Book 24 : JEREMIAH - Chapter 015
015:001
And it shall come to pass, if they say unto thee, Whither
shall we go forth? then thou shalt tell them, Thus saith the
LORD; Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the
sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the
famine; and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity
015:002
And I will appoint over them four kinds, saith the LORD: the
sword to slay, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the
heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy
015:003
And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the
earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah king of Judah,
for that which he did in Jerusalem
015:004
For who shall have pity upon thee, O Jerusalem? or who shall
bemoan thee? or who shall go aside to ask how thou doest
015:005
Thou hast forsaken me, saith the LORD, thou art gone backward:
therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, and destroy
thee; I am weary with repenting
015:006
And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; I
will bereave them of children, I will destroy my people since
they return not from their ways
015:007
Their widows are increased to me above the sand of the seas: I
have brought upon them against the mother of the young men a
spoiler at noonday: I have caused him to fall upon it
suddenly, and terrors upon the city
015:008
She that hath borne seven languisheth: she hath given up the
ghost; her sun is gone down while it was yet day: she hath
been ashamed and confounded: and the residue of them will I
deliver to the sword before their enemies, saith the LORD
015:009
Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife
and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have neither
lent on usury, nor men have lent to me on usury; yet every one
of them doth curse me
015:010
The LORD said, Verily it shall be well with thy remnant;
verily I will cause the enemy to entreat thee well in the time
of evil and in the time of affliction
015:011
Shall iron break the northern iron and the steel
015:012
Thy substance and thy treasures will I give to the spoil
without price, and that for all thy sins, even in all thy
borders
015:013
And I will make thee to pass with thine enemies into a land
which thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in mine anger,
which shall burn upon you
015:014
O LORD, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and revenge
me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy longsuffering:
know that for thy sake I have suffered rebuke
015:015
Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was
unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called
by thy name, O LORD God of hosts
015:016
I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat
alone because of thy hand: for thou hast filled me with
indignation
015:017
Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which
refuseth to be healed? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a
liar, and as waters that fail
015:018
Therefore thus saith the LORD, If thou return, then will I
bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou
take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my
mouth: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto
them
015:019
And I will make thee unto this people a fenced brasen wall:
and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail
against thee: for I am with thee to save thee and to deliver
thee, saith the LORD
015:020
And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I
will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible
