Jeremiah:33-34
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Moreover the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah the second time ,
while he was yet shut up in the court of the prison ,
saying ,
*
Thus saith the LORD the maker thereof ,
the LORD that formed it ,
to establish it ;
the LORD is his name ;
*
Call unto me ,
and I will answer thee ,
and shew thee great and mighty things ,
which thou knowest not .
*
For thus saith the LORD ,
the God of Israel Yisra #
el #,
concerning the houses of this city ,
and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah ,
which are thrown down by the mounts ,
and by the sword ;
*
They come to fight with the Chaldeans ,
but it is to fill them with the dead bodies of men ,
whom I have slain in mine anger and in my fury ,
and for all whose wickedness I have hid my face from this city .
*
Behold ,
I will bring it health and cure ,
and I will cure them ,
and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth .
*
And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return ,
and will build them ,
as at the first ri #
shown #.
*
And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity ,
whereby they have sinned against me ;
and I will pardon all their iniquities ,
whereby they have sinned ,
and whereby they have transgressed against me .
*
And it shall be to me a name of joy ,
a praise and an honour before all the nations of the earth ,
which shall hear all the good that I do unto them :
and they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and for all the prosperity that I procure unto it .
*
Thus saith the LORD ;
Again there shall be heard in this place ,
which ye say shall be desolate without man and without beast ,
even in the cities of Judah ,
and in the streets of Jerusalem ,
that are desolate ,
without man ,
and without inhabitant ,
and without beast ,
*
The voice of joy ,
and the voice of gladness ,
the voice of the bridegroom ,
and the voice of the bride ,
the voice of them that shall say ,
Praise the LORD of hosts :
for the LORD is good ;
for his mercy endureth for ever :
and of them that shall bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the LORD .
For I will cause to return the captivity of the land ,
as at the first ri #
shown #,
saith the LORD .
*
Thus saith the LORD of hosts ;
Again in this place ,
which is desolate without man and without beast ,
and in all the cities thereof ,
shall be an habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down .
*
In the cities of the mountains ,
in the cities of the vale ,
and in the cities of the south ,
and in the land of Benjamin ,
and in the places about Jerusalem ,
and in the cities of Judah ,
shall the flocks pass again under the hands of him that telleth them ,
saith the LORD .
*
Behold ,
the days come ,
saith the LORD ,
that I will perform that good thing which I have promised unto the house of Israel and to the house of Judah .
*
In those days ,
and at that time ,
will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David ;
and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land .
*
In those days shall Judah be saved ,
and Jerusalem shall dwell safely :
and this is the name wherewith she shall be called ,
The LORD our righteousness Y @
hovah .
*
For thus saith the LORD ;
David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel Yisra #
el #;
*
Neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings ,
and to kindle meat offerings ,
and to do sacrifice continually .
*
And the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah ,
saying ,
*
Thus saith the LORD ;
If ye can break my covenant of the day ,
and my covenant of the night ,
and that there should not be day and night in their season ;
*
Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant ,
that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne ;
and with the Levites the priests ,
my ministers .
*
As the host of heaven cannot be numbered ,
neither the sand of the sea measured :
so will I multiply the seed of David my servant ,
and the Levites that minister unto me .
*
Moreover the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah ,
saying ,
*
Considerest thou not what this people have spoken ,
saying ,
The two families which the LORD hath chosen ,
he hath even cast them off ?
thus they have despised my people ,
that they should be no more a nation before them .
*
Thus saith the LORD ;
If my covenant be not with day and night ,
and if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth ;
*
Then will I cast away the seed of Jacob Ya #
aqob #,
and David my servant ,
so that I will not take any of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham ,
Isaac ,
and Jacob Ya #
aqob #:
for I will cause their captivity to return (
8675 ),
and have mercy on them .
*
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 yad #,
and all the people ,
fought against Jerusalem ,
and against all the cities thereof ,
saying ,
*
Thus saith the LORD ,
the God of Israel Yisra #
el #;
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 :
*
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 .
*
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 :
*
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 .
*
Then Jeremiah the prophet spake all these words unto Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem ,
*
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 .
*
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 ;
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
But afterward they turned ,
and caused the servants and the handmaids ,
whom they had let go free ,
to return ,
and brought them into subjection (
8675 )
for servants and for handmaids .
*
Therefore the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah from the LORD ,
saying ,
*
Thus saith the LORD ,
the God of Israel Yisra #
el #;
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 ,
*
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 .
*
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 :
*
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 .
*
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 ra #
ab #;
and I will make you to be removed za #
into all the kingdoms of the earth .
*
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 ,
*
The princes of Judah ,
and the princes of Jerusalem ,
the eunuchs ,
and the priests ,
and all the people of the land ,
which passed between the parts of the calf ;
*
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 .
*
And Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes will I give into the hand of their enemies ,
and into the hand of them that seek their life ,
and into the hand of the king of Babylons army ,
which are gone up from you .
*
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 .
