Book 13 : NEVIIM - JEREMIAH - Chapter 001

01:001

THE WORDS of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests that were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin

01:002

to whom the word of HaShem came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign

01:003

It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, unto the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, unto the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month

01:004

And the word of HaShem came unto me, saying

01:005

Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee; I have appointed thee a prophet unto the nations

01:006

Then said I: 'Ah, L-rd GOD! behold, I cannot speak; for I am a child.

01:007

But HaShem said unto me: say not: I am a child; for to whomsoever I shall send thee thou shalt go, and whatsoever I shall command thee thou shalt speak

01:008

Be not afraid of them; for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith HaShem

01:009

Then HaShem put forth His hand, and touched my mouth; and HaShem said unto me: Behold, I have put My words in thy mouth

01:010

See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out and to pull down, and to destroy and to overthrow; to build, and to plant

01:011

Moreover the word of HaShem came unto me, saying: 'Jeremiah, what seest thou?' And I said: 'I see a rod of an almond-tree.

01:012

Then said HaShem unto me: 'Thou hast well seen; for I watch over My word to perform it.

01:013

And the word of HaShem came unto me the second time, saying: 'What seest thou?' And I said: 'I see a seething pot; and the face thereof is from the north.

01:014

Then HaShem said unto me: 'Out of the north the evil shall break forth upon all the inhabitants of the land

01:015

For, lo, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north, saith HaShem; and they shall come, and they shall set every one his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all the walls thereof round about, and against all the cities of Judah

01:016

And I will utter My judgments against them touching all their wickedness; in that they have forsaken me, and have offered unto other gods, and worshipped the work of their own hands

01:017

Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak unto them all that I command thee; be not dismayed at them, lest I dismay thee before them

01:018

For, behold, I have made thee this day a fortified city, and an iron pillar, and brazen walls, against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against the princes thereof, against the priests thereof, and against the people of the land

01:019

And they shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail against thee; For I am with thee, saith HaShem, to deliver thee.
