And Shephatiah the son of Mattan, and Gedaliah the son of Pashhur, and Jucal the son of Shelemiah, and Pashhur the son of Malchijah, heard the words that Jeremiah spake unto all the people, saying, |
|
38:1 ¶
Then Shephatiah°
the son°
of Mattan,°
and Gedaliah°
the son°
of Pashur,°
and Jucal°
the son°
of Shelemiah,°
and Pashur°
the son°
of Malchiah,°
heard°°°
the words°
that°
Jeremiah°
had spoken°°
unto°
all°
the people,°
saying,°° |
|
38:2
Thus saith Jehovah, He that abideth in this city shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence; but he that goeth forth to the Chaldeans shall live, and his life shall be unto him for a prey, and he shall live. |
|
38:2
Thus°
saith°°
the LORD,°
He that remaineth°°
in this°
city°
shall die°°
by the sword,°
by the famine,°
and by the pestilence:°
but he that goeth forth°°
to°
the Chaldeans°
shall live;°°
for he shall have°
his life°
for a prey,°
and shall live.°°°°° |
|
38:3
Thus saith Jehovah, This city shall surely be given into the hand of the army of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it. |
|
38:3
Thus°
saith°°
the LORD,°
This°
city°
shall surely°°
be given°°
into the hand°
of the king°
of Babylon's°
army,°
which shall take°°
it. |
|
38:4
Then the princes said unto the king, Let this man, we pray thee, be put to death; forasmuch as he weakeneth the hands of the men of war that remain in this city, and the hands of all the people, in speaking such words unto them: for this man seeketh not the welfare of this people, but the hurt. |
|
38:4
Therefore the princes°
said°°
unto°
the king,°
We beseech thee,°
let°
this°
man°
be put to death:°°
for°
thus°°
he°
weakeneth°°°
the hands°
of the men°°
of war°
that remain°°
in this°
city,°
and the hands°
of all°
the people,°
in speaking°°
such°
words°
unto°
them: for°
this°
man°
seeketh°°
not°
the welfare°
of this°
people,°
but°°
the hurt.° |
|
38:5
And Zedekiah the king said, Behold, he is in your hand; for the king is not he that can do anything against you. |
|
38:5
Then Zedekiah°
the king°
said,°°
Behold,°
he°
[is] in your hand:°
for°
the king°
[is] not°
[he that] can°°
do°
[any] thing°
against you. |
|
38:6
Then took they Jeremiah, and cast him into the dungeon of Malchijah the king's son, that was in the court of the guard: and they let down Jeremiah with cords. And in the dungeon there was no water, but mire; and Jeremiah sank in the mire. |
|
38:6
Then took°°
they°
Jeremiah,°
and cast°°
him into°
the dungeon°
of Malchiah°
the son°
of Hammelech,°°
that°
[was] in the court°
of the prison:°
and they let down°°°
Jeremiah°
with cords.°
And in the dungeon°
[there was] no°
water,°
but°°
mire:°
so Jeremiah°
sunk°°
in the mire.° |
|
38:7 ¶
Now when Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, a eunuch, who was in the king's house, heard that they had put Jeremiah in the dungeon (the king then sitting in the gate of Benjamin,) |
|
38:7 ¶
Now when Ebedmelech°
the Ethiopian,°
one°
of the eunuchs°
which°
was in the king's°
house,°
heard°°
that°
they had put°°°
Jeremiah°
in°
the dungeon;°
the king°
then sitting°°
in the gate°
of Benjamin;° |
|
38:8
Ebed-melech went forth out of the king's house, and spake to the king, saying, |
|
38:8
Ebedmelech°
went forth°°
out of the king's°
house,°°
and spake°°
to°
the king,°
saying,°° |
|
38:9
My lord the king, these men have done evil in all that they have done to Jeremiah the prophet, whom they have cast into the dungeon; and he is like to die in the place where he is, because of the famine; for there is no more bread in the city. |
|
38:9
My lord°
the king,°
these°
men°°
have done evil°°
in°
all°
that°
they have done°°
to Jeremiah°
the prophet,°°
whom°
they have cast°°
into°
the dungeon;°
and he is like to die°°
for°°
hunger°
in the place°
where°
he is: for°
[there is] no°
more°
bread°
in the city.° |
|
38:10
Then the king commanded Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, saying, Take from hence thirty men with thee, and take up Jeremiah the prophet out of the dungeon, before he die. |
|
38:10
Then the king°
commanded°°°
Ebedmelech°
the Ethiopian,°
saying,°°
Take°°
from hence°°
thirty°
men°°
with°
thee,°
and take up°°°
Jeremiah°
the prophet°
out of°
the dungeon,°
before°
he die.°° |
|
38:11
So Ebed-melech took the men with him, and went into the house of the king under the treasury, and took thence rags and worn-out garments, and let them down by cords into the dungeon to Jeremiah. |
|
38:11
So Ebedmelech°
took°°°
the men°°
with°
him,°
and went°°
into°
the house°
of the king°
under°°
the treasury,°
and took°°
thence°°
old°
cast clouts°
and old°
rotten rags,°
and let them down°°
by cords°
into°
the dungeon°
to°
Jeremiah.° |
|
38:12
And Ebed-melech the Ethiopian said unto Jeremiah, Put now these rags and worn-out garments under thine armholes under the cords. And Jeremiah did so. |
|
38:12
And Ebedmelech°
the Ethiopian°
said°°
unto°
Jeremiah,°
Put°°
now°
[these] old°
cast clouts°
and rotten rags°
under°
thine armholes°°
under°°
the cords.°
And Jeremiah°
did°°
so.° |
|
38:13
So they drew up Jeremiah with the cords, and took him up out of the dungeon: and Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard. |
|
38:13
So they drew up°°°
Jeremiah°
with cords,°
and took him up°°°
out of°
the dungeon:°
and Jeremiah°
remained°°
in the court°
of the prison.° |
|
38:14 ¶
Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took Jeremiah the prophet unto him into the third entry that is in the house of Jehovah: and the king said unto Jeremiah, I will ask thee a thing; hide nothing from me. |
|
38:14 ¶
Then Zedekiah°
the king°
sent,°°
and took°°°
Jeremiah°
the prophet°
unto°
him into°
the third°
entry°
that°
[is] in the house°
of the LORD:°
and the king°
said°°
unto°
Jeremiah,°
I°
will ask°°
thee a thing;°
hide°°
nothing°°
from°
me. |
|
38:15
Then Jeremiah said unto Zedekiah, If I declare it unto thee, wilt thou not surely put me to death? and if I give thee counsel, thou wilt not hearken unto me. |
|
38:15
Then Jeremiah°
said°°
unto°
Zedekiah,°
If°
I declare°°
[it] unto thee, wilt thou not°
surely°°
put me to death?°°
and if°
I give thee counsel,°°
wilt thou not°
hearken°°
unto°
me? |
|
38:16
So Zedekiah the king sware secretly unto Jeremiah, saying, As Jehovah liveth, that made us this soul, I will not put thee to death, neither will I give thee into the hand of these men that seek thy life. |
|
38:16
So Zedekiah°
the king°
sware°°
secretly°
unto°
Jeremiah,°
saying,°°
[As] the LORD°
liveth,°°
that°
made°°
us°
this°
soul,°
I will not°
put thee to death,°°
neither°
will I give°°
thee into the hand°
of these°
men°°
that°
seek°°°
thy life.° |
|
38:17
Then said Jeremiah unto Zedekiah, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of hosts, the God of Israel: If thou wilt go forth unto the king of Babylon's princes, then thy soul shall live, and this city shall not be burned with fire; and thou shalt live, and thy house. |
|
38:17
Then said°°
Jeremiah°
unto°
Zedekiah,°
Thus°
saith°°
the LORD,°
the God°
of hosts,°
the God°
of Israel;°
If°
thou wilt assuredly°°
go forth°°
unto°
the king°
of Babylon's°
princes,°
then thy soul°
shall live,°°
and this°
city°
shall not°
be burned°°
with fire;°
and thou°
shalt live,°°
and thine house:° |
|
38:18
But if thou wilt not go forth to the king of Babylon's princes, then shall this city be given into the hand of the Chaldeans, and they shall burn it with fire, and thou shalt not escape out of their hand. |
|
38:18
But if°
thou wilt not°
go forth°°
to°
the king°
of Babylon's°
princes,°
then shall this°
city°
be given°°
into the hand°
of the Chaldeans,°
and they shall burn°°
it with fire,°
and thou°
shalt not°
escape°
out°°
of their hand.°° |
|
38:19
And Zedekiah the king said unto Jeremiah, I am afraid of the Jews that are fallen away to the Chaldeans, lest they deliver me into their hand, and they mock me. |
|
38:19
And Zedekiah°
the king°
said°°
unto°
Jeremiah,°
I°
am afraid°°
of°°
the Jews°
that°
are fallen°°
to°
the Chaldeans,°
lest°
they deliver°°
me into their hand,°
and they mock°°
me. |
|
38:20
But Jeremiah said, They shall not deliver thee. Obey, I beseech thee, the voice of Jehovah, in that which I speak unto thee: so it shall be well with thee, and thy soul shall live. |
|
38:20
But Jeremiah°
said,°°
They shall not°
deliver°°
[thee]. Obey,°°
I beseech thee,°
the voice°
of the LORD,°
which°
I°
speak°°
unto°
thee: so it shall be well°°
unto thee, and thy soul°
shall live.°° |
|
38:21
But if thou refuse to go forth, this is the word that Jehovah hath showed me: |
|
38:21
But if°
thou°
refuse°
to go forth,°°
this°
[is] the word°
that°
the LORD°
hath shewed°°
me: |
|
38:22
behold, all the women that are left in the king of Judah's house shall be brought forth to the king of Babylon's princes, and those women shall say, Thy familiar friends have set thee on, and have prevailed over thee: [now that] thy feet are sunk in the mire, they are turned away back. |
|
38:22
And, behold,°
all°
the women°
that°
are left°°
in the king°
of Judah's°
house°
[shall be] brought forth°°
to°
the king°
of Babylon's°
princes,°
and those°
[women] shall say,°°
Thy friends°°°
have set°
thee on,°°
and have prevailed°°
against thee: thy feet°
are sunk°°
in the mire,°
[and] they are turned away°°
back.° |
|
38:23
And they shall bring out all thy wives and thy children to the Chaldeans; and thou shalt not escape out of their hand, but shalt be taken by the hand of the king of Babylon: and thou shalt cause this city to be burned with fire. |
|
38:23
So they shall bring out°°
all°
thy wives°
and thy children°
to°
the Chaldeans:°
and thou°
shalt not°
escape°
out°°
of their hand,°°
but°
shalt be taken°°
by the hand°
of the king°
of Babylon:°
and thou shalt cause this°
city°
to be burned°°
with fire.° |
|
38:24 ¶
Then said Zedekiah unto Jeremiah, Let no man know of these words, and thou shalt not die. |
|
38:24 ¶
Then said°°
Zedekiah°
unto°
Jeremiah,°
Let no°
man°
know°°
of these°
words,°
and thou shalt not°
die.°° |
|
38:25
But if the princes hear that I have talked with thee, and they come unto thee, and say unto thee, Declare unto us now what thou hast said unto the king; hide it not from us, and we will not put thee to death; also what the king said unto thee: |
|
38:25
But if°
the princes°
hear°°
that°
I have talked°°
with°
thee, and they come°°
unto°
thee, and say°°
unto°
thee, Declare°°
unto us now°
what°
thou hast said°°
unto°
the king,°
hide°°
it not°
from°
us, and we will not°
put thee to death;°°
also what°
the king°
said°°
unto°
thee: |
|
38:26
then thou shalt say unto them, I presented my supplication before the king, that he would not cause me to return to Jonathan's house, to die there. |
|
38:26
Then thou shalt say°°
unto°
them, I°
presented°°
my supplication°
before°
the king,°
that he would not°
cause me to return°°
to Jonathan's°°
house,°
to die°°
there.° |
|
38:27
Then came all the princes unto Jeremiah, and asked him; and he told them according to all these words that the king had commanded. So they left off speaking with him; for the matter was not perceived. |
|
38:27
Then came°°
all°

Jeremiah,°

So Jeremiah abode in the court of the guard until the day that Jerusalem was taken. |
