and shall tell them, Thus says Yahweh of Hosts: Even so will I break this people and this city, as one breaks a potter's vessel, that can't be made whole again; and they shall bury in Topheth, until there be no place to bury.

וְאָמַרְתָּ֨ (וְ) ve. “and”

and the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, which are defiled, shall be as the place of Topheth, even all the houses on whose roofs they have burned incense to all the host of the sky, and have poured out drink-offerings to other gods.

וְהָי֞וּ (וְ) ve. “and”

Then came Jeremiah from Topheth, where Yahweh had sent him to prophesy; and he stood in the court of Yahweh's house, and said to all the people:

וַיָּבֹ֤א (וַ) va “and”וַֽיַּעֲמֹד֙ (וַֽ) va “and”וַיֹּ֖אמֶר (וַ) va “and”

Now Pashhur, the son of Immer the priest, who was chief officer in the house of Yahweh, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things.

Then Pashhur struck Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the upper gate of Benjamin, which was in the house of Yahweh.

וַיַּכֶּ֣ה (וַ) va “and”וַיִּתֵּ֨ן (וַ) va “and”

It happened on the next day, that Pashhur brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then said Jeremiah to him, Yahweh has not called your name Pashhur, but Magormissabib.

Why came I forth out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?

Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, Behold, I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands, with which you fight against the king of Babylon, and against the Chaldeans who besiege you, without the walls; and I will gather them into the midst of this city.

וְאָסַפְתִּ֣י (וְ) ve. “and”

וְהִכָּ֣ם (וְ) ve. “and”
