Jeremiah 27:2 (RSV) Revised Standard Version

1 In the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the LORD.
2 Thus the LORD said to me: "Make yourself thongs and yoke-bars, and put them on your neck.
3 Send word to the king of Edom, the king of Moab, the king of the sons of Ammon, the king of Tyre, and the king of Sidon by the hand of the envoys who have come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah.
4 Give them this charge for their masters: `Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: This is what you shall say to your masters:
5 "It is I who by my great power and my outstretched arm have made the earth, with the men and animals that are on the earth, and I give it to whomever it seems right to me.
6 Now I have given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, my servant, and I have given him also the beasts of the field to serve him.
7 All the nations shall serve him and his son and his grandson, until the time of his own land comes; then many nations and great kings shall make him their slave.
8 "`"But if any nation or kingdom will not serve this Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, I will punish that nation with the sword, with famine, and with pestilence, says the LORD, until I have consumed it by his hand.
9 So do not listen to your prophets, your diviners, your dreamers, your soothsayers, or your sorcerers, who are saying to you, `You shall not serve the king of Babylon.'
10 For it is a lie which they are prophesying to you, with the result that you will be removed far from your land, and I will drive you out, and you will perish.
11 But any nation which will bring its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serve him, I will leave on its own land, to till it and dwell there, says the LORD."'"
12 To Zedekiah king of Judah I spoke in like manner: "Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and live.
13 Why will you and your people die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence, as the LORD has spoken concerning any nation which will not serve the king of Babylon?
14 Do not listen to the words of the prophets who are saying to you, `You shall not serve the king of Babylon,' for it is a lie which they are prophesying to you.
15 I have not sent them, says the LORD, but they are prophesying falsely in my name, with the result that I will drive you out and you will perish, you and the prophets who are prophesying to you."
16 Then I spoke to the priests and to all this people, saying, "Thus says the LORD: Do not listen to the words of your prophets who are prophesying to you, saying, `Behold, the vessels of the LORD's house will now shortly be brought back from Babylon,' for it is a lie which they are prophesying to you.
17 Do not listen to them; serve the king of Babylon and live. Why should this city become a desolation?
18 If they are prophets, and if the word of the LORD is with them, then let them intercede with the LORD of hosts, that the vessels which are left in the house of the LORD, in the house of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem may not go to Babylon.
19 For thus says the LORD of hosts concerning the pillars, the sea, the stands, and the rest of the vessels which are left in this city,
20 which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did not take away, when he took into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, and all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem --
21 thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning the vessels which are left in the house of the LORD, in the house of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem:
22 They shall be carried to Babylon and remain there until the day when I give attention to them, says the LORD. Then I will bring them back and restore them to this place."
1 In the beginning H7225 of the reign H4467 of Jehoiakim H3079 the son H1121 of Josiah H2977 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 came H1961 VQQ3MS this H2088 D-PMS word H1697 D-NMS unto H413 PREP Jeremiah H3414 from the LORD H3068 EDS , saying H559 L-VQFC ,
2 Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS to H413 PREP-1MS me ; Make H6213 VQI2MS thee bonds H4147 and yokes H4133 , and put H5414 them upon H5921 PREP thy neck H6677 ,
3 And send H7971 them to H413 PREP the king H4428 NMS of Edom H123 , and to H413 PREP the king H4428 NMS of Moab H4124 , and to H413 PREP the king H4428 NMS of the Ammonites H1121 , and to H413 PREP the king H4428 NMS of Tyrus H6865 , and to the king H4428 NMS of Zidon H6721 , by the hand H3027 B-CFS of the messengers H4397 which come H935 to Jerusalem H3389 unto H413 PREP Zedekiah H6667 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 ;
4 And command H6680 them to say H559 L-VQFC unto H413 PREP their masters H113 , Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 , the God H430 CDP of Israel H3478 ; Thus H3541 shall ye say H559 VQY2MP unto H413 PREP your masters H113 ;
5 I H595 PPRO-1MS have made H6213 VQQ1MS the earth H776 D-GFS , the man H120 D-NMS and the beast H929 D-NFS that H834 RPRO are upon H5921 PREP the ground H776 D-GFS , by my great H1419 D-AMS power H3581 and by my outstretched H5186 arm H2220 , and have given H5414 it unto whom H834 RPRO it seemed H5869 meet H3474 unto me .
6 And now H6258 W-ADV have I H595 PPRO-1MS given H5414 VQQ1MS all H3605 NMS these H428 D-DPRO-3MP lands H776 into the hand H3027 B-CFS of Nebuchadnezzar H5019 the king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 LFS , my servant H5650 CMS-1MS ; and the beasts H2416 CFS of the field H7704 D-NMS have I given H5414 VQQ1MS him also H1571 W-CONJ to serve H5647 him .
7 And all H3605 NMS nations H1471 D-NMP shall serve H5647 him , and his son H1121 CMS-3MS , and his son H1121 CMS-3MS \'s son H1121 CMS-3MS , until H5704 PREP the very time H6256 NMS of his land H776 come H935 : and then H1571 CONJ many H7227 AMP nations H1471 NMP and great H1419 kings H4428 shall serve H5647 themselves of him H1931 PPRO-3MS .
8 And it shall come to pass H1961 W-VQQ3MS , that the nation H1471 and kingdom H4467 which H834 RPRO will not H3808 ADV serve H5647 the same Nebuchadnezzar H5019 the king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 LFS , and that H834 RPRO will not H3808 ADV put H5414 VHFA their neck H6677 CMS-3MS under the yoke H5923 of the king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 LFS , that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS nation H1471 will I punish H6485 , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 EDS , with the sword H2719 , and with the famine H7458 , and with the pestilence H1698 , until H5704 PREP I have consumed H8552 them by his hand H3027 B-CFS-3MS .
9 Therefore hearken H8085 not H408 NPAR ye H859 W-PPRO-2MP to H413 PREP your prophets H5030 , nor to H413 PREP your diviners H7080 , nor to H413 PREP your dreamers H2472 , nor to H413 PREP your enchanters H6049 , nor to H413 PREP your sorcerers H3786 , which H834 RPRO speak H559 unto H413 PREP you , saying H559 L-VQFC , Ye shall not H3808 NADV serve H5647 the king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 :
10 For H3588 CONJ they H1992 PPRO-3MP prophesy H5012 a lie H8267 NMS unto you , to H4616 L-CONJ remove you far H7368 from M-PREP your land H127 ; and that I should drive you out H5080 , and ye should perish H6 .
11 But the nations H1471 that H834 RPRO bring H935 their neck H6677 CMS-3MS under the yoke H5923 of the king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 LFS , and serve H5647 him , those will I let remain H5117 still in H5921 PREP their own land H127 , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 EDS ; and they shall till H5647 it , and dwell H3427 therein .
12 I spoke H1696 VPQ1MS also to H413 W-PREP Zedekiah H6667 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 according to all H3605 these H428 D-DPRO-3MP words H1697 AMP , saying H559 L-VQFC , Bring H935 your necks H6677 under the yoke H5923 of the king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 LFS , and serve H5647 him and his people H5971 , and live H2421 .
13 Why H4100 L-IPRO will ye die H4191 , thou H859 PPRO-2MS and thy people H5971 , by the sword H2719 , by the famine H7458 , and by the pestilence H1698 , as H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS hath spoken H1696 VPQ3MS against H413 PREP the nation H1471 that H834 RPRO will not H3808 ADV serve H5647 the king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 ?
14 Therefore hearken H8085 not H408 unto H413 PREP the words H1697 CMP of the prophets H5030 that speak H559 D-VQPMP unto H413 PREP you , saying H559 L-VQFC , Ye shall not H3808 NADV serve H5647 the king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 LFS : for H3588 CONJ they H1992 PPRO-3MP prophesy H5012 a lie H8267 NMS unto you .
15 For H3588 CONJ I have not H3808 NADV sent H7971 them , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 EDS , yet they H1992 W-PPRO-3MP prophesy H5012 a lie H8267 in my name H8034 ; that H4616 L-CONJ I might drive you out H5080 , and that ye might perish H6 , ye H859 PPRO-2MS , and the prophets H5030 that prophesy H5012 unto you .
16 Also I spoke H1696 VPQ1MS to H413 PREP the priests H3548 and to H413 PREP all H3605 NMS this H2088 D-PMS people H5971 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS ; Hearken H8085 not H408 ADV to H413 PREP the words H1697 CMP of your prophets H5030 that prophesy H5012 unto you , saying H559 L-VQFC , Behold H2009 IJEC , the vessels H3627 of the LORD H3068 EDS \'s house H1004 CMS shall now H6258 ADV shortly H4120 be brought again H7725 from Babylon H894 : for H3588 CONJ they H1992 PPRO-3MP prophesy H5012 a lie H8267 NMS unto you .
17 Hearken H8085 not H408 NPAR unto H413 PREP-3MP them ; serve H5647 the king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 LFS , and live H2421 W-VQI2MP : wherefore H4100 L-IPRO should this H2063 D-DFS city H5892 D-GFS be H1961 laid waste H2723 ?
18 But if H518 W-PART they H1992 PPRO-3MP be prophets H5030 , and if H518 W-PART the word H1697 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS be H3426 PART with H854 PREP-3MP them , let them now H4994 IJEC make intercession H6293 to the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS of hosts H6635 , that the vessels H3627 D-NMP which are left H3498 in the house H1004 W-NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , and in the house H1004 W-NMS of the king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 , and at Jerusalem H3389 , go H935 not H1115 L-NPAR to Babylon H894 .
19 For H3588 CONJ thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 concerning H413 PREP the pillars H5982 , and concerning H5921 W-PREP the sea H3220 D-NMS , and concerning H5921 W-PREP the bases H4350 , and concerning H5921 W-PREP the residue H3499 of the vessels H3627 D-NMP that remain H3498 in this H2063 city H5892 BD-NFS ,
20 Which H834 RPRO Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 NMS of Babylon H894 LFS took H3947 not H3808 ADV , when he carried away captive H1540 Jeconiah H3204 the son H1121 CMS of Jehoiakim H3079 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 from Jerusalem H3389 to Babylon H894 , and all H3605 NMS the nobles H2715 of Judah H3063 and Jerusalem H3389 ;
21 Yea H3588 CONJ , thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 , the God H430 CDP of Israel H3478 , concerning H5921 PREP the vessels H3627 D-NMP that remain H3498 in the house H1004 W-NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , and in the house H1004 W-NMS of the king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 and of Jerusalem H3389 ;
22 They shall be carried H935 to Babylon H894 , and there H8033 shall they be H1961 until H5704 PREP the day H3117 NMS that I visit H6485 them , saith H5002 the LORD H3068 EDS ; then will I bring them up H5927 , and restore H7725 them to H413 PREP this H2008 place H4725 D-NMS .
