1 IN [THE] BEGINNING OF [THE] REIGN OF JEHOIAKIM [THE] SON OF JOSIAH [THE] KING OF JUDAH IT CAME THE WORD <THE> THIS TO JEREMIAH FROM WITH YAHWEH <TO> SAYING
The Yoke of Nebuchadnezzar
1 At the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah son of Josiah king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the LORD.
2 THUS HE SAID YAHWEH TO ME MAKE FOR <THE> YOURSELF FETTERS AND YOKE-BARS AND YOU WILL PUT THEM ON NECK YOUR
2 This is what the LORD said to me:
“Make for yourself a yoke out of leather straps and put it on your neck.
3 AND YOU WILL SEND THEM TO [THE] KING OF EDOM AND TO [THE] KING OF MOAB AND TO [THE] KING OF [THE] PEOPLE OF AMMON AND TO [THE] KING OF TYRE AND TO [THE] KING OF SIDON BY [THE] HAND OF MESSENGERS WHO HAVE COME JERUSALEM TO ZEDEKIAH [THE] KING OF JUDAH
3 Send word to the kings of Edom, Moab, Ammon Tyre, and Sidon through the envoys who have come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah.
4 AND YOU WILL COMMAND <OBJ.> THEM TO MASTERS THEIR <TO> SAYING THUS HE SAYS YAHWEH OF HOSTS [THE] GOD OF ISRAEL THUS YOU WILL SAY TO MASTERS YOUR
4 Give them a message from the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, to relay to their masters:
5 I I MADE <OBJ.> THE EARTH <OBJ.> <THE> HUMANKIND AND <OBJ.> THE ANIMAL[S] WHICH [ARE] ON [THE] SURFACE OF THE EARTH BY POWER MY <THE> GREAT AND BY ARM MY <THE> OUTSTRETCHED AND I GIVE IT TO [THOSE] WHOM IT IS PLEASING IN VIEW MY
5 By My great power and outstretched arm, I made the earth and the men and beasts on the face of it, and I give it to whom I please.
6 AND NOW I I GIVE <OBJ.> ALL THE LANDS <THE> THESE IN [THE] HAND OF NEBUCHADNEZZAR [THE] KING OF BABYLON SERVANT MY AND ALSO <OBJ.> [THE] ANIMAL[S] OF THE FIELD I GIVE TO <THE> HIM TO SERVE HIM
6 So now I have placed all these lands under the authority of My servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. I have even made the beasts of the field subject to him.
7 AND THEY WILL SERVE <OBJ.> HIM ALL THE NATIONS AND <OBJ.> SON HIS AND <OBJ.> [THE] SON OF SON HIS UNTIL COMES [THE] TIME OF LAND HIS ALSO HE AND THEY WILL WORK BY <THE> HIM NATIONS MANY AND KINGS GREAT
7 All nations will serve him and his son and grandson, until the time of his own land comes; then many nations and great kings will enslave him.
8 AND IT WILL BE THE NATION AND THE KINGDOM WHICH NOT THEY WILL SERVE <OBJ.> HIM <OBJ.> NEBUCHADNEZZAR [THE] KING OF BABYLON AND <OBJ.> WHICH NOT IT WILL PUT <OBJ.> NECK ITS IN [THE] YOKE OF [THE] KING OF BABYLON WITH THE SWORD AND WITH <THE> FAMINE AND WITH <THE> PESTILENCE I WILL VISIT [JUDGMENT] ON THE NATION <THE> THAT [THE] UTTERANCE OF YAHWEH UNTIL HAVE CONSUMED I <OBJ.> THEM BY HAND HIS
8 As for the nation or kingdom that does not serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and does not place its neck under his yoke, I will punish that nation by sword and famine and plague, declares the LORD, until I have destroyed it by his hand.
9 AND YOU MAY NOT YOU LISTEN TO PROPHETS YOUR AND TO DIVINERS YOUR AND TO DREAMS YOUR AND TO SOOTHSAYERS YOUR AND TO SORCERERS YOUR WHO THEY [ARE] SAYING TO YOU <TO> SAYING NOT YOU WILL SERVE <OBJ.> [THE] KING OF BABYLON
9 But as for you, do not listen to your prophets, your diviners, your interpreters of dreams, your mediums, or your sorcerers who declare, ‘You will not serve the king of Babylon.’
10 FOR FALSEHOOD THEY [ARE] PROPHESYING TO <THE> YOU SO AS TO REMOVE FAR AWAY <OBJ.> YOU FROM ON LAND YOUR AND I WILL DRIVE OUT <OBJ.> YOU AND YOU WILL PERISH
10 For they prophesy to you a lie that will serve to remove you from your land; I will banish you and you will perish.
11 AND THE NATION WHICH IT WILL BRING <OBJ.> NECK ITS IN [THE] YOKE OF [THE] KING OF BABYLON AND IT WILL SERVE HIM AND I WILL LET REMAIN IT ON LAND ITS [THE] UTTERANCE OF YAHWEH AND IT WILL WORK IT AND IT WILL DWELL IN <THE> IT
11 But the nation that will put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serve him, I will leave in its own land, to cultivate it and reside in it, declares the LORD.”
12 AND TO ZEDEKIAH [THE] KING OF JUDAH I SPOKE ACCORDING TO ALL THE WORDS <THE> THESE <TO> SAYING BRING <OBJ.> NECKS YOUR IN [THE] YOKE OF [THE] KING OF BABYLON AND SERVE <OBJ.> HIM AND PEOPLE HIS AND LIVE
12 And to Zedekiah king of Judah I spoke the same message: “Put your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon; serve him and his people, and live!
13 <TO> WHY? WILL YOU DIE YOU AND PEOPLE YOUR BY THE SWORD BY <THE> FAMINE AND BY <THE> PESTILENCE JUST AS HE HAS SPOKEN YAHWEH TO THE NATION WHICH NOT IT WILL SERVE <OBJ.> [THE] KING OF BABYLON
13 Why should you and your people die by sword and famine and plague, as the LORD has decreed against any nation that does not serve the king of Babylon?
14 AND MAY NOT YOU LISTEN TO [THE] WORDS OF THE PROPHETS WHO SAY TO YOU <TO> SAYING NOT YOU WILL SERVE <OBJ.> [THE] KING OF BABYLON FOR FALSEHOOD THEY [ARE] PROPHESYING TO <THE> YOU
14 Do not listen to the words of the prophets who say, ‘You must not serve the king of Babylon,’ for they are prophesying to you a lie.
15 FOR NOT I SENT THEM [THE] UTTERANCE OF YAHWEH AND THEY [ARE] PROPHESYING IN NAME MY TO <THE> FALSEHOOD SO AS TO DRIVE OUT I <OBJ.> YOU AND YOU WILL PERISH YOU AND THE PROPHETS WHO ARE PROPHESYING TO <THE> YOU
15 For I have not sent them, declares the LORD, and yet they are prophesying falsely in My name; therefore I will banish you, and you will perish— you and the prophets who prophesy to you.”
16 AND TO THE PRIESTS AND TO ALL THE PEOPLE <THE> THIS I SPOKE <TO> SAYING THUS HE SAYS YAHWEH MAY NOT YOU LISTEN TO [THE] WORDS OF PROPHETS YOUR WHO ARE PROPHESYING TO <THE> YOU <TO> SAYING THERE! [THE] ARTICLES OF [THE] HOUSE OF YAHWEH [ARE] ABOUT TO BE BROUGHT BACK FROM BABYLON <TOWARDS> NOW QUICKLY FOR FALSEHOOD THEY [ARE] PROPHESYING TO <THE> YOU
16 Then I said to the priests and to all this people “This is what the LORD says: Do not listen to the words of your prophets who prophesy to you, saying, ‘Look, very soon now the articles from the house of the LORD will be brought back from Babylon.’ They are prophesying to you a lie.
17 MAY NOT YOU LISTEN TO THEM SERVE <OBJ.> [THE] KING OF BABYLON AND LIVE <TO> WHY? WILL IT BECOME THE CITY <THE> THIS A RUIN
17 Do not listen to them. Serve the king of Babylon and live! Why should this city become a ruin?
18 AND IF [ARE] PROPHETS THEY AND IF THERE [IS] [THE] WORD OF YAHWEH WITH THEM LET THEM ENTREAT PLEASE <IN> YAHWEH OF HOSTS TO NOT GO THE ARTICLES WHICH REMAIN IN [THE] HOUSE OF YAHWEH AND [THE] HOUSE OF [THE] KING OF JUDAH AND IN JERUSALEM BABYLON TOWARDS
18 If they are indeed prophets and the word of the LORD is with them, let them now plead with the LORD of Hosts that the articles remaining in the house of the LORD, in the palace of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem, not be taken to Babylon.
19 FOR THUS HE SAYS YAHWEH OF HOSTS CONCERNING THE PILLARS AND ON THE SEA AND ON THE STANDS AND ON [THE] REMAINDER OF THE ARTICLES WHICH REMAIN IN THE CITY <THE> THIS
19 For this is what the LORD of Hosts says about the pillars, the sea, the bases, and the rest of the articles that remain in this city,
20 WHICH NOT HE TOOK THEM NEBUCHADNEZZAR [THE] KING OF BABYLON WHEN TOOK INTO EXILE HE <OBJ.> JECONIAH [THE] SON OF JEHOIAKIM [THE] KING OF JUDAH FROM JERUSALEM BABYLON TOWARDS AND <OBJ.> ALL [THE] NOBLES OF JUDAH AND JERUSALEM
20 which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did not take when he carried Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon, along with all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem.
21 FOR THUS HE SAYS YAHWEH OF HOSTS [THE] GOD OF ISRAEL ON THE ARTICLES WHICH REMAIN [THE] HOUSE OF YAHWEH AND [THE] HOUSE OF [THE] KING OF JUDAH AND JERUSALEM
21 Yes, this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says about the articles that remain in the house of the LORD, in the palace of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem:
22 BABYLON TOWARDS THEY WILL BE TAKEN AND THERE <TOWARDS> THEY WILL REMAIN UNTIL [THE] DAY GIVE ATTENTION TO I <OBJ.> THEM [THE] UTTERANCE OF YAHWEH AND I WILL BRING UP THEM AND I WILL BRING BACK THEM TO THE PLACE <THE> THIS
22 ‘They will be carried to Babylon and will remain there until the day I attend to them again declares the LORD. ‘Then I will bring them back and restore them to this place.’”
