CHAPTER 43
Jeremiah 43:1
1 And it came to pass, that when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking unto all
the people all the words of the LORD their God, for which the LORD their God
had sent him to them, even all these words, Jeremiah 43:2
2 Then spake Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and
all the proud men, saying unto Jeremiah, Thou speakest falsely:  the LORD our
God  hath not sent  thee to say,  Go  not into Egypt  to sojourn  there:
Jeremiah 43:3
3 But Baruch the son of Neriah setteth thee on against us, for to deliver us
into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they might put us to death, and carry us
away captives into Babylon.
Jeremiah 43:4
4 So Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, and all the
people, obeyed not the voice of the LORD, to dwell in the land of Judah.
Jeremiah 43:5
5 But Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, took all
the remnant of Judah, that were returned from all nations, whither they had
been driven, to dwell in the land  of Judah; Jeremiah 43:6
6 Even men, and women, and children, and the king's daughters, and every person
that Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had left with Gedaliah the son of
Ahikam  the son  of Shaphan,  and Jeremiah  the prophet,  and Baruch the son 
of Neriah.
Jeremiah 43:7
7 So they came into the land of Egypt: for they obeyed not the voice of the
LORD: thus came they even to Tahpanhes. Jeremiah 43:8
8 Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying, Jeremiah
43:9
9 Take great stones in thine hand, and hide them in the clay in the brickkiln,
which is at the entry of Pharaoh's house in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the men 
of Judah;
Jeremiah 43:10
10 And say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold,
I will send and take Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will
set  his throne  upon  these stones  that I have hid;  and he shall spread  his
royal pavilion  over them. Jeremiah 43:11
11 And when he cometh, he shall smite the land of Egypt, and deliver such as
are for death to death; and such as are for captivity to captivity; and such as
are for the sword to the sword.
Jeremiah 43:12
12 And I will kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt; and he shall
burn them, and carry them away captives: and he shall array himself with the
land of Egypt, as a shepherd putteth on his garment;  and he shall go forth
from thence in peace.
Jeremiah 43:13
13 He shall break also the images of Bethshemesh, that is in the land of Egypt;
and the houses of the gods of the Egyptians shall he burn with fire. CHAPTER 44
Jeremiah 44:1
1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews which dwell in the
land of Egypt, which dwell at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Noph, and in the
country of Pathros, saying,
Jeremiah 44:2
2 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Ye have seen all the evil
that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of Judah; and,
behold, this day they are a desolation,  and no man dwelleth  therein, Jeremiah
44:3
3 Because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger,
in that they went to burn incense, and to serve other gods, whom they knew not,
neither they, ye, nor your fathers. Jeremiah 44:4
4 Howbeit I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, rising early and
sending them, saying, Oh, do not this abominable thing that I hate. Jeremiah
44:5
5 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness,
to burn no incense unto other gods. Jeremiah 44:6
6 Wherefore my fury and mine anger was poured forth, and was kindled in the
cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are wasted and
desolate, as at this day.
Jeremiah 44:7
7 Therefore now thus saith the LORD, the God of hosts, the God of Israel;
Wherefore commit ye this great evil against your souls, to cut off from you man
and woman,  child  and suckling,  out  of Judah,  to leave  you none to remain;
Jeremiah 44:8
8 In that ye provoke me unto wrath with the works of your hands, burning
incense unto other gods in the land of Egypt, whither ye be gone to dwell, that
ye might cut yourselves off, and that ye might be a curse and a reproach  among
all the nations  of the earth? Jeremiah 44:9
9 Have ye forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the
kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and
the wickedness of your wives, which they have committed in the land  of Judah, 
and in the streets  of Jerusalem? Jeremiah 44:10
10 They are not humbled even unto this day, neither have they feared, nor
walked in my law, nor in my statutes, that I set before you and before your
fathers.
Jeremiah 44:11
11 Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will
set my face against you for evil, and to cut off all Judah. Jeremiah 44:12
12 And I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to go into
the land of Egypt to sojourn there, and they shall all be consumed, and fall in
the land of Egypt;  they shall even be consumed  by the sword  and by the
famine:  they shall die,  from the least  even unto the greatest,  by the sword
 and by the famine:  and they shall be an execration,  and an astonishment, 
and a curse,  and a reproach. Jeremiah 44:13
13 For I will punish them that dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished
Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence: Jeremiah 44:14
14 So that none of the remnant of Judah, which are gone into the land of Egypt
to sojourn there, shall escape or remain, that they should return into the land
of Judah, to the which they have a desire  to return  to dwell there: for none
shall return  but such as shall escape. Jeremiah 44:15
15 Then all the men which knew that their wives had burned incense unto other
gods, and all the women that stood by, a great multitude, even all the people
that dwelt in the land  of Egypt,  in Pathros,  answered  Jeremiah, saying,
Jeremiah 44:16
16 As for the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the LORD, we
will not hearken unto thee.
Jeremiah 44:17
17 But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth,
to burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto
her, as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings,  and our princes,  in the
cities  of Judah,  and in the streets  of Jerusalem: for then had we plenty  of
victuals,  and were well,  and saw  no evil. Jeremiah 44:18
18 But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour
out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed
by the sword and by the famine. Jeremiah 44:19
19 And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink
offerings unto her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink
offerings unto her, without our men? Jeremiah 44:20
20 Then Jeremiah said unto all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to
all the people which had given him that answer, saying, Jeremiah 44:21
21 The incense that ye burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of
Jerusalem, ye, and your fathers, your kings, and your princes, and the people
of the land, did not the LORD remember  them, and came  it not into his mind?
Jeremiah 44:22
22 So that the LORD could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings,
and because of the abominations which ye have committed; therefore is your land
a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse,  without an inhabitant,  as at
this day.
Jeremiah 44:23
23 Because ye have burned incense, and because ye have sinned against the LORD,
and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD, nor walked in his law, nor in his
statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil is happened unto you, as
at this day.
Jeremiah 44:24
24 Moreover Jeremiah said unto all the people, and to all the women, Hear the
word of the LORD, all Judah that are in the land of Egypt: Jeremiah 44:25
25 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying; Ye and your wives
have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hand, saying, We
will surely  perform  our vows  that we have vowed,  to burn incense  to the
queen  of heaven,  and to pour out  drink offerings  unto her: ye will surely 
accomplish  your vows,  and surely  perform  your vows. Jeremiah 44:26
26 Therefore hear ye the word of the LORD, all Judah that dwell in the land of
Egypt; Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith the LORD, that my name 
shall no more be named  in the mouth  of any man  of Judah  in all the land  of
Egypt,  saying,  The Lord  GOD  liveth. Jeremiah 44:27
27 Behold, I will watch over them for evil, and not for good: and all the men
of Judah that are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by
the famine, until there be an end of them. Jeremiah 44:28
28 Yet a small number that escape the sword shall return out of the land of
Egypt into the land of Judah, and all the remnant of Judah, that are gone into
the land  of Egypt  to sojourn  there, shall know  whose words  shall stand, 
mine, or theirs.
Jeremiah 44:29
29 And this shall be a sign unto you, saith the LORD, that I will punish you in
this place, that ye may know that my words shall surely stand against you for
evil:
Jeremiah 44:30
30 Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will give Pharaohhophra king of Egypt into
the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life; as I
gave Zedekiah  king  of Judah  into the hand  of Nebuchadrezzar  king  of
Babylon,  his enemy,  and that sought  his life. CHAPTER 45
Jeremiah 45:1
1 The word that Jeremiah the prophet spake unto Baruch the son of Neriah, when
he had written these words in a book at the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth 
year  of Jehoiakim  the son  of Josiah  king  of Judah,  saying, Jeremiah 45:2
2 Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, unto thee, O Baruch; Jeremiah 45:3
3 Thou didst say, Woe is me now! for the LORD hath added grief to my sorrow; I
fainted in my sighing, and I find no rest. Jeremiah 45:4
4 Thus shalt thou say unto him, The LORD saith thus; Behold, that which I have
built will I break down, and that which I have planted I will pluck up, even
this whole land.
Jeremiah 45:5
5 And seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not: for, behold, I will
bring evil upon all flesh, saith the LORD: but thy life will I give unto thee
for a prey in all places whither thou goest. CHAPTER 46
Jeremiah 46:1
1 The word of the LORD which came to Jeremiah the prophet against the Gentiles;
Jeremiah 46:2
2 Against Egypt, against the army of Pharaohnecho king of Egypt, which was by
the river Euphrates in Carchemish, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote
in the fourth  year  of Jehoiakim  the son  of Josiah  king  of Judah. Jeremiah
46:3
3 Order ye the buckler and shield, and draw near to battle. Jeremiah 46:4
4 Harness the horses; and get up, ye horsemen, and stand forth with your
helmets; furbish the spears, and put on the brigandines. Jeremiah 46:5
5 Wherefore have I seen them dismayed and turned away back? and their mighty
ones are beaten down, and are fled apace, and look not back: for fear was round
about, saith  the LORD.
Jeremiah 46:6
6 Let not the swift flee away, nor the mighty man escape; they shall stumble,
and fall toward the north by the river Euphrates. Jeremiah 46:7
7 Who is this that cometh up as a flood, whose waters are moved as the rivers?
Jeremiah 46:8
8 Egypt riseth up like a flood, and his waters are moved like the rivers; and
he saith, I will go up, and will cover the earth; I will destroy the city and
the inhabitants  thereof.
Jeremiah 46:9
9 Come up, ye horses; and rage, ye chariots; and let the mighty men come forth;
the Ethiopians and the Libyans, that handle the shield; and the Lydians, that
handle and bend  the bow. Jeremiah 46:10
10 For this is the day of the Lord GOD of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he
may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour, and it shall be
satiate and made drunk with their blood:  for the Lord  GOD  of hosts hath a
sacrifice  in the north  country  by the river  Euphrates. Jeremiah 46:11
11 Go up into Gilead, and take balm, O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in vain
shalt thou use many medicines; for thou shalt not be cured. Jeremiah 46:12
12 The nations have heard of thy shame, and thy cry hath filled the land: for
the mighty man hath stumbled against the mighty, and they are fallen both
together.
Jeremiah 46:13
13 The word that the LORD spake to Jeremiah the prophet, how Nebuchadrezzar
king of Babylon should come and smite the land of Egypt. Jeremiah 46:14
14 Declare ye in Egypt, and publish in Migdol, and publish in Noph and in
Tahpanhes: say ye, Stand fast, and prepare thee; for the sword shall devour
round about  thee.
Jeremiah 46:15
15 Why are thy valiant men swept away? they stood not, because the LORD did
drive them.
Jeremiah 46:16
16 He made many to fall, yea, one fell upon another: and they said, Arise, and
let us go again to our own people, and to the land of our nativity, from the
oppressing  sword.
Jeremiah 46:17
17 They did cry there, Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he hath passed the
time appointed.
Jeremiah 46:18
18 As I live, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts, Surely as Tabor
is among the mountains, and as Carmel by the sea, so shall he come. Jeremiah
46:19
19 O thou daughter dwelling in Egypt, furnish thyself to go into captivity: for
Noph shall be waste and desolate without an inhabitant. Jeremiah 46:20
20 Egypt is like a very fair heifer, but destruction cometh; it cometh out of
the north.
Jeremiah 46:21
21 Also her hired men are in the midst of her like fatted bullocks; for they
also are turned back, and are fled away together: they did not stand, because
the day of their calamity was come upon them, and the time  of their
visitation.
Jeremiah 46:22
22 The voice thereof shall go like a serpent; for they shall march with an
army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood. Jeremiah 46:23
23 They shall cut down her forest, saith the LORD, though it cannot be
searched; because they are more than the grasshoppers, and are innumerable.
Jeremiah 46:24
24 The daughter of Egypt shall be confounded; she shall be delivered into the
hand of the people of the north. Jeremiah 46:25
25 The LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saith; Behold, I will punish the
multitude of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with their gods, and their kings; even
Pharaoh,  and all them that trust  in him: Jeremiah 46:26
26 And I will deliver them into the hand of those that seek their lives, and
into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his
servants: and afterward it shall be inhabited, as in the days  of old, saith 
the LORD.
Jeremiah 46:27
27 But fear not thou, O my servant Jacob, and be not dismayed, O Israel: for,
behold, I will save thee from afar off, and thy seed from the land of their
captivity; and Jacob shall return, and be in rest  and at ease,  and none shall
make him afraid.
Jeremiah 46:28
28 Fear thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith the LORD: for I am with thee; for I
will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee: but I will
not make a full end of thee, but correct thee in measure;  yet will I not leave
thee wholly  unpunished.
