Jeremiah 6:9-12
Amplified Bible
Jeremiah 6:9-12
Amplified Bible
9
Thus says the Lord of hosts,
“They will thoroughly gather like [fruit on] a vine what is left of Israel;
Pass your hand [over the vine] again and again [Babylon, tool of destruction] like a grape gatherer,
Over the branches [stripping the tendrils off the vine].”
10
To whom shall I (Jeremiah) speak and give warning
That they may hear?
Behold, their ears are [a]closed [absolutely deaf to God]
And they cannot listen.
Behold, the word of the Lord has become a reprimand and an object of scorn to them;
They have no delight in it.(A)
11
But I am full of the wrath (judgment) of the Lord;
I am tired of restraining it.
“[I will] pour it out on the children in the street
And on the young men gathered together;
For both the husband and wife shall be taken,
The aged and the very old [though full of days they are not exempt from judgment].
12
“Their houses shall be turned over to others,
Their fields and their wives together;
For I will stretch out My hand
Against the inhabitants of the land,” says the Lord.

9 This is what the Lord of armies says:
“They will (A)thoroughly glean the (B)remnant of Israel like the vine;
Pass your hand over the branches again
Like a grape gatherer.”
10 To whom shall I speak and give warning,
That they may hear?
Behold, their (C)ears are [a]closed
And they cannot listen.
Behold, (D)the word of the Lord has become for them a rebuke;
They take no delight in it.
11 But I am (E)full of the wrath of the Lord;
I am (F)weary of holding it in.
“(G)Pour it out on the children in the street
And on the [b]gathering of young men together;
For both husband and wife shall be taken,
The old [c]and the very old.
12 Their (H)houses shall be turned over to others,
Their fields and their wives together;
For I will (I)stretch out My hand
Against the inhabitants of the land,” declares the Lord.

New International Version
Jeremiah 6:9-12
New International Version
9 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“Let them glean the remnant(A) of Israel
as thoroughly as a vine;
pass your hand over the branches again,
like one gathering grapes.”
10 To whom can I speak and give warning?
Who will listen(B) to me?
Their ears are closed[a](C)
so they cannot hear.(D)
The word(E) of the Lord is offensive to them;
they find no pleasure in it.
11 But I am full of the wrath(F) of the Lord,
and I cannot hold it in.(G)
“Pour it out on the children in the street
and on the young men(H) gathered together;
both husband and wife will be caught in it,
and the old, those weighed down with years.(I)
12 Their houses will be turned over to others,(J)
together with their fields and their wives,(K)
when I stretch out my hand(L)
against those who live in the land,”
declares the Lord.
