Chap. XX.
note
Phassur a priest beateth the prophet, and putteth him in the stockes. He stil
prophecieth their captiuitie in Babylon. 7. Lamenteth that he and his
preaching is derided: 11. confideth in God: 14. and vttereth his afflicted
minde.
1 And Phassur the sonne of Emmer priest, who was appointed
prince in the house of our Lord, heard Ieremie
prophecying these wordes.
2 And Phassur stroke Ieremie the
prophet, and put him into the stockes, that was in the vpper
gate of Beniamin, in the house of our Lord.
3 And when it
was light on the morow, Phassur brought forth Ieremie out
of the stockes. And Ieremie said to him: Our Lord hath called
thy name not note Phassur, but feare on euerie side.
4 Because thus
saith our Lord: Behold I wil geue thee into feare, thee and al
thy freindes: and they shal fal by the sword of their enemies,
and thine eies shal see, and I wil geue al Iuda into the hand of
the king of Babylon: & he shal transport them into Babylon,
and shal strike them with the sword.
5 And I wil geue al the
substance of this citie, and al the labour therof, & al the price,
and al the treasures of the kings of Iuda wil I geue into the
hand of their enemies: and they shal spoile them, and take
them away, and carie them into Babylon.
6 But thou Phassur,
and al the inhabiters of thy house shal goe into captiuitie, and
thou shalt come into Babylon, and there thou shalt die, and
there shalt be buried, thou and al thy freindes, to whom thou
hast prophecied a lie.
7 Thou hast seduced me รด Lord, and I
am seduced: thou wast stronger then I, and hast preuailed: I
am made a derision al the day, al doe scorne me.
8 Because
now long agoe I speake, crying out iniquitie, and I often
proclayme wasting: and the word of our Lord is made a reproch
to me, and a derision al the day.
9 And I said: I wil
nor remember him, nor speake anie more in his name: and
there was made in my hart as a fire boyling, and shut vp in my
bones: and I fainted, not sustayning to beare it.
10 For I heard
the contumelies of manie, & terrour on euerie side: persecure
-- --
ye, and let vs persecute him: of al the men, that were my
peaceables, and garding my side: if by anie meanes he may be
deceiued, and we preuaile against him, & be reuenged on him.
11 But our Lord is with me as a strong warrier: therefore they
that persecute me shal fal, and shal be weake: they shal be
confounded exceedingly, because they haue not vnderstood
the euerlasting reproch, which neuer shal be cleane put away.
12 And thou Lord of hostes, prouer of the iust, which seest
the reynes and the hart: let me see I besech thee thy reuenge
of them: for to thee I haue reueled my cause.
13 Sing ye to
our Lord, prayse our Lord: because he hath deliuered the
soule of the poore out of the hand of the wicked.
14 noteCursed
be the day, wherein I was borne: the day in which my mother
bare me, be it not blessed.
15 Cursed be the man that told
my father, saying: There is a man child borne to thee: and as it
were with ioy he reioyced him.
16 Let that man be as the cities
are, which our Lord hath subuerted, and it hath not repented
him: let him heare crying in the morning, and howling at
noone time.
17 Who slew me not from the wombe, that my
mother might be made my graue, and her wombe an euerlasting
conception.
18 Why came I out of the wombe, that I
should see labour and sorow, and my daies should be spent in
confusion?
