Jeremiah 46:1 (NIRV) New International Reader's Version

1 A message came to me from the Lord. It was about the nations.
2 Here is what the Lord says about Egypt. Here is his message against the army of Pharaoh Neco. He was king of Egypt. Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylonia, won the battle over his army. That happened at Carchemish on the Euphrates River. It was in the fourth year that Jehoiakim was king of Judah. He was the son of Josiah. The message says,
3 "Egyptians, prepare your shields! Prepare large and small shields alike! March out for battle!
4 Get the horses and chariots ready to ride! Take up your battle positions! Put your helmets on! Shine up your spears! Put on your armor!
5 What do I see? The Egyptians are terrified. They are pulling back. Their soldiers are losing. They run away as fast as they can. They do not look back. There is terror on every side," announces the Lord.
6 "Those who run fast can't get away. Those who are strong can't escape. In the north by the Euphrates River they trip and fall.
7 "Who is this that rises like the Nile River? Who rises like rivers of rushing waters?
8 Egypt rises like the Nile River. It rises like rivers of rushing waters. Egypt says, 'I will rise and cover the earth. I'll destroy cities and their people.'
9 Charge, you horses! Drive fast, you chariot drivers! March on, you soldiers! March on, you men of Cush and Put who carry shields. March on, you men of Lydia who draw bows.
10 But that day belongs to me. I am the Lord who rules over all. It is a day for me to pay back my enemies. The sword will eat until it is satisfied. It will drink until it has no more thirst for blood. I am the Lord. I am the Lord who rules over all. I will offer a sacrifice. I will offer it in the land of the north by the Euphrates River.
11 "People of Egypt, go up to Gilead and get some healing lotion. But no matter what you try, you will not be healed. There isn't any healing for you.
12 The nations will hear about your shame. Your cries of pain will fill the earth. One soldier will trip over another. Both of them will fall down together."
13 Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylonia, was coming to attack Egypt. Here is the message the Lord spoke to me about it. He said,
14 "Egyptians, here is what I want you to announce in your land. Announce it in Migdol. Also announce it in Memphis and Tahpanhes. Say, 'Take up your battle positions! Get ready! The sword eats up those who are around you.'
15 Why are your soldiers lying on the ground? They can't stand, because I bring them down.
16 They will trip again and again. They will fall over one another. They will say, 'Get up. Let's go back home. Let's return to our own people and our own lands. Let's get away from the swords that will bring us great harm.'
17 The Egyptian soldiers will cry out, 'Pharaoh is our king. But he's only a loud noise. He has missed his chance to win the battle.'
18 "I am the King. My name is The Lord Who Rules Over All. Someone will come who is like Mount Tabor among the mountains. He is like Mount Carmel by the Mediterranean Sea. And that is just as sure as I am alive," announces the King.
19 "So pack your belongings, you who live in Egypt. You will be taken away from your land. Memphis will be completely destroyed. Its buildings will be broken down. No one will live there.
20 "Egypt is like a beautiful young cow. But Nebuchadnezzar is coming against her from the north. He will bite her like a fly.
21 Hired soldiers are in Egypt's army. They are like fat calves. All of them will turn and run away. They will not hold their positions. The day of trouble is coming on them. The time for them to be punished is near.
22 The Egyptians will hiss like a snake that is trying to get away. A powerful army will advance against them. Their enemies will come against them with axes. They will be like those who cut down trees.
23 Egypt is like a thick forest. But they will chop it down," announces the Lord. "There are more of them than there are locusts. In fact, they can't even be counted.
24 The nation of Egypt will be put to shame. It will be handed over to the people of the north."
25 The Lord who rules over all is the God of Israel. He says, "I am about to punish Amon, the god of Thebes. I will also punish Pharaoh. I will punish Egypt and its gods and kings. And I will punish those who depend on Pharaoh.
26 I will hand them over to those who are trying to kill them. I will give them to Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylonia, and his officers. But later, many people will live in Egypt again as in times past," announces the Lord.
27 "People of Jacob, do not be afraid. You are my servant. Israel, do not be terrified. I will bring you safely out of a place far away. I will bring your children back from the land where they were taken. Your people will have peace and security again. And no one will make them afraid.
28 People of Jacob, do not be afraid. You are my servant. I am with you," announces the Lord. "I will completely destroy all of the nations among which I scatter you. But I will not completely destroy you. I will correct you. But I will be fair. I will punish you in a way that is fair and right."
1 The word H1697 NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS which H834 RPRO came H1961 VQQ3MS to H413 PREP Jeremiah H3414 the prophet H5030 against H5921 PREP the Gentiles H1471 ;
2 Against Egypt H4714 , against H5921 PREP the army H2428 of Pharaoh Necho H6549 king H4428 NMS of Egypt H4714 EFS , which H834 RPRO was H1961 VQQ3MS by H5921 PREP the river H5104 Euphrates H6578 in Carchemish H3751 , which H834 RPRO Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 LFS smote H5221 in the fourth H7243 year H8141 B-CFS of Jehoiakim H3079 the son H1121 of Josiah H2977 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 .
3 Order H6186 ye the buckler H4043 NMS and shield H6793 , and draw near H5066 to battle H4421 .
4 Harness H631 the horses H5483 ; and get up H5927 , ye horsemen H6571 , and stand forth H3320 with your helmets H3553 ; furbish H4838 the spears H7420 , and put on H3847 the brigandines H5630 .
5 Wherefore H4069 IPRO have I seen H7200 VQQ1MS them H1992 PPRO-3MP dismayed H2844 and turned away H5472 back H268 ? and their mighty ones H1368 are beaten down H3807 VOY3MP , and are fled apace H4498 W-NMS , and look not back H6437 : for fear H4032 was round about H5439 M-ADV , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
6 Let not H408 NPAR the swift H7031 flee away H5127 , nor H408 ADV the mighty man H1368 escape H4422 ; they shall stumble H3782 , and fall H5307 toward the north H6828 by PREP the river H5104 Euphrates H6578 .
7 Who H4310 IPRO is this H2088 DPRO that cometh up H5927 VQY3MS as a flood H2975 , whose waters H4325 are moved H1607 as the rivers H5104 ?
8 Egypt H4714 EFS riseth up H5927 VQY3MS like a flood H2975 , and his waters H4325 NMD are moved H1607 like the rivers H5104 ; and he saith H559 W-VQY3MS , I will go up H5927 , and will cover H3680 the earth H776 GFS ; I will destroy H6 the city H5892 GFS and the inhabitants H3427 thereof .
9 Come up H5927 , ye horses H5483 ; and rage H1984 , ye chariots H7393 ; and let the mighty men H1368 come forth H3318 ; the Ethiopians H3568 EMS and the Libyans H6316 W-EMS , that handle H8610 the shield H4043 NMS ; and the Lydians H3866 , that handle H8610 and bend H1869 the bow H7198 .
10 For this H1931 D-PPRO-3MS is the day H3117 NUM-MS of the Lord H136 GOD H3069 of hosts H6635 , a day H3117 NMS of vengeance H5360 , that he may avenge H5358 him of his adversaries H6862 : and the sword H2719 GFS shall devour H398 , and it shall be satiate H7646 and made drunk H7301 with their blood H1818 : for H3588 CONJ the Lord H136 GOD H3069 of hosts H6635 hath a sacrifice H2077 NMS in the north H6828 NFS country H776 B-GFS by H413 PREP the river H5104 Euphrates H6578 .
11 Go up H5927 into Gilead H1568 , and take H3947 balm H6875 , O virgin H1330 , the daughter H1323 CFS of Egypt H4714 : in vain H7723 shalt thou use many H7235 medicines H7499 ; for thou shalt not H369 NPAR be cured H8585 NFS .
12 The nations H1471 NMP have heard H8085 VQQ3MP of thy shame H7036 , and thy cry H6682 hath filled H4390 VQQ3FS the land H776 D-GFS : for H3588 CONJ the mighty man H1368 hath stumbled H3782 against the mighty H1368 , and they are fallen H5307 VQQ3MP both H8147 together H3162 .
13 The word H1697 D-NMS that H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS spoke H1696 VPQ3MS to H413 PREP Jeremiah H3414 the prophet H5030 , how Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 LFS should come H935 L-VQFC and smite H5221 L-VHFC the land H776 GFS of Egypt H4714 .
14 Declare H5046 ye in Egypt H4714 , and publish H8085 in Migdol H4024 , and publish H8085 in Noph H5297 and in Tahpanhes H8471 : say H559 ye , Stand fast H3320 , and prepare H3559 thee ; for H3588 CONJ the sword H2719 GFS shall devour H398 VQQ3FS round about H5439 thee .
15 Why H4069 IPRO are thy valiant H47 men swept away H5502 ? they stood H5975 not H3808 NADV , because H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS did drive H1920 them .
16 He made many H7235 to fall H3782 VQPMS , yea H1571 CONJ , one H376 NMS fell H5307 upon H413 PREP another H7453 NMS-3MS : and they said H559 , Arise H6965 , and let us go again H7725 to H413 PREP our own people H5971 , and to H413 PREP the land H776 GFS of our nativity H4138 , from M-CMP the oppressing H3238 sword H2719 GFS .
17 They did cry H7121 there H8033 ADV , Pharaoh H6547 EMS king H4428 NMS of Egypt H4714 EFS is but a noise H7588 ; he hath passed H5674 the time appointed H4150 .
18 As I H589 PPRO-1MS live H2416 AMS , saith H5002 the King H4428 D-NMS , whose name H8034 CMS-3MS is the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 , Surely H3588 CONJ as Tabor H8396 is among the mountains H2022 , and as Carmel H3760 by the sea H3220 BD-NMS , so shall he come H935 VQY3MS .
19 O thou daughter H1323 CFS dwelling H3427 in Egypt H4714 , furnish H3627 thyself to go into captivity H1473 : for H3588 CONJ Noph H5297 shall be H1961 waste H8047 and desolate H3341 without H369 an inhabitant H3427 .
20 Egypt H4714 is like a very fair H3304 heifer H5697 , but destruction H7171 cometh H935 VQPMS ; it cometh H935 out of the north H6828 M-NFS .
21 Also H1571 CONJ her hired men H7916 are in the midst H7130 of her like fatted H4770 bullocks H5695 ; for H3588 CONJ they H1992 PPRO-3MP also H1571 CONJ are turned back H6437 , and are fled away H5127 together H3162 : they did not H3808 NADV stand H5975 , because H3588 CONJ the day H3117 NMS of their calamity H343 NMS-3MP was come H935 VQPMS upon H5921 PREP-3MP them , and the time H6256 NMS of their visitation H6486 .
22 The voice H6963 thereof shall go H1980 like a serpent H5175 ; for H3588 CONJ they shall march H1980 with an army H2428 , and come H935 VQQ3MP against her with axes H7134 , as hewers H2404 of wood H6086 .
23 They shall cut down H3772 her forest H3293 , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 EDS , though H3588 CONJ it cannot H3808 NADV be searched H2713 ; because H3588 CONJ they are more H7231 than the grasshoppers H697 , and are innumerable H369 W-NPAR .
24 The daughter H1323 CFS of Egypt H4714 shall be confounded H3001 ; she shall be delivered H5414 VNQ3FS into the hand H3027 B-CFS of the people H5971 NMS of the north H6828 .
25 The LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 , the God H430 CDP of Israel H3478 , saith H559 VQQ3MS ; Behold H2009 , I will punish H6485 the multitude H528 of No H4996 , and Pharaoh H6547 EMS , and Egypt H4714 EFS , with H5921 W-PREP their gods H430 , and their kings H4428 ; even Pharaoh H6547 EMS , and all them that trust H982 in him :
26 And I will deliver H5414 them into the hand H3027 B-CFS of those that seek H1245 their lives H5315 CFS-3MP , and into the hand H3027 of Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 LFS , and into the hand H3027 of his servants H5650 : and afterward H310 it shall be inhabited H7931 , as in the days H3117 of old H6924 NMS , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
27 But fear H3372 not H408 NPAR thou H859 W-PPRO-2MS , O my servant H5650 CMS-1MS Jacob H3290 , and be not H408 ADV dismayed H2865 , O Israel H3478 : for H3588 CONJ , behold H2009 , I will save H3467 thee from afar off H7350 , and thy seed H2233 CMS-2MS from the land H776 M-NFS of their captivity H7628 ; and Jacob H3290 shall return H7725 W-VQQ3MS , and be in rest H8252 and at ease H7599 W-VPQ3MS , and none H369 W-NPAR shall make him afraid H2729 .
28 Fear H3372 thou H859 PPRO-2MS not H408 NPAR , O Jacob H3290 my servant H5650 CMS-1MS , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 EDS : for H3588 CONJ I H589 PPRO-1MS am with H854 PART-2MS thee ; for H3588 CONJ I will make H6213 a full end H3617 of all H3605 the nations H1471 D-NMP whither H834 RPRO I have driven H5080 thee : but I will not H3808 NADV make H6213 a full end H3617 of thee , but correct H3256 thee in measure H4941 ; yet will I not H3808 NADV leave thee wholly H5352 unpunished H5352 .
