Jeremiah Chapter 36 - King James Strong Number Version

1: And it came to pass in the fourth <H7243> year <H8141> of Jehoiakim <H3079> the son <H1121> of Josiah <H2977> king <H4428> of Judah, <H3063> [that] this word <H1697> came unto Jeremiah <H3414> from the LORD, <H3068> saying, <H0559>
2: Take <H3947> thee a roll <H4039> of a book, <H5612> and write <H3789> therein all the words <H1697> that I have spoken <H1696> unto thee against Israel, <H3478> and against Judah, <H3063> and against all the nations, <H1471> from the day <H3117> I spake <H1696> unto thee, from the days <H3117> of Josiah, <H2977> even unto this day. <H3117>
3: It may be that the house <H1004> of Judah <H3063> will hear <H8085> all the evil <H7451> which I purpose <H2803> to do <H6213> unto them; that they may return <H7725> every man <H0376> from his evil <H7451> way; <H1870> that I may forgive <H5545> their iniquity <H5771> and their sin. <H2403>
4: Then Jeremiah <H3414> called <H7121> Baruch <H1263> the son <H1121> of Neriah: <H5374> and Baruch <H1263> wrote <H3789> from the mouth <H6310> of Jeremiah <H3414> all the words <H1697> of the LORD, <H3068> which he had spoken <H1696> unto him, upon a roll <H4039> of a book. <H5612>
5: And Jeremiah <H3414> commanded <H6680> Baruch, <H1263> saying, <H0559> I [am] shut up; <H6113> I cannot <H3808> <H3201> go <H0935> into the house <H1004> of the LORD: <H3068>
6: Therefore go <H0935> thou, and read <H7121> in the roll, <H4039> which thou hast written <H3789> from my mouth, <H6310> the words <H1697> of the LORD <H3068> in the ears <H0241> of the people <H5971> in the LORD'S <H3068> house <H1004> upon the fasting <H6685> day: <H3117> and also thou shalt read <H7121> them in the ears <H0241> of all Judah <H3063> that come out <H0935> of their cities. <H5892>
7: It may be they will present <H5307> their supplication <H8467> before <H6440> the LORD, <H3068> and will return <H7725> every one <H0376> from his evil <H7451> way: <H1870> for great <H1419> [is] the anger <H0639> and the fury <H2534> that the LORD <H3068> hath pronounced <H1696> against this people. <H5971>
8: And Baruch <H1263> the son <H1121> of Neriah <H5374> did <H6213> according to all that Jeremiah <H3414> the prophet <H5030> commanded <H6680> him, reading <H7121> in the book <H5612> the words <H1697> of the LORD <H3068> in the LORD'S <H3068> house. <H1004>
9: And it came to pass 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] they proclaimed <H7121> a fast <H6685> before <H6440> the LORD <H3068> to all the people <H5971> in Jerusalem, <H3389> and to all the people <H5971> that came <H0935> from the cities <H5892> of Judah <H3063> unto Jerusalem. <H3389>
10: Then read <H7121> Baruch <H1263> in the book <H5612> the words <H1697> of Jeremiah <H3414> in the house <H1004> of the LORD, <H3068> in the chamber <H3957> of Gemariah <H1587> the son <H1121> of Shaphan <H8227> the scribe, <H5608> in the higher <H5945> court, <H2691> at the entry <H6607> of the new <H2319> gate <H8179> of the LORD'S <H3068> house, <H1004> in the ears <H0241> of all the people. <H5971>
11: When Michaiah <H4321> the son <H1121> of Gemariah, <H1587> the son <H1121> of Shaphan, <H8227> had heard <H8085> out of the book <H5612> all the words <H1697> of the LORD, <H3068>
12: Then he went down <H3381> into the king's <H4428> house, <H1004> into the scribe's <H5608> chamber: <H3957> and, lo, all the princes <H8269> sat <H3427> there, [even] Elishama <H0476> the scribe, <H5608> and Delaiah <H1806> the son <H1121> of Shemaiah, <H8098> and Elnathan <H0494> the son <H1121> of Achbor, <H5907> and Gemariah <H1587> the son <H1121> of Shaphan, <H8227> and Zedekiah <H6667> the son <H1121> of Hananiah, <H2608> and all the princes. <H8269>
13: Then Michaiah <H4321> declared <H5046> unto them all the words <H1697> that he had heard, <H8085> when Baruch <H1263> read <H7121> the book <H5612> in the ears <H0241> of the people. <H5971>
14: Therefore all the princes <H8269> sent <H7971> Jehudi <H3065> the son <H1121> of Nethaniah, <H5418> the son <H1121> of Shelemiah, <H8018> the son <H1121> of Cushi, <H3569> unto Baruch, <H1263> saying, <H0559> Take <H3947> in thine hand <H3027> the roll <H4039> wherein thou hast read <H7121> in the ears <H0241> of the people, <H5971> and come. <H3212> So Baruch <H1263> the son <H1121> of Neriah <H5374> took <H3947> the roll <H4039> in his hand, <H3027> and came <H0935> unto them.
15: And they said <H0559> unto him, Sit down <H3427> now, and read <H7121> it in our ears. <H0241> So Baruch <H1263> read <H7121> [it] in their ears. <H0241>
16: Now it came to pass, when they had heard <H8085> all the words, <H1697> they were afraid <H6342> both <H0413> one <H0376> and other, <H7453> and said <H0559> unto Baruch, <H1263> We will surely <H5046> tell <H5046> the king <H4428> of all these words. <H1697>
17: And they asked <H7592> Baruch, <H1263> saying, <H0559> Tell <H5046> us now, How didst thou write <H3789> all these words <H1697> at his mouth? <H6310>
18: Then Baruch <H1263> answered <H0559> them, He pronounced <H7121> all these words <H1697> unto me with his mouth, <H6310> and I wrote <H3789> [them] with ink <H1773> in the book. <H5612>
19: Then said <H0559> the princes <H8269> unto Baruch, <H1263> Go, <H3212> hide <H5641> thee, thou and Jeremiah; <H3414> and let no man <H0376> know <H3045> where <H0375> ye be.
20: And they went in <H0935> to the king <H4428> into the court, <H2691> but they laid up <H6485> the roll <H4039> in the chamber <H3957> of Elishama <H0476> the scribe, <H5608> and told <H5046> all the words <H1697> in the ears <H0241> of the king. <H4428>
21: So the king <H4428> sent <H7971> Jehudi <H3065> to fetch <H3947> the roll: <H4039> and he took <H3947> it out of Elishama <H0476> the scribe's <H5608> chamber. <H3957> And Jehudi <H3065> read <H7121> it in the ears <H0241> of the king, <H4428> and in the ears <H0241> of all the princes <H8269> which stood <H5975> beside <H5921> the king. <H4428>
22: Now the king <H4428> sat <H3427> in the winterhouse <H1004> <H2779> in the ninth <H8671> month: <H2320> and [there was a fire] on the hearth <H0254> burning <H1197> before <H6440> him.
23: And it came to pass, [that] when Jehudi <H3065> had read <H7121> three <H7969> or four <H0702> leaves, <H1817> he cut <H7167> it with the penknife, <H8593> <H5608> and cast <H7993> [it] into the fire <H0784> that [was] on the hearth, <H0254> until all the roll <H4039> was consumed <H8552> in the fire <H0784> that [was] on the hearth. <H0254>
24: Yet they were not afraid, <H6342> nor rent <H7167> their garments, <H0899> [neither] the king, <H4428> nor any of his servants <H5650> that heard <H8085> all these words. <H1697>
25: Nevertheless Elnathan <H0494> and Delaiah <H1806> and Gemariah <H1587> had made intercession <H6293> to the king <H4428> that he would not burn <H8313> the roll: <H4039> but he would not hear <H8085> them.
26: But the king <H4428> commanded <H6680> Jerahmeel <H3396> the son <H1121> of Hammelech, <H4428> <H4429> and Seraiah <H8304> the son <H1121> of Azriel, <H5837> and Shelemiah <H8018> the son <H1121> of Abdeel, <H5655> to take <H3947> Baruch <H1263> the scribe <H5608> and Jeremiah <H3414> the prophet: <H5030> but the LORD <H3068> hid <H5641> them.
27: Then the word <H1697> of the LORD <H3068> came to Jeremiah, <H3414> after <H0310> that the king <H4428> had burned <H8313> the roll, <H4039> and the words <H1697> which Baruch <H1263> wrote <H3789> at the mouth <H6310> of Jeremiah, <H3414> saying, <H0559>
28: Take <H3947> thee again <H7725> another <H0312> roll, <H4039> and write <H3789> in it all the former <H7223> words <H1697> that were in the first <H7223> roll, <H4039> which Jehoiakim <H3079> the king <H4428> of Judah <H3063> hath burned. <H8313>
29: And thou shalt say <H0559> to Jehoiakim <H3079> king <H4428> of Judah, <H3063> Thus saith <H0559> the LORD; <H3068> Thou hast burned <H8313> this roll, <H4039> saying, <H0559> Why hast thou written <H3789> therein, saying, <H0559> The king <H4428> of Babylon <H0894> shall certainly <H0935> come <H0935> and destroy <H7843> this land, <H0776> and shall cause to cease <H7673> from thence man <H0120> and beast? <H0929>
30: Therefore thus saith <H0559> the LORD <H3068> of Jehoiakim <H3079> king <H4428> of Judah; <H3063> He shall have none to sit <H3427> upon the throne <H3678> of David: <H1732> and his dead body <H5038> shall be cast out <H7993> in the day <H3117> to the heat, <H2721> and in the night <H3915> to the frost. <H7140>
31: And I will punish <H6485> him and his seed <H2233> and his servants <H5650> for their iniquity; <H5771> and I will bring <H0935> upon them, and upon the inhabitants <H3427> of Jerusalem, <H3389> and upon the men <H0376> of Judah, <H3063> all the evil <H7451> that I have pronounced <H1696> against them; but they hearkened <H8085> not.
32: Then took <H3947> Jeremiah <H3414> another <H0312> roll, <H4039> and gave <H5414> it to Baruch <H1263> the scribe, <H5608> the son <H1121> of Neriah; <H5374> who wrote <H3789> therein from the mouth <H6310> of Jeremiah <H3414> all the words <H1697> of the book <H5612> which Jehoiakim <H3079> king <H4428> of Judah <H3063> had burned <H8313> in the fire: <H0784> and there were added <H3254> besides unto them many <H7227> like <H1992> words. <H1697>
