1
The word [1697] of the LORD [3068] that came to Jeremiah [3414] concerning [1697] the dearth. [1226]
2
Judah [3063] mourneth, [0056] and the gates [8179] thereof languish; [0535] they are black [6937] unto the ground; [0776] and the cry [6682] of Jerusalem [3389] is gone up. [5927]
3
And their nobles [0117] have sent [7971] their little ones [6810] to the waters: [4325] they came [0935] to the pits, [1356] [1360] [and] found [4672] no water; [4325] they returned [7725] with their vessels [3627] empty; [7387] they were ashamed [0954] and confounded, [3637] and covered [2645] their heads. [7218]
4
Because the ground [0127] is chapt, [2865] for there was no rain [1653] in the earth, [0776] the plowmen [0406] were ashamed, [0954] they covered [2645] their heads. [7218]
5
Yea, the hind [0365] also calved [3205] in the field, [7704] and forsook [5800] [it], because there was no grass. [1877]
6
And the wild asses [6501] did stand [5975] in the high places, [8205] they snuffed up [7602] the wind [7307] like dragons; [8577] their eyes [5869] did fail, [3615] because [there was] no grass. [6212]
7
O LORD, [3068] though our iniquities [5771] testify [6030] against us, do [6213] thou [it] for thy name's [8034] sake: for our backslidings [4878] are many; [7231] we have sinned [2398] against thee.
8
O the hope [4723] of Israel, [3478] the saviour [3467] thereof in time [6256] of trouble, [6869] why shouldest thou be as a stranger [1616] in the land, [0776] and as a wayfaring man [0732] [that] turneth aside [5186] to tarry for a night? [3885]
9
Why shouldest thou be as a man [0376] astonied, [1724] as a mighty man [1368] [that] cannot [3808] [3201] save? [3467] yet thou, O LORD, [3068] [art] in the midst [7130] of us, and we are called [7121] by thy name; [8034] leave [3240] us not.
10
Thus saith [0559] the LORD [3068] unto this people, [5971] Thus have they loved [0157] to wander, [5128] they have not refrained [2820] their feet, [7272] therefore the LORD [3068] doth not accept [7521] them; he will now remember [2142] their iniquity, [5771] and visit [6485] their sins. [2403]
11
Then said [0559] the LORD [3068] unto me, Pray [6419] not for this people [5971] for [their] good. [2896]
12
When they fast, [6684] I will not hear [8085] their cry; [7440] and when they offer [5927] burnt offering [5930] and an oblation, [4503] I will not accept [7521] them: but I will consume [3615] them by the sword, [2719] and by the famine, [7458] and by the pestilence. [1698]
13
Then said [0559] I, Ah, [0162] Lord [0136] GOD! [3069] behold, the prophets [5030] say [0559] unto them, Ye shall not see [7200] the sword, [2719] neither shall ye have famine; [7458] but I will give [5414] you assured [0571] peace [7965] in this place. [4725]
14
Then the LORD [3068] said [0559] unto me, The prophets [5030] prophesy [5012] lies [8267] in my name: [8034] I sent [7971] them not, neither have I commanded [6680] them, neither spake [1696] unto them: they prophesy [5012] unto you a false [8267] vision [2377] and divination, [7081] and a thing of nought, [0434] and the deceit [8649] of their heart. [3820]
15
Therefore thus saith [0559] the LORD [3068] concerning the prophets [5030] that prophesy [5012] in my name, [8034] and I sent [7971] them not, yet they say, [0559] Sword [2719] and famine [7458] shall not be in this land; [0776] By sword [2719] and famine [7458] shall those prophets [5030] be consumed. [8552]
16
And the people [5971] to whom they prophesy [5012] shall be cast out [7993] in the streets [2351] of Jerusalem [3389] because [6440] of the famine [7458] and the sword; [2719] and they shall have none to bury [6912] them, [1992] them, their wives, [0802] nor their sons, [1121] nor their daughters: [1323] for I will pour [8210] their wickedness [7451] upon them.
17
Therefore thou shalt say [0559] this word [1697] unto them; Let mine eyes [5869] run down [3381] with tears [1832] night [3915] and day, [3119] and let them not cease: [1820] for the virgin [1330] daughter [1323] of my people [5971] is broken [7665] with a great [1419] breach, [7667] with a very [3966] grievous [2470] blow. [4347]
18
If I go forth [3318] into the field, [7704] then behold the slain [2491] with the sword! [2719] and if I enter [0935] into the city, [5892] then behold them that are sick [8463] with famine! [7458] yea, both the prophet [5030] and the priest [3548] go about [5503] into a land [0776] that they know [3045] not.
19
Hast thou utterly [3988] rejected [3988] Judah? [3063] hath thy soul [5315] lothed [1602] Zion? [6726] why hast thou smitten [5221] us, and [there is] no healing [4832] for us? we looked [6960] for peace, [7965] and [there is] no good; [2896] and for the time [6256] of healing, [4832] and behold trouble! [1205]
20
We acknowledge, [3045] O LORD, [3068] our wickedness, [7562] [and] the iniquity [5771] of our fathers: [0001] for we have sinned [2398] against thee.
21
Do not abhor [5006] [us], for thy name's [8034] sake, do not disgrace [5034] the throne [3678] of thy glory: [3519] remember, [2142] break [6565] not thy covenant [1285] with us.
22
Are there [3426] [any] among the vanities [1892] of the Gentiles [1471] that can cause rain? [1652] or can the heavens [8064] give [5414] showers? [7241] [art] not thou he, O LORD [3068] our God? [0430] therefore we will wait [6960] upon thee: for thou hast made [6213] all these [things].
