|
12. Then the word H1697 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 unto H413 Jeremiah H3414 the prophet , after that H310 Hananiah H2608 the prophet H5030 had broken H7665 H853 the yoke H4133 from off H4480 H5921 the neck H6677 of the prophet H5030 Jeremiah H3414 , saying H559 ,
|
|
13. "Go and tell Hananiah, 'The Lord says, "You have broken the cross-bars of wood, but you have made bars of iron in their place."
|
13. Go H1980 and tell H559 H413 Hananiah H2608 , saying H559 , Thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 ; Thou hast broken H7665 the yokes H4133 of wood H6086 ; but thou shalt make H6213 for H8478 them yokes H4133 of iron H1270 .
|
|
14. For the Lord of All, the God of Israel, says, "I have put the cross-bar of iron on the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. And they will serve him. I have given him the animals of the field also." ' ''
|
14. For H3588 thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635 , the God H430 of Israel H3478 ; I have put H5414 a yoke H5923 of iron H1270 upon H5921 the neck H6677 of all H3605 these H428 nations H1471 , that they may serve H5647 H853 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894 ; and they shall serve H5647 him : and I have given H5414 him H853 the beasts H2416 of the field H7704 also H1571 .
|
|
15. Then Jeremiah who spoke for God said to Hananiah who told what would happen, "Listen, Hananiah, the Lord has not sent you. And you have made these people trust in a lie.
|
15. Then said H559 the prophet H5030 Jeremiah H3414 unto H413 Hananiah H2608 the prophet H5030 , Hear H8085 now H4994 , Hananiah H2608 ; The LORD H3068 hath not H3808 sent H7971 thee ; but thou H859 makest H853 this H2008 people H5971 to trust H982 in H5921 a lie H8267 .
|
|
16. So the Lord says, 'See, I am about to take you from the earth. This year you are going to die, because you have spoken against the right and power of the Lord.' "

16. Therefore H3651 thus H3541 saith H559 the LORD H3068 ; Behold H2009 , I will cast H7971 thee from off H4480 H5921 the face H6440 of the earth H127 : this year H8141 thou H859 shalt die H4191 , because H3588 thou hast taught H1696 rebellion H5627 against H413 the LORD H3068 .
