carried to Bavel:
4 And I will bring again to this place Yekonyahu the son
of Yahuyakim melech of Yahudah, with all the captives
of Yahudah, that went into Bavel, says vuvh: for I will
break the yoke of the melech of Bavel.
5 Then the navi Yirmeyahu said to the navi Hananyah in
the presence of the Kohanim, and in the presence of all
the people that stood in the Bayit of vuvh,
6 Even the navi Yirmeyahu said, Amein: vuvh do so:
vuvh perform Your words which you have prophesied, to
bring again the vessels of vuvh's Bayit, and all that is
carried away into exile, from Bavel into this place.
7 Nevertheless listen now to this word that I speak in your
hearing, and in the hearing of all the people;
8 The neviim that have been before me and before you
from old prophesied both against many countries, and
against great malchutim, of war, and of evil, and of
pestilence.
9 The navi who prophesies of shalom, when the word of
that navi shall come to pass, then shall the navi be known,
that vuvh has truly sent him.
10 Then Hananyah the navi took the yoke from off the
navi Yirmeyahu's neck, and broke it.
11 And Hananyah spoke in the presence of all the people,
saying, This says vuvh; Even so will I break the yoke of
Nevuchadnetzar melech of Bavel from the neck of all
nations within the space of two full years. And the navi
Yirmeyahu went his way.
12 Then the word of vuvh came to Yirmeyahu the navi,
after that Hananyah the navi had broken the yoke from off
the neck of the navi Yirmeyahu, saying,
13 Go and tell Hananyah, saying, This says vuvh; You
have broken the yokes of wood; but you shall make for
them yokes of iron.
14 For this says vuvh tzevaoth, the Elohim of Yisrael; I
have put a yoke of iron upon the neck of all these nations,
that they may serve Nevuchadnetzar melech of Bavel; and
they shall serve him: and I have given him the beasts of
the field also.
15 Then said the navi Yirmeyahu to Hananyah the navi,
Listen now, Hananyah; vuvh has not sent you; but you
make this people trust in a lie.
16 Therefore this says vuvh; See, I will cast you from off
the face of the earth: this year you shall die, because you
have taught rebellion against vuvh.
17 So Hananyah the navi died the same year in the
seventh month.
29
Now these are the words of the letter that Yirmeyahu
the navi sent from Yahrushalayim to the rest of the
zechanim who were carried away captive, and to the
Kohanim, and to the neviim, and to all the people whom
Nevuchadnetzar had carried away in exile from
Yahrushalayim to Bavel;
2 (After that Yekonyahu the melech, and the malka, and
the officers, the leaders of Yahudah and Yahrushalayim,
and the carpenters, and the smiths, had departed from
Yahrushalayim;)
3 By the hand of Elasah the son of Shaphan, and
Gemaryah the son of Hilkiyahu, (whom Tzidkiyahu
melech of Yahudah sent to Bavel to Nevuchadnetzar
melech of Bavel) saying,
4 This says vuvh tzevaoth, the Elohim of Yisrael, to all
YIRMEYAHU - JEREMIAH
- 323 -
that are carried away captives, whom I have caused to be
carried away from Yahrushalayim to Bavel;
5 Build houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens,
and eat the fruit of them;
6 Take wives, and beget sons and daughters; and take
wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands,
that they may bear sons and daughters; that you may be
increased there, 2136 and not diminished.
7 And seek the shalom of the city where I have caused you
to be exiled, and make tefillah to vuvh for it: for in the
shalom of it shall you have shalom.
8 For this says vuvh tzevaoth, the Elohim of Yisrael; Let
not your neviim and your diviners, that are in the midst of
you, deceive you, neither listen to your dreams which you
are dreaming.
9 For they prophesy falsely to you in My Name: I have
not sent them, says vuvh.
10 For this says vuvh, After seventy years are
accomplished at Bavel I will visit you, and perform My
tov word toward you, in causing you to shuv to this place.
11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says
vuvh, thoughts of shalom, and not of evil, to give you tov
tikvah in the end. 2137
12 Then shall you call upon Me, and you shall go and
make tefillah to Me, and I will listen to you.
13 And you shall seek Me, and find Me, when you shall
search for Me with all your lev.
14 And I will be found by you, says vuvh: and I will turn
away your exile, and I will gather you from all the
nations, and from all the places where I have driven you,
says vuvh; and I will bring you back again into the place
from where I caused you to go into exile.
15 Because you have said, vuvh has raised up neviim for
us in Bavel;
16 Know this says vuvh of the melech that sits upon the
kesay of Dawid, and of all the people that dwell in this
city, and of your brothers that have not gone out with you
into exile;
17 This says vuvh tzevaoth; See, I will send upon them the
sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them
like vile figs, that cannot be eaten, they are so bad.
18 And I will persecute them with the sword, with the
famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to
be removed to all the malchutim of the earth, to be a
curse, and astonishment, and a hissing, and a reproach,
among all the gentiles where I have driven them:
19 Because they have not listened to My words, says
vuvh, which I sent to them by My avadim the neviim,
rising up early and sending them; but you would not
listen, says vuvh.
20 Hear therefore the word of vuvh, all you of the exile,
whom I have sent from Yahrushalayim to Bavel:
21 This says vuvh tzevaoth, the Elohim of Yisrael, about
Achav the son of Kolayah,
and Tzidkiyahu the son of Maaseyah, who prophesy a lie
to you in My Name; See, I will deliver them into the hand
of Nevuchadnetzar melech of Bavel; and he shall kill
them before your eyes;
22 And because of them all the exiles of Yahudah who are
in Bavel shall use them as a curse, saying, vuvh make you
like Tzidkiyahu and like Achav, whom the melech of Bavel
roasted in the fire;
23 Because they have committed evil in Yisrael, and have
