H8085
Hear
[H8798]
H1697
ye the words
H1285
of this covenant
H1696
, and speak
[H8765]
H376
unto the men
H3063
of Judah
H3427
, and to the inhabitants
[H8802]
H3389
of Jerusalem;
3
H559
And say
[H8804]
H559
thou unto them, Thus saith
[H8804]
H3068
the LORD
H430
God
H3478
of Israel
H779
; Cursed
[H8803]
H376
be the man
H8085
that obeyeth
[H8799]
H1697
not the words
H1285
of this covenant,
4
H6680
Which I commanded
[H8765]
H1
your fathers
H3117
in the day
H3318
that I brought them forth
[H8687]
H776
out of the land
H4714
of Egypt
H1270
, from the iron
H3564
furnace
H559
, saying
[H8800]
H8085
, Obey
[H8798]
H6963
my voice
H6213
, and do
[H8804]
H6680
them, according to all which I command
[H8762]
H5971
you: so shall ye be my people
H430
, and I will be your God:
5
H6965
That I may perform
[H8687]
H7621
the oath
H7650
which I have sworn
[H8738]
H1
unto your fathers
H5414
, to give
[H8800]
H776
them a land
H2100
flowing
[H8802]
H2461
with milk
H1706
and honey
H3117
, as it is this day
H6030
. Then answered
[H8799]
H559
I, and said
[H8799]
H543
, So be it
H3068
, O LORD.
6
H3068
Then the LORD
H559
said
[H8799]
H7121
unto me, Proclaim
[H8798]
H1697
all these words
H5892
in the cities
H3063
of Judah
H2351
, and in the streets
H3389
of Jerusalem
H559
, saying
[H8800]
H8085
, Hear
[H8798]
H1697
ye the words
H1285
of this covenant
H6213
, and do
[H8804]
them.
7
H5749
For I earnestly
[H8687]
H5749
protested
[H8689]
H1
unto your fathers
H3117
in the day
H5927
that I brought them up
[H8687]
H776
out of the land
H4714
of Egypt
H3117
, even unto this day
H7925
, rising early
[H8687]
H5749
and protesting
[H8687]
H559
, saying
[H8800]
H8085
, Obey
[H8798]
H6963
my voice.
8
H8085
Yet they obeyed
[H8804]
H5186
not, nor inclined
[H8689]
H241
their ear
H3212
, but walked
[H8799]
H376
every one
H8307
in the imagination
H7451
of their evil
H3820
heart
H935
: therefore I will bring
[H8686]
H1697
upon them all the words
H1285
of this covenant
H6680
, which I commanded
[H8765]
H6213
them to do
[H8800]
H6213
; but they did
[H8804]
them not.
9
H3068
And the LORD
H559
said
[H8799]
H7195
unto me, A conspiracy
H4672
is found
[H8738]
H376
among the men
H3063
of Judah
H3427
, and among the inhabitants
[H8802]
H3389
of Jerusalem.
10
H7725
They are turned back
[H8804]
H5771
to the iniquities
H7223
of their forefathers
H1
H3985
, which refused
[H8765]
H8085
to hear
[H8800]
H1697
my words
H1980
; and they went
[H8804]
H310
after
H312
other
H430
gods
H5647
to serve
[H8800]
H1004
them: the house
H3478
of Israel
H1004
and the house
H3063
of Judah
H6565
have broken
[H8689]
H1285
my covenant
H3772
which I made
[H8804]
H1
with their fathers.
11
H559
Therefore thus saith
[H8804]
H3068
the LORD
H935
, Behold, I will bring
[H8688]
H7451
evil
H3201
upon them, which they shall not be able
[H8799]
H3318
to escape
[H8800]
H2199
; and though they shall cry
[H8804]
H8085
unto me, I will not hearken
[H8799]
unto them.
12
H5892
Then shall the cities
H3063
of Judah
H3427
and inhabitants
[H8802]
H3389
of Jerusalem
H1980
go
[H8804]
H2199
, and cry
[H8804]
H430
unto the gods
H6999
unto whom they offer incense
[H8764]
H3467
: but they shall not save
[H8686]
H3467
them at all
[H8687]
H6256
in the time
H7451
of their trouble.
13
H4557
For according to the number
H5892
of thy cities
H430
were thy gods
H3063
, O Judah
H4557
; and according to the number
H2351
of the streets
H3389
of Jerusalem
H7760
have ye set up
[H8804]
H4196
altars
H1322
to that shameful thing
H4196
, even altars
H6999
to burn incense
[H8763]
H1168
unto Baal.
14
H6419
Therefore pray
[H8691]
H5971
not thou for this people
H5375
, neither lift up
[H8799]
H7440
a cry
H8605
or prayer
H8085
for them: for I will not hear
[H8802]
H6256
them in the time
H7121
that they cry
[H8800]
H7451
unto me for their trouble.
15
H3039
What hath my beloved
H1004
to do in mine house
H6213
, seeing she hath wrought
[H8800]
H4209
lewdness
H7227
with many
H6944
, and the holy
H1320
flesh
H5674
is passed
[H8799]
H7451
from thee? when thou doest evil
H5937
, then thou rejoicest
[H8799]
.
16
H3068
The LORD
H7121
called
[H8804]
H8034
thy name
H7488
, A green
H2132
olive tree
H3303
, fair
H8389
, and of goodly
H6529
fruit
H6963
: with the noise
H1419
of a great
H1999
tumult
H3341
he hath kindled
[H8689]
H784
fire
H1808
upon it, and the branches
H7489
of it are broken
[H8804]
.
17
H3068
For the LORD
H6635
of hosts
H5193
, that planted
[H8802]
H1696
thee, hath pronounced
[H8765]
H7451
evil
H1558
against thee, for
H7451
the evil
H1004
of the house
H3478
of Israel
H1004
and of the house
H3063
of Judah
H6213
, which they have done
[H8804]
H3707
against themselves to provoke me to anger
[H8687]
H6999
in offering incense
[H8763]
H1168
unto Baal.
18
H3068
And the LORD
H3045
hath given me knowledge
[H8799]
H3045
of it, and I know
[H8689]
H7200
it : then thou shewedst
[H8689]
H4611
me their doings.
19
H3532
But I was like a lamb
H441
or an ox
H2986
that is brought
[H8714]
H2873
to the slaughter
[H8800]
H3045
; and I knew
[H8804]
H2803
not that they had devised
[H8804]
H4284
devices
H7843
against me, saying, Let us destroy
[H8686]
H6086
the tree
H3899
with the fruit
H3772
thereof, and let us cut him off
[H8799]
H776
from the land
H2416
of the living
H8034
, that his name
H2142
may be no more remembered
[H8735]
.
20
H3068
But, O LORD
H6635
of hosts
H8199
, that judgest
[H8802]
H6664
righteously
H974
, that triest
[H8802]
H3629
the reins
H3820
and the heart
H7200
, let me see
[H8799]
H5360
thy vengeance
H1540
on them: for unto thee have I revealed
[H8765]
H7379
my cause.
21
H559
Therefore thus saith
[H8804]
H3068
the LORD
H582
of the men
H6068
of Anathoth
H1245
, that seek
[H8764]
H5315
thy life
H559
, saying
[H8800]
H5012
, Prophesy
[H8735]
H8034
not in the name
H3068
of the LORD
H4191
, that thou die
[H8799]
H3027
not by our hand:
