Jeremiah 25:15-38
New American Standard Bible
15 For this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says to me: “Take this (A)cup of the wine of wrath from My hand and give it to all the nations to whom I send you, to drink from it. 16 Then they will (B)drink and loudly vomit and act insanely because of the sword that I am going to send among them.”
17 So I took the cup from the Lord’s hand and (C)gave it to all the nations to whom the Lord sent me, to drink from it: 18 To (D)Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, and its kings and its officials, to make them places of ruins, objects of horror, [a]hissing, and a curse, as it is this day; 19 To (E)Pharaoh king of Egypt, his servants, his officials, and all his people; 20 and to all the (F)foreign [b]people, all the kings of the (G)land of Uz, all the kings of the land of the (H)Philistines (that is, Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of (I)Ashdod); 21 To (J)Edom, (K)Moab, and the sons of (L)Ammon; 22 and to all the kings of (M)Tyre, all the kings of Sidon, and the kings of (N)the coastlands which are beyond the sea; 23 and to (O)Dedan, Tema, (P)Buz, and all who (Q)trim the corners of their hair; 24 and to all the kings of (R)Arabia and all the kings of the (S)foreign [c]people who live in the desert; 25 and to all the kings of Zimri, all the kings of (T)Elam, and all the kings of (U)Media; 26 and to all the kings of the north, near and far, one with another; and (V)all the kingdoms of the earth which are on the face of the ground; and the king of [d](W)Sheshach shall drink it after them.
27 “And you shall say to them, ‘This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel says: “(X)Drink, be drunk, vomit, fall down, and do not get up, because of the (Y)sword which I am sending among you.”’ 28 And if they (Z)refuse to take the cup from your hand to drink, then you shall say to them, ‘This is what the Lord of armies says: “(AA)You shall certainly drink! 29 For behold, I am (AB)beginning to inflict disaster on this city which is (AC)called by My name, so should you be completely free from punishment? You will not be free from punishment, for (AD)I am summoning a sword against all the inhabitants of the earth,” declares the Lord of armies.’
30 “Therefore you shall prophesy against them all these words, and you shall say to them,
‘The (AE)Lord will (AF)roar from on high
And raise His voice from His holy dwelling;
He will roar forcefully against His [e]fold.
He will shout like those who tread the grapes,
Against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 A clamor has come to the end of the earth,
Because the Lord has (AG)a controversy with the nations.
He is entering into (AH)judgment with [f]humanity;
As for the wicked, He has turned them over to the sword,’ declares the Lord.”
32 This is what the Lord of armies says:
“Behold, evil is going out
From (AI)nation to nation,
And a great (AJ)storm is being stirred up
From the remotest parts of the earth.
33 “Those (AK)put to death by the Lord on that day will be from one end of the earth to the [g]other. They will (AL)not be mourned, gathered, or buried; they will be like (AM)dung on the face of the ground.
34 Wail, you shepherds, and cry out;
(AN)Wallow in the dust, you masters of the flock;
For the days of your (AO)slaughter and your dispersions [h]have come,
And you will fall like a precious vessel.
35 [i]There will be (AP)no sanctuary for the shepherds,
Nor escape for the masters of the flock.
36 Hear the sound of the cry of the shepherds,
And the wailing of the masters of the flock!
For the Lord is destroying their pasture,
37 And the peaceful (AQ)grazing places are devastated
Because of the (AR)fierce anger of the Lord.
38 He has left His hiding place (AS)like the lion;
For their land has become a horror
Because of the fierceness of the [j]oppressing sword
And because of His fierce anger.”

The Cup of God’s Wrath
15 This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, said to me: “Take from my hand this cup(A) filled with the wine of my wrath and make all the nations to whom I send(B) you drink it. 16 When they drink(C) it, they will stagger(D) and go mad(E) because of the sword(F) I will send among them.”
17 So I took the cup from the Lord’s hand and made all the nations to whom he sent(G) me drink it: 18 Jerusalem(H) and the towns of Judah, its kings and officials, to make them a ruin(I) and an object of horror and scorn,(J) a curse[a](K)—as they are today;(L) 19 Pharaoh king(M) of Egypt,(N) his attendants, his officials and all his people, 20 and all the foreign people there; all the kings of Uz;(O) all the kings of the Philistines(P) (those of Ashkelon,(Q) Gaza,(R) Ekron, and the people left at Ashdod); 21 Edom,(S) Moab(T) and Ammon;(U) 22 all the kings of Tyre(V) and Sidon;(W) the kings of the coastlands(X) across the sea; 23 Dedan,(Y) Tema,(Z) Buz(AA) and all who are in distant places[b];(AB) 24 all the kings of Arabia(AC) and all the kings of the foreign people(AD) who live in the wilderness; 25 all the kings of Zimri,(AE) Elam(AF) and Media;(AG) 26 and all the kings of the north,(AH) near and far, one after the other—all the kingdoms(AI) on the face of the earth. And after all of them, the king of Sheshak[c](AJ) will drink it too.
27 “Then tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Drink, get drunk(AK) and vomit, and fall to rise no more because of the sword(AL) I will send among you.’ 28 But if they refuse to take the cup from your hand and drink(AM), tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty says: You must drink it! 29 See, I am beginning to bring disaster(AN) on the city that bears my Name,(AO) and will you indeed go unpunished?(AP) You will not go unpunished, for I am calling down a sword(AQ) on all(AR) who live on the earth,(AS) declares the Lord Almighty.’
30 “Now prophesy all these words against them and say to them:
“‘The Lord will roar(AT) from on high;
he will thunder(AU) from his holy dwelling(AV)
and roar mightily against his land.
He will shout like those who tread(AW) the grapes,
shout against all who live on the earth.
31 The tumult(AX) will resound to the ends of the earth,
for the Lord will bring charges(AY) against the nations;
he will bring judgment(AZ) on all(BA) mankind
and put the wicked to the sword,(BB)’”
declares the Lord.
32 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“Look! Disaster(BC) is spreading
from nation to nation;(BD)
a mighty storm(BE) is rising
from the ends of the earth.”(BF)
33 At that time those slain(BG) by the Lord will be everywhere—from one end of the earth to the other. They will not be mourned or gathered(BH) up or buried,(BI) but will be like dung lying on the ground.
34 Weep and wail, you shepherds;(BJ)
roll(BK) in the dust, you leaders of the flock.
For your time to be slaughtered(BL) has come;
you will fall like the best of the rams.[d](BM)
35 The shepherds will have nowhere to flee,
the leaders of the flock no place to escape.(BN)
36 Hear the cry(BO) of the shepherds,(BP)
the wailing of the leaders of the flock,
for the Lord is destroying their pasture.
37 The peaceful meadows will be laid waste
because of the fierce anger of the Lord.
38 Like a lion(BQ) he will leave his lair,
and their land will become desolate(BR)
because of the sword[e] of the oppressor(BS)
and because of the Lord’s fierce anger.(BT)

Jeremiah’s Scroll Read in the Temple
36 In the (A)fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying, 2 “Take a [a](B)scroll and write on it all the (C)words which I have spoken to you concerning (D)Israel, Judah, and all the (E)nations, from the (F)day I first spoke to you, from the days of Josiah, even to this day. 3 (G)Perhaps the house of Judah will listen to all the disaster which I plan to carry out against them, so that every person will (H)turn from his evil way; then I will (I)forgive their wrongdoing and their sin.”
4 Then Jeremiah called (J)Baruch the son of Neriah, and Baruch wrote on a [b](K)scroll [c]at the dictation of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord which He had spoken to him. 5 Jeremiah then commanded Baruch, saying, “I am [d](L)restricted; I cannot go into the house of the Lord. 6 So you go and (M)read from the scroll, which you have (N)written [e]at my dictation, the words of the Lord [f]to the people at the Lord’s house on a day of (O)fasting. And you shall also read them [g]to all the people of Judah who come from their cities. 7 (P)Perhaps their pleading will [h]come before the Lord, and everyone will turn from his evil way; for (Q)great is the anger and the wrath that the Lord has pronounced against this people.” 8 So Baruch the son of Neriah acted in accordance with all that Jeremiah the prophet commanded him, (R)reading from the book the words of the Lord in the Lord’s house.
9 Now in the (S)fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, in the (T)ninth month, all the people in Jerusalem and all the people who (U)came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem proclaimed a (V)fast before the Lord. 10 Then Baruch read to all the people from the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the Lord in the (W)chamber of (X)Gemariah the son of Shaphan the (Y)scribe, in the upper courtyard, at the (Z)entry of the New Gate of the Lord’s house.
11 Now when (AA)Micaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard all the words of the Lord from the book, 12 he went down to the king’s house, into the scribe’s chamber. And behold, all the officials were sitting there—(AB)Elishama the scribe, (AC)Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, (AD)Elnathan the son of Achbor, Gemariah the son of Shaphan, Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the other officials. 13 And Micaiah (AE)declared to them all the words that he had heard when Baruch read from the book to the people. 14 Then all the officials sent (AF)Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, who was the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, “Take in your hand the scroll from which you have read to the people and come.” So Baruch the son of Neriah (AG)took the scroll in his hand and came to them. 15 And they said to him, “Sit down, please, and read it to us.” So Baruch (AH)read it to them. 16 When they had heard all the words, they turned in (AI)fear one to another. And they said to Baruch, “We will certainly (AJ)report all these words to the king.” 17 Then they asked Baruch, saying, “Tell us, please, (AK)how did you write all these words? Was it [i]at Jeremiah’s dictation?” 18 And Baruch said to them, “He (AL)dictated all these words to me, and I wrote them with ink on the book.” 19 Then the officials said to Baruch, “Go, (AM)hide yourself, you and Jeremiah, and do not let anyone know where you are.”
The Scroll Is Burned
20 So they came to the (AN)king in the courtyard, but they had deposited the scroll in the chamber of (AO)Elishama the scribe; and they reported all the words to the king. 21 Then the king sent Jehudi to get the scroll, and he took it out of the chamber of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi (AP)read it to the king as well as to all the officials who were standing beside the king. 22 Now the king was sitting in the (AQ)winter house in the (AR)ninth month, with a fire burning in the brazier before him. 23 And when Jehudi had read three or four columns, the king cut it with a scribe’s knife and (AS)threw it into the fire that was in the brazier, until all of the scroll was consumed in the fire that was in the brazier. 24 Yet the king and all his servants who heard all these words did (AT)not tremble in fear, nor did they (AU)tear their garments. 25 Even though Elnathan, Delaiah, and Gemariah (AV)urged the king not to burn the scroll, he would not listen to them. 26 And the king commanded Jerahmeel the king’s son, Seraiah the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah the son of Abdeel to (AW)seize Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet, but the (AX)Lord hid them.
The Scroll Is Replaced
27 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah after the king had (AY)burned the scroll and the words which (AZ)Baruch had written [j]at the dictation of Jeremiah, saying, 28 “(BA)Take again another scroll and write on it all the previous words that were (BB)on the first scroll, which Jehoiakim the king of Judah burned. 29 And concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah you shall say, ‘This is what the Lord says: “You have (BC)burned this scroll, saying, ‘(BD)Why have you written on it [k]that the (BE)king of Babylon will certainly come and destroy this land, and will make mankind and animals disappear from it?’” 30 Therefore this is what the Lord says concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: “He shall have (BF)no one to sit on the throne of David, and his (BG)dead body shall be thrown out to the heat of the day and the frost of the night. 31 I will also (BH)punish him, his [l]descendants, and his servants for their wrongdoing, and I will (BI)bring on them and the inhabitants of Jerusalem and the people of Judah all the disaster that I have declared to them—but they did not listen.”’”
32 Then Jeremiah took another scroll and gave it to the scribe Baruch the son of Neriah, and he (BJ)wrote on it at the [m]dictation of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire; and many [n]similar words were added to them.

Jehoiakim Burns Jeremiah’s Scroll
36 In the fourth year of Jehoiakim(A) son of Josiah king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord: 2 “Take a scroll(B) and write on it all the words(C) I have spoken to you concerning Israel, Judah and all the other nations from the time I began speaking to you in the reign of Josiah(D) till now. 3 Perhaps(E) when the people of Judah hear(F) about every disaster I plan to inflict on them, they will each turn(G) from their wicked ways; then I will forgive(H) their wickedness and their sin.”
4 So Jeremiah called Baruch(I) son of Neriah,(J) and while Jeremiah dictated(K) all the words the Lord had spoken to him, Baruch wrote them on the scroll.(L) 5 Then Jeremiah told Baruch, “I am restricted; I am not allowed to go to the Lord’s temple. 6 So you go to the house of the Lord on a day of fasting(M) and read to the people from the scroll the words of the Lord that you wrote as I dictated.(N) Read them to all the people of Judah(O) who come in from their towns. 7 Perhaps they will bring their petition(P) before the Lord and will each turn(Q) from their wicked ways, for the anger(R) and wrath pronounced against this people by the Lord are great.”
8 Baruch son of Neriah did everything Jeremiah the prophet told him to do; at the Lord’s temple he read the words of the Lord from the scroll. 9 In the ninth month(S) of the fifth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, a time of fasting(T) before the Lord was proclaimed for all the people in Jerusalem and those who had come from the towns of Judah. 10 From the room of Gemariah(U) son of Shaphan(V) the secretary,(W) which was in the upper courtyard at the entrance of the New Gate(X) of the temple, Baruch read to all the people at the Lord’s temple the words of Jeremiah from the scroll.
11 When Micaiah son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, heard all the words of the Lord from the scroll, 12 he went down to the secretary’s(Y) room in the royal palace, where all the officials were sitting: Elishama the secretary, Delaiah son of Shemaiah, Elnathan(Z) son of Akbor, Gemariah son of Shaphan, Zedekiah son of Hananiah, and all the other officials.(AA) 13 After Micaiah told them everything he had heard Baruch read to the people from the scroll, 14 all the officials sent Jehudi(AB) son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to say to Baruch, “Bring the scroll(AC) from which you have read to the people and come.” So Baruch son of Neriah went to them with the scroll in his hand. 15 They said to him, “Sit down, please, and read it to us.”
So Baruch read it to them. 16 When they heard all these words, they looked at each other in fear(AD) and said to Baruch, “We must report all these words to the king.” 17 Then they asked Baruch, “Tell us, how did you come to write(AE) all this? Did Jeremiah dictate it?”
18 “Yes,” Baruch replied, “he dictated(AF) all these words to me, and I wrote them in ink on the scroll.”
19 Then the officials(AG) said to Baruch, “You and Jeremiah, go and hide.(AH) Don’t let anyone know where you are.”
20 After they put the scroll in the room of Elishama the secretary, they went to the king in the courtyard and reported everything to him. 21 The king sent Jehudi(AI) to get the scroll, and Jehudi brought it from the room of Elishama the secretary and read it to the king(AJ) and all the officials standing beside him. 22 It was the ninth month and the king was sitting in the winter apartment,(AK) with a fire burning in the firepot in front of him. 23 Whenever Jehudi had read three or four columns of the scroll,(AL) the king cut them off with a scribe’s knife and threw them into the firepot, until the entire scroll was burned in the fire.(AM) 24 The king and all his attendants who heard all these words showed no fear,(AN) nor did they tear their clothes.(AO) 25 Even though Elnathan, Delaiah(AP) and Gemariah(AQ) urged the king not to burn the scroll, he would not listen to them. 26 Instead, the king commanded Jerahmeel, a son of the king, Seraiah son of Azriel and Shelemiah son of Abdeel to arrest(AR) Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet. But the Lord had hidden(AS) them.
27 After the king burned the scroll containing the words that Baruch had written at Jeremiah’s dictation,(AT) the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah: 28 “Take another scroll(AU) and write on it all the words that were on the first scroll, which Jehoiakim king of Judah burned up. 29 Also tell Jehoiakim king of Judah, ‘This is what the Lord says: You burned that scroll and said, “Why did you write on it that the king of Babylon would certainly come and destroy this land and wipe from it(AV) both man and beast?”(AW) 30 Therefore this is what the Lord says about Jehoiakim(AX) king of Judah: He will have no one to sit on the throne of David; his body will be thrown out(AY) and exposed(AZ) to the heat by day and the frost by night.(BA) 31 I will punish him and his children(BB) and his attendants for their wickedness; I will bring on them and those living in Jerusalem and the people of Judah every disaster(BC) I pronounced against them, because they have not listened.(BD)’”
32 So Jeremiah took another scroll and gave it to the scribe Baruch son of Neriah, and as Jeremiah dictated,(BE) Baruch wrote(BF) on it all the words of the scroll that Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned(BG) in the fire. And many similar words were added to them.

Message to Baruch
45 This is the message which Jeremiah the prophet spoke to (A)Baruch the son of Neriah, when he had (B)written these words in a book [a]at Jeremiah’s dictation, in the (C)fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, saying: 2 “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel says to you, Baruch: 3 ‘You said, “Oh, woe to me! For the Lord has added grief to my pain; I am (D)weary with my groaning and have found no rest.”’ 4 This is what you are to say to him: ‘This is what the Lord says: “Behold, (E)what I have built I am going to tear down, and what I have planted I am going to uproot, that is, all the people of the land.” 5 But as for you, are you (F)seeking great things for yourself? Do not seek them; for behold, I am going to (G)bring disaster on all flesh,’ declares the Lord, ‘but I will (H)give your life to you as plunder in all the places where you may go.’”
Defeat of Pharaoh Foretold
46 That which came as the word of the Lord to Jeremiah the prophet (I)concerning the nations.
2 To (J)Egypt, concerning the army of (K)Pharaoh Neco king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates at (L)Carchemish, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon defeated in the (M)fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah:
3 “(N)Set up the [b]buckler and shield,
And advance to the battle!
4 Harness the horses,
And [c]mount the steeds,
Take your stand with helmets on!
(O)Polish the spears,
Put on the (P)coats of armor!
5 Why have I seen it?
They are terrified,
They are (Q)retreating,
And their (R)warriors are defeated
And have taken refuge in flight,
Without facing back.
[d](S)Terror is on every side!”
Declares the Lord.
6 Let not the (T)swift man flee,
Nor the warrior escape.
In the north beside the river Euphrates
They have (U)stumbled and fallen.
7 Who is this that (V)rises like the Nile,
Like the rivers whose waters surge?
8 Egypt rises like the Nile,
And like the rivers whose waters surge;
And He has said, “I will (W)rise and cover that land;
I will (X)destroy the city and its inhabitants.”
9 Go up, you horses, and [e](Y)drive wildly, you chariots,
So that the warriors may [f]march forward:
[g]Cush and [h](Z)Put, who handle the shield,
And the [i](AA)Lydians, who handle and bend the bow.
10 For (AB)that day belongs to the Lord [j]God of armies,
A day of (AC)vengeance, so as to avenge Himself on His foes;
And the (AD)sword will devour and be satisfied,
And [k]drink its fill of their blood;
For there will be a (AE)slaughter for the Lord [l]God of armies,
In the land of the north at the river Euphrates.
11 Go (AF)up to Gilead and obtain balm,
(AG)Virgin daughter of Egypt!
You have used many [m]remedies in vain;
There is (AH)no healing for you.
12 The nations have heard of your (AI)shame,
And the earth is full of your (AJ)cry of distress;
For one (AK)warrior has stumbled over [n]another,
And both of them have fallen down together.
13 This is the [o]message which the Lord spoke to Jeremiah the prophet about the (AL)coming of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to (AM)strike the land of Egypt:
14 “Declare in Egypt and proclaim in (AN)Migdol,
Proclaim also in Memphis and (AO)Tahpanhes;
Say, ‘Take your stand and get yourself ready,
For the (AP)sword has devoured those around you.’
15 Why have your (AQ)powerful ones been cut down?
They do not stand because the Lord has (AR)thrust them away.
16 They have repeatedly (AS)stumbled;
Indeed, they have fallen, one against another.
Then they said, ‘Get up, and (AT)let’s go back
To our own people and our native land,
Away from the [p](AU)sword of the oppressor!’
17 [q]They shouted there, ‘Pharaoh king of Egypt is nothing but (AV)a big noise;
He has let the appointed time pass by!’
18 As I live,” declares the (AW)King,
Whose name is the Lord of armies,
“One certainly shall come who is like (AX)Tabor among the mountains,
Or like (AY)Carmel by the sea.
19 Make your baggage ready for (AZ)exile,
(BA)Daughter living in Egypt,
For (BB)Memphis will become a desolation;
It will be destroyed and [r]deprived of inhabitants.
20 Egypt is a pretty (BC)heifer,
But a [s]horsefly is coming (BD)from the north—it is coming!
21 Also her (BE)mercenaries in her midst
Are like fattened (BF)calves,
For they too have turned away and have fled together;
They did not stand their ground.
For the day of their disaster has come upon them,
The time of their (BG)punishment.
22 Its sound moves along like a serpent;
For they move on [t]like an army
And come to her as woodcutters with axes.
23 They have cut down her (BH)forest,” declares the Lord;
“Certainly it will no longer be found,
Even though [u]they are more numerous than (BI)locusts
And are without number.
24 The daughter of Egypt has been put to shame,
Turned over to the [v]power of the (BJ)people of the north.”
25 The Lord of armies, the God of Israel says: “Behold, I am going to punish Amon of (BK)Thebes, and (BL)Pharaoh, and Egypt along with her (BM)gods and her kings, indeed, Pharaoh and those who (BN)trust in him. 26 I shall hand them over to those who are (BO)seeking their lives, that is, to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and to his [w]officers. (BP)Afterward, however, it will be inhabited as in the days of old,” declares the Lord.
27 “But as for you, Jacob My servant, (BQ)do not fear,
Nor be dismayed, Israel!
For, see, I am going to (BR)save you from far away,
And your descendants from the land of their captivity;
And Jacob will return and be (BS)undisturbed
And secure, with no one making him afraid.
28 Jacob My servant, do not fear,” declares the Lord,
“For (BT)I am with you.
For I will make a complete destruction of all the nations
Where I have driven you,
Yet I will (BU)not make a complete destruction of you;
But I will (BV)correct you properly
And by no means leave you unpunished.”

45 When Baruch(A) son of Neriah(B) wrote on a scroll(C) the words Jeremiah the prophet dictated in the fourth year of Jehoiakim(D) son of Josiah king of Judah, Jeremiah said this to Baruch: 2 “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says to you, Baruch: 3 You said, ‘Woe(E) to me! The Lord has added sorrow(F) to my pain;(G) I am worn out with groaning(H) and find no rest.’(I) 4 But the Lord has told me to say to you, ‘This is what the Lord says: I will overthrow what I have built and uproot(J) what I have planted,(K) throughout the earth.(L) 5 Should you then seek great(M) things for yourself? Do not seek them.(N) For I will bring disaster(O) on all people,(P) declares the Lord, but wherever you go I will let you escape(Q) with your life.’”(R)
A Message About Egypt
46 This is the word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations:(S)
2 Concerning Egypt:(T)
This is the message against the army of Pharaoh Necho(U) king of Egypt, which was defeated at Carchemish(V) on the Euphrates(W) River by Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon in the fourth year of Jehoiakim(X) son of Josiah king of Judah:
3 “Prepare your shields,(Y) both large and small,
and march out for battle!
4 Harness the horses,
mount the steeds!
Take your positions
with helmets on!
Polish(Z) your spears,
put on your armor!(AA)
5 What do I see?
They are terrified,
they are retreating,
their warriors are defeated.
They flee(AB) in haste
without looking back,
and there is terror(AC) on every side,”
declares the Lord.
6 “The swift cannot flee(AD)
nor the strong escape.
In the north by the River Euphrates(AE)
they stumble and fall.(AF)
7 “Who is this that rises like the Nile,
like rivers of surging waters?(AG)
8 Egypt rises like the Nile,(AH)
like rivers of surging waters.
She says, ‘I will rise and cover the earth;
I will destroy cities and their people.’(AI)
9 Charge, you horses!
Drive furiously, you charioteers!(AJ)
March on, you warriors—men of Cush[a](AK) and Put who carry shields,
men of Lydia(AL) who draw the bow.
10 But that day(AM) belongs to the Lord, the Lord Almighty—
a day of vengeance(AN), for vengeance on his foes.
The sword will devour(AO) till it is satisfied,
till it has quenched its thirst with blood.(AP)
For the Lord, the Lord Almighty, will offer sacrifice(AQ)
in the land of the north by the River Euphrates.(AR)
11 “Go up to Gilead and get balm,(AS)
Virgin(AT) Daughter Egypt.
But you try many medicines in vain;
there is no healing(AU) for you.
12 The nations will hear of your shame;
your cries will fill the earth.
One warrior will stumble over another;
both will fall(AV) down together.”
13 This is the message the Lord spoke to Jeremiah the prophet about the coming of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon(AW) to attack Egypt:(AX)
14 “Announce this in Egypt, and proclaim it in Migdol;
proclaim it also in Memphis(AY) and Tahpanhes:(AZ)
‘Take your positions and get ready,
for the sword devours(BA) those around you.’
15 Why will your warriors be laid low?
They cannot stand, for the Lord will push them down.(BB)
16 They will stumble(BC) repeatedly;
they will fall(BD) over each other.
They will say, ‘Get up, let us go back
to our own people(BE) and our native lands,
away from the sword of the oppressor.’(BF)
17 There they will exclaim,
‘Pharaoh king of Egypt is only a loud noise;(BG)
he has missed his opportunity.(BH)’
18 “As surely as I live,” declares the King,(BI)
whose name is the Lord Almighty,
“one will come who is like Tabor(BJ) among the mountains,
like Carmel(BK) by the sea.
19 Pack your belongings for exile,(BL)
you who live in Egypt,
for Memphis(BM) will be laid waste(BN)
and lie in ruins without inhabitant.
20 “Egypt is a beautiful heifer,
but a gadfly is coming
against her from the north.(BO)
21 The mercenaries(BP) in her ranks
are like fattened calves.(BQ)
They too will turn and flee(BR) together,
they will not stand their ground,
for the day(BS) of disaster is coming upon them,
the time(BT) for them to be punished.
22 Egypt will hiss like a fleeing serpent
as the enemy advances in force;
they will come against her with axes,
like men who cut down trees.(BU)
23 They will chop down her forest,”
declares the Lord,
“dense though it be.
They are more numerous than locusts,(BV)
they cannot be counted.
24 Daughter Egypt will be put to shame,
given into the hands of the people of the north.(BW)”
25 The Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: “I am about to bring punishment on Amon god of Thebes,(BX) on Pharaoh,(BY) on Egypt and her gods(BZ) and her kings, and on those who rely(CA) on Pharaoh. 26 I will give them into the hands(CB) of those who want to kill them—Nebuchadnezzar king(CC) of Babylon and his officers. Later, however, Egypt will be inhabited(CD) as in times past,” declares the Lord.
27 “Do not be afraid,(CE) Jacob(CF) my servant;(CG)
do not be dismayed, Israel.
I will surely save you out of a distant place,
your descendants from the land of their exile.(CH)
Jacob will again have peace and security,
and no one will make him afraid.
28 Do not be afraid, Jacob my servant,
for I am with you,”(CI) declares the Lord.
“Though I completely destroy(CJ) all the nations
among which I scatter you,
I will not completely destroy you.
I will discipline you but only in due measure;
I will not let you go entirely unpunished.”
