Jeremiah
18-21
Jer
18:1 The word which came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,
Jer
18:2 Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will
cause you to hear my words.
Jer
18:3 Then I went down to the potter's house, and behold, he was
making a work on the wheels.
Jer
18:4 When the vessel that he made of the clay was marred in the hand
of the potter, he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the
potter to make it.
Jer
18:5 Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
Jer
18:6 House of Israel, can't I do with you as this potter? says
Yahweh. Behold, as the clay in the potter's hand, so are you in my
hand, house of Israel.
Jer
18:7 At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and
concerning a kingdom, to pluck up and to break down and to destroy
it;
Jer
18:8 if that nation, concerning which I have spoken, turn from their
evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do to them.
Jer
18:9 At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and
concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;
Jer
18:10 if they do that which is evil in my sight, that they not obey
my voice, then I will repent of the good, with which I said I would
benefit them.
Jer
18:11 Now therefore, speak to the men of Judah, and to the
inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying, Thus says Yahweh: Behold, I frame
evil against you, and devise a device against you: return you now
everyone from his evil way, and amend your ways and your doings.
Jer
18:12 But they say, It is in vain; for we will walk after our own
devices, and we will do everyone after the stubbornness of his evil
heart.
Jer
18:13 Therefore thus says Yahweh: Ask you now among the nations, who
has heard such things; the virgin of Israel has done a very horrible
thing.
Jer
18:14 Shall the snow of Lebanon fail from the rock of the field? or
shall the cold waters that flow down from afar be dried up?
Jer
18:15 For my people have forgotten me, they have burned incense to
false gods;
and they have been made to stumble in their ways, in the ancient
paths, to walk in byways, in a way not built up;
Jer
18:16 to make their land an astonishment, and a perpetual hissing;
everyone who passes thereby shall be astonished, and shake his head.
Jer
18:17 I will scatter them as with an east wind before the enemy; I
will show them the back, and not the face, in the day of their
calamity.
Jer
18:18 Then said they, Come, and let us devise devices against
Jeremiah; for the law shall not perish from the priest, nor counsel
from the wise, nor the word from the prophet. Come, and let us strike
him with the tongue, and let us not give heed to any of his words.
Jer
18:19 Give heed to me, Yahweh, and listen to the voice of those who
contend with me.
Jer
18:20 Shall evil be recompensed for good? for they have dug a pit
for my soul. Remember how I stood before you to speak good for them,
to turn away your wrath from them.
Jer
18:21 Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, and give
them over to the power of the sword; and let their wives become
childless, and widows; and let their men be slain of death, and
their young men struck of the sword in battle.
Jer
18:22 Let a cry be heard from their houses, when you shall bring a
troop suddenly on them; for they have dug a pit to take me, and hid
snares for my feet.
Jer
18:23 Yet, Yahweh, you know all their counsel against me to kill me;
don't forgive their iniquity, neither blot out their sin from your
sight; but let them be overthrown before you; deal you with them in
the time of your anger.
Jer
19:1 Thus said Yahweh, Go, and buy a potter's earthen bottle, and
take of the
elders of the people, and of the elders of the priests;
Jer
19:2 and go forth to the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is by
the entry of the gate Harsith, and proclaim there the words that I
shall tell you;
Jer
19:3 and say, Hear you the word of Yahweh, kings of Judah, and
inhabitants of Jerusalem: thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of
Israel, Behold, I will bring evil on this place, which whoever hears,
his ears shall tingle.
Jer
19:4 Because they have forsaken me, and have estranged this place,
and have burned incense in it to other gods, that they didn't know,
they and their fathers and the kings of Judah; and have filled this
place with the blood of innocents,
Jer
19:5 and have built the high places of Baal, to burn their sons in
the fire for burnt offerings to Baal; which I didn't command, nor
spoke it, neither came it into my mind:
Jer
19:6 therefore, behold, the days come, says Yahweh, that this place
shall no more be called Topheth, nor The valley of the son of Hinnom,
but The valley of Slaughter.
Jer
19:7 I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this
place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their
enemies, and by the hand of those who seek their life: and their dead
bodies will I give to be food for the birds of the sky, and for the
animals of the earth.
Jer
19:8 I will make this city an astonishment, and a hissing; everyone
who passes thereby shall be astonished and hiss because of all its
plagues.
Jer
19:9 I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh
of their daughters; and they shall eat everyone the flesh of his
friend, in the siege and in the distress, with which their enemies,
and those who seek their life, shall distress them.
Jer
19:10 Then you shall break the bottle in the sight of the men who go
with you,
Jer
19:11 and shall tell them, Thus says Yahweh of Armies: Even so will
I break this people and this city, as one breaks a potter's vessel,
that can't be made whole again; and they shall bury in Topheth, until
there be no place to bury.
Jer
19:12 Thus will I do to this place, says Yahweh, and to its
inhabitants, even making this city as Topheth:
Jer
19:13 and the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of
Judah, which are defiled, shall be as the place of Topheth, even all
the houses on whose roofs they have burned incense to all the army of
the sky, and have poured out drink offerings to other gods.
Jer
19:14 Then came Jeremiah from Topheth, where Yahweh had sent him to
prophesy; and he stood in the court of Yahweh's house, and said to
all the people:
Jer
19:15 Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, Behold, I will
bring on this city and on all its towns all the evil that I have
pronounced against it; because they have made their neck stiff, that
they may not hear my words.
Jer
20:1 Now Pashhur, the son of Immer the priest, who was chief officer
in the house of Yahweh, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things.
Jer
20:2 Then Pashhur struck Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the
stocks that were in the upper gate of Benjamin, which was in the
house of Yahweh.
Jer
20:3 It happened on the next day, that Pashhur brought forth
Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then said Jeremiah to him, Yahweh has not
called your name Pashhur, but Magormissabib.
Jer
20:4 For thus says Yahweh, Behold, I will make you a terror to
yourself, and to all your friends; and they shall fall by the sword
of their enemies, and your eyes shall see it; and I will give all
Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them
captive to Babylon, and shall kill them with the sword.
Jer
20:5 Moreover I will give all the riches of this city, and all its
gains, and all the precious things of it, yes, all the treasures of
the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies; and
they shall make them a prey, and take them, and carry them to
Babylon.
Jer
20:6 You, Pashhur, and all who dwell in your house shall go into
captivity; and you shall come to Babylon, and there you shall die,
and there you shall be buried, you, and all your friends, to whom you
have prophesied falsely.
Jer
20:7 Yahweh, you have persuaded me, and I was persuaded; you are
stronger than I, and have prevailed: I am become a laughing-stock all
the day, every one mocks me.
Jer
20:8 For as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, Violence and
destruction! because the word of Yahweh is made a reproach to me, and
a derision, all the day.
Jer
20:9 If I say, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in
his name, then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up
in my bones, and I am weary with forbearing, and I can't contain.
Jer
20:10 For I have heard the defaming of many, terror on every side.
Denounce, and we will denounce him, say
all my familiar friends, those who watch for my fall; peradventure he
will be persuaded, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall
take our revenge on him.
Jer
20:11 But Yahweh is with me as an awesome mighty one: therefore my
persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail; they shall be
utterly disappointed, because they have not dealt wisely, even with
an everlasting dishonor which shall never be forgotten.
Jer
20:12 But, Yahweh of Armies, who tests the righteous, who sees the
heart and the mind, let me see your vengeance on them; for to you
have I revealed my cause.
Jer
20:13 Sing to Yahweh, praise you Yahweh; for he has delivered the
soul of the needy from the hand of evildoers.
Jer
20:14 Cursed be the day in which I was born: don't let the day in
which my mother bore me be blessed.
Jer
20:15 Cursed be the man who brought news to my father, saying, A boy
is born to you; making him very glad.
Jer
20:16 Let that man be as the cities which Yahweh overthrew, and
didn't repent: and let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting at
noontime;
Jer
20:17 because he didn't kill me from the womb; and so my mother
would have been my grave, and her womb always great.
Jer
20:18 Why came I forth out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that
my days should be consumed with shame?
Jer
21:1 The word which came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, when king Zedekiah
sent to him Pashhur the son of Malchijah, and Zephaniah the son of
Maaseiah, the priest, saying,
Jer
21:2 Please inquire of Yahweh for us; for Nebuchadnezzar king of
Babylon makes war against us: peradventure Yahweh will deal with us
according to all his wondrous works, that he may go up from us.
Jer
21:3 Then said Jeremiah to them, You shall tell Zedekiah:
Jer
21:4 Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, Behold, I will turn back
the weapons of war that are in your hands, with which you fight
against the king of Babylon, and against the Chaldeans who besiege
you, without the walls; and I will gather them into the midst of this
city.
Jer
21:5 I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and
with a strong arm, even in anger, and in wrath, and in great
indignation.
Jer
21:6 I will strike the inhabitants of this city, both man and
animal: they shall die of a great pestilence.
Jer
21:7 Afterward, says Yahweh, I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah,
and his servants, and the people, even such as are left in this city
from the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, into the
hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their
enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life: and he shall
strike them with the edge of the sword; he shall not spare them,
neither have pity, nor have mercy.
Jer
21:8 To this people you shall say, Thus says Yahweh: Behold, I set
before you the way of life and the way of death.
Jer
21:9 He who remains in this city shall die by the sword, and by the
famine, and by the pestilence; but he who goes out, and passes over
to the Chaldeans who besiege you, he shall live, and his life shall
be to him for a prey.
Jer
21:10 For I have set my face on this city for evil, and not for
good, says Yahweh: it shall be given into the hand of the king of
Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.
Jer
21:11 Touching the house of the king of Judah, hear you the word of
Yahweh:
Jer
21:12 House of David, thus says Yahweh, Execute justice in the
morning, and deliver him who is robbed out of the hand of the
oppressor, lest my wrath go forth like fire, and burn so that none
can quench it, because of the evil of your doings.
Jer
21:13 Behold, I am against you, O inhabitant of the valley, and
of the rock of the plain, says Yahweh; you that say, Who shall come
down against us? or who shall enter into our habitations?
Jer
21:14 I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings, says
Yahweh; and I will kindle a fire in her forest, and it shall devour
all that is around her.

is
a effort to understand the Bible by considering it from different
perspectives and different levels of literalcy. First, read the
World English Bible (the least literal-black
text)
for comprehension of the text. Next, read both the World English
Bible with the Darby Translation (more literal-blue
text)to
make comparisons and lastly, read all three versions (Young's is the
most literal translation-
red text)
at one time to obtain an overview of the text. Doing this will make
you think about what
the
Scriptures are actually saying and avoid reading in a superficial
manner.

shall tell them, Thus says Yahweh of Hosts: Even so will I break this
people and this city, as one
breaks a potter`s vessel, that can`t be made whole again; and they
shall bury in Topheth, until
there be no place to bury.
and
shalt say unto them, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Even so will I
break this people and
this
city, as one breaketh a potter`s vessel, that cannot be made whole
again. And they
shall
bury in Topheth, till there be no place to bury.
and
hast said unto them: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, Thus do I break
this people

says Yahweh of Hosts, the God of Israel, Behold, I will bring on this
city and on all its towns all
the evil that I have pronounced against it; because they have made
their neck stiff, that they may
not hear my words.
Thus

shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes shall see it;
and I will give all Judah into
the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them captive to
Babylon, and shall kill them
with the sword.

thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I make thee a terror to thyself, and to
all thy friends; and
they

[it]; and I will give
all
Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them
captive into
Babylon,
and shall smite them with the sword.
For
thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am making thee for a fear to thyself, And
to all loving
thee,

are
beholding,
And all Judah I give into the hand of the king of Babylon, And he
hath
removed
them to Babylon, And he hath smitten them with the sword.

shall make them a prey, and take them, and carry them to Babylon.

And
I have given all the strength of this city, And all its labour, and

Pashhur, and all who dwell in your house shall go into captivity; and
you shall come to
Babylon,
and there you shall die, and there shall you be buried, you, and all
your friends, to whom
you have prophesied falsely.
And
thou, Pashur, and all that dwell in thy house shall go into
captivity; and thou shalt
come
to Babylon, and there thou shalt die, and there thou shalt be
buried, thou and all
thy
friends to whom thou hast prophesied falsehood.

Jeremiah 20 7
Yahweh,
you have persuaded me, and I was persuaded; you are stronger than I,
and have
prevailed:
I am become a laughing-stock all the day, every one mocks me.
Jehovah,
thou hast enticed me, and I was enticed; thou hast laid hold of me,
and hast
prevailed;
I am become a derision the whole day: every one mocketh me.
Thou
hast persuaded me, O Jehovah, and I am persuaded; Thou hast hardened
me,
and
dost prevail, I have been for a laughter all the day, Every one is
mocking at me,
Jeremiah 20 8
For
as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, Violence and destruction!
because the word of Yahweh is made
a reproach to me, and a derision, all the day.
For
as oft as I speak, I cry out; I proclaim violence and spoil; for the
word of Jehovah is
become
unto me a reproach and a derision all the day.
Because
from the time I speak I cry out, `Violence and destruction,` I cry,
For the
word
of Jehovah hath been to me For reproach and for derision all the
day.
Jeremiah 20 9
If
I say, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his
name, then there is in my
heart
as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with
forbearing, and I can`t [contain].
And
I said, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his
name: but it was in
my
heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones; and I became wearied
with holding in,
and
I could not.
And
I said, `I do not mention Him, Nor do I speak any more in His name,`
And it
hath
been in my heart As a burning fire shut up in my bones, And I have
been
weary
of containing, And I am not able.
Jeremiah 20 10
For
I have heard the defaming of many, terror on every side. Denounce,

and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on
him.
For
I have heard the defaming of many, terror on every side: Report, and
we will report
it.
All my familiars are watching for my stumbling: Peradventure he will
be enticed, and
we shall prevail against him; and we shall take our revenge on him.
For
I have heard the evil report of many, Fear [is] round about:
`Declare, and we
declare
it,` All mine allies are watching [for] my halting, `Perhaps he is
enticed,
and
we prevail over him, And we take our vengeance out of him.`
Jeremiah 20 11
But
Yahweh is with me as an awesome mighty one: therefore my persecutors
shall stumble, and they
shall not prevail; they shall be utterly put to shame, because they
have not dealt wisely, even
with an everlasting dishonor which shall never be forgotten.
But
Jehovah is with me as a mighty terrible one; therefore my
persecutors shall stumble
and
shall not prevail; they shall be greatly ashamed, for they have not
prospered: it shall
be
an everlasting confusion that shall not be forgotten.
And
Jehovah [is] with me, as a terrible mighty one, Therefore my
persecutors
stumble
and prevail not, They have been exceedingly ashamed, For they have
not
acted
wisely, Confusion age-during is not forgotten.

But,
Yahweh of Hosts, who tests the righteous, who sees the heart and the
mind, let me see your vengeance
on them; for to you have I revealed my cause.

thou, Jehovah of hosts, who triest the righteous, who seest the
reins and the heart,
let
me see thy vengeance on them; for unto thee have I revealed my
cause.

O Jehovah of Hosts, trier of the righteous, Beholder of reins and
heart, I do

blessed!

Let
that man be as the cities which Yahweh overthrew, and didn`t repent:
and let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting at noontime;
And
let that man be as the cities which Jehovah overthrew, and repented
not; and let him
hear a cry in the morning, and a shouting at noonday,
Then
hath that man been as the cities, That Jehovah overthrew, and
repented not,
And
he hath heard a cry at morning, And a shout at time of noon.
Jeremiah 20 17
because
he didn`t kill me from the womb; and so my mother would have been my
grave, and her womb
always great.
because
he slew me not from the womb. Or would that my mother had been my
grave, and
her
womb always great [with me]!
Because
he hath not put me to death from the womb, And my mother is to me --
my
grave, And her womb a pregnancy age-during.
Jeremiah 20 18
Why
came I forth out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that my days
should be consumed with shame?
Wherefore
came I forth from the womb to see labour and sorrow, that my days
should be
consumed
in shame?
Why

Yea,
consumed
in shame are my days!

hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their
enemies, and into the hand
of those who seek their life: and he shall strike them with the edge
of the sword; he shall not
spare them, neither have pity, nor have mercy.

afterwards, saith Jehovah, I will give Zedekiah king of Judah, and

Hebrews 3
Heb 3:1 Therefore, holy
brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and
High Priest of our confession, Jesus;
Heb 3:2 who was
faithful to him who appointed him, as also was Moses in all his
house.
Heb 3:3 For he has been
counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who built the
house has more honor than the house.
Heb 3:4 For every house
is built by someone; but he who built all things is God.
Heb 3:5 Moses indeed
was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those
things which were afterward to be spoken,
Heb 3:6 but Christ is
faithful as a Son over his house; whose house we are, if we hold fast
our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.
Heb 3:7 Therefore, even
as the Holy Spirit says, "Today if you will hear his voice,
Heb 3:8 don't harden
your hearts, as in the provocation, like as in the day of the trial
in the wilderness,
Heb 3:9 where your
fathers tested me by proving me, and saw my works for forty years.
Heb 3:10 Therefore I
was displeased with that generation, and said, 'They always err in
their heart, but they didn't know my ways;'
Heb 3:11 as I swore in
my wrath, 'They will not enter into my rest.' "
Heb 3:12 Beware,
brothers, lest perhaps there be in any one of you an evil heart of
unbelief, in falling away from the living God;
Heb 3:13 but exhort one
another day by day, so long as it is called "today;" lest
any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
Heb 3:14 For we have
become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our
confidence firm to the end:
Heb 3:15 while it is
said, "Today if you will hear his voice, don't harden your
hearts, as in the rebellion."
Heb 3:16 For who, when
they heard, rebelled? No, didn't all those who came out of Egypt by
Moses?
Heb 3:17 With whom was
he displeased forty years? Wasn't it with those who sinned, whose
bodies fell in the wilderness?
Heb 3:18 To whom did he
swear that they wouldn't enter into his rest, but to those who were
disobedient?
Heb 3:19 We see that
they were not able to enter in because of unbelief.
