Jeremiah
26-29
Jer
26:1 In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah,
king of Judah, came this word from Yahweh, saying,
Jer
26:2 Thus says Yahweh: Stand in the court of Yahweh's house, and
speak to all the cities of Judah, which come to worship in Yahweh's
house, all the words that I command you to speak to them; don't
diminish a word.
Jer
26:3 It may be they will listen, and turn every man from his evil
way; that I may repent me of the evil which I purpose to do to them
because of the evil of their doings.
Jer
26:4 You shall tell them, Thus says Yahweh: If you will not listen
to me, to walk in my law, which I have set before you,
Jer
26:5 to listen to the words of my servants the prophets, whom I send
to you, even rising up early and sending them, but you have not
listened;
Jer
26:6 then will I make this house like Shiloh, and will make this
city a curse to all the nations of the earth.
Jer
26:7 The priests and the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah
speaking these words in the house of Yahweh.
Jer
26:8 It happened, when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking all that
Yahweh had commanded him to speak to all the people, that the priests
and the prophets and all the people laid hold on him, saying, You
shall surely die.
Jer
26:9 Why have you prophesied in the name of Yahweh, saying, This
house shall be like Shiloh, and this city shall be desolate, without
inhabitant? All the people were gathered to Jeremiah in the house of
Yahweh.
Jer
26:10 When the princes of Judah heard these things, they came up
from the king's house to the house of Yahweh; and they sat in the
entry of the new gate of Yahweh's house.
Jer
26:11 Then spoke the priests and the prophets to the princes and to
all the people, saying, This man is worthy of death; for he has
prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your ears.
Jer
26:12 Then spoke Jeremiah to all the princes and to all the people,
saying, Yahweh sent me to prophesy against this house and against
this city all the words that you have heard.
Jer
26:13 Now therefore amend your ways and your doings, and obey the
voice of Yahweh your God; and Yahweh will repent him of the evil that
he has pronounced against you.
Jer
26:14 But as for me, behold, I am in your hand: do with me as is
good and right in your eyes.
Jer
26:15 Only know for certain that, if you put me to death, you will
bring innocent blood on yourselves, and on this city, and on its
inhabitants; for of a truth Yahweh has sent me to you to speak all
these words in your ears.
Jer
26:16 Then said the princes and all the people to the priests and to
the prophets: This man is not worthy of death; for he has spoken to
us in the name of Yahweh our God.
Jer
26:17 Then rose up certain of the elders of the land, and spoke to
all the assembly of the people, saying,
Jer
26:18 Micah the Morashtite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king
of Judah; and he spoke to all the people of Judah, saying, Thus says
Yahweh of Armies: Zion shall be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem
shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places
of a forest.
Jer
26:19 Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him to death?
Didn't he fear Yahweh, and entreat the favor of Yahweh, and Yahweh
relented of the disaster which he had pronounced against them? Thus
should we commit great evil against our own souls.
Jer
26:20 There was also a man who prophesied in the name of Yahweh,
Uriah the son of Shemaiah of Kiriath Jearim; and he prophesied
against this city and against this land according to all the words of
Jeremiah:
Jer
26:21 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 Uriah heard it, he was afraid, and fled, and went into
Egypt:
Jer
26:22 and Jehoiakim the king sent men into Egypt, namely,
Elnathan the son of Achbor, and certain men with him, into Egypt;
Jer
26:23 and they fetched forth Uriah out of Egypt, and brought him to
Jehoiakim the king, who killed him with the sword, and cast his dead
body into the graves of the common people.
Jer
26:24 But 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.
Jer
27:1 In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah,
king of Judah, came this word to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,
Jer
27:2 Thus says Yahweh to me: Make bonds and bars, and put them on
your neck;
Jer
27:3 and send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and
to the king of the children of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to
the king of Sidon, by the hand of the messengers who come to
Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah;
Jer
27:4 and give them a command to their masters, saying, Thus says
Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, You shall tell your masters:
Jer
27:5 I have made the earth, the men and the animals that are on the
surface of the earth, by my great power and by my outstretched arm;
and I give it to whom it seems right to me.
Jer
27:6 Now have I given all these lands into the hand of
Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant; and the animals of
the field also have I given him to serve him.
Jer
27:7 All the nations shall serve him, and his son, and his son's
son, until the time of his own land come: and then many nations and
great kings shall make him their bondservant.
Jer
27:8 It shall happen, that the nation and the kingdom which will not
serve the same Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and that will not put
their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, that nation will I
punish, says Yahweh, with the sword, and with the famine, and with
the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand.
Jer
27:9 But as for you, don't you listen to your prophets, nor to your
diviners, nor to your dreams, nor to your soothsayers, nor to your
sorcerers, who speak to you, saying, You shall not serve the king of
Babylon:
Jer
27:10 for they prophesy a lie to you, to remove you far from your
land, and that I should drive you out, and you should perish.
Jer
27:11 But the nation that shall bring their neck under the yoke of
the king of Babylon, and serve him, that nation
will I let remain in their own land, says Yahweh; and they shall till
it, and dwell therein.
Jer
27:12 I spoke 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.
Jer
27:13 Why will you die, you and your people, by the sword, by the
famine, and by the pestilence, as Yahweh has spoken concerning the
nation that will not serve the king of Babylon?
Jer
27:14 Don't listen to the words of the prophets who speak to you,
saying, You shall not serve the king of Babylon; for they prophesy a
lie to you.
Jer
27:15 For I have not sent them, says Yahweh, but they prophesy
falsely in my name; that I may drive you out, and that you may
perish, you, and the prophets who prophesy to you.
Jer
27:16 Also I spoke to the priests and to all this people, saying,
Thus says Yahweh: Don't listen to the words of your prophets who
prophesy to you, saying, Behold, the vessels of Yahweh's house shall
now shortly be brought again from Babylon; for they prophesy a lie to
you.
Jer
27:17 Don't listen to them; serve the king of Babylon, and live: why
should this city become a desolation?
Jer
27:18 But if they be prophets, and if the word of Yahweh be with
them, let them now make intercession to Yahweh of Armies, that the
vessels which are left in the house of Yahweh, and in the house of
the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem, don't go to Babylon.
Jer
27:19 For thus says Yahweh of Armies concerning the pillars, and
concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the
residue of the vessels that are left in this city,
Jer
27:20 which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon didn't take, 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;
Jer
27:21 yes, thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, concerning
the vessels that are left in the house of Yahweh, and in the house of
the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem:
Jer
27:22 They shall be carried to Babylon, and there shall they be,
until the day that I visit them, says Yahweh; then will I bring them
up, and restore them to this place.
Jer
28:1 It happened the same year, in the beginning of the reign of
Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, in the fifth month, that
Hananiah the son of Azzur, the prophet, who was of Gibeon, spoke to
me in the house of Yahweh, in the presence of the priests and of all
the people, saying,
Jer
28:2 Thus speaks Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, saying, I have
broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.
Jer
28:3 Within two full years will I bring again into this place all
the vessels of Yahweh's house, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon
took away from this place, and carried to Babylon:
Jer
28:4 and I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of
Jehoiakim, king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, who went to
Babylon, says Yahweh; for I will break the yoke of the king of
Babylon.
Jer
28:5 Then the prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah in the
presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people who
stood in the house of Yahweh,
Jer
28:6 even the prophet Jeremiah said, Amen: Yahweh do so; Yahweh
perform your words which you have prophesied, to bring again the
vessels of Yahweh's house, and all them of the captivity, from
Babylon to this place.
Jer
28:7 Nevertheless hear you now this word that I speak in your ears,
and in the ears of all the people:
Jer
28:8 The prophets who have been before me and before you of old
prophesied against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of
war, and of evil, and of pestilence.
Jer
28:9 The prophet who prophesies of peace, when the word of the
prophet shall happen, then shall the prophet be known, that Yahweh
has truly sent him.
Jer
28:10 Then Hananiah the prophet took the bar from off the prophet
Jeremiah's neck, and broke it.
Jer
28:11 Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus
says Yahweh: Even so will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of
Babylon within two full years from off the neck of all the nations.
The prophet Jeremiah went his way.
Jer
28:12 Then the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah, after that Hananiah
the prophet had broken the bar from off the neck of the prophet
Jeremiah, saying,
Jer
28:13 Go, and tell Hananiah, saying, Thus says Yahweh: You have
broken the bars of wood; but you have made in their place bars of
iron.
Jer
28:14 For thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: I have put
a yoke of iron on 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 animals of the field also.
Jer
28:15 Then said the prophet Jeremiah to Hananiah the prophet, Hear
now, Hananiah: Yahweh has not sent you; but you make this people to
trust in a lie.
Jer
28:16 Therefore thus says Yahweh, Behold, I will send you away from
off the surface of the earth: this year you shall die, because you
have spoken rebellion against Yahweh.
Jer
28:17 So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh
month.
Jer
29:1 Now these are the words of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet
sent from Jerusalem to the residue of the elders of the captivity,
and to the priests, and to the prophets, and to all the people, whom
Nebuchadnezzar had carried away captive from Jerusalem to Babylon,
Jer
29:2 (after that Jeconiah the king, and the queen mother, and the
eunuchs, and
the princes of Judah and Jerusalem, and the craftsmen, and the
smiths, were departed from Jerusalem),
Jer
29:3 by the hand of Elasah the son of Shaphan, and Gemariah the son
of Hilkiah, (whom Zedekiah king of Judah sent to Babylon to
Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon), saying,
Jer
29:4 Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, to all the
captivity, whom I have caused to be carried away captive from
Jerusalem to Babylon:
Jer
29:5 Build you houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat
the fruit of them.
Jer
29:6 Take wives, and father sons and daughters; and take wives for
your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, that they may bear
sons and daughters; and multiply you there, and don't be diminished.
Jer
29:7 Seek the peace of the city where I have caused you to be
carried away captive, and pray to Yahweh for it; for in its peace you
shall have peace.
Jer
29:8 For thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: Don't let
your prophets who are in the midst of you, and your diviners, deceive
you; neither listen you to your dreams which you cause to be dreamed.
Jer
29:9 For they prophesy falsely to you in my name: I have not sent
them, says Yahweh.
Jer
29:10 For thus says Yahweh, After seventy years are accomplished for
Babylon, I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in
causing you to return to this place.
Jer
29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh,
thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope in your latter
end.
Jer
29:12 You shall call on me, and you shall go and pray to me, and I
will listen to you.
Jer
29:13 You shall seek me, and find me, when you shall search for me
with all your heart.
Jer
29:14 I will be found by you, says Yahweh, and I will turn again
your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from
all the places where I have driven you, says Yahweh; and I will bring
you again to the place from where I caused you to be carried away
captive.
Jer
29:15 Because you have said, Yahweh has raised us up prophets in
Babylon;
Jer
29:16 thus says Yahweh concerning the king who sits on the throne of
David, and concerning all the people who dwell in this city, your
brothers who haven't gone forth with you into captivity;
Jer
29:17 thus says Yahweh of Armies; Behold, I will send on them the
sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like vile
figs, that can't be eaten, they are so bad.
Jer
29:18 I will pursue after them with the sword, with the famine, and
with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be tossed back and
forth among all the kingdoms of the earth, to be an object of horror,
and an astonishment, and a hissing, and a reproach, among all the
nations where I have driven them;
Jer
29:19 because they have not listened to my words, says Yahweh, with
which I sent to them my servants the prophets, rising up early and
sending them; but you would not hear, says Yahweh.
Jer
29:20 Hear you therefore the word of Yahweh, all you of the
captivity, whom I have sent away from Jerusalem to Babylon.
Jer
29:21 Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, concerning Ahab
the son of Kolaiah, and concerning Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, who
prophesy a lie to you in my name: Behold, I will deliver them into
the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and he shall kill them
before your eyes;
Jer
29:22 and of them shall be taken up a curse by all the captives of
Judah who are in Babylon, saying, Yahweh make you like Zedekiah and
like Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire;
Jer
29:23 because they have worked folly in Israel, and have committed
adultery with their neighbors' wives, and have spoken words in my
name falsely, which I didn't command them; and I am he who knows, and
am witness, says Yahweh.
Jer
29:24 Concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite you shall speak, saying,
Jer
29:25 Thus speaks Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, saying,
Because you have sent letters in your own name to all the people who
are at Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest,
and to all the priests, saying,
Jer
29:26 Yahweh has made you priest in the place of Jehoiada the
priest, that there may be officers in the house of Yahweh, for every
man who is mad, and makes himself a prophet, that you should put him
in the stocks and in shackles.
Jer
29:27 Now therefore, why have you not rebuked Jeremiah of Anathoth,
who makes himself a prophet to you,
Jer
29:28 because he has sent to us in Babylon, saying, The
captivity is long: build you houses, and
dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them?
Jer
29:29 Zephaniah the priest read this letter in the ears of Jeremiah
the prophet.
Jer
29:30 Then came the word of Yahweh to Jeremiah, saying,
Jer
29:31 Send to all them of the captivity, saying, Thus says Yahweh
concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite: Because Shemaiah has prophesied
to you, and I didn't send him, and he has caused you to trust in a
lie;
Jer
29:32 therefore thus says Yahweh, Behold, I will punish Shemaiah the
Nehelamite, and his seed; he shall not have a man to dwell among this
people, neither shall he see the good that I will do to my people,
says Yahweh, because he has spoken rebellion against Yahweh.

The

Bible
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.
Jeremiah
Jeremiah 26 1
In
the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of
Judah, came this word from Yahweh,
saying,

to speak to them; don`t
diminish a word.
Thus
saith Jehovah: Stand in the court of Jehovah`s house, and speak unto
all the cities of
Judah,
which come to worship in Jehovah`s house, all the words that I
command thee to
speak
unto them: diminish not a word.
`Thus
said Jehovah, Stand thou in the court of the house of Jehovah, and

spoken
unto all [those of] the cities of Judah who are coming in to bow
themselves
in
the house of Jehovah, all the words that I have commanded thee to
speak unto
them,
thou dost not diminish a word.
Jeremiah 26 3
It
may be they will listen, and turn every man from his evil way; that I
may repent me of the evil which
I purpose to do to them because of the evil of their doings.
Peradventure
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
wickedness of their doings.
If
so be they hearken, and turn back each from his evil way, then I
have repented
concerning
the evil that I am thinking of doing to them, because of the evil of
their
doings.
Jeremiah 26 4
You
shall tell them, Thus says Yahweh: If you will not listen to me, to
walk in my law, which I have
set before you,

unto me, to walk
in
my law, which I have set before you,
`And
thou hast said unto them: Thus said Jehovah, If ye do not hearken
unto Me, to
walk
in My law, that I set before you,
Jeremiah 26 5
to
listen to the words of my servants the prophets, whom I send to you,
even rising up early and sending
them, but you have not listened;
to
hearken unto the words of my servants the prophets, whom I have sent
unto you, even
rising
early and sending [them], but ye have not hearkened,
To
hearken to the words of My servants the prophets, whom I am sending
unto you,
yea, rising early and sending, and ye have not hearkened,

then
will I make this house like Shiloh, and will make this city a curse
to all the nations of the earth.
--
then will I make this house like Shiloh, and will make this city a
curse to all the
nations
of the earth.
Then
I have given up this house as Shiloh, and this city I give up for a
reviling to
all
nations of the earth.`

of Yahweh.

hast thou prophesied in the name of Jehovah, saying, This house
shall be like Shiloh,

house
shall be, and this city is wasted, without inhabitant?` and all the
people are
assembled unto Jeremiah in the house of Jehovah.

Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him to death? Didn`t he fear
Yahweh, and entreat the
favor of Yahweh, and Yahweh repented him of the evil which he had
pronounced against them?
Thus should we commit great evil against our own souls.
Did
Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him at all to death? Did he
not fear Jehovah,
and supplicate Jehovah, and Jehovah repented him of the evil that he
had pronounced
against
them? And we should be doing a great evil against our souls.
`Put
him at all to death did Hezekiah king of Judah, and all Judah? Did
he not fear
Jehovah?
yea, he appeaseth the face of Jehovah, and Jehovah repenteth
concerning
the
evil that He spake against them; and we are doing great evil against
our souls.
Jeremiah 26 20

to all the words
of Jeremiah:
And
there was also a man that prophesied in the name of Jehovah, Urijah
the son of
Shemaiah
of Kirjath-jearim: and he prophesied against this city and against
this land
according

`And
also there hath been a man prophesying in the name of Jehovah,
Urijah son of
Shemaiah, of Kirjath-Jearim, and he prophesieth against this city,
and against
this
land according to all the words of Jeremiah,
Jeremiah 26 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 Uriah heard it, he was
afraid, and fled, and went into Egypt:
and
Jehoiakim the king, and all his mighty men, and all the princes,
heard his words, and
the king sought to put him to death; but Urijah heard it, and he was
afraid, and fled, and
went into Egypt.
And
the king Jehoiakim, and all his mighty ones, and all the heads, hear
his
words,
and the king seeketh to put him to death, and Urijah heareth, and
feareth,
and
fleeth, and goeth in to Egypt.

and
Jehoiakim the king sent men into Egypt, [namely], Elnathan the son of
Achbor, and certain men
with him, into Egypt;

Jehoiakim the king sent men into Egypt, Elnathan the son of Achbor,
and men with
him,
into Egypt;

with
him unto Egypt --

they fetched forth Uriah out of Egypt, and brought him to Jehoiakim
the king, who killed him
with the sword, and cast his dead body into the graves of the common
people.

the king; and
he
slew him with the sword, and cast his dead body into the graves of

Jehoiakim,
and
he smiteth him with a sword, and casteth his corpse unto the graves
of the
sons
of the people.`
Jeremiah 26 24
But
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.
--
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.
Only,
the hand of Ahikam son of Shaphan hath been with Jeremiah so as not
to give
him up into the hand of the people to put him to death.

the nation that bringeth its neck under the yoke of the king of
Babylon and serveth
him,
will I let remain still in its own land, saith Jehovah; and they
shall till it, and dwell
therein.

the earth: this

Hebrews 5
Heb 5:1 For every high
priest, being taken from among men, is appointed for men in things
pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for
sins.
Heb 5:2 The high priest
can deal gently with those who are ignorant and going astray, because
he himself is also surrounded with weakness.
Heb 5:3 Because of
this, he must offer sacrifices for sins for the people, as well as
for himself.
Heb 5:4 Nobody takes
this honor on himself, but he is called by God, just like Aaron was.
Heb 5:5 So also Christ
didn't glorify himself to be made a high priest, but it was he who
said to him, "You are my Son. Today I have become your father."
Heb 5:6 As he says also
in another place, "You are a priest forever, after the order of
Melchizedek."
Heb 5:7 He, in the days
of his flesh, having offered up prayers and petitions with strong
crying and tears to him who was able to save him from death, and
having been heard for his godly fear,
Heb 5:8 though he was a
Son, yet learned obedience by the things which he suffered.
Heb 5:9 Having been
made perfect, he became to all of those who obey him the author of
eternal salvation,
Heb 5:10 named by God a
high priest after the order of Melchizedek.
Heb 5:11 About him we

Heb 5:12 For when by
reason of the time you ought to be teachers, you again need to have

who lives on milk is not experienced in the word of righteousness,
for he is a baby.
Heb 5:14 But solid food
is for those who are full grown, who by reason of use have their
senses exercised to discern good and evil.

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

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-

at one time to obtain an overview of the text. Doing this will make
you think about what
the
