Jeremiah 32:2-8

2Now at that timeH227 the armyH2428 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 was besiegingH6696H5921 JerusalemH3389, and JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 was shutH3607 up in the 1courtH2691 of the guardH4307, whichH834 was in the houseH1004 of the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, 3becauseH834 ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 had 2shutH3607 him up, sayingH559, “WhyH4069 do you 3prophesyH5012, sayingH559, ‘4ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, “BeholdH2009, I am about to 5giveH5414 thisH2088 cityH5892 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and he will takeH3920 it; 4and ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 will 6not escapeH4422 out of the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778, but he will surelyH5414 be givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and he will 7speakH1696 with him 8faceH6310 to faceH6310 and seeH7200 him eyeH5869 to eyeH5869; 5and he will 9takeH1980 ZedekiahH6667 to BabylonH894, and he will be thereH8033 untilH5704 I visitH6485 him,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068. “IfH3588 you fightH3898 againstH854 the ChaldeansH3778, you will 10not succeedH6743”’?”

6And JeremiahH3414 saidH559, “The wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me, sayingH559, 7‘BeholdH2009, HanamelH2601 the sonH1121 of ShallumH7967 your uncleH1730 is comingH935 to you, sayingH559, “BuyH7069 for yourself my fieldH7704 whichH834 is at 11AnathothH6068, for you have the 12rightH4941 of redemptionH1353 to buyH7069 it.”’ 8Then HanamelH2601 my uncle’sH1730 sonH1121 cameH935 to me in the 13courtH2691 of the guardH4307 according to the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 and saidH559 to me, ‘BuyH7069 my fieldH7704, pleaseH4994, that is at 14AnathothH6068, whichH834 is in the landH776 of BenjaminH1144; for you have the rightH4941 of possessionH3425 and the redemptionH1353 is yours; buyH7069 it for yourself.’ Then I knewH3045 that thisH1931 was the 15wordH1697 of the LordH3068.
