[1] The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying, [2] “Stand in the gate of Yahweh’s house, and proclaim this word there, and say, ‘Hear Yahweh’s word, all you of Judah, who enter in at these gates to worship Yahweh.’ ” [3] Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel says, “Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place. [4] Don’t trust in lying words, saying, ‘Yahweh’s temple, Yahweh’s temple, Yahweh’s temple, are these.’ [5] For if you thoroughly amend your ways and your doings, if you thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbor; [6] if you don’t oppress the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow, and don’t shed innocent blood in this place, and don’t walk after other gods to your own hurt, [7] then I will cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from of old even forever more. [8] Behold, you trust in lying words that can’t profit. [9] Will you steal, murder, commit adultery, swear falsely, burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods that you have not known, [10] then come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, ‘We are delivered,’ that you may do all these abominations? [11] Has this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, I myself have seen it,” says Yahweh. [12] “But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I caused my name to dwell at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel. [13] Now, because you have done all these works,” says Yahweh, “and I spoke to you, rising up early and speaking, but you didn’t hear; and I called you, but you didn’t answer; [14] therefore I will do to the house which is called by my name, in which you trust, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Shiloh. [15] I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brothers, even the whole offspring§ of Ephraim. [16] “Therefore don’t pray for this people. Don’t lift up a cry or prayer for them or make intercession to me; for I will not hear you. [17] Don’t you see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem? [18] The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead the dough, to make cakes to the queen of the sky, and to pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke me to anger. [19] Do they provoke me to anger?” says Yahweh. “Don’t they provoke themselves, to the confusion of their own faces?” [20] Therefore the Lord Yahweh says: “Behold, my anger and my wrath will be poured out on this place, on man, on animal, on the trees of the field, and on the fruit of the ground; and it will burn and will not be quenched.” [21] Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel says: “Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices and eat meat. [22] For I didn’t speak to your fathers or command them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices; [23] but this thing I commanded them, saying, ‘Listen to my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people. Walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.’ [24] But they didn’t listen or turn their ear, but walked in their own counsels and in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward. [25] Since the day that your fathers came out of the land of Egypt to this day, I have sent to you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them. [26] Yet they didn’t listen to me or incline their ear, but made their neck stiff. They did worse than their fathers. [27] “You shall speak all these words to them, but they will not listen to you. You shall also call to them, but they will not answer you. [28] You shall tell them, ‘This is the nation that has not listened to Yahweh their God’s voice, nor received instruction. Truth has perished, and is cut off from their mouth.’ [29] Cut off your hair, and throw it away, and take up a lamentation on the bare heights; for Yahweh has rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath. [30] “For the children of Judah have done that which is evil in my sight,” says Yahweh. “They have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to defile it. [31] They have built the high places of Topheth, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, which I didn’t command, nor did it come into my mind. [32] Therefore behold, the days come”, says Yahweh, “that it will no more be called ‘Topheth’ or ‘The valley of the son of Hinnom’, but ‘The valley of Slaughter’; for they will bury in Topheth until there is no place to bury. [33] The dead bodies of this people will be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth. No one will frighten them away. [34] Then I will cause to cease from the cities of Judah and from the streets of Jerusalem the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride; for the land will become a waste.”

[5] For if ye throughlyH3190(HiphInf) amendH3190(HiphImpf) your waysH1870 and your doings;H4611 if ye throughlyH6213(QalInf) executeH6213(QalImpf) judgmentH4941 between a manH376 and his neighbour;H7453 [6] [If] ye oppressH6231(QalImpf) not the stranger,H1616 the fatherless,H3490 and the widow,H490 and shedH8210(QalImpf) not innocentH5355 bloodH1818 in this place,H4725 neither walkH3212(QalImpf) afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 to your hurt:H7451 [7] Then will I cause you to dwellH7931(PielPerf) in this place,H4725 in the landH776 that I gaveH5414(QalPerf) to your fathers,H1 forH5704 everH5769 and ever.H5769 [8] Behold, ye trustH982(QalActPtc) in lyingH8267 words,H1697 that cannot profit.H3276(HiphInf) [9] Will ye steal,H1589(QalInf) murder,H7523(QalInf) and commit adultery,H5003(QalInf) and swearH7650(NiphInf) falsely,H8267 and burn incenseH6999(PielInf) unto Baal,H1168 and walkH1980(QalInf) afterH310 otherH312 godsH430 whom ye knowH3045(QalPerf) not; [10] And comeH935(QalPerf) and standH5975(QalPerf) beforeH6440 me in this house,H1004 which is calledH7121(NiphPerf) by my name,H8034 and say,H559(QalPerf) We are deliveredH5337(NiphPerf) to doH6213(QalInf) all these abominations?H8441 [11] Is this house,H1004 which is calledH7121(NiphPerf) by my name,H8034 become a denH4631 of robbersH6530 in your eyes?H5869 Behold, even I have seenH7200(QalPerf) [it], saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the Lord.H3068 [12] But goH3212(QalImpv) ye now unto my placeH4725 which [was] in Shiloh,H7887 where I setH7931(PielPerf) my nameH8034 at the first,H7223 and seeH7200(QalImpv) what I didH6213(QalPerf) to it forH6440 the wickednessH7451 of my peopleH5971 Israel.H3478 [13] And now, because ye have doneH6213(QalInf) all these works,H4639 saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the Lord,H3068 and I spakeH1696(PielImpf) unto you, rising up earlyH7925(HiphInf) and speaking,H1696(PielInf) but ye heardH8085(QalPerf) not; and I calledH7121(QalImpf) you, but ye answeredH6030(QalPerf) not; [14] Therefore will I doH6213(QalPerf) unto [this] house,H1004 which is calledH7121(NiphPerf) by my name,H8034 wherein ye trust,H982(QalActPtc) and unto the placeH4725 which I gaveH5414(QalPerf) to you and to your fathers,H1 as I have doneH6213(QalPerf) to Shiloh.H7887 [15] And I will cast you outH7993(HiphPerf) of my sight,H6440 as I have cast outH7993(HiphPerf) all your brethren,H251 [even] the whole seedH2233 of Ephraim.H669 [16] Therefore prayH6419(HithImpf) not thou for this people,H5971 neither lift upH5375(QalImpf) cryH7440 nor prayerH8605 for them,H1157 neither make intercessionH6293(QalImpf) to me: for I will not hearH8085(QalActPtc) thee. [17] SeestH7200(QalActPtc) thou not what they doH6213(QalActPtc) in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 and in the streetsH2351 of Jerusalem?H3389 [18] The childrenH1121 gatherH3950(PielPtc) wood,H6086 and the fathersH1 kindleH1197(PielPtc) the fire,H784 and the womenH802 kneadH3888(QalActPtc) [their] dough,H1217 to makeH6213(QalInf) cakesH3561 to the queenH4446 of heaven,H8064 and to pour outH5258(HiphInf) drink offeringsH5262 unto otherH312 gods,H430 that they may provoke me to anger.H3707(HiphInf) [19] Do they provoke me to anger?H3707(HiphPtc) saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the Lord:H3068 [do they] not [provoke] themselves to the confusionH1322 of their own faces?H6440 [20] Therefore thus saithH559(QalPerf) the LordH136 God;H3069 Behold, mine angerH639 and my furyH2534 shall be poured outH5413(NiphPtc) upon this place,H4725 upon man,H120 and upon beast,H929 and upon the treesH6086 of the field,H7704 and upon the fruitH6529 of the ground;H127 and it shall burn,H1197(QalPerf) and shall not be quenched.H3518(QalImpf) [21] Thus saithH559(QalPerf) the LordH3068 of hosts,H6635 the GodH430 of Israel;H3478 PutH5595(QalImpv) your burnt offeringsH5930 unto your sacrifices,H2077 and eatH398(QalImpv) flesh.H1320 [22] For I spakeH1696(PielPerf) not unto your fathers,H1 nor commandedH6680(PielPerf) them in the dayH3117 that I brought them outH3318(HiphInf) of the landH776 of Egypt,H4714 concerningH1697 burnt offeringsH5930 or sacrifices:H2077 [23] But this thingH1697 commandedH6680(PielPerf) I them, saying,H559(QalInf) ObeyH8085(QalImpv) my voice,H6963 and I will be your God,H430 and ye shall be my people:H5971 and walkH1980(QalPerf) ye in all the waysH1870 that I have commandedH6680(PielImpf) you, that it may be wellH3190(QalImpf) unto you. [24] But they hearkenedH8085(QalPerf) not, nor inclinedH5186(HiphPerf) their ear,H241 but walkedH3212(QalImpf) in the counselsH4156 [and] in the imaginationH8307 of their evilH7451 heart,H3820 and went backward,H268 and not forward.H6440 [25] Since the dayH3117 that your fathersH1 came forth outH3318(QalPerf) of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 unto this dayH3117 I have even sentH7971(QalImpf) unto you all my servantsH5650 the prophets,H5030 dailyH3117 rising up earlyH7925(HiphInf) and sendingH7971(QalInf) [them]: [26] Yet they hearkenedH8085(QalPerf) not unto me, nor inclinedH5186(HiphPerf) their ear,H241 but hardenedH7185(HiphImpf) their neck:H6203 they did worseH7489(HiphPerf) than their fathers.H1 [27] Therefore thou shalt speakH1696(PielPerf) all these wordsH1697 unto them; but they will not hearkenH8085(QalImpf) to thee: thou shalt also callH7121(QalPerf) unto them; but they will not answerH6030(QalImpf) thee. [28] But thou shalt sayH559(QalPerf) unto them, This [is] a nationH1471 that obeyethH8085(QalPerf) not the voiceH6963 of the LordH3068 their God,H430 nor receivethH3947(QalPerf) correction:H4148 truthH530 is perished,H6(QalPerf) and is cut offH3772(NiphPerf) from their mouth.H6310 [29] Cut offH1494(QalImpv) thine hair,H5145 [O Jerusalem], and cast [it] away,H7993(HiphImpv) and take upH5375(QalImpv) a lamentationH7015 on high places;H8205 for the LordH3068 hath rejectedH3988(QalPerf) and forsakenH5203(QalImpf) the generationH1755 of his wrath.H5678 [30] For the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 have doneH6213(QalPerf) evilH7451 in my sight,H5869 saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the Lord:H3068 they have setH7760(QalPerf) their abominationsH8251 in the houseH1004 which is calledH7121(NiphPerf) by my name,H8034 to polluteH2930(PielInf) it. [31] And they have builtH1129(QalPerf) the high placesH1116 of Tophet,H8612 which [is] in the valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of Hinnom,H2011 to burnH8313(QalInf) their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 in the fire;H784 which I commandedH6680(PielPerf) [them] not, neither cameH5927(QalPerf) it into my heart.H3820 [32] Therefore, behold, the daysH3117 come,H935(QalActPtc) saithH5002(QalPasPtc) the Lord,H3068 that it shall no more be calledH559(NiphImpf) Tophet,H8612 nor the valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of Hinnom,H2011 but the valleyH1516 of slaughter:H2028 for they shall buryH6912(QalPerf) in Tophet,H8612 till there be noH369 place.H4725 [33] And the carcasesH5038 of this peopleH5971 shall be meatH3978 for the fowlsH5775 of the heaven,H8064 and for the beastsH929 of the earth;H776 and none shall fray [them] away.H2729(HiphPtc) [34] Then will I cause to ceaseH7673(HiphPerf) from the citiesH5892 of Judah,H3063 and from the streetsH2351 of Jerusalem,H3389 the voiceH6963 of mirth,H8342 and the voiceH6963 of gladness,H8057 the voiceH6963 of the bridegroom,H2860 and the voiceH6963 of the bride:H3618 for the landH776 shall be desolate.H2723
