| [1]Thus sayde the Lorde: Go thy way and buye thee an earthen pitcher, and bryng foorth the senatours & chiefe priestes |
[1]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068, GoH1980[H8800] and getH7069[H8804] a potter'sH3335[H8802] earthenH2789 bottleH1228, and take of the ancientsH2205 of the peopleH5971, and of the ancientsH2205 of the priestsH3548; |
| [2]Unto the valley of the children of Hennom, which lyeth without the east gate, and shewe them there the wordes that I shall tell thee |
[2]And go forthH3318[H8804] unto the valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, which is by the entryH6607 of the eastH2777 gateH8179, and proclaimH7121[H8804] there the wordsH1697 that I shall tellH1696 theeH8762, |
| [3]And say thus vnto them, Heare the worde of the Lorde ye kinges of Iuda, and ye citezins of Hierusalem, thus saith the Lorde of hoastes the God of Israel: Beholde, I wyll bryng suche a plague vpon this place, that the eares of all that heare it shall glowe |
[3]And sayH559[H8804], HearH8085[H8798] ye the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, O kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, and inhabitantsH3427[H8802] of JerusalemH3389; Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will bringH935[H8688] evilH7451 upon this placeH4725, the which whosoever hearethH8085[H8802], his earsH241 shall tingleH6750.[H8799] |
| [4]And that because they haue forsaken me, and vnhalowed this place, and haue offered in it vnto straunge gods, whom neither they, their fathers, nor the kynges of Iuda haue knowen: they haue filled this place also with the blood of innocentes |
[4]Because they have forsakenH5800[H8804] me, and have estrangedH5234[H8762] this placeH4725, and have burned incenseH6999[H8762] in it unto otherH312 godsH430, whom neither they nor their fathersH1 have knownH3045[H8804], nor the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, and have filledH4390[H8804] this placeH4725 with the bloodH1818 of innocentsH5355; |
| [5]And they haue set vp an aulter vnto Baal, to burne their children for a burnt offring vnto Baal, whiche I neither commaunded nor charged them, neither thought once thervpon |
[5]They have builtH1129[H8804] also the high placesH1116 of BaalH1168, to burnH8313[H8800] their sonsH1121 with fireH784 for burnt offeringsH5930 unto BaalH1168, which I commandedH6680[H8765] not, nor spakeH1696[H8765] it, neither cameH5927[H8804] it into my mindH3820: |
| [6]Beholde therfore the time commeth (saith the Lorde) that this place shall no more be called Thopheth, nor the valley of the chyldren of Hennom, but the valley of slaughter |
[6]Therefore, behold, the daysH3117 comeH935[H8802], saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068, that this placeH4725 shall no more be calledH7121[H8735] TophetH8612, nor The valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, but The valleyH1516 of slaughterH2028. |
| [7]For in this place wyll I bryng to naught the counsayle of Iuda and Hierusalem, and kyll them downe with the sworde before their enemies: and I wyll deliuer them into the handes of them that seeke their liues, and their dead carkasses will I geue to be meate for the foules of the ayre, & the beastes of the fielde |
[7]And I will make voidH1238[H8804] the counselH6098 of JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389 in this placeH4725; and I will cause them to fallH5307[H8689] by the swordH2719 beforeH6440 their enemiesH341[H8802], and by the handsH3027 of them that seekH1245[H8764] their livesH5315: and their carcasesH5038 will I giveH5414[H8804] to be meatH3978 for the fowlsH5775 of the heavenH8064, and for the beastsH929 of the earthH776. |
| [8]And I will make this citie so desolate and despised, that whosoeuer goeth thereby shalbe abashed, and iest vpon her, because of all her plagues |
[8]And I will makeH7760[H8804] this cityH5892 desolateH8047, and an hissingH8322; every one that passethH5674[H8802] thereby shall be astonishedH8074[H8799] and hissH8319[H8799] because of all the plagues thereofH4347. |
| [9]I will feede them also with the flesh of their sonnes and their daughters, yea euery one shall eate vp another in the besieging & straytnesse wherewith their enemies [that seeke their liues] shall kepe them in |
[9]And I will cause them to eatH398[H8689] the fleshH1320 of their sonsH1121 and the fleshH1320 of their daughtersH1323, and they shall eatH398[H8799] every oneH376 the fleshH1320 of his friendH7453 in the siegeH4692 and straitnessH4689, wherewith their enemiesH341[H8802], and they that seekH1245[H8764] their livesH5315, shall straitenH6693 themH8686. |
| [10]And the pitcher shalt thou breake in the sight of the men that goeth with thee |
[10]Then shalt thou breakH7665[H8804] the bottleH1228 in the sightH5869 of the menH582 that goH1980 with theeH8802, |
| [11]And say vnto them, Thus saith the Lorde of hoastes: Euen so wyll I destroy this people and citie, as a man breaketh an earthen vessell that can not be made whole agayne: in Thopheth shall they be buried, for they shall haue none other place |
[11]And shalt sayH559[H8804] unto them, Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635; Even soH3602 will I breakH7665[H8799] this peopleH5971 and this cityH5892, as one breakethH7665[H8799] a potter'sH3335[H8802] vesselH3627, that cannotH3201[H8799] be made whole againH7495[H8736]: and they shall buryH6912[H8799] them in TophetH8612, till there be no placeH4725 to buryH6912.[H8800] |
| [12]Thus wyll I do vnto this place also saith the Lorde, and to them that dwel therin, yea I wyll make this citie as Thopheth |
[12]Thus will I doH6213[H8799] unto this placeH4725, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068, and to the inhabitantsH3427[H8802] thereof, and even makeH5414[H8800] this cityH5892 as TophetH8612: |
| [13]For the houses of Hierusalem, and the houses of the kynges of Iuda shalbe defiled like as Thopheth, and so shal al the houses in whose roofes they did sacrifice vnto all the hoast of heauen, and powred drinke offerings vnto straunge gods |
[13]And the housesH1004 of JerusalemH3389, and the housesH1004 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, shall be defiledH2931 as the placeH4725 of TophetH8612, because of all the housesH1004 upon whose roofsH1406 they have burned incenseH6999[H8765] unto all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064, and have poured outH5258[H8687] drink offeringsH5262 unto otherH312 godsH430. |
| [14]And so Ieremie came from Thopheth where the Lorde had sent hym to prophesie, and stoode in the court of the house of the Lorde, and spake to all the people |
[14]Then cameH935[H8799] JeremiahH3414 from TophetH8612, whither the LORDH3068 had sentH7971[H8804] him to prophesyH5012[H8736]; and he stoodH5975[H8799] in the courtH2691 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004; and saidH559[H8799] to all the peopleH5971, |
| [15]Thus saith the Lorde of hoastes the God of Israel: Beholde, I will bryng vpon this citie, and vpon euery towne about it, all the plagues that I haue deuised against them, because they haue ben obstinate, and would not obay my warninges |
[15]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will bringH935[H8688] upon this cityH5892 and upon all her townsH5892 all the evilH7451 that I have pronouncedH1696[H8765] against it, because they have hardenedH7185[H8689] their necksH6203, that they might not hearH8085[H8800] my wordsH1697. |
