In the beginningº

wordº
untoº
Jeremiahº
fromºº
Yahweh,º
saying,ºº |
|
27:2 ¶
Thus said the Lord; Make to thyself bonds and yokes, and put [them] about thy neck, |
|
27:2
Thusº
saithºº
Yahwehº
toº
me; Makeºº
thee bondsº
and yokes,º
and putºº
them uponº
thy neck,º |
|
27:3
and thou shalt send them to the king of Edom{gr.Idumea}, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the children of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Zidon{gr.Sidon}, by the hands of their messengers that come to meet them at Jerusalem to Zedekiah{gr.Sedekias} king of Judah{gr.Juda}. |

them toº

the kingº

and toº
the kingº

And thou shalt commission them to say to their lords, Thus said the Lord God of Israel; Thus shall ye say to your lords; |
|
27:4
And commandºº
them to sayºº
untoº
their adonim,º
Thusº
saithºº
Yahwehº
Sabaoth,º
the Elohimº
of Israel;º
Thusº
shall ye sayºº
untoº
your adonim;º |
|
27:5
I have made the earth by my great power, and with my high arm, and I will give it to whomsoever it shall seem [good] in mine eyes. |
|
27:5
Iº
have madeººº
the earth,ºº
the manº
and the beastº
thatº
[are] uponºº
the ground,º
by my greatº
powerº
and by my outstretchedºº
arm,º
and have givenºº
it unto whomº
it seemedº
meetºº
unto me. |
|
27:6
I gave the earth to Nebuchadnezzar{gr.Nabuchodonosor} king of Babylon to serve him, and the wild beasts of the field to labour for him. |
|
27:6
And nowº
have Iº
givenººº
allº
theseº
landsº
into the handº
of Nebuchadnezzarº
the kingº
of Babylon,º
my servant;º
andº
the beastsº
of the fieldº
have I givenºº
him alsoº
to serveºº
him. |

27:7
[Absent from Manuscript] |
|
27:7
And allº
nationsº
shall serveºº
him, and his son,º
and his son'sº
son,º
untilº
the very timeº
of his landº
come:ºº
and thenº
manyº
nationsº
and greatº
kingsº
shall serveºº
themselves of him.º |
|
27:8
And the nation and kingdom, all that shall not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, with sword and famine will I visit them, saith the Lord, until they are consumed by his hand. |
|
27:8
And it shall come to pass,º
[that] the nationº
and kingdomº
whichº
will notº
serveºº
the sameº
Nebuchadnezzarº
the kingº
of Babylon,º
and thatº
will notº
putººº
their neckº
under the yokeº
of the kingº
of Babylon,º
thatº
nationº
will I punish,ºº
saithºº
Yahweh,º
with the sword,º
and with the famine,º
and with the pestilence,º
untilº
I have consumedºº
them by his hand.º |
|
27:9
And hearken ye not to your false prophets, nor to them that divine to you, nor to them that foretell events by dreams to you, nor to your auguries, nor your sorcerers, that say, Ye shall by no means work for the king of Babylon: |
|
27:9
Therefore hearkenºº
notº
yeº
toº
your prophets,º
nor toº
your diviners,ºº
nor toº
your dreamers,º
nor toº
your enchanters,ºº
nor toº
your sorcerers,º
whichºº
speakºº
untoº
you, saying,ºº
Ye shall notº
serveººº
the kingº
of Babylon:º |
|
27:10
for they prophesy lies to you, to remove you far from your land. |
|
27:10
Forº
theyº
prophesyºº
a lieº
unto you, toº
remove you farººº
fromºº
your land;º
and that I should drive you out,ººº
and ye should perish.ºº |
|
27:11
But the nation which shall put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him, I will even leave it upon its land, and it shall serve him, and dwell in it. |
|
27:11
But the nationsº
thatº
bringººº
their neckº
under the yokeº
of the kingº
of Babylon,º
and serveºº
him, those will I let remainº
stillºº
inº
their own land,º
saithºº
Yahweh;º
and they shall tillºº
it, and dwellºº
therein. |
|
27:12 ¶
I spoke also to Zedekiah{gr.Sedekias} king of Judah{gr.Juda} according to all these words, saying, Put your neck into [the yoke], and serve the king of Babylon. |
|
27:12 ¶
I spakeºº
also toº
Zedekiahº
kingº
of Judahº
according to allº
theseº
words,º
saying,ºº
Bringººº
your necksº
under the yokeº
of the kingº
of Babylon,º
and serveºº
him and his people,º
and live.ºº |

|
27:13
Whyº
will ye die,ºº
thouº
and thy people,º
by the sword,º
by the famine,º
and by the pestilence,º
asº
Yahwehº
hath spokenºº
againstº
the nationº
thatº
will notº
serveººº
the kingº
of Babylon?º |
|
27:14
For they prophesy unrighteous [words] to you, |
|
27:14
Therefore hearkenºº
notº
untoº
the wordsº
of the prophetsº
that speakºº
untoº
you, saying,ºº
Ye shall notº
serveººº
the kingº
of Babylon:º
forº
theyº
prophesyºº
a lieº
unto you. |
|
27:15
for I sent them not, saith the Lord; and they prophesy [in] my name unjustly, that I might destroy you, and ye should perish, and your prophets, who unrighteously prophesy lies to you. |
|
27:15
Forº
I have notº
sentºº
them, saithºº
Yahweh,º
yet theyº
prophesyºº
a lieº
in my name;º
thatº
I might drive you out,ººº
and that ye might perish,ºº
ye,º
and the prophetsº
that prophesyºº
unto you. |
|
27:16
I spoke to you, and to all this people, and to the priests, saying, Thus said the Lord; Hearken not to the words of the prophets that prophesy to you, saying, Behold, the vessels of the Lord's house shall return from Babylon: for they prophesy to you unrighteous [words]. |
|
27:16
Also I spakeºº
toº
the priestsº
and toº
allº
thisº
people,º
saying,ºº
Thusº
saithºº
Yahweh;º
Hearkenºº
notº
toº
the wordsº
of your prophetsº
that prophesyºº
unto you, saying,ºº
Behold,º
the vesselsº
of Yahweh'sº
houseº
shall nowº
shortlyº
be brought againºº
from Babylon:ºº
forº
theyº
prophesyºº
a lieº
unto you. |
|
27:17
I sent them not. |
|
27:17
Hearkenºº
notº
untoº
them; serveººº
the kingº
of Babylon,º
and live:ºº
whereforeº
should thisº
cityº
beº
laid waste?º |
|
27:18
If they are prophets, and if the word of the Lord is in them, let them meet me, for thus has the Lord said. |
|
27:18
But ifº
theyº
[be] prophets,º
and ifº
the wordº
of Yahwehº
beº
withº
them, let them nowº
make intercessionºº
to Yahwehº
Sabaoth,º
that the vesselsº
which are leftºº
in the houseº
of Yahweh,º
and [in] the houseº
of the kingº
of Judah,º
and at Jerusalem,º
goºº
notº
to Babylon.º |
|
27:19 ¶
And as for the remaining vessels, |
|
27:19 ¶
Forº
thusº
saithºº
Yahwehº
Sabaothº
concerningº
the pillars,º
and concerningº
the sea,º
and concerningº
the bases,º
and concerningº
the residueº
of the vesselsº
that remainºº
in thisº
city,º |
|
27:20
which the king of Babylon took not, when he carried Jeconiah{gr.Jechonias} prisoner out of Jerusalem, |
|
27:20
Whichº
Nebuchadnezzarº
kingº
of Babylonº
tookºº
not,º
when he carried away captiveººº
Jeconiahº
the sonº
of Jehoiakimº
kingº
of Judahº
from Jerusalemºº
to Babylon,º
and allº
the noblesº
of Judahº
and Jerusalem;º |
|
27:21
[Absent from Manuscript] |
|
27:21
Yea,º
thusº
saithºº
Yahwehº
Sabaoth,º
the Elohimº
of Israel,º
concerningº
the vesselsº
that remainºº
[in] the houseº
of Yahweh,º
and [in] the houseº
of the kingº
of Judahº
and of Jerusalem;º |
|
27:22
they shall go into Babylon, saith the Lord. |
|
27:22
They shall be carriedºº
to Babylon,º
and thereº
shall they beº
untilº
the dayº
that I visitºº
them, saithºº
Yahweh;º
then will I bringºº
them up,º
and restoreºº
them toº
thisº
place.º |
