Jeremiah 5 - King James Bible with Strong Numbers1 H7751Run ye to and fro[H8786] H2351through the streetsH3389of JerusalemH7200, and see[H8798] H3045now, and know[H8798] H1245, and seek[H8761] H7339in the broad placesH4672thereof, if ye can find[H8799] H376a manH3426, if there beH6213any that executeth[H8802] H4941judgmentH1245, that seeketh[H8764] H530the truthH5545; and I will pardon[H8799] it. 2 H559And though they say[H8799] H3068, The LORDH2416livethH7650; surely they swear[H8735] H8267falsely. 3 H3068O LORDH5869, are not thine eyesH530upon the truthH5221? thou hast stricken[H8689] H2342them, but they have not grieved[H8804] H3615; thou hast consumed[H8765] H3985them, but they have refused[H8765] H3947to receive[H8800] H4148correctionH6440: they have made their facesH2388harder[H8765] H5553than a rockH3985; they have refused[H8765] H7725to return[H8800] . 4 H559Therefore I said[H8804] H1800, Surely these are poorH2973; they are foolish[H8738] H3045: for they know[H8804] H1870not the wayH3068of the LORDH4941, nor the judgmentH430of their God. 5 H3212I will get[H8799] H1419me unto the great menH1696, and will speak[H8762] H3045unto them; for they have known[H8804] H1870the wayH3068of the LORDH4941, and the judgmentH430of their GodH3162: but these have altogetherH7665broken[H8804] H5923the yokeH5423, and burst[H8765] H4147the bonds. 6 H738Wherefore a lionH3293out of the forestH5221shall slay[H8689] H2061them, and a wolfH6160of the eveningsH7703shall spoil[H8799] H5246them, a leopardH8245shall watch[H8802] H5892over their citiesH3318: every one that goeth out[H8802] H2007thence shallH2963be torn in pieces[H8735] H6588: because their transgressionsH7231are many[H8804] H4878, and their backslidingsH6105are increased[H8804] . 7 H335HowH5545shall I pardon[H8799] H2063thee for thisH1121? thy childrenH5800have forsaken[H8804] H7650me, and sworn[H8735] H3808by them that are noH430godsH7650: when I had fed them to the full[H8686] H5003, they then committed adultery[H8799] H1413, and assembled themselves by troops[H8704] H2181in the harlots[H8802] H1004' houses. 8 H2109They were as fed[H8716] H5483horsesH7904in the morning[H8688] H376: every oneH6670neighed[H8799] H7453after his neighbour'sH802wife. 9 H6485Shall I not visit[H8799] H5002for these things ? saith[H8803] H3068the LORDH5315: and shall not my soulH5358be avenged[H8691] H1471on such a nation as this? 10 H5927Go ye up[H8798] H8284upon her wallsH7843, and destroy[H8761] H6213; but make[H8799] H3617not a full endH5493: take away[H8685] H5189her battlementsH3068; for they are not the LORD'S. 11 H1004For the houseH3478of IsraelH1004and the houseH3063of JudahH898have dealt very[H8800] H898treacherously[H8804] H5002against me, saith[H8803] H3068the LORD. 12 H3584They have belied[H8765] H3068the LORDH559, and said[H8799] H7451, It is not he; neither shall evilH935come[H8799] H7200upon us; neither shall we see[H8799] H2719swordH7458nor famine: 13 H5030And the prophetsH7307shall become windH1696, and the word[H8763] H6213is not in them: thus shall it be done[H8735] unto them. 14 H559Wherefore thus saith[H8804] H3068the LORDH430GodH6635of hostsH1696, Because ye speak[H8763] H1697this wordH5414, behold, I will make[H8802] H1697my wordsH6310in thy mouthH784fireH5971, and this peopleH6086woodH398, and it shall devour[H8804] them. 15 H935Lo, I will bring[H8688] H1471a nationH4801upon you from farH1004, O houseH3478of IsraelH5002, saith[H8803] H3068the LORDH386: it is a mightyH1471nationH5769, it is an ancientH1471nationH1471, a nationH3956whose languageH3045thou knowest[H8799] H8085not, neither understandest[H8799] H1696what they say[H8762] . 16 H827Their quiverH6605is as an open[H8803] H6913sepulchreH1368, they are all mighty men. 17 H398And they shall eat up[H8804] H7105thine harvestH3899, and thy breadH1121, which thy sonsH1323and thy daughtersH398should eat[H8799] H398: they shall eat up[H8799] H6629thy flocksH1241and thine herdsH398: they shall eat up[H8799] H1612thy vinesH8384and thy fig treesH7567: they shall impoverish[H8779] H4013thy fencedH5892citiesH2007, wherein thouH982trustedst[H8802] H2719, with the sword. 18 H3117Nevertheless in those daysH5002, saith[H8803] H3068the LORDH6213, I will not make[H8799] H3617a full end with you. 19 H559And it shall come to pass, when ye shall say[H8799] H8478, WhereforeH4100 H6213doeth[H8804] H3068the LORDH430our GodH559all these things unto us? then shalt thou answer[H8804] H5800them, Like as ye have forsaken[H8804] H5647me, and served[H8799] H5236strangeH430godsH776in your landH5647, so shall ye serve[H8799] H2114strangers[H8801] H776in a land that is not yours. 20 H5046Declare[H8685] H1004this in the houseH3290of JacobH8085, and publish[H8685] H3063it in JudahH559, saying[H8800] , 21 H8085Hear[H8798] H5530now this, O foolishH5971peopleH3820, and without understandingH5869; which have eyesH7200, and see[H8799] H241not; which have earsH8085, and hear[H8799] not: 22 H3372Fear[H8799] H5002ye not me? saith[H8803] H3068the LORDH2342: will ye not tremble[H8799] H6440at my presenceH7760, which have placed[H8804] H2344the sandH1366for the boundH3220of the seaH5769by a perpetualH2706decreeH5674, that it cannot pass[H8799] H1530it: and though the wavesH1607thereof toss[H8691] H3201themselves, yet can they not prevail[H8799] H1993; though they roar[H8804] H5674, yet can they not pass over[H8799] it? 23 H5971But this peopleH5637hath a revolting[H8802] H4784and a rebellious[H8802] H3820heartH5493; they are revolted[H8804] H3212and gone[H8799] . 24 H559Neither say[H8804] H3824they in their heartH3372, Let us now fear[H8799] H3068the LORDH430our GodH5414, that giveth[H8802] H1653rainH3138, both the formerH4456and the latterH6256, in his seasonH8104: he reserveth[H8799] H2708unto us the appointedH7620weeksH7105of the harvest. 25 H5771Your iniquitiesH5186have turned away[H8689] H2403these things, and your sinsH4513have withholden[H8804] H2896good things from you. 26 H5971For among my peopleH4672are found[H8738] H7563wickedH7789men : they lay wait[H8799] H7918, as he that setteth[H8800] H3353snaresH5324; they set[H8689] H4889a trapH3920, they catch[H8799] H582men. 27 H3619As a cageH4392is fullH5775of birdsH1004, so are their housesH4392fullH4820of deceitH1431: therefore they are become great[H8804] H6238, and waxen rich[H8686] . 28 H8080They are waxen fat[H8804] H6245, they shine[H8804] H5674: yea, they overpass[H8804] H1697the deedsH7451of the wickedH1777: they judge[H8804] H1779not the causeH3490, the cause of the fatherlessH6743, yet they prosper[H8686] H4941; and the rightH34of the needyH8199do they not judge[H8804] . 29 H6485Shall I not visit[H8799] H5002for these things ?
