World English Bible Classic
[1] Then Yahweh said to me, “Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind would not turn toward this people. Cast them out of my sight, and let them go out! [2] It will happen when they ask you, ‘Where shall we go out?’ then you shall tell them, ‘Yahweh says:
“Such as are for death, to death;
such as are for the sword, to the sword;
such as are for the famine, to the famine;
and such as are for captivity, to captivity.” ’
[3] “I will appoint over them four kinds,” says Yahweh: “the sword to kill, the dogs to tear, the birds of the sky, and the animals of the earth, to devour and to destroy. [4] I will cause them to be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh, the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.
[5] For who will have pity on you, Jerusalem?
Who will mourn you?
Who will come to ask of your welfare?
[6] You have rejected me,” says Yahweh.
“You have gone backward.
Therefore I have stretched out my hand against you
and destroyed you.
I am weary of showing compassion.
[7] I have winnowed them with a fan in the gates of the land.
I have bereaved them of children.
I have destroyed my people.
They didn’t return from their ways.
[8] Their widows are increased more than the sand of the seas.
I have brought on them against the mother of the young men a destroyer at noonday.
I have caused anguish and terrors to fall on her suddenly.
[9] She who has borne seven languishes.
She has given up the spirit.
Her sun has gone down while it was yet day.
She has been disappointed and confounded.
I will deliver their residue to the sword before their enemies,” says Yahweh.
[10] Woe is me, my mother, that you have borne me, a man of strife,
and a man of contention to the whole earth!
I have not lent, neither have men lent to me;
yet every one of them curses me.
[11] Yahweh said,
“Most certainly I will strengthen you for good.
Most certainly I will cause the enemy to make supplication to you in the time of evil
and in the time of affliction.
[12] Can one break iron,
even iron from the north, and bronze?
[13] I will give your substance and your treasures for a plunder without price,
and that for all your sins,
even in all your borders.
[14] I will make them to pass with your enemies into a land which you don’t know;
for a fire is kindled in my anger,
which will burn on you.”
[15] Yahweh, you know.
Remember me, visit me,
and avenge me of my persecutors.
You are patient, so don’t take me away.
Know that for your sake I have suffered reproach.
[16] Your words were found,
and I ate them.
Your words were to me a joy and the rejoicing of my heart,
for I am called by your name, Yahweh, God of Armies.
[17] I didn’t sit in the assembly of those who make merry and rejoice.
I sat alone because of your hand,
for you have filled me with indignation.
[18] Why is my pain perpetual,
and my wound incurable,
which refuses to be healed?
Will you indeed be to me as a deceitful brook,
like waters that fail?
[19] Therefore Yahweh says,
“If you return, then I will bring you again,
that you may stand before me;
and if you take out the precious from the vile,
you will be as my mouth.
They will return to you,
but you will not return to them.
[20] I will make you to this people a fortified bronze wall.
They will fight against you,
but they will not prevail against you;
for I am with you to save you
and to deliver you,” says Yahweh.
[21] “I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked,
and I will redeem you out of the hand of the terrible.”

[1] Then saidH559(QalImpf) the LordH3068 unto me, Though MosesH4872 and SamuelH8050 stoodH5975(QalImpf) beforeH6440 me, [yet] my mindH5315 [could] not [be] toward this people:H5971 cast [them] outH7971(PielImpv) of my sight,H6440 and let them go forth.H3318(QalImpf) [2] And it shall come to pass, if they sayH559(QalImpf) unto thee, Whither shall we go forth?H3318(QalImpf) then thou shalt tellH559(QalPerf) them, Thus saithH559(QalPerf) the Lord;H3068 Such as [are] for death,H4194 to death;H4194 and such as [are] for the sword,H2719 to the sword;H2719 and such as [are] for the famine,H7458 to the famine;H7458 and such as [are] for the captivity,H7628 to the captivity.H7628 [3] And I will appointH6485(QalPerf) over them fourH702 kinds,H4940 saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the Lord:H3068 the swordH2719 to slay,H2026(QalInf) and the dogsH3611 to tear,H5498(QalInf) and the fowlsH5775 of the heaven,H8064 and the beastsH929 of the earth,H776 to devourH398(QalInf) and destroy.H7843(HiphInf) [4] And I will causeH5414(QalPerf) them to be removedH2189(Qere) into all kingdomsH4467 of the earth,H776 becauseH1558 of ManassehH4519 the sonH1121 of HezekiahH3169 kingH4428 of Judah,H3063 for [that] which he didH6213(QalPerf) in Jerusalem.H3389 [5] For who shall have pityH2550(QalImpf) upon thee, O Jerusalem?H3389 or who shall bemoanH5110(QalImpf) thee? or who shall go asideH5493(QalImpf) to askH7592(QalInf) how thou doest?H7965 [6] Thou hast forsakenH5203(QalPerf) me, saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the Lord,H3068 thou art goneH3212(QalImpf) backward:H268 therefore will I stretch outH5186(HiphImpf) my handH3027 against thee, and destroyH7843(HiphImpf) thee; I am wearyH3811(NiphPerf) with repenting.H5162(NiphInf) [7] And I will fanH2219(QalImpf) them with a fanH4214 in the gatesH8179 of the land;H776 I will bereaveH7921(PielPerf) [them] of children, I will destroyH6(PielPerf) my people,H5971 [since] they returnH7725(QalPerf) not from their ways.H1870 [8] Their widowsH490 are increasedH6105(QalPerf) to me above the sandH2344 of the seas:H3220 I have broughtH935(HiphPerf) upon them against the motherH517 of the young menH970 a spoilerH7703(QalActPtc) at noonday:H6672 I have caused [him] to fallH5307(HiphPerf) upon it suddenly,H6597 and terrorsH928 upon the city.H5892 [9] She that hath borneH3205(QalActPtc) sevenH7651 languisheth:H535(PulaPerf) she hath given upH5301(QalPerf) the ghost;H5315 her sunH8121 is goneH935(QalPerf) down while [it was] yet day:H3119(Ketiv) she hath been ashamedH954(QalPerf) and confounded:H2659(QalPerf) and the residueH7611 of them will I deliverH5414(QalImpf) to the swordH2719 beforeH6440 their enemies,H341(QalActPtc) saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the Lord.H3068 [10] WoeH188 is me, my mother,H517 that thou hast borneH3205(QalPerf) me a manH376 of strifeH7379 and a manH376 of contentionH4066 to the whole earth!H776 I have neither lent on usury,H5383(QalPerf) nor men have lent to me on usury;H5383(QalPerf) [yet] every one of them doth curseH7043(PielPtc) me. [11] The LordH3068 said,H559(QalPerf) VerilyH3808 it shall be wellH2896 with thy remnant;H8281(PielPerf/Qere) verilyH518 I will cause the enemyH341(QalActPtc) to entreatH6293(HiphPerf) thee [well] in the timeH6256 of evilH7451 and in the timeH6256 of affliction.H6869 [12] Shall ironH1270 breakH7489(QalImpf) the northernH6828 ironH1270 and the steel?H5178 [13] Thy substanceH2428 and thy treasuresH214 will I giveH5414(QalImpf) to the spoilH957 without price,H4242 and [that] for all thy sins,H2403 even in all thy borders.H1366 [14] And I will make [thee] to passH5674(HiphPerf) with thine enemiesH341(QalActPtc) into a landH776 [which] thou knowestH3045(QalPerf) not: for a fireH784 is kindledH6919(QalPerf) in mine anger,H639 [which] shall burnH3344(HophImpf) upon you. [15] O Lord,H3068 thou knowest:H3045(QalPerf) rememberH2142(QalImpv) me, and visitH6485(QalImpv) me, and revengeH5358(NiphImpv) me of my persecutors;H7291(QalActPtc) take me not awayH3947(QalImpf) in thy longsuffering:H639 knowH3045(QalImpv) that for thy sake I have sufferedH5375(QalInf) rebuke.H2781 [16] Thy wordsH1697 were found,H4672(NiphPerf) and I did eatH398(QalImpf) them; and thy wordH1697 was unto me the joyH8342 and rejoicingH8057 of mine heart:H3824 for I am calledH7121(NiphPerf) by thy name,H8034 O LordH3068 GodH430 of hosts.H6635 [17] I satH3427(QalPerf) not in the assemblyH5475 of the mockers,H7832(PielPtc) nor rejoiced;H5937(QalImpf) I satH3427(QalPerf) aloneH910 becauseH6440 of thy hand:H3027 for thou hast filledH4390(PielPerf) me with indignation.H2195 [18] Why is my painH3511 perpetual,H5331 and my woundH4347 incurable,H605(QalPasPtc) [which] refusethH3985(PielPerf) to be healed?H7495(NiphInf) wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar,H391 [and as] watersH4325 [that] fail?H539(NiphPerf) [19] Therefore thus saithH559(QalPerf) the Lord,H3068 If thou return,H7725(QalImpf) then will I bring thee again,H7725(HiphImpf) [and] thou shalt standH5975(QalImpf) beforeH6440 me: and if thou take forthH3318(HiphImpf) the preciousH3368 from the vile,H2151(QalActPtc) thou shalt be as my mouth:H6310 let them returnH7725(QalImpf) unto thee; but returnH7725(QalImpf) not thou unto them. [20] And I will makeH5414(QalPerf) thee unto this peopleH5971 a fencedH1219(QalPasPtc) brasenH5178 wall:H2346 and they shall fightH3898(NiphPerf) against thee, but they shall not prevailH3201(QalImpf) against thee: for I [am] with thee to saveH3467(HiphInf) thee and to deliverH5337(HiphInf) thee, saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the Lord.H3068 [21] And I will deliverH5337(HiphPerf) thee out of the handH3027 of the wicked,H7451 and I will redeemH6299(QalPerf) thee out of the handH3709 of the terrible.H6184
