Jeremiah 17

1The sinH2403 of JudahH3063 is writtenH3789 with a penH5842 of ironH1270, and with the pointH6856 of a diamondH8068: it is graven uponH5921 the table of their heartH3820, and uponH5921 the hornsH7161 of your altarsH4196; 2whilst their childrenH1121 rememberH2142 their altarsH4196 and their AsherimH842 by the greenH7488 treesH6086 uponH5921 the highH1364 hillsH1389. 3O my mountain in the fieldH7704, I will giveH5414 thy substanceH2428 and allH3605 thy treasuresH214 for a spoilH957, and thy highH1116 placesH1116, becauseH3605 of sinH2403, throughoutH3605 allH3605 thy bordersH1366. 4And thou, evenH5704 of thyself, shalt discontinue from thine heritageH5159 that I gaveH5414 thee; and I will causeH5414 thee to serveH5647 thine enemiesH341 in the landH776 whichH834 thou knowest notH3808: for ye have kindledH6919 a fireH784 in mine angerH639 whichH834 shall burnH3344 for everH5769. 5ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068: CursedH779 is the manH120 that trusteth in manH120, and maketh fleshH1320 his armH2220, and whoseH834 heartH3820 departeth from the LORDH3068. 6For he shall be like the heath in the desertH6160, and shall notH3808 seeH7200 when goodH2896 cometh; but shall inhabitH3427 the parched places in the wildernessH4057, a saltH4420 landH776 and notH3808 inhabitedH3427. 7BlessedH1288 is the manH1397 that trusteth in the LORDH3068, and whoseH834 hope the LORDH3068 is. 8For he shall be as a treeH6086 plantedH8362 by the watersH4325, and that spreadeth outH7971 his rootsH8328 by the riverH3588, and shall notH3808 fearH3372 when heatH2527 cometh, but his leafH5929 shall be greenH7488; and shall notH3808 be careful in the yearH8141 of droughtH1226, neitherH3808 shall ceaseH4185 from yielding fruitH6529. 9The heartH3820 is deceitful aboveH3820 allH3605 things, and it is desperatelyH605 sickH605: who canH4310 knowH3045 it? 10I the LORDH3068 searchH2713 the heartH3820, I tryH974 the reins, even to giveH5414 everyH376 manH376 accordingH376 to his waysH1870, accordingH376 to the fruitH6529 of his doingsH4611. 11As the partridgeH7124 that gathereth youngH3117 which sheH3808 hath notH3808 broughtH3205 forthH3205, soH6213 is he that getteth richesH6239, and notH3808 by rightH4941; in the midstH2677 of his daysH3117 they shall leaveH5800 him, and at his endH319 he shall be a foolH5036. 12A glorious throneH3678, set on highH4791 from the beginningH7223, is the placeH4725 of our sanctuaryH4720. 13O LORDH3068, the hope of IsraelH3478, allH3605 that forsakeH5800 thee shall be ashamedH954; they that depart from meH3605 shall be writtenH3789 in the earthH776, becauseH3588 they have forsaken the LORDH3068, the fountainH4726 of livingH2416 watersH4325. 14HealH7495 meH3467, O LORDH3068, and I shall be healedH7495; saveH3467 meH3467, and I shall be savedH3467: for thou art my praiseH8416. 15BeholdH2009, they sayH559 unto meH413, WhereH346 is the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068? letH4994 it comeH935 nowH4994. 16As for meH6440, I have notH3808 hastened from beingH1961 a shepherdH7462 afterH310 thee; neitherH3808 have I desiredH183 the woefulH605 dayH3117; thou knowest: that which cameH1961 outH3045 of my lipsH8193 was beforeH6440 thy faceH6440. 17Be notH408 a terrorH4288 unto meH1961: thou art my refugeH4268 in the dayH3117 of evilH7451. 18LetH408 them be ashamedH954 that persecuteH7291 meH5921, but letH408 notH408 meH5921 be ashamedH954; letH408 them be dismayedH2865, but letH408 notH408 meH5921 be dismayedH2865: bringH935 uponH5921 them the dayH3117 of evilH7451, and destroyH7665 them with doubleH4932 destructionH7451. 19ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORDH3068 unto meH413: GoH1980, and standH5975 in the gateH8179 of the childrenH1121 of the peopleH5971, wherebyH834 the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063 comeH935 in, and by the whichH834 they goH1980 outH3318, and in allH3605 the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389; 20and sayH559 unto them, HearH8085 ye the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, ye kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, and allH3605 JudahH3063, and allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, that enterH935 in by theseH428 gatesH8179; 21ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068: TakeH5375 heedH8104 to yourselves, and bearH5375 noH408 burdenH4853 on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, norH408 bringH935 it in by the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389; 22neitherH3808 carryH3318 forthH3318 a burdenH4853 outH3318 of your housesH1004 on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, neitherH3808 doH6213 ye anyH3605 workH4399: but hallow ye the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, as I commandedH6680 your fathersH1; 23But they hearkened notH3808, neitherH3808 inclinedH5186 their earH241, but madeH7185 their neckH6203 stiff, that they might notH3808 hearH8085, and might notH3808 receiveH3947 instructionH4148. 24And it shall comeH935 to passH935, ifH518 ye diligentlyH8085 hearken unto meH413, saith the LORDH3068, to bringH935 in noH1115 burdenH4853 throughH935 the gatesH8179 of this cityH5892 on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, but to hallow the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, to doH6213 noH1115 workH4399 therein; 25then shall there enterH935 in by the gatesH8179 of this cityH5892 kingsH4428 and princesH8269 sittingH3427 uponH5921 the throneH3678 of DavidH1732, ridingH7392 in chariotsH7393 and on horsesH5483, they, and their princesH8269, the menH376 of JudahH3063, and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389: and this cityH5892 shall remainH3427 for everH5769. 26And they shall comeH935 from the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and from the placesH1004 roundH5439 aboutH5439 JerusalemH3389, and from the landH776 of BenjaminH1144, and from the lowlandH8219, and from the mountainsH2022, and from the SouthH5045, bringingH935 burntH5930 offeringsH4503, and sacrificesH2077, and oblations, and frankincenseH3828, and bringingH935 sacrificesH2077 of thanksgivingH8426, unto the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. 27But ifH518 ye will notH3808 hearken unto meH413 to hallow the sabbathH7676 dayH3117, and notH3808 to bearH5375 a burdenH4853 and enterH935 in at the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389 on the sabbathH7676 dayH3117; then will I kindleH3341 a fireH784 in the gatesH8179 thereof, and it shall devourH398 the palacesH759 of JerusalemH3389, and it shall notH3808 be quenchedH3518.
