rotherham@Jeremiah:8:1 @ At that time, Declareth Yahweh, Shall they bring forth, The bones of the kings of Judah, and The bones of his princes, and The bones of the priests, and The bones of the prophets, and The bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, Out of their graves,
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:2 @ And shall spread them out To the sun, and To the moon, and To all the host of the heavens, Whom they have loved, And whom they have served, And after whom they have walked, And whom they have sought, And to whom they have bowed themselves down, They shall not be gathered, Neither shall they be buried, As heaps of dung on the face of the ground, shall they be.
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:3 @ Then shall, death, be chosen rather than life, by all the remnant of them that remain, of this wicked family, in all the places, whither I have driven them, Declareth Yahweh of hosts.
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:4 @ Therefore shalt thou say unto them Thus, saith Yahweh, Will men fall and not arise? Will one turn away, and not come back?
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:5 @ Wherefore hath this people of Jerusalem apostatized with an enduring apostacy, Taken fast hold of deceit, Refused to come back?
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:6 @ I hearkened and heard Not aright, did they speak, Not a man, repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done! They have every one, turned to their course again, Like a horse sweeping on through the battle.
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:7 @ Even the stork in the heavens knoweth her appointed times, And the turtle and the swallow and the crane, observe the season for coming; But my people know not the just sentence of Yahweh.
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:8 @ How can ye say, Wise, are, we, And the law of Yahweh, is with us? But indeed lo! falsely, hath dealt the false pen of the scribes!
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:9 @ Ashamed are the wise, dismayed and captured! Lo! the word of Yahweh, have they rejected, And, what wisdom, have, they?
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:10 @ Therefore, will I give Their wives to others, Their fields to such as shall take possession of them, For from the least, even unto the greatest, Every one, is, wholly given to extortion: From the prophet even unto the priest, Every one, dealeth, falsely.
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:11 @ And so they have healed the grievous wound of the daughter of my people, slightly, Saying, Peace! peace! when there was no peace!
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:12 @ Were they led to turn pale because an abominable thing, they had done? Nay! they did not, at all turn pale Nay! they did not so much as know how to exhibit shame! Therefore, shall they fall among them who are falling, In the time when they are punished, shall they be overthrown, Saith Yahweh:
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:13 @ I will, surely remove, them, declareth Yahweh: There shall be no grapes on the vine Nor figs on the fig-tree, Even the leaf, hath faded, Though I have given them these things, they shall pass away from them.
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:14 @ Why are, well sitting still? Gather yourselves together and let us enter the defenced cities And let us be silent there, For, Yahweh our God, hath put us to silence And made us drink poisoned water, Because we have sinned against Yahweh.
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:15 @ A waiting For prosperity, but no welfare, For a time of healing, but lo! terror.
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:16 @ From Dan, was heard the snorting of his horses At the sound of the neighing of his chargers, the whole land trembled, Yea they came in and did sat up The land and the fulness thereof, The city, and them who were dwelling therein.
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:17 @ For behold me! sending among you serpentsvipers which there is no charming, And they shall fatally bite you declareth Yahweh.
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:18 @ When I would have cheered myself against sorrow, Against me, mine own heart sickened:
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:19 @ Lo! the voice of the cry for help of the daughter of my people from a land far away, Is, Yahweh, not in Zion? Is, her King, not within her? Why, have they provoked me with their carved images, with their foreign vanities?
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:20 @ The harvest is passed, The fruit-gathering, is ended; And we are not saved!
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:21 @ For the grievous injury of the daughter of my people, I am grievously injured, I am enshrouded in gloom, Horror, hath seized me:
rotherham@Jeremiah:8:22 @ Balsam, is there none, in Gilead? Is there no physician, there? Why hath not appeared the healing of the daughter of my people?
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:1 @ Oh that my head were waters, And mine eyes a fountain of tears, That I might weep day and night, For the slain of the daughter of my people!
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:2 @ Oh that I had in the wilderness, a wayfarers lodge, That I might leave my people, and go from them, For they all, are Adulterers, An assemblage of traitors;
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:3 @ Who have prepared e their tongue as their bow of falsehood, And, not by faithfulness, have they become mighty in the land, For from wickedness unto wickedness, have they gone forth, But me, have they not known, Declareth Yahweh.
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:4 @ Every one, of his neighbour, beware ye, And in no brother, may ye trust, For, every brother, supplanteth! And every neighbour, as a tale-bearer, goeth about;
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:5 @ Yea, every one, of his neighbour, maketh a dupe, And, truth, they do not speak, They have taught their tongue to speak falsehood, In acting perversely, they have wearied themselves.
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:6 @ Thy dwelling, is in the midst of deceit, Through deceit, have they rejected the knowledge of, me, Declareth Yahweh.
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:7 @ Therefore, thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, Behold me! melting them, so will I try them, For how else should I do because of the wickedness of the daughter of my people?
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:8 @ A pointed arrow, is their tongue Deceit, hath it spoken, With his mouth peace unto his neighbour, doth one speak, But within himself, he layeth his ambush.
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:9 @ For these things, shall I not bring punishment on them? Demandeth Yahweh, On a nation such as this, must not my soul avenge herself!
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:10 @ Over the mountains, will I take up a weeping and wailing, And over the oases of the desert, a dirge, For they have been burned, so that no man passeth through, Neither have men heard the lowing of cattle, Both the bird of the heavens and the beast have fled, have gone their way:
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:11 @ Thus will I give up Jerusalem To heaps, A habitation for jackals, And the cities of Judah, will I give up to desolation, without inhabitant.
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:12 @ Who, is the man that is wise That he may discern this? And, unto whom, hath the mouth of Yahweh spoken, That he may declare it? For what cause Hath the land perished, Hath it been burned as a wilderness that no man passeth through?
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:13 @ Then said Yahweh, Because they have forsaken my law, which I set before them, And have not hearkened to hay voice neither walked therein;
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:14 @ But have gone their way, After the stubbornness of their own heart, And after the Baals which their fathers taught them,
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:15 @ Therefore, Thus saith Yahweh of hosts, The God of Israel, Behold me! Feeding them, even this people, with wormwood, And I will cause them to drink, poisoned water;
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:16 @ And will scatter them among the nations, which neither they nor their fathers, have known, And will send after them the sword, until I have consumed them.
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:17 @ Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, Consider ye diligently and call for the wailing women that they may come, And unto the wise women, send ye, that they may come;
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:18 @ Yea let them make haste, and lift up over us a wailing, That our eyes, may run down, with tears, And, our eyelashes, stream down with water;
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:19 @ Yea, a voice of wailing, hath been heard out of Zion How are we ruined! We have turned very pale For we have left the land, For they have cast down our habitations.
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:20 @ For hear O ye women the word of Yahweh, And let your ear take in the word of his mouth, And teach your daughters a wail, Yea leach womanher neighbour, a dirge:
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:21 @ That death Hath come up through our windows, Hath entered our palaces, Cutting off The boy from the street, The young men from the broadways.
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:22 @ Speak thou, Thus, declareth Yahweh, So shall fall the dead bodies of men, Like dung heaps on the face of the field, And like swaths after the harvestman, With none to gather.
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:23 @ Thus, saith Yahweh Let not, the wise man, glory in his wisdom, Neither let, the mighty man, glory, in his might, Let not, the rich man, glory in his riches;
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:24 @ But, in this, let the glorying one glory In having intelligence and in knowing me, That, I, am Yahweh, Executing lovingkindness, justice, and righteousness in the earth, That in these things, I delight Declareth Yahweh.
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:25 @ Lo! days are coming, Declareth Yahweh, When I will bring punishment upon every one circumcised, With him that is uncircumcised:
rotherham@Jeremiah:9:26 @ Upon Egypt and upon Judah, And upon Edom, and upon the sons of Ammon, And upon Moab, And upon all the clipped beards, The dwellers in the desert, For, all the nations, are uncircumcised, And, all the house of Israel, are uncircumcised in heart.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:1 @ Hear ye the word which Yahweh hath spoken unto you, O house of Israel:
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:2 @ Thus, saith Yahweh Unto the way of the nations, become not ye accustomed, Nor at the signs of the heavens, be ye dismayed, Because the nations are dismayed at them.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:3 @ For as for the prescribed customs of the peoples, vanity, they are, For a tree out of the forest, one cutteth down, Work for the hands of a skilled workman with the axe:
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:4 @ With silver and with gold, he decketh it, With nails and with hammers, they fasten them, that it may not totter.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:5 @ Mere palm-trunks turned, they are and cannot speak, They must needs be, carried, for they cannot take a step, Be not afraid of them, for they cannot do harm, And even to do good, is not in their power.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:6 @ None, there is, like unto thee, O Yahweh, Great, art, thou, And, great, is thy Name, for might.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:7 @ Who would not revere thee, O King of nations? For, thee, doth it beseem; Forasmuch as among all the wise men of the nations And throughout all their royal estate, None, there is like unto thee.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:8 @ But at once, do they become brutish and stupid, An example of utmost vanity, is, a tree!
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:9 @ Silver spread into plates, from Tarshish is brought, And gold, from Uphaz, Work for the craftsman and for the hands of the smith, Blue and purple, is their clothing, Work for the skilled, are they all.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:10 @ But, Yahweh, is God in truth, He, is a God that, liveth, And a King of times age-abiding, At his anger, quaketh the earth, And nations cannot endure his wrath.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:11 @ Thus, shall ye say unto them, The gods that made not the heavens, And the earth, Shall perish out of the earth, And from under these heavens!
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:12 @ He that made the earth by his power, That established the world by his wisdom, And by his understanding stretched out the heavens,
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:13 @ At the voice that he uttered, there was a tumult of waters in the heavens, And he caused vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth, The lightnings for rain, he made, And brought forth wind out of his treasuries.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:14 @ Every son of earth hath become too brutish to discern, Every goldsmith, hath been put to shame by a graven image, For a falsehood, is his molten image, Seeing there is no breath in them.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:15 @ Vanity, they are, the handiwork of mockeries, In the time of their visitation, shall they perish.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:16 @ Not like these, is the portion of Jacob, For the fashioner of all things, is, he, And, Israel, is his inherited sceptre, Yahweh of hosts, is his name.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:17 @ Fold up, from the ground thy travelling carpet, O inhabitress of the fortress;
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:18 @ For, thus, saith Yahweh, Behold me! slinging out the inhabitants of the land at this throw, And I will distress them that they may discover it.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:19 @ Woe to me! for my grievous injury, Severe, is my wound, But, I, said, Verily, this, is an affliction and I must bear it:
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:20 @ My tent, is laid waste, And all my tent-cords, are broken, My children, are gone forth from me and they, are not. There is none, To stretch out any more my tent, Or to set up my curtains.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:21 @ For the shepherds, have become brutish, And Yahweh, have they not sought, For this cause, have they not prospered, And, all their flock, is scattered.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:22 @ The noise of a rumour! lo it hath come! Even a great commotion out of the land of the North, To make the cities of Judah, A desolation, A den of jackals.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:23 @ I know O Yahweh, That not to a son of earth, pertaineth his own path, Not, to the man who walketh, also to direct his own steps.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:24 @ Chastise me, O Yahweh But yet in measure, Not in thine anger, lest thou make me few.
rotherham@Jeremiah:10:25 @ Pour out thy wrath Upon the nations that know thee not, and Upon the families that, upon thy Name, have not called, For they have devoured Jacob Yea they have devoured him and consumed him, And, his habitation, have they made desolate.
