out, and He will say, ‘Here I am.’ If you remove the yoke from your midst, the pointing of the finger and

out of the sea with the
shepherd of his flock? where is he that put his holy Spirit within him?

accursed.

out will be
torn to pieces. For their
rebellious acts are many, and their unfaithful deeds are numerous.

deceive every one his neighbour, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies, and
weary themselves to commit iniquity.

out committing iniquity.
Their tongue is as an
arrow shot
out; it speaketh
deceit: one speaketh

Their tongues are deadly arrows; they speak
deception. With his mouth a man speaks peace to his
neighbor, but in his heart he sets a
trap for him.

chisel by the hands of a
craftsman.

devoured Jacob; they have consumed him and finished him off; they have
devastated his homeland.

listening when they call
out to Me in their time of
disaster.

lewdness with many, and the holy flesh is passed from thee? when thou doest evil, then thou rejoicest.

out so many evil schemes? Can consecrated meat
avert your
doom, so that you can
rejoice?
But thou, O LORD, knowest me: thou hast seen me, and tried mine heart toward thee: pull them out like sheep for the slaughter, and prepare them for the day of slaughter.

carnage.

footmen, and they have
wearied thee, then how canst thou
contend with horses? and if in the land of peace, wherein thou trustedst, they
wearied thee, then how
wilt thou do in the swelling of Jordan?

out, how can you
compete with horses? If you
stumble in a peaceful land, how will you do in the thickets of the Jordan?

inherit; Behold, I will
pluck them

bequeathed to My people Israel, I am about to
uproot them from their land, and I will
uproot the house of Judah from among them.

heritage, and every man to his land.

compassion on them and return each one to his inheritance and to his land.

prophesy shall be cast
out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword; and they shall have none to
bury them, them, their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters: for I will pour their wickedness upon them.
And the people to whom they
prophesy will be thrown into the streets of Jerusalem because of famine and sword. There will be no one to
bury them or their wives, their sons or their daughters. I will pour
out their own evil upon them.
If I go forth into the field, then behold the slain with the sword! and if I enter into the city, then behold them that are sick with famine!
yea, both the prophet and the priest go about into a land that they know not.
If I go
out to the country, I see those slain by the sword; if I enter the city, I see those
ravaged by famine! For both prophet and priest travel to a land they do not know.’”

bridegroom, and the voice of the
bride.

bride and
bridegroom.

But, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands
whither he had driven them: and I will bring them again into their land that I gave unto their fathers.

hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and
out of the holes of the rocks.

fishermen, declares the LORD, and they will catch them. After that I will send for many hunters, and they will
hunt them down on every mountain and hill, even from the clefts of the rocks.

out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of
drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
He is like a tree planted by the waters that sends
out its roots toward the stream. It does not fear when the heat comes, and its leaves are always green. It does not
worry in a year of
drought, nor does it cease to produce fruit.
As for me, I have not
hastened from being a
pastor to follow thee: neither have I desired the
woeful day; thou knowest: that which came
out of my lips was right before thee.
But I have not run away from being Your
shepherd; I have not desired the day of
despair. You know that the
utterance of my lips was spoken in Your presence.
Thus said the LORD unto me; Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, whereby the kings of Judah come in, and by the which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem;
This is what the LORD said to me: “Go and stand at the gate of the people, through which the kings of Judah go in and out; and stand at all the other gates of Jerusalem.
Neither carry forth a burden
out of your houses on the sabbath day, neither do ye any work, but
hallow ye the sabbath day, as I commanded your fathers.
You must not carry a load out of your houses or do any work on the Sabbath day, but you must keep the Sabbath day holy, just as I commanded your forefathers.
Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, and pour
out their blood by the force of the sword; and let their wives be
bereaved of their children, and be widows; and let their men be put to death; let their young men be slain by the sword in battle.
Therefore, hand their children over to famine; pour out the power of the sword upon them. Let their wives become childless and widowed; let their husbands be slain by disease, their young men struck down by the sword in battle.
Yet, LORD, thou knowest all their counsel against me to
slay me:
forgive not their iniquity, neither
blot out their sin from thy sight, but let them be overthrown before thee; deal thus with them in the time of thine anger.
But You, O LORD, know all their deadly plots against me. Do not
wipe out their guilt or
blot out their sin from Your sight. Let them be overthrown before You; deal with them in the time of Your anger.
And go forth unto the valley of the son of
Hinnom, which is by the entry of the east gate, and
proclaim there the words that I shall tell thee,
and go
out to the Valley of Ben-
hinnom near the entrance of the
Potsherd Gate.
Proclaim there the words I speak to you,
And the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, shall be
defiled as the place of
Tophet, because of all the houses upon whose roofs they have burned incense unto all the host of heaven, and have poured
out drink offerings unto other gods.
The houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah will be
defiled like that place, Topheth—all the houses on whose rooftops they burned incense to all the host of heaven and poured
out drink offerings to other gods.”
And it came to pass on the
morrow, that Pashur brought forth Jeremiah
out of the stocks. Then said Jeremiah unto him, The LORD hath not called thy name Pashur, but Magor-missabib.
The next day, when Pashhur released Jeremiah from the stocks, Jeremiah said to him, “The LORD does not call you Pashhur, but Magor-missabib.
For since I spake, I
cried out, I
cried violence and
spoil; because the word of the LORD was made a reproach unto me, and a
derision, daily.
For whenever I speak, I cry
out; I
proclaim violence and destruction. For the word of the LORD has become to me a reproach and
derision all day long.
