>

slightly
<07043> (8738)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Peace
<07965>_,

peace
<07965>_;

when [there is] no peace
<07965>_.

Were they ashamed
<03001> (8689)

when they had committed
<06213> (8804)

abomination
<08441>_?

nay, they were not at all
<0954> (8800)

ashamed
<0954> (8799)_,

neither could
<03045> (8804)

they blush
<03637> (8736)_:

therefore shall they fall
<05307> (8799)

among them that fall
<05307> (8802)_:

in the time
<06256>

of their visitation
<06486>

they shall be cast down
<03782> (8735)_,

saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_.

{I will...: or, In gathering I will consume}

I will surely
<0622> (8800)

consume
<05486> (8686)

them, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_:

[there shall be] no grapes
<06025>

on the vine
<01612>_,

nor figs
<08384>

on the fig tree
<08384>_,

and the leaf
<05929>

shall fade
<05034> (8804)_;

and [the things that] I have given
<05414> (8799)

them shall pass away
<05674> (8799)

from them.

Why do we sit still
<03427> (8802)_?

assemble
<0622> (8734)

yourselves, and let us enter
<0935> (8799)

into the defenced
<04013>

cities
<05892>_,

and let us be silent
<01826> (8735)

there: for the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>

hath put us to silence
<01826> (8689)_,

and given us water
<04325>

of gall
<07219>

to drink
<08248> (8686)_,

because we have sinned
<02398> (8804)

against the LORD
<03068>_.

{gall: or, poison}

We looked
<06960> (8763)

for peace
<07965>_,

but no good
<02896>

[came; and] for a time
<06256>

of health
<04832>_,

and behold trouble
<01205>_!

The snorting
<05170>

of his horses
<05483>

was heard
<08085> (8738)

from Dan
<01835>_:

the whole land
<0776>

trembled
<07493> (8804)

at the sound
<06963>

of the neighing
<04684>

of his strong ones
<047>_;

for they are come
<0935> (8799)_,

and have devoured
<0398> (8799)

the land
<0776>_,

and all
<04393>

that is in it; the city
<05892>_,

and those that dwell
<03427> (8802)

therein. {all...: Heb. the fulness thereof}

For, behold, I will send
<07971> (8764)

serpents
<05175>_,

cockatrices
<06848>_,

among you, which [will] not [be] charmed
<03908>_,

and they shall bite
<05391> (8765)

you, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

[When] I would comfort
<04010>

myself against sorrow
<03015>_,

my heart
<03820>

[is] faint
<01742>

in me. {in: Heb. upon}

Behold the voice
<06963>

of the cry
<07775>

of the daughter
<01323>

of my people
<05971>

because of them that dwell in a far
<04801>

country
<0776>_:

[Is] not the LORD
<03068>

in Zion
<06726>_?

[is] not her king
<04428>

in her? Why have they provoked me to anger
<03707> (8689)

with their graven images
<06456>_,

[and] with strange
<05236>

vanities
<01892>_?

{them...: Heb. the country of them that are far off}

The harvest
<07105>

is past
<05674> (8804)_,

the summer
<07019>

is ended
<03615> (8804)_,

and we are not saved
<03467> (8738)_.

For the hurt
<07667>

of the daughter
<01323>

of my people
<05971>

am I hurt
<07665> (8717)_;

I am black
<06937> (8804)_;

astonishment
<08047>

hath taken hold
<02388> (8689)

on me.

[Is there] no balm
<06875>

in Gilead
<01568>_;

[is there] no physician
<07495> (8802)

there? why then
<03588>

is not the health
<0724>

of the daughter
<01323>

of my people
<05971>

recovered
<05927> (8804)_?

{recovered: Heb. gone up?}

Oh that
<05414> (8799)

my head
<07218>

were waters
<04325>_,

and mine eyes
<05869>

a fountain
<04726>

of tears
<01832>_,

that I might weep
<01058> (8799)

day
<03119>

and night
<03915>

for the slain
<02491>

of the daughter
<01323>

of my people
<05971>_!

{Oh...: Heb. Who will give my head, etc}

Oh that
<05414> (8799)

I had in the wilderness
<04057>

a lodging place
<04411>

of wayfaring men
<0732> (8802)_;

that I might leave
<05800> (8799)

my people
<05971>_,

and go
<03212> (8799)

from them! for they [be] all adulterers
<05003> (8764)_,

an assembly
<06116>

of treacherous men
<0898> (8802)_.

And they bend
<01869> (8686)

their tongues
<03956>

[like] their bow
<07198>

[for] lies
<08267>_:

but they are not valiant
<01396> (8804)

for the truth
<0530>

upon the earth
<0776>_;

for they proceed
<03318> (8804)

from evil
<07451>

to evil
<07451>_,

and they know
<03045> (8804)

not me, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

Take ye heed
<08104> (8734)

every one
<0376>

of his neighbour
<07453>_,

and trust
<0982> (8799)

ye not in any brother
<0251>_:

for every brother
<0251>

will utterly
<06117> (8800)

supplant
<06117> (8799)_,

and every neighbour
<07453>

will walk
<01980> (8799)

with slanders
<07400>_.

{neighbour: or, friend}

And they will deceive
<02048> (8762)

every one
<0376>

his neighbour
<07453>_,

and will not speak
<01696> (8762)

the truth
<0571>_:

they have taught
<03925> (8765)

their tongue
<03956>

to speak
<01696> (8763)

lies
<08267>_,

[and] weary
<03811> (8738)

themselves to commit iniquity
<05753> (8687)_.

{deceive: or, mock}

Thine habitation
<03427> (8800)

[is] in the midst
<08432>

of deceit
<04820>_;

through deceit
<04820>

they refuse
<03985> (8765)

to know
<03045> (8800)

me, saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

Behold, I will melt
<06884> (8802)

them, and try
<0974> (8804)

them; for how shall I do
<06213> (8799)

for
<06440>

the daughter
<01323>

of my people
<05971>_?

Their tongue
<03956>

[is as] an arrow
<02671>

shot out
<07819> (8803)_;

it speaketh
<01696> (8765)

deceit
<04820>_:

[one] speaketh
<01696> (8762)

peaceably
<07965>

to his neighbour
<07453>

with his mouth
<06310>_,

but in heart
<07130>

he layeth
<07760> (8799)

his wait
<0696>_.

{in heart: Heb. in the midst of him} {his wait: or, wait for him}

Shall I not visit
<06485> (8799)

them for these [things]? saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_:

shall not my soul
<05315>

be avenged
<05358> (8691)

on such a nation
<01471>

as this?

For the mountains
<02022>

will I take up
<05375> (8799)

a weeping
<01065>

and wailing
<05092>_,

and for the habitations
<04999>

of the wilderness
<04057>

a lamentation
<07015>_,

because they are burned up
<03341> (8738)_,

so that none
<0376>

can pass
<05674> (8802)

through [them]; neither can [men] hear
<08085> (8804)

the voice
<06963>

of the cattle
<04735>_;

both the fowl
<05775>

of the heavens
<08064>

and the beast
<0929>

are fled
<05074> (8804)_;

they are gone
<01980> (8804)_.

{habitations: or, pastures} {burned up: or, desolate} {both...: Heb. from the fowl even to, etc}

And I will make
<05414> (8804)

Jerusalem
<03389>

heaps
<01530>_,

[and] a den
<04583>

of dragons
<08577>_;

and I will make
<05414> (8799)

the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>

desolate
<08077>_,

without an inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_.

{desolate: Heb. desolation}

Who [is] the wise
<02450>

man
<0376>_,

that may understand
<0995> (8799)

this? and [who is he] to whom the mouth
<06310>

of the LORD
<03068>

hath spoken
<01696> (8765)_,

that he may declare
<05046> (8686)

it, for what the land
<0776>

perisheth
<06> (8804)

[and] is burned up
<03341> (8738)

like a wilderness
<04057>_,

that none passeth through
<05674> (8802)_?

And the LORD
<03068>

saith
<0559> (8799)_,

Because they have forsaken
<05800> (8800)

my law
<08451>

which I set
<05414> (8804)

before
<06440>

them, and have not obeyed
<08085> (8804)

my voice
<06963>_,

neither walked
<01980> (8804)

therein;

But have walked
<03212> (8799)

after
<0310>

the imagination
<08307>

of their own heart
<03820>_,

and after
<0310>

Baalim
<01168>_,

which their fathers
<01>

taught
<03925> (8765)

them: {imagination: or, stubbornness}

Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_;

Behold, I will feed
<0398> (8688)

them, [even] this people
<05971>_,

with wormwood
<03939>_,

and give them water
<04325>

of gall
<07219>

to drink
<08248> (8689)_.

I will scatter
<06327> (8689)

them also among the heathen
<01471>_,

whom neither they nor their fathers
<01>

have known
<03045> (8804)_:

and I will send
<07971> (8765)

a sword
<02719>

after
<0310>

them, till I have consumed
<03615> (8763)

them.

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

Consider
<0995> (8708)

ye, and call
<07121> (8798)

for the mourning women
<06969> (8789)_,

that they may come
<0935> (8799)_;

and send
<07971> (8798)

for cunning
<02450>

[women], that they may come
<0935> (8799)_:

And let them make haste
<04116> (8762)_,

and take up
<05375> (8799)

a wailing
<05092>

for us, that our eyes
<05869>

may run down
<03381> (8799)

with tears
<01832>_,

and our eyelids
<06079>

gush out
<05140> (8799)

with waters
<04325>_.

For a voice
<06963>

of wailing
<05092>

is heard
<08085> (8738)

out of Zion
<06726>_,

How are we spoiled
<07703> (8795)_!

we are greatly
<03966>

confounded
<0954> (8804)_,

because we have forsaken
<05800> (8804)

the land
<0776>_,

because our dwellings
<04908>

have cast [us] out
<07993> (8689)_.

Yet hear
<08085> (8798)

the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

O ye women
<0802>_,

and let your ear
<0241>

receive
<03947> (8799)

the word
<01697>

of his mouth
<06310>_,

and teach
<03925> (8761)

your daughters
<01323>

wailing
<05092>_,

and every one
<0802>

her neighbour
<07468>

lamentation
<07015>_.

For death
<04194>

is come up
<05927> (8804)

into our windows
<02474>_,

[and] is entered
<0935> (8804)

into our palaces
<0759>_,

to cut off
<03772> (8687)

the children
<05768>

from without
<02351>_,

[and] the young men
<0970>

from the streets
<07339>_.

Speak
<01696> (8761)_,

Thus saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Even the carcases
<05038>

of men
<0120>

shall fall
<05307> (8804)

as dung
<01828>

upon the open
<06440>

field
<07704>_,

and as the handful
<05995>

after
<0310>

the harvestman
<07114> (8802)_,

and none shall gather
<0622> (8764)

[them].

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Let not the wise
<02450>

[man] glory
<01984> (8691)

in his wisdom
<02451>_,

neither let the mighty
<01368>

[man] glory
<01984> (8691)

in his might
<01369>_,

let not the rich
<06223>

[man] glory
<01984> (8691)

in his riches
<06239>_:

But let him that glorieth
<01984> (8693)

glory
<01984> (8691)

in this, that he understandeth
<07919> (8687)

and knoweth
<03045> (8800)

me, that I [am] the LORD
<03068>

which exercise
<06213> (8802)

lovingkindness
<02617>_,

judgment
<04941>_,

and righteousness
<06666>_,

in the earth
<0776>_:

for in these [things] I delight
<02654> (8804)_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_.

Behold, the days
<03117>

come
<0935> (8802)_,

saith
<05002> (8803)

the LORD
<03068>_,

that I will punish
<06485> (8804)

all [them which are] circumcised
<04135> (8803)

with the uncircumcised
<06190>_;

{punish: Heb. visit upon}

Egypt
<04714>_,

and Judah
<03063>_,

and Edom
<0123>_,

and the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_,

and Moab
<04124>_,

and all [that are] in the utmost
<07112> (8803)

corners
<06285>_,

that dwell
<03427> (8802)

in the wilderness
<04057>_:

for all [these] nations
<01471>

[are] uncircumcised
<06189>_,

and all the house
