Verses 1701–1800 of 1919 (page 18 of 20)
וַיְצַוֶּה הַמֶּלֶךְ אֶת-יְרַחְמְאֵל בֶּן-הַמֶּלֶךְ וְאֶת-שְׂרָיָהוּ בֶן-עַזְרִיאֵל וְאֶת-שֶֽׁלֶמְיָהוּ בֶּֽן-עַבְדְּאֵל לָקַחַת אֶת-בָּרוּךְ הַסֹּפֵר וְאֵת יִרְמְיָהוּ הַנָּבִיא וַיַּסְתִּרֵם יְהוָֽה׃
But the king commanded Jerahmeel the son of Hammelech, and Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet: but the LORD hid them.
וַיְהִי דְבַר-יְהוָה אֶֽל-יִרְמְיָהוּ אַחֲרֵי׀ שְׂרֹף הַמֶּלֶךְ אֶת-הַמְּגִלָּה וְאֶת-הַדְּבָרִים אֲשֶׁר כָּתַב בָּרוּךְ מִפִּי יִרְמְיָהוּ לֵאמֹֽר׃
Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, after that the king had burned the roll, and the words which Baruch wrote at the mouth of Jeremiah, saying,
שׁוּב קַח-לְךָ מְגִלָּה אַחֶרֶת וּכְתֹב עָלֶיהָ אֵת כָּל-הַדְּבָרִים הָרִאשֹׁנִים אֲשֶׁר הָיוּ עַל-הַמְּגִלָּה הָרִאשֹׁנָה אֲשֶׁר שָׂרַף יְהוֹיָקִים מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָֽה׃
Take thee again another roll, and write in it all the former words that were in the first roll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah hath burned.
וְעַל-יְהוֹיָקִים מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה תֹּאמַר כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה אַתָּה שָׂרַפְתָּ אֶת-הַמְּגִלָּה הַזֹּאת לֵאמֹר מַדּוּעַ כָּתַבְתָּ עָלֶיהָ לֵאמֹר בֹּֽא-יָבוֹא מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל וְהִשְׁחִית אֶת-הָאָרֶץ הַזֹּאת וְהִשְׁבִּית מִמֶּנָּה אָדָם וּבְהֵמָֽה׃
And thou shalt say to Jehoiakim king of Judah, Thus saith the LORD; Thou hast burned this roll, saying, Why hast thou written therein, saying, The king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause to cease from thence man and beast?
לָכֵן כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה עַל-יְהֽוֹיָקִים מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה לֹא-יִֽהְיֶה-לּוֹ יוֹשֵׁב עַל-כִּסֵּא דָוִד וְנִבְלָתוֹ תִּֽהְיֶה מֻשְׁלֶכֶת לַחֹרֶב בַּיּוֹם וְלַקֶּרַח בַּלָּֽיְלָה׃
Therefore thus saith the LORD of Jehoiakim king of Judah; He shall have none to sit upon the throne of David: and his dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
וְיִרְמְיָהוּ לָקַח׀ מְגִלָּה אַחֶרֶת וַֽיִּתְּנָהּ אֶל-בָּרוּךְ בֶּן-נֵרִיָּהוּ הַסֹּפֵר וַיִּכְתֹּב עָלֶיהָ מִפִּי יִרְמְיָהוּ אֵת כָּל-דִּבְרֵי הַסֵּפֶר אֲשֶׁר שָׂרַף יְהוֹיָקִים מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה בָּאֵשׁ וְעוֹד נוֹסַף עֲלֵיהֶם דְּבָרִים רַבִּים כָּהֵֽמָּה׃
Then took Jeremiah another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah; who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire: and there were added besides unto them many like words.
וַיִּמְלָךְ-מֶלֶךְ צִדְקִיָּהוּ בֶּן-יֹֽאשִׁיָּהוּ תַּחַת כָּנְיָהוּ בֶּן-יְהוֹיָקִים אֲשֶׁר הִמְלִיךְ נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל בְּאֶרֶץ יְהוּדָֽה׃
And king Zedekiah the son of Josiah reigned instead of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim, whom Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon made king in the land of Judah.
וַיִּשְׁלַח הַמֶּלֶךְ צִדְקִיָּהוּ אֶת-יְהוּכַל בֶּן-שֶֽׁלֶמְיָה וְאֶת-צְפַנְיָהוּ בֶן-מַֽעֲשֵׂיָה הַכֹּהֵן אֶל-יִרְמְיָהוּ הַנָּבִיא לֵאמֹר הִתְפַּלֶּל-נָא בַעֲדֵנוּ אֶל-יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃
And Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, Pray now unto the LORD our God for us.
כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל כֹּה תֹֽאמְרוּ אֶל-מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה הַשֹּׁלֵחַ אֶתְכֶם אֵלַי לְדָרְשֵׁנִי הִנֵּה׀ חֵיל פַּרְעֹה הַיֹּצֵא לָכֶם לְעֶזְרָה שָׁב לְאַרְצוֹ מִצְרָֽיִם׃
Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel; Thus shall ye say to the king of Judah, that sent you unto me to inquire of me; Behold, Pharaoh's army, which is come forth to help you, shall return to Egypt into their own land.
וַיִּשְׁלַח הַמֶּלֶךְ צִדְקִיָּהוּ וַיִּקָּחֵהוּ וַיִּשְׁאָלֵהוּ הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּבֵיתוֹ בַּסֵּתֶר וַיֹּאמֶר הֲיֵשׁ דָּבָר מֵאֵת יְהוָה וַיֹּאמֶר יִרְמְיָהוּ יֵשׁ וַיֹּאמֶר בְּיַד מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל תִּנָּתֵֽן׃
Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took out: him and the king asked him secretly in his house, and said, Is there any word from the LORD? And Jeremiah said, There is: for, said he, thou shalt be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon.
וַיֹּאמֶר יִרְמְיָהוּ אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ צִדְקִיָּהוּ מֶה חָטָאתִֽי לְךָ וְלַעֲבָדֶיךָ וְלָעָם הַזֶּה כִּֽי-נְתַתֶּם אוֹתִי אֶל-בֵּית הַכֶּֽלֶא׃
Moreover Jeremiah said unto king Zedekiah, What have I offended against thee, or against thy servants, or against this people, that ye have put me in prison?
(ואיו) וְאַיֵּה נְבִיאֵיכֶם אֲשֶׁר-נִבְּאוּ לָכֶם לֵאמֹר לֹֽא-יָבֹא מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל עֲלֵיכֶם וְעַל הָאָרֶץ הַזֹּֽאת׃
Where are now your prophets which prophesied unto you, saying, The king of Babylon shall not come against you, nor against this land?
וְעַתָּה שְֽׁמַֽע-נָא אֲדֹנִי הַמֶּלֶךְ תִּפָּל-נָא תְחִנָּתִי לְפָנֶיךָ וְאַל-תְּשִׁבֵנִי בֵּית יְהוֹנָתָן הַסֹּפֵר וְלֹא אָמוּת שָֽׁם׃
Therefore hear now, I pray thee, O my lord the king: let my supplication, I pray thee, be accepted before thee; that thou cause me not to return to the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there.
וַיְצַוֶּה הַמֶּלֶךְ צִדְקִיָּהוּ וַיַּפְקִדוּ אֶֽת-יִרְמְיָהוּ בַּחֲצַר הַמַּטָּרָה וְנָתֹן לוֹ כִכַּר-לֶחֶם לַיּוֹם מִחוּץ הָאֹפִים עַד-תֹּם כָּל-הַלֶּחֶם מִן-הָעִיר וַיֵּשֶׁב יִרְמְיָהוּ בַּחֲצַר הַמַּטָּרָֽה׃
Then Zedekiah the king commanded that they should commit Jeremiah into the court of the prison, and that they should give him daily a piece of bread out of the bakers' street, until all the bread in the city were spent. Thus Jeremiah remained in the court of the prison.
כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה הִנָּתֹן תִּנָּתֵן הָעִיר הַזֹּאת בְּיַד חֵיל מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל וּלְכָדָֽהּ׃
Thus saith the LORD, This city shall surely be given into the hand of the king of Babylon's army, which shall take it.
וַיֹּאמְרוּ הַשָּׂרִים אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ יוּמַת נָא אֶת-הָאִישׁ הַזֶּה כִּֽי-עַל-כֵּן הֽוּא-מְרַפֵּא אֶת-יְדֵי אַנְשֵׁי הַמִּלְחָמָה הַֽנִּשְׁאָרִים׀ בָּעִיר הַזֹּאת וְאֵת יְדֵי כָל-הָעָם לְדַבֵּר אֲלֵיהֶם כַּדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה כִּי׀ הָאִישׁ הַזֶּה אֵינֶנּוּ דֹרֵשׁ לְשָׁלוֹם לָעָם הַזֶּה כִּי אִם-לְרָעָֽה׃
Therefore the princes said unto the king, We beseech thee, let this man be put to death: for thus he weakeneth the hands of the men of war that remain in this city, and the hands of all the people, in speaking such words unto them: for this man seeketh not the welfare of this people, but the hurt.
וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ צִדְקִיָּהוּ הִנֵּה-הוּא בְּיֶדְכֶם כִּֽי-אֵין הַמֶּלֶךְ יוּכַל אֶתְכֶם דָּבָֽר׃
Then Zedekiah the king said, Behold, he is in your hand: for the king is not he that can do any thing against you.
וַיִּשְׁמַע עֶֽבֶד-מֶלֶךְ הַכּוּשִׁי אִישׁ סָרִיס וְהוּא בְּבֵית הַמֶּלֶךְ כִּֽי-נָתְנוּ אֶֽת-יִרְמְיָהוּ אֶל-הַבּוֹר וְהַמֶּלֶךְ יוֹשֵׁב בְּשַׁעַר בִּנְיָמִֽן׃
Now when Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, one of the eunuchs which was in the king's house, heard that they had put Jeremiah in the dungeon; the king then sitting in the gate of Benjamin;
וַיֵּצֵא עֶֽבֶד-מֶלֶךְ מִבֵּית הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיְדַבֵּר אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ לֵאמֹֽר׃
Ebed-melech went forth out of the king's house, and spake to the king, saying,
אֲדֹנִי הַמֶּלֶךְ הֵרֵעוּ הָאֲנָשִׁים הָאֵלֶּה אֵת כָּל-אֲשֶׁר עָשׂוּ לְיִרְמְיָהוּ הַנָּבִיא אֵת אֲשֶׁר-הִשְׁלִיכוּ אֶל-הַבּוֹר וַיָּמָת תַּחְתָּיו מִפְּנֵי הָֽרָעָב כִּי אֵין הַלֶּחֶם עוֹד בָּעִֽיר׃
My lord the king, these men have done evil in all that they have done to Jeremiah the prophet, whom they have cast into the dungeon; and he is like to die for hunger in the place where he is: for there is no more bread in the city.
וַיְצַוֶּה הַמֶּלֶךְ אֵת עֶֽבֶד-מֶלֶךְ הַכּוּשִׁי לֵאמֹר קַח בְּיָדְךָ מִזֶּה שְׁלֹשִׁים אֲנָשִׁים וְֽהַעֲלִיתָ אֶֽת-יִרְמְיָהוּ הַנָּבִיא מִן-הַבּוֹר בְּטֶרֶם יָמֽוּת׃
Then the king commanded Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, saying, Take from hence thirty men with thee, and take up Jeremiah the prophet out of the dungeon, before he die.
וַיִּקַּח׀ עֶֽבֶד-מֶלֶךְ אֶת-הָאֲנָשִׁים בְּיָדוֹ וַיָּבֹא בֵית-הַמֶּלֶךְ אֶל-תַּחַת הָאוֹצָר וַיִּקַּח מִשָּׁם בְּלוֹיֵ (הסחבות) סְחָבוֹת וּבְלוֹיֵ מְלָחִים וַיְשַׁלְּחֵם אֶֽל-יִרְמְיָהוּ אֶל-הַבּוֹר בַּחֲבָלִֽים׃
So Ebed-melech took the men with him, and went into the house of the king under the treasury, and took thence old cast clouts and old rotten rags, and let them down by cords into the dungeon to Jeremiah.
וַיִּשְׁלַח הַמֶּלֶךְ צִדְקִיָּהוּ וַיִּקַּח אֶֽת-יִרְמְיָהוּ הַנָּבִיא אֵלָיו אֶל-מָבוֹא הַשְּׁלִישִׁי אֲשֶׁר בְּבֵית יְהוָה וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ אֶֽל-יִרְמְיָהוּ שֹׁאֵל אֲנִי אֹֽתְךָ דָּבָר אַל-תְּכַחֵד מִמֶּנִּי דָּבָֽר׃
Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took Jeremiah the prophet unto him into the third entry that is in the house of the LORD: and the king said unto Jeremiah, I will ask thee a thing; hide nothing from me.
וַיִּשָּׁבַע הַמֶּלֶךְ צִדְקִיָּהוּ אֶֽל-יִרְמְיָהוּ בַּסֵּתֶר לֵאמֹר חַי-יְהוָה (את) אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה-לָנוּ אֶת-הַנֶּפֶשׁ הַזֹּאת אִם-אֲמִיתֶךָ וְאִם-אֶתֶּנְךָ בְּיַד הָאֲנָשִׁים הָאֵלֶּה אֲשֶׁר מְבַקְשִׁים אֶת-נַפְשֶֽׁךָ׃
So Zedekiah the king sware secretly unto Jeremiah, saying, As the LORD liveth, that made us this soul, I will not put thee to death, neither will I give thee into the hand of these men that seek thy life.
וַיֹּאמֶר יִרְמְיָהוּ אֶל-צִדְקִיָּהוּ כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי צְבָאוֹת אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אִם-יָצֹא תֵצֵא אֶל-שָׂרֵי מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל וְחָיְתָה נַפְשֶׁךָ וְהָעִיר הַזֹּאת לֹא תִשָּׂרֵף בָּאֵשׁ וְחָיִתָה אַתָּה וּבֵיתֶֽךָ׃
Then said Jeremiah unto Zedekiah, Thus saith the LORD, the God of hosts, the God of Israel; If thou wilt assuredly go forth unto the king of Babylon's princes, then thy soul shall live, and this city shall not be burned with fire; and thou shalt live, and thine house:
וְאִם לֹֽא-תֵצֵא אֶל-שָׂרֵי מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל וְנִתְּנָה הָעִיר הַזֹּאת בְּיַד הַכַּשְׂדִּים וּשְׂרָפוּהָ בָּאֵשׁ וְאַתָּה לֹֽא-תִמָּלֵט מִיָּדָֽם׃
But if thou wilt not go forth to the king of Babylon's princes, then shall this city be given into the hand of the Chaldeans, and they shall burn it with fire, and thou shalt not escape out of their hand.
וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ צִדְקִיָּהוּ אֶֽל-יִרְמְיָהוּ אֲנִי דֹאֵג אֶת-הַיְּהוּדִים אֲשֶׁר נָֽפְלוּ אֶל-הַכַּשְׂדִּים פֶּֽן-יִתְּנוּ אֹתִי בְּיָדָם וְהִתְעַלְּלוּ-בִֽי׃
And Zedekiah the king said unto Jeremiah, I am afraid of the Jews that are fallen to the Chaldeans, lest they deliver me into their hand, and they mock me.
וְהִנֵּה כָל-הַנָּשִׁים אֲשֶׁר נִשְׁאֲרוּ בְּבֵית מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה מוּצָאוֹת אֶל-שָׂרֵי מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל וְהֵנָּה אֹמְרֹת הִסִּיתוּךָ וְיָכְלוּ לְךָ אַנְשֵׁי שְׁלֹמֶךָ הָטְבְּעוּ בַבֹּץ רַגְלֶךָ נָסֹגוּ אָחֽוֹר׃
And, behold, all the women that are left in the king of Judah's house shall be brought forth to the king of Babylon's princes, and those women shall say, Thy friends have set on, thee and have prevailed against thee: thy feet are sunk in the mire, and they are turned away back.
וְאֶת-כָּל-נָשֶׁיךָ וְאֶת-בָּנֶיךָ מֽוֹצִאִים אֶל-הַכַּשְׂדִּים וְאַתָּה לֹא-תִמָּלֵט מִיָּדָם כִּי בְיַד מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל תִּתָּפֵשׂ וְאֶת-הָעִיר הַזֹּאת תִּשְׂרֹף בָּאֵֽשׁ׃
So they shall bring out all thy wives and thy children to the Chaldeans: and thou shalt not escape out of their hand, but shalt be taken by the hand of the king of Babylon: and thou shalt cause this city to be burned with fire.
וְכִֽי-יִשְׁמְעוּ הַשָּׂרִים כִּֽי-דִבַּרְתִּי אִתָּךְ וּבָאוּ אֵלֶיךָ וְֽאָמְרוּ אֵלֶיךָ הַגִּֽידָה-נָּא לָנוּ מַה-דִּבַּרְתָּ אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ אַל-תְּכַחֵד מִמֶּנּוּ וְלֹא נְמִיתֶךָ וּמַה-דִּבֶּר אֵלֶיךָ הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
But if the princes hear that I have talked with thee, and they come unto thee, and say unto thee, Declare unto us now what thou hast said unto the king, hide it not from us, and we will not put thee to death; also what the king said unto thee:
וְאָמַרְתָּ אֲלֵיהֶם מַפִּיל-אֲנִי תְחִנָּתִי לִפְנֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ לְבִלְתִּי הֲשִׁיבֵנִי בֵּית יְהוֹנָתָן לָמוּת שָֽׁם׃
Then thou shalt say unto them, I presented my supplication before the king, that he would not cause me to return to Jonathan's house, to die there.
וַיָּבֹאוּ כָל-הַשָּׂרִים אֶֽל-יִרְמְיָהוּ וַיִּשְׁאֲלוּ אֹתוֹ וַיַּגֵּד לָהֶם כְּכָל-הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה אֲשֶׁר צִוָּה הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיַּחֲרִשׁוּ מִמֶּנּוּ כִּי לֹֽא-נִשְׁמַע הַדָּבָֽר׃
Then came all the princes unto Jeremiah, and asked him: and he told them according to all these words that the king had commanded. So they left off speaking with him; for the matter was not perceived.
בַּשָּׁנָה הַתְּשִׁעִית לְצִדְקִיָּהוּ מֶלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה בַּחֹדֶשׁ הָעֲשִׂרִי בָּא נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל וְכָל-חֵילוֹ אֶל-יְרוּשָׁלִַם וַיָּצֻרוּ עָלֶֽיהָ׃
In the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, came Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon and all his army against Jerusalem, and they besieged it.
וַיָּבֹאוּ כֹּל שָׂרֵי מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל וַיֵּשְׁבוּ בְּשַׁעַר הַתָּוֶךְ נֵרְגַל שַׂר-אֶצֶר סַֽמְגַּר-נְבוּ שַׂר-סְכִים רַב-סָרִיס נֵרְגַל שַׂר-אֶצֶר רַב-מָג וְכָל-שְׁאֵרִית שָׂרֵי מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶֽל׃
And all the princes of the king of Babylon came in, and sat in the middle gate, even Nergal-sharezer, Samgar-nebo, Sarsechim, Rabsaris, Nergal-sharezer, Rab-mag, with all the residue of the princes of the king of Babylon.
וַיְהִי כַּאֲשֶׁר רָאָם צִדְקִיָּהוּ מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה וְכֹל׀ אַנְשֵׁי הַמִּלְחָמָה וַֽיִּבְרְחוּ וַיֵּצְאוּ לַיְלָה מִן-הָעִיר דֶּרֶךְ גַּן הַמֶּלֶךְ בְּשַׁעַר בֵּין הַחֹמֹתָיִם וַיֵּצֵא דֶּרֶךְ הָעֲרָבָֽה׃
And it came to pass, that when Zedekiah the king of Judah saw them, and all the men of war, then they fled, and went forth out of the city by night, by the way of the king's garden, by the gate betwixt the two walls: and he went out the way of the plain.
וַיִּרְדְּפוּ חֵיל-כַּשְׂדִּים אַחֲרֵיהֶם וַיַּשִּׂגוּ אֶת-צִדְקִיָּהוּ בְּעַֽרְבוֹת יְרֵחוֹ וַיִּקְחוּ אֹתוֹ וַֽיַּעֲלֻהוּ אֶל-נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל רִבְלָתָה בְּאֶרֶץ חֲמָת וַיְדַבֵּר אִתּוֹ מִשְׁפָּטִֽים׃
But the Chaldeans' army pursued after them, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho: and when they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he gave judgment upon him.
וַיִּשְׁחַט מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל אֶת-בְּנֵי צִדְקִיָּהוּ בְּרִבְלָה לְעֵינָיו וְאֵת כָּל-חֹרֵי יְהוּדָה שָׁחַט מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶֽל׃
Then the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah in Riblah before his eyes: also the king of Babylon slew all the nobles of Judah.
וְאֶת-בֵּית הַמֶּלֶךְ וְאֶת-בֵּית הָעָם שָׂרְפוּ הַכַּשְׂדִּים בָּאֵשׁ וְאֶת-חֹמוֹת יְרוּשָׁלִַם נָתָֽצוּ׃
And the Chaldeans burned the king's house, and the houses of the people, with fire, and brake down the walls of Jerusalem.
וַיְצַו נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל עַֽל-יִרְמְיָהוּ בְּיַד נְבוּזַרְאֲדָן רַב-טַבָּחִים לֵאמֹֽר׃
Now Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon gave charge concerning Jeremiah to Nebuzar-adan the captain of the guard, saying,
וַיִּשְׁלַח נְבֽוּזַרְאֲדָן רַב-טַבָּחִים וּנְבֽוּשַׁזְבָּן רַב-סָרִיס וְנֵרְגַל שַׂר-אֶצֶר רַב-מָג וְכֹל רַבֵּי מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶֽל׃
So Nebuzar-adan the captain of the guard sent, and Nebushasban, Rabsaris, and Nergal-sharezer, Rab-mag, and all the king of Babylon's princes;
וְעוֹדֶנּוּ לֹֽא-יָשׁוּב וְשֻׁבָה אֶל-גְּדַלְיָה בֶן-אֲחִיקָם בֶּן-שָׁפָן אֲשֶׁר הִפְקִיד מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל בְּעָרֵי יְהוּדָה וְשֵׁב אִתּוֹ בְּתוֹךְ הָעָם אוֹ אֶל-כָּל-הַיָּשָׁר בְּעֵינֶיךָ לָלֶכֶת לֵךְ וַיִּתֶּן-לוֹ רַב-טַבָּחִים אֲרֻחָה וּמַשְׂאֵת וַֽיְשַׁלְּחֵֽהוּ׃
Now while he was not yet gone back, he said, Go back also to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon hath made governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people: or go wheresoever it seemeth convenient unto thee to go. So the captain of the guard gave him victuals and a reward, and let him go.
וַיִּשְׁמְעוּ כָל-שָׂרֵי הַחֲיָלִים אֲשֶׁר בַּשָּׂדֶה הֵמָּה וְאַנְשֵׁיהֶם כִּֽי-הִפְקִיד מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל אֶת-גְּדַלְיָהוּ בֶן-אֲחִיקָם בָּאָרֶץ וְכִי׀ הִפְקִיד אִתּוֹ אֲנָשִׁים וְנָשִׁים וָטָף וּמִדַּלַּת הָאָרֶץ מֵאֲשֶׁר לֹֽא-הָגְלוּ בָּבֶֽלָה׃
Now when all the captains of the forces which were in the fields, even they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam governor in the land, and had committed unto him men, and women, and children, and of the poor of the land, of them that were not carried away captive to Babylon;
וַיִּשָּׁבַע לָהֶם גְּדַלְיָהוּ בֶן-אֲחִיקָם בֶּן-שָׁפָן וּלְאַנְשֵׁיהֶם לֵאמֹר אַל-תִּֽירְאוּ מֵעֲבוֹד הַכַּשְׂדִּים שְׁבוּ בָאָרֶץ וְעִבְדוּ אֶת-מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל וְיִיטַב לָכֶֽם׃
And Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan sware unto them and to their men, saying, Fear not to serve the Chaldeans: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon, and it shall be well with you.
וְגַם כָּֽל-הַיְּהוּדִים אֲשֶׁר-בְּמוֹאָב׀ וּבִבְנֵֽי-עַמּוֹן וּבֶאֱדוֹם וַאֲשֶׁר בְּכָל-הָֽאֲרָצוֹת שָֽׁמְעוּ כִּֽי-נָתַן מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל שְׁאֵרִית לִֽיהוּדָה וְכִי הִפְקִיד עֲלֵיהֶם אֶת-גְּדַלְיָהוּ בֶּן-אֲחִיקָם בֶּן-שָׁפָֽן׃
Likewise when all the Jews that were in Moab, and among the Ammonites, and in Edom, and that were in all the countries, heard that the king of Babylon had left a remnant of Judah, and that he had set over them Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan;
וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו הֲיָדֹעַ תֵּדַע כִּי בַּעֲלִיס׀ מֶלֶךְ בְּנֵֽי-עַמּוֹן שָׁלַח אֶת-יִשְׁמָעֵאל בֶּן-נְתַנְיָה לְהַכֹּתְךָ נָפֶשׁ וְלֹא-הֶאֱמִין לָהֶם גְּדַלְיָהוּ בֶּן-אֲחִיקָֽם׃
And said unto him, Dost thou certainly know that Baalis the king of the Ammonites hath sent Ishmael the son of Nethaniah to slay thee? But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam believed them not.
וַיְהִי׀ בַּחֹדֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִיעִי בָּא יִשְׁמָעֵאל בֶּן-נְתַנְיָה בֶן-אֱלִישָׁמָע מִזֶּרַע הַמְּלוּכָה וְרַבֵּי הַמֶּלֶךְ וַעֲשָׂרָה אֲנָשִׁים אִתּוֹ אֶל-גְּדַלְיָהוּ בֶן-אֲחִיקָם הַמִּצְפָּתָה וַיֹּאכְלוּ שָׁם לֶחֶם יַחְדָּו בַּמִּצְפָּֽה׃
Now it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah the son of Elishama, of the seed royal, and the princes of the king, even ten men with him, came unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and there they did eat bread together in Mizpah.
וַיָּקָם יִשְׁמָעֵאל בֶּן-נְתַנְיָה וַעֲשֶׂרֶת הָאֲנָשִׁים׀ אֲשֶׁר-הָיוּ אִתּוֹ וַיַּכּוּ אֶת-גְּדַלְיָהוּ בֶן-אֲחִיקָם בֶּן-שָׁפָן בַּחֶרֶב וַיָּמֶת אֹתוֹ אֲשֶׁר-הִפְקִיד מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל בָּאָֽרֶץ׃
Then arose Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and the ten men that were with him, and smote Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan with the sword, and slew him, whom the king of Babylon had made governor over the land.
וְהַבּוֹר אֲשֶׁר הִשְׁלִיךְ שָׁם יִשְׁמָעֵאל אֵת׀ כָּל-פִּגְרֵי הָאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר הִכָּה בְּיַד-גְּדַלְיָהוּ הוּא אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה הַמֶּלֶךְ אָסָא מִפְּנֵי בַּעְשָׁא מֶֽלֶךְ-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֹתוֹ מִלֵּא יִשְׁמָעֵאל בֶּן-נְתַנְיָהוּ חֲלָלִֽים׃
Now the pit wherein Ishmael had cast all the dead bodies of the men, whom he had slain because of Gedaliah, was it which Asa the king had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with them that were slain.
וַיִּשְׁבְּ׀ יִשְׁמָעֵאל אֶת-כָּל-שְׁאֵרִית הָעָם אֲשֶׁר בַּמִּצְפָּה אֶת-בְּנוֹת הַמֶּלֶךְ וְאֶת-כָּל-הָעָם הַנִּשְׁאָרִים בַּמִּצְפָּה אֲשֶׁר הִפְקִיד נְבֽוּזַרְאֲדָן רַב-טַבָּחִים אֶת-גְּדַלְיָהוּ בֶּן-אֲחִיקָם וַיִּשְׁבֵּם יִשְׁמָעֵאל בֶּן-נְתַנְיָה וַיֵּלֶךְ לַעֲבֹר אֶל-בְּנֵי עַמּֽוֹן׃
Then Ishmael carried away captive all the residue of the people that were in Mizpah, even the king's daughters, and all the people that remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzar-adan the captain of the guard had committed to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah carried them away captive, and departed to go over to the Ammonites.
מִפְּנֵי הַכַּשְׂדִּים כִּי יָרְאוּ מִפְּנֵיהֶם כִּֽי-הִכָּה יִשְׁמָעֵאל בֶּן-נְתַנְיָה אֶת-גְּדַלְיָהוּ בֶּן-אֲחִיקָם אֲשֶׁר-הִפְקִיד מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל בָּאָֽרֶץ׃
Because of the Chaldeans: for they were afraid of them, because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had slain Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon made governor in the land.
אַל-תִּֽירְאוּ מִפְּנֵי מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל אֲשֶׁר-אַתֶּם יְרֵאִים מִפָּנָיו אַל-תִּֽירְאוּ מִמֶּנּוּ נְאֻם-יְהוָה כִּֽי-אִתְּכֶם אָנִי לְהוֹשִׁיעַ אֶתְכֶם וּלְהַצִּיל אֶתְכֶם מִיָּדֽוֹ׃
Be not afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom ye are afraid; be not afraid of him, saith the LORD: for I am with you to save you, and to deliver you from his hand.
אֶֽת-הַגְּבָרִים וְאֶת-הַנָּשִׁים וְאֶת-הַטַּף וְאֶת-בְּנוֹת הַמֶּלֶךְ וְאֵת כָּל-הַנֶּפֶשׁ אֲשֶׁר הִנִּיחַ נְבוּזַרְאֲדָן רַב-טַבָּחִים אֶת-גְּדַלְיָהוּ בֶּן-אֲחִיקָם בֶּן-שָׁפָן וְאֵת יִרְמְיָהוּ הַנָּבִיא וְאֶת-בָּרוּךְ בֶּן-נֵרִיָּֽהוּ׃
Even men, and women, and children, and the king's daughters, and every person that Nebuzar-adan the captain of the guard had left with Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch the son of Neriah.
וְאָמַרְתָּ אֲלֵיהֶם כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל הִנְנִי שֹׁלֵחַ וְלָקַחְתִּי אֶת-נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל עַבְדִּי וְשַׂמְתִּי כִסְאוֹ מִמַּעַל לָאֲבָנִים הָאֵלֶּה אֲשֶׁר טָמָנְתִּי וְנָטָה אֶת-(שפרורו) שַׁפְרִירוֹ עֲלֵיהֶֽם׃
And say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will send and take Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will set his throne upon these stones that I have hid; and he shall spread his royal pavilion over them.
הַֽשְׁכַחְתֶּם אֶת-רָעוֹת אֲבוֹתֵיכֶם וְאֶת-רָעוֹת׀ מַלְכֵי יְהוּדָה וְאֵת רָעוֹת נָשָׁיו וְאֵת רָעֹתֵכֶם וְאֵת רָעֹת נְשֵׁיכֶם אֲשֶׁר עָשׂוּ בְּאֶרֶץ יְהוּדָה וּבְחֻצוֹת יְרוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
Have ye forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives, which they have committed in the land of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
כִּי עָשֹׂה נַעֲשֶׂה אֶֽת-כָּל-הַדָּבָר׀ אֲשֶׁר-יָצָא מִפִּינוּ לְקַטֵּר לִמְלֶכֶת הַשָּׁמַיִם וְהַסֵּֽיךְ-לָהּ נְסָכִים כַּאֲשֶׁר עָשִׂינוּ אֲנַחְנוּ וַאֲבֹתֵינוּ מְלָכֵינוּ וְשָׂרֵינוּ בְּעָרֵי יְהוּדָה וּבְחֻצוֹת יְרוּשָׁלִָם וַנִּֽשְׂבַּֽע-לֶחֶם וַנִּֽהְיֶה טוֹבִים וְרָעָה לֹא רָאִֽינוּ׃
But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth, to burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then had we plenty of victuals, and were well, and saw no evil.
הֲלוֹא אֶת-הַקִּטֵּר אֲשֶׁר קִטַּרְתֶּם בְּעָרֵי יְהוּדָה וּבְחֻצוֹת יְרוּשָׁלִַם אַתֶּם וַאֲבֽוֹתֵיכֶם מַלְכֵיכֶם וְשָׂרֵיכֶם וְעַם הָאָרֶץ אֹתָם זָכַר יְהוָה וַֽתַּעֲלֶה עַל-לִבּֽוֹ׃
The incense that ye burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, ye, and your fathers, your kings, and your princes, and the people of the land, did not the LORD remember them, and came it not into his mind?
כֹּה׀ אָמַר יְהוָה הִנְנִי נֹתֵן אֶת-פַּרְעֹה חָפְרַע מֶֽלֶךְ-מִצְרַיִם בְּיַד אֹֽיְבָיו וּבְיַד מְבַקְשֵׁי נַפְשׁוֹ כַּאֲשֶׁר נָתַתִּי אֶת-צִדְקִיָּהוּ מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה בְּיַד נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל אֹיְבוֹ וּמְבַקֵּשׁ נַפְשֽׁוֹ׃
Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will give Pharaoh-hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, his enemy, and that sought his life.
הַדָּבָר אֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר יִרְמְיָהוּ הַנָּבִיא אֶל-בָּרוּךְ בֶּֽן-נֵֽרִיָּה בְּכָתְבוֹ אֶת-הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה עַל-סֵפֶר מִפִּי יִרְמְיָהוּ בַּשָּׁנָה הָֽרְבִעִית לִיהוֹיָקִים בֶּן-יֹאשִׁיָּהוּ מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָה לֵאמֹֽר׃
The word that Jeremiah the prophet spake unto Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book at the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,
לְמִצְרַיִם עַל-חֵיל פַּרְעֹה נְכוֹ מֶלֶךְ מִצְרַיִם אֲשֶׁר-הָיָה עַל-נְהַר-פְּרָת בְּכַרְכְּמִשׁ אֲשֶׁר הִכָּה נְבֽוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל בִּשְׁנַת הָֽרְבִיעִית לִיהוֹיָקִים בֶּן-יֹאשִׁיָּהוּ מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָֽה׃
Against Egypt, against the army of Pharaoh-necho king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates in Carchemish, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah.
הַדָּבָר אֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר יְהוָה אֶֽל-יִרְמְיָהוּ הַנָּבִיא לָבוֹא נְבֽוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל לְהַכּוֹת אֶת-אֶרֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃
The word that the LORD spake to Jeremiah the prophet, how Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon should come and smite the land of Egypt.
קָרְאוּ שָׁם פַּרְעֹה מֶֽלֶךְ-מִצְרַיִם שָׁאוֹן הֶעֱבִיר הַמּוֹעֵֽד׃
They did cry there, Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he hath passed the time appointed.
חַי-אָנִי נְאֻם-הַמֶּלֶךְ יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת שְׁמוֹ כִּי כְּתָבוֹר בֶּֽהָרִים וּכְכַרְמֶל בַּיָּם יָבֽוֹא׃
As I live, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts, Surely as Tabor is among the mountains, and as Carmel by the sea, so shall he come.
אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל הִנְנִי פוֹקֵד אֶל-אָמוֹן מִנֹּא וְעַל-פַּרְעֹה וְעַל-מִצְרַיִם וְעַל-אֱלֹהֶיהָ וְעַל-מְלָכֶיהָ וְעַל-פַּרְעֹה וְעַל הַבֹּטְחִים בּֽוֹ׃
The LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saith; Behold, I will punish the multitude of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, with their gods, and their kings; even Pharaoh, and all them that trust in him:
וּנְתַתִּים בְּיַד מְבַקְשֵׁי נַפְשָׁם וּבְיַד נְבֽוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל וּבְיַד-עֲבָדָיו וְאַחֲרֵי-כֵן תִּשְׁכֹּן כִּֽימֵי-קֶדֶם נְאֻם-יְהוָֽה׃
And I will deliver them into the hand of those that seek their lives, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants: and afterward it shall be inhabited, as in the days of old, saith the LORD.
שֻׁדַּד מוֹאָב וְעָרֶיהָ עָלָה וּמִבְחַר בַּֽחוּרָיו יָרְדוּ לַטָּבַח נְאֻם-הַמֶּלֶךְ יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת שְׁמֽוֹ׃
Moab is spoiled, and gone up out of her cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.
לִבְנֵי עַמּוֹן כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה הֲבָנִים אֵין לְיִשְׂרָאֵל אִם-יוֹרֵשׁ אֵין לוֹ מַדּוּעַ יָרַשׁ מַלְכָּם אֶת-גָּד וְעַמּוֹ בְּעָרָיו יָשָֽׁב׃
Concerning the Ammonites, thus saith the LORD; Hath Israel no sons? hath he no heir? why then doth their king inherit Gad, and his people dwell in his cities?
הֵילִילִי חֶשְׁבּוֹן כִּי שֻׁדְּדָה-עַי צְעַקְנָה בְּנוֹת רַבָּה חֲגֹרְנָה שַׂקִּים סְפֹדְנָה וְהִתְשׁוֹטַטְנָה בַּגְּדֵרוֹת כִּי מַלְכָּם בַּגּוֹלָה יֵלֵךְ כֹּהֲנָיו וְשָׂרָיו יַחְדָּֽיו׃
Howl, O Heshbon, for Ai is spoiled: cry, ye daughters of Rabbah, gird you with sackcloth; lament, and run to and fro by the hedges; for their king shall go into captivity, and his priests and his princes together.
לְקֵדָר׀ וּֽלְמַמְלְכוֹת חָצוֹר אֲשֶׁר הִכָּה (נבוכדראצור) נְבֽוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה קוּמוּ עֲלוּ אֶל-קֵדָר וְשָׁדְדוּ אֶת-בְּנֵי-קֶֽדֶם׃
Concerning Kedar, and concerning the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon shall smite, thus saith the LORD; Arise ye, go up to Kedar, and spoil the men of the east.
נֻסוּ נֻּדוּ מְאֹד הֶעְמִיקוּ לָשֶׁבֶת יֹשְׁבֵי חָצוֹר נְאֻם-יְהוָה כִּֽי-יָעַץ עֲלֵיכֶם נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל עֵצָה וְחָשַׁב (עליהם) עֲלֵיכֶם מַחֲשָׁבָֽה׃
Flee, get you far off, dwell deep, O ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith the LORD; for Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath taken counsel against you, and hath conceived a purpose against you.
אֲשֶׁר הָיָה דְבַר-יְהוָה אֶל-יִרְמְיָהוּ הַנָּבִיא אֶל-עֵילָם בְּרֵאשִׁית מַלְכוּת צִדְקִיָּה מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה לֵאמֹֽר׃
The word of the LORD that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
וְשַׂמְתִּי כִסְאִי בְּעֵילָם וְהַאֲבַדְתִּי מִשָּׁם מֶלֶךְ וְשָׂרִים נְאֻם-יְהוָֽה׃
And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence the king and the princes, saith the LORD.
שֶׂה פְזוּרָה יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲרָיוֹת הִדִּיחוּ הָרִאשׁוֹן אֲכָלוֹ מֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר וְזֶה הָאַחֲרוֹן עִצְּמוֹ נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶֽל׃
Israel is a scattered sheep; the lions have driven him away: first the king of Assyria hath devoured him; and last this Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath broken his bones.
לָכֵן כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל הִנְנִי פֹקֵד אֶל-מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל וְאֶל-אַרְצוֹ כַּאֲשֶׁר פָּקַדְתִּי אֶל-מֶלֶךְ אַשּֽׁוּר׃
Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will punish the king of Babylon and his land, as I have punished the king of Assyria.
הִנֵּה עַם בָּא מִצָּפוֹן וְגוֹי גָּדוֹל וּמְלָכִים רַבִּים יֵעֹרוּ מִיַּרְכְּתֵי-אָֽרֶץ׃
Behold, a people shall come from the north, and a great nation, and many kings shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.
שָׁמַע מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל אֶת-שִׁמְעָם וְרָפוּ יָדָיו צָרָה הֶחֱזִיקַתְהוּ חִיל כַּיּוֹלֵדָֽה׃
The king of Babylon hath heard the report of them, and his hands waxed feeble: anguish took hold of him, and pangs as of a woman in travail.
הָבֵרוּ הַחִצִּים מִלְאוּ הַשְּׁלָטִים הֵעִיר יְהוָה אֶת-רוּחַ מַלְכֵי מָדַי כִּֽי-עַל-בָּבֶל מְזִמָּתוֹ לְהַשְׁחִיתָהּ כִּֽי-נִקְמַת יְהוָה הִיא נִקְמַת הֵיכָלֽוֹ׃
Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.
קַדְּשׁוּ עָלֶיהָ גוֹיִם אֶת-מַלְכֵי מָדַי אֶת-פַּחוֹתֶיהָ וְאֶת-כָּל-סְגָנֶיהָ וְאֵת כָּל-אֶרֶץ מֶמְשַׁלְתּֽוֹ׃
Prepare against her the nations with the kings of the Medes, the captains thereof, and all the rulers thereof, and all the land of his dominion.
רָץ לִקְרַאת-רָץ יָרוּץ וּמַגִּיד לִקְרַאת מַגִּיד לְהַגִּיד לְמֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל כִּֽי-נִלְכְּדָה עִירוֹ מִקָּצֶֽה׃
One post shall run to meet another, and one messenger to meet another, to shew the king of Babylon that his city is taken at one end,
אֲכָלַנִו הֲמָמַנִו נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל הִצִּיגַנִו כְּלִי רִיק בְּלָעַנִו כַּתַּנִּין מִלָּא כְרֵשׂוֹ מֵֽעֲדָנָי הֱדִיחָֽנִו׃
Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon hath devoured me, he hath crushed me, he hath made me an empty vessel, he hath swallowed me up like a dragon, he hath filled his belly with my delicates, he hath cast me out.
וְהִשְׁכַּרְתִּי שָׂרֶיהָ וַחֲכָמֶיהָ פַּחוֹתֶיהָ וּסְגָנֶיהָ וְגִבּוֹרֶיהָ וְיָשְׁנוּ שְׁנַת-עוֹלָם וְלֹא יָקִיצוּ נְאֻם-הַמֶּלֶךְ יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת שְׁמֽוֹ׃
And I will make drunk her princes, and her wise men, her captains, and her rulers, and her mighty men: and they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the King, whose name is the LORD of hosts.
הַדָּבָר אֲשֶׁר-צִוָּה׀ יִרְמְיָהוּ הַנָּבִיא אֶת-שְׂרָיָה בֶן-נֵרִיָּה בֶּן-מַחְסֵיָה בְּלֶכְתּוֹ אֶת-צִדְקִיָּהוּ מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה בָּבֶל בִּשְׁנַת הָרְבִעִית לְמָלְכוֹ וּשְׂרָיָה שַׂר מְנוּחָֽה׃
The word which Jeremiah the prophet commanded Seraiah the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, when he went with Zedekiah the king of Judah into Babylon in the fourth year of his reign. And this Seraiah was a quiet prince.
כִּי׀ עַל-אַף יְהוָה הָֽיְתָה בִּירוּשָׁלִַם וִֽיהוּדָה עַד-הִשְׁלִיכוֹ אוֹתָם מֵעַל פָּנָיו וַיִּמְרֹד צִדְקִיָּהוּ בְּמֶלֶךְ בָּבֶֽל׃
For through the anger of the LORD it came to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, till he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
וַיְהִי בַשָּׁנָה הַתְּשִׁעִית לְמָלְכוֹ בַּחֹדֶשׁ הָעֲשִׂירִי בֶּעָשׂוֹר לַחֹדֶשׁ בָּא נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל הוּא וְכָל-חֵילוֹ עַל-יְרוּשָׁלִַם וַֽיַּחֲנוּ עָלֶיהָ וַיִּבְנוּ עָלֶיהָ דָּיֵק סָבִֽיב׃
And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, and pitched against it, and built forts against it round about.
וַתָּבֹא הָעִיר בַּמָּצוֹר עַד עַשְׁתֵּי עֶשְׂרֵה שָׁנָה לַמֶּלֶךְ צִדְקִיָּֽהוּ׃
So the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
וַתִּבָּקַע הָעִיר וְכָל-אַנְשֵׁי הַמִּלְחָמָה יִבְרְחוּ וַיֵּצְאוּ מֵהָעִיר לַיְלָה דֶּרֶךְ שַׁעַר בֵּין-הַחֹמֹתַיִם אֲשֶׁר עַל-גַּן הַמֶּלֶךְ וְכַשְׂדִּים עַל-הָעִיר סָבִיב וַיֵּלְכוּ דֶּרֶךְ הָעֲרָבָֽה׃
Then the city was broken up, and all the men of war fled, and went forth out of the city by night by the way of the gate between the two walls, which was by the king's garden; (now the Chaldeans were by the city round about:) and they went by the way of the plain.
וַיִּרְדְּפוּ חֵיל-כַּשְׂדִּים אַחֲרֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיַּשִּׂיגוּ אֶת-צִדְקִיָּהוּ בְּעַֽרְבֹת יְרֵחוֹ וְכָל-חֵילוֹ נָפֹצוּ מֵעָלָֽיו׃
But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and all his army was scattered from him.
וַֽיִּתְפְּשׂוּ אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיַּעֲלוּ אֹתוֹ אֶל-מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל רִבְלָתָה בְּאֶרֶץ חֲמָת וַיְדַבֵּר אִתּוֹ מִשְׁפָּטִֽים׃
Then they took the king, and carried him up unto the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Hamath; where he gave judgment upon him.
וַיִּשְׁחַט מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל אֶת-בְּנֵי צִדְקִיָּהוּ לְעֵינָיו וְגַם אֶת-כָּל-שָׂרֵי יְהוּדָה שָׁחַט בְּרִבְלָֽתָה׃
And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes: he slew also all the princes of Judah in Riblah.
וְאֶת-עֵינֵי צִדְקִיָּהוּ עִוֵּר וַיַּאַסְרֵהוּ בַֽנְחֻשְׁתַּיִם וַיְבִאֵהוּ מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל בָּבֶלָה וַיִּתְּנֵהוּ (בבית) בֵֽית-הַפְּקֻדֹּת עַד-יוֹם מוֹתֽוֹ׃
Then he put out the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon bound him in chains, and carried him to Babylon, and put him in prison till the day of his death.
וּבַחֹדֶשׁ הַֽחֲמִישִׁי בֶּעָשׂוֹר לַחֹדֶשׁ הִיא שְׁנַת תְּשַֽׁע-עֶשְׂרֵה שָׁנָה לַמֶּלֶךְ נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל בָּא נְבֽוּזַרְאֲדָן רַב-טַבָּחִים עָמַד לִפְנֵי מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל בִּירוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzar-adan, captain of the guard, which served the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem,
וַיִּשְׂרֹף אֶת-בֵּית-יְהוָה וְאֶת-בֵּית הַמֶּלֶךְ וְאֵת כָּל-בָּתֵּי יְרוּשָׁלִַם וְאֶת-כָּל-בֵּית הַגָּדוֹל שָׂרַף בָּאֵֽשׁ׃
And burned the house of the LORD, and the king's house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, and all the houses of the great men, burned he with fire:
וּמִדַּלּוֹת הָעָם וְֽאֶת-יֶתֶר הָעָם׀ הַנִּשְׁאָרִים בָּעִיר וְאֶת-הַנֹּֽפְלִים אֲשֶׁר נָֽפְלוּ אֶל-מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל וְאֵת יֶתֶר הָֽאָמוֹן הֶגְלָה נְבוּזַרְאֲדָן רַב-טַבָּחִֽים׃
Then Nebuzar-adan the captain of the guard carried away captive certain of the poor of the people, and the residue of the people that remained in the city, and those that fell away, that fell to the king of Babylon, and the rest of the multitude.
הָעַמּוּדִים׀ שְׁנַיִם הַיָּם אֶחָד וְהַבָּקָר שְׁנֵים-עָשָׂר נְחֹשֶׁת אֲשֶׁר-תַּחַת הַמְּכֹנוֹת אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה הַמֶּלֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹה לְבֵית יְהוָה לֹא-הָיָה מִשְׁקָל לִנְחֻשְׁתָּם כָּל-הַכֵּלִים הָאֵֽלֶּה׃
The two pillars, one sea, and twelve brasen bulls that were under the bases, which king Solomon had made in the house of the LORD: the brass of all these vessels was without weight.
וּמִן-הָעִיר לָקַח סָרִיס אֶחָד אֲֽשֶׁר-הָיָה פָקִיד׀ עַל-אַנְשֵׁי הַמִּלְחָמָה וְשִׁבְעָה אֲנָשִׁים מֵרֹאֵי פְנֵי-הַמֶּלֶךְ אֲשֶׁר נִמְצְאוּ בָעִיר וְאֵת סֹפֵר שַׂר הַצָּבָא הַמַּצְבִּא אֶת-עַם הָאָרֶץ וְשִׁשִּׁים אִישׁ מֵעַם הָאָרֶץ הַֽנִּמְצְאִים בְּתוֹךְ הָעִֽיר׃
He took also out of the city an eunuch, which had the charge of the men of war; and seven men of them that were near the king's person, which were found in the city; and the principal scribe of the host, who mustered the people of the land; and threescore men of the people of the land, that were found in the midst of the city.
וַיִּקַּח אוֹתָם נְבוּזַרְאֲדָן רַב-טַבָּחִים וַיֹּלֶךְ אוֹתָם אֶל-מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל רִבְלָֽתָה׃
So Nebuzar-adan the captain of the guard took them, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah.
וַיַּכֶּה אוֹתָם מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל וַיְמִתֵם בְּרִבְלָה בְּאֶרֶץ חֲמָת וַיִּגֶל יְהוּדָה מֵעַל אַדְמָתֽוֹ׃
And the king of Babylon smote them, and put them to death in Riblah in the land of Hamath. Thus Judah was carried away captive out of his own land.
וַיְהִי בִשְׁלֹשִׁים וָשֶׁבַע שָׁנָה לְגָלוּת יְהוֹיָכִן מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה בִּשְׁנֵים עָשָׂר חֹדֶשׁ בְּעֶשְׂרִים וַחֲמִשָּׁה לַחֹדֶשׁ נָשָׂא אֱוִיל מְרֹדַךְ מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל בִּשְׁנַת מַלְכֻתוֹ אֶת-רֹאשׁ יְהוֹיָכִין מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה וַיֹּצֵא אֹתוֹ מִבֵּית (הכליא) הַכְּלֽוּא׃
And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the five and twentieth day of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon in the first year of his reign lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought him forth out of prison,
וַיְדַבֵּר אִתּוֹ טֹבוֹת וַיִּתֵּן אֶת-כִּסְאוֹ מִמַּעַל לְכִסֵּא (מלכים) הַמְּלָכִים אֲשֶׁר אִתּוֹ בְּבָבֶֽל׃
And spake kindly unto him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon,
וַאֲרֻחָתוֹ אֲרֻחַת תָּמִיד נִתְּנָה-לּוֹ מֵאֵת מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל דְּבַר-יוֹם בְּיוֹמוֹ עַד-יוֹם מוֹתוֹ כֹּל יְמֵי חַיָּֽיו׃
And for his diet, there was a continual diet given him of the king of Babylon, every day a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life.
וַיַּחְמֹס כַּגַּן שֻׂכּוֹ שִׁחֵת מוֹעֲדוֹ שִׁכַּח יְהוָה׀ בְּצִיּוֹן מוֹעֵד וְשַׁבָּת וַיִּנְאַץ בְּזַֽעַם-אַפּוֹ מֶלֶךְ וְכֹהֵֽן׃
And he hath violently taken away his tabernacle, as if it were of a garden: he hath destroyed his places of the assembly: the LORD hath caused the solemn feasts and sabbaths to be forgotten in Zion, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger the king and the priest.
