Now it happened that on the next day, Pashhur released Jeremiah from the stocks. And Jeremiah said to him, “Pashhur is not the name Yahweh has (A)called you, but rather [a](B)Magor-missabib. For thus says Yahweh, ‘Behold, I am going to make you a (C)terror to yourself and to all your friends; and while (D)your eyes look on, they will fall by the sword of their enemies. So I will (E)give over all Judah to the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will take them away into (F)exile to Babylon and will strike them down with the sword. I will also give over all the (G)wealth of this city, all the fruit of its labor, and all its precious things; even all the treasures of the kings of Judah I will give over to the (H)hand of their enemies, and they will plunder them, take them away, and bring them to Babylon. And you, (I)Pashhur, and all who live in your house will go into captivity; and you will enter Babylon, and there you will die, and there you will be buried, you and all your (J)friends to whom you have (K)prophesied lies.’”

Then on the next day, when Pashhur released Jeremiah from the stocks, Jeremiah said to him, “Pashhur is not the name the Lord has (A)called you, but rather [a](B)Magor-missabib. For this is what the Lord says: ‘Behold, I am going to make you a (C)horror to yourself and to all your friends; and while (D)your eyes look on, they will fall by the sword of their enemies. So I will (E)hand all Judah over to the king of Babylon, and he will take them away as (F)exiles to Babylon and will kill them with the sword. I will also give all the (G)wealth of this city, all its produce and all its valuable things—even all the treasures of the kings of Judah I will (H)hand over to their enemies, and they will plunder them, take them away, and bring them to Babylon. And you, (I)Pashhur, and all who live in your house will go into captivity; and you will enter Babylon, and there you will die and there you will be buried, you and all your (J)friends to whom you have (K)falsely prophesied.’”
