Jeremiah 46 (WEBP)

[1] Yahweh’s word which came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations.
[2] Of Egypt: concerning the army of Pharaoh Necoh king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates in Carchemish, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah.
[3] “Prepare the buckler and shield, and draw near to battle!
[4] Harness the horses, and get up, you horsemen, and stand up with your helmets. Polish the spears, put on the coats of mail.
[5] Why have I seen it? They are dismayed and are turned backward. Their mighty ones are beaten down, have fled in haste, and don’t look back. Terror is on every side,” says Yahweh.
[6] “Don’t let the swift flee away, nor the mighty man escape. In the north by the river Euphrates they have stumbled and fallen.
[7] “Who is this who rises up like the Nile, like rivers whose waters surge?
[8] Egypt rises up like the Nile, like rivers whose waters surge. He says, ‘I will rise up. I will cover the earth. I will destroy cities and its inhabitants.’
[9] Go up, you horses! Rage, you chariots! Let the mighty men go out: Cush and Put, who handle the shield; and the Ludim, who handle and bend the bow.
[10] For that day is of the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge himself of his adversaries. The sword will devour and be satiated, and will drink its fill of their blood; for the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, has a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.
[11] Go up into Gilead, and take balm, virgin daughter of Egypt. You use many medicines in vain. There is no healing for you.
[12] The nations have heard of your shame, and the earth is full of your cry; for the mighty man has stumbled against the mighty, they both fall together.”
[13] The word that Yahweh spoke to Jeremiah the prophet, how that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon should come and strike the land of Egypt:
[14] “Declare in Egypt, publish in Migdol, and publish in Memphis and in Tahpanhes; say, ‘Stand up, and prepare, for the sword has devoured around you.’
[15] Why are your strong ones swept away? They didn’t stand, because Yahweh pushed them.
[16] He made many to stumble. Yes, they fell on one another. They said, ‘Arise! Let’s go again to our own people, and to the land of our birth, from the oppressing sword.’
[17] They cried there, ‘Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he has let the appointed time pass by.’
[18] “As I live,” says the King, whose name is Yahweh of Armies, “surely like Tabor among the mountains, and like Carmel by the sea, so he will come.
[19] You daughter who dwells in Egypt, furnish yourself to go into captivity; for Memphis will become a desolation, and will be burned up, without inhabitant.
[20] “Egypt is a very beautiful heifer; but destruction out of the north has come. It has come.
[21] Also her hired men in the middle of her are like calves of the stall, for they also are turned back. They have fled away together. They didn’t stand, for the day of their calamity has come on them, the time of their visitation.
[22] Its sound will go like the serpent, for they will march with an army, and come against her with axes, as wood cutters.
[23] They will cut down her forest,” says Yahweh, “though it can’t be searched; because they are more than the locusts, and are innumerable.
[24] The daughter of Egypt will be disappointed; she will be delivered into the hand of the people of the north.”
[25] Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I will punish Amon of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with her gods and her kings, even Pharaoh, and those who trust in him.
[26] I will deliver them into the hand of those who seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants. Afterwards it will be inhabited, as in the days of old,” says Yahweh.
[27] “But don’t you be afraid, Jacob my servant. Don’t be dismayed, Israel; for, behold, I will save you from afar, and your offspring from the land of their captivity. Jacob will return, and will be quiet and at ease. No one will make him afraid.
[28] Don’t be afraid, O Jacob my servant,” says Yahweh, “for I am with you; for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have driven you, but I will not make a full end of you, but I will correct you in measure, and will in no way leave you unpunished.”

[1] The word of the Lord which came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Gentiles;
[2] Against Egypt, against the army of Pharaohnecho king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates in Carchemish, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote () in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah.
[3] Order () ye the buckler and shield, and draw near () to battle.
[4] Harness () the horses; and get up, () ye horsemen, and stand forth () with [your] helmets; furbish () the spears, [and] put on () the brigandines.
[5] Wherefore have I seen () them dismayed [and] turned () away back? and their mighty ones are beaten down, () and are fled () apace, and look not back: () [for] fear [was] round about, saith () the Lord.
[6] Let not the swift flee away, () nor the mighty man escape; () they shall stumble, () and fall () toward the north by the river Euphrates.
[7] Who [is] this [that] cometh up () as a flood, whose waters are moved () as the rivers?
[8] Egypt riseth up () like a flood, and [his] waters are moved () like the rivers; and he saith, () I will go up, () [and] will cover () the earth; I will destroy () the city and the inhabitants () thereof.
[9] Come up, () ye horses; and rage, () ye chariots; and let the mighty men come forth; () the Ethiopians and the Libyans, that handle () the shield; and the Lydians, that handle () [and] bend () the bow.
[10] For this [is] the day of the Lord God of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge () him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour, () and it shall be satiate () and made drunk () with their blood: for the Lord God of hosts hath a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.
[11] Go up () into Gilead, and take () balm, O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in vain shalt thou use many () medicines; [for] thou shalt not be cured.
[12] The nations have heard () of thy shame, and thy cry hath filled () the land: for the mighty man hath stumbled () against the mighty, [and] they are fallen () both together.
[13] The word that the Lord spake () to Jeremiah the prophet, how Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon should come () [and] smite () the land of Egypt.
[14] Declare () ye in Egypt, and publish () in Migdol, and publish () in Noph and in Tahpanhes: say () ye, Stand fast, () and prepare () thee; for the sword shall devour () round about thee.
[15] Why are thy valiant [men] swept away? () they stood () not, because the Lord did drive () them.
[16] He made many () to fall, () yea, one fell () upon another: and they said, () Arise, () and let us go again () to our own people, and to the land of our nativity, from the oppressing () sword.
[17] They did cry () there, Pharaoh king of Egypt [is but] a noise; he hath passed () the time appointed.
[18] [As] I live, saith () the King, whose name [is] the Lord of hosts, Surely as Tabor [is] among the mountains, and as Carmel by the sea, [so] shall he come. ()
[19] O thou daughter dwelling () in Egypt, furnish () thyself to go into captivity: for Noph shall be waste and desolate () without an inhabitant. ()
[20] Egypt [is like] a very fair heifer, [but] destruction cometh; () it cometh out () of the north.
[21] Also her hired men [are] in the midst of her like fatted bullocks; for they also are turned back, () [and] are fled away () together: they did not stand, () because the day of their calamity was come () upon them, [and] the time of their visitation.
[22] The voice thereof shall go () like a serpent; for they shall march () with an army, and come () against her with axes, as hewers () of wood.
[23] They shall cut down () her forest, saith () the Lord, though it cannot be searched; () because they are more () than the grasshoppers, and [are] innumerable.
[24] The daughter of Egypt shall be confounded; () she shall be delivered () into the hand of the people of the north.
[25] The Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saith; () Behold, I will punish () the multitude () of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with their gods, and their kings; even Pharaoh, and [all] them that trust () in him:
[26] And I will deliver () them into the hand of those that seek () their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants: and afterward it shall be inhabited, () as in the days of old, saith () the Lord.
[27] But fear () not thou, O my servant Jacob, and be not dismayed, () O Israel: for, behold, I will save () thee from afar off, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, () and be in rest () and at ease, () and none shall make [him] afraid. ()
[28] Fear () thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith () the Lord: for I [am] with thee; for I will make () a full end of all the nations whither I have driven () thee: but I will not make () a full end of thee, but correct () thee in measure; yet will I not leave thee wholly () unpunished. ()
