Jeremiah 43

1And it came to pass that, when JeremiahH3414 had made an endH3615 of speakingH1696 unto all the peopleH5971 all the wordsH1697 of Jehovah their GodH430, wherewith Jehovah their GodH430 had sentH7971 him to them, even all these wordsH1697, 2then spake AzariahH5838 the sonH1121 of HoshaiahH1955, and JohananH3110 the sonH1121 of KareahH7143, and all the proud menH376, sayingH559 unto JeremiahH3414, Thou speakest falsely: Jehovah our GodH430 hath not sentH7971 thee to sayH559, Ye shall not goH935 into EgyptH4714 to sojourn there; 3but BaruchH1263 the sonH1121 of NeriahH5374 setteth thee on against us, to deliver us into the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778, that they may putH5414 us to deathH4191, and carry us away captive to BabylonH894. 4So JohananH3110 the sonH1121 of KareahH7143, and all the captains of the forces, and all the peopleH5971, obeyed not the voiceH6963 of Jehovah, to dwellH3427 in the landH776 of JudahH3063. 5But JohananH3110 the sonH1121 of KareahH7143, and all the captains of the forces, tookH3947 all the remnantH7611 of JudahH3063, that were returnedH7725 from all the nationsH1471 whither they had been drivenH5080, to sojourn in the landH776 of JudahH3063; 6the men, and the womenH802, and the children, and the king’sH4428 daughtersH1323, and every personH5315 that NebuzaradanH5018 the captain of the guard had left with GedaliahH1436 the sonH1121 of AhikamH296, the sonH1121 of ShaphanH8227; and JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, and BaruchH1263 the sonH1121 of NeriahH5374. 7And they cameH935 into the landH776 of EgyptH4714; for they obeyed not the voiceH6963 of Jehovah: and they cameH935 unto TahpanhesH8471.

8Then came the wordH1697 of Jehovah unto JeremiahH3414 in TahpanhesH8471, sayingH559, 9TakeH3947 greatH1419 stonesH68 in thy handH3027, and hideH2934 them in mortar in the brickwork, which is at the entry of Pharaoh’s houseH1004 in TahpanhesH8471, in the sight of the menH376 of Judah; 10and sayH559 unto them, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478: Behold, I will sendH7971 and takeH3947 Nebuchadrezzar the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, my servantH5650, and will setH7760 his throneH3678 upon these stonesH68 that I have hidH2934; and he shall spreadH5186 his royal pavilion over them. 11And he shall comeH935, and shall smite the landH776 of EgyptH4714; such as are for deathH4194 shall be given to deathH4194, and such as are for captivityH7628 to captivityH7628, and such as are for the swordH2719 to the swordH2719. 12And I will kindleH3341 a fireH784 in the housesH1004 of the godsH430 of EgyptH4714; and he shall burnH8313 them, and carry them away captiveH7617: and he shall array himself with the landH776 of EgyptH4714, as a shepherdH7462 putteth on his garmentH899; and he shall goH3318 forthH3318 from thence in peaceH7965. 13He shall also breakH7665 the pillarsH4676 of Beth-shemeshH1053, that is in the landH776 of EgyptH4714; and the housesH1004 of the godsH430 of EgyptH4714 shall he burnH8313 with fireH784.
