H0853–אֵת–et

The Lord, the God of Israel, has said, Go and say to Zedekiah, king of Judah, This is what the Lord has said: See, I will give this town into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he will have it burned with fire:

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And you will not get away from him, but will certainly be taken and given up into his hands; and you will see the king of Babylon, eye to eye, and he will have talk with you, mouth to mouth, and you will go to Babylon.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then Jeremiah the prophet said all these things to Zedekiah, king of Judah, in Jerusalem,

אֵ֛ת 'et “<obj.>”

That every man was to let his Hebrew man-servant and his Hebrew servant-girl go free; so that no one might make use of a Jew, his countryman, as a servant:

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And this was done by all the rulers and the people who had taken part in the agreement, and every one let his man-servant and his servant-girl go free, not to be used as servants any longer; they did so, and let them go.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

But later, they took back again the servants and the servant-girls whom they had let go free, and put them again under the yoke as servants and servant-girls.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

The Lord, the God of Israel, has said, I made an agreement with your fathers on the day when I took them out of Egypt, out of the prison-house, saying,

אוֹתָם֙ (אוֹתָ) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

At the end of seven years every man is to let go his countryman who is a Hebrew, who has become yours for a price and has been your servant for six years; you are to let him go free: but your fathers gave no attention and did not give ear.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And now, turning away from evil, you had done what is right in my eyes, giving a public undertaking for every man to make his neighbour free; and you had made an agreement before me in the house which is named by my name:

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

But again you have put shame on my name, and you have taken back, every one his man-servant and his servant-girl, whom you had sent away free, and you have put them under the yoke again to be your servants and servant-girls.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֹתָ֔ם (אֹתָ֔) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

And so the Lord has said, You have not given ear to me and undertaken publicly, every man to let loose his countryman and his neighbour: see, I undertake to let loose against you the sword and disease and need of food; and I will send you wandering among

אֶתְכֶם֙ (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”

And I will give the men who have gone against my agreement and have not given effect to the words of the agreement which they made before me, when the ox was cut in two and they went between the parts of it,

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Even these I will give up into the hands of their haters and into the hands of those who have designs against their lives: and their dead bodies will become food for the birds of heaven and the beasts of the earth.

אוֹתָם֙ (אוֹתָ) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

And Zedekiah, king of Judah, and his rulers I will give into the hands of their haters and into the hands of those who have designs against their lives, and into the hands of the king of Babylon's army which has gone away from you.

וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

See, I will give orders, says the Lord, and make them come back to this town; and they will make war on it and take it and have it burned with fire: and I will make the towns of Judah waste and unpeopled.

וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

Go into the house of the Rechabites, and have talk with them, and take them into the house of the Lord, into one of the rooms, and give them wine.

אוֹתָ֔ם (אוֹתָ֔) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”אוֹתָ֖ם (אוֹתָ֖) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

Then I took Jaazaniah, the son of Jeremiah, the son of Habazziniah, and his brothers and all his sons and all the Rechabites;

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”וְאֵ֖ת (אֵ֖ת) 'Et “<obj.>”

And I took them into the house of the Lord, into the room of the sons of Hanan, the son of Igdaliah, the man of God, which was near the rulers' room, which was over the room of Maaseiah, the son of Shallum, the keeper of the door;

אֹתָם֙ (אֹתָ) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

The orders which Jonadab, the son of Rechab, gave to his sons to take no wine, are done, and to this day they take no wine, for they do the orders of their father: but I have sent my words to you, getting up early and sending them, and you have not given

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֵ֖ת 'et “<obj.>”

And I have sent you all my servants the prophets, getting up early and sending them, saying, Come back, now, every man from his evil way, and do better, and go not after other gods to become their servants, and you will go on living in the land which I h

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶֽת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Though the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have done the orders of their father which he gave them, this people has not given ear to me:

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

For this reason the Lord, the God of armies, the God of Israel, has said, See, I will send on Judah and on all the people of Jerusalem all the evil which I said I would do to them: because I sent my words to them, but they did not give ear; crying out to

אֵ֚ת 'et “<obj.>”

But to the Rechabites Jeremiah said, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Because you have done the orders of Jonadab your father, and have kept his rules, and done everything as he gave you orders to do it;

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶתְכֶֽם׃ (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”

Take a book and put down in it all the words I have said to you against Israel and against Judah and against all the nations, from the day when my word came to you in the days of Josiah till this day.

אֵ֣ת 'et “<obj.>”

It may be that the people of Judah, hearing of all the evil which it is my purpose to do to them, will be turned, every man from his evil ways; so that they may have my forgiveness for their evil-doing and their sin.
