Jeremiah -- 26
{1}
In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah came
this word from the LORD, saying, {2} Thus saith the LORD; Stand in
the court of the LORD's house, and speak unto all the cities of Judah, which come
to worship in the LORD's house, all the words that I command thee to speak unto
them; diminish not a word: {3} If so be they will hearken, and turn
every man from his evil way, that I may repent me of the evil, which I purpose
to do unto them because of the evil of their doings. {4} And thou shalt
say unto them, Thus saith the LORD; If ye will not hearken to me, to walk in my
law, which I have set before you, {5} To hearken to the words of my
servants the prophets, whom I sent unto you, both rising up early, and sending
them, but ye have not hearkened; {6} Then will I make this house like
Shiloh, and will make this city a curse to all the nations of the earth. {7}
So the priests and the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these
words in the house of the LORD. {8} Now it came to pass, when Jeremiah
had made an end of speaking all that the LORD had commanded him to speak unto
all the people, that the priests and the prophets and all the people took him,
saying, Thou shalt surely die. {9} Why hast thou prophesied in the
name of the LORD, saying, This house shall be like Shiloh, and this city shall
be desolate without an inhabitant? And all the people were gathered against Jeremiah
in the house of the LORD. {10} When the princes of Judah heard these
things, then they came up from the king's house unto the house of the LORD, and
sat down in the entry of the new gate of the LORD's house. {11} Then
spake the priests and the prophets unto the princes and to all the people, saying,
This man is worthy to die; for he hath prophesied against this city, as ye have
heard with your ears. {12} Then spake Jeremiah unto all the princes
and to all the people, saying, The LORD sent me to prophesy against this house
and against this city all the words that ye have heard. {13} Therefore
now amend your ways and your doings, and obey the voice of the LORD your God;
and the LORD will repent him of the evil that he hath pronounced against you.
{14} As for me, behold, I am in your hand: do with me as seemeth good and
meet unto you. {15} But know ye for certain, that if ye put me to death,
ye shall surely bring innocent blood upon yourselves, and upon this city, and
upon the inhabitants thereof: for of a truth the LORD hath sent me unto you to
speak all these words in your ears. {16} Then said the princes and
all the people unto the priests and to the prophets; This man is not worthy to
die: for he hath spoken to us in the name of the LORD our God. {17}
Then rose up certain of the elders of the land, and spake to all the assembly
of the people, saying, {18} Micah the Morasthite prophesied in the
days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and spake to all the people of Judah, saying,
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Zion shall be plowed like a field, and Jerusalem
shall become heaps, and the mountains of the house as the high places of a forest.
{19} Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him at all to death?
did he not fear the LORD, and besought the LORD, and the LORD repented him of
the evil which he had pronounced against them? Thus might we procure great evil
against our souls. {20} And there was also a man that prophesied in
the name of the LORD, Urijah the son of Shemaiah of Kirjath-jearim, who prophesied
against this city and against this land according to all the words of Jeremiah:
{21} And when Jehoiakim the king, with all his mighty men, and all the
princes, heard his words, the king sought to put him to death: but when Urijah
heard it, he was afraid, and fled, and went into Egypt; {22} And Jehoiakim
the king sent men into Egypt, namely, Elnathan the son of Achbor, and certain
men with him into Egypt. {23} And they fetched forth Urijah out of
Egypt, and brought him unto Jehoiakim the king; who slew him with the sword, and
cast his dead body into the graves of the common people. {24} Nevertheless
the hand of Ahikam the son of Shaphan was with Jeremiah, that they should not
give him into the hand of the people to put him to death. Jeremiah
-- 27{1} In the
beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah came this
word unto Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, {2} Thus saith the LORD to
me; Make thee bonds and yokes, and put them upon thy neck, {3} And
send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the
Ammonites, and to the king of Tyrus, and to the king of Zidon, by the hand of
the messengers which come to Jerusalem unto Zedekiah king of Judah; {4}
And command them to say unto their masters, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the
God of Israel; Thus shall ye say unto your masters; {5} I have made
the earth, the man and the beast that are upon the ground, by my great power and
by my outstretched arm, and have given it unto whom it seemed meet unto me.
{6} And now have I given all these lands unto the hand of Nebuchadnezzar
the king of Babylon, my servant; and the beasts of the field have I given him
also to serve him. {7} And all nations shall serve him, and his son,
and his son's son, until the very time of his land come: and then many nations
and great kings shall serve themselves of him. {8} And it shall come
to pass, that the nation and kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar
the king of Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king
of Babylon, that nation will I punish, saith the LORD, with the sword, and with
the famine, and with the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand.
{9} Therefore hearken not ye to your prophets, nor to your diviners, nor
to your dreamers, nor to your enchanters, nor to your sorcerers, which speak unto
you, saying, Ye shall not serve the king of Babylon: {10} For they
prophesy a lie unto you, to remove you far from your land; and that I should drive
you out, and ye should perish. {11} But the nations that bring their
neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him, those will I let remain
still in their own land, saith the LORD; and they shall till it, and dwell therein.
{12} I spake also to Zedekiah king of Judah according to all these words,
saying, Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him
and his people, and live. {13} Why will ye die, thou and thy people,
by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, as the LORD hath spoken against
the nation that will not serve the king of Babylon? {14} Therefore
hearken not unto the words of the prophets that speak unto you, saying, Ye shall
not serve the king of Babylon: for they prophesy a lie unto you. {15}
For I have not sent them, saith the LORD, yet they prophesy a lie in my name;
that I might drive you out, and that ye might perish, ye, and the prophets that
prophesy unto you. {16} Also I spake to the priests and to all this
people, saying, Thus saith the LORD; Hearken not to the words of your prophets
that prophesy unto you, saying, Behold, the vessels of the LORD's house shall
now shortly be brought again from Babylon: for they prophesy a lie unto you.
{17} Hearken not unto them; serve the king of Babylon, and live: wherefore
should this city be laid waste? {18} But if they be prophets, and if
the word of the LORD be with them, let them now make intercession to the LORD
of hosts, that the vessels which are left in the house of the LORD, and in the
house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem, go not to Babylon. {19}
For thus saith the LORD of hosts concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea,
and concerning the bases, and concerning the residue of the vessels that remain
in this city, {20} Which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took not, when
he carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah from Jerusalem
to Babylon, and all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem; {21} Yea, thus
saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning the vessels that remain
in the house of the LORD, and in the house of the king of Judah and of Jerusalem;
{22} They shall be carried to Babylon, and there shall they be until the
day that I visit them, saith the LORD; then will I bring them up, and restore
them to this place. Jeremiah
-- 28{1} And it
came to pass the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of
Judah, in the fourth year, and in the fifth month, that Hananiah the son of Azur
the prophet, which was of Gibeon, spake unto me in the house of the LORD, in the
presence of the priests and of all the people, saying, {2} Thus speaketh
the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, I have broken the yoke of the king
of Babylon. {3} Within two full years will I bring again into this
place all the vessels of the LORD's house, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon
took away from this place, and carried them to Babylon: {4} And I will
bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, with all
the captives of Judah, that went into Babylon, saith the LORD: for I will break
the yoke of the king of Babylon. {5} Then the prophet Jeremiah said
unto the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests, and in the presence
of all the people that stood in the house of the LORD, {6} Even the
prophet Jeremiah said, Amen: the LORD do so: the LORD perform thy words which
thou hast prophesied, to bring again the vessels of the LORD's house, and all
that is carried away captive, from Babylon into this place. {7} Nevertheless
hear thou now this word that I speak in thine ears, and in the ears of all the
people; {8} The prophets that have been before me and before thee of
old prophesied both against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war,
and of evil, and of pestilence. {9} The prophet which prophesieth of
peace, when the word of the prophet shall come to pass, then shall the prophet
be known, that the LORD hath truly sent him. {10} Then Hananiah the
prophet took the yoke from off the prophet Jeremiah's neck, and brake it.
{11} And Hananiah spake in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus
saith the LORD; Even so will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon
from the neck of all nations within the space of two full years. And the prophet
Jeremiah went his way. {12} Then the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah
the prophet, after that Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke from off the
neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying, {13} Go and tell Hananiah, saying,
Thus saith the LORD; Thou hast broken the yokes of wood; but thou shalt make for
them yokes of iron. {14} For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God
of Israel; I have put a yoke of iron upon the neck of all these nations, that
they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they shall serve him: and I
have given him the beasts of the field also. {15} Then said the prophet
Jeremiah unto Hananiah the prophet, Hear now, Hananiah; The LORD hath not sent
thee; but thou makest this people to trust in a lie. {16} Therefore
thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will cast thee from off the face of the earth:
this year thou shalt die, because thou hast taught rebellion against the LORD.
{17} So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh month.
Second Timothy
-- 2{1} Thou therefore,
my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. {2} And the
things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to
faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also. {3} Thou therefore
endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. {4} No man that
warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him
who hath chosen him to be a soldier. {5} And if a man also strive for
masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully. {6} The
husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits. {7}
Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things. {8}
Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according
to my gospel: {9} Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto
bonds; but the word of God is not bound. {10} Therefore I endure all
things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is
in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. {11} It is a faithful saying: For
if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him: {12} If we suffer,
we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us: {13}
If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself. {14}
Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they
strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.
{15} Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not
to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. {16} But shun profane
and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. {17}
And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
{18} Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection
is past already; and overthrow the faith of some. {19} Nevertheless
the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that
are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
{20} But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver,
but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.
{21} If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel
unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every
good work. {22} Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness,
faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
{23} But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender
strifes. {24} And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle
unto all men, apt to teach, patient, {25} In meekness instructing those
that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging
of the truth; {26} And that they may recover themselves out of the
snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
