Ieremiah 4

1 God calleth Israel by his promise. 3 He exhorteth Judah to repentance by fearful judgments. 19 A grievous lamentation for the miseries of Judah.

 4:1 ¶ If x518 thou wilt returne, 7725 z8799 O Israel, 3478 saith 5002 z8803 the LORD, 3068 returne 7725 z8799 vnto x413 mee: and if x518 thou wilt put away 5493 z8686 thine abominations 8251 out of my sight, 6440 x4480 then shalt thou not x3808 remoue. 5110 z8799

 4:2 And thou shalt sweare, 7650 z8738 The LORD 3068 liueth, 2416 in Trueth, 571 in Iudgement, 4941 and in Righteousnes, 6666 and the nations 1471 shall blesse y1288 z8694 themselues x1288 in him, and in him shall they glorie. 1984 z8691

 4:3 ¶ For x3588 thus x3541 saith 559 z8804 the LORD 3068 to the men 376 of Iudah 3063 and Ierusalem, 3389 Breake vp 5214 z8798 your fallow ground, 5215 and sow 2232 z8799 not x408 among x413 thornes. 6975

 4:4 Circumcise y4135 z8734 your selues x4135 to the LORD, 3068 and take away 5493 z8685 the foreskinnes 6190 of your heart, 3824 ye men 376 of Iudah, 3063 and inhabitants 3427 z8802 of Ierusalem, 3389 lest x6435 my furie 2534 come forth 3318 z8799 like fire, 784 and burne 1197 z8804 that none x369 can quench 3518 z8764 [it], because 6440 x4480 of the euill 7455 of your doings. 4611

 4:5 Declare 5046 z8685 ye in Iudah, 3063 and publish 8085 z8685 in Ierusalem, 3389 and say, 559 z8798 Blow 8628 z8798 yee the Trumpet 7782 in the land: 776 cry, 7121 z8798 gather together, 4390 z8761 and say, 559 z8798 Assemble y622 z8734 your selues, x622 and let vs goe 935 z8799 into x413 the defenced 4013 cities. 5892

 4:6 Set vp 5375 z8798 the standards 5251 toward Zion: 6726 retyre, 5756 z8685 stay 5975 z8799 not; x408 for x3588 I x595 will bring 935 z8688 euil 7451 from the North, 6828 x4480 and a great 1419 destruction. 7667

 4:7 The Lion 738 is come vp 5927 z8804 from his thicket, 5441 x4480 and the destroyer 7843 z8688 of the Gentiles 1471 is on his way; 5265 z8804 hee is gone foorth 3318 z8804 from his place 4725 x4480 to make 7760 z8800 thy land 776 desolate, 8047 [and] thy cities 5892 shall be layed waste, 5327 z8799 without x4480 x369 an inhabitant. 3427 z8802

 4:8 For x5921 this x2063 gird 2296 z8798 you with sackcloth; 8242 lament 5594 z8798 and howle: 3213 z8685 for x3588 the fierce 2740 anger 639 of the LORD 3068 is not x3808 turned backe 7725 z8804 from x4480 vs.

 4:9 And it shall come to passe x1961 at that x1931 day, 3117 saith 5002 z8803 the LORD, 3068 that the heart 3820 of the King 4428 shall perish, 6 z8799 and the heart 3820 of the Princes: 8269 and the Priests 3548 shalbe astonished, 8074 z8738 & the prophets 5030 shall wonder. 8539 z8799

 4:10 Then said 559 z8799 I, Ah 162 Lord 136 GOD, 3069 surely 403 thou hast greatly y5377 z8687 deceiued 5377 z8689 this x2088 people, 5971 and Ierusalem, 3389 saying, 559 z8800 Ye shall haue x1961 peace, 7965 whereas the sword 2719 reacheth 5060 z8804 vnto x5704 the soule. 5315

 4:11 At that x1931 time 6256 shall it bee said 559 z8735 to this x2088 people, 5971 and to Ierusalem; 3389 A dry 6703 winde 7307 of the high places 8205 in the wildernes 4057 toward y1870 the daughter 1323 of my people, 5971 not x3808 to fanne, 2219 z8800 nor x3808 to cleanse. 1305 z8687

 4:12 [Euen] a full 4392 winde 7307 from those x4480 x428 [places] shall come 935 z8799 vnto mee: now x6258 also x1571 will I x589 giue 1696 z8762 sentence 4941 against them.

 4:13 Behold, x2009 hee shall come vp 5927 z8799 as cloudes, 6051 and his charets 4818 [shall bee] as a whirlewinde: 5492 his horses 5483 are swifter 7043 z8804 then Eagles: 5404 x4480 woe 188 vnto vs, for x3588 wee are spoiled. 7703 z8795

 4:14 O Ierusalem, 3389 wash 3526 z8761 thine heart 3820 from wickednesse, 7451 x4480 that x4616 thou mayest bee saued: 3467 z8735 how long x5704 x4970 shall thy vaine 205 thoughts 4284 lodge 3885 z8686 within 7130 thee?

 4:15 For x3588 a voice 6963 declareth 5046 z8688 from Dan, 1835 x4480 and publisheth 8085 z8688 affliction 205 from mount 2022 x4480 Ephraim. 669

 4:16 Make ye mention 2142 z8685 to the nations, 1471 behold, x2009 publish 8085 z8685 against x5921 Ierusalem, 3389 [that] watchers 5341 z8802 come 935 z8802 from a farre 4801 countrey, 776 x4480 and giue out 5414 z8799 their voice 6963 against x5921 the cities 5892 of Iudah. 3063

 4:17 As keepers 8104 z8802 of a fielde 7704 are x1961 they against x5921 her round about; 5439 x4480 because x3588 shee hath bene rebellious 4784 z8804 against mee, saith 5002 z8803 the LORD. 3068

 4:18 Thy way 1870 and thy doings 4611 haue procured 6213 z8804 these x428 things vnto thee, this x2063 [is] thy wickednes 7451 because x3588 it is bitter, 4751 because x3588 it reacheth 5060 z8804 vnto x5704 thine heart. 3820

 4:19 ¶ My bowels, 4578 my bowels, 4578 I am pained 3176 y2342 z8799 z8675 z8686 at my very 7023 heart, 3820 my heart 3820 maketh a noise 1993 z8802 in mee, I cannot x3808 hold my peace, 2790 z8686 because x3588 thou hast heard, 8085 z8804 O my soule, 5315 the sound 6963 of the Trumpet, 7782 the alarme 8643 of warre. 4421

 4:20 Destruction 7667 vpon x5921 destruction 7667 is cried, 7121 z8738 for x3588 the whole x3605 land 776 is spoiled: 7703 z8795 suddenly 6597 are my tents 168 spoiled, 7703 z8795 [and] my curtaines 3407 in a moment. 7281

 4:21 How long x5704 x4970 shal I see 7200 z8799 the standard 5251 [and] heare 8085 z8799 the sound 6963 of the Trumpet? 7782

 4:22 For x3588 my people 5971 [is] foolish, 191 they haue not x3808 knowen 3045 z8804 me, they x1992 are sottish 5530 children, 1121 and they x1992 haue none x3808 vnderstanding: 995 z8737 they x1992 are wise 2450 to doe euill, 7489 z8687 but to doe good 3190 z8687 they haue no x3808 knowledge. 3045 z8804

 4:23 I beheld 7200 z8804 x853 the earth, 776 and loe, x2009 it [was] without forme 8414 and void: 922 and the heauens, 8064 and they [had] no x369 light. 216

 4:24 I beheld 7200 z8804 the mountaines, 2022 and loe x2009 they trembled, 7493 z8801 and all x3605 the hilles 1389 mooued lightly. 7043 z8701

 4:25 I behelde, 7200 z8804 and loe, x2009 [there was] no x369 man, 120 and all x3605 the birdes 5775 of the heauens 8064 were fled. 5074 z8804

 4:26 I beheld, 7200 z8804 and loe, x2009 the fruitfull place 3759 [was] a wildernesse, 4057 and all x3605 the cities 5892 thereof were broken downe 5422 z8738 at the presence 6440 x4480 of the LORD, 3068 [and] by x4480 x6440 his fierce 2740 anger. 639

 4:27 For x3588 thus x3541 hath the LORD 3068 said; 559 z8804 The whole x3605 land 776 shall be x1961 desolate; 8077 yet will I not x3808 make 6213 z8799 a full ende. 3617

 4:28 For x5921 this x2063 shall the earth 776 mourne, 56 z8799 and the heauens 8064 aboue 4605 x4480 be blacke: 6937 z8804 because x5921 x3588 I haue spoken 1696 z8765 [it], I haue purposed 2161 z8804 [it], and will not x3808 repent, 5162 z8738 neither x3808 will I turne backe 7725 z8799 from x4480 it.

 4:29 The whole x3605 citie 5892 shall flee, 1272 z8802 for the noise 6963 x4480 of the horsemen 6571 and bowmen, 7198 7411 z8802 they shall goe 935 z8804 into thickets, 5645 and climbe vp 5927 z8804 vpon the rockes: 3710 euery x3605 city 5892 shall be forsaken, 5800 z8803 and not x369 a man 376 dwell 3427 z8802 therein. 2004

 4:30 And when thou x859 art spoiled, 7703 z8803 what x4100 wilt thou doe? 6213 z8799 though x3588 thou clothest 3847 z8799 thy selfe with crimsin, 8144 though x3588 thou deckest 5710 z8799 thee with ornaments 5716 of golde, 2091 though x3588 thou rentest 7167 z8799 thy face 5869 with painting, 6320 in vaine 7723 shalt thou make thy selfe faire, 3302 z8691 thy louers 5689 z8802 will despise 3988 z8804 thee, they will seeke 1245 z8762 thy life. 5315

 4:31 For x3588 I haue heard 8085 z8804 a voice 6963 as of a woman in trauel, 2470 z8802 [and] the anguish 6869 as of her that bringeth foorth her first childe, 1069 z8688 the voice 6963 of the daughter 1323 of Zion, 6726 [that] bewaileth y3306 z8691 her selfe, x3306 [that] spreadeth 6566 z8762 her hands, 3709 [saying]; Woe 188 [is] me now, x4994 for x3588 my soule 5315 is wearied 5888 z8804 because of murderers. 2026 z8802
