Holy Name King James Version (KJV)

Jeremiah 23

1 He prophesieth a restoration of the scattered flock. 5 Christ shall rule and save them. 9 Against false prophets, 33 and mockers of the true prophets.

 23:1 ¶ Woe 1945 be unto the pastors 7462 z8802 that destroy 6 z8764 and scatter 6327 z8688 x853 the sheep 6629 of my pasture! 4830 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh. 3068

 23:2 Therefore x3651 thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 Yahweh 3068 Elohim 430 of Israel 3478 against x5921 the pastors 7462 z8802 that feed 7462 z8802 x853 my people; 5971 Ye x859 have scattered 6327 z8689 x853 my flock, 6629 and driven them away, 5080 z8686 and have not x3808 visited 6485 z8804 them: behold, x2009 I will visit 6485 z8802 upon x5921 you x853 the evil 7455 of your doings, 4611 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh. 3068

 23:3 And I x589 will gather 6908 z8762 x853 the remnant 7611 of my flock 6629 out of all x4480 x3605 countries 776 whither x834 x8033 I have driven 5080 z8689 them, and will bring them again 7725 z8689 x853 to x5921 their folds; 5116 and they shall be fruitful 6509 z8804 and increase. 7235 z8804

 23:4 And I will set up 6965 z8689 shepherds 7462 z8802 over x5921 them which shall feed 7462 z8804 them: and they shall fear 3372 z8799 no x3808 more, x5750 nor x3808 be dismayed, 2865 z8735 neither x3808 shall they be lacking, 6485 z8735 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh. 3068

 23:5 ¶ Behold, x2009 the days 3117 come, 935 z8802 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh, 3068 that I will raise 6965 z8689 unto David 1732 a righteous 6662 Branch, 6780 and a King 4428 shall reign 4427 z8804 and prosper, 7919 z8689 and shall execute 6213 z8804 judgment 4941 and justice 6666 in the earth. 776

 23:6 In his days 3117 Judah 3063 shall be saved, 3467 z8735 and Israel 3478 shall dwell 7931 z8799 safely: 983 and this x2088 [is] his name 8034 whereby x834 he shall be called, 7121 z8799 YAHWEH x3068 ZIDKENU. y3072 x6664

 23:7 Therefore, x3651 behold, x2009 the days 3117 come, 935 z8802 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh, 3068 that they shall no x3808 more x5750 say, 559 z8799 Yahweh 3068 liveth, 2416 which x834 brought up 5927 z8689 x853 the children 1121 of Israel 3478 out of the land 776 x4480 of Egypt; 4714

 23:8 But, x3588 x518 Yahweh 3068 liveth, 2416 which x834 brought up 5927 z8689 and which x834 led 935 z8689 x853 the seed 2233 of the house 1004 of Israel 3478 out of the north 6828 country, 776 x4480 and from all x4480 x3605 countries 776 whither x834 x8033 I had driven 5080 z8689 them; and they shall dwell 3427 z8804 in x5921 their own land. 127

 23:9 ¶ Mine heart 3820 within 7130 me is broken 7665 z8738 because of the prophets; 5030 all x3605 my bones 6106 shake; 7363 z8804 I am x1961 like a drunken 7910 man, 376 and like a man 1397 whom wine 3196 hath overcome, 5674 z8804 because 6440 x4480 of Yahweh, 3068 and because x4480 x6440 of the words 1697 of his holiness. 6944

 23:10 For x3588 the land 776 is full 4390 z8804 of adulterers; 5003 z8764 for x3588 because 6440 x4480 of swearing 423 the land 776 mourneth; 56 z8804 the pleasant places 4999 of the wilderness 4057 are dried up, 3001 z8804 and their course 4794 is x1961 evil, 7451 and their force 1369 [is] not x3808 right. x3651

 23:11 For x3588 both x1571 prophet 5030 and x1571 priest 3548 are profane; 2610 z8804 yea, x1571 in my house 1004 have I found 4672 z8804 their wickedness, 7451 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh. 3068

 23:12 Wherefore x3651 their way 1870 shall be x1961 unto them as slippery 2519 [ways] in the darkness: 653 they shall be driven on, 1760 z8735 and fall 5307 z8804 therein: for x3588 I will bring 935 z8686 evil 7451 upon x5921 them, [even] the year 8141 of their visitation, 6486 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh. 3068

 23:13 And I have seen 7200 z8804 folly 8604 in the prophets 5030 of Samaria; 8111 they prophesied 5012 z8694 in Baal, 1168 and caused x853 my people 5971 x853 Israel 3478 to err. 8582 z8686

 23:14 I have seen 7200 z8804 also in the prophets 5030 of Jerusalem 3389 an horrible thing: 8186 they commit adultery, 5003 z8800 and walk 1980 z8800 in lies: 8267 they strengthen 2388 z8765 also the hands 3027 of evildoers, 7489 z8688 that none 376 x1115 doth return 7725 z8804 from his wickedness: 7451 x4480 they are x1961 all x3605 of them unto me as Sodom, 5467 and the inhabitants 3427 z8802 thereof as Gomorrah. 6017

 23:15 Therefore x3651 thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 Yahweh 3068 Sabaoth 6635 concerning x5921 the prophets; 5030 Behold, x2009 I will feed 398 z8688 them with wormwood, 3939 and make them drink 8248 z8689 the water 4325 of gall: 7219 for x3588 from x4480 x854 the prophets 5030 of Jerusalem 3389 is profaneness 2613 gone forth 3318 z8804 into all x3605 the land. 776

 23:16 Thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 Yahweh 3068 Sabaoth, 6635 Hearken 8085 z8799 not x408 unto x5921 the words 1697 of the prophets 5030 that prophesy 5012 z8737 unto you: they make you vain: 1891 z8688 x853 they x1992 speak 1696 z8762 a vision 2377 of their own heart, 3820 [and] not x3808 out of the mouth 6310 x4480 of Yahweh. 3068

 23:17 They say y559 z8802 still 559 z8800 unto them that despise 5006 z8764 me, Yahweh 3068 hath said, 1696 z8765 Ye shall have x1961 peace; 7965 and they say 559 z8804 unto every one x3605 that walketh 1980 z8802 after the imagination 8307 of his own heart, 3820 No x3808 evil 7451 shall come 935 z8799 upon x5921 you.

 23:18 For x3588 who x4310 hath stood 5975 z8804 in the counsel 5475 of Yahweh, 3068 and hath perceived 7200 z8799 and heard 8085 z8799 x853 his word? 1697 who x4310 hath marked 7181 z8689 his word, 1697 and heard 8085 z8799 [it]?

 23:19 Behold, x2009 a whirlwind 5591 of Yahweh 3068 is gone forth 3318 z8804 in fury, 2534 even a grievous 2342 z8711 whirlwind: 5591 it shall fall grievously 2342 z8799 upon x5921 the head 7218 of the wicked. 7563

 23:20 The anger 639 of Yahweh 3068 shall not x3808 return, 7725 z8799 until x5704 he have executed, 6213 z8800 and till x5704 he have performed 6965 z8687 the thoughts 4209 of his heart: 3820 in the latter 319 days 3117 ye shall consider 995 z8709 it perfectly. 998

 23:21 I have not x3808 sent 7971 z8804 x853 these prophets, 5030 yet they x1992 ran: 7323 z8804 I have not x3808 spoken 1696 z8765 to x413 them, yet they x1992 prophesied. 5012 z8738

 23:22 But if x518 they had stood 5975 z8804 in my counsel, 5475 and had caused x853 my people 5971 to hear 8085 z8686 my words, 1697 then they should have turned 7725 z8686 them from their evil 7451 way, 1870 x4480 and from the evil 7455 x4480 of their doings. 4611

 23:23 [Am] I x589 an Elohim 430 at hand, 7138 x4480 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh, 3068 and not x3808 an Elohim 430 afar off? 7350 x4480

 23:24 Can x518 any 376 hide y5641 z8735 himself x5641 in secret places 4565 that I x589 shall not x3808 see 7200 z8799 him? saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh. 3068 Do not x3808 I x589 fill y4392 x4390 x853 heaven 8064 and earth? 776 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh. 3068

 23:25 I have heard 8085 z8804 x853 what x834 the prophets 5030 said, 559 z8804 that prophesy 5012 z8737 lies 8267 in my name, 8034 saying, 559 z8800 I have dreamed, 2492 z8804 I have dreamed. 2492 z8804

 23:26 How long x5704 x4970 shall [this] be 3426 in the heart 3820 of the prophets 5030 that prophesy 5012 z8737 lies? 8267 yea, [they are] prophets 5030 of the deceit 8649 of their own heart; 3820

 23:27 Which think 2803 z8802 to cause x853 my people 5971 to forget 7911 z8687 my name 8034 by their dreams 2472 which x834 they tell 5608 z8762 every man 376 to his neighbour, 7453 as x834 their fathers 1 have forgotten 7911 z8804 x853 my name 8034 for Baal. 1168

 23:28 The prophet 5030 that x834 x854 hath a dream, 2472 let him tell 5608 z8762 a dream; 2472 and he that x834 x854 hath my word, 1697 let him speak 1696 z8762 my word 1697 faithfully. 571 What x4100 [is] the chaff 8401 to x854 the wheat? 1250 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh. 3068

 23:29 [Is] not x3808 my word 1697 like 3541 as a fire? 784 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh; 3068 and like a hammer 6360 [that] breaketh 6327 z0 the rock 5553 in pieces? y6327 z8787

 23:30 Therefore, x3651 behold, x2009 I [am] against x5921 the prophets, 5030 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh, 3068 that steal 1589 z8764 my words 1697 every one 376 from x4480 x854 his neighbour. 7453

 23:31 Behold, x2009 I [am] against x5921 the prophets, 5030 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh, 3068 that use 3947 z8802 their tongues, 3956 and say, 5001 z8799 He saith. 5002 z8803

 23:32 Behold, x2009 I [am] against x5921 them that prophesy 5012 z8737 false 8267 dreams, 2472 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh, 3068 and do tell 5608 z8762 them, and cause x853 my people 5971 to err 8582 z8686 by their lies, 8267 and by their lightness; 6350 yet I x595 sent 7971 z8804 them not, x3808 nor x3808 commanded 6680 z8765 them: therefore they shall not x3808 profit y3276 z8686 this people y5971 at all, 3276 z8687 x5971 x2088 saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh. 3068

 23:33 ¶ And when x3588 this x2088 people, 5971 or x176 the prophet, 5030 or x176 a priest, 3548 shall ask 7592 z8799 thee, saying, 559 z8800 What x4100 [is] the burden 4853 of Yahweh? 3068 thou shalt then say 559 z8804 unto x413 them, x853 What x4100 burden? 4853 I will even forsake 5203 z8804 you, saith 5002 z8803 Yahweh. 3068

 23:34 And [as for] the prophet, 5030 and the priest, 3548 and the people, 5971 that x834 shall say, 559 z8799 The burden 4853 of Yahweh, 3068 I will even punish 6485 z8804 x5921 that x1931 man 376 and his house. 1004

 23:35 Thus x3541 shall ye say 559 z8799 every one 376 to x5921 his neighbour, 7453 and every one 376 to x413 his brother, 251 What x4100 hath Yahweh 3068 answered? 6030 z8804 and, What x4100 hath Yahweh 3068 spoken? 1696 z8765

 23:36 And the burden 4853 of Yahweh 3068 shall ye mention 2142 z8799 no x3808 more: x5750 for x3588 every man's 376 word 1697 shall be x1961 his burden; 4853 for ye have perverted 2015 z8804 x853 the words 1697 of the living 2416 Elohim, 430 of Yahweh 3068 Sabaoth 6635 our Elohim. 430

 23:37 Thus x3541 shalt thou say 559 z8799 to x413 the prophet, 5030 What x4100 hath Yahweh 3068 answered 6030 z8804 thee? and, What x4100 hath Yahweh 3068 spoken? 1696 z8765

 23:38 But y518 since x518 ye say, 559 z8799 The burden 4853 of Yahweh; 3068 therefore x3651 thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 Yahweh; 3068 Because x3282 ye say 559 z8800 x853 this x2088 word, 1697 The burden 4853 of Yahweh, 3068 and I have sent 7971 z8799 unto x413 you, saying, 559 z8800 Ye shall not x3808 say, 559 z8799 The burden 4853 of Yahweh; 3068

 23:39 Therefore, x3651 behold, x2009 I, even I, will utterly y5377 z8800 forget 5382 z8804 you, and I will forsake 5203 z8804 you, and the city 5892 that x834 I gave 5414 z8804 you and your fathers, 1 [and cast you] out of x4480 x5921 my presence: 6440

 23:40 And I will bring 5414 z8804 an everlasting 5769 reproach 2781 upon x5921 you, and a perpetual 5769 shame, 3640 which x834 shall not x3808 be forgotten. 7911 z8735
