Book 13 : NEVIIM - JEREMIAH - Chapter 025

25:001

The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, that was the first year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon

25:002

which Jeremiah the prophet spoke unto all the people of Judah, and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying

25:003

From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, even unto this day, these three and twenty years, the word of HaShem hath come unto me, and I have spoken unto you, speaking betimes and often; but ye have not hearkened

25:004

And HaShem hath sent unto you all His servants the prophets, sending them betimes and often--but ye have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear-

25:005

saying: 'Return ye now every one from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that HaShem hath given unto you and to your fathers, for ever and ever

25:006

and go not after other gods to serve them, and to worship them, and provoke Me not with the work of your hands, and I will do you no hurt.

25:007

Yet ye have not hearkened unto Me, saith HaShem; that ye might provoke Me with the work of your hands to your own hurt

25:008

Therefore thus saith HaShem of hosts: Because ye have not heard My words

25:009

behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, saith HaShem, and I will send unto Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, My servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations round about; and I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual desolations

25:010

Moreover I will cause to cease from among them the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the lamp

25:011

And this whole land shall be a desolation, and a waste; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years

25:012

And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, saith HaShem, for their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans; and I will make it perpetual desolations

25:013

And I will bring upon that land all My words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah hath prophesied against all the nations

25:014

For many nations and great kings shall make bondmen of them also; and I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the work of their own hands

25:015

For thus saith HaShem, the G-d of Israel, unto me: Take this cup of the wine of fury at My hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send thee, to drink it

25:016

And they shall drink, and reel to and fro, and be like madmen, because of the sword that I will send among them.-

25:017

Then took I the cup of HaShem'S hand, and made all the nations to drink, unto whom HaShem had sent me

25:018

Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, and the kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them an appalment, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse; as it is this day

25:019

Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, and his princes, and all his people

25:020

and all the mingled people; and all the kings of the land of Uz, and all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and Ashkelon, and Gaza, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod

25:021

Edom, and Moab, and the children of Ammon

25:022

and all the kings of Tyre, and all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the isle which is beyond the sea

25:023

Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all that have the corners of their hair polled

25:024

and all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mingled people that dwell in the wilderness

25:025

and all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes

25:026

and all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world, which are upon the face of the earth. --And the king of Sheshach shall drink after them

25:027

And thou shalt say unto them: Thus saith HaShem of hosts, the G-d of Israel: Drink ye, and be drunken, and spew, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you

25:028

And it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at thy hand to drink, then shalt thou say unto them: Thus saith HaShem of hosts: Ye shall surely drink

25:029

For, lo, I begin to bring evil on the city whereupon My name is called, and should ye be utterly unpunished? Ye shall not be unpunished; for I will call for a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, saith HaShem of hosts

25:030

Therefore prophesy thou against them all these words, and say unto them: HaShem doth roar from on high, and utter His voice from His holy habitation; He doth mightily roar because of His fold; He giveth a shout, as they that tread the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth

25:031

A noise is come even to the end of the earth; for HaShem hath a controversy with the nations, He doth plead with all flesh; as for the wicked, He hath given them to the sword, saith HaShem

25:032

Thus saith HaShem of hosts: Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great storm shall be raised up from the uttermost parts of the earth

25:033

And the slain of HaShem shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth; they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the face of the ground

25:034

Wail, ye shepherds, and cry; and wallow yourselves in the dust, ye leaders of the flock; for the days of your slaughter are fully come, and I will break you in pieces, and ye shall fall like a precious vessel

25:035

And the shepherds shall have no way to flee, nor the leaders of the flock to escape

25:036

Hark! the cry of the shepherds, and the wailing of the leaders of the flock! For HaShem despoileth their pasture

25:037

And the peaceable folds are brought to silence because of the fierce anger of HaShem

25:038

He hath forsaken His covert, as the lion; for their land is become a waste because of the fierceness of the oppressing sword, and because of His fierce anger
