Jeremiah 16 (kjv)

16

The wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came also unto me, sayingH559,2Thou shalt not takeH3947 thee a wifeH802, neither shalt thou have sonsH1121 or daughtersH1323 in this placeH4725.3For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 concerning the sonsH1121 and concerning the daughtersH1323 that are bornH3205 in this placeH4725, and concerning their mothersH517 that bareH3205 them, and concerning their fathersH1 that begatH3209 them in this landH776;4They shall dieH4191 of grievousH8463 deathsH4463; they shall not be lamentedH5594; neither shall they be buriedH6912; but they shall be as dungH1828 upon the faceH6440 of the earthH127: and they shall be consumedH3615 by the swordH2719, and by famineH7458; and their carcasesH5038 shall be meatH3978 for the fowlsH5775 of heavenH8064, and for the beastsH929 of the earthH776.5For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, EnterH935 not into the houseH1004 of mourningH4798, neither goH3212 to lamentH5594 nor bemoanH5110 them: for I have taken awayH622 my peaceH7965 from this peopleH5971, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, even lovingkindnessH2617 and merciesH7356.6Both the greatH1419 and the smallH6996 shall dieH4191 in this landH776: they shall not be buriedH6912, neither shall men lamentH5594 for them, nor cutH1413 themselves, nor make themselves baldH7139 for them:7Neither shall men tearH6536 themselves for them in mourningH60, to comfortH5162 them for the deadH4191; neither shall men give them the cupH3563 of consolationH8575 to drinkH8248 for their fatherH1 or for their motherH517.

8Thou shalt not also goH935 into the houseH1004 of feastingH4960, to sitH3427 with them to eatH398 and to drinkH8354.9For thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will cause to ceaseH7673 out of this placeH4725 in your eyesH5869, and in your daysH3117, the voiceH6963 of mirthH8342, and the voiceH6963 of gladnessH8057, the voiceH6963 of the bridegroomH2860, and the voiceH6963 of the brideH3618.

10And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt shewH5046 this peopleH5971 all these wordsH1697, and they shall sayH559 unto thee, Wherefore hath the LORDH3068 pronouncedH1696 all this greatH1419 evilH7451 against us? or what is our iniquityH5771? or what is our sinH2403 that we have committedH2398 against the LORDH3068 our GodH430?11Then shalt thou sayH559 unto them, Because your fathersH1 have forsakenH5800 me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and have walkedH3212 afterH310 otherH312 godsH430, and have servedH5647 them, and have worshippedH7812 them, and have forsakenH5800 me, and have not keptH8104 my lawH8451;12And ye have doneH6213 worseH7489 than your fathersH1; for, beholdH2009, ye walkH1980 every oneH376 afterH310 the imaginationH8307 of his evilH7451 heartH3820, that they may not hearkenH8085 unto me:13Therefore will I castH2904 you out of this landH776 into a landH776 that ye knowH3045 not, neither ye nor your fathersH1; and there shall ye serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430 dayH3119 and nightH3915; where I will not shewH5414 you favourH2594.

14Therefore, behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that it shall no more be saidH559, The LORDH3068 livethH2416, that brought upH5927 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714;15But, The LORDH3068 livethH2416, that brought upH5927 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 from the landH776 of the northH6828, and from all the landsH776 whither he had drivenH5080 them: and I will bring them againH7725 into their landH127 that I gaveH5414 unto their fathersH1.

16Behold, I will sendH7971 for manyH7227 fishersH1771 H1728, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, and they shall fishH1770 them; and afterH310 will I sendH7971 for manyH7227 huntersH6719, and they shall huntH6679 them from every mountainH2022, and from every hillH1389, and out of the holesH5357 of the rocksH5553.17For mine eyesH5869 are upon all their waysH1870: they are not hidH5641 from my faceH6440, neither is their iniquityH5771 hidH6845 fromH5048 mine eyesH5869.18And firstH7223 I will recompenseH7999 their iniquityH5771 and their sinH2403 doubleH4932; because they have defiledH2490 my landH776, they have filledH4390 mine inheritanceH5159 with the carcasesH5038 of their detestableH8251 and abominable thingsH8441.19O LORDH3068, my strengthH5797, and my fortressH4581, and my refugeH4498 in the dayH3117 of afflictionH6869, the GentilesH1471 shall comeH935 unto thee from the endsH657 of the earthH776, and shall sayH559, Surely our fathersH1 have inheritedH5157 liesH8267, vanityH1892, and things wherein there is no profitH3276.20Shall a manH120 makeH6213 godsH430 unto himself, and they are no godsH430?21Therefore, behold, I will this onceH6471 cause them to knowH3045, I will cause them to knowH3045 mine handH3027 and my mightH1369; and they shall knowH3045 that my nameH8034 is The LORDH3068.
