V.1 The words 1697 of Jeremiah 3414 the son 1121 of Hilkiah, 2518 of the priests 3548 that [were] in Anathoth 6068 in the land 776 of Benjamin: 1144

1:2 To whom the word 1697 of the LORD 3068 came in the days 3117 of Josiah 2977 the son 1121 of Amon 526 king 4428 of Judah, 3063 in the thirteenth 7969 6240 year 8141 of his reign. 4427-2

1:3 It came also in the days 3117 of Jehoiakim 3079 the son 1121 of Josiah 2977 king 4428 of Judah, 3063 unto the end 8552-2 of the eleventh 6249 6240 year 8141 of Zedekiah 6667 the son 1121 of Josiah 2977 king 4428 of Judah, 3063 unto the carrying away of Jerusalem 3389 captive 1540-2 in the fifth 2549 month. 2320

1:4 Then the word 1697 of the LORD 3068 came unto me, saying, 559-2

1:5 Before 2962 I formed 3335-4 thee in the belly 990 I knew 3045-1 thee; and before 2962 thou camest forth 3318-4 out of the womb 7358 I sanctified 6942-52 thee, [and] I ordained 5414-1 thee a prophet 5030 unto the nations. 1471

1:6 Then said 559-4 I, Ah, 162 Lord 136 GOD! 3069 behold, I cannot 3808 3045-1 speak: 1696-15 for I [am] a child. 5288

1:7 But the LORD 3068 said 559-4 unto me, Say 559-4 not, I [am] a child: 5288 for thou shalt go 3212-4 to all that I shall send 7971-4 thee, and whatsoever I command 6680-17 thee thou shalt speak. 1696-17

1:8 Be not afraid 3372-4 of their faces: 6440 for I [am] with thee to deliver 5337-53 thee, saith 5002-7 the LORD. 3068

1:9 Then the LORD 3068 put forth 7971-4 his hand, 3027 and touched 5060-55 my mouth. 6310 And the LORD 3068 said 559-4 unto me, Behold, I have put 5414-1 my words 1697 in thy mouth. 6310

1:10 See, 7200-3 I have this day 3117 set 6485-52 thee over the nations 1471 and over the kingdoms, 4467 to root out, 5428-2 and to pull down, 5422-2 and to destroy, 6-53 and to throw down, 2040-2 to build, 1129-2 and to plant. 5193-2

1:11 Moreover the word 1697 of the LORD 3068 came unto me, saying, 559-2 Jeremiah, 3414 what seest 7200-6 thou? And I said, 559-4 I see 7200-6 a rod 4731 of an almond tree. 8247

1:12 Then said 559-4 the LORD 3068 unto me, Thou hast well 3190-52 seen: 7200-2 for I will hasten 8245-6 my word 1697 to perform 6213-2 it.

1:13 And the word 1697 of the LORD 3068 came unto me the second time, 8145 saying, 559-2 What seest 7200-6 thou? And I said, 559-4 I see 7200-6 a seething 5301-7 pot; 5518 and the face 6440 thereof [is] toward 6440 the north. 6828

1:14 Then the LORD 3068 said 559-4 unto me, Out of the north 6828 an evil 7451 shall break forth 6605-11 upon all the inhabitants 3427-6 of the land. 776

1:15 For, lo, I will call 7121-6 all the families 4940 of the kingdoms 4467 of the north, 6828 saith 5002-7 the LORD; 3068 and they shall come, 935-1 and they shall set 5414-1 every one 376 his throne 3678 at the entering 6607 of the gates 8179 of Jerusalem, 3389 and against all the walls 2346 thereof round about, 5439 and against all the cities 5892 of Judah. 3063

1:16 And I will utter 1696-14 my judgments 4941 against them touching 5921 all their wickedness, 7451 who have forsaken 5800-1 me, and have burned incense 6999-17 unto other 312 gods, 430 and worshipped 7812-101 the works 4639 of their own hands. 3027

1:17 Thou therefore gird up 247-4 thy loins, 4975 and arise, 6965-1 and speak 1696-14 unto them all that I command 6680-17 thee: be not dismayed 2865-11 at their faces, 6440 lest I confound 2865-55 thee before 6440 them.

1:18 For, behold, I 589 have made 5414-1 thee this day 3117 a defenced 4013 city, 5892 and an iron 1270 pillar, 5982 and brasen 5178 walls 2346 against the whole land, 776 against the kings 4428 of Judah, 3063 against the princes 8269 thereof, against the priests 3548 thereof, and against the people 5971 of the land. 776
