Chapter 7

1 The word1697 that came1961 to Jeremiah3414 from the LORD,3068 saying,559

2 Stand5975 in the gate8179 of the LORD's3068 house,1004 and proclaim7121 there8033 this2088 word,1697 and say,559 Hear8085 the word1697 of the LORD,3068 all3605 you of Judah,3063 that enter935 in at these428 gates8179 to worship7812 the LORD.3068

3 Thus3541 said559 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 the God430 of Israel,3478 Amend3190 your ways1870 and your doings,4611 and I will cause you to dwell7931 in this2088 place.4725

4 Trust982 you not in lying8267 words,1697 saying,559 The temple1964 of the LORD,3068 The temple1964 of the LORD,3068 The temple1964 of the LORD,3068 are these.1992

5 For if518 you thoroughly amend3190 your ways1870 and your doings;4611 if518 you thoroughly execute6213 judgment4941 between996 a man376 and his neighbor;7453

6 If you oppress6231 not the stranger,1616 the fatherless,3490 and the widow,490 and shed8210 not innocent5355 blood1818 in this2088 place,4725 neither3808 walk3212 after310 other312 gods430 to your hurt:7451

7 Then will I cause you to dwell7931 in this2088 place,4725 in the land776 that I gave5414 to your fathers,1 for ever5769 and ever.5769

8 Behold,2009 you trust982 in lying8267 words,1697 that cannot1115 profit.3276

9 Will you steal,1589 murder,7523 and commit5003 adultery,5003 and swear7650 falsely,8267 and burn6999 incense6999 to Baal,1168 and walk1980 after310 other312 gods430 whom834 you know3045 not;

10 And come935 and stand5975 before6440 me in this2088 house,1004 which834 is called7121 by my name,8034 and say,559 We are delivered5337 to do6213 all3605 these428 abominations?8441

11 Is this2088 house,1004 which834 is called7121 by my name,8034 become1961 a den4631 of robbers6530 in your eyes?5869 Behold,2009 even1571 I have seen7200 it, said5002 the LORD.3068

12 But go3212 you now4994 to my place4725 which834 was in Shiloh,7887 where834 8033 I set7931 my name8034 at the first,7223 and see7200 what853 834 I did6213 to it for the wickedness7451 of my people5971 Israel.3478

13 And now,4994 because3282 you have done6213 all3605 these428 works,4639 said5002 the LORD,3068 and I spoke1696 to you, rising7925 up early7925 and speaking,1696 but you heard8085 not; and I called7121 you, but you answered6030 not;

14 Therefore will I do6213 to this house,1004 which834 is called7121 by my name,8034 wherein834 you trust,982 and to the place4725 which834 I gave5414 to you and to your fathers,1 as I have done6213 to Shiloh.7887

15 And I will cast7993 you out of my sight,6440 as I have cast7993 out all3605 your brothers,251 even853 the whole3605 seed2233 of Ephraim.669

16 Therefore pray6419 not you for this2088 people,5971 neither408 lift5375 up cry7440 nor408 prayer8605 for them, neither408 make intercession6293 to me: for I will not hear8085 you.

17 See7200 you not what4100 they do6213 in the cities5892 of Judah3063 and in the streets2351 of Jerusalem?3389

18 The children1121 gather3950 wood,6086 and the fathers1 kindle1197 the fire,784 and the women802 knead3888 their dough,1217 to make6213 cakes3561 to the queen4446 of heaven,8064 and to pour5258 out drink5262 offerings5262 to other312 gods,430 that they may provoke me to anger.3707

19 Do they provoke me to anger?3707 said5002 the LORD:3068 do they not provoke themselves to the confusion1322 of their own faces?6440

20 Therefore3651 thus3541 said559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Behold,2009 my anger639 and my fury2534 shall be poured5413 out on this2088 place,4725 on man,120 and on beast,929 and on the trees6086 of the field,7704 and on the fruit6529 of the ground;127 and it shall burn,1197 and shall not be quenched.3518

21 Thus3541 said559 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 the God430 of Israel;3478 Put5595 your burnt5930 offerings to your sacrifices,2077 and eat398 flesh.1320

22 For I spoke1696 not to your fathers,1 nor3808 commanded6680 them in the day3117 that I brought3318 them out of the land776 of Egypt,4714 concerning5921 1697 burnt5930 offerings or sacrifices:2077

23 But this2088 thing1697 commanded6680 I them, saying,559 Obey8085 my voice,6963 and I will be your God,430 and you shall be my people:5971 and walk1980 you in all3605 the ways1870 that I have commanded6680 you, that it may be well3190 to you.

24 But they listened8085 not, nor3808 inclined5186 their ear,241 but walked3212 in the counsels4156 and in the imagination8307 of their evil7451 heart,3820 and went1961 backward,268 and not forward.6440

25 Since4480 the day3117 that your fathers1 came3318 forth3318 out of the land776 of Egypt4714 to this2088 day3117 I have even sent7971 to you all3605 my servants5650 the prophets,5030 daily3117 rising7925 up early7925 and sending7971 them:

26 Yet they listened8085 not to me, nor3808 inclined5186 their ear,241 but hardened7185 their neck:6202 they did worse7489 than their fathers.1

27 Therefore you shall speak1696 all3605 these428 words1697 to them; but they will not listen8085 to you: you shall also call7121 to them; but they will not answer6030 you.

28 But you shall say559 to them, This2088 is a nation1471 that obeys8085 not the voice6963 of the LORD3068 their God,430 nor3808 receives3947 correction:4148 truth530 is perished,6 and is cut3772 off from their mouth.6310

29 Cut1494 off your hair,5145 O Jerusalem, and cast7993 it away, and take5375 up a lamentation7015 on5921 high8205 places; for the LORD3068 has rejected3988 and forsaken5203 the generation1755 of his wrath.5678

30 For the children1121 of Judah3063 have done6213 evil7451 in my sight,5869 said5002 the LORD:3068 they have set7760 their abominations8251 in the house1004 which834 is called7121 by my name,8034 to pollute2930 it.

31 And they have built1129 the high1116 places of Tophet,8612 which834 is in the valley1516 of the son1121 of Hinnom,2011 to burn8313 their sons1121 and their daughters1323 in the fire;784 which834 I commanded6680 them not, neither3808 came5927 it into5921 my heart.3820

32 Therefore,3651 behold,2009 the days3117 come,935 said5002 the LORD,3068 that it shall no3808 more5750 be called559 Tophet,8612 nor the valley1516 of the son1121 of Hinnom,2011 but the valley1516 of slaughter:2028 for they shall bury6912 in Tophet,8612 till there be no369 place.4725

33 And the carcasses5038 of this2088 people5971 shall be meat3978 for the fowls5775 of the heaven,8064 and for the beasts929 of the earth;776 and none369 shall fray2729 them away.

34 Then will I cause to cease7673 from the cities5892 of Judah,3063 and from the streets2351 of Jerusalem,3389 the voice6963 of mirth,8342 and the voice6963 of gladness,8057 the voice6963 of the bridegroom,2860 and the voice6963 of the bride:3618 for the land776 shall be desolate.2723

Jeremiah

Chapter 7

1 THE word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,

2 Stand in the gate of the LORD'S house and proclaim there this word, and say, Hear the word of the LORD, all the house of Judah who enter in these gates to worship the LORD.

3 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.

4 Do not trust in the lying words of those who say to you, The temple of the LORD, the temple of the LORD.

5 For if you amend your ways and your doings, you are the temple of the LORD; if you execute justice between a man and his neighbor;

6 If you do not defraud and oppress the strangers, the fatherless, and the widows, and do not shed innocent blood in this country, neither walk after other gods to your hurt:

7 Then I will cause you to dwell in this country, in the land that I gave to your fathers for ever and ever.

8 Behold, you trust in lying words that cannot profit.

9 Indeed you are thieves, you are murderers, and you commit adultery and swear falsely and burn incense to Baal and walk after other gods whom you know not;

10 And then you come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, Deliver us; and yet you do all these evils.

11 Is this house which is called by my name become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, even I have seen it, says the LORD.

12 Therefore go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I set my name at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.

13 And now, because you have done all these works, says the LORD, and I warned you in advance and spoke to you, but you did not listen; and I called you, but you did not answer;

14 Therefore I will do to this house which is called by my name, in which you trust, and to this city which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.

15 And I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, even all the descendants of Ephraim.

16 Therefore do not pray for this people, neither supplicate for them nor make intercession to me; for I will not hear you.

17 Do you not see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

18 The children gather wood and the fathers kindle the fire and the women knead dough to make cakes to the queen of heaven and they pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.

19 It is not I that they provoke, says the LORD, but they provoke themselves so that they may be ashamed.

20 Therefore thus says the LORD God, Behold, my anger and my wrath shall be poured out upon this country, upon men and upon beasts and upon the trees of the field and upon the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn and shall not be quenched.

21 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices and eat meat which I did not command your fathers to eat.

22 Neither did I command them concerning either burnt offerings or sacrifices in the day when I brought them out of the land of Egypt;

23 But this thing I commanded them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God and you shall be my people; and walk in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well with you.

24 But they did not listen nor incline their ear to hear, but they walked in their own counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward and not forward.

25 From the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt to this day I have sent to them all my servants the prophets, daily.

26 I sent them in advance to warn them; but they did not listen nor incline their ear toward me, but hardened their necks more than their fathers.

27 Therefore you shall speak all these words to them; but they will not hearken to you; you shall also call to them; but they will not answer you.

28 Truth is perished and is cut off from their mouth.

29 Cut off your hair, Jerusalem, and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on high ways; for the LORD is angry and has forsaken this passing generation.

30 For the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, says the LORD; they have set their abomination in the house which is called by my name and they have polluted it.

31 And they have built altars by the Taphat (stream) which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I commanded them not, neither did I think of it.

32 Therefore, behold, the days come, says the LORD, that it shall no more be called Taphat, nor the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter; for they shall bury in the stream for the lack of ground.

33 And the corpses of this people shall be meat for the fowls of the air and for the beasts of the earth; and there will be no deliverer.

34 Then I shall cause to cease from the cities of Judah and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride; for all the land shall become desolate.

Chapter 7

1 The word1697 that came1961 to Jeremiah3414 from the LORD,3068 saying,559

1 THE word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,

2 Stand5975 in the gate8179 of the LORD's3068 house,1004 and proclaim7121 there8033 this2088 word,1697 and say,559 Hear8085 the word1697 of the LORD,3068 all3605 you of Judah,3063 that enter935 in at these428 gates8179 to worship7812 the LORD.3068

2 Stand in the gate of the LORD'S house and proclaim there this word, and say, Hear the word of the LORD, all the house of Judah who enter in these gates to worship the LORD.

3 Thus3541 said559 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 the God430 of Israel,3478 Amend3190 your ways1870 and your doings,4611 and I will cause you to dwell7931 in this2088 place.4725

3 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.

4 Trust982 you not in lying8267 words,1697 saying,559 The temple1964 of the LORD,3068 The temple1964 of the LORD,3068 The temple1964 of the LORD,3068 are these.1992

4 Do not trust in the lying words of those who say to you, The temple of the LORD, the temple of the LORD.

5 For if518 you thoroughly amend3190 your ways1870 and your doings;4611 if518 you thoroughly execute6213 judgment4941 between996 a man376 and his neighbor;7453

5 For if you amend your ways and your doings, you are the temple of the LORD; if you execute justice between a man and his neighbor;

6 If you oppress6231 not the stranger,1616 the fatherless,3490 and the widow,490 and shed8210 not innocent5355 blood1818 in this2088 place,4725 neither3808 walk3212 after310 other312 gods430 to your hurt:7451

6 If you do not defraud and oppress the strangers, the fatherless, and the widows, and do not shed innocent blood in this country, neither walk after other gods to your hurt:

7 Then will I cause you to dwell7931 in this2088 place,4725 in the land776 that I gave5414 to your fathers,1 for ever5769 and ever.5769

7 Then I will cause you to dwell in this country, in the land that I gave to your fathers for ever and ever.

8 Behold,2009 you trust982 in lying8267 words,1697 that cannot1115 profit.3276

8 Behold, you trust in lying words that cannot profit.

9 Will you steal,1589 murder,7523 and commit5003 adultery,5003 and swear7650 falsely,8267 and burn6999 incense6999 to Baal,1168 and walk1980 after310 other312 gods430 whom834 you know3045 not;

9 Indeed you are thieves, you are murderers, and you commit adultery and swear falsely and burn incense to Baal and walk after other gods whom you know not;

10 And come935 and stand5975 before6440 me in this2088 house,1004 which834 is called7121 by my name,8034 and say,559 We are delivered5337 to do6213 all3605 these428 abominations?8441

10 And then you come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, Deliver us; and yet you do all these evils.

11 Is this2088 house,1004 which834 is called7121 by my name,8034 become1961 a den4631 of robbers6530 in your eyes?5869 Behold,2009 even1571 I have seen7200 it, said5002 the LORD.3068

11 Is this house which is called by my name become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, even I have seen it, says the LORD.

12 But go3212 you now4994 to my place4725 which834 was in Shiloh,7887 where834 8033 I set7931 my name8034 at the first,7223 and see7200 what853 834 I did6213 to it for the wickedness7451 of my people5971 Israel.3478

12 Therefore go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I set my name at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.

13 And now,4994 because3282 you have done6213 all3605 these428 works,4639 said5002 the LORD,3068 and I spoke1696 to you, rising7925 up early7925 and speaking,1696 but you heard8085 not; and I called7121 you, but you answered6030 not;

13 And now, because you have done all these works, says the LORD, and I warned you in advance and spoke to you, but you did not listen; and I called you, but you did not answer;

14 Therefore will I do6213 to this house,1004 which834 is called7121 by my name,8034 wherein834 you trust,982 and to the place4725 which834 I gave5414 to you and to your fathers,1 as I have done6213 to Shiloh.7887

14 Therefore I will do to this house which is called by my name, in which you trust, and to this city which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.

15 And I will cast7993 you out of my sight,6440 as I have cast7993 out all3605 your brothers,251 even853 the whole3605 seed2233 of Ephraim.669

15 And I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, even all the descendants of Ephraim.

16 Therefore pray6419 not you for this2088 people,5971 neither408 lift5375 up cry7440 nor408 prayer8605 for them, neither408 make intercession6293 to me: for I will not hear8085 you.

16 Therefore do not pray for this people, neither supplicate for them nor make intercession to me; for I will not hear you.

17 See7200 you not what4100 they do6213 in the cities5892 of Judah3063 and in the streets2351 of Jerusalem?3389

17 Do you not see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

18 The children1121 gather3950 wood,6086 and the fathers1 kindle1197 the fire,784 and the women802 knead3888 their dough,1217 to make6213 cakes3561 to the queen4446 of heaven,8064 and to pour5258 out drink5262 offerings5262 to other312 gods,430 that they may provoke me to anger.3707

18 The children gather wood and the fathers kindle the fire and the women knead dough to make cakes to the queen of heaven and they pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.

19 Do they provoke me to anger?3707 said5002 the LORD:3068 do they not provoke themselves to the confusion1322 of their own faces?6440

19 It is not I that they provoke, says the LORD, but they provoke themselves so that they may be ashamed.

20 Therefore3651 thus3541 said559 the Lord136 GOD;3069 Behold,2009 my anger639 and my fury2534 shall be poured5413 out on this2088 place,4725 on man,120 and on beast,929 and on the trees6086 of the field,7704 and on the fruit6529 of the ground;127 and it shall burn,1197 and shall not be quenched.3518

20 Therefore thus says the LORD God, Behold, my anger and my wrath shall be poured out upon this country, upon men and upon beasts and upon the trees of the field and upon the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn and shall not be quenched.

21 Thus3541 said559 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 the God430 of Israel;3478 Put5595 your burnt5930 offerings to your sacrifices,2077 and eat398 flesh.1320

21 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices and eat meat which I did not command your fathers to eat.

22 For I spoke1696 not to your fathers,1 nor3808 commanded6680 them in the day3117 that I brought3318 them out of the land776 of Egypt,4714 concerning5921 1697 burnt5930 offerings or sacrifices:2077

22 Neither did I command them concerning either burnt offerings or sacrifices in the day when I brought them out of the land of Egypt;

23 But this2088 thing1697 commanded6680 I them, saying,559 Obey8085 my voice,6963 and I will be your God,430 and you shall be my people:5971 and walk1980 you in all3605 the ways1870 that I have commanded6680 you, that it may be well3190 to you.

23 But this thing I commanded them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God and you shall be my people; and walk in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well with you.

24 But they listened8085 not, nor3808 inclined5186 their ear,241 but walked3212 in the counsels4156 and in the imagination8307 of their evil7451 heart,3820 and went1961 backward,268 and not forward.6440

24 But they did not listen nor incline their ear to hear, but they walked in their own counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward and not forward.

25 Since4480 the day3117 that your fathers1 came3318 forth3318 out of the land776 of Egypt4714 to this2088 day3117 I have even sent7971 to you all3605 my servants5650 the prophets,5030 daily3117 rising7925 up early7925 and sending7971 them:

25 From the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt to this day I have sent to them all my servants the prophets, daily.

26 Yet they listened8085 not to me, nor3808 inclined5186 their ear,241 but hardened7185 their neck:6202 they did worse7489 than their fathers.1

26 I sent them in advance to warn them; but they did not listen nor incline their ear toward me, but hardened their necks more than their fathers.

27 Therefore you shall speak1696 all3605 these428 words1697 to them; but they will not listen8085 to you: you shall also call7121 to them; but they will not answer6030 you.

27 Therefore you shall speak all these words to them; but they will not hearken to you; you shall also call to them; but they will not answer you.

28 But you shall say559 to them, This2088 is a nation1471 that obeys8085 not the voice6963 of the LORD3068 their God,430 nor3808 receives3947 correction:4148 truth530 is perished,6 and is cut3772 off from their mouth.6310

28 Truth is perished and is cut off from their mouth.

29 Cut1494 off your hair,5145 O Jerusalem, and cast7993 it away, and take5375 up a lamentation7015 on5921 high8205 places; for the LORD3068 has rejected3988 and forsaken5203 the generation1755 of his wrath.5678

29 Cut off your hair, Jerusalem, and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on high ways; for the LORD is angry and has forsaken this passing generation.

30 For the children1121 of Judah3063 have done6213 evil7451 in my sight,5869 said5002 the LORD:3068 they have set7760 their abominations8251 in the house1004 which834 is called7121 by my name,8034 to pollute2930 it.

30 For the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, says the LORD; they have set their abomination in the house which is called by my name and they have polluted it.

31 And they have built1129 the high1116 places of Tophet,8612 which834 is in the valley1516 of the son1121 of Hinnom,2011 to burn8313 their sons1121 and their daughters1323 in the fire;784 which834 I commanded6680 them not, neither3808 came5927 it into5921 my heart.3820

31 And they have built altars by the Taphat (stream) which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I commanded them not, neither did I think of it.

32 Therefore,3651 behold,2009 the days3117 come,935 said5002 the LORD,3068 that it shall no3808 more5750 be called559 Tophet,8612 nor the valley1516 of the son1121 of Hinnom,2011 but the valley1516 of slaughter:2028 for they shall bury6912 in Tophet,8612 till there be no369 place.4725

32 Therefore, behold, the days come, says the LORD, that it shall no more be called Taphat, nor the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter; for they shall bury in the stream for the lack of ground.

33 And the carcasses5038 of this2088 people5971 shall be meat3978 for the fowls5775 of the heaven,8064 and for the beasts929 of the earth;776 and none369 shall fray2729 them away.

33 And the corpses of this people shall be meat for the fowls of the air and for the beasts of the earth; and there will be no deliverer.

34 Then will I cause to cease7673 from the cities5892 of Judah,3063 and from the streets2351 of Jerusalem,3389 the voice6963 of mirth,8342 and the voice6963 of gladness,8057 the voice6963 of the bridegroom,2860 and the voice6963 of the bride:3618 for the land776 shall be desolate.2723

34 Then I shall cause to cease from the cities of Judah and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride; for all the land shall become desolate.
