Chap. XXVII.
note
Ieremie putteth chaines about his owne necke, and then sendeth them to
sundrie kinges, admonishing them, that they must either be subiect to
the king of Babylon, 8. or perish by sword, famine, and pestilence. 14.
Inueigheth against false prophetes preaching the contrarie. 16. and falsly
affirming that the vessels already taken away shal quickly be restored. 18.
Wheras in dede the rest shal also be caried away, but al at last restored.
1 In the beginning of the kingdom of Ioakim, the sonne
of Iosias king of Iuda, was this word made to Ieremie from
our Lord, saying:
2 Thus saith our Lord to me: Make thee
notebandes, and chaynes: and thou shalt put them on thy necke.
3 And thou shalt 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, that are come to Ierusalem to Sedecias the
king of Iuda.
4 And thou shalt command them that they
speake to their lordes: Thus saith the Lord of hostes the God
of Israel: Thus shal you say to your lordes:
5 I made the
earth, and men, and the beastes, that are vpon the face of
the earth, in my great strength, and in my stretched out arme:
and I haue geuen it to him, that pleased in mine eies.
6 And
now therefore I haue geuen al these landes into the hand of
Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon note my seruant: moreouer
also the beastes of the field I haue geuen him, to serue him.
7 And al nations shal serue him, and his sonne, and his sonnes
sonne: til the time come of his land and of himself: and manie
nations and great kinges shal serue him.
8 But the nation
and kingdome that shal not serue Nabuchodonosor king
of Babylon: and who soeuer shal not bowe his necke vnder
the yoke of the king of Babylon: I wil visite vpon that nation
with sword, and with famine, and with pestilence, saith
our Lord: til I consume them in his hand.
9 You therefore
heare not your prophetes, and deuiners, and dreamers, and
southsayers, and sorcerers, that say to you: You shal not serue
the king of Babylon.
10 Because they prophecie lies vnto you:
that they may make you far from your countrie, and cast you
out, and you perish.
11 But the nation, that shal submit their
necke vnder the yoke of the king of Babylon, and shal serue
him; the same wil I let alone in their owne land, saith our
Lord: and they shal husband it, and dwel in it.
12 And to Sedecias
the king of Iuda I haue spoken according to al these
-- --
wordes, saying: Submitte your neckes vnder the yoke of the
king of Babylon, & serue him, and his people, & you shal liue.
13 Why wil you dye, thou and thy people with the sword, and
famine, & the pestilence, as the Lord hath spoken to the nation,
that wil not serue the king of Babylon?
14 Heare not the
wordes of the prophetes that say to you: You shal not serue
the king of Babylon: because they speake a lie to you.
15 Because
I sent them not, saith our Lord: & they prophecie in my
name falsely: that they may cast you out, & you perish, as wel
you, as the prophetes that prophecie vnto you.
16 And to the
priestes, and to this people I haue spoken, saying: Thus saith
our Lord: Heare not the wordes of your prophetes, that prophecie
to you, saying: Behold the vessels of our Lord shal returne
out of Babylon euen now quickly, for they prophecie
a lie vnto you.
17 Therefore heare them not, but serue the
king of Babylon, that you may liue. Why is this citie geuen
into desolation?
18 And note if they be prophetes, and the word of
our Lord be in them: let them interpose them selues before
the Lord of hostes, that the vessels which were leaft in the
house of our Lord, and in the house of the king of Iuda, and
in Ierusalem, come not into Babylon.
19 Because thus saith
the Lord of hostes to the pillars, and to the sea, and to the feete,
and to the rest of the vessels, that are remayning in this citie.
20 Which Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon, tooke not
when he transported Ieconias the sonne of Ioakim, the king
of Iuda, from Ierusalem into Babylon, and al the great men of
Iuda and Ierusalem.
21 Because thus saith the Lord of hostes the
God of Israel to the vessels, that are left in the house of our
Lord, and in the house of the king of Iuda and Ierusalem:
22 They shal be transported into Babylon, and there they shal
be vntil the day of their visitation, saith our Lord: and I wil
cause them to be brought, and to be restored in this place.
