Lexicon :: Strong's H4100 - mâ

Now the word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068 came ^H1961 to me saying ^H559, “What ^H4100 do you see ^H7200, Jeremiah ^H3414?” And I said ^H559, “I see ^H7200 a rod ^H4731 of an [fn]almond ^H8247 tree ^H8247.”

The word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068 came ^H1961 to me a second ^H8145 time ^H8145 saying ^H559, “What ^H4100 do you see ^H7200?” And I said ^H559, “I see ^H7200 a boiling ^H5301 pot ^H5518, facing ^H6440 away from the north ^H6828.”

“What ^H4100 injustice ^H5766 did your fathers ^H1 find ^H4672 in Me,

That they went ^H7368 far ^H7368 from Me

And walked ^H1980 after ^H310 vanity ^H1892 and became ^H1891 vain ^H1891?

“But now ^H6258 what ^H4100 are you doing on the road ^H1870 to Egypt ^H4714,

To drink ^H8354 the waters ^H4325 of the [fn]Nile ^H7883?

Or what ^H4100 are you doing on the road ^H1870 to Assyria ^H804,

To drink ^H8354 the waters ^H4325 of the [fn]River ^H5104?

“How ^H349 can you say ^H559, ‘I am not defiled ^H2930;

I have not walked ^H1980 after ^H310 the Baals ^H1168’?

Look ^H7200 at your way ^H1870 in the valley ^H1516!

Know ^H3045 what ^H4100 you have done ^H6213!

You are a swift ^H7031 young ^H1072 camel ^H1072 entangling ^H8308 her ways ^H1870,

“Why ^H4100 do you contend ^H7378 with Me?

You have all ^H3605 transgressed ^H6586 against Me,” declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068.

“How ^H4100 well ^H3190 you prepare ^H3190 your way ^H1870

To seek ^H1245 love ^H160!

Therefore ^H3651 even ^H1571 [fn]the wicked ^H7451 women ^H7451

You have taught ^H3925 your ways ^H1870.

“Why ^H4100 do you despise ^H2151 Him so ^H3966 much ^H3966

In changing ^H8132 your way ^H1870?

Also ^H1571, you will be put ^H954 to ^H954 shame ^H954 by Egypt ^H4714

As you were put ^H954 to ^H954 shame ^H954 by Assyria ^H804.

And you, O devastated ^H7703 one, what ^H4100 will you do ^H6213?

Although ^H3588 you dress ^H3847 in scarlet ^H8144,

Although ^H3588 you decorate ^H5710 yourself with ornaments ^H5716 of gold ^H2091,

Although ^H3588 you enlarge ^H7167 your eyes ^H5869 with paint ^H6320,

In vain ^H7723 you make ^H3302 yourself beautiful ^H3302.

Your [fn]lovers ^H5689 despise ^H3988 you;

They seek ^H1245 your life ^H5315.

“Behold ^H2009, I am bringing ^H935 a nation ^H1471 against ^H5921 you from afar ^H4801, O house ^H1004 of Israel ^H3478,” declares ^H5002 Yahweh ^H3068.

“It is an enduring ^H386 nation ^H1471;

It is an ancient ^H5769 nation ^H1471,

A nation ^H1471 whose tongue ^H3956 you do not know ^H3045,

Nor ^H3808 can you [fn]understand ^H8085 what ^H4100 they say ^H1696.

The prophets ^H5030 prophesy ^H5012 with lying ^H8267,

And the priests ^H3548 have dominion ^H7287 [fn]by their own hand ^H3027;

And My people ^H5971 love ^H157 it so ^H3651!

But what ^H4100 will you do ^H6213 at the end ^H319 of it?

“For what ^H4100 purpose ^H2088 does frankincense ^H3828 come ^H935 to Me from Sheba ^H7614

And the [fn]sweet ^H2896 cane ^H7070 from a distant ^H4801 land ^H776?

Your burnt ^H5930 offerings ^H5930 are not acceptable ^H7522,

And your sacrifices ^H2077 are not pleasing ^H6149 to Me.”

“I have given ^H7181 heed ^H7181 and heard ^H8085,

They have spoken ^H1696 what ^H3651 is ^H3651 not right ^H3651;

No ^H369 man ^H376 regretted ^H5162 his evil ^H7451,

Saying ^H559, ‘What ^H4100 have I done ^H6213?’

Everyone ^H3605 turned ^H7725 to his course ^H4794,

Like a horse ^H5483 charging ^H7857 into the battle ^H4421.

“The wise ^H2450 men ^H2450 are put ^H954 to ^H954 shame ^H954;

They are dismayed ^H2865 and captured ^H3920;

Behold ^H2009, they have rejected ^H3988 the word ^H1697 of Yahweh ^H3068,

And what ^H4100 kind of wisdom ^H2451 do they have?

Why ^H5921 H4100 are we sitting ^H3427 still ^H3427?

Gather ^H622 yourselves, and let us go ^H935 into the fortified ^H4013 cities ^H5892

And let us be silent ^H1826 there ^H8033

Because ^H3588 Yahweh ^H3068 our God ^H430 has silenced ^H1826 us

And given ^H8248 us [fn]poisoned ^H7219 water ^H4325 to ^H8248 drink ^H8248,

For we have sinned ^H2398 against Yahweh ^H3068.

Who ^H4310 is the wise ^H2450 man ^H376 that may understand ^H995 this ^H2088? And who is he to whom ^H834 the mouth ^H6310 of Yahweh ^H3068 has spoken ^H1696, that he may declare ^H5046 it? Why ^H5921 H4100 has the land ^H776 perished ^H6, turned ^H5327 into ruin ^H5327 like a desert ^H4057, so ^H4480 H1097 that no ^H1097 one ^H1097 passes ^H5674 through ^H5674?

“What ^H4100 possession has My beloved ^H3039 in My house ^H1004

When ^H3588 she has done ^H6213 many ^H7227 schemes ^H4209 of wickedness ^H4209?

Can the flesh ^H1320, which is set ^H6944 apart ^H6944 as ^H6944 holy ^H6944, take ^H5674 away ^H5674 from you your calamity ^H7451,

[fn]So ^H227 that you can exult ^H5937?”

“What ^H4100 will you say ^H559 when ^H3588 He appoints ^H6485 over ^H5921 you—

And you yourself ^H859 had taught ^H3925 them—

Former [fn]companions ^H441 to be head ^H7218 over ^H5921 you?

Will not pangs ^H2256 seize ^H270 you

Like ^H3644 a woman ^H802 in childbirth ^H3205?

“O Hope ^H4723 of Israel ^H3478,

Its Savior ^H3467 in time ^H6256 of distress ^H6869,

Why ^H4100 are You like a sojourner ^H1616 in the land ^H776

Or like a traveler ^H732 who has pitched ^H5186 his tent to lodge ^H3885 for ^H3885 the ^H3885 night ^H3885?

Why ^H4100 has my pain ^H3511 been ^H1961 perpetual ^H5331

And my wound ^H4347 incurable ^H605, refusing ^H3985 to be healed ^H7495?

Will You indeed ^H1961 be to me like ^H3644 a deceptive ^H391 stream

With water ^H4325 that is unreliable ^H539 H3808?

“Now when ^H3588 you tell ^H5046 this ^H2088 people ^H5971 all ^H3605 these ^H428 words ^H1697, they will say ^H559 to you, ‘For ^H5921 what ^H4100 reason ^H5921 H4100 has Yahweh ^H3068 declared ^H1696 all ^H3605 this ^H2088 great ^H1419 calamity ^H7451 against ^H5921 us? And what ^H4100 is our iniquity ^H5771, or what ^H4100 is our sin ^H2403 which ^H834 we have committed ^H2398 against Yahweh ^H3068 our God ^H430?’

Why ^H4100 did I ever ^H2088 come ^H3318 forth ^H3318 from the womb ^H7358

To look ^H7200 on trouble ^H5999 and sorrow ^H3015,

So that my days ^H3117 have been spent ^H3615 in shame ^H1322?

“Many ^H7227 nations ^H1471 will pass ^H5674 by this ^H2088 city ^H5892; and they will say ^H559 to one ^H376 another ^H7453, ‘Why ^H5921 H4100 has Yahweh ^H3068 done ^H6213 thus ^H3602 to this ^H2088 great ^H1419 city ^H5892?’

“You who inhabit ^H3427 Lebanon ^H3844,

Nested ^H7077 in the cedars ^H730,

How ^H4100 you will groan ^H584 when pangs ^H2256 come ^H935 upon you,

Pain ^H2427 like a woman in ^H3205 childbirth ^H3205!

“Now when ^H3588 this ^H2088 people ^H5971 or ^H176 the prophet ^H5030 or ^H176 a priest ^H3548 asks ^H7592 you, saying ^H559, ‘What ^H4100 is the [fn]oracle ^H4853 of Yahweh ^H3068?’ then you shall say ^H559 to them, ‘What ^H4100 oracle ^H4853?’ Yahweh ^H3068 declares ^H5002, ‘I will abandon ^H5203 you.’

‘Why ^H4100 do you cry ^H2199 out ^H2199 over ^H5921 your injury ^H7667?

Your pain ^H4341 is incurable ^H605.

Because ^H5921 your iniquity ^H5771 is numerous ^H7230

And your sins ^H2403 are ^H6105 mighty ^H6105,

I have done ^H6213 these ^H428 things ^H428 to you.

“Stand ^H5975 by the road ^H1870 and keep ^H6822 watch ^H6822,

O inhabitant ^H3427 of Aroer ^H6177;

Ask ^H7592 him who flees ^H5127 and her who escapes ^H4422

And say ^H559, ‘What ^H4100 has happened ^H1961?’

“How ^H4100 boastful ^H1984 you are about the valleys ^H6010!

Your valley ^H6010 is flowing ^H2100 away,

O faithless ^H7728 daughter ^H1323

Who trusts ^H982 in her treasures ^H214, saying,

‘Who ^H4310 will come ^H935 against ^H413 me?’
