ylt @Jeremiah:33:1 @And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah a second time -- and he [is ] yet detained in the court of the prison -- saying : ylt @Jeremiah:33:2 @Thus said Jehovah its maker , Jehovah its former , at establishing it , Jehovah [is ] His name : ylt @Jeremiah:33:3 @Call unto Me , and I do answer thee , yea , I declare to thee great and fenced things -- thou hast not known them . ylt @Jeremiah:33:4 @For thus said Jehovah , God of Israel , concerning the houses of this city , and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah , that are broken down for the mounts , and for the tool ; ylt @Jeremiah:33:5 @they are coming in to fight with the Chaldeans , and to fill them with the carcases of men , whom I have smitten in Mine anger , and in My fury , and [for ] whom I have hidden My face from this city , because of all their evil : ylt @Jeremiah:33:6 @Lo , I am increasing to it health and cure , And have healed them , and revealed to them The abundance of peace and truth . ylt @Jeremiah:33:7 @And I have turned back the captivity of Judah , And the captivity of Israel , And I have built them as at the first , ylt @Jeremiah:33:8 @And cleansed them from all their iniquity , That they have sinned against Me , And I have pardoned all their iniquities , That they have sinned against Me , And that they transgressed against Me . ylt @Jeremiah:33:9 @And it hath been to Me for a name of joy , For praise , and for beauty , to all nations of the earth , Who hear of all the good that I am doing them , And they have feared , And they have trembled for all the good , And for all the peace , that I am doing to it . ylt @Jeremiah:33:10 @Thus said Jehovah : Again heard in this place of which ye are saying , Waste it [is ], without man and without beast , In cities of Judah , and in streets of Jerusalem , That are desolated , without man , And without inhabitant , and without beast , ylt @Jeremiah:33:11 @Is a voice of joy and a voice of gladness , Voice of bridegroom , and voice of bride , The voice of those saying , Thank Jehovah of Hosts , for Jehovah [is ] good , For His kindness [is ] to the age , Who are bringing in thanksgiving to the house of Jehovah , For I turn back the captivity of the land , As at the first , said Jehovah . ylt @Jeremiah:33:12 @Thus said Jehovah of Hosts : Again there is in this place -- that is waste , Without man and beast , And in all its cities -- a habitation of shepherds , Causing the flock to lie down . ylt @Jeremiah:33:13 @In the cities of the hill-country , In the cities of the low country , And in the cities of the south , And in the land of Benjamin , And in the suburbs of Jerusalem , And in the cities of Judah , Again doth the flock pass by under the hands of the numberer , said Jehovah . ylt @Jeremiah:33:14 @Lo , days are coming , an affirmation of Jehovah , And I have established the good word That I spake unto the house of Israel , And concerning the house of Judah . ylt @Jeremiah:33:15 @In those days , and at that time , I cause to shoot up to David a shoot of righteousness , And he hath done judgment and righteousness in the earth . ylt @Jeremiah:33:16 @In those days is Judah saved , And Jerusalem doth dwell confidently , And this [is ] he whom Jehovah proclaimeth to her : 'Our Righteousness .' ylt @Jeremiah:33:17 @For thus said Jehovah : 'Not cut off to David is one sitting on the throne of the house of Israel , ylt @Jeremiah:33:18 @And to the priests -- the Levites , Not cut off from before Me is one , Causing a burnt-offering to ascend , And perfuming a present , and making sacrifice -- all the days .' ylt @Jeremiah:33:19 @And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah , saying , ylt @Jeremiah:33:20 @'Thus said Jehovah : If ye do break My covenant of the day , And My covenant of the night , So that they are not daily and nightly in their season , ylt @Jeremiah:33:21 @Also My covenant is broken with David My servant , So that he hath not a son reigning on his throne , And with the Levites the priests , My ministers . ylt @Jeremiah:33:22 @As the host of the heavens is not numbered , Nor the sand of the sea measured , So I multiply the seed of David My servant , And the Levites My ministers .' ylt @Jeremiah:33:23 @And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah , saying : ylt @Jeremiah:33:24 @'Hast thou not considered what this people have spoken , saying : The two families on which Jehovah fixed , He doth reject them , And my people they despise -- So that they are no more a people before them ! ylt @Jeremiah:33:25 @Thus said Jehovah : If My covenant [is ] not daily and nightly , The statutes of heaven and earth I have not appointed -- ylt @Jeremiah:33:26 @Also the seed of Jacob , and David My servant , I reject , Against taking from his seed rulers For the seed of Abraham , Isaac , and Jacob , For I turn back [to ] their captivity , and have pitied them .' ylt @Jeremiah:34:1 @The word that hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah -- and Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon , and all his force , and all kingdoms of the land of the dominion of his hand , and all the peoples are fighting against Jerusalem , and against all its cities -- saying : ylt @Jeremiah:34:2 @'Thus said Jehovah , God of Israel : Go , and thou hast spoken unto Zedekiah king of Judah , and hast said unto him , Thus said Jehovah : Lo , I am giving this city into the hand of the king of Babylon , and he hath burned it with fire , ylt @Jeremiah:34:3 @and thou , thou dost not escape out of his hand , for thou art certainly caught , and into his hand thou art given , and thine eyes see the eyes of the king of Babylon , and his mouth with thy mouth speaketh , and Babylon thou enterest . ylt @Jeremiah:34:4 @'Only , hear a word of Jehovah , O Zedekiah king of Judah , Thus said Jehovah unto thee : Thou dost not die by sword , ylt @Jeremiah:34:5 @in peace thou diest , and with the burnings of thy fathers , the former kings who have been before thee , so they make a burning for thee ; and Ah , lord , they lament for thee , for the word I have spoken -- an affirmation of Jehovah .' ylt @Jeremiah:34:6 @And Jeremiah the prophet speaketh unto Zedekiah king of Judah all these words in Jerusalem , ylt @Jeremiah:34:7 @and the forces of the king of Babylon are fighting against Jerusalem , and against all the cities of Judah that are left -- against Lachish , and against Azekah , for these have been left among the cities of Judah , cities of fortresses . ylt @Jeremiah:34:8 @The word that hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah , after the making by the king Zedekiah of a covenant with all the people who [are ] in Jerusalem , to proclaim to them liberty , ylt @Jeremiah:34:9 @to send out each his man-servant , and each his maid-servant -- the Hebrew and the Hebrewess -- free , so as not to lay service on them , any on a Jew his brother ; ylt @Jeremiah:34:10 @and hearken do all the heads , and all the people who have come in to the covenant to send forth each his man-servant and each his maid-servant free , so as not to lay service on them any more , yea , they hearken , and send them away ; ylt @Jeremiah:34:11 @and they turn afterwards , and cause the men-servants and the maid-servants to return , whom they had sent forth free , and they subdue them for men-servants and for maid-servants . ylt @Jeremiah:34:12 @And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah from Jehovah , saying : ylt @Jeremiah:34:13 @'Thus said Jehovah , God of Israel , I -- I made a covenant with your fathers in the day of My bringing them forth from the land of Egypt , from a house of servants , saying , ylt @Jeremiah:34:14 @At the end of seven years ye do send forth each his brother , the Hebrew , who is sold to thee , and hath served thee six years , yea , thou hast sent him forth free from thee : and your fathers hearkened not unto Me , nor inclined their ear . ylt @Jeremiah:34:15 @'And ye turn back , ye to-day , and ye do that which is right in Mine eyes , to proclaim liberty each to his neighbour , and ye make a covenant before Me in the house over which My name is called . ylt @Jeremiah:34:16 @And -- ye turn back , and pollute My name , and ye cause each his man-servant and each his maid-servant , whom he had sent forth free , (at their pleasure ,) to return , and ye subdue them to be to you for men-servants and for maid-servants . ylt @Jeremiah:34:17 @'Therefore , thus said Jehovah : Ye have not hearkened unto Me to proclaim freedom , each to his brother , and each to his neighbour ; lo , I am proclaiming to you liberty -- an affirmation of Jehovah -- unto the sword , unto the pestilence , and unto the famine , and I have given you for a trembling to all kingdoms of the earth . ylt @Jeremiah:34:18 @'And I have given the men who are transgressing My covenant , who have not established the words of the covenant that they have made before Me , by the calf , that they have cut in two , and pass through between its pieces -- ylt @Jeremiah:34:19 @heads of Judah , and heads of Jerusalem , the officers , and the priests , and all the people of the land those passing through between the pieces of the calf -- ylt @Jeremiah:34:20 @yea , I have given them into the hand of their enemies , and into the hand of those seeking their soul , and their carcase hath been for food to the fowl of the heavens , and to the beast of the earth . ylt @Jeremiah:34:21 @'And Zedekiah king of Judah , and his heads , I give into the hand of their enemies , and into the hand of those seeking their soul , and into the hand of the forces of the king of Babylon , that are going up from off you . ylt @Jeremiah:34:22 @Lo , I am commanding -- an affirmation of Jehovah -- and have brought them back unto this city , and they have fought against it , and captured it , and burned it with fire , and the cities of Judah I do make a desolation -- without inhabitant .' ylt @Jeremiah:35:1 @The word that hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah , in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah , saying : ylt @Jeremiah:35:2 @'Go unto the house of the Rechabites , and thou hast spoken with them , and brought them into the house of Jehovah , unto one of the chambers , and caused them to drink wine .' ylt @Jeremiah:35:3 @And I take Jaazaniah son of Jeremiah , son of Habazziniah , and his brethren , and all his sons , and all the house of the Rechabites , ylt @Jeremiah:35:4 @and bring them into the house of Jehovah , unto the chamber of the sons of Hanan son of Igdaliah , a man of God , that [is ] near to the chamber of the princes , that [is ] above the chamber of Maaseiah son of Shallum , keeper of the threshold ; ylt @Jeremiah:35:5 @and I put before the sons of the house of the Rechabites goblets full of wine , and cups , and I say unto them , Drink ye wine . ylt @Jeremiah:35:6 @And they say , 'We do not drink wine : for Jonadab son of Rechab , our father , charged us , saying , Ye do not drink wine , ye and your sons -- unto the age ; ylt @Jeremiah:35:7 @and a house ye do not build , and seed ye do not sow , and a vineyard ye do not plant , nor have ye any ; for in tents do ye dwell all your days , that ye may live many days on the face of the ground whither ye are sojourning . ylt @Jeremiah:35:8 @'And we hearken to the voice of Jonadab son of Rechab , our father , to all that he commanded us , not to drink wine all our days , we , our wives , our sons , and our daughters ; ylt @Jeremiah:35:9 @nor to build houses for our dwelling ; and vineyard , and field , and seed , we have none ; ylt @Jeremiah:35:10 @and we dwell in tents , and we hearken , and we do according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us ; ylt @Jeremiah:35:11 @and it cometh to pass , in the coming up of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon unto the land , that we say , Come , and we enter Jerusalem , because of the force of the Chaldeans , and because of the force of Aram -- and we dwell in Jerusalem .' ylt @Jeremiah:35:12 @And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah , saying : 'Thus said Jehovah of Hosts , God of Israel : ylt @Jeremiah:35:13 @'Go , and thou hast said to the men of Judah , and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem : Do ye not receive instruction ? -- to hearken unto My words -- an affirmation of Jehovah . ylt @Jeremiah:35:14 @Performed have been the words of Jonadab son of Rechab , when he commanded his sons not to drink wine , and they have not drunk unto this day , for they have obeyed the command of their father ; and I -- I have spoken unto you , rising early and speaking , and ye have not hearkened unto Me . ylt @Jeremiah:35:15 @And I send unto you all My servants the prophets , rising early and sending , saying : Turn back , I pray you , each from his evil way , and amend your doings , yea , ye do not walk after other gods , to serve them , and dwell ye on the ground that I have given to you and to your fathers ; and ye have not inclined your ear , nor hearkened unto Me . ylt @Jeremiah:35:16 @'Because the sons of Jonadab son of Rechab have performed the command of their father , that he commanded them , and this people have not hearkened unto Me , ylt @Jeremiah:35:17 @therefore thus said Jehovah , God of Hosts , God of Israel : Lo , I am bringing in unto Judah , and unto all inhabitants of Jerusalem , all the evil that I have spoken against them , because I have spoken unto them , and they have not hearkened , yea , I call to them , and they have not answered .' ylt @Jeremiah:35:18 @And to the house of the Rechabites said Jeremiah : 'Thus said Jehovah of Hosts , God of Israel , Because that ye have hearkened unto the command of Jonadab your father , and ye observe all his commands , and do according to all that he commanded you ; ylt @Jeremiah:35:19 @therefore , thus said Jehovah of Hosts , God of Israel , Of Jonadab son of Rechab one standing before me is not cut off all the days .' ylt @Jeremiah:36:1 @And it cometh to pass , in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah , this word hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah , saying : ylt @Jeremiah:36:2 @'Take to thee a roll of a book , and thou hast written on it all the words that I have spoken unto thee concerning Israel , and concerning Judah , and concerning all the nations , from the day I spake unto thee , from the days of Josiah , even unto this day ;

, and to their sin .' ylt @Jeremiah:36:4 @And Jeremiah calleth Baruch son of Neriah , and Baruch writeth from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of Jehovah , that He hath spoken unto him , on a roll of a book . ylt @Jeremiah:36:5 @And Jeremiah commandeth Baruch , saying , 'I am restrained , I am not able to enter the house of Jehovah ; ylt @Jeremiah:36:6 @but thou hast entered -- and thou hast read in the roll that thou hast written from my mouth , the words of Jehovah , in the ears of the people , in the house of Jehovah , in the day of the fast , and also in the ears of all Judah who are coming in from their cities thou dost read them ; ylt @Jeremiah:36:7 @if so be their supplication doth fall before Jehovah , and they turn back each from his evil way , for great [is ] the anger and the fury that Jehovah hath spoken concerning this people .' ylt @Jeremiah:36:8 @And Baruch son of Neriah doth according to all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him , to read in the book the words

, in the chamber of Gemariah son of Shaphan the scribe , in the higher court , at the opening of the new gate of the house of Jehovah , in the ears of all the people . ylt @Jeremiah:36:11 @And Michaiah son of Gemariah , son of Shaphan , heareth all the words of Jehovah from off the book , ylt @Jeremiah:36:12 @and he goeth down [to ] the house of the king , unto the chamber of the scribe , and lo , there are all the heads sitting : Elishama the scribe , and Delaiah son of Shemaiah , and Elnathan son of Acbor , and Gemariah son of Shaphan , and Zedekiah son of Hananiah , and all the heads . ylt @Jeremiah:36:13 @And declare to them doth Micaiah all the words that he hath heard , when Baruch readeth in the book in the ears of the people ; ylt @Jeremiah:36:14 @and all the heads send unto Baruch , Jehudi son of Nethaniah , son of Shelemiah , son of Cushi , saying , 'The roll in which thou hast read in the ears of the people take in thy hand , and come .' And Baruch son of Neriah taketh the roll in his hand and cometh in unto them , ylt @Jeremiah:36:15 @and they say unto him , 'Sit down , we pray thee , and read it in our ears ,' and Baruch readeth in their ears , ylt @Jeremiah:36:16 @and it cometh to pass , when they hear all the words , they have been afraid one at another , and say unto Baruch , 'We do surely declare to the king all these words .' ylt @Jeremiah:36:17 @And they asked Baruch , saying , 'Declare , we pray thee , to us , how didst thou write all these words -- from his mouth ?' ylt @Jeremiah:36:18 @And Baruch saith to them , 'From his mouth , he pronounceth unto me all these words , and I am writing on the book with ink .' ylt @Jeremiah:36:19 @And the heads say unto Baruch , 'Go , be hidden , thou and Jeremiah , and let no one know where ye [are ].' ylt @Jeremiah:36:20 @And they go in unto the king , to the court , and the roll they have laid up in the chamber of Elishama the scribe , and they declare in the ears of the king all the words . ylt @Jeremiah:36:21 @And the king sendeth Jehudi to take the roll , and he taketh it out of the chamber of Elishama the scribe , and Jehudi readeth it in the ears of the king , and in the ears of all the heads who are standing by the king ; ylt @Jeremiah:36:22 @and the king is sitting in the winter-house , in the ninth month , and the stove before him is burning , ylt @Jeremiah:36:23 @and it cometh to pass , when Jehudi readeth three or four leaves , he cutteth it out with the scribe 's knife , and hath cast unto the fire , that [is ] on the stove , till the consumption of all the roll by the fire that [is ] on the stove . ylt @Jeremiah:36:24 @And the king and all his servants who are hearing all these words have not been afraid , nor rent their garments . ylt @Jeremiah:36:25 @And also Elnathan , and Delaiah , and Gemariah have interceded with the king not to burn the roll , and he hath not hearkened unto them . ylt @Jeremiah:36:26 @And the king commandeth Jerahmeel son of Hammelek , and Seraiah son of Azriel , and Shelemiah son of Abdeel , to take Baruch the scribe , and Jeremiah the prophet , and Jehovah doth hide them . ylt @Jeremiah:36:27 @And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah -- after the king 's burning the roll , even the words that Baruch hath written from the mouth of Jeremiah -- saying : ylt @Jeremiah:36:28 @'Turn , take to thee another roll , and write on it all the former words that were on the first roll , that Jehoiakim king of Judah burnt , ylt @Jeremiah:36:29 @and unto Jehoiakim king of Judah thou dost say : Thus said Jehovah , Thou hast burnt this roll , saying , Wherefore hast thou written on it , saying , The king of Babylon surely cometh in , and hath destroyed this land , and caused to cease from it man and beast ? ylt @Jeremiah:36:30 @'Therefore , thus said Jehovah , concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah : He hath none sitting on the throne of David , and his carcase is cast out to heat by day , and to cold by night ; ylt @Jeremiah:36:31 @and I have charged on him , and on his seed , and on his servants , their iniquity ; and I have brought in on them , and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem , and unto the men of Judah , all the evil that I have spoken unto them , and they hearkened not .' ylt @Jeremiah:36:32 @And Jeremiah hath taken another roll , and giveth it unto Baruch son of Neriah the scribe , and he writeth on it from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book that Jehoiakim king of Judah hath burnt in the fire ; and again there were added unto them many words like these . ylt @Jeremiah:37:1 @And reign doth king Zedekiah son of Josiah instead of Coniah son of Jehoiakim whom Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon had caused to reign in the land of Judah ,
