Jeremiah 36:28 (NET) New English Translation

1 The LORD spoke to Jeremiah in the fourth year that Jehoiakim son of Josiah was ruling over Judah.
2 "Get a scroll. Write on it everything I have told you to say about Israel, Judah, and all the other nations since I began to speak to you in the reign of Josiah until now.
3 Perhaps when the people of Judah hear about all the disaster I intend to bring on them, they will all stop doing the evil things they have been doing. If they do, I will forgive their sins and the wicked things they have done."
4 So Jeremiah summoned Baruch son of Neriah. Then Jeremiah dictated to Baruch everything the LORD had told him to say and Baruch wrote it all down in a scroll.
5 Then Jeremiah told Baruch, "I am no longer allowed to go into the LORD's temple.
6 So you go there the next time all the people of Judah come in from their towns to fast in the LORD's temple. Read out loud where all of them can hear you what I told you the LORD said, which you wrote in the scroll.
7 Perhaps then they will ask the LORD for mercy and will all stop doing the evil things they have been doing. For the LORD has threatened to bring great anger and wrath against these people."
8 So Baruch son of Neriah did exactly what the prophet Jeremiah had told him to do. He read what the LORD had said from the scroll in the temple of the LORD.
9 All the people living in Jerusalem and all the people who came into Jerusalem from the towns of Judah came to observe a fast before the LORD. The fast took place in the ninth month of the fifth year that Jehoiakim son of Josiah was ruling over Judah.
10 At that time Baruch went into the temple of the LORD. He stood in the entrance of the room of Gemariah the son of Shaphan who had been the royal secretary. That room was in the upper court near the entrance of the New Gate. There, where all the people could hear him, he read from the scroll what Jeremiah had said.
11 Micaiah, who was the son of Gemariah and the grandson of Shaphan, heard Baruch read from the scroll everything the LORD had said.
12 He went down to the chamber of the royal secretary in the king's palace and found all the court officials in session there. Elishama the royal secretary, Delaiah son of Shemaiah, Elnathan son of Achbor, Gemariah son of Shaphan, Zedekiah son of Hananiah, and all the other officials were seated there.
13 Micaiah told them everything he had heard Baruch read from the scroll in the hearing of the people.
14 All the officials sent Jehudi, who was the son of Nethaniah and the grandson of Cushi, to Baruch. They ordered him to tell Baruch, "Come here and bring with you the scroll you read in the hearing of the people." So Baruch son of Neriah went to them, carrying the scroll in his hand.
15 They said to him, "Please sit down and read it to us." So Baruch sat down and read it to them.
16 When they had heard it all, they expressed their alarm to one another. Then they said to Baruch, "We must certainly give the king a report about everything you have read!"
17 Then they asked Baruch, "How did you come to write all these words? Do they actually come from Jeremiah's mouth?"
18 Baruch answered, "Yes, they came from his own mouth. He dictated all these words to me and I wrote them down in ink on this scroll."
19 Then the officials said to Baruch, "You and Jeremiah must go and hide. You must not let anyone know where you are."
20 The officials put the scroll in the room of Elishama, the royal secretary, for safekeeping. Then they went to the court and reported everything to the king.
21 The king sent Jehudi to get the scroll. He went and got it from the room of Elishama, the royal secretary. Then he himself read it to the king and all the officials who were standing around him.
22 Since it was the ninth month of the year, the king was sitting in his winter quarters. A fire was burning in the firepot in front of him.
23 As soon as Jehudi had read three or four columns of the scroll, the king would cut them off with a penknife and throw them on the fire in the firepot. He kept doing so until the whole scroll was burned up in the fire.
24 Neither he nor any of his attendants showed any alarm when they heard all that had been read. Nor did they tear their clothes to show any grief or sorrow.
25 The king did not even listen to Elnathan, Delaiah, and Gemariah, who had urged him not to burn the scroll.
26 He also ordered Jerahmeel, who was one of the royal princes, Seraiah son of Azriel, and Shelemiah son of Abdeel to arrest the scribe Baruch and the prophet Jeremiah. However, the LORD hid them.
27 The LORD spoke to Jeremiah after Jehoiakim had burned the scroll containing what Jeremiah had spoken and Baruch had written down.
28 "Get another scroll and write on it everything that was written on the original scroll that King Jehoiakim of Judah burned.
29 Tell King Jehoiakim of Judah, 'The LORD says, "You burned the scroll. You asked Jeremiah, 'How dare you write in this scroll that the king of Babylon will certainly come and destroy this land and wipe out all the people and animals on it?'"
30 So the LORD says concerning King Jehoiakim of Judah, "None of his line will occupy the throne of David. His dead body will be thrown out to be exposed to scorching heat by day and frost by night.
31 I will punish him and his descendants and the officials who serve him for the wicked things they have done. I will bring on them, the citizens of Jerusalem, and the people of Judah all the disaster that I threatened to do to them. I will punish them because I threatened them but they still paid no heed."'"
32 Then Jeremiah got another scroll and gave it to the scribe Baruch son of Neriah. As Jeremiah dictated, Baruch wrote on this scroll everything that had been on the scroll that King Jehoiakim of Judah burned in the fire. They also added on this scroll several other messages of the same kind.
1 And it came to pass H1961 W-VPY3MS in the fourth H7243 year H8141 of Jehoiakim H3079 the son H1121 of Josiah H2977 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 , that this H2088 D-PMS word H1697 D-NMS came H1961 W-VPY3MS unto H413 PREP Jeremiah H3414 from the LORD H3068 EDS , saying H559 L-VQFC ,
2 Take H3947 VQI2MS thee a roll H4039 of a book H5612 CMS , and write H3789 therein H413 PREP-3FS all H3605 NMS the words H1697 AMP that H834 RPRO I have spoken H1696 VPQ1MS unto H413 PREP-2MS thee against H5921 PREP Israel H3478 , and against H5921 PREP Judah H3063 , and against H5921 PREP all H3605 NMS the nations H1471 D-NMP , from the day H3117 M-NMS I spoke H1696 VPQ1MS unto H413 PREP-2MS thee , from the days H3117 M-NMS of Josiah H2977 , even unto H5704 W-PREP this H2088 D-PMS day H3117 M-NMS .
3 It may be that H194 ADV the house H1004 CMS of Judah H3063 will hear H8085 VQY3MP all H3605 NMS the evil H7451 D-AFS which H834 RPRO I H595 PPRO-1MS purpose H2803 to do H6213 L-VQFC unto them ; that H4616 L-CONJ they may return H7725 every man H376 NMS from his evil H7451 D-AFS way H1870 M-CMS-3MS ; that I may forgive H5545 their iniquity H5771 and their sin H2403 .
4 Then Jeremiah H3414 called H7121 W-VQY3MS Baruch H1263 the son H1121 of Neriah H5374 : and Baruch H1263 wrote H3789 from the mouth H6310 M-CMS of Jeremiah H3414 all H3605 NMS the words H1697 CMP of the LORD H3068 EDS , which H834 RPRO he had spoken H1696 VPQ3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , upon H5921 PREP a roll H4039 of a book H5612 .
5 And Jeremiah H3414 commanded H6680 Baruch H1263 , saying H559 L-VQFC , I H589 PPRO-1MS am shut up H6113 ; I cannot H3201 go H935 L-VQFC into the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS :
6 Therefore go H935 W-VQQ2MS thou H859 PPRO-2MS , and read H7121 in the roll H4039 , which H834 RPRO thou hast written H3789 from my mouth H6310 M-CMS , the words H1697 CMP of the LORD H3068 EDS in the ears H241 of the people H5971 in the LORD H3068 EDS \'s house H1004 CMS upon the fasting H6685 NMS day H3117 B-NMS : and also H1571 W-CONJ thou shalt read H7121 them in the ears H241 of all H3605 CMS Judah H3063 that come H935 out of their cities H5892 .
7 It may be H194 ADV they will present H5307 their supplication H8467 before H6440 L-CMP the LORD H3068 EDS , and will return H7725 W-VUY3MP every one H376 NMS from his evil H7451 D-AFS way H1870 M-CMS-3MS : for H3588 CONJ great H1419 is the anger H639 and the fury H2534 that H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS hath pronounced H1696 VPQ3MS against H413 PREP this H2088 D-PMS people H5971 .
8 And Baruch H1263 the son H1121 of Neriah H5374 did H6213 W-VQY3MS according to all H3605 K-NMS that H834 RPRO Jeremiah H3414 the prophet H5030 commanded H6680 VPQ3MS-3MS him , reading H7121 in the book H5612 the words H1697 CMP of the LORD H3068 EDS in the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS \'s house H1004 CMS .
9 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS in the fifth H2549 year H8141 of Jehoiakim H3079 the son H1121 of Josiah H2977 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 , in the ninth H8671 month H2320 BD-NMS , that they proclaimed H7121 a fast H6685 NMS before H6440 L-CMP the LORD H3068 EDS to all H3605 NMS the people H5971 in Jerusalem H3389 , and to all H3605 NMS the people H5971 that came H935 from the cities H5892 of Judah H3063 unto Jerusalem H3389 .
10 Then read H7121 W-VQY3MS Baruch H1263 in the book H5612 BD-NMS the words H1697 CMP of Jeremiah H3414 in the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , in the chamber H3957 of Gemariah H1587 the son H1121 CMS of Shaphan H8227 the scribe H5608 , in the higher H5945 court H2691 , at the entry H6607 CMS of the new H2319 gate H8179 NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS \'s house H1004 CMS , in the ears H241 of all H3605 NMS the people H5971 D-NMS .
11 When Michaiah H4321 the son H1121 CMS of Gemariah H1587 , the son H1121 CMS of Shaphan H8227 , had heard H8085 out of M-PREP the book H5612 all H3605 NMS the words H1697 CMP of the LORD H3068 EDS ,
12 Then he went down H3381 W-VQY3MS into H5921 PREP the king H4428 D-NMS \'s house H1004 CMS , into H5921 PREP the scribe H5608 \'s chamber H3957 : and , lo H2009 IJEC , all H3605 NMS the princes H8269 sat H3427 there H8033 ADV , even Elishama H476 the scribe H5608 , and Delaiah H1806 the son H1121 CMS of Shemaiah H8098 , and Elnathan H494 the son H1121 CMS of Achbor H5907 , and Gemariah H1587 the son H1121 CMS of Shaphan H8227 , and Zedekiah H6667 the son H1121 CMS of Hananiah H2608 , and all H3605 NMS the princes H8269 .
13 Then Michaiah H4321 declared H5046 W-VHY3MS unto them all H3605 NMS the words H1697 AMP that H834 RPRO he had heard H8085 , when Baruch H1263 read H7121 the book H5612 BD-NMS in the ears H241 of the people H5971 D-NMS .
14 Therefore all H3605 CMS the princes H8269 sent H7971 Jehudi H3065 the son H1121 CMS of Nethaniah H5418 , the son H1121 CMS of Shelemiah H8018 , the son H1121 CMS of Cushi H3570 , unto H413 PREP Baruch H1263 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Take H3947 in thine hand H3027 the roll H4039 wherein H834 RPRO thou hast read H7121 in the ears H241 of the people H5971 , and come H1980 . So Baruch H1263 the son H1121 CMS of Neriah H5374 took H3947 W-VQY3MS the roll H4039 in his hand H3027 B-CFS-3MS , and came H935 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP them .
15 And they said H559 W-VQY3MP unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Sit down H3427 now H4994 IJEC , and read H7121 W-VQY3MS it in our ears H241 B-CFS-1MP . So Baruch H1263 read H7121 W-VQY3MS it in their ears H241 .
16 Now it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when they had heard H8085 all H3605 NMS the words H1697 AMP , they were afraid H6342 both H413 PREP one H376 NMS and other H7453 NMS-3MS , and said H559 unto H413 PREP Baruch H1263 , We will surely tell H5046 the king H4428 of all H3605 NMS these H428 words H1697 AMP .
17 And they asked H7592 Baruch H1263 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Tell H5046 us now H4994 IJEC , How H349 didst thou write H3789 all H3605 NMS these H428 D-DPRO-3MP words H1697 AMP at his mouth H6310 ?
18 Then Baruch H1263 answered H559 W-VQY3MS them , He pronounced H7121 VQY3MS all H3605 NMS these H428 D-DPRO-3MP words H1697 AMP unto H413 PREP-1MS me with his mouth H6310 M-CMS-3MS , and I H589 W-PPRO-1MS wrote H3789 them with ink H1773 in H5921 PREP the book H5612 .
19 Then said H559 W-VQY3MP the princes H8269 unto H413 PREP Baruch H1263 , Go H1980 VQI2MS , hide H5641 thee , thou H859 PPRO-2MS and Jeremiah H3414 ; and let no H408 NPAR man H376 W-NMS know H3045 where H375 IGAT ye be .
20 And they went in H935 W-VQY3MP to H413 PREP the king H4428 D-NMS into the court H2691 , but they laid up H6485 the roll H4039 in the chamber H3957 of Elishama H476 the scribe H5608 , and told H5046 all H3605 NMS the words H1697 in the ears H241 of the king H4428 D-NMS .
21 So the king H4428 D-NMS sent H7971 W-VQY3MS Jehudi H3065 to fetch H3947 L-VQFC the roll H4039 : and he took H3947 W-VQY3MS it out of Elishama H476 the scribe H5608 \'s chamber H3957 . And Jehudi H3065 read H7121 it in the ears H241 of the king H4428 D-NMS , and in the ears H241 of all H3605 NMS the princes H8269 which stood H5975 beside H5921 M-PREP the king H4428 .
22 Now the king H4428 sat H3427 VQPMS in the winterhouse H1004 CMS in the ninth H8671 month H2320 BD-NMS : and there was a fire on the hearth H254 burning H1197 before H6440 L-CMP-3MS him .
23 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , that when Jehudi H3065 had read H7121 three H7969 MFS or four H702 leaves H1817 , he cut H7167 it with the penknife H8593 , and cast H7993 it into H413 PREP the fire H784 that H834 RPRO was on H413 PREP the hearth H254 , until H5704 PREP all H3605 NMS the roll H4039 was consumed H8552 in H5921 PREP the fire H784 that H834 RPRO was on H5921 PREP the hearth H254 .
24 Yet they were not H3808 W-NPAR afraid H6342 , nor H3808 W-NPAR rent H7167 their garments H899 , neither the king H4428 D-NMS , nor any H3605 NMS of his servants H5650 that heard H8085 all H3605 NMS these H428 words H1697 AMP .
25 Nevertheless H1571 W-CONJ Elnathan H494 and Delaiah H1806 and Gemariah H1587 had made intercession H6293 to the king H4428 that he would not H1115 L-NPAR burn H8313 the roll H4039 : but he would not H3808 W-NPAR hear H8085 them .
26 But the king H4428 D-NMS commanded H6680 Jerahmeel H3396 the son H1121 CMS of Hammelech H4429 , and Seraiah H8304 the son H1121 of Azriel H5837 , and Shelemiah H8018 the son H1121 CMS of Abdeel H5655 , to take H3947 L-VQFC Baruch H1263 the scribe H5608 and Jeremiah H3414 the prophet H5030 : but the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS hid H5641 them .
27 Then the word H1697 NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS came H1961 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP Jeremiah H3414 , after that H310 PREP the king H4428 D-NMS had burned H8313 the roll H4039 , and the words H1697 AMP which H834 RPRO Baruch H1263 wrote H3789 CMS at the mouth H6310 M-CMS of Jeremiah H3414 , saying H559 L-VQFC ,
28 Take H3947 VQI2MS thee again H7725 VQFC another H312 roll H4039 , and write H3789 in H5921 PREP it all H3605 NMS the former H7223 words H1697 AMP that H834 RPRO were H1961 VQQ3MP in H5921 PREP the first H7223 roll H4039 , which H834 RPRO Jehoiakim H3079 the king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 hath burned H8313 .
29 And thou shalt say H559 to H5921 W-PREP Jehoiakim H3079 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 , Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS ; Thou H859 PPRO-2MS hast burned H8313 this H2063 D-DFS roll H4039 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Why H4069 IPRO hast thou written H3789 therein H5921 PREP-3FS , saying H559 L-VQFC , The king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 LFS shall certainly come H935 VQI2MS and destroy H7843 this H2063 D-DFS land H776 D-GFS , and shall cause to cease H7673 from H4480 M-PREP-3FS thence man H120 NMS and beast H929 ?
30 Therefore H3651 L-ADV thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS of H5921 PREP Jehoiakim H3079 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 ; He shall have H1961 VQY3MS none H3808 NADV to sit H3427 VQPMS upon H5921 PREP the throne H3678 of David H1732 : and his dead body H5038 shall be H1961 VQY2MS cast out H7993 in the day H3117 B-AMS to the heat H2721 , and in the night H3915 BD-NMS to the frost H7140 .
31 And I will punish H6485 him and his seed H2233 NMS-3MS and his servants H5650 for their iniquity H5771 ; and I will bring H935 upon H5921 PREP-3MS them , and upon H5921 PREP-3MS the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 , and upon H413 W-PREP the men H376 NMS of Judah H3063 , all H3605 NMS the evil H7451 D-AFS that H834 RPRO I have pronounced H1696 VPQ1MS against H413 PREP-3MP them ; but they hearkened H8085 not H3808 W-NPAR .
32 Then took H3947 VQQ3MS Jeremiah H3414 another H312 roll H4039 , and gave H5414 it to H413 PREP Baruch H1263 the scribe H5608 , the son H1121 of Neriah H5374 ; who wrote H3789 therein H5921 PREP-3FS from the mouth H6310 M-CMS of Jeremiah H3414 all H3605 NMS the words H1697 CMP of the book H5612 which H834 RPRO Jehoiakim H3079 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 had burned H8313 in the fire H784 : and there were added H3254 besides H5750 W-ADV unto H5921 PREP-3MP them many H7227 AMP like H1992 words H1697 NMP .
