1THE WORDS of Jeremiah son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin [two or three miles north of Jerusalem],H1697H3414H1121H2518H3548H6068H776H1144 2To whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah in the thirteenth year of his reign.H1697H3068H3117H2977H1121H526H4428H3063H7969H6240H8141H4427 3It came also in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah until the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah son of Josiah king of Judah, until the carrying away of Jerusalem into captivity in the fifth month.H3117H3079H1121H2977H4428H3063H8552H6249H6240H8141H6667H1121H2977H4428H3063H1540H3389H1540H2549H2320 4Then the word of the Lord came to me [Jeremiah], saying,H1697H3068H559 5Before I formed you in the womb I knew [and] approved of you [as My chosen instrument], and before you were born I separated {and} set you apart, consecrating you; [and] I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.H2962H3335H990H3045H3318H7358H6942H5414H5030H1471 6Then said I, Ah, Lord God! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am only a youth.H559H162H136H3069H3045H1696H5288 7But the Lord said to me, Say not, I am only a youth; for you shall go to all to whom I shall send you, and whatever I command you, you shall speak.H3068H559H559H5288H3212H7971H6680H1696 8Be not afraid of them [their faces], for I am with you to deliver you, says the Lord.H3372H6440H5337H5002H3068 9Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth. And the Lord said to me, Behold, I have put My words in your mouth.H3068H7971H3027H5060H6310H3068H559H5414H1697H6310 10See, I have this day appointed you to the oversight of the nations and of the kingdoms to root out and pull down, to destroy and to overthrow, to build and to plant.H7200H3117H6485H1471H4467H5428H5422H6H2040H1129H5193 11Moreover, the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Jeremiah, what do you see? And I said, I see a branch {or} shoot of an almond tree [the emblem of alertness and activity, blossoming in late winter].H1697H3068H559H3414H7200H559H7200H4731H8247 12Then said the Lord to me, You have seen well, for I am alert {and} active, watching over My word to perform it.H559H3068H3190H7200H8245H1697H6213 13And the word of the Lord came to me the second time, saying, What do you see? And I said, I see a boiling pot, and the face of it is [tipped away] from the north [its mouth about to pour forth on the south, on Judea].H1697H3068H8145H559H7200H559H7200H5301H5518H6440H6440H6828 14Then the Lord said to me, Out of the north the evil [which the prophets had foretold as the result of national sin] shall disclose itself {and} break forth upon all the inhabitants of the land.H3068H559H6828H7451H6605H3427H776 15For, behold, I will call all the tribes of the kingdoms of the north, says the Lord; and they will come and set every one his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, against all its walls round about, and against all the cities of Judah [as God's judicial act, a consequence of Judah's wickedness].H7121H4940H4467H6828H5002H3068H935H5414H376H3678H6607H8179H3389H2346H5439H5892H3063 16And I will utter My judgments against them for all the wickedness of those who have forsaken Me, burned incense to other gods, and worshiped the works of their own hands [idols].H1696H4941H5921H7451H5800H6999H312H430H7812H4639H3027 17But you [Jeremiah], gird up your loins! Arise and tell them all that I command you. Do not be dismayed {and} break down at the sight of their faces, lest I confound you before them {and} permit you to be overcome.H247H4975H6965H1696H6680H2865H6440H2865H6440 18For I, behold, I have made you this day a fortified city and an iron pillar and bronze walls against the whole land--against the [successive] kings of Judah, against its princes, against its priests, and against the people of the land [giving you divine strength which no hostile power can overcome].H589H5414H3117H4013H5892H1270H5982H5178H2346H776H4428H3063H8269H3548H5971H776 19And they shall fight against you, but they shall not [finally] prevail against you, for I am with you, says the Lord, to deliver you.H3898H3201H5002H3068H5337
