Amplified Bible Help
15THEN THE Lord said to me, Though Moses and Samuel stood [interceding for them] before Me, yet My mind could not be turned with favor toward this people [Judah]. Send them out of My sight and let them go!H559H3068H4872H8050H5975H6440H5315H5971H7971H6440H3318 2And if they say to you, Where shall we go? then tell them, Thus says the Lord: Such as are [destined] for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for famine, to famine; and such as are for captivity, to captivity.H559H3318H559H559H3068H4194H4194H2719H2719H7458H7458H7628H7628 3And I will appoint over them four kinds [of destroyers], says the Lord: the sword to slay, the dogs to tear {and} drag away, and the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth to devour and to destroy.H6485H702H4940H5002H3068H2719H2026H3611H5498H5775H8064H929H776H398H7843 4And I will cause them to be tossed to and fro among all the kingdoms of the earth {and} to be made a horror to all nations because of Manasseh son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for [the horrible wickedness] which he did in Jerusalem.H5414H2189H2113H4467H776H1558H4519H1121H3169H4428H3063H6213H3389 5For who will have pity on you, O Jerusalem? Or who will bemoan you? Or who will turn aside to ask about your welfare?H2550H3389H5110H5493H7592H7965 6You have rejected {and} forsaken Me, says the Lord. You keep going in reverse. Therefore I will stretch out My hand against you and destroy you; I am weary of relenting [concerning your punishment].H5203H5002H3068H3212H268H5186H3027H7843H3811H5162 7I will winnow them with a fan {and} a winnowing fork in the gates of the land; I will bereave them [of children], I will destroy My people; from their [evil] ways they did not return.H2219H4214H8179H776H7921H6H5971H7725H1870 8I will increase the number of their widows more than the sand of the seas. I will bring upon them, [both] against the mother of young men {and} the young men [themselves], a destroyer at noonday. I will cause anguish and terrors to fall upon her [Jerusalem] suddenly.H490H6105H2344H3220H935H517H970H7703H6672H5307H6597H928H5892 9She who has borne seven languishes; she has expired. Her sun has gone down while it was yet day; she has been put to shame, confounded, {and} disgraced. And the rest of them I will deliver to the sword before their enemies, says the Lord.H3205H7651H535H5301H5315H8121H935H3119H3117H954H2659H7611H5414H2719H6440H341H5002H3068 10Woe is me, my mother, that you bore me to be a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have neither loaned, nor have men loaned to me, yet everyone curses me.H188H517H3205H376H7379H376H4066H776H5383H5383H7043 11The Lord said, Truly your release, affliction, {and} strengthening will be for good [purposes]; surely [Jeremiah] I will intercede for you with the enemy {and} I will cause the enemy to ask for your aid in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.H3068H559H3808H518H2896H8281H8293H518H341H6293H6256H7451H6256H6869 12Can iron break the iron from the north and the bronze?H1270H7489H6828H1270H5178 13Your [nation's] substance and your treasures will I give as spoil, without price, and that for all your sins, even in all your territory.H2428H214H5414H957H4242H2403H1366 14And I will make [your possessions] to pass with your enemies into a land which you do not know {and} I will make you to serve [your conquerors] there, for a fire is kindled in My anger which will burn upon you [Israel].H5674H341H776H3045H784H6919H639H3344 15[Jeremiah said] O Lord, You know {and} understand; [earnestly] remember me and visit me and avenge me on my persecutors. Take me not away [from joy or from life itself] in Your long-suffering [to my enemies]; know that for Your sake I suffer {and} bear reproach.H3068H3045H2142H6485H5358H7291H3947H639H750H3045H5375H2781 16Your words were found, and I ate them; and Your words were to me a joy and the rejoicing of my heart, for I am called by Your name, O Lord God of hosts.H1697H4672H398H1697H8342H8057H3824H7121H8034H3068H430H6635 17I sat not in the assembly of those who make merry, nor did I rejoice; I sat alone because Your [powerful] hand was upon me, for You had filled me with indignation.H3427H5475H7832H5937H3427H910H6440H3027H4390H2195 18Why is my pain perpetual and my wound incurable, refusing to be healed? Will you indeed be to me like a deceitful brook, like waters that fail {and} are uncertain?H3511H5331H4347H605H3985H7495H391H4325H539 19Therefore thus says the Lord [to Jeremiah]: If you return [and give up this mistaken tone of distrust and despair], then I will give you again a settled place of quiet {and} safety, and you will be My minister; and if you separate the precious from the vile [cleansing your own heart from unworthy and unwarranted suspicions concerning God's faithfulness], you shall be My mouthpiece. [But do not yield to them.] Let them return to you--not you to [the people].H559H3068H7725H7725H5975H6440H3318H3368H2151H6310H7725H7725 20And I will make you to this people a fortified, bronze wall; they will fight against you, but they will not prevail over you, for I am with you to save {and} deliver you, says the Lord.H5414H5971H1219H5178H2346H3898H3201H3467H5337H5002H3068 21And I will deliver you out of the hands of the wicked, and I will redeem you out of the palms of the terrible {and} ruthless tyrants.H5337H3027H7451H6299H3709H6184
