29 Is not My word like a fire? Says vuvh; and like a
hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?
30 Therefore, see, I am against the neviim, says vuvh, that
steal My words every one from his neighbor.
31 See, I am against the neviim, says vuvh, that use their
tongues, and say, He says.
32 See, I am against them that prophesy false dreams,
says vuvh, and those who tell them, and cause My people
to go astray by their lies, and by their reckless boasting;
yet I sent them not, nor commanded them: therefore they
shall not profit this people at all, says vuvh.
33 And when this people, or the navi, or a kohen, shall ask
you, saying, What is the burden of vuvh? You shall then say
to them, What burden? I will even forsake you, says vuvh.
34 And as for the navi, and the kohen, and the people,
that shall say, The burden of vuvh, I will even punish that
man and his bayit.
35 This shall you say each person to his neighbor, and
each person to his brother, What has vuvh answered?
And, What has vuvh spoken?
36 And the burden of vuvh shall you mention no more: for
every man's word shall be his own burden; for you have
perverted the words of the living Elohim, vuvh tzevaoth
our Elohim.
37 This shall you say to the navi, What has vuvh
answered you? And, What has vuvh spoken to you?
38 But since you say, The burden of vuvh; 2133 therefore
this says vuvh; Because you say this word, The burden of
vuvh, and I have sent to you, saying, You shall not say,
The burden of vuvh;
39 Therefore, see, I, even I, will utterly forget you, and I
will forsake you, and the city that I gave you and your
ahvot, and cast you out of My presence:
40 And I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you,
and an everlasting shame, that shall not be forgotten.
vuvh showed me, and, see, two baskets of figs were
24
set before the Hekal of vuvh, after Nevuchadnetzar
melech of Bavel had carried away into exile Yekonyahu,
the son of Yahuyakim melech of Yahudah, and the
leaders of Yahudah with the craftsmen and smiths, from
Yahrushalayim, and had brought them to Bavel.
2 One basket had very tov figs, even like the figs that are
first ripe: and the other basket had very spoiled figs,
which could not be eaten, they were so bad.
3 Then said vuvh to me, What do you see, Yirmeyahu?
And I said, Figs; the tov figs, very tov; and the bad, very
bad, so that they cannot be eaten, they are so bad.
4 Again the word of vuvh came to me, saying,
5 This says vuvh, the Elohim of Yisrael; Like these tov
figs, so will I acknowledge them that are carried away
from the exiles of Yahudah, whom I have sent out of this
place into the land of the Chaldeans for their tov.
6 For I will set My eyes upon them for tov, and I will
bring them again to this land: and I will build them, and
not pull them down; and I will plant them, and not pluck
them up.
7 And I will give them a lev to know Me, that I am vuvh:
and they shall be My people, and I will be their Elohim:
for they shall make teshuvah to Me with their whole lev.
8 And as for the evil figs, which cannot be eaten, they are
so evil; surely this says vuvh, So will I give Tzidkiyahu the
melech of Yahudah, and his leaders, and the residue of
YIRMEYAHU - JEREMIAH
- 320 -
Yahrushalayim, that remain in this land, and them that
dwell in the land of Mitzrayim:
9 And I will deliver them to be removed into all the
malchutim of the earth for their harm, to be a reproach
and a byword, a taunt and a curse word, in all the places
where I shall drive them.
10 And I will send the sword, the famine, and the
pestilence, among them, until they are consumed from off
the land that I gave to them and to their ahvot.

The word that came to Yirmeyahu concerning all the
people of Yahudah in the fourth year of Yahuyakim the
son of Yoshiyahu melech of Yahudah, that was the first
year of Nevuchadnetzar melech of Bavel;
2 That which Yirmeyahu the navi spoke to all the people
of Yahudah, and to all the inhabitants of Yahrushalayim,
saying,
3 From the thirteenth year of Yoshiyahu the son of Amon
melech of Yahudah, even to this day, that is the twentythird
year, the word of vuvh has come to me, and I have
spoken to you, rising early and speaking; but you have
not listened.
4 And vuvh has sent to you all His avadim the neviim,
rising early and sending them; but you have not listened,
nor inclined your ear to hear.
5 They said, Teshuvah again now everyone from his evil
derech, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the
land that vuvh has given to you and to your ahvot
le-olam-va-ed:
6 And go not after other elohim to serve them, and to
worship them, and provoke Me not to anger with the
works of your hands; and I will do you no harm.
7 Yet you have not listened to Me, says vuvh; that you
might provoke Me to anger with the works of your hands
to your own harm.
8 Therefore this says vuvh tzevaoth; Because you have
not heard My words,
9 See, I will send and take all the mishpachot of the north,
says vuvh, and Nevuchadnetzar the melech of Bavel, My
eved, and will bring them against this land, and against
the inhabitants of it, and against all these nations all
around and will utterly destroy them, and make them an
astonishment, and a hissing, and everlasting ruins.
10 Moreover I will take from them the voice of gilah, and
the voice of simcha, the voice of the bridegroom, and the
voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the
light of the candle.
11 And this whole land shall be a desolation, and a
waste; and these nations shall serve the melech of Bavel
seventy years.
12 And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are
accomplished, that I will punish the melech of Bavel, and
that nation, says vuvh, for their iniquity, and the land of
the Chaldeans, and will make it everlasting ruins.
13 And I will bring upon that land all My words, which I
have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this
scroll, which Yirmeyahu has prophesied against all the
nations.
14 For many nations and great melechim shall enslave
them also: and I will repay them according to their deeds,
and according to the works of their own hands.
15 For this says vuvh Elohim of Yisrael to me; Take the
wine cup of this wrath at My hand, and cause all the
