Jeremiah 21

KJV

1  The word1697 which834 came1961 unto413 Jeremiah3414 from4480 854 the LORD,3068 when king4428 Zedekiah6667 sent7971 unto413 him 853 Pashur6583 the son1121 of Melchiah,4441 and Zephaniah6846 the son1121 of Maaseiah4641 the priest,3548 saying,559

2  Inquire,1875 I pray thee,4994 of 853 the LORD3068 for1157 us; for3588 Nebuchadnezzar5019 king4428 of Babylon894 maketh war3898 against5921 us; if so be194 that the LORD3068 will deal6213 with854 us according to all3605 his wondrous works,6381 that he may go up5927 from4480 5921 us.

3  Then said559 Jeremiah3414 unto413 them, Thus3541 shall ye say559 to413 Zedekiah:6667

4  Thus3541 saith559 the LORD3068 God430 of Israel;3478 Behold,2009 I will turn back5437 853 the weapons3627 of war4421 that834 are in your hands,3027 wherewith834 ye859 fight3898 against 853 the king4428 of Babylon,894 and against the Chaldeans,3778 which besiege6696 5921 you without4480 2351 the walls,2346 and I will assemble622 them into413 the midst8432 of this2063 city.5892

5  And I myself589 will fight3898 against854 you with an outstretched5186 hand3027 and with a strong2389 arm,2220 even in anger,639 and in fury,2534 and in great1419 wrath.7110

6  And I will smite5221 853 the inhabitants3427 of this2063 city,5892 both man120 and beast:929 they shall die4191 of a great1419 pestilence.1698

7  And afterward,310 3651 saith5002 the LORD,3068 I will deliver5414 853 Zedekiah6667 king4428 of Judah,3063 and his servants,5650 and the people,5971 and such as are left7604 in this2063 city5892 from4480 the pestilence,1698 from4480 the sword,2719 and from4480 the famine,7458 into the hand3027 of Nebuchadnezzar5019 king4428 of Babylon,894 and into the hand3027 of their enemies,341 and into the hand3027 of those that seek1245 their life:5315 and he shall smite5221 them with the edge6310 of the sword;2719 he shall not3808 spare2347 5921 them, neither3808 have pity,2550 nor3808 have mercy.7355

8  And unto413 this2088 people5971 thou shalt say,559 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD;3068 Behold,2009 I set5414 before6440 you 853 the way1870 of life,2416 and the way1870 of death.4194

9  He that abideth3427 in this2063 city5892 shall die4191 by the sword,2719 and by the famine,7458 and by the pestilence:1698 but he that goeth out,3318 and falleth5307 to5921 the Chaldeans3778 that besiege6696 5921 you, he shall live,2421 and his life5315 shall be1961 unto him for a prey.7998

10  For3588 I have set7760 my face6440 against this2063 city5892 for evil,7451 and not3808 for good,2896 saith5002 the LORD:3068 it shall be given5414 into the hand3027 of the king4428 of Babylon,894 and he shall burn8313 it with fire.784

11  And touching the house1004 of the king4428 of Judah,3063 say, Hear8085 ye the word1697 of the LORD;3068

12  O house1004 of David,1732 thus3541 saith559 the LORD;3068 Execute1777 judgment4941 in the morning,1242 and deliver5337 him that is spoiled1497 out of the hand4480 3027 of the oppressor,6231 lest6435 my fury2534 go out3318 like fire,784 and burn1197 that none369 can quench3518 it, because4480 6440 of the evil7455 of your doings.4611

13  Behold,2009 I am against413 thee, O inhabitant3427 of the valley,6010 and rock6697 of the plain,4334 saith5002 the LORD;3068 which say,559 Who4310 shall come down5181 against5921 us? or who4310 shall enter935 into our habitations?4585

14  But I will punish6485 5921 you according to the fruit6529 of your doings,4611 saith5002 the LORD:3068 and I will kindle3341 a fire784 in the forest3293 thereof, and it shall devour398 all things3605 round about5439 it.

1 ὁ λόγος ὁ γενόμενος παρὰ κυρίου πρὸς Ιερεμιαν ὅτε ἀπέστειλεν πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ βασιλεὺς Σεδεκιας τὸν Πασχωρ υἱὸν Μελχιου καὶ Σοφονιαν υἱὸν Μαασαιου τὸν ἱερέα λέγων

2 ἐπερώτησον περὶ ἡμῶν τὸν κύριον ὅτι βασιλεὺς Βαβυλῶνος ἐφέστηκεν ἐφ᾽ ἡμᾶς εἰ ποιήσει κύριος κατὰ πάντα τὰ θαυμάσια αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀπελεύσεται ἀφ᾽ ἡμῶν

3 καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτοὺς Ιερεμιας οὕτως ἐρεῖτε πρὸς Σεδεκιαν βασιλέα Ιουδα

4 τάδε λέγει κύριος ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ μεταστρέφω τὰ ὅπλα τὰ πολεμικά ἐν οἷς ὑμεῖς πολεμεῖτε ἐν αὐτοῖς πρὸς τοὺς Χαλδαίους τοὺς συγκεκλεικότας ὑμᾶς ἔξωθεν τοῦ τείχους εἰς τὸ μέσον τῆς πόλεως ταύτης

5 καὶ πολεμήσω ἐγὼ ὑμᾶς ἐν χειρὶ ἐκτεταμένῃ καὶ ἐν βραχίονι κραταιῷ μετὰ θυμοῦ καὶ ὀργῆς καὶ παροργισμοῦ μεγάλου

6 καὶ πατάξω πάντας τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν τῇ πόλει ταύτῃ τοὺς ἀνθρώπους καὶ τὰ κτήνη ἐν θανάτῳ μεγάλῳ καὶ ἀποθανοῦνται

7 καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα οὕτως λέγει κύριος δώσω τὸν Σεδεκιαν βασιλέα Ιουδα καὶ τοὺς παῖδας αὐτοῦ καὶ τὸν λαὸν τὸν καταλειφθέντα ἐν τῇ πόλει ταύτῃ ἀπὸ τοῦ θανάτου καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ λιμοῦ καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς μαχαίρας εἰς χεῖρας ἐχθρῶν αὐτῶν τῶν ζητούντων τὰς ψυχὰς αὐτῶν καὶ κατακόψουσιν αὐτοὺς ἐν στόματι μαχαίρας οὐ φείσομαι ἐπ᾽ αὐτοῖς καὶ οὐ μὴ οἰκτιρήσω αὐτούς

8 καὶ πρὸς τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον ἐρεῖς τάδε λέγει κύριος ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ δέδωκα πρὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν τὴν ὁδὸν τῆς ζωῆς καὶ τὴν ὁδὸν τοῦ θανάτου

9 ὁ καθήμενος ἐν τῇ πόλει ταύτῃ ἀποθανεῖται ἐν μαχαίρᾳ καὶ ἐν λιμῷ καὶ ὁ ἐκπορευόμενος προσχωρῆσαι πρὸς τοὺς Χαλδαίους τοὺς συγκεκλεικότας ὑμᾶς ζήσεται καὶ ἔσται ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ εἰς σκῦλα καὶ ζήσεται

10 διότι ἐστήρικα τὸ πρόσωπόν μου ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν ταύτην εἰς κακὰ καὶ οὐκ εἰς ἀγαθά εἰς χεῖρας βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος παραδοθήσεται καὶ κατακαύσει αὐτὴν ἐν πυρί

11 ὁ οἶκος βασιλέως Ιουδα ἀκούσατε λόγον κυρίου

12 οἶκος Δαυιδ τάδε λέγει κύριος κρίνατε τὸ πρωὶ κρίμα καὶ κατευθύνατε καὶ ἐξέλεσθε διηρπασμένον ἐκ χειρὸς ἀδικοῦντος αὐτόν ὅπως μὴ ἀναφθῇ ὡς πῦρ ἡ ὀργή μου καὶ καυθήσεται καὶ οὐκ ἔσται ὁ σβέσων

13 ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ πρὸς σὲ τὸν κατοικοῦντα τὴν κοιλάδα Σορ τὴν πεδινὴν τοὺς λέγοντας τίς πτοήσει ἡμᾶς ἢ τίς εἰσελεύσεται πρὸς τὸ κατοικητήριον ἡμῶν

14 καὶ ἀνάψω πῦρ ἐν τῷ δρυμῷ αὐτῆς καὶ ἔδεται πάντα τὰ κύκλῳ αὐτῆς

Vul

1 Verbum quod factum est ad Jeremiam a Domino, quando misit ad eum rex Sedecias Phassur filium Melchiæ, et Sophoniam filium Maasiæ sacerdotem, dicens:

2 Interroga pro nobis Dominum, quia Nabuchodonosor, rex Babylonis, præliatur adversum nos: si forte faciat Dominus nobiscum secundum omnia mirabilia sua, et recedat a nobis.

3 Et dixit Jeremias ad eos: Sic dicetis Sedeciæ:

4 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israël: Ecce ego convertam vasa belli quæ in manibus vestris sunt, et quibus vos pugnatis adversum regem Babylonis et Chaldæos qui obsident vos in circuitu murorum: et congregabo ea in medio civitatis hujus.

5 Et debellabo ego vos in manu extenta, et in brachio forti, et in furore, et in indignatione, et in ira grandi.

6 Et percutiam habitatores civitatis hujus: homines et bestiæ pestilentia magna morientur.

7 Et post hæc, ait Dominus, dabo Sedeciam regem Juda, et servos ejus, et populum ejus, et qui derelicti sunt in civitate hac a peste, et gladio, et fame, in manu Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis, et in manu inimicorum eorum, et in manu quærentium animam eorum: et percutiet eos in ore gladii, et non flectetur, neque parcet, nec miserebitur.

8 Et ad populum hunc dices: Hæc dicit Dominus: Ecce ego do coram vobis viam vitæ, et viam mortis.

9 Qui habitaverit in urbe hac morietur gladio, et fame, et peste: qui autem egressus fuerit, et transfugerit ad Chaldæos qui obsident vos, vivet, et erit ei anima sua quasi spolium.

10 Posui enim faciem meam super civitatem hanc in malum, et non in bonum, ait Dominus: in manu regis Babylonis dabitur, et exuret eam igni.

11 Et domui regis Juda: [Audite verba Domini,

12 domus David.
Hæc dicit Dominus:
Judicate mane judicium,
et eruite vi oppressum de manu calumniantis,
ne forte egrediatur ut ignis indignatio mea,
et succendatur, et non sit qui extinguat,
propter malitiam studiorum vestrorum.

13 Ecce ego ad te, habitatricem vallis solidæ atque campestris,
ait Dominus:
qui dicitis: Quis percutiet nos?
et quis ingredietur domos nostras?

14 Et visitabo super vos juxta fructum studiorum vestrorum,
dicit Dominus:
et succendam ignem in saltu ejus,
et devorabit omnia in circuitu ejus.]
