- The word which came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, when king Zedekiah sent to him Pashhur the son of Malchijah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, saying,
- Please inquire of Yahweh for us; for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon makes war against us: perhaps Yahweh will deal with us according to all his wondrous works, that he may go up from us.
- Then Jeremiah said to them, You shall tell Zedekiah:
- Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, Behold, I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands, with which you fight against the king of Babylon, and against the Chaldeans who besiege you, without the walls; and I will gather them into the midst of this city.
- I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation.
- I will strike the inhabitants of this city, both man and animal: they shall die of a great pestilence.
- Afterward, says Yahweh, I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah, and his servants, and the people, even such as are left in this city from the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life: and he shall strike them with the edge of the sword; he shall not spare them, neither have pity, nor have mercy.
- To this people you shall say, Thus says Yahweh: Behold, I set before you the way of life and the way of death.
- He who remains in this city shall die by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence; but he who goes out, and passes over to the Chaldeans who besiege you, he shall live, and his life shall be to him for a prey.
- For I have set my face on this city for evil, and not for good, says Yahweh: it shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.
- Touching the house of the king of Judah, hear the word of Yahweh:
- House of David, thus says Yahweh, Execute justice in the morning, and deliver him who is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor, lest my wrath go forth like fire, and burn so that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.
- Behold, I am against you, O inhabitant of the valley, [and] of the rock of the plain, says Yahweh; you that say, Who shall come down against us? or who shall enter into our habitations?
- I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings, says Yahweh; and I will kindle a fire in her forest, and it shall devour all that is around her.

- הדבר אשר־היה אל־ירמיהו מאת יהוה בשלח אליו המלך צדקיהו את־פשחור בן־מלכיה ואת־צפניה בן־מעשיה הכהן לאמר׃
- דרש־נא בעדנו את־יהוה כי נבוכדראצר מלך־בבל נלחם עלינו אולי יעשה יהוה אותנו ככל־נפלאתיו ויעלה מעלינו׃ ס
- ויאמר ירמיהו אליהם כה תאמרן אל־צדקיהו׃
- כה־אמר יהוה אלהי ישראל הנני מסב את־כלי המלחמה אשר בידכם אשר אתם נלחמים בם את־מלך בבל ואת־הכשדים הצרים עליכם מחוץ לחומה ואספתי אותם אל־תוך העיר הזאת׃
- ונלחמתי אני אתכם ביד נטויה ובזרוע חזקה ובאף ובחמה ובקצף גדול׃
- והכיתי את־יושבי העיר הזאת ואת־האדם ואת־הבהמה בדבר גדול ימתו׃
- ואחרי־כן נאם־יהוה אתן את־צדקיהו מלך־יהודה ואת־עבדיו ואת־העם ואת־הנשארים בעיר הזאת מן־הדבר מן־החרב ומן־הרעב ביד נבוכדראצר מלך־בבל וביד איביהם וביד מבקשי נפשם והכם לפי־חרב לא־יחוס עליהם ולא יחמל ולא ירחם׃
- ואל־העם הזה תאמר כה אמר יהוה הנני נתן לפניכם את־דרך החיים ואת־דרך המות׃
- הישב בעיר הזאת ימות בחרב וברעב ובדבר והיוצא ונפל על־הכשדים הצרים עליכם והיתה־לו נפשו לשלל׃
- כי שמתי פני בעיר הזאת לרעה ולא לטובה נאם־יהוה ביד־מלך בבל תנתן ושרפה באש׃ ס
- ולבית מלך יהודה שמעו דבר־יהוה׃
- בית דוד כה אמר יהוה דינו לבקר משפט והצילו גזול מיד עושק פן־תצא כאש חמתי ובערה ואין מכבה מפני רע ׃
- הנני אליך ישבת העמק צור המישר נאם־יהוה האמרים מי־יחת עלינו ומי יבוא במעונותינו׃
- ופקדתי עליכם כפרי מעלליכם נאם־יהוה והצתי אש ביערה ואכלה כל־סביביה׃ ס

- Verbum quod factum est ad Jeremiam a Domino, quando misit ad eum rex Sedecias Phassur, filium Melchiæ, et Sophoniam, filium Maasiæ, sacerdotem, dicens :
- Interroga pro nobis Dominum, quia Nabuchodonosor, rex Babylonis, præliatur adversum nos : si forte faciat Dominus nobiscum secundum omnia mirabilia sua, et recedat a nobis.
- Et dixit Jeremias ad eos : Sic dicetis Sedeciæ :
- Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israël : Ecce ego convertam vasa belli, quæ in manibus vestris sunt, et quibus vos pugnatis adversum regem Babylonis, et Chaldæos, qui obsident vos in circuitu murorum : et congregabo ea in medio civitatis hujus.
- Et debellabo ego vos in manu extenta, et in brachio forti, et in furore, et in indignatione, et in ira grandi.
- Et percutiam habitatores civitatis hujus : homines et bestiæ pestilentia magna morientur.
- Et post hæc ait Dominus : Dabo Sedeciam, regem Juda, et servos ejus, et populum ejus, et qui derelicti sunt in civitate hac a peste, et gladio, et fame, in manu Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis, et in manu inimicorum eorum, et in manu quærentium animam eorum : et percutiet eos in ore gladii, et non flectetur neque parcet, nec miserebitur.
- Et ad populum hunc dices : Hæc dicit Dominus : Ecce ego do coram vobis viam vitæ, et viam mortis.
- Qui habitaverit in urbe hac morietur gladio, et fame, et peste : qui autem egressus fuerit, et transfugerit ad Chaldæos, qui obsident vos, vivet, et erit ei anima sua quasi spolium.
- Posui enim faciem meam super civitatem hanc in malum, et non in bonum, ait Dominus : in manu regis Babylonis dabitur, et exuret eam igni.
- Et domui regis Juda : Audite verba Domini,
- domus David : Hæc dicit Dominus : Judicate mane judicium, et eruite vi oppressum de manu calumniantis, ne forte egrediatur ut ignis indignatio mea, et succendatur, et non sit qui extinguat, propter malitiam studiorum vestrorum.
- Ecce ego ad te, habitatricem vallis solidæ atque campestris, ait Dominus : qui dicitis : Quis percutiet nos ? et quis ingredietur domos nostras ?
- Et visitabo super vos juxta fructum studiorum vestrorum, dicit Dominus : et succendam ignem in saltu ejus, et devorabit omnia in circuitu ejus.

- The word which came unto Jeremiah from the LORD, when king Zedekiah sent unto him Pashur the son of Melchiah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest, saying,
- Inquire, I pray thee, of the LORD for us; for Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon maketh war against us; if so be that the LORD will deal with us according to all his wondrous works, that he may go up from us.
- Then said Jeremiah unto them, Thus shall ye say to Zedekiah:
- Thus saith the LORD God of Israel; Behold, I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands, wherewith ye fight against the king of Babylon, and against the Chaldeans, which besiege you without the walls, and I will assemble them into the midst of this city.
- And I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath.
- And I will smite the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast: they shall die of a great pestilence.
- And afterward, saith the LORD, I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah, and his servants, and the people, and such as are left in this city from the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those that seek their life: and he shall smite them with the edge of the sword; he shall not spare them, neither have pity, nor have mercy.
- And unto this people thou shalt say, Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I set before you the way of life, and the way of death.
- He that abideth in this city shall die by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence: but he that goeth out, and falleth to the Chaldeans that besiege you, he shall live, and his life shall be unto him for a prey.
- For I have set my face against this city for evil, and not for good, saith the LORD: it shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.
- And touching the house of the king of Judah, say, Hear ye the word of the LORD;
- O house of David, thus saith the LORD; Execute judgment in the morning, and deliver him that is spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor, lest my fury go out like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.
- Behold, I am against thee, O inhabitant of the valley, and rock of the plain, saith the LORD; which say, Who shall come down against us? or who shall enter into our habitations?
- But I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings, saith the LORD: and I will kindle a fire in the forest thereof, and it shall devour all things round about it.
