Page 1 / 2 (Jer 2:30–Jer 43:10)
I have struck down your children in vain;
they would not accept discipline.
Your own sword has devoured your prophets
like a ravaging lion.
“ ‘Return, you faithless children — this is the LORD’s declaration — for I am your master,[fn] and I will take you, one from a city and two from a family, and I will bring you to Zion.
LORD, don’t your eyes look for faithfulness?
You have struck them, but they felt no pain.
You finished them off,
but they refused to accept discipline.
They made their faces harder than rock,
and they refused to return.
“Therefore, declare to them, ‘This is the nation that would not listen to the LORD their God and would not accept discipline. Truth[fn] has perished — it has disappeared from their mouths.
Now hear the word of the LORD, you women.
Pay attention to[fn] the words from his mouth.
Teach your daughters a lament
and one another a dirge,
A long time later the LORD said to me, “Go at once to the Euphrates and get the underwear that I commanded you to hide there.”
So I went to the Euphrates and dug up the underwear and got it from the place where I had hidden it, but it was ruined — of no use at all.
You know, LORD;
remember me and take note of me.
Avenge me against my persecutors.
In your patience,[fn] don’t take me away.
Know that I suffer disgrace for your honor.
“They wouldn’t listen or pay attention but became obstinate, not listening or accepting discipline.
“I will give away all the wealth of this city, all its products and valuables. Indeed, I will hand all the treasures of the kings of Judah over to their enemies. They will plunder them, seize them, and carry them off to Babylon.
For I have heard the gossip of many people,
“Terror is on every side!
Report him; let’s report him! ”
Everyone I trusted[fn] watches for my fall.
“Perhaps he will be deceived
so that we might prevail against him
and take our vengeance on him.”
“I am against the prophets” — the LORD’s declaration — “who use their own tongues to make a declaration.
“I am going to send for all the families of the north’ — this is the LORD’s declaration — ‘and send for my servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and I will bring them against this land, against its residents, and against all these surrounding nations, and I will completely destroy them and make them an example of horror and scorn, and ruins forever.
This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, said to me: “Take this cup of the wine of wrath from my hand and make all the nations to whom I am sending you drink from it.
So I took the cup from the LORD’s hand and made all the nations to whom the LORD sent me drink from it.
“If[fn] they refuse to accept the cup from your hand and drink, you are to say to them, ‘This is what the LORD of Armies says: You must drink!
those King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon did not take when he deported Jeconiah[fn] son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, from Jerusalem to Babylon along with all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem.
“Within two years I will restore to this place all the articles of the LORD’s temple that King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon took from here and transported to Babylon.
The prophet Hananiah then took the yoke bar from the neck of the prophet Jeremiah and broke it.
“Find wives for yourselves, and have sons and daughters. Find wives for your sons and give your daughters to men in marriage so that they may bear sons and daughters. Multiply there; do not decrease.
“Based on what happens to them, all the exiles of Judah who are in Babylon will create a curse that says, ‘May the LORD make you like Zedekiah and Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire! ’
“I took the purchase agreement — the sealed copy with its terms and conditions and the open copy —
“‘This is what the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: Take these scrolls — this purchase agreement with the sealed copy and this open copy — and put them in an earthen storage jar so they will last a long time.
“They have turned their backs to me and not their faces. Though I taught them time and time again,[fn] they do not listen and receive discipline.
“then I might also reject the descendants of Jacob and of my servant David. That is, I would not take rulers from his descendants to rule over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. But in fact, I will restore their fortunes[fn] and have compassion on them.”
So I took Jaazaniah son of Jeremiah, son of Habazziniah, and his brothers and all his sons — the entire house of the Rechabites —
“This is what the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: Go, say to the men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem, ‘Will you not accept discipline by listening to my words? — this is the LORD’s declaration.
“Take a scroll, and write on it all the words I have spoken to you concerning Israel, Judah, and all the nations from the time I first spoke to you during Josiah’s reign until today.
Then all the officials sent word to Baruch through Jehudi son of Nethaniah, son of Shelemiah, son of Cushi, saying, “Bring the scroll that you read in the hearing of the people, and come.” So Baruch son of Neriah took the scroll and went to them.
The king sent Jehudi to get the scroll, and he took it from the chamber of Elishama the scribe. Jehudi then read it in the hearing of the king and all the officials who were standing by the king.
Then the king commanded Jerahmeel the king’s son, Seraiah son of Azriel, and Shelemiah son of Abdeel to seize the scribe Baruch and the prophet Jeremiah, but the LORD hid them.
“Take another scroll, and once again write on it the original words that were on the original scroll that King Jehoiakim of Judah burned.
Then Jeremiah took another scroll and gave it to Baruch son of Neriah, the scribe, and he wrote on it at Jeremiah’s dictation[fn] all the words of the scroll that Jehoiakim, Judah’s king, had burned in the fire. And many other words like them were added.
King Zedekiah later sent for him and received him, and in his house privately asked him, “Is there a word from the LORD? ”
“There is,” Jeremiah responded. He continued, “You will be handed over to the king of Babylon.”
So they took Jeremiah and dropped him into the cistern of Malchiah the king’s son, which was in the guard’s courtyard, lowering Jeremiah with ropes. There was no water in the cistern, only mud, and Jeremiah sank in the mud.
So the king commanded Ebed-melech, the Cushite, “Take from here thirty men under your authority[fn] and pull the prophet Jeremiah up from the cistern before he dies.”
King Zedekiah sent for the prophet Jeremiah and received him at the third entrance of the LORD’s temple. The king said to Jeremiah, “I am going to ask you something; don’t hide anything from me.”
However, the Chaldean army pursued them and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho. They arrested him and brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar, Babylon’s king, at Riblah in the land of Hamath. The king passed sentence on him there.
“Take him and look after him. Don’t do him any harm, but do for him whatever he says.”
had Jeremiah brought from the guard’s courtyard and turned him over to Gedaliah son of Ahikam, son of Shaphan, to take him home. So he settled among his own people.
This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD after Nebuzaradan, captain of the guards, released him at Ramah. When he found him, he was bound in chains with all the exiles of Jerusalem and Judah who were being exiled to Babylon.
The captain of the guards took Jeremiah and said to him, “The LORD your God decreed this disaster on this place,
they took all their men and went to fight with Ishmael son of Nethaniah. They found him by the great pool in Gibeon.
Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the armies with him then took from Mizpah all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael son of Nethaniah after Ishmael had killed Gedaliah son of Ahikam — men, soldiers, women, children, and court officials whom he brought back from Gibeon.
Instead, Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the armies led away the whole remnant of Judah, those who had returned to stay in the land of Judah from all the nations where they had been banished.
