1 | In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, came this word to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying, | Jer 27:3 Jer 27:12 Jer 27:19 Jer 27:20 Jer 26:1 Jer 28:1 |
2 | Thus says Yahweh to me: Make you bonds and bars, and put them on your neck; | Am 7:1 Am 7:4 |
3 | and send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the children of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Sidon, by the hand of the messengers who come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah; | Jer 25:19-26 Jer 47:1-49 Ezk 25:1-28 Ezk 29:18 Am 1:9-15 Am 2:1-3 |
4 | and give them a charge to their masters, saying, Thus says Yahweh of Hosts, the God of Israel, Thus shall you tell your masters: | Jer 10:10 Jer 10:16 Jer 25:27 Jer 51:19 Ex 5:1 |
5 | I have made the earth, the men and the animals that are on the surface of the earth, by my great power and by my outstretched arm; and I give it to whom it seems right to me. | Jer 10:11 Jer 10:12 Jer 32:17 Jer 51:15 Gn 9:6 Ex 20:11 Jb 26:5-14 Jb 38:4-41 Ps 102:25 Ps 136:5-9 Ps 146:5 Ps 146:6 Ps 148:2-5 Isa 40:21-26 Isa 42:5 Isa 44:24 Isa 45:12 Isa 48:13 Isa 51:13 Jn 1:1-3 Ac 14:15 Ac 17:24 Col 1:16 Heb 1:2 Heb 1:10 Heb 1:11 Rev 4:11 |
6 | Now have I given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant; and the animals of the field also have I given him to serve him. | Jer 28:14 Dn 2:37 Dn 2:38 Dn 5:18 Dn 5:19 |
7 | All the nations shall serve him, and his son, and his son`s son, until the time of his own land come: and then many nations and great kings shall make him their bondservant. | Jer 25:11-14 Jer 50:9 Jer 50:10 Jer 52:31 2Ch 36:20 2Ch 36:21 |
8 | It shall happen, that the nation and the kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, that nation will I punish, says Yahweh, with the sword, and with the famine, and with the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand. | Jer 25:28 Jer 25:29 Jer 38:17-19 Jer 40:9 Jer 42:10-18 Jer 52:3-6 Ezk 17:19-21 |
9 | But as for you, don`t you listen to your prophets, nor to your diviners, nor to your dreams, nor to your soothsayers, nor to your sorcerers, who speak to you, saying, You shall not serve the king of Babylon: | Jer 27:14-16 Jer 14:14 Jer 23:16 Jer 23:25 Jer 23:32 Jer 29:8 Ex 7:11 Dt 18:10-12 Dt 18:14-12 Jsh 13:22 Isa 8:19 Mic 3:7 Zc 10:2 Mal 3:5 Ac 8:11 Rev 9:21 Rev 18:23 Rev 21:8 Rev 22:15 |
10 | for they prophesy a lie to you, to remove you far from your land, and that I should drive you out, and you should perish. | Jer 27:14 Jer 28:16 Ezk 14:9-11 |
11 | But the nation that shall bring their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him, that [nation] will I let remain in their own land, says Yahweh; and they shall till it, and dwell therein. | Jer 27:2 Jer 27:8 Jer 27:12 |
12 | I spoke to Zedekiah king of Judah according to all these words, saying, Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and live. | Jer 27:3 Jer 28:1 Jer 38:17 2Ch 36:11-13 Pr 1:33 Ezk 17:11-21 |
13 | Why will you die, you and your people, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, as Yahweh has spoken concerning the nation that will not serve the king of Babylon? | Jer 38:20 Pr 8:36 Ezk 18:24 Ezk 18:31 Ezk 33:11 |
14 | Don`t listen to the words of the prophets who speak to you, saying, You shall not serve the king of Babylon; for they prophesy a lie to you. | Jer 27:9 Isa 28:10-13 2Co 11:13-15 Php 3:2 |
15 | For I have not sent them, says Yahweh, but they prophesy falsely in my name; that I may drive you out, and that you may perish, you, and the prophets who prophesy to you. | Jer 27:10 2Ch 18:17-22 2Ch 25:16 Ezk 14:3-10 Mt 24:24 2Th 2:9-12 2Ti 2:17-19 2Ti 4:3 2Ti 4:4 Rev 13:7 Rev 13:8 Rev 13:12-14 |
16 | Also I spoke to the priests and to all this people, saying, Thus says Yahweh: Don`t listen to the words of your prophets who prophesy to you, saying, Behold, the vessels of Yahweh`s house shall now shortly be brought again from Babylon; for they prophesy a lie to you. | Jer 28:3 2Ki 24:13 2Ch 36:7-10 Dn 1:2 |
17 | Don`t listen to them; serve the king of Babylon, and live: why should this city become a desolation? | Jer 27:11 Jer 27:12 |
18 | But if they be prophets, and if the word of Yahweh be with them, let them now make intercession to Yahweh of Hosts, that the vessels which are left in the house of Yahweh, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem, don`t go to Babylon. | 1Ki 18:24 1Ki 18:26 |
19 | For thus says Yahweh of Hosts concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the residue of the vessels that are left in this city, | Jer 52:17-23 1Ki 7:15-22 2Ki 25:13 2Ki 25:17 2Ch 4:2-16 |
20 | which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon didn`t take, when he carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, from Jerusalem to Babylon, and all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem; | Jer 22:28 |
21 | yes, thus says Yahweh of Hosts, the God of Israel, concerning the vessels that are left in the house of Yahweh, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem: |
22 | They shall be carried to Babylon, and there shall they be, until the day that I visit them, says Yahweh; then will I bring them up, and restore them to this place. | Jer 29:10 Jer 34:5 Jer 52:17-21 2Ki 24:13-17 2Ch 36:17 2Ch 36:18 Dn 5:1-4 Dn 5:23-4 |
