Now it happened H1961 [fn]in the spring H8666, at the time H6256 when [fn]kings H4428 go H3318 out H3318 to battle, that David H1732 sent H7971 Joab H3097 and his servants H5650 with him and all H3605 Israel H3478, and they destroyed H7843 the sons H1121 of Ammon H5983 and besieged H6696 H5921 Rabbah H7237. But David H1732 stayed H3427 at Jerusalem H3389.
Now Rehoboam H7346 the son H1121 of Solomon H8010 became H4427 king H4427 in Judah H3063. Rehoboam H7346 was forty-one H705 H259 years H8141 old H1121 when he became H4427 king H4427, and he reigned H4427 seventeen H7651 H6240 years H8141 in Jerusalem H3389, the city H5892 which H834 Yahweh H3068 had chosen H977 from all H3605 the tribes H7626 of Israel H3478 to put H7760 His name H8034 there H8033. And his mother's H517 name H8034 was Naamah H5279 the Ammonitess H5985.
So Hilkiah H2518 the priest H3548, Ahikam H296, Achbor H5907, Shaphan H8227, and Asaiah H6222 went H1980 to Huldah H2468 the prophetess H5031, the wife H802 of Shallum H7967 the son H1121 of [fn]Tikvah H8616, the son H1121 of Harhas H2745, keeper H8104 of the wardrobe H899 (now she lived H3427 in Jerusalem H3389 in the Second H4932 Quarter); and they spoke H1696 to her.
Moreover H1571, the mediums H178 and the spiritists H3049 and the teraphim H8655 and the idols H1544 and all H3605 the detestable H8251 things H8251 that were seen H7200 in the land H776 of Judah H3063 and in Jerusalem H3389, Josiah H2977 purged H1197 in order that he might [fn]establish H6965 the words H1697 of the law H8451 which were written H3789 in the book H5612 that Hilkiah H2518 the priest H3548 found H4672 in the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068.
Now it happened H1961 [fn]in the spring H8666, at the time H6256 when kings H4428 go H3318 out H3318 to battle, that Joab H3097 led H5090 out H5090 the force H2428 of the military H6635 and brought H7843 the land H776 of the sons H1121 of Ammon H5983 to ruin H7843, and came H935 and besieged H6696 Rabbah H7237. But David H1732 stayed H3427 at Jerusalem H3389. And Joab H3097 struck H5221 Rabbah H7237 and [fn]tore H2040 it down H2040.
And David H1732 assembled H6950 at Jerusalem H3389 all H3605 the commanders H8269 of Israel H3478, the commanders H8269 of the tribes H7626, and the commanders H8269 of the divisions H4256 that ministered H8334 to the king H4428, and the commanders H8269 of thousands H505, and the commanders H8269 of hundreds H3967, and the commanders H8269 over all H3605 the property H7399 and livestock H4735 belonging to the king H4428 and his sons H1121, with the officials H5631 and the mighty H1368 men H1368, even all H3605 the mighty H1368 men H1368 of valor H2428.
Then Solomon H8010 began H2490 to build H1129 the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 in Jerusalem H3389 on Mount H2022 Moriah H4179, where H834 Yahweh had appeared H7200 to his father H1 David H1732, at the place H4725 that David H1732 had prepared H3559 on the threshing H1637 floor H1637 of [fn]Ornan H771 the Jebusite H2983.
When Yahweh H3068 saw H7200 that they humbled H3665 themselves, the word H1697 of Yahweh H3068 came H1961 to Shemaiah H8098, saying H559, “They have humbled H3665 themselves so I will not bring them to ruin H7843, but I will grant H5414 them some H4592 measure of escape H6413, and My wrath H2534 shall not be poured H5413 out H5413 on Jerusalem H3389 by the hand H3027 of Shishak H7895.
So King H4428 Rehoboam H7346 strengthened H2388 himself in Jerusalem H3389 and reigned H4427. Now H3588 Rehoboam H7346 was forty-one H705 H259 years H8141 old H1121 when he became H4427 king H4427, and he reigned H4427 seventeen H7651 H6240 years H8141 in Jerusalem H3389, the city H5892 which H834 Yahweh H3068 had chosen H977 from all H3605 the tribes H7626 of Israel H3478 to put H7760 His name H8034 there H8033. And his mother's H517 name H8034 was Naamah H5279 the Ammonitess H5985.
In Jerusalem H3389 also H1571 Jehoshaphat H3092 appointed H5975 some H4480 of the Levites H3881 and priests H3548, and some H4480 of the heads H7218 of the fathers' H1 households of Israel H3478, for the judgment H4941 of Yahweh H3068 and to judge H7378 [fn]disputes H7378. So they returned H7725 to Jerusalem H3389.
And they rose H7925 early H7925 in the morning H1242 and went H3318 out H3318 to the wilderness H4057 of Tekoa H8620; and when they went H3318 out H3318, Jehoshaphat H3092 stood H5975 and said H559, “Listen H8085 to me, O Judah H3063 and inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389, establish H539 your faith H539 in Yahweh H3068 your God H430 and you will be established H539. Establish H539 your faith H539 in His prophets H5030 and succeed H6743.”
Thus Jehoshaphat H3092 reigned H4427 over H5921 Judah H3063. He was thirty-five H7970 H2568 years H8141 old H1121 when he became H4427 king H4427, and he reigned H4427 in Jerusalem H3389 twenty-five H6242 H2568 years H8141. And his mother's H517 name H8034 was Azubah H5806 the daughter H1323 of Shilhi H7977.
Then the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 made H4427 [fn]Ahaziah H274, his youngest H6996 son H1121, king H4427 in H8478 his place H8478, for the band H1416 of H1416 men H1416 who came H935 with the Arabs H6163 to the camp H4264 had killed H2026 all H3605 the older H7223 sons. So Ahaziah H274 the son H1121 of Jehoram H3088 king H4428 of Judah H3063 became H4427 king H4427.
Moreover, Amaziah H558 assembled H6908 Judah H3063 and appointed H5975 them according to their fathers' H1 households H1004 under commanders H8269 of thousands H505 and commanders H8269 of hundreds H3967 throughout H3605 Judah H3063 and Benjamin H1144; and he [fn]took H6485 a H6485 census H6485 of those from twenty H6242 years H8141 old H1121 and upward H4605 and found H4672 them to be 300,000 H7969 H3967 H505 choice H970 men, able to go H3318 out H3318 for military duty H6635, able to handle H270 spear H7420 and large H6793 shield H6793.
After H310 this H2088 Sennacherib H5576 king H4428 of Assyria H804 sent H7971 his servants H5650 to Jerusalem H3389 while he was [fn]besieging H5921 Lachish H3923 with all H3605 his forces H4475 with him, against H5921 Hezekiah H2396 king H4428 of Judah H3063 and against H5921 all H3605 Judah H3063 who H834 were at Jerusalem H3389, saying H559,
So Hilkiah H2518 and those whom H834 the king H4428 [fn]had told went H1980 to Huldah H2468 the prophetess H5031, the wife H802 of Shallum H7967 the son H1121 of [fn]Tokhath H8445, the son H1121 of Hasrah H2641, keeper H8104 of the wardrobe H899 (now she lived H3427 in Jerusalem H3389 in the Second H4932 Quarter); and they spoke H1696 to her regarding this H2088.
‘Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of heaven H8064, has given H5414 me all H3605 the kingdoms H4467 of the earth H776, and He has appointed H6485 me to build H1129 Him a house H1004 in Jerusalem H3389, which H834 is in Judah H3063. Whoever H4310 there is among you of all H3605 His people H5971, may Yahweh H3068 his God H430 be with him, and let him go H5927 up H5927!'”
‘Whoever H4310 there is among you of all H3605 His people H5971, may his God H430 be with him! Let him go H5927 up H5927 to Jerusalem H3389 which H834 is in Judah H3063 and rebuild H1129 the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478; He is the God H430 who H834 is in Jerusalem H3389.
‘So everyone H3605 who remains H7604, at whatever H3605 H834 place H4725 he may sojourn H1481, let the men H376 of [fn]that place H4725 support H5375 him with silver H3701 and gold H2091, with goods H7399 and cattle H929, together H5973 with H5973 a freewill H5071 offering H5071 for the house H1004 of God H430 which H834 is in Jerusalem H3389.'”
Then the heads H7218 of fathers' H1 households of Judah H3063 and Benjamin H1144 and the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881 arose H6965, that is of everyone H3605 whose spirit H7307 God H430 had stirred H5782 to go H5927 up H5927 to rebuild H1129 the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 which H834 is in Jerusalem H3389.
‘Also H638 the gold H1722 and silver H3702 utensils H3984 of the house H1005 of God H426, which H1768 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 had taken H5312 from the temple H1965 [fn]in Jerusalem H3390 and brought H2987 them to the temple H1965 of Babylon H895, these H1994 King H4430 Cyrus H3567 took H5312 out H5312 from the temple H1965 of Babylon H895, and they were given H3052 to one whose name H8036 was Sheshbazzar H8340, whom H1768 he had appointed H7761 governor H6347.
“So now H3705 if H2006 it seems H2869 good H2869 to the king H4430, let a search H1240 be made H1240 in the king's H4430 treasure H1596 house H1005, which H1768 is there H8536 in Babylon H895, if H2006 it be that a decree H2942 was issued H7761 by King H4430 Cyrus H3567 to rebuild H1124 that H1791 house H1005 of God H426 in Jerusalem H3390; and let the king H4430 send H7972 to us his will H7470 concerning H5922 this H1836 matter.”
“In the first H2298 year H8140 of King H4430 Cyrus H3567, Cyrus H3567 the king H4430 issued H7761 a decree H2942:
‘Concerning the house H1005 of God H426 in Jerusalem H3390, let that house H1005, the place H870 where H1768 sacrifices H1685 are offered H1684, be rebuilt H1124 and let its foundations H787 be [fn]retained H5446, its height H7314 being [fn]60 H8361 cubits H521 and its width H6613 60 H8361 cubits H521;
‘And also H638 let the gold H1722 and silver H3702 articles H3984 of the house H1005 of God H426, which H1768 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 took H5312 out H5312 from the temple H1965 in Jerusalem H3390 and brought H2987 to Babylon H895, be returned H8421 and [fn]brought H1981 to their places H870 in the temple H1965 in Jerusalem H3390; and you shall deposit H5182 them in the house H1005 of God H426.'
“Whatever H4101 is needed H2819, both young H1123 bulls H8450, rams H1798, and lambs H563 for a burnt H5928 offering H5928 to the God H426 of heaven H8065, and wheat H2591, salt H4416, wine H2562, and anointing H4887 oil H4887, according to what the priests H3549 in Jerusalem H3390 say H3983, it is to be given H3052 to them daily H3118 without H3809 negligence H7960,
“May the God H426 who H1768 has caused His name H8036 to dwell H7932 there H8536 overthrow H4049 any H3606 king H4430 or people H5972 who H1768 [fn]stretches H7972 out his hand H3028 to change H8133 it, so as to destroy H2255 that H1791 house H1005 of God H426 in Jerusalem H3390. I, Darius H1868, have issued H7761 this decree H2942, let it be done H5648 with all H629 diligence H629!”
and all H3606 the silver H3702 and gold H1722 which H1768 you find H7912 in the whole H3606 province H4083 of Babylon H895, along H5973 with H5973 the freewill H5069 offering H5069 of the people H5972 and of the priests H3549, who offered H5069 willingly H5069 for the house H1005 of their God H426 which H1768 is in Jerusalem H3390;
with this H1836 money H3702, therefore H6903 H1836, you shall with all H629 diligence H629 buy H7066 bulls H8450, rams H1798, and lambs H563, with their grain offerings H4504 and their drink H5261 offerings H5261, and bring H7127 them near H727 to the altar H4056 of the house H1005 of your God H426 which H1768 is in Jerusalem H3390.
“You have also H1571 [fn]set H5975 up H5975 prophets H5030 to call H7121 out H7121 in Jerusalem H3389 concerning H5921 [fn]you, ‘A king H4428 is in Judah H3063!' So now H6258 it will be heard H8085 by the king H4428 according to these H428 words H1697. So now H6258, come H1980, let us take H3289 counsel H3289 together H3162.”
Now these H428 are the heads H7218 of the provinces H4082 who H834 lived H3427 in Jerusalem H3389, but in the cities H5892 of Judah H3063 each H376 lived H3427 in his own possession H272 in their cities H5892—[fn]the Israelites H3478, the priests H3548, the Levites H3881, the [fn]temple H5411 servants H5411, and the sons H1121 of Solomon's H8010 servants H5650.
Athaiah H6265 the son H1121 of Uzziah H5818, the son H1121 of Zechariah H2148, the son H1121 of Amariah H568, the son H1121 of Shephatiah H8203, the son H1121 of Mahalalel H4111, from the sons H1121 of Perez H6557;
Now at the dedication H2598 of the wall H2346 of Jerusalem H3389 they sought H1245 out H1245 the Levites H3881 from all H3605 their places H4725, to bring H935 them to Jerusalem H3389 so that they might celebrate H6213 the dedication H2598 with gladness H8057, with hymns H8426 of H8426 thanksgiving H8426 and with songs H7892 to the accompaniment of cymbals H4700, harps H5035 and lyres H3658.
I spoke H1696 within my heart H3820, saying H559, “Behold H2009, I have magnified H1431 and increased H3254 wisdom H2451 more H5921 than H5921 all H3605 who H834 were over H5921 Jerusalem H3389 before H6440 me; and my heart H3820 has seen H7200 an abundance H7235 of wisdom H2451 and knowledge H1847.”
So it will be that when H3588 the Lord H136 has completed H1214 all H3605 His work H4639 on Mount H2022 Zion H6726 and on Jerusalem H3389, He will say, “I will [fn]punish H6485 the fruit H6529 of the arrogant H1433 heart H3824 of the king H4428 of Assyria H804 and the pomp H8597 of his eyes H5869 which are raised H7312 high H7312.”
Confirming H6965 the word H1697 of His servant H5650—
And the counsel H6098 of His messengers H4397 He will complete H7999—
And being the One who says H559 of Jerusalem H3389, ‘She shall be inhabited H3427!'
And of the cities H5892 of Judah H3063, ‘They shall be built H1129.'
And I will raise H6965 up H6965 her waste H2723 places H2723 again.
Now these H428 are the words H1697 of the letter H5612 which H834 Jeremiah H3414 the prophet H5030 sent H7971 from Jerusalem H3389 to the rest H3499 of the elders H2205 of the exile H1473, the priests H3548, the prophets H5030, and all H3605 the people H5971 whom H834 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 had taken H1540 away H1540 into H1540 exile H1473 from Jerusalem H3389 to Babylon H894.
Now it happened in the fifth H2549 year H8141 of Jehoiakim H3079 the son H1121 of Josiah H2977, king H4428 of Judah H3063, in the ninth H8671 month H2320, that all H3605 the people H5971 in Jerusalem H3389 and all H3605 the people H5971 who came H935 from the cities H5892 of Judah H3063 to Jerusalem H3389 called H7121 for a fast H6685 before H6440 Yahweh H3068.
“To You, O Lord H136, belongs righteousness H6666, but to us [fn]open H6440 shame H1322, as it is this H2088 day H3117—to the men H376 of Judah H3063, the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389, and all H3605 Israel H3478, those who are nearby H7138 and those who are far H7350 away in all H3605 the countries H776 to which H834 You have banished H5080 them, because of their unfaithful H4603 H4604 deeds H4604 which H834 they have committed H4603 against You.
Then the king H4428 and his men H376 went H1980 to Jerusalem H3389 against H413 the Jebusites H2983, the inhabitants H3427 of the land H776, and they said H559 to [fn]David H1732, “You shall not come H935 in H935 here H2008, but the blind H5787 and lame H6455 will turn H5493 you away H5493”; [fn]thinking H559, “David H1732 cannot H3808 enter H935 here H2008.”
Then David H1732 came H935 to his house H1004 at Jerusalem H3389, and the king H4428 took H3947 the ten H6235 women H802, the concubines H6370 whom H834 he had left H5117 to keep H8104 the house H1004, and placed H5414 them under guard H1004 H4931 and provided H3557 them with H3557 sustenance H3557, but did not go H935 in to them. So they were shut H6887 up H6887 until H5704 the day H3117 of their death H4191, living H2424 as widows H491.
Then Solomon H8010 awoke H3364, and behold H2009, it was a dream H2472. And he came H935 to Jerusalem H3389 and stood H5975 before H6440 the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of the Lord H136, and offered H5927 burnt H5930 offerings H5930 and made H6213 peace H8002 offerings H8002, and made H6213 a feast H4960 for all H3605 his servants H5650.
Then Rehoboam H7346 came H935 to Jerusalem H3389 and assembled H6950 all H3605 the house H1004 of Judah H3063 and the tribe H7626 of Benjamin H1144, 180,000 H3967 H8084 H505 chosen H977 men who could wage H6213 war H4421, to fight H3898 against H5973 the house H1004 of Israel H3478 to return H7725 the kingdom H4410 to Rehoboam H7346 the son H1121 of Solomon H8010.
Then the king H4428 of Assyria H804 sent H7971 Tartan H8661 and Rab-saris H7249 and Rabshakeh H7262 from Lachish H3923 to King H4428 Hezekiah H2396 with a heavy H3515 military H2428 force H2428 to Jerusalem H3389. So they went H5927 up H5927 and came H935 to Jerusalem H3389. And when they went H5927 up H5927, they came H935 and stood H5975 by the conduit H8585 of the upper H5945 pool H1295, which H834 is on the highway H4546 of the [fn]fuller's H3526 field H7704.
Moreover H1571, Manasseh H4519 shed H8210 very H3966 much H7235 innocent H5355 blood H1818 until H5704 H834 he had filled H4390 Jerusalem H3389 from one H6310 end H6310 to another H6310; besides H905 H4480 his sin H2403 with which H834 he made Judah H3063 sin H2398, in doing H6213 what H7451 is evil H7451 in the sight H5869 of Yahweh H3068.
Now in the ninth H8671 year H8141 of his reign H4427, on the tenth H6218 day of the tenth H6224 month H2320, Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894 came H935, he and all H3605 his military H2428 force H2428, against H5921 Jerusalem H3389, and he camped H2583 against H5921 it and built H1129 a siege H1785 wall H1785 all H5439 around H5439 [fn]it.
Now on the seventh H7651 day of the fifth H2549 month H2320, which H1931 was the nineteenth H8672 H6240 year H8141 of King H4428 Nebuchadnezzar H5019, king H4428 of Babylon H894, Nebuzaradan H5018 the captain H7227 of the guard H2876, a servant H5650 of the king H4428 of Babylon H894, came H935 to Jerusalem H3389.
Then H227 Solomon H8010 assembled H6950 the elders H2205 of Israel H3478 and all H3605 the heads H7218 of the tribes H4294, the leaders H5387 of the fathers' H1 households of the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 to Jerusalem H3389, to bring H5927 up H5927 the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of Yahweh H3068 from the city H5892 of David H1732, which H1931 is Zion H6726.
Now the queen H4436 of Sheba H7614 heard H8085 the report H8088 about Solomon H8010. So she came H935 to Jerusalem H3389 to test H5254 Solomon H8010 with riddles H2420. She had a very H3966 glorious H3515 retinue H2428, with camels H1581 carrying H5375 spices H1314 and a large H7230 amount H7230 of gold H2091 and precious H3368 stones H68. And she came H935 to Solomon H8010 and spoke H1696 with him about all H3605 that was in her heart H3824.
Now it happened H1961 at the turn H8622 of the year H8141 that the military H2428 force H2428 of the Arameans H758 came H5927 up H5927 against H5921 him; and they came H935 to Judah H3063 and Jerusalem H3389, destroyed H7843 all H3605 the officials H8269 of the people H5971 from among the people H5971, and sent H7971 all H3605 their spoil H7998 to the king H4428 of Damascus H1834.
And Hezekiah H2396 sent H7971 to all H3605 Israel H3478 and Judah H3063 and wrote H3789 letters H107 also H1571 to Ephraim H669 and Manasseh H4519, that they should come H935 to the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 at Jerusalem H3389 to [fn]celebrate H6213 the Passover H6453 to Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478.
After H310 this H2088 Sennacherib H5576 king H4428 of Assyria H804 sent H7971 his servants H5650 to Jerusalem H3389 while he was [fn]besieging H5921 Lachish H3923 with all H3605 his forces H4475 with him, against H5921 Hezekiah H2396 king H4428 of Judah H3063 and against H5921 all H3605 Judah H3063 who H834 were at Jerusalem H3389, saying H559,
‘Whoever H4310 there is among you of all H3605 His people H5971, may his God H430 be with him! Let him go H5927 up H5927 to Jerusalem H3389 which H834 is in Judah H3063 and rebuild H1129 the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478; He is the God H430 who H834 is in Jerusalem H3389.
Now these H428 are the [fn]people H1121 of the province H4082 who came H5927 up H5927 out of the captivity H7628 of the exiles H1473 whom H834 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 the king H4428 of Babylon H894 had taken H1540 away H1540 into H1540 exile H1540 to Babylon H894, and who returned H7725 to Jerusalem H3389 and Judah H3063, each H376 to his city H5892.
Now in the second H8145 year H8141 of their coming H935 to the house H1004 of God H430 at Jerusalem H3389 in the second H8145 month H2320, Zerubbabel H2216 the son H1121 of Shealtiel H7597 and Jeshua H3091 the son H1121 of Jozadak H3087 and the rest H7605 of their brothers H251 the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881, and all H3605 who came H935 from the captivity H7628 to Jerusalem H3389, began H2490 the work and appointed H5975 the Levites H3881 from twenty H6242 years H8141 and older H4605 to direct H5329 the work H4399 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068.
let it be H3046 known H3046 to the king H4430 that the Jews H3062 who H1768 came H5559 up H5559 from you have come H858 to us at Jerusalem H3390; they are rebuilding H1124 the rebellious H4779 and evil H873 city H7149 and are completing H3635 the walls H7792 and repairing H2338 the foundations H787.
Then H116 as soon H4481 H1768 as the copy H6573 of King H4430 Artaxerxes' H783 document H5407 was read H7123 before H6925 Rehum H7348 and Shimshai H8124 the scribe H5613 and their colleagues H3675, they went H236 in haste H924 to Jerusalem H3390 to the Jews H3062 and stopped H989 them by force H153 and military H2429.
Then we set H5265 out H5265 from the river H5104 Ahava H163 on the twelfth H8147 H6240 of the first H7223 month H2320 to go H1980 to Jerusalem H3389; and the hand H3027 of our God H430 was upon H5921 us, and He delivered H5337 us from the hand H3709 of the enemy H340 and the ambushes H693 by the way H1870.
So all H3605 the men H376 of Judah H3063 and Benjamin H1144 gathered H6908 at Jerusalem H3389 within the three H7969 days H3117. It was the ninth H8671 month H2320 on the twentieth H6242 of the month H2320, and all H3605 the people H5971 sat H3427 in the open H7339 square H7339 before the house H1004 of God H430, trembling H7460 because H5921 of this matter H1697 and the heavy rain H1653.
These H428 are the [fn]people H1121 of the province H4082 who came H5927 up H5927 out of the captivity H7628 of the exiles H1473 whom H834 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 the king H4428 of Babylon H894 had taken H1540 away H1540 into H1540 exile H1540, and who returned H7725 to Jerusalem H3389 and Judah H3063, each H376 to his city H5892,
Now at the dedication H2598 of the wall H2346 of Jerusalem H3389 they sought H1245 out H1245 the Levites H3881 from all H3605 their places H4725, to bring H935 them to Jerusalem H3389 so that they might celebrate H6213 the dedication H2598 with gladness H8057, with hymns H8426 of H8426 thanksgiving H8426 and with songs H7892 to the accompaniment of cymbals H4700, harps H5035 and lyres H3658.
In those H1992 days H3117 I saw H7200 in Judah H3063 some who were treading H1869 wine H1660 presses H1660 on the sabbath H7676, and bringing H935 in H935 sacks H6194 of H6194 grain H6194 and loading H6006 them on donkeys H2543, as well H637 as wine H3196, grapes H6025, figs H8384 and all H3605 kinds of loads H4853, and they brought H935 them into Jerusalem H3389 on the sabbath H7676 day H3117. So I testified H5749 against them on the day H3117 they sold H4376 food H6718.
Now it happened H1961 in the days H3117 of Ahaz H271, the son H1121 of Jotham H3147, the son H1121 of Uzziah H5818, king H4428 of Judah H3063, that Rezin H7526 the king H4428 of Aram H758 and Pekah H6492 the son H1121 of Remaliah H7425, king H4428 of Israel H3478, went H5927 up H5927 to Jerusalem H3389 to wage war H4421 against H5921 it, but could H3201 not [fn]conquer H3898 H5921 it.
Behold H2372 Zion H6726, the city H7151 of our appointed H4150 times H4150;
Your eyes H5869 will see H7200 Jerusalem H3389, an abode H5116 at H7600 ease H7600,
A tent H168 which will not be folded H6813;
Its stakes H3489 will never H1077 H5331 be pulled H5265 up H5265,
Nor H1077 any H3605 of its cords H2256 ever H1077 be torn H5423 apart H5423.
Get H5927 yourself up H5927 on a high H1364 mountain H2022,
O Zion H6726, bearer H1319 of H1319 good H1319 news H1319,
Raise H7311 up H7311 your voice H6963 powerfully H3581,
O Jerusalem H3389, bearer H1319 of H1319 good H1319 news H1319;
Raise H7311 it up H7311, do not fear H3372.
“At that time H6256,” declares H5002 Yahweh H3068, “they will bring H3318 out H3318 the bones H6106 of the kings H4428 of Judah H3063 and the bones H6106 of its princes H8269, and the bones H6106 of the priests H3548 and the bones H6106 of the prophets H5030, and the bones H6106 of the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 from their graves H6913.
The word H1697 which H834 came H1961 to Jeremiah H3414 from Yahweh H3068, when Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894 and all H3605 his military H2428 force H2428, with all H3605 the kingdoms H4467 of the earth H776 that were under his [fn]dominion H4475 and all H3605 the peoples H5971, were fighting H3898 against H5921 Jerusalem H3389 and against H5921 all H3605 its cities H5892, saying H559,
[fn]Now when H834 Jerusalem H3389 was captured H3920 [fn]in the ninth H8671 year H8141 of Zedekiah H6667 king H4428 of Judah H3063, in the tenth H6224 month H2320, Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894 and all H3605 his military H2428 force H2428 came H935 to Jerusalem H3389 and laid H6696 siege H6696 to it;
For thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635, the God H430 of Israel H3478, “As My anger H639 and wrath H2534 have been poured H5413 out H5413 on the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389, so H3651 My wrath H2534 will be poured H5413 out H5413 on you when you enter H935 Egypt H4714. And you will become H1961 a curse H423, an object H8047 of H8047 horror H8047, an imprecation H7045, and a reproach H2781; and you will see H7200 this H2088 place H4725 no H3808 more H5750.”
Now on the tenth H6218 day of the fifth H2549 month H2320, which H1931 was the nineteenth H8672 H6240 year H8141 of King H4428 Nebuchadnezzar H5019, king H4428 of Babylon H894, Nebuzaradan H5018 the captain H7227 of the bodyguard H2876, who stood H5975 before H6440 the king H4428 of Babylon H894, came H935 to Jerusalem H3389.
For thus H3541 says H559 Lord H136 Yahweh H3068, “How H637 much H637 more H637 H3588 when H3588 I send H7971 My four H702 calamitous H7451 judgments H8201 against H413 Jerusalem H3389: sword H2719, famine H7458, wild H7451 beasts H2416, and plague H1698 to cut H3772 off H3772 man H120 and beast H929 from it!
The words H1697 of Amos H5986, who H834 was among the sheepherders H5349 from Tekoa H8620, which H834 he beheld H2372 in visions concerning H5921 Israel H3478 in the days H3117 of Uzziah H5818 king H4428 of Judah H3063, and in the days H3117 of Jeroboam H3379 son H1121 of Joash H3060, king H4428 of Israel H3478, two years H8141 before H6440 the earthquake H7494.
“So I will stretch H5186 out H5186 My hand H3027 against H5921 Judah H3063
And against H5921 all H3605 the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389.
And I will cut H3772 off H3772 the remnant H7605 of Baal H1168 from this H2088 place H4725,
And the names H8034 of the idolatrous H3649 priests H3649 along H5973 with H5973 the priests H3548,
Then the angel H4397 of Yahweh H3068 answered H6030 and said H559, “O Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635, how H4970 long H5704 H4970 will You have H7355 no H3808 compassion H7355 for H7355 Jerusalem H3389 and the cities H5892 of Judah H3063, with which H834 You have been H2194 indignant H2194 these H2088 seventy H7657 years H8141?”
“In that day H3117 I will make H7760 the clans H441 of Judah H3063 like a fiery H784 laver H3595 among pieces of wood H6086 and a fiery H784 torch H3940 among sheaves H5995, so they will consume H398 on the right H3225 hand H3225 and on the left H8040 all H3605 the surrounding H5439 peoples H5971, while Jerusalem H3389 will again H5750 be inhabited H3427 in H8478 its own place H8478—in Jerusalem H3389.
“And I will pour H8210 out H8210 on the house H1004 of David H1732 and on the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 [fn]the Spirit H7307 of grace H2580 and of supplication H8469, so that they will look H5027 on Me whom H834 they have pierced H1856; and they will mourn H5594 for Him, as one mourns H5594 for an only H3173 son H3173, and they will weep H4843 bitterly H4843 over H5921 Him like the bitter H4843 weeping H4843 over H5921 a firstborn H1060.
Now this H2088 will be the plague H4046 with which H834 Yahweh H3068 will plague H5062 all H3605 the peoples H5971 who H834 have gone H6633 to war H6633 against H5921 Jerusalem H3389; their flesh H1320 will rot H4743 while they stand H5975 on their feet H7272, and their eyes H5869 will rot H4743 in their sockets H2356, and their tongue H3956 will rot H4743 in their mouth H6310.
Then it will be H1961 that any H3605 who are left H3498 of all H3605 the nations H1471 that went H935 against H5921 Jerusalem H3389 will go H5927 up H5927 from year H8141 to year H8141 to worship H2331 the King H4428, Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635, and to celebrate H2287 the Feast H2282 of Booths H5521.
Now it happened H1961 that when Adoni-zedek H139 king H4428 of Jerusalem H3389 heard H8085 that Joshua H3091 had captured H3920 Ai H5857 and had devoted H2763 it to destruction H2763 (just H834 as he had done H6213 to Jericho H3405 and its king H4428, so H3651 he had done H6213 to Ai H5857 and its king H4428), and that the inhabitants H3427 of Gibeon H1391 had made H7999 peace H7999 with Israel H3478 and were [fn]within H7130 their land H7130,
Then the king H4428 commanded H6680 Hilkiah H2518 the high H1419 priest H3548 and the priests H3548 of the second H4932 order and the [fn]doorkeepers H8104 H5592, to bring H3318 out H3318 of the temple H1964 of Yahweh H3068 all H3605 the vessels H3627 that were made H6213 for Baal H1168, for [fn]Asherah H842, and for all H3605 the host H6635 of heaven H8064; and he burned H8313 them outside H4480 H2351 Jerusalem H3389 in the fields H7709 of the Kidron H6939, and carried H5375 their ashes H6083 to Bethel H1008.
[fn]Now it happened that when H834 Sanballat H5571, Tobiah H2900, the Arabs H6163, the Ammonites H5984, and the Ashdodites H796 heard H8085 that the [fn]repair H724 of the walls H2346 of Jerusalem H3389 went H5927 on, and that the places broken H6555 down began H2490 to be H5640 closed H5640, they were H2734 very H3966 angry H2734.
Now it happened H1961 that just H834 as it grew H6751 dark H6751 at the gates H8179 of Jerusalem H3389 before H6440 the sabbath H7676, I said H559 the word, and the doors H1817 were shut H5462. Then I said H559 that they should not open H6605 them until H5704 after H310 the sabbath H7676. Then I had some of my young H5288 men H5288 stand H5975 at the gates H8179 so that no H3808 load H4853 would enter H935 on the sabbath H7676 day H3117.
And many H7227 peoples H5971 will come H1980 and say H559,
“Come H1980, let us go H5927 up H5927 to the mountain H2022 of Yahweh H3068,
To the house H1004 of the God H430 of Jacob H3290,
That He may instruct H3384 us [fn]from H4480 His ways H1870
And that we may walk H1980 in His paths H734.”
For from Zion H6726 the [fn]law H8451 will go H3318 forth H3318
“Roam H7751 to and fro H7751 through the streets H2351 of Jerusalem H3389,
And see H7200 now H4994 and know H3045,
And seek H1245 in her open H7339 squares H7339,
If H518 you can find H4672 a man H376,
If H518 there H3426 is H3426 one who does H6213 justice H4941, who seeks H1245 faithfulness H530,
Then I will pardon H5545 her.
“Also among the prophets H5030 of Jerusalem H3389 I have seen H7200 an appalling H8186 thing H8186:
The committing H5003 of H5003 adultery H5003 and walking H1980 in lying H8267;
And they strengthen H2388 the hands H3027 of evildoers H7489,
So that no H1115 one H376 has turned H7725 back H7725 from his evil H7451.
“Therefore H3651 thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635 concerning H5921 the prophets H5030,
‘Behold H2009, I am going to feed H398 them wormwood H3939
And make H8248 them drink H8248 [fn]poisoned H7219 water H4325,
For from the prophets H5030 of Jerusalem H3389
Pollution H2613 has gone H3318 forth H3318 into all H3605 the land H776.'”
After H310 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894 had taken H1540 away H1540 into H1540 exile H1540 Jeconiah H3204 the son H1121 of Jehoiakim H3079, king H4428 of Judah H3063, and the officials H8269 of Judah H3063 with the craftsmen H2796 and smiths H4525 from Jerusalem H3389, and had brought H935 them to Babylon H894, Yahweh H3068 showed H7200 me: behold H2009, two H8147 baskets H1731 of figs H8384 set H3259 before H6440 the temple H1964 of Yahweh H3068!
‘But like the rotten H7451 figs H8384 which H834 cannot H3808 be eaten H398 due H4480 to rottenness H7455—indeed H3588, thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068—so H3651 I will give H5414 over Zedekiah H6667 king H4428 of Judah H3063 and his officials H8269 and the remnant H7611 of Jerusalem H3389 who remain H7604 in this H2088 land H776 and the ones who inhabit H3427 the land H776 of Egypt H4714.
“Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068, ‘Yet H5750 again H5750 there will be heard H8085 in this H2088 place H4725, of which H834 you say H559, “It is a waste H2720, without H369 man H120 and without H369 beast H929,” that is, in the cities H5892 of Judah H3063 and in the streets H2351 of Jerusalem H3389 that are desolate H8074, without H369 man H120 and without H369 inhabitant H3427 and without H369 beast H929,
Now when H1768 Daniel H1841 knew H3046 that the written H3792 document was signed H7560, he entered H5954 his house H1005 (now in H5954 his roof H5952 chamber H5952 he had windows H3551 open H6606 toward H5049 Jerusalem H3390); and he continued kneeling H1289 on his knees H1291 three H8532 times H2166 a day H3118, praying H6739 and giving H3029 thanks H3029 before H6925 his God H426, [fn]as he had been doing H5648 previously H6928.
And many H7227 nations H1471 will come H1980 and say H559,
“Come H1980 and let us go H5927 up H5927 to the mountain H2022 of Yahweh H3068
And to the house H1004 of the God H430 of Jacob H3290,
That He may instruct H3384 us from H4480 His ways H1870
And that we may walk H1980 in His paths H734.”
For from Zion H6726 will go H3318 forth H3318 the law H8451,
Rejoice H1523 greatly H3966, O daughter H1323 of Zion H6726!
Make H7321 a H7321 loud H7321 shout H7321, O daughter H1323 of Jerusalem H3389!
Behold H2009, your king H4428 is coming H935 to you;
He is [fn]righteous H6662 and endowed H3467 with H3467 salvation H3467,
[fn]Lowly H6041 and mounted H7392 on a donkey H2543,
Even on a [fn]colt H5895, the [fn]foal H1121 of a pack H860 animal H860.
I will cut H3772 off H3772 the chariot H7393 from Ephraim H669
And the horse H5483 from Jerusalem H3389;
And the bow H7198 of war H4421 will be cut H3772 off H3772.
And He will speak H1696 peace H7965 to the nations H1471;
And His reign H4915 will be from sea H3220 to sea H3220
And from the [fn]River H5104 to the ends H657 of the earth H776.
All H3605 the land H776 will be changed H5437 into a plain H6160 from Geba H1387 to Rimmon H7417 south H5045 of Jerusalem H3389; but [fn]Jerusalem will rise H7213 and inhabit H3427 its site H8478 from Benjamin's H1144 Gate H8179 as far H5704 as the place H4725 of the First H7223 Gate H8179 to the Corner H6438 Gate H8179, and from the Tower H4026 of Hananel H2606 to the king's H4428 wine H3342 presses H3342.
“Zion H6726 will be plowed H2790 as a field H7704,
And Jerusalem H3389 will become H1961 a heap H5856 of H5856 ruins H5856,
And the mountain H2022 of the house H1004 will become [fn]the high H1116 places H1116 of a forest H3293.”'
Zayin
In the days H3117 of her affliction H6040 and homelessness H4788
Jerusalem H3389 remembers H2142 all H3605 her precious H4262 things H4262
That were from the days H3117 of old H6924,
When her people H5971 fell H5307 into the hand H3027 of the adversary H6862
And no H369 one H369 helped H5826 her.
Pe
Zion H6726 stretches H6566 out H6566 her hands H3027;
There H369 is H369 no H369 one H369 to comfort H5162 her;
Yahweh H3068 has commanded H6680 concerning Jacob H3290
That the ones round H5439 about H5439 him should be his adversaries H6862;
Jerusalem H3389 has become H1961 an impure H5079 thing H5079 among H996 them.
“As for your adulteries H5004 and your lustful neighings H4684,
The lewdness H2154 of your prostitution H2184
On the hills H1389 in the field H7704,
I have seen H7200 your detestable H8251 things H8251.
Woe H188 to you, O Jerusalem H3389!
How H4970 long H310 H4970 H5750 will you not H3808 cleanse H2891 yourself?”
