Jeremiah 5:10-18
10Go upH5927 through her vineyardsH8284 and ravage themH7843, but do notH408 finish them offH3617H6213. Strip offH5493 her branchesH5189, forH3588 theyH1992 do notH3808 belong to the LORDH3068.11ForH3588 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 have been utterly unfaithfulH898 to Me,” declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.
12They have liedH3584 about the LORDH3068 and saidH559:
“HeH1931 will not do anythingH3808; harmH7451 will notH3808 comeH935 to usH5921;we will notH3808 seeH7200 swordH2719 or famineH7458.13The prophetsH5030 areH1961 but windH7307,for the wordH1699 is notH369 in them.So letH3541 their own predictions befallH6213 them.1”
14ThereforeH3651 this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of HostsH6635 saysH559:
“BecauseH3282 you have spokenH1696 thisH2088H2005 wordH1697,I will makeH5414 My wordsH1697 a fireH784 in your mouthH6310and thisH2088 peopleH5971 the woodH6086 it consumesH398.15BeholdH2005, I am bringingH935 a distantH4801 nationH1471 against youH5921,O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478,” declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.“ItH1931 is an establishedH386 nationH1471,an ancientH5769H1931 nationH1471,a nationH1471 whose languageH3956 you do notH3808 knowH3045and whose speechH4100H1696 you do notH3808 understandH8085.16Their quiversH827 are like openH6605 gravesH6913;they are allH3605 mighty menH1368.17They will devourH398 your harvestH7105 and foodH3899;they will consumeH398 your sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323;they will eat upH398 your flocksH6629 and herdsH1241;they will feed onH398 your vinesH1612 and fig treesH8384.With the swordH2719 they will destroyH7567the fortifiedH4013 citiesH5892 in whichH834 youH859 trustH982.”
18“Yet evenH1571 in thoseH1992 daysH3117,” declaresH5002 the LORDH3068, “I will notH3808 makeH6213 a full endH3617 of youH854.
