The word°
of Yahweh°
that°

to°
Jeremiah°
concerning°°
the dearth.° |
|
14:2
Judah{gr.Judea} has mourned, and her gates are emptied, and are darkened upon the earth; and the cry of Jerusalem is gone up. |
|
14:2
Judah°
mourneth,°°
and the gates°
thereof languish;°°
they are black°°
unto the ground;°
and the cry°
of Jerusalem°
is gone up.°° |
|
14:3
And her nobles have sent their little ones to the water: they came to the wells, and found no water: and brought back their vessels empty. |
|
14:3
And their nobles°
have sent°°
their little ones°
to the waters:°
they came°°
to°
the pits,°°°
[and] found°°
no°
water;°
they returned°°
with their vessels°
empty;°
they were ashamed°°
and confounded,°°
and covered°°
their heads.° |
|
14:4
And the labours of the land failed, because there was no rain: the husbandmen were ashamed, they covered their heads. |
|
14:4
Because°
the ground°
is chapt,°°
for°
there was°
no°
rain°
in the earth,°
the plowmen°
were ashamed,°°
they covered°°
their heads.° |
|
14:5
And hinds calved in the field, and forsook [it], because there was no grass. |
|
14:5
Yea,°
the hind°
also calved°°
in the field,°
and forsook°°
[it], because°
there was°
no°
grass.° |
|
14:6
The wild asses stood by the forests, and snuffed up the wind; their eyes failed, because there was no grass. |
|
14:6
And the wild asses°
did stand°°
in°
the high places,°
they snuffed up°°
the wind°
like dragons;°
their eyes°
did fail,°°
because°
[there was] no°
grass.° |
|
14:7 ¶
Our sins have risen up against us: O Lord, do thou for us for thine own sake; for our sins are many before thee; for we have sinned against thee. |
|
14:7 ¶
O Yahweh,°
though°
our iniquities°
testify°°
against us, do°°
thou [it] for thy name's°
sake:°°
for°
our backslidings°
are many;°°
we have sinned°°
against thee. |
|
14:8
O Lord, [thou art] the hope of Israel, and deliverest [us] in time of troubles; why art thou become as a sojourner upon the land, or as one born in the land, yet turning aside for a resting-place? |
|
14:8
O the hope°
of Israel,°
the saviour°°
thereof in time°
of trouble,°
why°
shouldest thou be°
as a stranger°
in the land,°
and as a wayfaring man°°
[that] turneth aside°°
to tarry°
for a night?°° |
|
14:9
Wilt thou be as a man asleep, or as a [strong] man that cannot save? yet thou art among us, O Lord, and thy name is called upon us; forget us not. |
|
14:9
Why°
shouldest thou be°
as a man°
astonied,°°
as a mighty man°
[that] cannot°°°
save?°°
yet thou,°
O Yahweh,°
[art] in the midst°
of us, and we are called°°
by thy name;°
leave°°°
us not.° |
|
14:10 ¶
Thus saith the Lord to this people, They have loved to wander, and they have not spared, therefore God has not prospered them; now will he remember their iniquity. |
|
14:10 ¶
Thus°
saith°°
Yahweh°
unto this°
people,°
Thus°
have they loved°°
to wander,°°
they have not°
refrained°°
their feet,°
therefore Yahweh°
doth not°
accept°°
them; he will now°
remember°°
their iniquity,°
and visit°°
their sins.° |
|
14:11
And the Lord said to me, Pray not for this people for [their] good: |
|
14:11
Then said°°
Yahweh°
unto°
me, Pray°°
not°
for°
this°
people°
for [their] good.° |
|
14:12
for though they fast, I will not hear their supplication; and though they offer whole-burnt-offerings and sacrifices, I will take no pleasure in them: for I will consume them with sword, and with famine, and with pestilence. |
|
14:12
When°
they fast,°°
I will not°
hear°°°
their cry;°
and when°
they offer°°
burnt offering°
and an oblation,°
I will not°
accept°°
them: but°
I°
will consume°°
them by the sword,°
and by the famine,°
and by the pestilence.° |
|
14:13 ¶
And I said, O [ever] living Lord! behold, their prophets prophesy, and say, Ye shall not see a sword, nor shall famine be among you; for I will give truth and peace on the land, and in this place. |
|
14:13 ¶
Then said°°
I, Ah,°
Adonai°
Yahweh!°
behold,°
the prophets°
say°°
unto them, Ye shall not°
see°°
the sword,°
neither°
shall ye have°
famine;°
but°
I will give°°
you assured°
peace°
in this°
place.° |
|
14:14
Then the Lord said to me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, and I commanded them not, and I spoke not to them: for they prophesy to you false visions, and divinations, and auguries, and devices of their own heart. |
|
14:14
Then Yahweh°
said°°
unto°
me, The prophets°
prophesy°°
lies°
in my name:°
I sent°°
them not,°
neither°
have I commanded°°
them, neither°
spake°°
unto°
them: they°
prophesy°°
unto you a false°
vision°
and divination,°
and a thing of nought,°°°
and the deceit°
of their heart.° |
|
14:15
Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning the prophets that prophesy lies in my name, and I sent them not, who say, Sword and famine shall not be upon this land; they shall die by a grievous death, and the prophets shall be consumed by famine. |
|
14:15
Therefore°
thus°
saith°°
Yahweh°
concerning°
the prophets°
that prophesy°°
in my name,°
and I°
sent°°
them not,°
yet they°
say,°°
Sword°
and famine°
shall not°
be°
in this°
land;°
By sword°
and famine°
shall those°
prophets°
be consumed.°° |
|
14:16
And the people to whom they prophesy, they also shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem, because of the sword and famine; and there shall be none to bury them: their wives also, and their sons, and their daughters [shall die thus]; and I will pour out their wickedness upon them. |
|
14:16
And the people°
to whom°
they°
prophesy°°
shall be°
cast out°°
in the streets°
of Jerusalem°
because°°
of the famine°
and the sword;°
and they shall have none°
to bury°°
them,°
them,°
their wives,°
nor their sons,°
nor their daughters:°
for I will pour°°°
their wickedness°
upon°
them. |
|
14:17 ¶
And thou shalt speak this word to them; Let your eyes shed tears day and night, and let them not cease: for the daughter of my people has been sorely bruised, and her plague is very grievous. |
|
14:17 ¶
Therefore thou shalt say°°°
this°
word°
unto°
them; Let mine eyes°
run down°°
with tears°
night°
and day,°
and let them not°
cease:°°
for°
the virgin°
daughter°
of my people°
is broken°°
with a great°
breach,°
with a very°
grievous°°
blow.° |
|
14:18
If I go forth into the plain, then behold the slain by the sword! and if I enter into the city, then behold the distress of famine! for priest and prophet have gone to a land which they knew not. |
|
14:18
If°
I go forth°°
into the field,°
then behold°
the slain°
with the sword!°
and if°
I enter°°
into the city,°
then behold°
them that are sick°
with famine!°
yea,°
both°
the prophet°
and°
the priest°
go about°°
into°
a land°
that they know°°
not.° |
|
14:19
Hast thou utterly rejected Judah{gr.Juda}? and has thy soul departed from Zion{gr.Sion}? wherefore has thou smitten us, and there is no healing for us? we waited for peace, but there was no prosperity; for a time of healing, and behold trouble! |
|
14:19
Hast thou utterly°°
rejected°°°
Judah?°
hath thy soul°
lothed°°
Zion?°
why°
hast thou smitten°°
us, and [there is] no°
healing°
for us? we looked°°
for peace,°
and [there is] no°
good;°
and for the time°
of healing,°
and behold°
trouble!° |
|
14:20
We know, O Lord, our sins, [and] the iniquities of our fathers: for we have sinned before thee. |
|
14:20
We acknowledge,°°
O Yahweh,°
our wickedness,°
[and] the iniquity°
of our fathers:°
for°
we have sinned°°
against thee. |
|
14:21
Refrain for thy name's sake, destroy not the throne of thy glory: remember, break not thy covenant with us. |
|
14:21
Do not°
abhor°°
[us], for thy name's°
sake,°°
do not°
disgrace°°
the throne°
of thy glory:°
remember,°°
break°°
not°
thy covenant°
with°
us. |
|
14:22
Is there any one among the idols of the Gentiles that can give rain? and will the sky yield his fulness [at their bidding]? Art not thou he? we will even wait on thee, O Lord: for thou hast made all these things. |
|
14:22
Are there°
[any] among the vanities°
of the Gentiles°
that can cause rain?°°
or°
can the heavens°
give°°
showers?°
[art] not°
thou°
he,°
O Yahweh°
our Elohim?°
therefore we will wait°°
upon thee: for°
thou°
hast made°°°
all°
these°
[things]. |
