Jeremiah 42:2-10

2and saidH559 unto JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030, LetH4994, weH3588 prayH6419 thee, our supplicationH8467 be accepted beforeH6440 thee, and prayH6419 for usH4994 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, evenH5704 for allH3605 this remnantH7611; for weH3588 are leftH7604 but a fewH4592 of manyH7235, as thine eyesH5869 doH3605 beholdH7200 usH4994:

3that the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 may shew usH5046 the wayH1870 whereinH834 weH834 should walkH1870, and the thingH1697 that weH834 should doH6213.

4Then JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 saidH559 unto them, I have heardH8085 youH834; beholdH2005, I will prayH6419 unto the LORDH3068 your GodH430 accordingH413 to your wordsH1697; and it shall comeH1961 to passH1961 that whatsoeverH3605 thingH1697 the LORDH3068 shall answerH6030 youH834, I will declareH5046 it unto youH834; I will keepH4513 nothingH3808 backH4513 from youH834.

5Then they saidH559 to JeremiahH3414, The LORDH3068 be a trueH571 and faithfulH539 witnessH5707 amongst usH413, ifH518 weH834 doH6213 notH3808 evenH3808 accordingH413 to allH3605 the wordH1697 wherewith the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 shall sendH7971 thee to usH413.

6WhetherH518 it be goodH2896, or whetherH518 it be evilH7451, weH3588 will obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430, to whomH834 weH3588 sendH7971 thee; that it may be wellH3190 with usH413, when weH3588 obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430.

7And it cameH1961 to passH1961 afterH7093 tenH6235 daysH3117, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 unto JeremiahH3414.

8Then calledH7121 he JohananH3110 the sonH1121 of KareahH7143, and allH3605 the captainsH8269 of the forcesH2428 whichH834 were with him, and allH3605 the peopleH5971 from the least evenH5704 to the greatestH1419,

9and saidH559 unto them, ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, unto whomH834 ye sentH7971 meH413 to presentH5307 your supplicationH8467 beforeH6440 him:

10IfH518 ye will stillH7725 abideH3427 in this landH776, then will I buildH1129 youH834, and notH3808 pullH2040 youH834 downH3427, and I will plantH5193 youH834, and notH3808 pluckH5428 youH834 upH1129: for I repentH7725 meH413 of the evilH7451 that I have doneH6213 unto youH834.
