Message at the Temple Gate

1

The wordh1697 that cameh1961 to Jeremiahh3414 from the LORDh3068, sayingh559,

2

aStandh5975 in the gateh8179 of the LORD'Sh3068 househ1004 and proclaimh7121 thereh8033 thish2088 wordh1697 and sayh559, `Hearh8085 the wordh1697 of the LORDh3068, allh3605 you of Judahh3063, who enterh935 by theseh428 gatesh8179 to worshiph7812 the LORDh3068!' "

3

Thush3541 saysh559 the LORDh3068 of hostsh6635, the Godh430 of Israelh3478, " aAmendh3190 your waysh1870 and your deedsh4611, and I will let you dwellh7931 in thish2088 placeh4725.

4

aDo not trusth982 in deceptiveh8267 wordsh1697, sayingh559, ` 1Thish1992a is the templeh1964 of the LORDh3068, the templeh1964 of the LORDh3068, the templeh1964 of the LORDh3068.'

5

"For  aifh518 you trulyh3190 amendh3190 your waysh1870 and your deedsh4611, ifh518 you trulyh6213a  bpracticeh6213a justiceh4941 betweenh996 a manh376 and his neighborh7453,

6

if you do not oppressh6231 the alienh1616, the  1 aorphanh3490, or the widowh490, and do not shedh8210  binnocenth5355a bloodh1818 in thish2088 placeh4725, norh3808  cwalkh1980 afterh310 otherh312 godsh430 to your own ruinh7451b,

7

then I will let you  adwellh7931 in thish2088 placeh4725, in the  blandh776 that I gaveh5414 to your fathersh1 foreverh4480h5769 and everh5769.

8

"Beholdh2009, you are trustingh982 in  adeceptiveh8267 wordsh1697 to noh1115 availh3276.

9

"Will you stealh1589, murderh7523, and commith5003 adulteryh5003 and swearh7650 falselyh8267, and  1 aofferh6999 sacrificesh6999 to Baalh1168a and walkh1980 afterh310  botherh312 godsh430 that you have not knownh3045,

10

then  acomeh935 and standh5975 beforeh6440 Me in  bthish2088 househ1004, whichh834 is calledh7121 by My nameh8034, and sayh559, `We are deliveredh5337!'--that you may doh6213a allh3605 theseh428 abominationsh8441?

11

"Has  athish2088 househ1004, whichh834 is calledh7121 by My nameh8034, becomeh1961 a  bdenh4631 of robbersh6530 in your sighth5869? Beholdh2009,  cI, evenh1571 I, have seenh7200 it," declaresh5002 the LORDh3068.

12

"But goh1980 nowh4994 to My placeh4725 whichh834 was in  aShilohh7887, whereh834h8033 I  bmade My nameh8034 dwellh7931 at the firsth7223, and  cseeh7200 whath834 I didh6213a to it becauseh4480h6440 of the wickednessh7463a of My peopleh5971a Israelh3478.

13

"And nowh6258, becauseh3282 you have doneh6213a allh3605 theseh428 thingsh4639," declaresh5002 the LORDh3068, "and I spokeh1696 to you,  arisingh7925 up earlyh7925 and  bspeakingh1696, but you did not hearh8085, and I  ccalledh7121 you but you did not answerh6030a,

14

therefore, I will doh6213a to the  ahouseh1004 whichh834 is calledh7121 by My nameh8034,  bin whichh834 you trusth982, and to the placeh4725 whichh834 I gaveh5414 you and your fathersh1, as I  cdidh6213a to Shilohh7887.

15

"I will  acasth7993 you out of My sighth6440, as I have casth7993 out allh3605 your brothersh251, allh3605 the  1offspringh2233 of  bEphraimh669.

16

"As for you,  ado not prayh6419 for thish2088 peopleh5971a, and do not lifth5375 up cryh7440 or prayerh8605 for them, and do not intercedeh6293 with Me; for I do not hearh8085 you.

17

"Do you not seeh7200 whath4100 they are doingh6213a in the citiesh5892b of Judahh3063 and in the streetsh2351 of Jerusalemh3389?

18

"The  1childrenh1121 gatherh3950 woodh6086, and the fathersh1 kindleh1197a the fireh784, and the womenh802 kneadh3888 doughh1217 to makeh6213a cakesh3561 for the queenh4446 of heavenh8064; and they  apourh5258a out drinkh5262a offeringsh5262a to otherh312 godsh430 in orderh4616 to  bspiteh3707 Me.

19

aDo they spiteh3707 Me?" declaresh5002 the LORDh3068. "Is it not themselves they spite, to  1their ownh6440  bshameh1322h6440?"

20

Thereforeh3651 thush3541 saysh559 the Lordh136  1GODh3068, "Beholdh2009, My  aangerh639 and My wrathh2534 will be pouredh5413 out on thish2088 placeh4725, on manh120 and on beasth929 and on the  btreesh6086 of the fieldh7704 and on the fruith6529 of the groundh127; and it will burnh1197a and not be quenchedh3518."

21

Thush3541 saysh559 the LORDh3068 of hostsh6635, the Godh430 of Israelh3478, "Addh3254 your  aburnth5930a offeringsh5930a to your sacrificesh2077 and  beath398 fleshh1320.

22

"For I did not  aspeakh1696 to your fathersh1, or commandh6680 them in the dayh3117 that I broughth3318 them out of the landh776 of Egypth4714, concerningh5921h1697 burnth5930a offeringsh5930a and sacrificesh2077.

23

"But thish2088 is  1whath1697 I commandedh6680 them, sayingh559, ` aObeyh8085 My voiceh6963, and  bI will be your Godh430, and you will be My peopleh5971a; and you will walkh1980 in allh3605 the wayh1870 whichh834 I commandh6680 you, that it may  cbe wellh3190 with you.'

24

"Yet they  adid not obeyh8085 or inclineh5186 their earh241, but walkedh1980 in their own counselsh4156 and in the stubbornnessh8307 of their evilh7451a hearth3820, and  1 bwenth1961 backwardh268 and not forwardh6440.

25

"Sinceh4480 the dayh3117 that your fathersh1 cameh3318 out of the landh776 of Egypth4714 untilh5704 thish2088 dayh3117, I have  asenth7971 you allh3605 My servantsh5650 the prophetsh5030, dailyh3117 risingh7925 earlyh7925 and sendingh7971 them.

26

"Yet they did not listenh8085 to Me or inclineh5186 their earh241, but  astiffenedh7185 their neckh6203; they  bdid moreh4480 evilh7489a thanh4480 their fathersh1.

27

"You shall  aspeakh1696 allh3605 theseh428 wordsh1697 to them, but they will not listenh8085 to you; and you shall callh7121 to them, but they will  bnot answerh6030a you.

28

"You shall sayh559 to them, `Thish2088 is the nationh1471 that  adid not obeyh8085 the voiceh6963 of the LORDh3068 their Godh430 or accepth3947 correctionh4148;  1 btruthh530 has perishedh6 and has been cuth3772 offh3772 from their mouthh6310.

29

aCuth1494 offh1494  1your hairh5145 and casth7993 it awayh7993, And  btakeh5375 up a lamentationh7015 on the bareh8205 heightsh8205; For the LORDh3068 has  crejectedh3988a and forsakenh5203 The generationh1755 of His wrathh5678.'

30

"For the sonsh1121 of Judahh3063 have doneh6213a that whichh7451a is evilh7451a in My sighth5869," declaresh5002 the LORDh3068, "they have  aseth7760 their detestableh8251 thingsh8251 in the househ1004 whichh834 is calledh7121 by My nameh8034, to defileh2930 it.

31

"They have  abuilth1129 the highh1116 placesh1116 of Tophethh8612, whichh834 is in the valleyh1516 of the sonh1121 of Hinnomh2011, to  bburnh8313 their sonsh1121 and their daughtersh1323 in the fireh784, whichh834 I  cdid not commandh6680, and it did not comeh5927 into My  1mindh3820.

32

aThereforeh3651, beholdh2009, daysh3117 are comingh935," declaresh5002 the LORDh3068, "when it will noh3808 longerh5750 be calledh559 Tophethh8612, or the valleyh1516 of the sonh1121 of Hinnomh2011, but the valleyh1516 of the Slaughterh2028; for they will  bburyh6912 in Tophethh8612  1becauseh4480 thereh369 is noh369 other placeh4725.

33

"The  adeadh5038 bodiesh5038 of thish2088 peopleh5971a will be foodh3978 for the birdsh5775 of the skyh8064 and for the beastsh929 of the earthh776; and noh369 oneh369 will frightenh2729 them away.

34

"Then I will make to  aceaseh7673a from the citiesh5892b of Judahh3063 and from the streetsh2351 of Jerusalemh3389 the voiceh6963 of joyh8342 and the voiceh6963 of gladnessh8057, the voiceh6963 of the bridegroomh2860a and the voiceh6963 of the brideh3618; for the  blandh776 will becomeh1961 a ruinh2723.
