Jeremiah 46

KJV

1  The word¹⁶⁹⁷ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ which⁸³⁴ came¹⁹⁶¹ to⁴¹³ Jeremiah³⁴¹⁴ the prophet⁵⁰³⁰ against⁵⁹²¹ the Gentiles;¹⁴⁷¹

2  Against Egypt,⁴⁷¹⁴ against⁵⁹²¹ the army²⁴²⁸ of Pharaoh Necho⁶⁵⁴⁹ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Egypt,⁴⁷¹⁴ which⁸³⁴ was¹⁹⁶¹ by⁵⁹²¹ the river⁵¹⁰⁴ Euphrates⁶⁵⁷⁸ in Carchemish,³⁷⁵¹ which⁸³⁴ Nebuchadnezzar⁵⁰¹⁹ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Babylon⁸⁹⁴ smote⁵²²¹ in the fourth⁷²⁴³ year⁸¹⁴¹ of Jehoiakim³⁰⁷⁹ the son¹¹²¹ of Josiah²⁹⁷⁷ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Judah.³⁰⁶³

3  Order⁶¹⁸⁶ ye the buckler⁴⁰⁴³ and shield,⁶⁷⁹³ and draw near⁵⁰⁶⁶ to battle.⁴⁴²¹

4  Harness⁶³¹ the horses;⁵⁴⁸³ and get up,⁵⁹²⁷ ye horsemen,⁶⁵⁷¹ and stand forth³³²⁰ with your helmets;³⁵⁵³ furbish⁴⁸³⁸ the spears,⁷⁴²⁰ and put on³⁸⁴⁷ the brigandines.⁵⁶³⁰

5  Wherefore⁴⁰⁶⁹ have I seen⁷²⁰⁰ them¹⁹⁹² dismayed²⁸⁴⁴ and turned away⁵⁴⁷² back?²⁶⁸ and their mighty ones¹³⁶⁸ are beaten down,³⁸⁰⁷ and are fled apace,^{4498 5127} and look not back:^{6437 3808} for fear⁴⁰³² was round about,^{4480 5439} saith⁵⁰⁰² the LORD.³⁰⁶⁸

6  Let not⁴⁰⁸ the swift⁷⁰³¹ flee away,⁵¹²⁷ nor⁴⁰⁸ the mighty man¹³⁶⁸ escape;⁴⁴²² they shall stumble,³⁷⁸² and fall⁵³⁰⁷ toward the north⁶⁸²⁸ by^{5921 3027} the river⁵¹⁰⁴ Euphrates.⁶⁵⁷⁸

7  Who⁴³¹⁰ is this²⁰⁸⁸ that cometh up⁵⁹²⁷ as a flood,²⁹⁷⁵ whose waters⁴³²⁵ are moved¹⁶⁰⁷ as the rivers?⁵¹⁰⁴

8  Egypt⁴⁷¹⁴ riseth up⁵⁹²⁷ like a flood,²⁹⁷⁵ and his waters⁴³²⁵ are moved¹⁶⁰⁷ like the rivers;⁵¹⁰⁴ and he saith,⁵⁵⁹ I will go up,⁵⁹²⁷ and will cover³⁶⁸⁰ the earth;⁷⁷⁶ I will destroy⁶ the city⁵⁸⁹² and the inhabitants³⁴²⁷ thereof.

9  Come up,⁵⁹²⁷ ye horses;⁵⁴⁸³ and rage,¹⁹⁸⁴ ye chariots;⁷³⁹³ and let the mighty men¹³⁶⁸ come forth;³³¹⁸ the Ethiopians³⁵⁶⁸ and the Libyans,⁶³¹⁶ that handle⁸⁶¹⁰ the shield;⁴⁰⁴³ and the Lydians,³⁸⁶⁶ that handle⁸⁶¹⁰ and bend¹⁸⁶⁹ the bow.⁷¹⁹⁸

10  For this¹⁹³¹ is the day³¹¹⁷ of the Lord¹³⁶ GOD³⁰⁶⁹ of hosts,⁶⁶³⁵ a day³¹¹⁷ of vengeance,⁵³⁶⁰ that he may avenge⁵³⁵⁸ him of his adversaries:^{4480 6862} and the sword²⁷¹⁹ shall devour,³⁹⁸ and it shall be satiate⁷⁶⁴⁶ and made drunk⁷³⁰¹ with their blood:^{4480 1818} for³⁵⁸⁸ the Lord¹³⁶ GOD³⁰⁶⁹ of hosts⁶⁶³⁵ hath a sacrifice²⁰⁷⁷ in the north⁶⁸²⁸ country⁷⁷⁶ by⁴¹³ the river⁵¹⁰⁴ Euphrates.⁶⁵⁷⁸

11  Go up⁵⁹²⁷ into Gilead,¹⁵⁶⁸ and take³⁹⁴⁷ balm,⁶⁸⁷⁵ O virgin,¹³³⁰ the daughter¹³²³ of Egypt:⁴⁷¹⁴ in vain⁷⁷²³ shalt thou use many⁷²³⁵ medicines;⁷⁴⁹⁹ for thou shalt not³⁶⁹ be cured.⁸⁵⁸⁵

12  The nations¹⁴⁷¹ have heard⁸⁰⁸⁵ of thy shame,⁷⁰³⁶ and thy cry⁶⁶⁸² hath filled⁴³⁹⁰ the land:⁷⁷⁶ for³⁵⁸⁸ the mighty man¹³⁶⁸ hath stumbled³⁷⁸² against the mighty,¹³⁶⁸ and they are fallen⁵³⁰⁷ both⁸¹⁴⁷ together.³¹⁶²

13  The word¹⁶⁹⁷ that⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ spoke¹⁶⁹⁶ to⁴¹³ Jeremiah³⁴¹⁴ the prophet,⁵⁰³⁰ how Nebuchadnezzar⁵⁰¹⁹ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Babylon⁸⁹⁴ should come⁹³⁵ and smite^{5221 853} the land⁷⁷⁶ of Egypt.⁴⁷¹⁴

14  Declare⁵⁰⁴⁶ ye in Egypt,⁴⁷¹⁴ and publish⁸⁰⁸⁵ in Migdol,⁴⁰²⁴ and publish⁸⁰⁸⁵ in Noph⁵²⁹⁷ and in Tahpanhes:⁸⁴⁷¹ say⁵⁵⁹ ye, Stand fast,³³²⁰ and prepare³⁵⁵⁹ thee; for³⁵⁸⁸ the sword²⁷¹⁹ shall devour³⁹⁸ round about⁵⁴³⁹ thee.

15  Why⁴⁰⁶⁹ are thy valiant⁴⁷ men swept away?⁵⁵⁰² they stood⁵⁹⁷⁵ not,³⁸⁰⁸ because³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ did drive¹⁹²⁰ them.

16  He made many⁷²³⁵ to fall,³⁷⁸² yea,¹⁵⁷¹ one³⁷⁶ fell⁵³⁰⁷ upon⁴¹³ another:⁷⁴⁵³ and they said,⁵⁵⁹ Arise,⁶⁹⁶⁵ and let us go again⁷⁷²⁵ to⁴¹³ our own people,⁵⁹⁷¹ and to⁴¹³ the land⁷⁷⁶ of our nativity,⁴¹³⁸ from^{4480 6440} the oppressing³²³⁸ sword.²⁷¹⁹

17  They did cry⁷¹²¹ there,⁸⁰³³ Pharaoh⁶⁵⁴⁷ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Egypt⁴⁷¹⁴ is but a noise;⁷⁵⁸⁸ he hath passed⁵⁶⁷⁴ the time appointed.⁴¹⁵⁰

18  As I⁵⁸⁹ live,²⁴¹⁶ saith⁵⁰⁰² the King,⁴⁴²⁸ whose name⁸⁰³⁴ is the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ of hosts,⁶⁶³⁵ Surely³⁵⁸⁸ as Tabor⁸³⁹⁶ is among the mountains,²⁰²² and as Carmel³⁷⁶⁰ by the sea,³²²⁰ so shall he come.⁹³⁵

19  O thou daughter¹³²³ dwelling³⁴²⁷ in Egypt,⁴⁷¹⁴ furnish^{3627 6213} thyself to go into captivity:¹⁴⁷³ for³⁵⁸⁸ Noph⁵²⁹⁷ shall be¹⁹⁶¹ waste⁸⁰⁴⁷ and desolate³³⁴¹ without^{4480 369} an inhabitant.³⁴²⁷

20  Egypt⁴⁷¹⁴ is like a very fair³³⁰⁴ heifer,⁵⁶⁹⁷ but destruction⁷¹⁷¹ cometh;⁹³⁵ it cometh⁹³⁵ out of the north.^{4480 6828}

21  Also¹⁵⁷¹ her hired men⁷⁹¹⁶ are in the midst⁷¹³⁰ of her like fatted⁴⁷⁷⁰ bullocks;⁵⁶⁹⁵ for³⁵⁸⁸ they¹⁹⁹² also¹⁵⁷¹ are turned back,⁶⁴³⁷ and are fled away⁵¹²⁷ together:³¹⁶² they did not³⁸⁰⁸ stand,⁵⁹⁷⁵ because³⁵⁸⁸ the day³¹¹⁷ of their calamity³⁴³ was come⁹³⁵ upon⁵⁹²¹ them, and the time⁶²⁵⁶ of their visitation.⁶⁴⁸⁶

22  The voice⁶⁹⁶³ thereof shall go¹⁹⁸⁰ like a serpent;⁵¹⁷⁵ for³⁵⁸⁸ they shall march¹⁹⁸⁰ with an army,²⁴²⁸ and come⁹³⁵ against her with axes,⁷¹³⁴ as hewers²⁴⁰⁴ of wood.⁶⁰⁸⁶

23  They shall cut down³⁷⁷² her forest,³²⁹³ saith⁵⁰⁰² the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ though³⁵⁸⁸ it cannot³⁸⁰⁸ be searched;²⁷¹³ because³⁵⁸⁸ they are more⁷²³¹ than the grasshoppers,^{4480 697} and are innumerable.^{369 4557}

24  The daughter¹³²³ of Egypt⁴⁷¹⁴ shall be confounded;³⁰⁰¹ she shall be delivered⁵⁴¹⁴ into the hand³⁰²⁷ of the people⁵⁹⁷¹ of the north.⁶⁸²⁸

25  The LORD³⁰⁶⁸ of hosts,⁶⁶³⁵ the God⁴³⁰ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ saith;⁵⁵⁹ Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ I will punish^{6485 413} the multitude⁵²⁸ of No,^{4480 4996} and Pharaoh,⁶⁵⁴⁷ and Egypt,⁴⁷¹⁴ with⁵⁹²¹ their gods,⁴³⁰ and their kings;⁴⁴²⁸ even Pharaoh,⁶⁵⁴⁷ and all them that trust⁹⁸² in him:

26  And I will deliver⁵⁴¹⁴ them into the hand³⁰²⁷ of those that seek¹²⁴⁵ their lives,⁵³¹⁵ and into the hand³⁰²⁷ of Nebuchadnezzar⁵⁰¹⁹ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Babylon,⁸⁹⁴ and into the hand³⁰²⁷ of his servants:⁵⁶⁵⁰ and afterward^{310 3651} it shall be inhabited,⁷⁹³¹ as in the days³¹¹⁷ of old,⁶⁹²⁴ saith⁵⁰⁰² the LORD.³⁰⁶⁸

27  But fear³³⁷² not⁴⁰⁸ thou,⁸⁵⁹ O my servant⁵⁶⁵⁰ Jacob,³²⁹⁰ and be not⁴⁰⁸ dismayed,²⁸⁶⁵ O Israel:³⁴⁷⁸ for,³⁵⁸⁸ behold,²⁰⁰⁹ I will save³⁴⁶⁷ thee from afar off,^{4480 7350} and thy seed²²³³ from the land^{4480 776} of their captivity;⁷⁶²⁸ and Jacob³²⁹⁰ shall return,⁷⁷²⁵ and be in rest⁸²⁵² and at ease,⁷⁵⁹⁹ and none³⁶⁹ shall make him afraid.²⁷²⁹

28  Fear³³⁷² thou⁸⁵⁹ not,⁴⁰⁸ O Jacob³²⁹⁰ my servant,⁵⁶⁵⁰ saith⁵⁰⁰² the LORD:³⁰⁶⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ I⁵⁸⁹ am with⁸⁵⁴ thee; for³⁵⁸⁸ I will make⁶²¹³ a full end³⁶¹⁷ of all³⁶⁰⁵ the nations¹⁴⁷¹ whither^{834 8033} I have driven⁵⁰⁸⁰ thee: but I will not³⁸⁰⁸ make⁶²¹³ a full end³⁶¹⁷ of thee, but correct³²⁵⁶ thee in measure;⁴⁹⁴¹ yet will I not³⁸⁰⁸ leave thee wholly⁵³⁵² unpunished.⁵³⁵²

2 καὶ ἐν τῷ ἑνδεκάτῳ ἔτει τοῦ Σεδεκια ἐν τῷ μηνὶ τῷ τετάρτῳ ἐνάτῃ τοῦ μηνὸς ἐρράγη ἡ πόλις

3 καὶ εἰσῆλθον πάντες οἱ ἡγεμόνες βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος καὶ ἐκάθισαν ἐν πύλῃ τῇ μέσῃ Ναργαλασαρ καὶ Σαμαγωθ καὶ Ναβουσαχαρ καὶ Ναβουσαρις καὶ Ναγαργασνασερ Ραβαμαγ καὶ οἱ κατάλοιποι ἡγεμόνες βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος

14 καὶ ἀπέστειλαν καὶ ἔλαβον τὸν Ιερεμιαν ἐξ αὐλῆς τῆς φυλακῆς καὶ ἔδωκαν αὐτὸν πρὸς τὸν Γοδολιαν υἱὸν Αχικαμ υἱοῦ Σαφαν καὶ ἐξήγαγον αὐτόν καὶ ἐκάθισεν ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ λαοῦ

15 καὶ πρὸς Ιερεμιαν ἐγένετο λόγος κυρίου ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ τῆς φυλακῆς λέγων

16 πορεύου καὶ εἰπὸν πρὸς Αβδεμελεχ τὸν Αἰθίοπα οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ φέρω τοὺς λόγους μου ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν ταύτην εἰς κακὰ καὶ οὐκ εἰς ἀγαθά

17 καὶ σώσω σε ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ καὶ οὐ μὴ δώσω σε εἰς χεῖρας τῶν ἀνθρώπων ὧν σὺ φοβῇ ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν

18 ὅτι σῴζων σώσω σε καὶ ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ οὐ μὴ πέσῃς καὶ ἔσται ἡ ψυχή σου εἰς εὕρεμα ὅτι ἐπεποίθεις ἐπ᾽ ἐμοί φησὶν κύριος

1 Quod factum est verbum Domini ad Jeremiam prophetam contra gentes.

2 Ad Ægyptum, adversum exercitum Pharaonis Nechao regis Ægypti, qui erat juxta fluvium Euphraten in Charcamis, quem percussit Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis, in quarto anno Joakim filii Josiæ regis Juda.

3 [Præparate scutum et clypeum,
et procedite ad bellum.

4 Jungite equos, et ascendite, equites:
state in galeis, polite lanceas, induite vos loricis.

5 Quid igitur? vidi ipsos pavidos,
et terga vertentes,
fortes eorum cæsos:
fugerunt conciti, nec respexerunt:
terror undique, ait Dominus.

6 Non fugiat velox,
nec salvari se putet fortis:
ad aquilonem juxta flumen Euphraten
victi sunt, et ruerunt.

7 Quis est iste, qui quasi flumen ascendit,
et veluti fluviorum intumescunt gurgites ejus?

8 Ægyptus fluminis instar ascendit,
et velut flumina movebuntur fluctus ejus,
et dicet: Ascendens operiam terram:
perdam civitatem, et habitatores ejus.

9 Ascendite equos,
et exsultate in curribus,
et procedant fortes,
Æthiopia et Libyes tenentes scutum,
et Lydii arripientes et jacientes sagittas.

10 Dies autem ille Domini Dei exercituum dies ultionis,
ut sumat vindictam de inimicis suis:
devorabit gladius, et saturabitur,
et inebriabitur sanguine eorum:
victima enim Domini Dei exercituum
in terra aquilonis juxta flumen Euphraten.

11 Ascende in Galaad, et tolle resinam,
virgo filia Ægypti:
frustra multiplicas medicamina:
sanitas non erit tibi.

12 Audierunt gentes ignominiam tuam,
et ululatus tuus replevit terram:
quia fortis impegit in fortem,
et ambo pariter conciderunt.]

13 Verbum quod locutus est Dominus ad Jeremiam prophetam, super eo quod venturus esset Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis, et percussurus terram Ægypti:

14 [Annuntiate Ægypto, et auditum facite in Magdalo,
et resonet in Memphis, et in Taphnis:
dicite: Sta, et præpara te,
quia devorabit gladius ea quæ per circuitum tuum sunt.

15 Quare computruit fortis tuus?
non stetit, quoniam Dominus subvertit eum.

16 Multiplicavit ruentes,
ceciditque vir ad proximum suum, et dicent:
Surge, et revertamur ad populum nostrum,
et ad terram nativitatis nostræ,
a facie gladii columbæ.

17 Vocate nomen Pharaonis regis Ægypti:
tumultum adduxit tempus.

18 Vivo ego, inquit Rex (Dominus exercituum nomen ejus),
quoniam sicut Thabor in montibus,
et sicut Carmelus in mari, veniet.

19 Vasa transmigrationis fac tibi,
habitatrix filia Ægypti:
quia Memphis in solitudinem erit,
et deseretur, et inhabitabilis erit.

20 Vitula elegans atque formosa Ægyptus,
stimulator ab aquilone veniet ei.

21 Mercenarii quoque ejus,
qui versabantur in medio ejus quasi vituli saginati,
versi sunt, et fugerunt simul,
nec stare potuerunt:
quia dies interfectionis eorum venit super eos,
tempus visitationis eorum.

22 Vox ejus quasi æris sonabit:
quoniam cum exercitu properabunt,
et cum securibus venient ei
quasi cædentes ligna.

23 Succiderunt saltum ejus, ait Dominus,
qui supputari non potest:
multiplicati sunt super locustas,
et non est eis numerus.

24 Confusa est filia Ægypti,
et tradita in manu populo aquilonis.

25 Dixit Dominus exercituum, Deus Israël:
Ecce ego visitabo super tumultum Alexandriæ,
et super Pharaonem, et super Ægyptum,
et super deos ejus, et super reges ejus,
et super Pharaonem, et super eos qui confidunt in eo:

26 et dabo eos in manu quærentium animam eorum,
et in manu Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis,
et in manu servorum ejus:
et post hæc habitabitur sicut diebus pristinis, ait Dominus.

27 Et tu ne timeas, serve meus Jacob,
et ne paveas, Israël:
quia ecce ego salvum te faciam de longinquo,
et semen tuum de terra captivitatis tuæ:
et revertetur Jacob, et requiescet,
et prosperabitur, et non erit qui exterreat eum.

28 Et tu noli timere, serve meus Jacob, ait Dominus,
quia tecum ego sum:
quia ego consumam cunctas gentes ad quas ejeci te,
te vero non consumam:
sed castigabo te in judicio,
nec quasi innocenti parcam tibi.]
