Jeremiah 14 - King James Bible with Strong Numbers1 H1697 The word H3068 of the LORD H3414 that came to Jeremiah H1697 concerning H1226 the dearth. 2 H3063 Judah H56 mourneth [H8804] H8179 , and the gates H535 thereof languish [H8797] H6937 ; they are black [H8804] H776 unto the ground H6682 ; and the cry H3389 of Jerusalem H5927 is gone up [H8804] . 3 H117 And their nobles H7971 have sent [H8804] H6810 their little ones H4325 to the waters H935 : they came [H8804] H1356 to the pits [H8676] H1360 H4672 , and found [H8804] H4325 no water H7725 ; they returned [H8804] H3627 with their vessels H7387 empty H954 ; they were ashamed [H8804] H3637 and confounded [H8717] H2645 , and covered [H8804] H7218 their heads. 4 H127 Because the ground H2865 is chapt [H8804] H1653 , for there was no rain H776 in the earth H406 , the plowmen H954 were ashamed [H8804] H2645 , they covered [H8804] H7218 their heads. 5 H365 Yea, the hind H3205 also calved [H8804] H7704 in the field H5800 , and forsook [H8800] H1877 it, because there was no grass. 6 H6501 And the wild asses H5975 did stand [H8804] H8205 in the high places H7602 , they snuffed up [H8804] H7307 the wind H8577 like dragons H5869 ; their eyes H3615 did fail [H8804] H6212 , because there was no grass. 7 H3068 O LORD H5771 , though our iniquities H6030 testify [H8804] H6213 against us, do [H8798] H8034 thou it for thy name's H4878 sake: for our backslidings H7231 are many [H8804] H2398 ; we have sinned [H8804] against thee. 8 H4723 O the hope H3478 of Israel H3467 , the saviour [H8688] H6256 thereof in time H6869 of trouble H1616 , why shouldest thou be as a stranger H776 in the land H732 , and as a wayfaring man [H8802] H5186 that turneth aside [H8804] H3885 to tarry for a night [H8800] ? 9 H376 Why shouldest thou be as a man H1724 astonied [H8737] H1368 , as a mighty man H3201 that cannot [H8799] H3467 save [H8687] H3068 ? yet thou, O LORD H7130 , art in the midst H7121 of us, and we are called [H8738] H8034 by thy name H3240 ; leave [H8686] us not. 10 H559 Thus saith [H8804] H3068 the LORD H5971 unto this people H157 , Thus have they loved [H8804] H5128 to wander [H8800] H2820 , they have not refrained [H8804] H7272 their feet H3068 , therefore the LORD H7521 doth not accept [H8804] H2142 them; he will now remember [H8799] H5771 their iniquity H6485 , and visit [H8799] H2403 their sins. 11 H559 Then said [H8799] H3068 the LORD H6419 unto me, Pray [H8691] H5971 not for this people H2896 for their good. 12 H6684 When they fast [H8799] H8085 , I will not hear [H8802] H7440 their cry H5927 ; and when they offer [H8686] H5930 burnt offering H4503 and an oblation H7521 , I will not accept [H8802] H3615 them: but I will consume [H8764] H2719 them by the sword H7458 , and by the famine H1698 , and by the pestilence. 13 H559 Then said [H8799] H162 I, Ah H136 , Lord H3069 GOD H5030 ! behold, the prophets H559 say [H8802] H7200 unto them, Ye shall not see [H8799] H2719 the sword H7458 , neither shall ye have famine H5414 ; but I will give [H8799] H571 you assured H7965 peace H4725 in this place. 14 H3068 Then the LORD H559 said [H8799] H5030 unto me, The prophets H5012 prophesy [H8737] H8267 lies H8034 in my name H7971 : I sent [H8804] H6680 them not, neither have I commanded [H8765] H1696 them, neither spake [H8765] H5012 unto them: they prophesy [H8693] H8267 unto you a false H2377 vision H7081 and divination H457 , and a thing of nought [H8675] H434 H8649 , and the deceit H3820 of their heart. 15 H559 Therefore thus saith [H8804] H3068 the LORD H5030 concerning the prophets H5012 that prophesy [H8737] H8034 in my name H7971 , and I sent [H8804] H559 them not, yet they say [H8802] H2719 , Sword H7458 and famine H776 shall not be in this land H2719 ; By sword H7458 and famine H5030 shall those prophets H8552 be consumed [H8735] . 16 H5971 And the people H5012 to whom they prophesy [H8737] H7993 shall be cast out [H8716] H2351 in the streets H3389 of Jerusalem H6440 because H7458 of the famine H2719 and the sword H6912 ; and they shall have none to bury [H8764] H1992 them H802 , them, their wives H1121 , nor their sons H1323 , nor their daughters H8210 : for I will pour [H8804] H7451 their wickedness upon them. 17 H559 Therefore thou shalt say [H8804] H1697 this word H5869 unto them; Let mine eyes H3381 run down [H8799] H1832 with tears H3915 night H3119 and day H1820 , and let them not cease [H8799] H1330 : for the virgin H1323 daughter H5971 of my people H7665 is broken [H8738] H1419 with a great H7667 breach H3966 , with a very H2470 grievous [H8737] H4347 blow. 18 H3318 If I go forth [H8804] H7704 into the field H2491 , then behold the slain H2719 with the sword H935 ! and if I enter [H8804] H5892 into the city H8463 , then behold them that are sick H7458 with famine H5030 ! yea, both the prophet H3548 and the priest H5503 go about [H8804] H776 into a land H3045 that they know [H8804] not. 19 H3988 Hast thou utterly [H8800] H3988 rejected [H8804] H3063 Judah H5315 ? hath thy soul H1602 lothed [H8804] H6726 Zion H5221 ? why hast thou smitten [H8689] H4832 us, and there is no healing H6960 for us? we looked [H8763] H7965 for peace H2896 , and there is no good H6256 ; and for the time H4832 of healing H1205 , and behold trouble! 20 H3045 We acknowledge [H8804] H3068 , O LORD H7562 , our wickedness H5771 , and the iniquity H1 of our fathers H2398 : for we have sinned [H8804] against thee. 21 H5006 Do not abhor [H8799] H8034 us, for thy name's H5034 sake, do not disgrace [H8762] H3678 the throne H3519 of thy glory H2142 : remember [H8798] H6565 , break [H8686] H1285 not thy covenant with us. 22 H3426 Are there H1892 any among the vanities H1471 of the Gentiles H1652 that can cause rain [H8688] H8064 ? or can the heavens H5414 give [H8799] H7241 showers H3068 ? art not thou he, O LORD H430 our God H6960 ? therefore we will wait [H8762] H6213 upon thee: for thou hast made [H8804] all these things . |
