@ The
word
which came unto
Jeremiah
from the
LORD
, when
Nebuchadnezzar
king
of
Babylon
, and all his
army
, and all the
kingdoms
of the
earth
of his
dominion
, and all the
people
,
fought
against
Jerusalem
, and against all the
cities
thereof,
saying
,
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:2
@ Thus
saith
the
LORD
, the
God
of
Israel
;
Go
and
speak
to
Zedekiah
king
of
Judah
, and
tell
him, Thus
saith
the
LORD
; Behold, I will
give
this
city
into the
hand
of the
king
of
Babylon
, and he shall
burn
it with
fire
:
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:3
@ And thou shalt not escape
out
of his
hand
, but shalt
surely
be
taken
, and
delivered
into his
hand
; and thine
eyes
shall
behold
the
eyes
of the
king
of
Babylon
, and he shall
speak
with thee
mouth
to
mouth
, and thou shalt
go
to
Babylon
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:4
@ Yet
hear
the
word
of the
LORD
, O
Zedekiah
king
of
Judah
; Thus
saith
the
LORD
of thee, Thou shalt not
die
by the
sword
:
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:5
@ But thou shalt
die
in
peace
: and with the
burnings
of thy
fathers
, the
former
kings
which were
before
thee, so shall they
burn
odours for thee; and they will
lament
thee, saying,
Ah
lord
! for I have
pronounced
the
word
,
saith
the
LORD
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:6
@ Then
Jeremiah
the
prophet
spake
all these
words
unto
Zedekiah
king
of
Judah
in
Jerusalem
,
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:7
@ When the
king
of
Babylons
army
fought
against
Jerusalem
, and against all the
cities
of
Judah
that were
left
, against
Lachish
, and against
Azekah
: for these
defenced
cities
remained
of the
cities
of
Judah
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:8
@ This is the
word
that came unto
Jeremiah
from the
LORD
,
after
that the
king
Zedekiah
had
made
a
covenant
with all the
people
which were at
Jerusalem
, to
proclaim
liberty
unto them;
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:9
@ That every
man
should let his
manservant
, and every
man
his
maidservant
, being an
Hebrew
or an
Hebrewess
,
go
free
; that none should
serve
himself of them, to wit, of a
Jew
his
brother
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:10
@ Now when all the
princes
, and all the
people
, which had
entered
into the
covenant
,
heard
that every
one
should let his
manservant
, and every
one
his
maidservant
,
go
free
, that none should
serve
themselves of them any more, then they
obeyed
, and let them
go
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:11
@ But
afterward
they
turned
, and caused the
servants
and the
handmaids
, whom they had let
go
free
, to
return
, and brought them into
subjection
for
servants
and for
handmaids
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:12
@ Therefore the
word
of the
LORD
came to
Jeremiah
from the
LORD
,
saying
,
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:13
@ Thus
saith
the
LORD
, the
God
of
Israel
; I
made
a
covenant
with your
fathers
in the
day
that I brought them
forth
out of the
land
of
Egypt
, out of the
house
of
bondmen
,
saying
,
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:14
@ At the
end
of
seven
years
let ye
go
every
man
his
brother
an
Hebrew
, which hath been
sold
unto thee; and when he hath
served
thee
six
years
, thou shalt let him
go
free
from thee: but your
fathers
hearkened
not unto me, neither
inclined
their
ear
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:15
@ And ye were
now
turned
, and had
done
right
in my
sight
, in
proclaiming
liberty
every
man
to his
neighbour
; and ye had
made
a
covenant
before
me in the
house
which is
called
by my
name
:
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:16
@ But ye
turned
and
polluted
my
name
, and caused every
man
his
servant
, and every
man
his
handmaid
, whom ye had
set
at
liberty
at their
pleasure
, to
return
, and brought them into
subjection
, to be unto you for
servants
and for
handmaids
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:17
@ Therefore thus
saith
the
LORD
; Ye have not
hearkened
unto me, in
proclaiming
liberty
, every
one
to his
brother
, and every
man
to his
neighbour
: behold, I
proclaim
a
liberty
for you,
saith
the
LORD
, to the
sword
, to the
pestilence
, and to the
famine
; and I will
make
you to be
removed
into all the
kingdoms
of the
earth
.
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:18
@ And I will
give
the
men
that have
transgressed
my
covenant
, which have not
performed
the
words
of the
covenant
which they had
made
before
me, when they
cut
the
calf
in
twain
, and
passed
between the
parts
thereof,
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:19
@ The
princes
of
Judah
, and the
princes
of
Jerusalem
, the
eunuchs
, and the
priests
, and all the
people

land
, which
passed
between the
parts
of the
calf
;
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:20
@ I will even
give
them into the
hand
of their
enemies
, and into the
hand
of them that
seek
their
life
: and their dead
bodies
shall be for
meat
unto the
fowls
of the
heaven
, and to the
beasts
of the
earth

strkjv@Jeremiah:34:21
@ And
Zedekiah
king
of
Judah

give
into the
hand

enemies

hand

seek
their
life

up
from you.
strkjv@Jeremiah:34:22
@ Behold, I will
command
,
saith
the
LORD
, and cause them to
return
to this
city
; and they shall
fight
against it, and
take
it, and
burn
it with
fire
: and I will
make
the
cities
of
Judah
a
desolation
without an
inhabitant
