Then said ^{559 , 8799} the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ unto me, Though Moses ⁴⁸⁷² and Samuel ⁸⁰⁵⁰ stood ^{5975 , 8799} before ⁶⁴⁴⁰ me, yet my mind ⁵³¹⁵ could not be toward this people ⁵⁹⁷¹ : cast them out ^{7971 , 8761} of my sight ⁶⁴⁴⁰ , and let them go forth ^{3318 , 8799} .

And it shall come to pass, if they say ^{559 , 8799} unto thee, Whither shall we go forth ^{3318 , 8799} ? then thou shalt tell ^{559 , 8804} them, Thus saith ^{559 , 8804} the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ ; Such as are for death ⁴¹⁹⁴ , to death ⁴¹⁹⁴ ; and such as are for the sword ²⁷¹⁹ , to the sword ²⁷¹⁹ ; and such as are for the famine ⁷⁴⁵⁸ , to the famine ⁷⁴⁵⁸ ; and such as are for the captivity ⁷⁶²⁸ , to the captivity ⁷⁶²⁸ .

And I will appoint ^{6485 , 8804} over them four ⁷⁰² kinds ⁴⁹⁴⁰ , saith ^{5002 , 8803} the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ : the sword ²⁷¹⁹ to slay ^{2026 , 8800} , and the dogs ³⁶¹¹ to tear ^{5498 , 8800} , and the fowls ⁵⁷⁷⁵ of the heaven ⁸⁰⁶⁴ , and the beasts ⁹²⁹ of the earth ⁷⁷⁶ , to devour ^{398 , 8800} and destroy ^{7843 , 8687} . [kinds: Heb. families]

And I will cause ^{5414 , 8804} them to be removed ^{2189 , 8675 , 2113} into all kingdoms ⁴⁴⁶⁷ of the earth ⁷⁷⁶ , because ¹⁵⁵⁸ of Manasseh ⁴⁵¹⁹ the son ¹¹²¹ of Hezekiah ³¹⁶⁹ king ⁴⁴²⁸ of Judah ³⁰⁶³ , for that which he did ^{6213 , 8804} in Jerusalem ³³⁸⁹ . [cause...: Heb. give them for a removing]

For who shall have pity ^{2550 , 8799} upon thee, O Jerusalem ³³⁸⁹ ? or who shall bemoan ^{5110 , 8799} thee? or who shall go aside ^{5493 , 8799} to ask ^{7592 , 8800} how thou doest ⁷⁹⁶⁵ ? [how...: Heb. of thy peace?]

Thou hast forsaken ^{5203 , 8804} me, saith ^{5002 , 8803} the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ , thou art gone ^{3212 , 8799} backward ²⁶⁸ : therefore will I stretch out ^{5186 , 8686} my hand ³⁰²⁷ against thee, and destroy ^{7843 , 8686} thee; I am weary ^{3811 , 8738} with repenting ^{5162 , 8736} .

And I will fan ^{2219 , 8799} them with a fan ⁴²¹⁴ in the gates ⁸¹⁷⁹ of the land ⁷⁷⁶ ; I will bereave ^{7921 , 8765} them of children, I will destroy ^{6 , 8765} my people ⁵⁹⁷¹ , since they return ^{7725 , 8804} not from their ways ¹⁸⁷⁰ . [children: or, whatsoever is dear]

Their widows ⁴⁹⁰ are increased ^{6105 , 8804} to me above the sand ²³⁴⁴ of the seas ³²²⁰ : I have brought ^{935 , 8689} upon them against the mother ⁵¹⁷ of the young men ⁹⁷⁰ a spoiler ^{7703 , 8802} at noonday ⁶⁶⁷² : I have caused him to fall ^{5307 , 8689} upon it suddenly ⁶⁵⁹⁷ , and terrors ⁹²⁸ upon the city ⁵⁸⁹² . [the mother...: or, the mother city a young man spoiling, etc, or, the mother and the young men]

She that hath borne ^{3205 , 8802} seven ⁷⁶⁵¹ languisheth ^{535 , 8797} : she hath given up ^{5301 , 8804} the ghost ⁵³¹⁵ ; her sun ⁸¹²¹ is gone ^{935 , 8804} down while it was yet day ^{3119 , 8676 , 3117} : she hath been ashamed ^{954 , 8804} and confounded ^{2659 , 8804} : and the residue ⁷⁶¹¹ of them will I deliver ^{5414 , 8799} to the sword ²⁷¹⁹ before ⁶⁴⁴⁰ their enemies ^{341 , 8802} , saith ^{5002 , 8803} the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ .

Woe ¹⁸⁸ is me, my mother ⁵¹⁷ , that thou hast borne ^{3205 , 8804} me a man ³⁷⁶ of strife ⁷³⁷⁹ and a man ³⁷⁶ of contention ⁴⁰⁶⁶ to the whole earth ⁷⁷⁶ ! I have neither lent on usury ^{5383 , 8804} , nor men have lent to me on usury ^{5383 , 8804} ; yet every one of them doth curse ^{7043 , 8764} me.

The LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ said ^{559 , 8804} , Verily ^{3808 , 518} it shall be well ²⁸⁹⁶ with thy remnant ^{8281 , 8765 , 8675 , 8293} ; verily ⁵¹⁸ I will cause the enemy ^{341 , 8802} to entreat ^{6293 , 8689} thee well in the time ⁶²⁵⁶ of evil ⁷⁴⁵¹ and in the time ⁶²⁵⁶ of affliction ⁶⁸⁶⁹ . [cause...: or, intreat the enemy for thee]

Shall iron ¹²⁷⁰ break ^{7489 , 8799} the northern ⁶⁸²⁸ iron ¹²⁷⁰ and the steel ⁵¹⁷⁸ ?

Thy substance ²⁴²⁸ and thy treasures ²¹⁴ will I give ^{5414 , 8799} to the spoil ⁹⁵⁷ without price ⁴²⁴² , and that for all thy sins ²⁴⁰³ , even in all thy borders ¹³⁶⁶ .

And I will make thee to pass ^{5674 , 8689} with thine enemies ^{341 , 8802} into a land ⁷⁷⁶ which thou knowest ^{3045 , 8804} not: for a fire ⁷⁸⁴ is kindled ^{6919 , 8804} in mine anger ⁶³⁹ , which shall burn ^{3344 , 8714} upon you.

O LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ , thou knowest ^{3045 , 8804} : remember ^{2142 , 8798} me, and visit ^{6485 , 8798} me, and revenge ^{5358 , 8734} me of my persecutors ^{7291 , 8802} ; take me not away ^{3947 , 8799} in thy longsuffering ^{639 , 750} : know ^{3045 , 8798} that for thy sake I have suffered ^{5375 , 8800} rebuke ²⁷⁸¹ .

Thy words ¹⁶⁹⁷ were found ^{4672 , 8738} , and I did eat ^{398 , 8799} them; and thy word ¹⁶⁹⁷ was unto me the joy ⁸³⁴² and rejoicing ⁸⁰⁵⁷ of mine heart ³⁸²⁴ : for I am called ^{7121 , 8738} by thy name ⁸⁰³⁴ , O LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ God ⁴³⁰ of hosts ⁶⁶³⁵ . [I am...: Heb. thy name is called upon me]

I sat ^{3427 , 8804} not in the assembly ⁵⁴⁷⁵ of the mockers ^{7832 , 8764} , nor rejoiced ^{5937 , 8799} ; I sat ^{3427 , 8804} alone ⁹¹⁰ because ⁶⁴⁴⁰ of thy hand ³⁰²⁷ : for thou hast filled ^{4390 , 8765} me with indignation ²¹⁹⁵ .

Why is my pain ³⁵¹¹ perpetual ⁵³³¹ , and my wound ⁴³⁴⁷ incurable ^{605 , 8803} , which refuseth ^{3985 , 8765} to be healed ^{7495 , 8736} ? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar ³⁹¹ , and as waters ⁴³²⁵ that fail ^{539 , 8738} ? [fail: Heb. be not sure?]

Therefore thus saith ^{559 , 8804} the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ , If thou return ^{7725 , 8799} , then will I bring thee again ^{7725 , 8686} , and thou shalt stand ^{5975 , 8799} before ⁶⁴⁴⁰ me: and if thou take forth ^{3318 , 8686} the precious ³³⁶⁸ from the vile ^{2151 , 8802} , thou shalt be as my mouth ⁶³¹⁰ : let them return ^{7725 , 8799} unto thee; but return ^{7725 , 8799} not thou unto them.

And I will make ^{5414 , 8804} thee unto this people ⁵⁹⁷¹ a fenced ^{1219 , 8803} brasen ⁵¹⁷⁸ wall ²³⁴⁶ : and they shall fight ^{3898 , 8738} against thee, but they shall not prevail ^{3201 , 8799} against thee: for I am with thee to save ^{3467 , 8687} thee and to deliver ^{5337 , 8687} thee, saith ^{5002 , 8803} the LORD ³⁰⁶⁸ .
