Jeremiah 28 (WEBP)

[1] That same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, Hananiah the son of Azzur, the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to me in Yahweh’s house, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,
[2] “Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says, ‘I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.
[3] Within two full years I will bring again into this place all the vessels of Yahweh’s house that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place and carried to Babylon.
[4] I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, who went to Babylon,’ says Yahweh; ‘for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.’ ”
[5] Then the prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people who stood in Yahweh’s house,
[6] even the prophet Jeremiah said, “Amen! May Yahweh do so. May Yahweh perform your words which you have prophesied, to bring again the vessels of Yahweh’s house, and all those who are captives, from Babylon to this place.
[7] Nevertheless listen now to this word that I speak in your ears, and in the ears of all the people:
[8] The prophets who have been before me and before you of old prophesied against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war, of evil, and of pestilence.
[9] As for the prophet who prophesies of peace, when the word of the prophet happens, then the prophet will be known, that Yahweh has truly sent him.”
[10] Then Hananiah the prophet took the bar from off the prophet Jeremiah’s neck, and broke it.
[11] Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, “Yahweh says: ‘Even so I will break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from off the neck of all the nations within two full years.’ ” Then the prophet Jeremiah went his way.
[12] Then Yahweh’s word came to Jeremiah, after Hananiah the prophet had broken the bar from off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying,
[13] “Go, and tell Hananiah, saying, ‘Yahweh says, “You have broken the bars of wood, but you have made in their place bars of iron.”
[14] For Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel says, “I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they will serve him. I have also given him the animals of the field.” ’ ”
[15] Then the prophet Jeremiah said to Hananiah the prophet, “Listen, Hananiah! Yahweh has not sent you, but you make this people trust in a lie.
[16] Therefore Yahweh says, ‘Behold, I will send you away from off the surface of the earth. This year you will die, because you have spoken rebellion against Yahweh.’ ”
[17] So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh month.

Jeremiah 28 (KJVS)

[1] And it came to pass the same year H8141, in the beginning H7225 of the reign H4467 of Zedekiah H6667 king H4428 of Judah H3063, in the fourth H7243 year H8141, [and] in the fifth H2549 month H2320, [that] Hananiah H2608 the son H1121 of Azur H5809 the prophet H5030, which [was] of Gibeon H1391, spake H559 (8804) unto me in the house H1004 of the LORD H3068, in the presence H5869 of the priests H3548 and of all the people H5971, saying H559 (8800),
[2] Thus speaketh H559 (8804) the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635, the God H430 of Israel H3478, saying H559 (8800), I have broken H7665 (8804) the yoke H5923 of the king H4428 of Babylon H894.
[3] Within two full H3117 years H8141 will I bring again H7725 (8688) into this place H4725 all the vessels H3627 of the LORD’S H3068 house H1004, that Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894 took away H3947 (8804) from this place H4725, and carried H935 (8686) them to Babylon H894:
[4] And I will bring again H7725 (8688) to this place H4725 Jeconiah H3204 the son H1121 of Jehoiakim H3079 king H4428 of Judah H3063, with all the captives H1546 of Judah H3063, that went H935 (8802) into Babylon H894, saith H5002 (8803) the LORD H3068: for I will break H7665 (8799) the yoke H5923 of the king H4428 of Babylon H894.
[5] Then the prophet H5030 Jeremiah H3414 said H559 (8799) unto the prophet H5030 Hananiah H2608 in the presence H5869 of the priests H3548, and in the presence H5869 of all the people H5971 that stood H5975 (8802) in the house H1004 of the LORD H3068,
[6] Even the prophet H5030 Jeremiah H3414 said H559 (8799), Amen H543: the LORD H3068 do H6213 (8799) so: the LORD H3068 perform H6965 (8686) thy words H1697 which thou hast prophesied H5012 (8738), to bring again H7725 (8687) the vessels H3627 of the LORD’S H3068 house H1004, and all that is carried away captive H1473, from Babylon H894 into this place H4725.
[7] Nevertheless hear H8085 (8798) thou now this word H1697 that I speak H1696 (8802) in thine ears H241, and in the ears H241 of all the people H5971;
[8] The prophets H5030 that have been before H6440 me and before H6440 thee of old H5769 prophesied H5012 (8735) both against many H7227 countries H776, and against great H1419 kingdoms H4467, of war H4421, and of evil H7451, and of pestilence H1698.
[9] The prophet H5030 which prophesieth H5012 (8735) of peace H7965, when the word H1697 of the prophet H5030 shall come to pass H935 (8800), [then] H227 shall the prophet H5030 be known H3045 (8735), that the LORD H3068 hath truly H571 sent H7971 (8804) him.
[10] Then Hananiah H2608 the prophet H5030 took H3947 (8799) the yoke H4133 from off the prophet H5030 Jeremiah’s H3414 neck H6677, and brake H7665 (8799) it.
[11] And Hananiah H2608 spake H559 (8799) in the presence H5869 of all the people H5971, saying H559 (8800), Thus saith H559 (8804) the LORD H3068; Even so will I break H7665 (8799) the yoke H5923 of Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894 from the neck H6677 of all nations H1471 within the space of two full H3117 years H8141. And the prophet H5030 Jeremiah H3414 went H3212 (8799) his way H1870.
[12] Then the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came unto Jeremiah H3414 [the prophet], after H310 that Hananiah H2608 the prophet H5030 had broken H7665 (8800) the yoke H4133 from off the neck H6677 of the prophet H5030 Jeremiah H3414, saying H559 (8800),
[13] Go H1980 (8800) and tell H559 (8804) Hananiah H2608, saying H559 (8800), Thus saith H559 (8804) the LORD H3068; Thou hast broken H7665 (8804) the yokes H4133 of wood H6086; but thou shalt make H6213 (8804) for them yokes H4133 of iron H1270.
[14] For thus saith H559 (8804) the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635, the God H430 of Israel H3478; I have put H5414 (8804) a yoke H5923 of iron H1270 upon the neck H6677 of all these nations H1471, that they may serve H5647 (8800) Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894; and they shall serve H5647 (8804) him: and I have given H5414 (8804) him the beasts H2416 of the field H7704 also.
[15] Then said H559 (8799) the prophet H5030 Jeremiah H3414 unto Hananiah H2608 the prophet H5030, Hear H8085 (8798) now, Hananiah H2608; The LORD H3068 hath not sent H7971 (8804) thee; but thou makest this people H5971 to trust H982 (8689) in a lie H8267.
[16] Therefore thus saith H559 (8804) the LORD H3068; Behold, I will cast H7971 (8764) thee from off the face H6440 of the earth H127: this year H8141 thou shalt die H4191 (8801), because thou hast taught H1696 (8765) rebellion H5627 against the LORD H3068.
[17] So Hananiah H2608 the prophet H5030 died H4191 (8799) the same year H8141 in the seventh H7637 month H2320.

Jeremiah 28 (YLT)

[1] And it cometh to pass, in that year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, spoken unto me hath Hananiah son of Azur the prophet, who is of Gibeon, in the house of Jehovah, before the eyes of the priests, and all the people, saying,
[2] ‘Thus spake Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, saying, I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon;
[3] Within two years of days I am bringing back unto this place all the vessels of the house of Jehovah that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon hath taken from this place, and doth carry to Babylon,
[4] And Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and all the removed of Judah, who are entering Babylon, I am bringing back unto this place-an affirmation of Jehovah; for I do break the yoke of the king of Babylon.’
[5] And Jeremiah the prophet saith unto Hananiah the prophet, before the eyes of the priests, and before the eyes of all the people who are standing in the house of Jehovah,
[6] Yea, Jeremiah the prophet saith, ‘Amen! so may Jehovah do; Jehovah establish thy words that thou hast prophesied, to bring back the vessels of the house of Jehovah and all the removal from Babylon, unto this place.
[7] ‘Only, hear, I pray thee, this word that I am speaking in thine ears, and in the ears of all the people.
[8] The prophets who have been before me, and before thee, from of old, even they prophesy concerning many lands, and concerning great kingdoms, of battle, and of evil, and of pestilence.
[9] The prophet who doth prophesy of peace-by the coming in of the word of the prophet, known is the prophet that Jehovah hath truly sent him.’
[10] And Hananiah the prophet taketh the yoke from off the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, and breaketh it,
[11] And Hananiah speaketh before the eyes of all the people, saying, ‘Thus said Jehovah, Thus I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, within two years of days, from off the neck of all the nations;’ and Jeremiah the prophet goeth on his way.
[12] And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah after the breaking, by Hananiah the prophet, of the yoke from off the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, saying,
[13] ‘Go, and thou hast spoken unto Hananiah, saying, Thus said Jehovah, Yokes of wood thou hast broken, and I have made instead of them yokes of iron;
[14] For thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, A yoke of iron I have put on the neck of all these nations to serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and they have served him, and also the beast of the field I have given to him.’
[15] And Jeremiah the prophet saith unto Hananiah the prophet, ‘Hear, I pray thee, O Hananiah; Jehovah hath not sent thee, and thou hast caused this people to trust on falsehood.
[16] Therefore thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am casting thee from off the face of the ground; this year thou diest, for apostasy thou hast spoken concerning Jehovah.’
[17] And Hananiah the prophet dieth in that year, in the seventh month.
