Jeremiah 32

1The wordH1697 that came to JeremiahH3414 from the LORDH3068 in the tenthH6224 yearH8141 of ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, which was the eighteenthH8083H6240H8141 yearH8141 of NebuchadnezzarH5019. 2For then the kingH4428 of Babylon’sH894 armyH2428 besiegedH6696 JerusalemH3389: and JeremiahH3414 the prophetH5030 was shut upH3607 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307, which was in the kingH4428 of Judah’sH3063 houseH1004. 3For ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 had shut him upH3607, sayingH559, Why dost thou prophesyH5012, and sayH559, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Behold, I will giveH5414 this cityH5892 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and he shall takeH3920 it; 4And ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 shall not escapeH4422 from the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778, but shall surelyH5414 be deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and shall speakH1696 with him mouthH6310 to mouthH6310, and his eyesH5869 shall beholdH7200 his eyesH5869; 5And he shall leadH3212 ZedekiahH6667 to BabylonH894, and there shall he be until I visitH6485 him, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: though ye fightH3898 with the ChaldeansH3778, ye shall not prosperH6743. 6And JeremiahH3414 saidH559, The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came to me, sayingH559, 7Behold, HanameelH2601 the sonH1121 of ShallumH7967 thy uncleH1730 shall comeH935 to thee, sayingH559, BuyH7069 for thee my fieldH7704 that is in AnathothH6068: for the rightH4941 of redemptionH1353 is thine to buyH7069 it . 8So HanameelH2601 my uncle’sH1730 sonH1121 cameH935 to me in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307 according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, and saidH559 to me, BuyH7069 my fieldH7704, I pray thee, that is in AnathothH6068, which is in the countryH776 of BenjaminH1144: for the rightH4941 of inheritanceH3425 is thine, and the redemptionH1353 is thine; buyH7069 it for thyself. Then I knewH3045 that this was the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068. 9And I boughtH7069 the fieldH7704 of HanameelH2601 my uncle’sH1730 sonH1121, that was in AnathothH6068, and weighedH8254 him the moneyH3701, even seventeenH7651H6235 shekelsH8255 of silverH3701.1 10And I signedH3789 the deedH5612, and sealedH2856 it, and tookH5749 witnessesH5707, and weighedH8254 him the moneyH3701 in the balancesH3976.2 11So I tookH3947 the deedH5612 of the purchaseH4736, both that which was sealedH2856 according to the lawH4687 and customH2706, and that which was openH1540: 12And I gaveH5414 the deedH5612 of the purchaseH4736 to BaruchH1263 the sonH1121 of NeriahH5374, the sonH1121 of MaaseiahH4271, in the sightH5869 of HanameelH2601 my uncle’sH1730 son, and in the presenceH5869 of the witnessesH5707 that signedH3789 the deedH5612 of the purchaseH4736, beforeH5869 all the JewsH3064 that satH3427 in the courtH2691 of the prisonH4307. 13And I chargedH6680 BaruchH1263 beforeH5869 them, sayingH559, 14Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; TakeH3947 these deedsH5612, this deedH5612 of the purchaseH4736, both that which is sealedH2856, and this deedH5612 which is openH1540; and putH5414 them in an earthenH2789 vesselH3627, that they may continueH5975 manyH7227 daysH3117. 15For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; HousesH1004 and fieldsH7704 and vineyardsH3754 shall be possessed againH7069 in this landH776.

16Now whenH310 I had deliveredH5414 the deedH5612 of the purchaseH4736 to BaruchH1263 the sonH1121 of NeriahH5374, I prayedH6419 to the LORDH3068, sayingH559, 17AhH162 LordH136 GODH3069! behold, thou hast madeH6213 the heavenH8064 and the earthH776 by thy greatH1419 powerH3581 and outstretchedH5186 armH2220, and there is nothingH1697 too hardH6381 for thee:3 18Thou showestH6213 lovingkindnessH2617 to thousandsH505, and recompensestH7999 the iniquityH5771 of the fathersH1 into the bosomH2436 of their childrenH1121 afterH310 them: the GreatH1419, the MightyH1368 GodH410, the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, is his nameH8034, 19GreatH1419 in counselH6098, and mightyH7227 in workH5950: for thy eyesH5869 are openH6491 upon all the waysH1870 of the sonsH1121 of menH120: to giveH5414 every oneH376 according to his waysH1870, and according to the fruitH6529 of his doingsH4611:4 20Who hast setH7760 signsH226 and wondersH4159 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, even to this dayH3117, and in IsraelH3478, and among other menH120; and hast madeH6213 thee a nameH8034, as at this dayH3117; 21And hast brought forthH3318 thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714 with signsH226, and with wondersH4159, and with a strongH2389 handH3027, and with an outstretchedH5186 armH248, and with greatH1419 terrorH4172; 22And hast givenH5414 them this landH776, which thou didst swearH7650 to their fathersH1 to giveH5414 them, a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706; 23And they came inH935, and possessedH3423 it; but they obeyedH8085 not thy voiceH6963, neither walkedH1980 in thy lawH8451; they have doneH6213 nothing of all that thou didst commandH6680 them to doH6213: therefore thou hast caused all this evilH7451 to comeH7122 upon them: 24Behold the mountsH5550, they are comeH935 to the cityH5892 to takeH3920 it; and the cityH5892 is givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778, that fightH3898 against it, becauseH6440 of the swordH2719, and of the famineH7458, and of the pestilenceH1698: and what thou hast spokenH1696 is come to pass; and, behold, thou seestH7200 it .5 25And thou hast saidH559 to me, O LordH136 GODH3069, BuyH7069 thee the fieldH7704 for moneyH3701, and takeH5749 witnessesH5707; for the cityH5892 is givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778.6

26Then came the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 to JeremiahH3414, sayingH559, 27Behold, I am the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of all fleshH1320: is there any thingH1697 too hardH6381 for me? 28Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Behold, I will giveH5414 this cityH5892 into the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778, and into the handH3027 of NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and he shall takeH3920 it: 29And the ChaldeansH3778, that fightH3898 against this cityH5892, shall comeH935 and setH3341 fireH784 on this cityH5892, and burnH8313 it with the housesH1004, upon whose roofsH1406 they have offered incenseH6999 to BaalH1168, and poured outH5258 drink offeringsH5262 to otherH312 godsH430, to provoke me to angerH3707. 30For the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 and the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 have doneH6213 evilH7451 only beforeH5869 me from their youthH5271: for the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 have only provoked me to angerH3707 with the workH4639 of their handsH3027, saithH5002 the LORDH3068. 31For this cityH5892 hath been to me as a provocation of my angerH639 and of my furyH2534 from the dayH3117 that they builtH1129 it even to this dayH3117; that I should removeH5493 it from before my faceH6440,7 32Because of all the evilH7451 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 and of the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063, which they have doneH6213 to provoke me to angerH3707, they, their kingsH4428, their princesH8269, their priestsH3548, and their prophetsH5030, and the menH376 of JudahH3063, and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389. 33And they have turnedH6437 to me the backH6203, and not the faceH6440: though I taughtH3925 them, rising earlyH7925 and teachingH3925 them, yet they have not hearkenedH8085 to receiveH3947 instructionH4148.8 34But they setH7760 their abominationsH8251 in the houseH1004, which is calledH7121 by my nameH8034, to defileH2930 it. 35And they builtH1129 the high placesH1116 of BaalH1168, which are in the valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, to cause their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 to passH5674 through the fire to MolechH4432; which I commandedH6680 them not, neither cameH5927 it into my mindH3820, that they should doH6213 this abominationH8441, to cause JudahH3063 to sinH2398. 36And now therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, concerning this cityH5892, of which ye sayH559, It shall be deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 by the swordH2719, and by the famineH7458, and by the pestilenceH1698; 37Behold, I will gather them outH6908 of all countriesH776, where I have drivenH5080 them in my angerH639, and in my furyH2534, and in greatH1419 wrathH7110; and I will bring them againH7725 to this placeH4725, and I will cause them to dwellH3427 in safetyH983: 38And they shall be my peopleH5971, and I will be their GodH430: 39And I will giveH5414 them oneH259 heartH3820, and oneH259 wayH1870, that they may fearH3372 me for everH3117, for the goodH2896 of them, and of their childrenH1121 afterH310 them:9 40And I will makeH3772 an everlastingH5769 covenantH1285 with them, that I will not turn awayH7725 from themH310, to do them goodH3190; but I will putH5414 my fearH3374 in their heartsH3824, that they shall not departH5493 from me.10 41Yea, I will rejoiceH7797 over them to do them goodH2895, and I will plantH5193 them in this landH776 assuredlyH571 with my whole heartH3820 and with my whole soulH5315.11 42For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; As I have broughtH935 all this greatH1419 evilH7451 upon this peopleH5971, so will I bringH935 upon them all the goodH2896 that I have promisedH1696 them. 43And fieldsH7704 shall be boughtH7069 in this landH776, of which ye sayH559, It is desolateH8077 without manH120 or beastH929; it is givenH5414 into the handH3027 of the ChaldeansH3778. 44Men shall buyH7069 fieldsH7704 for moneyH3701, and signH3789 deedsH5612, and sealH2856 them, and takeH5749 witnessesH5707 in the landH776 of BenjaminH1144, and in the places aboutH5439 JerusalemH3389, and in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, and in the citiesH5892 of the mountainsH2022, and in the citiesH5892 of the valleyH8219, and in the citiesH5892 of the southH5045: for I will cause their captivesH7622 to returnH7725, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
