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
6
And
now
have
I
given
all
these
lands
into
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.
