¶2; The first Chapter.
1 The stocke of Ieremie, and in what tyme he prophecied, 6 He excuseth him
selfe and woulde refuse the office of a prophete, because he is young and
vnexpert, 8 He is taught of the Lorde and becommeth bolde, 11 God openeth
vnto hym, that the destruction of the Iewes by the Babylonians
is at hande, 17 Ieremie is commaunded to speake the worde of God vnto
the Iewes without feare.
A
1 These are the sermons
of Ieremie the sonne
of Helkiah the priest,
one of them that dwelt
at note Anathoth in the
lande of Beniamin,
2 When the Lorde had
first spoken with hym in the tyme of
Iosiah the sonne of Amon kyng of
Iuda, in the .xiij. yere of his raigne:
3 And so duryng vnto the tyme of Iehoakim
the sonne of Iosiah king of Iuda,
note and vntyll the .xi. yere of Zedekiah the
sonne of Iosiah kyng of Iuda were
ended, when Hierusalem was taken,
euen in the fifth moneth.

4 The worde of the Lorde spake thus
vnto me.
5 noteBefore I fashioned thee in thy mothers
wombe, I dyd knowe thee: and
or euer thou wast borne, I sanctified
thee, and ordeyned thee to be a prophete
vnto the people.
6 Then sayde I: note O Lorde God, I can
not speake, for I am yet but young.
B
7 And the Lorde aunswered me thus:
Say not so, I am to young: note for thou
shalt go to all that I shall sende thee
vnto, note and whatsoeuer I commaunde
thee, that shalt thou speake.
8 Be not afrayde of their faces: for I
am with thee to deliuer thee, saith the
Lorde.
9 noteAnd with that the Lorde stretched
out his hande and touched my mouth:
and the same Lorde sayde vnto me, Beholde,
I put my wordes in thy mouth.
10 And beholde, this day do I set thee
ouer the people and kyngdomes, that
thou mayest roote out, breake of, destroy,
and make waste, and that thou
mayest builde vp and plant.
11 After this the Lorde spake vnto me,
saying: Ieremie, what seest thou? And
I sayd, note I see a rod of an Almond tree.
12 Then sayde the Lorde vnto me: thou
hast seene ryght, for I wyll make haste
speedyly vpon my worde to performe it.
13 It happened afterwarde that the
Lorde spake to me agayne, and sayde:
what seest thou? and I sayde: I do see
a seethyng note pot, lokyng from out of the
north.
C
14 Then sayde the Lorde vnto me: note Out
of the north shall come a plague vpon
all the dwellers of the lande.
15 For lo, note I wyll call all the kinredes of
the kingdomes of the north, saith the
Lorde: and they shall come, and euery
one shall set his seate in the gates of Hierusalem,
and in all their walles rounde
about, and in all cities of Iuda.
16 And through them shall I declare
my iudgement, vp&obar; all the wickednesse
of those men that haue forsaken me,
that haue burnt incense vnto straunge
gods, and worshipped the workes of
their owne handes.
17 noteAnd therfore girde vp thy loynes,
arise, and tell them all that I geue thee
in commaundement: Feare them not,
lest I destroy thee before them.
18 noteFor beholde, this day do I make thee
a strong fensed towne, an iron pyller,
and a brasen wall, agaynst the whole
lande, agaynst the kinges and mightie
men of Iuda, agaynst the priestes and
people of the lande.
19 They shall fight agaynst thee, but
they shall not be able to ouercome thee:
for I am with thee to deliuer thee, saith
the Lorde.
