1: ThatH0834 cameH1961 the wordH1697 of YahwehH3068 toH0413 JeremiahH3414 concerningH5921 -H1697 the droughts.H1226

2: Mourns,H0056 JudahH3063 and her gatesH8179 languish-H0535 they mournH6937 for the land-H0776 and the cryH6682 of JerusalemH3389 has gone up.H5927

3: And their noblesH0117 have sentH7971 their boysH6810 for water-H4325 they wentH0935 toH5921 the cisterns,H1356 noH3808 [and] foundH4672 water-H4325 they returnedH7725 with their vesselsH3627 empty-H7387 they were ashamedH0954 and confounded,H3637 and coveredH2645 their heads.H7218

4: BecauseH5668 the groundH0127 is parched,H2865 forH3588 noH3808 there wasH1961 rainH1653 in the land,H0776 were ashamed,H0954 the plowmenH0406 they coveredH2645 their heads.H7218

5: YesH3588 also,H1571 the deerH0365 in the field,H7704 gave birthH3205 but leftH5800 becauseH3588 noH3808 there wasH1961 grass.H1877

6: And the wild donkeysH6501 stoodH5975 inH5921 the desolate heights,H8205 they sniffed atH7602 the windH7307 like jackals-H8577 failed,H3615 their eyesH5869 becauseH3588 [there was] noH0369 grass.H6212

7: ThoughH0518 our iniquitiesH5771 testifyH6030 Yahweh,H3068 do itH6213 forH4616 Your name's sakeH8034 forH3588 are many-H7231 our backslidingsH4878 we have sinned.H2398

8: The HopeH4723 of Israel,H3478 his SaviorH3467 in timeH6256 of trouble,H6869 whyH4100 should You beH1961 like a strangerH1616 in the land,H0776 and like a travelerH0732 [who] turns asideH5186 to tarry for a night.H3885

9: WhyH4100 should You beH1961 like a manH0376 astonished,H1724 Like a mighty oneH1368 [who] cannotH3808 -H3201 save?H3467 and yet You [are],H0859 in our midstH7130 Yahweh,H3068 and by Your name-H8034 weH5921 are calledH7121 notH0408 do leave us.H3240

10: ThusH3541 saysH0559 YahwehH3068 to people,H5971 thisH2088 thusH3651 they have lovedH0157 to wander,H5128 their feet,H7272 notH3808 they have restrainedH2820 therefore YahwehH3068 notH3808 does accept themH7521 nowH6258 He will rememberH2142 their iniquity,H5771 and punishH6485 their sins.H2403

11: And saidH0559 YahwehH3068 to meH0413 notH0408 do prayH6419 forH1157 peopleH5971 thisH2088 for [their] good.H2896

12: WhenH3588 they fast,H6684 I will notH0369 listenH8085 untoH0413 their cry-H7440 and whenH3588 they offerH5927 burnt offeringH5930 and grain offering,H4503 I will notH0369 accept themH7521 butH3588 by the sword,H2719 and by the famine,H7458 and by the pestilence.H1698 IH0595 will consumeH3615 them.H0853

13: And I saidH0559 Ah,H0162 LordH0136 GOD!H3069 behold,H2009 the prophetsH5030 sayH0559 notH3808 You shall seeH7200 the sword,H2719 and famine-H7458 norH3808 shall haveH1961 butH3588 peaceH7965 assuredH0571 I will giveH5414 in placeH4725 this.H2088

14: And saidH0559 YahwehH3068 to meH0413 liesH8267 the prophetsH5030 prophesyH5012 in My name.H8034 Not,H3808 I have sent themH7971 andH3808 commanded themH6680 norH3808 spokenH1696 to themH0413 a visionH2377 FALSEH8267 and divination,H7081 and an idolH0457 and the deceit ofH8649 their heart.H3820 TheyH1992 prophesyH5012

15: ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 saysH0559 YahwehH3068 concerningH5921 the prophetsH5030 who prophesyH5012 in My name,H8034 and IH0589 not,H3808 whom did sendH7971 and theyH1992 say,H0559 SwordH2719 and famineH7458 notH3808 shall beH1961 in land-H0776 thisH2063 by swordH2719 and famineH7458 shall be consumedH8552 prophetsH5030 those.H1992

16: And the peopleH5971 to whomH0834 theyH1992 prophesyH5012 to whom,H1992 shall beH1961 cast outH7993 in the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389 becauseH6440 of the famineH7458 and the sword-H2719 and no oneH0369 they will have to buryH6912 them,H1992 themH1992 nor their wives,H0802 and their sons,H1121 nor their daughters-H1323 for I will pourH8210 on themH5921 -H0853 their wickedness.H7451

17: Therefore you shall sayH0559 to themH0413 -H0853 wordH1697 thisH2088 let flowH3381 my eyesH5869 with tearsH1832 nightH3915 and day,H3119 and notH0408 let them cease-H1820 forH3588 with a strokeH7665 mightyH1419 Has been broken,H7667 the virginH1330 daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971 with a blowH4347 severeH2470 very.H3966

18: IfH0518 I go outH3318 to the field,H7704 and beholdH2009 those slain withH2491 the sword!H2719 and ifH0518 I enterH0935 the city,H5892 and beholdH2009 those sick fromH8463 famine!H7458 Yes,H3588 bothH1571 prophetH5030 andH1571 priestH3548 go aboutH5503 inH0413 a landH0776 and notH3808 they do know.H3045

19: Have utterlyH3988 You rejectedH3988 -H0853 Judah?H3063 OrH0518 Zion?H6726 Has loathedH1602 Your soulH5315 whyH4069 have You stricken usH5221 so that [there is] noH0369 healingH4832 we lookedH6960 for peace,H7965 but [there was] noH0369 good-H2896 and for the timeH6256 of healing,H4832 and there wasH2009 trouble!H1205

20: we acknowledge,H3045 Yahweh,H3068 our wickedness,H7562 [And] the iniquityH5771 of our fathers,H0001 forH3588 we have sinnedH2398

21: NotH0408 do abhor [us]H5006 for sakeH4616 of Your nameH8034 notH0408 do disgraceH5034 the throneH3678 of Your glory-H3519 Remember,H2142 notH0408 do breakH6565 Your covenantH1285 with us.H0854

22: Are there anyH3426 among the idolsH1892 of the nationsH1471 that can cause rain?H1652 OrH0518 the heavensH8064 can giveH5414 showers?H7241 [Are] notH3808 YouH0859 He,H1931 YahwehH3068 our God?H0430 therefore we will waitH6960 SinceH3588 YouH0859 made haveH6213 -H0853 allH3605 these.H0428
