Seeker Overlay ON
*
And it came to pass the same year ,
in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah ,
in the fourth year ,
and in the fifth month ,
that Hananiah the son of Azur the prophet ,
which was of Gibeon Gib #
own #,
spake unto me in the house of the LORD ,
in the presence of the priests and of all the people ,
saying ,
*
Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts ,
the God of Israel Yisra #
el #,
saying ,
I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon .
*
Within two full years will I bring again into this place all the vessels of the LORDS house ,
that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place ,
and carried them to Babylon :
*
And I will bringagain to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah ,
with all the captives of Judah ,
that went into Babylon ,
saith the LORD :
for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon .
*
Then the prophet Jeremiah said unto the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests ,
and in the presence of all the people that stood in the house of the LORD ,
*
Even the prophet Jeremiah said ,
Amen :
the LORD do so :
the LORD perform thy words which thou hast prophesied ,
to bring again the vessels of the LORDS house ,
and all that is carried away captive ,
from Babylon into this place .
*
Nevertheless hear thou now this word that I speak in thine ears ,
and in the ears of all the people ;
*
The prophets that have been before me and before thee of old prophesied both against many countries ,
and against great kingdoms ,
of war ,
and of evil ,
and of pestilence .
*
The prophet which prophesieth of peace ,
when the word of the prophet shall come to pass ,
then shall the prophet be known ,
that the LORD hath truly sent him .
