- Now Pashhur, the son of Immer the priest, who was chief officer in the house of Yahweh, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things.
- Then Pashhur struck Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the upper gate of Benjamin, which was in the house of Yahweh.
- It happened on the next day, that Pashhur brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then Jeremiah said to him, Yahweh has not called your name Pashhur, but Magormissabib.
- For thus says Yahweh, Behold, I will make you a terror to yourself, and to all your friends; and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes shall see it; and I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them captive to Babylon, and shall kill them with the sword.
- Moreover I will give all the riches of this city, and all its gains, and all the precious things of it, yes, all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies; and they shall make them a prey, and take them, and carry them to Babylon.
- You, Pashhur, and all who dwell in your house shall go into captivity; and you shall come to Babylon, and there you shall die, and there you shall be buried, you, and all your friends, to whom you have prophesied falsely.
- Yahweh, you have persuaded me, and I was persuaded; you are stronger than I, and have prevailed: I am become a laughing-stock all the day, every one mocks me.
- For as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, Violence and destruction! because the word of Yahweh is made a reproach to me, and a derision, all the day.
- If I say, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name, then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with forbearing, and I can't [contain].
- For I have heard the defaming of many, terror on every side. Denounce, and we will denounce him, [say] all my familiar friends, those who watch for my fall; perhaps he will be persuaded, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him.
- But Yahweh is with me as an awesome mighty one: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail; they shall be utterly disappointed, because they have not dealt wisely, even with an everlasting dishonor which shall never be forgotten.
- But, Yahweh of Armies, who tests the righteous, who sees the heart and the mind, let me see your vengeance on them; for to you have I revealed my cause.
- Sing to Yahweh, praise Yahweh; for he has delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evildoers.
- Cursed is the day in which I was born: don't let the day in which my mother bore me be blessed.
- Cursed is the man who brought news to my father, saying, A boy is born to you; making him very glad.
- Let that man be as the cities which Yahweh overthrew, and didn't repent: and let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting at noontime;
- because he didn't kill me from the womb; and so my mother would have been my grave, and her womb always great.
- Why came I forth out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?

- וישמע פשחור בן־אמר הכהן והוא־פקיד נגיד בבית יהוה את־ירמיהו נבא את־הדברים האלה׃
- ויכה פשחור את ירמיהו הנביא ויתן אתו על־המהפכת אשר בשער בנימן העליון אשר בבית יהוה׃
- ויהי ממחרת ויצא פשחור את־ירמיהו מן־המהפכת ויאמר אליו ירמיהו לא פשחור קרא יהוה שמך כי אם־מגור מסביב׃ ף
- כי כה אמר יהוה הנני נתנך למגור לך ולכל־אהביך ונפלו בחרב איביהם ועיניך ראות ואת־כל־יהודה אתן ביד מלך־בבל והגלם בבלה והכם בחרב׃
- ונתתי את־כל־חסן העיר הזאת ואת־כל־יגיעה ואת־כל־יקרה ואת כל־אוצרות מלכי יהודה אתן ביד איביהם ובזזום ולקחום והביאום בבלה׃
- ואתה פשחור וכל ישבי ביתך תלכו בשבי ובבל תבוא ושם תמות ושם תקבר אתה וכל־אהביך אשר־נבאת להם בשקר׃ ס
- פתיתני יהוה ואפת חזקתני ותוכל הייתי לשחוק כל־היום כלה לעג לי׃
- כי־מדי אדבר אזעק חמס ושד אקרא כי־היה דבר־יהוה לי לחרפה ולקלס כל־היום׃
- ואמרתי לא־אזכרנו ולא־אדבר עוד בשמו והיה בלבי כאש בערת עצר בעצמתי ונלאיתי כלכל ולא אוכל׃
- כי שמעתי דבת רבים מגור מסביב הגידו ונגידנו כל אנוש שלומי שמרי צלעי אולי יפתה ונוכלה לו ונקחה נקמתנו ממנו׃
- ויהוה אותי כגבור עריץ על־כן רדפי יכשלו ולא יכלו בשו מאד כי־לא השכילו כלמת עולם לא תשכח׃
- ויהוה צבאות בחן צדיק ראה כליות ולב אראה נקמתך מהם כי אליך גליתי את־ריבי׃ ס
- שירו ליהוה הללו את־יהוה כי הציל את־נפש אביון מיד מרעים׃ ס
- ארור היום אשר ילדתי בו יום אשר־ילדתני אמי אל־יהי ברוך׃
- ארור האיש אשר בשר את־אבי לאמר ילד־לך בן זכר שמח שמחהו׃
- והיה האיש ההוא כערים אשר־הפך יהוה ולא נחם ושמע זעקה בבקר ותרועה בעת צהרים׃
- אשר לא־מותתני מרחם ותהי־לי אמי קברי ורחמה הרת עולם׃
- למה זה מרחם יצאתי לראות עמל ויגון ויכלו בבשת ימי׃ ף

| Jeremiah 20 Text (Latin)
|
- Et audivit Phassur filius Emmer, sacerdos, qui constitutus erat princeps in domo Domini, Jeremiam prophetantem sermones istos.
- Et percussit Phassur Jeremiam prophetam, et misit eum in nervum quod erat in porta Benjamin superiori, in domo Domini.
- Cumque illuxisset in crastinum, eduxit Phassur Jeremiam de nervo, et dixit ad eum Jeremias : Non Phassur vocavit Dominus nomen tuum, sed Pavorem undique.
- Quia hæc dicit Dominus : Ecce ego dabo te in pavorem, te et omnes amicos tuos : et corruent gladio inimicorum suorum, et oculi tui videbunt : et omnem Judam dabo in manum regis Babylonis, et traducet eos in Babylonem, et percutiet eos gladio.
- Et dabo universam substantiam civitatis hujus, et omnem laborem ejus, omneque pretium, et cunctos thesauros regum Juda dabo in manu inimicorum eorum : et diripient eos, et tollent, et ducent in Babylonem.
- Tu autem, Phassur, et omnes habitatores domus tuæ, ibitis in captivitatem : et in Babylonem venies, et ibi morieris, ibique sepelieris tu, et omnes amici tui, quibus prophetasti mendacium.
- Seduxisti me, Domine, et seductus sum : fortior me fuisti, et invaluisti : factus sum in derisum tota die, omnes subsannant me.
- Quia jam olim loquor, vociferans iniquitatem, et vastitatem clamito : et factus est mihi sermo Domini in opprobrium, et in derisum tota die.
- Et dixi : Non recordabor ejus, neque loquar ultra in nomine illius : et factus est in corde meo quasi ignis exæstuans, claususque in ossibus meis, et defeci, ferre non sustinens.
- Audivi enim contumelias multorum, et terrorem in circuitu : Persequimini, et persequamur eum, ab omnibus viris qui erant pacifici mei, et custodientes latus meum : si quomodo decipiatur, et prævaleamus adversus eum, et consequamur ultionem ex eo.
- Dominus autem mecum est, quasi bellator fortis : idcirco qui persequuntur me cadent, et infirmi erunt : confundentur vehementer, quia non intellexerunt opprobrium sempiternum, quod numquam delebitur.
- Et tu, Domine exercituum, probator justi, qui vides renes et cor, videam, quæso, ultionem tuam ex eis : tibi enim revelavi causam meam.
- Cantate Domino, laudate Dominum, quia liberavit animam pauperis de manu malorum.
- Maledicta dies in qua natus sum ! dies in qua peperit me mater mea non sit benedicta !
- Maledictus vir qui annuntiavit patri meo, dicens : Natus est tibi puer masculus, et quasi gaudio lætificavit eum !
- Sit homo ille ut sunt civitates quæ subvertit Dominus, et non pœnituit eum : audiat clamorem mane, et ululatum in tempore meridiano :
- qui non me interfecit a vulva, ut fieret mihi mater mea sepulchrum, et vulva ejus conceptus æternus !
- Quare de vulva egressus sum, ut viderem laborem et dolorem, et sonsumerentur in confusione dies mei ?

| Jeremiah 20 Text (KJV)
|
- Now Pashur the son of Immer the priest, who was also chief governor in the house of the LORD, heard that Jeremiah prophesied these things.
- Then Pashur smote Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the high gate of Benjamin, which was by the house of the LORD.
- And it came to pass on the morrow, that Pashur brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then said Jeremiah unto him, The LORD hath not called thy name Pashur, but Magor-missabib.
- For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will make thee a terror to thyself, and to all thy friends: and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and thine eyes shall behold it: and I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them captive into Babylon, and shall slay them with the sword.
- Moreover I will deliver all the strength of this city, and all the labours thereof, and all the precious things thereof, and all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies, which shall spoil them, and take them, and carry them to Babylon.
- And thou, Pashur, and all that dwell in thine house shall go into captivity: and thou shalt come to Babylon, and there thou shalt die, and shalt be buried there, thou, and all thy friends, to whom thou hast prophesied lies.
- O LORD, thou hast deceived me, and I was deceived: thou art stronger than I, and hast prevailed: I am in derision daily, every one mocketh me.
- For since I spake, I cried out, I cried violence and spoil; because the word of the LORD was made a reproach unto me, and a derision, daily.
- Then I said, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name. But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay.
- For I heard the defaming of many, fear on every side. Report, say they, and we will report it. All my familiars watched for my halting, saying, Peradventure he will be enticed, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him.
- But the LORD is with me as a mighty terrible one: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail: they shall be greatly ashamed; for they shall not prosper: their everlasting confusion shall never be forgotten.
- But, O LORD of hosts, that triest the righteous, and seest the reins and the heart, let me see thy vengeance on them: for unto thee have I opened my cause.
- Sing unto the LORD, praise ye the LORD: for he hath delivered the soul of the poor from the hand of evildoers.
- Cursed be the day wherein I was born: let not the day wherein my mother bare me be blessed.
- Cursed be the man who brought tidings to my father, saying, A man child is born unto thee; making him very glad.
- And let that man be as the cities which the LORD overthrew, and repented not: and let him hear the cry in the morning, and the shouting at noontide;
- Because he slew me not from the womb; or that my mother might have been my grave, and her womb to be always great with me.
- Wherefore came I forth out of the womb to see labour and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
