VERSION OF
The
Holy Bible book of
Jeremiah
Chapter Twenty-One
1 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,
2 Enquire, 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.
3 Then said Jeremiah unto them, Thus shall ye say to Zedekiah:
4 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.
5 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.
6 And I will smite the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast: they
shall die of a great pestilence.
7 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.
8 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.
9 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.
10 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.
11 And touching the house of the king of Judah, say, Hear ye the word of the
LORD;
12 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.
13 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?
14 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.
