Jeremiah 37
Jer 37:1 And king Zedekiah the son of Josiah reigned instead of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim, whom Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon made king in the land of Judah. Jer 37:1 Now Zedekiah the son of Josiah whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had made king in the land of Judah, reigned as king in place of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim. Jer 37:1 ὁ λόγος ὁ γενόμενος πρὸς Ιερεμιαν παρὰ κυρίου εἰπεῖν
Jer 37:2 But neither he, nor his servants, nor the people of the land, did hearken unto the words of the LORD, which he spake by the prophet Jeremiah. Jer 37:2 But neither he nor his servants nor the people of the land listened to the words of the Lord which He spoke through Jeremiah the prophet. Jer 37:2 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ λέγων γράψον πάντας τοὺς λόγους οὓς ἐχρημάτισα πρὸς σέ ἐπὶ βιβλίου
Jer 37:3 And Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, Pray now unto the LORD our God for us. Jer 37:3 Yet King Zedekiah sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, to Jeremiah the prophet, saying, "Please pray to the Lord our God on our behalf." Jer 37:3 ὅτι ἰδοὺ ἡμέραι ἔρχονται φησὶν κύριος καὶ ἀποστρέψω τὴν ἀποικίαν λαοῦ μου Ισραηλ καὶ Ιουδα εἶπεν κύριος καὶ ἀποστρέψω αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν γῆν ἣν ἔδωκα τοῖς πατράσιν αὐτῶν καὶ κυριεύσουσιν αὐτῆς
Jer 37:4 Now Jeremiah came in and went out among the people: for they had not put him into prison. Jer 37:4 Now Jeremiah was still coming in and going out among the people, for they had not yet put him in the prison. Jer 37:4 καὶ οὗτοι οἱ λόγοι οὓς ἐλάλησεν κύριος ἐπὶ Ισραηλ καὶ Ιουδα
Jer 37:5 Then Pharaoh's army was come forth out of Egypt: and when the Chaldeans that besieged Jerusalem heard tidings of them, they departed from Jerusalem. Jer 37:5 Meanwhile, Pharaoh's army had set out from Egypt; and when the Chaldeans who had been besieging Jerusalem heard the report about them, they lifted the siege from Jerusalem. Jer 37:5 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος φωνὴν φόβου ἀκούσεσθε φόβος καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν εἰρήνη
Jer 37:6 Then came the word of the LORD unto the prophet Jeremiah saying, Jer 37:6 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah the prophet, saying, Jer 37:6 ἐρωτήσατε καὶ ἴδετε εἰ ἔτεκεν ἄρσεν καὶ περὶ φόβου ἐν ᾧ καθέξουσιν ὀσφὺν καὶ σωτηρίαν διότι ἑώρακα πάντα ἄνθρωπον καὶ αἱ χεῖρες αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τῆς ὀσφύος αὐτοῦ ἐστράφησαν πρόσωπα εἰς ἴκτερον
Jer 37:7 Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel; Thus shall ye say to the king of Judah, that sent you unto me to enquire of me; Behold, Pharaoh's army, which is come forth to help you, shall return to Egypt into their own land. Jer 37:7 "Thus says the Lord God of Israel, 'Thus you are to say to the king of Judah, who sent you to Me to inquire of Me. "Behold, Pharaoh's army which has come out for your assistance is going to return to its own land of Egypt. Jer 37:7 ἐγενήθη ὅτι μεγάλη ἡ ἡμέρα ἐκείνη καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν τοιαύτη καὶ χρόνος στενός ἐστιν τῷ Ιακωβ καὶ ἀπὸ τούτου σωθήσεται
Jer 37:8 And the Chaldeans shall come again, and fight against this city, and take it, and burn it with fire. Jer 37:8 The Chaldeans will also return and fight against this city, and they will capture it and burn it with fire."' Jer 37:8 ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ εἶπεν κύριος συντρίψω τὸν ζυγὸν ἀπὸ τοῦ τραχήλου αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς δεσμοὺς αὐτῶν διαρρήξω καὶ οὐκ ἐργῶνται αὐτοὶ ἔτι ἀλλοτρίοις
Jer 37:9 Thus saith the LORD; Deceive not yourselves, saying, The Chaldeans shall surely depart from us: for they shall not depart. Jer 37:9 Thus says the Lord, 'Do not deceive yourselves, saying, "The Chaldeans will surely go away from us," for they will not go. Jer 37:9 καὶ ἐργῶνται τῷ κυρίῳ θεῷ αὐτῶν καὶ τὸν Δαυιδ βασιλέα αὐτῶν ἀναστήσω αὐτοῖς
Jer 37:10 For though ye had smitten the whole army of the Chaldeans that fight against you, and there remained but wounded men among them, yet should they rise up every man in his tent, and burn this city with fire. Jer 37:10 For even if you had defeated the entire army of Chaldeans who were fighting against you, and there were only wounded men left among them, each man in his tent, they would rise up and burn this city with fire.'" Jer 37:10 LXX differs
Jer 37:11 And it came to pass, that when the army of the Chaldeans was broken up from Jerusalem for fear of Pharaoh's army, Jer 37:11 Now it happened when the army of the Chaldeans had lifted the siege from Jerusalem because of Pharaoh's army, Jer 37:11 LXX differs
Jer 37:12 Then Jeremiah went forth out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin, to separate himself thence in the midst of the people. Jer 37:12 that Jeremiah went out from Jerusalem to go to the land of Benjamin in order to take possession of some property there among the people. Jer 37:12 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ἀνέστησα σύντριμμα ἀλγηρὰ ἡ πληγή σου
Jer 37:13 And when he was in the gate of Benjamin, a captain of the ward was there, whose name was Irijah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah; and he took Jeremiah the prophet, saying, Thou fallest away to the Chaldeans. Jer 37:13 While he was at the Gate of Benjamin, a captain of the guard whose name was Irijah, the son of Shelemiah the son of Hananiah was there; and he arrested Jeremiah the prophet, saying, "You are going over to the Chaldeans!" Jer 37:13 οὐκ ἔστιν κρίνων κρίσιν σου εἰς ἀλγηρὸν ἰατρεύθης ὠφέλεια οὐκ ἔστιν σοι
Jer 37:14 Then said Jeremiah, It is false; I fall not away to the Chaldeans. But he hearkened not to him: so Irijah took Jeremiah, and brought him to the princes. Jer 37:14 But Jeremiah said, "A lie! I am not going over to the Chaldeans"; yet he would not listen to him. So Irijah arrested Jeremiah and brought him to the officials. Jer 37:14 πάντες οἱ φίλοι σου ἐπελάθοντό σου οὐ μὴ ἐπερωτήσουσιν ὅτι πληγὴν ἐχθροῦ ἔπαισά σε παιδείαν στερεάν ἐπὶ πᾶσαν ἀδικίαν σου ἐπλήθυναν αἱ ἁμαρτίαι σου
Jer 37:15 Wherefore the princes were wroth with Jeremiah, and smote him, and put him in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe: for they had made that the prison. Jer 37:15 Then the officials were angry at Jeremiah and beat him, and they put him in jail in the house of Jonathan the scribe, which they had made into the prison. Jer:37:15: LXX differs Jer 37:16 διὰ τοῦτο πάντες οἱ ἔσθοντές σε βρωθήσονται καὶ πάντες οἱ ἐχθροί σου κρέας αὐτῶν πᾶν ἔδονται ἐπὶ πλῆθος ἀδικιῶν σου ἐπληθύνθησαν αἱ ἁμαρτίαι σου ἐποίησαν ταῦτά σοι καὶ ἔσονται οἱ διαφοροῦντές σε εἰς διαφόρημα καὶ πάντας τοὺς προνομεύοντάς σε δώσω εἰς προνομήν
Jer 37:16 When Jeremiah was entered into the dungeon, and into the cabins, and Jeremiah had remained there many days; Jer 37:16 For Jeremiah had come into the dungeon, that is, the vaulted cell; and Jeremiah stayed there many days. Jer 37:17 ὅτι ἀνάξω τὸ ἴαμά σου ἀπὸ πληγῆς ὀδυνηρᾶς ἰατρεύσω σε φησὶν κύριος ὅτι ἐσπαρμένη ἐκλήθης θήρευμα ὑμῶν ἐστιν ὅτι ζητῶν οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτήν
Jer 37 17 Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took him out: and the king asked him secretly in his house, and said, Is there any word from the LORD? And Jeremiah said, There is for, said he, thou shalt be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon. Jer 37:17 Now King Zedekiah sent and took him out; and in his palace the king secretly asked him and said, "Is there a word from the Lord?" And Jeremiah said, "There is!" Then he said, "You will be given into the hand of the king of Babylon!" Jer 37:18 οὕτως εἶπεν κύριος ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀποστρέψω τὴν ἀποικίαν Ιακωβ καὶ αἰχμαλωσίαν αὐτοῦ ἐλεήσω καὶ οἰκοδομηθήσεται πόλις ἐπὶ τὸ ὕψος αὐτῆς καὶ ὁ ναὸς κατὰ τὸ κρίμα αὐτοῦ καθεδεῖται
Jer 37:18 Moreover Jeremiah said unto king Zedekiah, What have I offended against thee, or against thy servants, or against this people, that ye have put me in prison? Jer 37:18 Moreover Jeremiah said to King Zedekiah, "In what way have I sinned against you, or against your servants, or against this people, that you have put me in prison? Jer 37:19 καὶ ἐξελεύσονται ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν ᾄδοντες καὶ φωνὴ παιζόντων καὶ πλεονάσω αὐτούς καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐλαττωθῶσιν
Jer 37:19 Where are now your prophets which prophesied unto you, saying, The king of Babylon shall not come against you, nor against this land? Jer 37:19 Where then are your prophets who prophesied to you, saying, 'The king of Babylon will not come against you or against this land'? Jer:37:20:καὶ εἰσελεύσονται οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν ὡς τὸ πρότερον καὶ τὰ μαρτύρια αὐτῶν κατὰ πρόσωπόν μου ὀρθωθήσεται καὶ ἐπισκέψομαι τοὺς θλίβοντας αὐτούς Jer 37:21 καὶ ἔσονται ἰσχυρότεροι αὐτοῦ ἐπ᾽ αὐτούς καὶ ὁ ἄρχων αὐτοῦ ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἐξελεύσεται καὶ συνάξω αὐτούς καὶ ἀποστρέψουσιν πρός με ὅτι τίς ἐστιν οὗτος ὃς ἔδωκεν τὴν καρδίαν αὐτοῦ ἀποστρέψαι πρός με φησὶν κύριος
Jer 37:20 Therefore hear now, I pray thee, O my lord the king: let my supplication, I pray thee, be accepted before thee; that thou cause me not to return to the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there. Jer 37:20 But now, please listen, O my lord the king; please let my petition come before you and do not make me return to the house of Jonathan the scribe, that I may not die there." Jer 37:23 ὅτι ὀργὴ κυρίου ἐξῆλθεν θυμώδης ἐξῆλθεν ὀργὴ στρεφομένη ἐπ᾽ ἀσεβεῖς ἥξει
Jer 37:21 Then Zedekiah the king commanded that they should commit Jeremiah into the court of the prison, and that they should give him daily a piece of bread out of the bakers' street, until all the bread in the city were spent. Thus Jeremiah remained in the court of the prison. Jer 37:21 Then King Zedekiah gave commandment, and they committed Jeremiah to the court of the guardhouse and gave him a loaf of bread daily from the bakers' street, until all the bread in the city was gone. So Jeremiah remained in the court of the guardhouse. Jer 37:24 οὐ μὴ ἀποστραφῇ ὀργὴ θυμοῦ κυρίου ἕως ποιήσῃ καὶ ἕως καταστήσῃ ἐγχείρημα καρδίας αὐτοῦ ἐπ᾽ ἐσχάτων τῶν ἡμερῶν γνώσεσθε αὐτά
