1 H6583 Now Pashhur, H1121 the son H564 of Immer H3548 the priest, H6496 who was chief H5057 officer H1004 in the house H3068 of Yahweh, H8085 heard H3414 Jeremiah H5012 prophesying H1697 these things.

2 H6583 Then Pashhur H5221 struck H3414 Jeremiah H5030 the prophet, H5414 and put H4115 him in the stocks H5945 that were in the upper H8179 gate H1144 of Benjamin, H1004 which was in the house H3068 of Yahweh.

3 H4283 It happened on the next day, H6583 that Pashhur H3318 brought forth H3414 Jeremiah H4115 out of the stocks. H3414 Then Jeremiah H559 said H3068 to him, Yahweh H7121 has not called H8034 your name H6583 Pashhur, H4036 but Magormissabib.

4 H559 For thus says H3068 Yahweh, H5414 Behold, I will make H4032 you a terror H157 to yourself, and to all your friends; H5307 and they shall fall H2719 by the sword H341 of their enemies, H5869 and your eyes H7200 shall see H5414 it; and I will give H3063 all Judah H3027 into the hand H4428 of the king H894 of Babylon, H1540 and he shall carry them captive H894 to Babylon, H5221 and shall kill H2719 them with the sword.

5 H5414 Moreover I will give H2633 all the riches H5892 of this city, H3018 and all its gains, H3366 and all the precious things H214 of it, yes, all the treasures H4428 of the kings H3063 of Judah H5414 will I give H3027 into the hand H341 of their enemies; H962 and they shall make them a prey, H3947 and take H935 them, and carry H894 them to Babylon.

6 H6583 You, Pashhur, H3427 and all who dwell H1004 in your house H3212 shall go H7628 into captivity; H935 and you shall come H894 to Babylon, H4191 and there you shall die, H6912 and there you shall be buried, H157 you, and all your friends, H5012 to whom you have prophesied H8267 falsely.

7 H3068 Yahweh, H6601 you have persuaded H6601 me, and I was persuaded; H2388 you are stronger H3201 than I, and have prevailed: H7814 I am become a laughing-stock H3117 all the day, H3932 every one mocks me.

8 H1767 For as often H1696 as I speak, H7121 I cry H2199 out; H7121 I cry, H2555 Violence H1697 and destruction! because the word H3068 of Yahweh H2781 is made a reproach H7047 to me, and a derision, H3117 all the day.

9 H559 If I say, H2142 I will not make mention H1696 of him, nor speak H8034 any more in his name, H3820 then there is in my heart H1197 as it were a burning H784 fire H6113 shut up H6106 in my bones, H3811 and I am weary H3557 with forbearing, H3201 and I can't.

10 H8085 For I have heard H1681 the defaming H7227 of many, H4032 terror H5439 on every side. H5046 Denounce, H5046 and we will denounce H582 him, say all my familiar H8104 friends, those who watch H6763 for my fall; H6601 perhaps he will be persuaded, H3201 and we shall prevail H3947 against him, and we shall take H5360 our revenge on him.

11 H3068 But Yahweh H1368 is with me as an awesome mighty H6184 one: H7291 therefore my persecutors H3782 shall stumble, H3201 and they shall not prevail; H3966 they shall be utterly H954 disappointed, H7919 because they have not dealt wisely, H5769 even with an everlasting H3639 dishonor H7911 which shall never be forgotten.

12 H3068 But, Yahweh H6635 of Armies, H974 who tests H6662 the righteous, H7200 who sees H3629 the heart H3820 and the mind, H7200 let me see H5360 your vengeance H1540 on them; for to you have I revealed H7379 my cause.

13 H7891 Sing H3068 to Yahweh, H1984 praise H3068 Yahweh; H5337 for he has delivered H5315 the soul H34 of the needy H3027 from the hand H7489 of evildoers.

14 H779 Cursed H3117 is the day H3205 in which I was born: H3117 don't let the day H517 in which my mother H3205 bore H1288 me be blessed.

15 H779 Cursed H376 is the man H1319 who brought news H1 to my father, H559 saying, H1121 A H2145 boy H3205 is born H8055 to you; making him very H8055 glad.

16 H376 Let that man H5892 be as the cities H3068 which Yahweh H2015 overthrew, H5162 and didn't repent: H8085 and let him hear H2201 a cry H1242 in the morning, H8643 and shouting H6256 at noontime;

17 H4191 because he didn't kill H7358 me from the womb; H517 and so my mother H6913 would have been my grave, H7358 and her womb H5769 always H2030 great.

18 H3318 Why came I forth H7358 out of the womb H7200 to see H5999 labor H3015 and sorrow, H3117 that my days H3615 should be consumed H1322 with shame?
