The sin
of Judah
is written
with a pen
of iron,
and with the point
of a diamond:
it is graven
upon the table
of their heart,
and upon the horns
of your altars;
Whilst their children
remember
their altars
and their groves
by the green
trees
upon the high
hills.
O my mountain
in the field,
I will give
thy substance
and all thy treasures
to the spoil,
and thy high places
for sin,
throughout all thy borders.
And thou, even thyself, shalt discontinue
from thine heritage
that I gave
thee; and I will cause thee to serve
thine enemies
in the land
which thou knowest
not: for ye have kindled
a fire
in mine anger,
which shall burn
for
ever.
Thus saith
the LORD;
Cursed
be the man
that trusteth
in man,
and maketh
flesh
his arm,
and whose heart
departeth
from the LORD.
For he shall be like the heath
in the desert,
and shall not see
when good
cometh;
but shall inhabit
the parched places
in the wilderness,
in a salt
land
and not inhabited.

Blessed
is the man
that trusteth
in the LORD,
and whose hope
the LORD
is.
For he shall be as a tree
planted
by the waters,
and that spreadeth out
her roots
by the river,
and shall not see
when heat
cometh,
but her leaf
shall be green;
and shall not be careful
in the year
of drought,
neither shall cease
from yielding
fruit.

The heart
is deceitful
above all things, and desperately wicked:
who can know
it?
I the LORD
search
the heart,
I try
the reins,
even to give
every man
according to his ways,
and according to the fruit
of his doings.
As the partridge
sitteth
on eggs, and hatcheth
them not; so he that getteth
riches,
and not by right,
shall leave
them in the midst
of his days,
and at his end
shall be a fool.

O LORD,
the hope
of Israel,
all that forsake
thee shall be ashamed,
and they that depart
from me
shall be written
in the earth,
because they have forsaken
the LORD,
the fountain
of living
waters.
Heal
me, O LORD,
and I shall be healed;
save
me, and I shall be saved:
for thou art my praise.
Behold, they say
unto me, Where is the word
of the LORD?
let it come
now.
As for me, I have not hastened
from being a pastor
to follow
thee: neither have I desired
the woeful
day;
thou knowest:
that which came out
of my lips
was right before
thee.
Be not a terror
unto me: thou art my hope
in the day
of evil.
Let them be confounded
that persecute
me, but let not me be confounded:
let them be dismayed,
but let not me be dismayed:
bring
upon them the day
of evil,
and destroy
them with double
destruction.

Thus said
the LORD
unto me; Go
and stand
in the gate
of the children
of the people,
whereby the kings
of Judah
come in,
and by the which they go out,
and in all the gates
of Jerusalem;
proceed

And say
unto them, Hear
ye the word
of the LORD,
ye kings
of Judah,
and all Judah,
and all the inhabitants
of Jerusalem,
that enter in
by these gates:
Thus saith
the LORD;
Take heed
to yourselves,
and bear
no burden
on the sabbath
day,
nor bring
it in by the gates
of Jerusalem;
that which is borne
βαστάγματα

Neither carry forth
a burden
out of your houses
on the sabbath
day,
neither do
ye any work,
but hallow
ye the sabbath
day,
as I commanded
your fathers.
that which is borne

But they obeyed
not, neither inclined
their ear,
but made their neck
stiff,
that they might not hear,
nor receive
instruction.
And it shall come to pass, if ye diligently
hearken
unto me, saith
the LORD,
to bring
in no burden
through the gates
of this city
on the sabbath
day,
but hallow
the sabbath
day,
to do
no
work
therein;
that which is borne
βαστάγματα

Then shall there enter
into the gates
of this city
kings
and princes
sitting
upon the throne
of David,
riding
in chariots
and on horses,
they, and their princes,
the men
of Judah,
and the inhabitants
of Jerusalem:
and this city
shall remain
for ever.

And they shall come

and from the land

and from the plain,
and from the mountains,
and from the south,
bringing

and sacrifices,
and meat offerings,
and incense,
and bringing
sacrifices of praise,
unto the house
of the LORD.

But if ye will not hearken

even entering in

on the sabbath

then will I kindle
a fire
in the gates
thereof, and it shall devour
the palaces
of Jerusalem,
and it shall not be quenched.
