H3414L–יִרְמְיָ֫הוּ–yir.me.yah

Shephatiah the son of Mattan, and Gedaliah the son of Pashhur, and Jucal the son of Shelemiah, and Pashhur the son of Malchijah, heard the words that Jeremiah spoke to all the people, saying,

יִרְמְיָ֛הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

Then took they Jeremiah, and cast him into the dungeon of Malchijah the king's son, that was in the court of the guard: and they let down Jeremiah with cords. In the dungeon there was no water, but mire; and Jeremiah sank in the mire.

יִרְמְיָ֗הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

Now when Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, a eunuch, who was in the king's house, heard that they had put Jeremiah in the dungeon (the king then sitting in the gate of Benjamin),

יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

My lord the king, these men have done evil in all that they have done to Jeremiah the prophet, whom they have cast into the dungeon; and he is likely to die in the place where he is, because of the famine; for there is no more bread in the city.

לְיִרְמְיָ֣הוּ (יִרְמְיָ֣הוּ) yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

Then the king commanded Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying, Take from hence thirty men with you, and take up Jeremiah the prophet out of the dungeon, before he die.

יִרְמְיָ֧הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

So Ebedmelech took the men with him, and went into the house of the king under the treasury, and took there rags and worn-out garments, and let them down by cords into the dungeon to Jeremiah.

יִרְמְיָ֛הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

Ebedmelech the Ethiopian said to Jeremiah, Put now these rags and worn-out garments under your armholes under the cords. Jeremiah did so.

יִרְמְיָ֗הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

So they drew up Jeremiah with the cords, and took him up out of the dungeon: and Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard.

יִרְמְיָ֙הוּ֙ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”יִרְמְיָ֔הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took Jeremiah the prophet to him into the third entry that is in the house of Yahweh: and the king said to Jeremiah, I will ask you a thing; hide nothing from me.

יִרְמְיָ֤הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”יִרְמְיָ֗הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

Then Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, If I declare it to you, will you not surely put me to death? and if I give you counsel, you will not listen to me.

יִרְמְיָ֙הוּ֙ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

So Zedekiah the king swore secretly to Jeremiah, saying, As Yahweh lives, who made us this soul, I will not put you to death, neither will I give you into the hand of these men who seek your life.

יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

Then said Jeremiah to Zedekiah, Thus says Yahweh, the God of hosts, the God of Israel: If you will go forth to the king of Babylon's princes, then your soul shall live, and this city shall not be burned with fire; and you shall live, and your house.

יִרְמְיָ֣הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

Zedekiah the king said to Jeremiah, I am afraid of the Jews who are fallen away to the Chaldeans, lest they deliver me into their hand, and they mock me.

יִרְמְיָ֑הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

But Jeremiah said, They shall not deliver you. Obey, I beg you, the voice of Yahweh, in that which I speak to you: so it shall be well with you, and your soul shall live.

יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

Then said Zedekiah to Jeremiah, Let no man know of these words, and you shall not die.

יִרְמְיָ֗הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

Then came all the princes to Jeremiah, and asked him; and he told them according to all these words that the king had commanded. So they left off speaking with him; for the matter was not perceived.

יִרְמְיָ֙הוּ֙ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

So Jeremiah abode in the court of the guard until the day that Jerusalem was taken.

יִרְמְיָ֙הוּ֙ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

Now Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon gave charge concerning Jeremiah to Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, saying,

יִרְמְיָ֑הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

they sent, and took Jeremiah out of the court of the guard, and committed him to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, that he should carry him home: so he lived among the people.

יִרְמְיָ֜הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

Now the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah, while he was shut up in the court of the guard, saying,

יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

The word which came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, after that Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had let him go from Ramah, when he had taken him being bound in chains among all the captives of Jerusalem and Judah, who were carried away captive to Babylon.

יִרְמְיָ֙הוּ֙ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

The captain of the guard took Jeremiah, and said to him, Yahweh your God pronounced this evil on this place;

לְיִרְמְיָ֑הוּ (יִרְמְיָ֑הוּ) yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

Then went Jeremiah to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah, and lived with him among the people who were left in the land.

יִרְמְיָ֛הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

and said to Jeremiah the prophet, Let, we pray you, our supplication be presented before you, and pray for us to Yahweh your God, even for all this remnant; for we are left but a few of many, as your eyes do see us:

יִרְמְיָ֣הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”

Then Jeremiah the prophet said to them, I have heard you; behold, I will pray to Yahweh your God according to your words; and it shall happen that whatever thing Yahweh shall answer you, I will declare it to you; I will keep nothing back from you.

יִרְמְיָ֤הוּ yir.me.Ya.hu “Jeremiah”
