Jeremiah 37

KJV

1  And king4428 Zedekiah6667 the son1121 of Josiah2977 reigned4427 instead8478 of Coniah3659 the son1121 of Jehoiakim,3079 whom834 Nebuchadnezzar5019 king4428 of Babylon894 made king4427 in the land776 of Judah.3063

2  But neither3808 he,1931 nor his servants,5650 nor the people5971 of the land,776 did hearken8085 unto413 the words1697 of the LORD,3068 which834 he spoke1696 by3027 the prophet5030 Jeremiah.3414

3  And Zedekiah6667 the king4428 sent7971 853 Jehucal3081 the son1121 of Shelemiah8018 and Zephaniah6846 the son1121 of Maaseiah4641 the priest3548 to413 the prophet5030 Jeremiah,3414 saying,559 Pray6419 now4994 unto413 the LORD3068 our God430 for1157 us.

4  Now Jeremiah3414 came in935 and went out3318 among8432 the people:5971 for they had not3808 put5414 him into prison.1004 3628

5  Then Pharaoh's6547 army2428 was come forth3318 out of Egypt:4480 4714 and when the Chaldeans3778 that besieged6696 5921 Jerusalem3389 heard8085 853 tidings8088 of them, they departed5927 from4480 5921 Jerusalem.3389

6  Then came1961 the word1697 of the LORD3068 unto413 the prophet5030 Jeremiah,3414 saying,559

7  Thus3541 saith559 the LORD,3068 the God430 of Israel;3478 Thus3541 shall ye say559 to413 the king4428 of Judah,3063 that sent7971 you unto413 me to inquire1875 of me; Behold,2009 Pharaoh's6547 army,2428 which is come forth3318 to help5833 you, shall return7725 to Egypt4714 into their own land.776

8  And the Chaldeans3778 shall come again,7725 and fight3898 against5921 this2063 city,5892 and take3920 it, and burn8313 it with fire.784

9  Thus3541 saith559 the LORD;3068 Deceive5377 not408 yourselves,5315 saying,559 The Chaldeans3778 shall surely depart1980 1980 from4480 5921 us: for3588 they shall not3808 depart.1980

10  For3588 though518 ye had smitten5221 the whole3605 army2428 of the Chaldeans3778 that fight3898 against854 you, and there remained7604 but wounded1856 men376 among them, yet should they rise6965 every man376 in his tent,168 and burn8313 853 this2063 city5892 with fire.784

11  And it came to pass,1961 that when the army2428 of the Chaldeans3778 was broken up5927 from4480 5921 Jerusalem3389 for fear4480 6440 of Pharaoh's6547 army,2428

12  Then Jeremiah3414 went forth3318 out of Jerusalem4480 3389 to go1980 into the land776 of Benjamin,1144 to separate himself2505 thence4480 8033 in the midst8432 of the people.5971

13  And when he1931 was1961 in the gate8179 of Benjamin,1144 a captain1167 of the ward6488 was there,8033 whose name8034 was Irijah,3376 the son1121 of Shelemiah,8018 the son1121 of Hananiah;2608 and he took8610 853 Jeremiah3414 the prophet,5030 saying,559 Thou859 fallest away5307 to413 the Chaldeans.3778

14  Then said559 Jeremiah,3414 It is false;8267 I fall5307 not369 away to5921 the Chaldeans.3778 But he hearkened8085 not3808 to413 him: so Irijah3376 took8610 Jeremiah,3414 and brought935 him to413 the princes.8269

15  Wherefore the princes8269 were wroth7107 with5921 Jeremiah,3414 and smote5221 him, and put5414 him in prison1004 612 in the house1004 of Jonathan3083 the scribe:5608 for3588 they had made6213 that the prison.1004 3608

16  When3588 Jeremiah3414 was entered935 into413 the dungeon,1004 953 and into413 the cabins,2588 and Jeremiah3414 had remained3427 there8033 many7227 days;3117

17  Then Zedekiah6667 the king4428 sent,7971 and took3947 him out: and the king4428 asked7592 him secretly5643 in his house,1004 and said,559 Is there3426 any word1697 from4480 854 the LORD?3068 And Jeremiah3414 said,559 There is:3426 for, said559 he, thou shalt be delivered5414 into the hand3027 of the king4428 of Babylon.894

18  Moreover Jeremiah3414 said559 unto413 king4428 Zedekiah,6667 What4100 have I offended2398 against thee, or against thy servants,5650 or against this2088 people,5971 that3588 ye have put5414 me in413 prison?1004 3608

19  Where346 are now your prophets5030 which834 prophesied5012 unto you, saying,559 The king4428 of Babylon894 shall not3808 come935 against5921 you, nor against5921 this2063 land?776

20  Therefore hear8085 now,6258 I pray thee,4994 O my lord113 the king:4428 let my supplication,8467 I pray thee,4994 be accepted5307 before6440 thee; that thou cause me not408 to return7725 to the house1004 of Jonathan3083 the scribe,5608 lest3808 I die4191 there.8033

21  Then Zedekiah6667 the king4428 commanded6680 that they should commit6485 853 Jeremiah3414 into the court2691 of the prison,4307 and that they should give5414 him daily3117 a piece3603 of bread3899 out of the bakers'644 street,4480 2351 until5704 all3605 the bread3899 in4480 the city5892 were spent.8552 Thus Jeremiah3414 remained3427 in the court2691 of the prison.4307

1 ὁ λόγος ὁ γενόμενος πρὸς Ιερεμιαν παρὰ κυρίου εἰπεῖν

2 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ λέγων γράψον πάντας τοὺς λόγους οὓς ἐχρημάτισα πρὸς σέ ἐπὶ βιβλίου

3 ὅτι ἰδοὺ ἡμέραι ἔρχονται φησὶν κύριος καὶ ἀποστρέψω τὴν ἀποικίαν λαοῦ μου Ισραηλ καὶ Ιουδα εἶπεν κύριος καὶ ἀποστρέψω αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν ἔδωκα τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν καὶ κυριεύσουσιν αὐτῆς

4 καὶ οὗτοι οἱ λόγοι οὓς ἐλάλησεν κύριος ἐπὶ Ισραηλ καὶ Ιουδα

5 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος φωνὴν φόβου ἀκούσεσθε φόβος καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν εἰρήνη

6 ἐρωτήσατε καὶ ἴδετε εἰ ἔτεκεν ἄρσεν καὶ περὶ φόβου ἐν ᾧ καθέξουσιν ὀσφὺν καὶ σωτηρίαν διότι ἑώρακα πάντα ἄνθρωπον καὶ αἱ χεῖρες αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τῆς ὀσφύος αὐτοῦ ἐστράφησαν πρόσωπα εἰς ἴκτερον

7 ἐγενήθη ὅτι μεγάλη ἡ ἡμέρα ἐκείνη καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν τοιαύτη καὶ χρόνος στενός ἐστιν τῷ Ιακωβ καὶ ἀπὸ τούτου σωθήσεται

8 ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ εἶπεν κύριος συντρίψω τὸν ζυγὸν ἀπὸ τοῦ τραχήλου αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς δεσμοὺς αὐτῶν διαρρήξω καὶ οὐκ ἐργῶνται αὐτοὶ ἔτι ἀλλοτρίοις

9 καὶ ἐργῶνται τῷ κυρίῳ θεῷ αὐτῶν καὶ τὸν Δαυιδ βασιλέα αὐτῶν ἀναστήσω αὐτοῖς

12 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ἀνέστησα σύντριμμα ἀλγηρὰ ἡ πληγή σου

13 οὐκ ἔστιν κρίνων κρίσιν σου εἰς ἀλγηρὸν ἰατρεύθης ὠφέλεια οὐκ ἔστιν σοι

14 πάντες οἱ φίλοι σου ἐπελάθοντό σου οὐ μὴ ἐπερωτήσουσιν ὅτι πληγὴν ἐχθροῦ ἔπαισά σε παιδείαν στερεάν ἐπὶ πᾶσαν ἀδικίαν σου ἐπλήθυναν αἱ ἁμαρτίαι σου

16 διὰ τοῦτο πάντες οἱ ἔσθοντές σε βρωθήσονται καὶ πάντες οἱ ἐχθροί σου κρέας αὐτῶν πᾶν ἔδονται ἐπὶ πλῆθος ἀδικιῶν σου ἐπληθύνθησαν αἱ ἁμαρτίαι σου ἐποίησαν ταῦτά σοι καὶ ἔσονται οἱ διαφοροῦντές σε εἰς διαφόρημα καὶ πάντας τοὺς προνομεύοντάς σε δώσω εἰς προνομήν

17 ὅτι ἀνάξω τὸ ἴαμά σου ἀπὸ πληγῆς ὀδυνηρᾶς ἰατρεύσω σε φησὶν κύριος ὅτι ἐσπαρμένη ἐκλήθης θήρευμα ὑμῶν ἐστιν ὅτι ζητῶν οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτήν

18 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀποστρέψω τὴν ἀποικίαν Ιακωβ καὶ αἰχμαλωσίαν αὐτοῦ ἐλεήσω καὶ οἰκοδομηθήσεται πόλις ἐπὶ τὸ ὕψος αὐτῆς καὶ ὁ ναὸς κατὰ τὸ κρίμα αὐτοῦ καθεδεῖται

19 καὶ ἐξελεύσονται ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν ᾄδοντες καὶ φωνὴ παιζόντων καὶ πλεονάσω αὐτούς καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐλαττωθῶσιν

20 καὶ εἰσελεύσονται οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν ὡς τὸ πρότερον καὶ τὰ μαρτύρια αὐτῶν κατὰ πρόσωπόν μου ὀρθωθήσεται καὶ ἐπισκέψομαι τοὺς θλίβοντας αὐτούς

21 καὶ ἔσονται ἰσχυρότεροι αὐτοῦ ἐπ᾽ αὐτούς καὶ ὁ ἄρχων αὐτοῦ ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἐξελεύσεται καὶ συνάξω αὐτούς καὶ ἀποστρέψουσιν πρός με ὅτι τίς ἐστιν οὗτος ὃς ἔδωκεν τὴν καρδίαν αὐτοῦ ἀποστρέψαι πρός με φησὶν κύριος

23 ὅτι ὀργὴ κυρίου ἐξῆλθεν θυμώδης ἐξῆλθεν ὀργὴ στρεφομένη ἐπ᾽ ἀσεβεῖς ἥξει

24 οὐ μὴ ἀποστραφῇ ὀργὴ θυμοῦ κυρίου ἕως ποιήσῃ καὶ ἕως καταστήσῃ ἐγχείρημα καρδίας αὐτοῦ ἐπ᾽ ἐσχάτων τῶν ἡμερῶν γνώσεσθε αὐτά

Vul

1 Et regnavit rex Sedecias filius Josiæ pro Jechonia filio Joakim, quem constituit regem Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis in terra Juda:

2 et non obedivit ipse, et servi ejus, et populus terræ, verbis Domini, quæ locutus est in manu Jeremiæ prophetæ.

3 Et misit rex Sedecias Juchal filium Selemiæ, et Sophoniam filium Maasiæ, sacerdotem, ad Jeremiam prophetam, dicens: Ora pro nobis Dominum Deum nostrum.

4 Jeremias autem libere ambulabat in medio populi: non enim miserant eum in custodiam carceris. Igitur exercitus Pharaonis egressus est de Ægypto, et audientes Chaldæi qui obsidebant Jerusalem, hujuscemodi nuntium, recesserunt ab Jerusalem.

5 Et factum est verbum Domini ad Jeremiam prophetam, dicens:

6 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israël: Sic dicetis regi Juda, qui misit vos ad me interrogandum: Ecce exercitus Pharaonis, qui egressus est vobis in auxilium, revertetur in terram suam in Ægyptum:

7 et redient Chaldæi, et bellabunt contra civitatem hanc, et capient eam, et succendent eam igni.

8 Hæc dicit Dominus: Nolite decipere animas vestras, dicentes: Euntes abibunt, et recedent a nobis Chaldæi: quia non abibunt.

9 Sed etsi percusseritis omnem exercitum Chaldæorum qui præliantur adversum vos, et derelicti fuerint ex eis aliqui vulnerati, singuli de tentorio suo consurgent, et incendent civitatem hanc igni.

10 Ergo cum recessisset exercitus Chaldæorum ab Jerusalem, propter exercitum Pharaonis,

11 egressus est Jeremias de Jerusalem ut iret in terram Benjamin, et divideret ibi possessionem in conspectu civium.

12 Cumque pervenisset ad portam Benjamin, erat ibi custos portæ per vices, nomine Jerias filius Selemiæ filii Hananiæ: et apprehendit Jeremiam prophetam, dicens: Ad Chaldæos profugis.

13 Et respondit Jeremias: Falsum est: non fugio ad Chaldæos. Et non audivit eum, sed comprehendit Jerias Jeremiam, et adduxit eum ad principes:

14 quam ob rem irati principes contra Jeremiam, cæsum eum miserunt in carcerem qui erat in domo Jonathan scribæ: ipse enim præpositus erat super carcerem.

15 Itaque ingressus est Jeremias in domum laci et in ergastulum: et sedit ibi Jeremias diebus multis.

16 Mittens autem Sedecias rex, tulit eum: et interrogavit eum in domo sua abscondite, et dixit: Putasne est sermo a Domino? Et dixit Jeremias: Est: et ait: In manus regis Babylonis traderis.

17 Et dixit Jeremias ad regem Sedeciam: Quid peccavi tibi, et servis tuis, et populo tuo, quia misisti me in domum carceris?

18 ubi sunt prophetæ vestri, qui prophetabant vobis, et dicebant: Non veniet rex Babylonis super vos, et super terram hanc?

19 Nunc ergo audi, obsecro, domine mi rex: valeat deprecatio mea in conspectu tuo, et ne me remittas in domum Jonathan scribæ, ne moriar ibi.

20 Præcepit ergo rex Sedecias ut traderetur Jeremias in vestibulo carceris, et daretur ei torta panis quotidie, excepto pulmento, donec consumerentur omnes panes de civitate: et mansit Jeremias in vestibulo carceris.
