Therefore you go, and read from the scroll which you have written at my mouth, the Words of Jehovah in the ears of the people in Jehovah's house on the day of the fast. And also you shall read them in the ears of all Judah who come out of their cities.

And it happened, when Jehudi had read three or four leaves, that he cut it with the scribe's knife and threw it into the fire in the hearth, until all the scroll was burned up in the hearth.

And you shall say to Jehoiakim king of Judah, Thus says Jehovah: You have burned this scroll, saying, Why have you written in it, saying that the king of Babylon shall certainly come and destroy this land, and shall cause man and beast to be annihilated from there?

Thus speaks Jehovah the God of Israel, saying, Write all the Words that I have spoken to you in a book.

The word that Jeremiah the prophet spoke to Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had written these words in a book at the mouth of Jeremiah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying,

So Jeremiah wrote in a book all the evil that would come upon Babylon, all these words that are written against Babylon.

And Jehovah said to Moses, Write this for a memorial in the book and recount it in the ears of Joshua, that I will utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under the heavens.

So it was, when Moses had completed writing the words of this Law in a book, when they were finished,

And at Achmetha, in the palace that is in the province of Media, a scroll was found, and in it a record was written thus:

Oh, that I had one to hear me! Behold, my desire is that the Almighty would answer me, that the man complaining had written an indictment!

Then I said, Lo, I come (in the volume of the Book it is written of Me):

And Jehovah said to me, Take a large scroll and write in it with a man's pen: Maher- shalal-hash-baz. (which means, Hurry to the plunder! Make haste to the spoils!)

Now go, write it before them on a tablet, and note it in a book, so that it may be for time to come forever and ever,

that this is a rebellious people, lying children; children who will not hear the Law of Jehovah;

And when I looked, behold, there was a hand stretched out to me; and lo, a scroll of a book was in it.

Moreover He said to me, Son of man, eat what you find; eat this scroll, and go, speak to the house of Israel.

And He said to me, Son of man, feed your belly, and fill your stomach with this scroll that I give you. So I ate, and it was in my mouth like honey for sweetness.

And Jehovah answered me and said, Write the vision and make it plain on the tablets, that he who reads it may run.

For the vision is yet for the appointed time; it speaks forth to the end, and it does not lie. Though it delays, wait for it, because it will come and take place; it will not tarry.

And I again lifted up my eyes and looked, and, behold, a flying scroll.

And he said to me, This is the curse that goes forth over the face of the whole earth. For from now on everyone who steals shall be purged out according to it; and everyone who swears from now on shall be purged out according to it.

And I saw in the right hand of Him who sat on the throne a scroll written inside and on the back, having been sealed with seven seals.

And no one in Heaven or on the earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll, or to look upon it.

But one of the elders said to me, Do not weep. Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll and to loosen its seven seals.

And He came and took the scroll out of the right hand of Him who sat on the throne.

And they sing a new song, saying: You are worthy to take the scroll, and to open its seals; for You were slain, and have redeemed us to God by Your blood out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,

Thus speaks Jehovah the God of Israel, saying, Write all the Words that I have spoken to you in a book.

I have written the great things of My Law for him, but they were counted as a strange thing.

Hear the Word of Jehovah, O house of Jacob, and all the families of the house of Israel.

Therefore the showers have been withheld, and there has been no latter rain; and you had a harlot's forehead; you refused to be ashamed.

Will He keep His anger forever? Will He keep it to the end? Behold, you have spoken and done all the evil things you could.

And after she had done all these things I said, Turn back to Me! But she did not return. And her treacherous sister Judah saw it.

So it came to pass through the wantonness of her harlotry, that she defiled the land and committed adultery with stones and pieces of wood.

And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria; they prophesied by Baal and caused My people Israel to go astray.

I have also seen in the prophets of Jerusalem a horrible thing; they commit adultery and walk in falsehood. They also strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that no one turns back from his evil; they are all of them like Sodom to Me, and its inhabitants like Gomorrah.

For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have done only evil before Me from their youth. For the children of Israel have only provoked Me to anger with the work of their hands, says Jehovah.

because of all the evil of the children of Israel and of the children of Judah, which they have done to provoke Me to anger; they, their kings, their rulers, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

But they set their abominations in the house which is called by My name, to defile it.

Therefore Jehovah was very angry with Israel, and removed them away from before His face; there was no one left but only the tribe of Judah.

And Jehovah rejected all the seed of Israel, afflicted them, and delivered them into the hand of plunderers, until He had cast them away from before His face.

Before I formed you in the belly I knew you; and before you came forth out of the womb I consecrated you, and I ordained you a prophet to the nations.

Behold, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.

behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, says Jehovah, and Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, My servant, and will bring them against this land, and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations all around. And I will completely destroy them, and make them a waste, and a hissing, and perpetual ruins.

And this whole land shall be a ruin and a waste. And these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.

And I will bring on that land all My Words which I have spoken against it, all that is written in this book which Jeremiah has prophesied against all the nations.

For thus says Jehovah the God of Israel to me, Take the wine cup of this wrath from My hand, and cause all the nations to whom I send you to drink it.

Then I took the cup from Jehovah's hand, and made all the nations drink, to whom Jehovah had sent me;

Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and his servants, his rulers, and all his people;

Edom, and Moab, and the sons of Ammon;

Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and those who are cut off at the remotest regions;

and all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes;

Therefore you shall say to them, Thus says Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel: Drink and be drunk, and vomit, and fall and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.

For, lo, I am beginning to bring evil on the city which is called by My name; and should you be found clean and free from guilt? You shall not be without guilt, for I will call for a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, says Jehovah of Hosts.

The Word of Jehovah that came unto Jeremiah the prophet against the Philistines, before Pharaoh struck Gaza.

At the noise of the stamping of the hooves of his strong horses, at the rushing of his chariots, the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers shall not look back for their children because of feebleness of hands;

Baldness has come upon Gaza. Ashkelon is cut off with the rest of their valley. For how long will you cut yourself off?

How can it be quiet, since Jehovah has given it a command? He has appointed it there against Ashkelon, and against the seashore.

to whom the Word of Jehovah came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign.

It also came in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the carrying away captive of Jerusalem in the fifth month.

From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon king of Judah, even to this day, which is the twenty-third year, the Word of Jehovah has come unto me; and I have spoken to you, rising early and speaking; but you have not listened.
