1
In the beginning
of the reign
of Zedekiah
the son
of Josiah,
king
of Judah,
this
word
came
to Jeremiah
from the LORD,
saying--
2
thus
says
the LORD
to me-- "Make
for yourself bonds
and yokes
and put
them on your neck,
3
and send
word
to the
king
of Edom,
to the
king
of Moab,
to the
king
of the sons
of Ammon,
to the
king
of Tyre
and
to the
king
of Sidon
by the messengers
who come
to Jerusalem
to Zedekiah
king
of Judah.
4
"Command
them to go to their masters,
saying,
'Thus
says
the LORD
of hosts,
the God
of Israel,
thus
you shall say
to your masters,
5
"I have made
the earth,
the men
and the beasts
which
are on the face
of the earth
by My great
power
and by My outstretched
arm,
and I will give
it to the one who
is pleasing
in My sight.
6
"Now
I have given
all
these
lands
into the hand
of Nebuchadnezzar
king
of Babylon,
My servant,
and
I have given
him also
the wild animals
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
will make him their servant.
8
"It will be, that the nation
or the
king
dom
which
will not serve
him, Nebuchadnezzar
king
of Babylon,
and
which
will not put
its neck
under the yoke
of the
king
of Babylon,
I will punish
that nation
with the sword,
with famine
and with pestilence,"
declares
the LORD,
"until
I have destroyed
it by his hand.
9
"But as for you, do not listen
to your prophets,
your diviners,
your dreamers,
your soothsayers
or your sorcerers
who
speak
to you, saying,
'You will not serve
the king
of Babylon.'
10
"For they prophesy
a lie
to you in order
to remove you far
from your land;
and I will drive
you out and you will perish.
11
"But the nation
which
will bring
its neck
under the yoke
of the king
of Babylon
and serve
him, I will let remain
on its land,"
declares
the LORD,
"and they will till
it and dwell
in it."'"
12
I spoke
words
like all
these
to Zedekiah
king
of Judah,
saying,
"Bring
your necks
under the yoke
of the
king
of Babylon
and serve
him and his people,
and live!
13
"Why
will you die,
you and your people,
by the sword,
famine
and pestilence,
as the LORD
has spoken
to that nation
which
will not serve
the king
of Babylon?
14
"So do not listen
to the words
of the prophets
who speak
to you, saying,
'You will not serve
the king
of Babylon,'
for they prophesy
a lie
to you;
15
for I have not sent
them," declares
the LORD,
"but they prophesy
falsely
in My name,
in order
that I may drive
you out and that you may perish,
you and the prophets
who prophesy
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 prophesy
to you,
saying,
'Behold,
the vessels
of the LORD'S
house
will now
shortly
be brought again
from Babylon';
for they are prophesying
a lie
to you.
17
"Do not listen
to them; serve
the king
of Babylon,
and live!
Why
should this
city
become
a ruin?
18
"But if
they are prophets,
and if
the word
of
the LORD
is with them, let them now
entreat
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,
concerning
the sea,
concerning
the stands
and
concerning
the rest
of the vessels
that are left
in this
city,
20
which
Nebuchadnezzar
king
of Babylon
did not take
when he carried into exile
Jeconiah
the son
of Jehoiakim,
king
of Judah
,
from Jerusalem
to Babylon,
and all
the nobles
of Judah
and Jerusalem.
21
"Yes,
thus
says
the LORD
of hosts,
the God
of Israel,
concerning
the vessels
that are left
in the house
of
the LORD
and
in the house
of the king
of Judah
and in Jerusalem,
22
'
They will be carried
to Babylon
and they will be there
until
the day
I visit
them,' declares
the LORD.
'
Then I will bring them back
and restore
them to this
place.'"
