The word 1697 that the LORD 3068 spake 1696-14 against Babylon 894 [and] against the land 776 of the Chaldeans 3778 by 3027 Jeremiah 3414 the prophet. 5030 |
| 2 |
Declare 5046-54 ye among the nations, 1471 and publish, 8085-54 and set up 5375-3 a standard; 5251 publish, 8085-54 [and] conceal 3582-17 not: say, 559-3 Babylon 894 is taken, 3920-8 Bel 1078 is confounded, 3001-52 Merodach 4781 is broken in pieces; 2865-1 her idols 6091 are confounded, 3001-52 her images 1544 are broken in pieces. 2865-1 |
| 3 |
For out of the north 6828 there cometh up 5927-1 a nation 1471 against her, which shall make 7896-4 her land 776 desolate, 8047 and none shall dwell 3427-6 therein: they shall remove, 5110-1 they shall depart, 1980-1 both man 120 and beast. 929 |
| 4 |
In those days, 3117 and in that time, 6256 saith 5002-7 the LORD, 3068 the children 1121 of Israel 3478 shall come, 935-4 they and the children 1121 of Judah 3063 together, 3162 going 1980-2 and weeping: 1058-2 they shall go, 3212-4 and seek 1245-17 the LORD 3068 their God. 430 |
| 5 |
They shall ask 7592-4 the way 1870 to Zion 6726 with their faces 6440 thitherward, 2008 [saying], Come, 935-3 and let us join 3867-8 ourselves to the LORD 3068 in a perpetual 5769 covenant 1285 [that] shall not be forgotten. 7911-11 |
| 6 |
My people 5971 hath been lost 6-6 sheep: 6629 their shepherds 7462-6 have caused them to go astray, 8582-52 they have turned them away 7725-31|7726-k [on] the mountains: 2022 they have gone 1980-1 from mountain 2022 to hill, 1389 they have forgotten 7911-1 their restingplace. 7258 |
| 7 |
All that found 4672-6 them have devoured 398-1 them: and their adversaries 6862 said, 559-1 We offend 816-4 not, because they have sinned 2398-1 against the LORD, 3068 the habitation 5116 of justice, 6664 even the LORD, 3068 the hope 4723 of their fathers. 1 |
| 8 |
Remove 5110-3 out of the midst 8432 of Babylon, 894 and go forth 3318-3|3318-4-k out of the land 776 of the Chaldeans, 3778 and be as the he goats 6260 before 6440 the flocks. 6629 |
| 9 |
For, lo, I will raise 5782-56 and cause to come up 5927-56 against Babylon 894 an assembly 6951 of great 1419 nations 1471 from the north 6828 country: 776 and they shall set themselves in array 6186-1 against her; from thence she shall be taken: 3920-11 their arrows 2671 [shall be] as of a mighty 1368 expert 7919-56|7921-56-q man; none shall return 7725-4 in vain. 7387 |
| 10 |
And Chaldea 3778 shall be a spoil: 7998 all that spoil 7997-6 her shall be satisfied, 7646-4 saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068 |
| 11 |
Because ye were glad, 8055-4 because ye rejoiced, 5937-4 O ye destroyers 8154-6 of mine heritage, 5159 because ye are grown fat 6335-4 as the heifer 5697 at grass, 1877|1758-5 and bellow 6670-4 as bulls; 47 |
| 12 |
Your mother 517 shall be sore 3966 confounded; 954-1 she that bare 3205-6 you shall be ashamed: 2659-1 behold, the hindermost 319 of the nations 1471 [shall be] a wilderness, 4057 a dry 6723 land, and a desert. 6160 |
| 13 |
Because of the wrath 7110 of the LORD 3068 it shall not be inhabited, 3427-4 but it shall be wholly desolate: 8077 every one that goeth 5674-6 by Babylon 894 shall be astonished, 8074-4 and hiss 8319-4 at all her plagues. 4347 |
| 14 |
Put yourselves in array 6186-3 against Babylon 894 round about: 5439 all ye that bend 1869-6 the bow, 7198 shoot 3034-3 at her, spare 2550-4 no arrows: 2671 for she hath sinned 2398-1 against the LORD. 3068 |
| 15 |
Shout 7321-54 against her round about: 5439 she hath given 5414-1 her hand: 3027 her foundations 803 are fallen, 5307-1 her walls 2346 are thrown down: 2040-8 for it [is] the vengeance 5360 of the LORD: 3068 take vengeance 5358-10 upon her; as she hath done, 6213-1 do 6213-3 unto her. |
| 16 |
Cut off 3772-3 the sower 2232-6 from Babylon, 894 and him that handleth 8610-6 the sickle 4038 in the time 6256 of harvest: 7105 for fear 6440 of the oppressing 3238-6 sword 2719 they shall turn 6437-4 every one 376 to his people, 5971 and they shall flee 5127-4 every one 376 to his own land. 776 |
| 17 |
Israel 3478 [is] a scattered 6340-5 sheep; 7716 the lions 738 have driven [him] away: 5080-52 first 7223 the king 4428 of Assyria 804 hath devoured 398-1 him; and last 314 this Nebuchadrezzar 5019 king 4428 of Babylon 894 hath broken his bones. 6105-14 |
| 18 |
Therefore thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 of hosts, 6635 the God 430 of Israel; 3478 Behold, I will punish 6485-6 the king 4428 of Babylon 894 and his land, 776 as I have punished 6485-1 the king 4428 of Assyria. 804 |
| 19 |
And I will bring Israel 3478 again 7725-31 to his habitation, 5116 and he shall feed 7462-1 on Carmel 3760 and Bashan, 1316 and his soul 5315 shall be satisfied 7646-4 upon mount 2022 Ephraim 669 and Gilead. 1568 |
| 20 |
In those days, 3117 and in that time, 6256 saith 5002-7 the LORD, 3068 the iniquity 5771 of Israel 3478 shall be sought for, 1245-29 and [there shall be] none; and the sins 2403 of Judah, 3063 and they shall not be found: 4672-11 for I will pardon 5545-4 them whom I reserve. 7604-55 |
| 21 |
Go up 5927-3 against the land 776 of Merathaim, 4850 [even] against it, and against the inhabitants 3427-6 of Pekod: 6489 waste 2717-3 and utterly destroy 2763-53 after 310 them, saith 5002-7 the LORD, 3068 and do 6213-3 according to all that I have commanded 6680-14 thee. |
| 22 |
A sound 6963 of battle 4421 [is] in the land, 776 and of great 1419 destruction. 7667 |
| 23 |
How is the hammer 6360 of the whole earth 776 cut asunder 1438-8 and broken! 7665-11 how is Babylon 894 become a desolation 8047 among the nations! 1471 |
| 24 |
I have laid a snare 3369-1 for thee, and thou art also taken, 3920-8 O Babylon, 894 and thou wast not aware: 3045-1 thou art found, 4672-8 and also caught, 8610-8 because thou hast striven 1624-98 against the LORD. 3068 |
| 25 |
The LORD 3068 hath opened 6605-1 his armoury, 214 and hath brought forth 3318-55 the weapons 3627 of his indignation: 2195 for this [is] the work 4399 of the Lord 136 GOD 3069 of hosts 6635 in the land 776 of the Chaldeans. 3778 |
| 26 |
Come 935-3 against her from the utmost border, 7093 open 6605-3 her storehouses: 3965 cast her up 5549-3 as heaps, 6194 and destroy her utterly: 2763-54 let nothing of her be left. 7611 |
| 27 |
Slay 2717-3 all her bullocks; 6499 let them go down 3381-4 to the slaughter: 2874 woe 1945 unto them! for their day 3117 is come, 935-6 the time 6256 of their visitation. 6486 |
| 28 |
The voice 6963 of them that flee 5127-5 and escape out 6405 of the land 776 of Babylon, 894 to declare 5046-53 in Zion 6726 the vengeance 5360 of the LORD 3068 our God, 430 the vengeance 5360 of his temple. 1964 |
| 29 |
Call together 8085-54 the archers 7228 against Babylon: 894 all ye that bend 1869-6 the bow, 7198 camp 2583-3 against it round about; 5439 let none thereof escape: 6413 recompense 7999-16 her according to her work; 6467 according to all that she hath done, 6213-1 do 6213-3 unto her: for she hath been proud 2102-1 against the LORD, 3068 against the Holy One 6918 of Israel. 3478 |
| 30 |
Therefore shall her young men 970 fall 5307-4 in the streets, 7339 and all her men 582 of war 4421 shall be cut off 1826-11 in that day, 3117 saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068 |
| 31 |
Behold, I [am] against thee, [O thou] most proud, 2087 saith 5002-7 the Lord 136 GOD 3069 of hosts: 6635 for thy day 3117 is come, 935-6 the time 6256 [that] I will visit 6485-1 thee. |
| 32 |
And the most proud 2087 shall stumble 3782-1 and fall, 5307-1 and none shall raise him up: 6965-56 and I will kindle 3341-52 a fire 784 in his cities, 5892 and it shall devour 398-1 all round about 5439 him. |
| 33 |
Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 of hosts; 6635 The children 1121 of Israel 3478 and the children 1121 of Judah 3063 [were] oppressed 6231-7 together: 3162 and all that took them captives 7617-6 held 2388-52 them fast; they refused 3985-14 to let them go. 7971-15 |
| 34 |
Their Redeemer 1350-6 [is] strong; 2389 the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635 [is] his name: 8034 he shall throughly 7378-2 plead 7378-4 their cause, 7379 that he may give rest 7280-52 to the land, 776 and disquiet 7264-52 the inhabitants 3427-6 of Babylon. 894 |
| 35 |
A sword 2719 [is] upon the Chaldeans, 3778 saith 5002-7 the LORD, 3068 and upon the inhabitants 3427-6 of Babylon, 894 and upon her princes, 8269 and upon her wise 2450 [men]. |
| 36 |
A sword 2719 [is] upon the liars; 907 and they shall dote: 2973-8 a sword 2719 [is] upon her mighty men; 1368 and they shall be dismayed. 2865-1 |
| 37 |
A sword 2719 [is] upon their horses, 5483 and upon their chariots, 7393 and upon all the mingled people 6153 that [are] in the midst 8432 of her; and they shall become as women: 802 a sword 2719 [is] upon her treasures; 214 and they shall be robbed. 962-27 |
| 38 |
A drought 2721 [is] upon her waters; 4325 and they shall be dried up: 3001-1 for it [is] the land 776 of graven images, 6456 and they are mad 1984-108 upon [their] idols. 367 |
| 39 |
Therefore the wild beasts of the desert 6728 with the wild beasts of the islands 338|339 shall dwell 3427-4 [there], and the owls 1323 3284 shall dwell 3427-1 therein: and it shall be no more inhabited 3427-4 for ever; 5331 neither shall it be dwelt 7931-4 in from generation 1755 to generation. 1755 |
| 40 |
As God 430 overthrew 4114 Sodom 5467 and Gomorrah 6017 and the neighbour 7934 [cities] thereof, saith 5002-7 the LORD; 3068 [so] shall no man 376 abide 3427-4 there, neither shall any son 1121 of man 120 dwell 1481-4 therein. |
| 41 |
Behold, a people 5971 shall come 935-6 from the north, 6828 and a great 1419 nation, 1471 and many 7227 kings 4428 shall be raised up 5782-11 from the coasts 3411 of the earth. 776 |
| 42 |
They shall hold 2388-55 the bow 7198 and the lance: 3591 they [are] cruel, 394 and will not shew mercy: 7355-17 their voice 6963 shall roar 1993-4 like the sea, 3220 and they shall ride 7392-4 upon horses, 5483 [every one] put in array, 6186-7 like a man 376 to the battle, 4421 against thee, O daughter 1323 of Babylon. 894 |
| 43 |
The king 4428 of Babylon 894 hath heard 8085-1 the report 8088 of them, and his hands 3027 waxed feeble: 7503-1 anguish 6869 took hold 2388-52 of him, [and] pangs 2427 as of a woman in travail. 3205-6 |
| 44 |
Behold, he shall come up 5927-4 like a lion 738 from the swelling 1347 of Jordan 3383 unto the habitation 5116 of the strong: 386 but I will make them suddenly 7280-55 run away 7323-55|7323-4-k from her: and who [is] a chosen 977-7 [man, that] I may appoint 6485-4 over her? for who [is] like me? and who will appoint me the time? 3259-55 and who [is] that shepherd 7462-6 that will stand 5975-4 before 6440 me? |
| 45 |
Therefore hear 8085-3 ye the counsel 6098 of the LORD, 3068 that he hath taken 3289-1 against Babylon; 894 and his purposes, 4284 that he hath purposed 2803-1 against the land 776 of the Chaldeans: 3778 Surely the least 6810 of the flock 6629 shall draw them out: 5498-4 surely he shall make [their] habitation 5116 desolate 8074-55 with them. |
| 46 |
At the noise 6963 of the taking 8610-8 of Babylon 894 the earth 776 is moved, 7493-11 and the cry 2201 is heard 8085-8 among the nations. 1471 |
