Jeremiah Chapter 50 - King James Strong Number Version

1: The word <H1697> that the LORD <H3068> spake <H1696> against Babylon <H0894> [and] against the land <H0776> of the Chaldeans <H3778> by <H3027> Jeremiah <H3414> the prophet. <H5030>
2: Declare <H5046> ye among the nations, <H1471> and publish, <H8085> and set up <H5375> a standard; <H5251> publish, <H8085> [and] conceal <H3582> not: say, <H0559> Babylon <H0894> is taken, <H3920> Bel <H1078> is confounded, <H3001> Merodach <H4781> is broken in pieces; <H2865> her idols <H6091> are confounded, <H3001> her images <H1544> are broken in pieces. <H2865>
3: For out of the north <H6828> there cometh up <H5927> a nation <H1471> against her, which shall make <H7896> her land <H0776> desolate, <H8047> and none shall dwell <H3427> therein: they shall remove, <H5110> they shall depart, <H1980> both man <H0120> and beast. <H0929>
4: In those days, <H3117> and in that time, <H6256> saith <H5002> the LORD, <H3068> the children <H1121> of Israel <H3478> shall come, <H0935> they and the children <H1121> of Judah <H3063> together, <H3162> going <H1980> and weeping: <H1058> they shall go, <H3212> and seek <H1245> the LORD <H3068> their God. <H0430>
5: They shall ask <H7592> the way <H1870> to Zion <H6726> with their faces <H6440> thitherward, <H2008> [saying], Come, <H0935> and let us join <H3867> ourselves to the LORD <H3068> in a perpetual <H5769> covenant <H1285> [that] shall not be forgotten. <H7911>
6: My people <H5971> hath been lost <H0006> sheep: <H6629> their shepherds <H7462> have caused them to go astray, <H8582> they have turned them away <H7725> [on] the mountains: <H2022> they have gone <H1980> from mountain <H2022> to hill, <H1389> they have forgotten <H7911> their restingplace. <H7258>
7: All that found <H4672> them have devoured <H0398> them: and their adversaries <H6862> said, <H0559> We offend <H0816> not, because they have sinned <H2398> against the LORD, <H3068> the habitation <H5116> of justice, <H6664> even the LORD, <H3068> the hope <H4723> of their fathers. <H0001>
8: Remove <H5110> out of the midst <H8432> of Babylon, <H0894> and go forth <H3318> out of the land <H0776> of the Chaldeans, <H3778> and be as the he goats <H6260> before <H6440> the flocks. <H6629>
9: For, lo, I will raise <H5782> and cause to come up <H5927> against Babylon <H0894> an assembly <H6951> of great <H1419> nations <H1471> from the north <H6828> country: <H0776> and they shall set themselves in array <H6186> against her; from thence she shall be taken: <H3920> their arrows <H2671> [shall be] as of a mighty <H1368> expert <H7919> man; none shall return <H7725> in vain. <H7387>
10: And Chaldea <H3778> shall be a spoil: <H7998> all that spoil <H7997> her shall be satisfied, <H7646> saith <H5002> the LORD. <H3068>
11: Because ye were glad, <H8055> because ye rejoiced, <H5937> O ye destroyers <H8154> of mine heritage, <H5159> because ye are grown fat <H6335> as the heifer <H5697> at grass, <H1877> <H1758> and bellow <H6670> as bulls; <H0047>
12: Your mother <H0517> shall be sore <H3966> confounded; <H0954> she that bare <H3205> you shall be ashamed: <H2659> behold, the hindermost <H0319> of the nations <H1471> [shall be] a wilderness, <H4057> a dry <H6723> land, and a desert. <H6160>
13: Because of the wrath <H7110> of the LORD <H3068> it shall not be inhabited, <H3427> but it shall be wholly desolate: <H8077> every one that goeth <H5674> by Babylon <H0894> shall be astonished, <H8074> and hiss <H8319> at all her plagues. <H4347>
14: Put yourselves in array <H6186> against Babylon <H0894> round about: <H5439> all ye that bend <H1869> the bow, <H7198> shoot <H3034> at her, spare <H2550> no arrows: <H2671> for she hath sinned <H2398> against the LORD. <H3068>
15: Shout <H7321> against her round about: <H5439> she hath given <H5414> her hand: <H3027> her foundations <H0803> are fallen, <H5307> her walls <H2346> are thrown down: <H2040> for it [is] the vengeance <H5360> of the LORD: <H3068> take vengeance <H5358> upon her; as she hath done, <H6213> do <H6213> unto her.
16: Cut off <H3772> the sower <H2232> from Babylon, <H0894> and him that handleth <H8610> the sickle <H4038> in the time <H6256> of harvest: <H7105> for fear <H6440> of the oppressing <H3238> sword <H2719> they shall turn <H6437> every one <H0376> to his people, <H5971> and they shall flee <H5127> every one <H0376> to his own land. <H0776>
17: Israel <H3478> [is] a scattered <H6340> sheep; <H7716> the lions <H0738> have driven [him] away: <H5080> first <H7223> the king <H4428> of Assyria <H0804> hath devoured <H0398> him; and last <H0314> this Nebuchadrezzar <H5019> king <H4428> of Babylon <H0894> hath broken his bones. <H6105>
18: Therefore thus saith <H0559> the LORD <H3068> of hosts, <H6635> the God <H0430> of Israel; <H3478> Behold, I will punish <H6485> the king <H4428> of Babylon <H0894> and his land, <H0776> as I have punished <H6485> the king <H4428> of Assyria. <H0804>
19: And I will bring Israel <H3478> again <H7725> to his habitation, <H5116> and he shall feed <H7462> on Carmel <H3760> and Bashan, <H1316> and his soul <H5315> shall be satisfied <H7646> upon mount <H2022> Ephraim <H0669> and Gilead. <H1568>
20: In those days, <H3117> and in that time, <H6256> saith <H5002> the LORD, <H3068> the iniquity <H5771> of Israel <H3478> shall be sought for, <H1245> and [there shall be] none; and the sins <H2403> of Judah, <H3063> and they shall not be found: <H4672> for I will pardon <H5545> them whom I reserve. <H7604>
21: Go up <H5927> against the land <H0776> of Merathaim, <H4850> [even] against it, and against the inhabitants <H3427> of Pekod: <H6489> waste <H2717> and utterly destroy <H2763> after <H0310> them, saith <H5002> the LORD, <H3068> and do <H6213> according to all that I have commanded <H6680> thee.
22: A sound <H6963> of battle <H4421> [is] in the land, <H0776> and of great <H1419> destruction. <H7667>
23: How is the hammer <H6360> of the whole earth <H0776> cut asunder <H1438> and broken! <H7665> how is Babylon <H0894> become a desolation <H8047> among the nations! <H1471>
24: I have laid a snare <H3369> for thee, and thou art also taken, <H3920> O Babylon, <H0894> and thou wast not aware: <H3045> thou art found, <H4672> and also caught, <H8610> because thou hast striven <H1624> against the LORD. <H3068>
25: The LORD <H3068> hath opened <H6605> his armoury, <H0214> and hath brought forth <H3318> the weapons <H3627> of his indignation: <H2195> for this [is] the work <H4399> of the Lord <H0136> GOD <H3069> of hosts <H6635> in the land <H0776> of the Chaldeans. <H3778>
26: Come <H0935> against her from the utmost border, <H7093> open <H6605> her storehouses: <H3965> cast her up <H5549> as heaps, <H6194> and destroy her utterly: <H2763> let nothing of her be left. <H7611>
27: Slay <H2717> all her bullocks; <H6499> let them go down <H3381> to the slaughter: <H2874> woe <H1945> unto them! for their day <H3117> is come, <H0935> the time <H6256> of their visitation. <H6486>
28: The voice <H6963> of them that flee <H5127> and escape out <H6405> of the land <H0776> of Babylon, <H0894> to declare <H5046> in Zion <H6726> the vengeance <H5360> of the LORD <H3068> our God, <H0430> the vengeance <H5360> of his temple. <H1964>
29: Call together <H8085> the archers <H7228> against Babylon: <H0894> all ye that bend <H1869> the bow, <H7198> camp <H2583> against it round about; <H5439> let none thereof escape: <H6413> recompense <H7999> her according to her work; <H6467> according to all that she hath done, <H6213> do <H6213> unto her: for she hath been proud <H2102> against the LORD, <H3068> against the Holy One <H6918> of Israel. <H3478>
30: Therefore shall her young men <H0970> fall <H5307> in the streets, <H7339> and all her men <H0582> of war <H4421> shall be cut off <H1826> in that day, <H3117> saith <H5002> the LORD. <H3068>
31: Behold, I [am] against thee, [O thou] most proud, <H2087> saith <H5002> the Lord <H0136> GOD <H3069> of hosts: <H6635> for thy day <H3117> is come, <H0935> the time <H6256> [that] I will visit <H6485> thee.
32: And the most proud <H2087> shall stumble <H3782> and fall, <H5307> and none shall raise him up: <H6965> and I will kindle <H3341> a fire <H0784> in his cities, <H5892> and it shall devour <H0398> all round about <H5439> him.
33: Thus saith <H0559> the LORD <H3068> of hosts; <H6635> The children <H1121> of Israel <H3478> and the children <H1121> of Judah <H3063> [were] oppressed <H6231> together: <H3162> and all that took them captives <H7617> held <H2388> them fast; they refused <H3985> to let them go. <H7971>
34: Their Redeemer <H1350> [is] strong; <H2389> the LORD <H3068> of hosts <H6635> [is] his name: <H8034> he shall throughly <H7378> plead <H7378> their cause, <H7379> that he may give rest <H7280> to the land, <H0776> and disquiet <H7264> the inhabitants <H3427> of Babylon. <H0894>
35: A sword <H2719> [is] upon the Chaldeans, <H3778> saith <H5002> the LORD, <H3068> and upon the inhabitants <H3427> of Babylon, <H0894> and upon her princes, <H8269> and upon her wise <H2450> [men].
36: A sword <H2719> [is] upon the liars; <H0907> and they shall dote: <H2973> a sword <H2719> [is] upon her mighty men; <H1368> and they shall be dismayed. <H2865>
37: A sword <H2719> [is] upon their horses, <H5483> and upon their chariots, <H7393> and upon all the mingled people <H6153> that [are] in the midst <H8432> of her; and they shall become as women: <H0802> a sword <H2719> [is] upon her treasures; <H0214> and they shall be robbed. <H0962>
38: A drought <H2721> [is] upon her waters; <H4325> and they shall be dried up: <H3001> for it [is] the land <H0776> of graven images, <H6456> and they are mad <H1984> upon [their] idols. <H0367>
39: Therefore the wild beasts of the desert <H6728> with the wild beasts of the islands <H0338><H0339> shall dwell <H3427> [there], and the owls <H1323> <H3284> shall dwell <H3427> therein: and it shall be no more inhabited <H3427> for ever; <H5331> neither shall it be dwelt <H7931> in from generation <H1755> to generation. <H1755>
40: As God <H0430> overthrew <H4114> Sodom <H5467> and Gomorrah <H6017> and the neighbour <H7934> [cities] thereof, saith <H5002> the LORD; <H3068> [so] shall no man <H0376> abide <H3427> there, neither shall any son <H1121> of man <H0120> dwell <H1481> therein.
41: Behold, a people <H5971> shall come <H0935> from the north, <H6828> and a great <H1419> nation, <H1471> and many <H7227> kings <H4428> shall be raised up <H5782> from the coasts <H3411> of the earth. <H0776>
42: They shall hold <H2388> the bow <H7198> and the lance: <H3591> they [are] cruel, <H0394> and will not shew mercy: <H7355> their voice <H6963> shall roar <H1993> like the sea, <H3220> and they shall ride <H7392> upon horses, <H5483> [every one] put in array, <H6186> like a man <H0376> to the battle, <H4421> against thee, O daughter <H1323> of Babylon. <H0894>
43: The king <H4428> of Babylon <H0894> hath heard <H8085> the report <H8088> of them, and his hands <H3027> waxed feeble: <H7503> anguish <H6869> took hold <H2388> of him, [and] pangs <H2427> as of a woman in travail. <H3205>
44: Behold, he shall come up <H5927> like a lion <H0738> from the swelling <H1347> of Jordan <H3383> unto the habitation <H5116> of the strong: <H0386> but I will make them suddenly <H7280> run away <H7323> from her: and who [is] a chosen <H0977> [man, that] I may appoint <H6485> over her? for who [is] like me? and who will appoint me the time? <H3259> and who [is] that shepherd <H7462> that will stand <H5975> before <H6440> me?
45: Therefore hear <H8085> ye the counsel <H6098> of the LORD, <H3068> that he hath taken <H3289> against Babylon; <H0894> and his purposes, <H4284> that he hath purposed <H2803> against the land <H0776> of the Chaldeans: <H3778> Surely the least <H6810> of the flock <H6629> shall draw them out: <H5498> surely he shall make [their] habitation <H5116> desolate <H8074> with them.
46: At the noise <H6963> of the taking <H8610> of Babylon <H0894> the earth <H0776> is moved, <H7493> and the cry <H2201> is heard <H8085> among the nations. <H1471>
