Jeremiah 8 - King James Bible with Strong Numbers1 H6256 At that time H5002 , saith [H8803] H3068 the LORD H3318 , they shall bring out [H8686] H6106 the bones H4428 of the kings H3063 of Judah H6106 , and the bones H8269 of his princes H6106 , and the bones H3548 of the priests H6106 , and the bones H5030 of the prophets H6106 , and the bones H3427 of the inhabitants [H8802] H3389 of Jerusalem H6913 , out of their graves: 2 H7849 And they shall spread [H8804] H8121 them before the sun H3394 , and the moon H6635 , and all the host H8064 of heaven H157 , whom they have loved [H8804] H5647 , and whom they have served [H8804] H310 , and after H1980 whom they have walked [H8804] H1875 , and whom they have sought [H8804] H7812 , and whom they have worshipped [H8694] H622 : they shall not be gathered [H8735] H6912 , nor be buried [H8735] H1828 ; they shall be for dung H6440 upon the face H127 of the earth. 3 H4194 And death H977 shall be chosen [H8738] H2416 rather than life H7611 by all the residue H7604 of them that remain [H8737] H7451 of this evil H4940 family H7604 , which remain [H8737] H4725 in all the places H5080 whither I have driven [H8689] H5002 them, saith [H8803] H3068 the LORD H6635 of hosts. 4 H559 Moreover thou shalt say [H8804] H559 unto them, Thus saith [H8804] H3068 the LORD H5307 ; Shall they fall [H8799] H6965 , and not arise [H8799] H7725 ? shall he turn away [H8799] H7725 , and not return [H8799] ? 5 H5971 Why then is this people H3389 of Jerusalem H7725 slidden back [H8790] H5329 by a perpetual [H8737] H4878 backsliding H2388 ? they hold [H8689] H8649 fast deceit H3985 , they refuse [H8765] H7725 to return [H8800] . 6 H7181 I hearkened [H8689] H8085 and heard [H8799] H1696 , but they spake not aright [H8762] H376 : no man H5162 repented [H8737] H5921 him of H7451 his wickedness H559 , saying [H8800] H6213 , What have I done [H8804] H7725 ? every one turned [H8804] H4794 to his course H5483 , as the horse H7857 rusheth [H8802] H4421 into the battle. 7 H2624 Yea, the stork H8064 in the heaven H3045 knoweth [H8804] H4150 her appointed times H8449 ; and the turtle H5483 and the crane H5693 and the swallow H8104 observe [H8804] H6256 the time H935 of their coming [H8800] H5971 ; but my people H3045 know [H8804] H4941 not the judgment H3068 of the LORD. 8 H559 How do ye say [H8799] H2450 , We are wise H8451 , and the law H3068 of the LORD H403 is with us? Lo, certainly H8267 in vain H6213 made [H8804] H5842 he it; the pen H5608 of the scribes [H8802] H8267 is in vain. 9 H2450 The wise H3001 men are ashamed [H8689] H2865 , they are dismayed [H8804] H3920 and taken [H8735] H3988 : lo, they have rejected [H8804] H1697 the word H3068 of the LORD H2451 ; and what wisdom is in them? 10 H5414 Therefore will I give [H8799] H802 their wives H312 unto others H7704 , and their fields H3423 to them that shall inherit [H8802] H6996 them : for every one from the least H1419 even unto the greatest H1214 is given [H8802] H1215 to covetousness H5030 , from the prophet H3548 even unto the priest H6213 every one dealeth [H8802] H8267 falsely. 11 H7495 For they have healed [H8762] H7667 the hurt H1323 of the daughter H5971 of my people H7043 slightly [H8738] H559 , saying [H8800] H7965 , Peace H7965 , peace H7965 ; when there is no peace. 12 H3001 Were they ashamed [H8689] H6213 when they had committed [H8804] H8441 abomination H954 ? nay, they were not at all [H8800] H954 ashamed [H8799] H3045 , neither could [H8804] H3637 they blush [H8736] H5307 : therefore shall they fall [H8799] H5307 among them that fall [H8802] H6256 : in the time H6486 of their visitation H3782 they shall be cast down [H8735] H559 , saith [H8804] H3068 the LORD. 13 H622 I will surely [H8800] H5486 consume [H8686] H5002 them, saith [H8803] H3068 the LORD H6025 : there shall be no grapes H1612 on the vine H8384 , nor figs H8384 on the fig tree H5929 , and the leaf H5034 shall fade [H8804] H5414 ; and the things that I have given [H8799] H5674 them shall pass away [H8799] from them. 14 H3427 Why do we sit still [H8802] H622 ? assemble [H8734] H935 yourselves, and let us enter [H8799] H4013 into the defenced H5892 cities H1826 , and let us be silent [H8735] H3068 there: for the LORD H430 our God H1826 hath put us to silence [H8689] H4325 , and given us water H7219 of gall H8248 to drink [H8686] H2398 , because we have sinned [H8804] H3068 against the LORD. 15 H6960 We looked [H8763] H7965 for peace H2896 , but no good H6256 came; and for a time H4832 of health H1205 , and behold trouble! 16 H5170 The snorting H5483 of his horses H8085 was heard [H8738] H1835 from Dan H776 : the whole land H7493 trembled [H8804] H6963 at the sound H4684 of the neighing H47 of his strong ones H935 ; for they are come [H8799] H398 , and have devoured [H8799] H776 the land H4393 , and all H5892 that is in it; the city H3427 , and those that dwell [H8802] therein. 17 H7971 For, behold, I will send [H8764] H5175 serpents H6848 , cockatrices H3908 , among you, which will not be charmed H5391 , and they shall bite [H8765] H5002 you, saith [H8803] H3068 the LORD. 18 H4010 When I would comfort H3015 myself against sorrow H3820 , my heart H1742 is faint in me. 19 H6963 Behold the voice H7775 of the cry H1323 of the daughter H5971 of my people H4801 because of them that dwell in a far H776 country H3068 : Is not the LORD H6726 in Zion H4428 ? is not her king H3707 in her? Why have they provoked me to anger [H8689] H6456 with their graven images H5236 , and with strange H1892 vanities? 20 H7105 The harvest H5674 is past [H8804] H7019 , the summer H3615 is ended [H8804] H3467 , and we are not saved [H8738] . 21 H7667 For the hurt H1323 of the daughter H5971 of my people H7665 am I hurt [H8717] H6937 ; I am black [H8804] H8047 ; astonishment H2388 hath taken hold [H8689] on me. 22 H6875 Is there no balm H1568 in Gilead H7495 ; is there no physician [H8802] H3588 there? why then H724 is not the health H1323 of the daughter H5971 of my people H5927 recovered [H8804] ? |
