CKJV_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

8 H1697 This is the word H3414 that came unto Jeremiah H3068 from the Lord, H310 after H4428 that the king H6667 Zedekiah H3772 had made H1285 a covenant H5971 with all the people H3389 which were at Jerusalem, H7121 to proclaim H1865 liberty unto them;

9 H376 That every man H5650 should let his manservant, H376 and every man H8198 his maidservant, H5680 being a Hebrew H5680 or a Hebrewess, H7971 go H2670 free; H5647 that none should serve H3064 himself of them, to know, of a Jew H251 his brother.

10 H8269 Now when all the princes, H5971 and all the people, H935 which had entered H1285 into the covenant, H8085 heard H376 that every one H5650 should let his manservant, H376 and every one H8198 his maidservant, H7971 go H2670 free, H5647 that none should serve H8085 themselves of them any more, then they obeyed, H7971 and let them go.

11 H310 But afterward H7725 they turned, H5650 and caused the servants H8198 and the handmaids, H7971 whom they had let go H2670 free, H7725 to return, H3533 and brought them into subjection H5650 for servants H8198 and for handmaids.

12 H1697 Therefore the word H3068 of the Lord H3414 came to Jeremiah H3068 from the Lord, H559 saying,

13 H559 Thus says H3068 the Lord, H430 the God H3478 of Israel; H3772 I made H1285 a covenant H1 with your fathers H3117 in the day H3318 that I brought them forth H776 out of the land H4714 of Egypt, H1004 out of the house H5650 of bondmen, H559 saying,

14 H7093 At the end H7651 of seven H8141 years H7971 let you go H376 every man H251 his brother H5680 a Hebrew, H4376 which has been sold H5647 unto you; and when he has served H8337 you six H8141 years, H7971 you shall let him go H2670 free H1 from you: but your fathers H8085 listened H5186 not unto me, neither inclined H241 their ear.

15 H3117 And you were now H7725 turned, H6213 and had done H3477 right H5869 in my sight, H7121 in proclaiming H1865 liberty H376 every man H7453 to his neighbor; H3772 and you had made H1285 a covenant H6440 before H1004 me in the house H7121 which is called H8034 by my name:

16 H7725 But you turned H2490 and polluted H8034 my name, H376 and caused every man H5650 his servant, H376 and every man H8198 his handmaid, H7971 whom you had set H2670 at liberty H5315 at their pleasure, H7725 to return, H3533 and brought them into subjection, H5650 to be unto you for servants H8198 and for handmaids.
