Jeremiah 1:11-16
11And the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me, sayingH559, “WhatH4100 do you seeH7200, 1JeremiahH3414?” And I saidH559, “I seeH7200 a branchH4731 of an 2almondH8247 treeH8247.” 12Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to me, “You have seenH7200 wellH3190, for 3I am 4watchingH8245 overH5921 My wordH1697 to performH6213 it.”
13And the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me a secondH8145 timeH8145, sayingH559, “5WhatH4100 do you seeH7200?” And I saidH559, “I seeH7200 a boilingH5301 6potH5518, facingH6440 away from the northH6828.” 14Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to me, “7Out of the northH6828 the evilH7463 8will be unleashedH6605 on allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776. 15For, beholdH2009, I am callingH7121 9allH3605 the familiesH4940 of the kingdomsH4467 of the northH6828,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068; “and they will comeH935 and 10placeH5414, eachH376 oneH376 of them, his throneH3678 at the entranceH6607 of the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389, and againstH5921 allH3605 its wallsH2346 aroundH5439, and againstH5921 allH3605 the 11citiesH5892 of JudahH3063. 16And I will 12pronounceH1696 My judgmentsH4941 againstH854 them concerningH5921 allH3605 their wickednessH7463, sinceH834 they have 13abandonedH5800 Me and have 1415offeredH6999 sacrificesH6999 to otherH312 godsH430, and worshipedH2331 the 16worksH4639 of their own handsH3027.
