1  And king⁴⁴²⁸ Zedekiah⁶⁶⁶⁷ the son¹¹²¹ of Josiah²⁹⁷⁷ reigned⁴⁴²⁷ instead⁸⁴⁷⁸ of Coniah³⁶⁵⁹ the son¹¹²¹ of Jehoiakim,³⁰⁷⁹ whom⁸³⁴ Nebuchadnezzar⁵⁰¹⁹ king⁴⁴²⁸ of Babylon⁸⁹⁴ made king⁴⁴²⁷ in the land⁷⁷⁶ of Judah.³⁰⁶³

2  But neither³⁸⁰⁸ he,¹⁹³¹ nor his servants,⁵⁶⁵⁰ nor the people⁵⁹⁷¹ of the land,⁷⁷⁶ did hearken⁸⁰⁸⁵ unto⁴¹³ the words¹⁶⁹⁷ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ which⁸³⁴ he spoke¹⁶⁹⁶ by³⁰²⁷ the prophet⁵⁰³⁰ Jeremiah.³⁴¹⁴

3  And Zedekiah⁶⁶⁶⁷ the king⁴⁴²⁸ sent^{7971 853} Jehucal³⁰⁸¹ the son¹¹²¹ of Shelemiah⁸⁰¹⁸ and Zephaniah⁶⁸⁴⁶ the son¹¹²¹ of Maaseiah⁴⁶⁴¹ the priest³⁵⁴⁸ to⁴¹³ the prophet⁵⁰³⁰ Jeremiah,³⁴¹⁴ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Pray⁶⁴¹⁹ now⁴⁹⁹⁴ unto⁴¹³ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ our God⁴³⁰ for¹¹⁵⁷ us.

4  Now Jeremiah³⁴¹⁴ came in⁹³⁵ and went out³³¹⁸ among⁸⁴³² the people:⁵⁹⁷¹ for they had not³⁸⁰⁸ put⁵⁴¹⁴ him into prison.^{1004 3628}

5  Then Pharaoh's⁶⁵⁴⁷ army²⁴²⁸ was come forth³³¹⁸ out of Egypt:^{4480 4714} and when the Chaldeans³⁷⁷⁸ that besieged^{6696 5921} Jerusalem³³⁸⁹ heard^{8085 853} tidings⁸⁰⁸⁸ of them, they departed⁵⁹²⁷ from^{4480 5921} Jerusalem.³³⁸⁹

6  Then came¹⁹⁶¹ the word¹⁶⁹⁷ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ unto⁴¹³ the prophet⁵⁰³⁰ Jeremiah,³⁴¹⁴ saying,⁵⁵⁹

7  Thus³⁵⁴¹ saith⁵⁵⁹ the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ the God⁴³⁰ of Israel;³⁴⁷⁸ Thus³⁵⁴¹ shall ye say⁵⁵⁹ to⁴¹³ the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Judah,³⁰⁶³ that sent⁷⁹⁷¹ you unto⁴¹³ me to inquire¹⁸⁷⁵ of me; Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ Pharaoh's⁶⁵⁴⁷ army,²⁴²⁸ which is come forth³³¹⁸ to help⁵⁸³³ you, shall return⁷⁷²⁵ to Egypt⁴⁷¹⁴ into their own land.⁷⁷⁶

8  And the Chaldeans³⁷⁷⁸ shall come again,⁷⁷²⁵ and fight³⁸⁹⁸ against⁵⁹²¹ this²⁰⁶³ city,⁵⁸⁹² and take³⁹²⁰ it, and burn⁸³¹³ it with fire.⁷⁸⁴

9  Thus³⁵⁴¹ saith⁵⁵⁹ the LORD;³⁰⁶⁸ Deceive⁵³⁷⁷ not⁴⁰⁸ yourselves,⁵³¹⁵ saying,⁵⁵⁹ The Chaldeans³⁷⁷⁸ shall surely depart^{1980 1980} from^{4480 5921} us: for³⁵⁸⁸ they shall not³⁸⁰⁸ depart.¹⁹⁸⁰

10  For³⁵⁸⁸ though⁵¹⁸ ye had smitten⁵²²¹ the whole³⁶⁰⁵ army²⁴²⁸ of the Chaldeans³⁷⁷⁸ that fight³⁸⁹⁸ against⁸⁵⁴ you, and there remained⁷⁶⁰⁴ but wounded¹⁸⁵⁶ men³⁷⁶ among them, yet should they rise⁶⁹⁶⁵ every man³⁷⁶ in his tent,¹⁶⁸ and burn^{8313 853} this²⁰⁶³ city⁵⁸⁹² with fire.⁷⁸⁴

11  And it came to pass,¹⁹⁶¹ that when the army²⁴²⁸ of the Chaldeans³⁷⁷⁸ was broken up⁵⁹²⁷ from^{4480 5921} Jerusalem³³⁸⁹ for fear^{4480 6440} of Pharaoh's⁶⁵⁴⁷ army,²⁴²⁸

12  Then Jeremiah³⁴¹⁴ went forth³³¹⁸ out of Jerusalem^{4480 3389} to go¹⁹⁸⁰ into the land⁷⁷⁶ of Benjamin,¹¹⁴⁴ to separate himself²⁵⁰⁵ thence^{4480 8033} in the midst⁸⁴³² of the people.⁵⁹⁷¹

13  And when he¹⁹³¹ was¹⁹⁶¹ in the gate⁸¹⁷⁹ of Benjamin,¹¹⁴⁴ a captain¹¹⁶⁷ of the ward⁶⁴⁸⁸ was there,⁸⁰³³ whose name⁸⁰³⁴ was Irijah,³³⁷⁶ the son¹¹²¹ of Shelemiah,⁸⁰¹⁸ the son¹¹²¹ of Hananiah;²⁶⁰⁸ and he took^{8610 853} Jeremiah³⁴¹⁴ the prophet,⁵⁰³⁰ saying,⁵⁵⁹ Thou⁸⁵⁹ fallest away⁵³⁰⁷ to⁴¹³ the Chaldeans.³⁷⁷⁸

14  Then said⁵⁵⁹ Jeremiah,³⁴¹⁴ It is false;⁸²⁶⁷ I fall⁵³⁰⁷ not³⁶⁹ away to⁵⁹²¹ the Chaldeans.³⁷⁷⁸ But he hearkened⁸⁰⁸⁵ not³⁸⁰⁸ to⁴¹³ him: so Irijah³³⁷⁶ took⁸⁶¹⁰ Jeremiah,³⁴¹⁴ and brought⁹³⁵ him to⁴¹³ the princes.⁸²⁶⁹

15  Wherefore the princes⁸²⁶⁹ were wroth⁷¹⁰⁷ with⁵⁹²¹ Jeremiah,³⁴¹⁴ and smote⁵²²¹ him, and put⁵⁴¹⁴ him in prison^{1004 612} in the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of Jonathan³⁰⁸³ the scribe:⁵⁶⁰⁸ for³⁵⁸⁸ they had made⁶²¹³ that the prison.^{1004 3608}

16  When³⁵⁸⁸ Jeremiah³⁴¹⁴ was entered⁹³⁵ into⁴¹³ the dungeon,^{1004 953} and into⁴¹³ the cabins,²⁵⁸⁸ and Jeremiah³⁴¹⁴ had remained³⁴²⁷ there⁸⁰³³ many⁷²²⁷ days;³¹¹⁷

17  Then Zedekiah⁶⁶⁶⁷ the king⁴⁴²⁸ sent,⁷⁹⁷¹ and took³⁹⁴⁷ him out: and the king⁴⁴²⁸ asked⁷⁵⁹² him secretly⁵⁶⁴³ in his house,¹⁰⁰⁴ and said,⁵⁵⁹ Is there³⁴²⁶ any word¹⁶⁹⁷ from^{4480 854} the LORD?³⁰⁶⁸ And Jeremiah³⁴¹⁴ said,⁵⁵⁹ There is:³⁴²⁶ for, said⁵⁵⁹ he, thou shalt be delivered⁵⁴¹⁴ into the hand³⁰²⁷ of the king⁴⁴²⁸ of Babylon.⁸⁹⁴

18  Moreover Jeremiah³⁴¹⁴ said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ king⁴⁴²⁸ Zedekiah,⁶⁶⁶⁷ What⁴¹⁰⁰ have I offended²³⁹⁸ against thee, or against thy servants,⁵⁶⁵⁰ or against this²⁰⁸⁸ people,⁵⁹⁷¹ that³⁵⁸⁸ ye have put⁵⁴¹⁴ me in⁴¹³ prison?^{1004 3608}

19  Where³⁴⁶ are now your prophets⁵⁰³⁰ which⁸³⁴ prophesied⁵⁰¹² unto you, saying,⁵⁵⁹ The king⁴⁴²⁸ of Babylon⁸⁹⁴ shall not³⁸⁰⁸ come⁹³⁵ against⁵⁹²¹ you, nor against⁵⁹²¹ this²⁰⁶³ land?⁷⁷⁶

20  Therefore hear⁸⁰⁸⁵ now,⁶²⁵⁸ I pray thee,⁴⁹⁹⁴ O my lord¹¹³ the king:⁴⁴²⁸ let my supplication,⁸⁴⁶⁷ I pray thee,⁴⁹⁹⁴ be accepted⁵³⁰⁷ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ thee; that thou cause me not⁴⁰⁸ to return⁷⁷²⁵ to the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of Jonathan³⁰⁸³ the scribe,⁵⁶⁰⁸ lest³⁸⁰⁸ I die⁴¹⁹¹ there.⁸⁰³³

21  Then Zedekiah⁶⁶⁶⁷ the king⁴⁴²⁸ commanded⁶⁶⁸⁰ that they should commit^{6485 853} Jeremiah³⁴¹⁴ into the court²⁶⁹¹ of the prison,⁴³⁰⁷ and that they should give⁵⁴¹⁴ him daily³¹¹⁷ a piece³⁶⁰³ of bread³⁸⁹⁹ out of the bakers'⁶⁴⁴ street,^{4480 2351} until⁵⁷⁰⁴ all³⁶⁰⁵ the bread³⁸⁹⁹ in⁴⁴⁸⁰ the city⁵⁸⁹² were spent.⁸⁵⁵² Thus Jeremiah³⁴¹⁴ remained³⁴²⁷ in the court²⁶⁹¹ of the prison.⁴³⁰⁷

1 ὁ λόγος ὁ γενόμενος πρὸς Ιερεμιαν παρὰ κυρίου εἰπεῖν

2 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ λέγων γράψον πάντας τοὺς λόγους οὓς ἐχρημάτισα πρὸς σέ ἐπὶ βιβλίου

3 ὅτι ἰδοὺ ἡμέραι ἔρχονται φησὶν κύριος καὶ ἀποστρέψω τὴν ἀποικίαν λαοῦ μου Ισραηλ καὶ Ιουδα εἶπεν κύριος καὶ ἀποστρέψω αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν ἔδωκα τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν καὶ κυριεύσουσιν αὐτῆς

4 καὶ οὗτοι οἱ λόγοι οὓς ἐλάλησεν κύριος ἐπὶ Ισραηλ καὶ Ιουδα

5 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος φωνὴν φόβου ἀκούσεσθε φόβος καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν εἰρήνη

6 ἐρωτήσατε καὶ ἴδετε εἰ ἔτεκεν ἄρσεν καὶ περὶ φόβου ἐν ᾧ καθέξουσιν ὀσφὺν καὶ σωτηρίαν διότι ἑώρακα πάντα ἄνθρωπον καὶ αἱ χεῖρες αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τῆς ὀσφύος αὐτοῦ ἐστράφησαν πρόσωπα εἰς ἴκτερον

7 ἐγενήθη ὅτι μεγάλη ἡ ἡμέρα ἐκείνη καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν τοιαύτη καὶ χρόνος στενός ἐστιν τῷ Ιακωβ καὶ ἀπὸ τούτου σωθήσεται

8 ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ εἶπεν κύριος συντρίψω τὸν ζυγὸν ἀπὸ τοῦ τραχήλου αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς δεσμοὺς αὐτῶν διαρρήξω καὶ οὐκ ἐργῶνται αὐτοὶ ἔτι ἀλλοτρίοις

9 καὶ ἐργῶνται τῷ κυρίῳ θεῷ αὐτῶν καὶ τὸν Δαυιδ βασιλέα αὐτῶν ἀναστήσω αὐτοῖς

12 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ἀνέστησα σύντριμμα ἀλγηρὰ ἡ πληγή σου

13 οὐκ ἔστιν κρίνων κρίσιν σου εἰς ἀλγηρὸν ἰατρεύθης ὠφέλεια οὐκ ἔστιν σοι

14 πάντες οἱ φίλοι σου ἐπελάθοντό σου οὐ μὴ ἐπερωτήσουσιν ὅτι πληγὴν ἐχθροῦ ἔπαισά σε παιδείαν στερεάν ἐπὶ πᾶσαν ἀδικίαν σου ἐπλήθυναν αἱ ἁμαρτίαι σου

16 διὰ τοῦτο πάντες οἱ ἔσθοντές σε βρωθήσονται καὶ πάντες οἱ ἐχθροί σου κρέας αὐτῶν πᾶν ἔδονται ἐπὶ πλῆθος ἀδικιῶν σου ἐπληθύνθησαν αἱ ἁμαρτίαι σου ἐποίησαν ταῦτά σοι καὶ ἔσονται οἱ διαφοροῦντές σε εἰς διαφόρημα καὶ πάντας τοὺς προνομεύοντάς σε δώσω εἰς προνομήν

17 ὅτι ἀνάξω τὸ ἴαμά σου ἀπὸ πληγῆς ὀδυνηρᾶς ἰατρεύσω σε φησὶν κύριος ὅτι ἐσπαρμένη ἐκλήθης θήρευμα ὑμῶν ἐστιν ὅτι ζητῶν οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτήν

18 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀποστρέψω τὴν ἀποικίαν Ιακωβ καὶ αἰχμαλωσίαν αὐτοῦ ἐλεήσω καὶ οἰκοδομηθήσεται πόλις ἐπὶ τὸ ὕψος αὐτῆς καὶ ὁ ναὸς κατὰ τὸ κρίμα αὐτοῦ καθεδεῖται

19 καὶ ἐξελεύσονται ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν ᾄδοντες καὶ φωνὴ παιζόντων καὶ πλεονάσω αὐτούς καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐλαττωθῶσιν

20 καὶ εἰσελεύσονται οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν ὡς τὸ πρότερον καὶ τὰ μαρτύρια αὐτῶν κατὰ πρόσωπόν μου ὀρθωθήσεται καὶ ἐπισκέψομαι τοὺς θλίβοντας αὐτούς

21 καὶ ἔσονται ἰσχυρότεροι αὐτοῦ ἐπ᾽ αὐτούς καὶ ὁ ἄρχων αὐτοῦ ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἐξελεύσεται καὶ συνάξω αὐτούς καὶ ἀποστρέψουσιν πρός με ὅτι τίς ἐστιν οὗτος ὃς ἔδωκεν τὴν καρδίαν αὐτοῦ ἀποστρέψαι πρός με φησὶν κύριος

23 ὅτι ὀργὴ κυρίου ἐξῆλθεν θυμώδης ἐξῆλθεν ὀργὴ στρεφομένη ἐπ᾽ ἀσεβεῖς ἥξει

24 οὐ μὴ ἀποστραφῇ ὀργὴ θυμοῦ κυρίου ἕως ποιήσῃ καὶ ἕως καταστήσῃ ἐγχείρημα καρδίας αὐτοῦ ἐπ᾽ ἐσχάτων τῶν ἡμερῶν γνώσεσθε αὐτά

1 Et regnavit rex Sedecias filius Josiæ pro Jechonia filio Joakim, quem constituit regem Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis in terra Juda:

2 et non obedivit ipse, et servi ejus, et populus terræ, verbis Domini, quæ locutus est in manu Jeremiæ prophetæ.

3 Et misit rex Sedecias Juchal filium Selemiæ, et Sophoniam filium Maasiæ, sacerdotem, ad Jeremiam prophetam, dicens: Ora pro nobis Dominum Deum nostrum.

4 Jeremias autem libere ambulabat in medio populi: non enim miserant eum in custodiam carceris. Igitur exercitus Pharaonis egressus est de Ægypto, et audientes Chaldæi qui obsidebant Jerusalem, hujuscemodi nuntium, recesserunt ab Jerusalem.

5 Et factum est verbum Domini ad Jeremiam prophetam, dicens:

6 Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israël: Sic dicetis regi Juda, qui misit vos ad me interrogandum: Ecce exercitus Pharaonis, qui egressus est vobis in auxilium, revertetur in terram suam in Ægyptum:

7 et redient Chaldæi, et bellabunt contra civitatem hanc, et capient eam, et succendent eam igni.

8 Hæc dicit Dominus: Nolite decipere animas vestras, dicentes: Euntes abibunt, et recedent a nobis Chaldæi: quia non abibunt.

9 Sed etsi percusseritis omnem exercitum Chaldæorum qui præliantur adversum vos, et derelicti fuerint ex eis aliqui vulnerati, singuli de tentorio suo consurgent, et incendent civitatem hanc igni.

10 Ergo cum recessisset exercitus Chaldæorum ab Jerusalem, propter exercitum Pharaonis,

11 egressus est Jeremias de Jerusalem ut iret in terram Benjamin, et divideret ibi possessionem in conspectu civium.

12 Cumque pervenisset ad portam Benjamin, erat ibi custos portæ per vices, nomine Jerias filius Selemiæ filii Hananiæ: et apprehendit Jeremiam prophetam, dicens: Ad Chaldæos profugis.

13 Et respondit Jeremias: Falsum est: non fugio ad Chaldæos. Et non audivit eum, sed comprehendit Jerias Jeremiam, et adduxit eum ad principes:

14 quam ob rem irati principes contra Jeremiam, cæsum eum miserunt in carcerem qui erat in domo Jonathan scribæ: ipse enim præpositus erat super carcerem.

15 Itaque ingressus est Jeremias in domum laci et in ergastulum: et sedit ibi Jeremias diebus multis.

16 Mittens autem Sedecias rex, tulit eum: et interrogavit eum in domo sua abscondite, et dixit: Putasne est sermo a Domino? Et dixit Jeremias: Est: et ait: In manus regis Babylonis traderis.

17 Et dixit Jeremias ad regem Sedeciam: Quid peccavi tibi, et servis tuis, et populo tuo, quia misisti me in domum carceris?

18 ubi sunt prophetæ vestri, qui prophetabant vobis, et dicebant: Non veniet rex Babylonis super vos, et super terram hanc?

19 Nunc ergo audi, obsecro, domine mi rex: valeat deprecatio mea in conspectu tuo, et ne me remittas in domum Jonathan scribæ, ne moriar ibi.

20 Præcepit ergo rex Sedecias ut traderetur Jeremias in vestibulo carceris, et daretur ei torta panis quotidie, excepto pulmento, donec consumerentur omnes panes de civitate: et mansit Jeremias in vestibulo carceris.
