Defeat of Pharaoh Foretold

1

That whichh834 cameh1961 as the wordh1697 of the LORDh3068 to Jeremiahh3414 the propheth5030  aconcerningh5921 the nationsh1471.

2

To  aEgypth4714, concerningh5921 the armyh2428 of  bPharaohh6549 Necoh6549 kingh4428 of Egypth4714, whichh834 was by the Euphratesh6578 Riverh5104 at  cCarchemishh3751, whichh834 Nebuchadnezzarh5019 kingh4428 of Babylonh894 defeatedh5221 in the  dfourthh7243 yearh8141 of Jehoiakimh3079 the sonh1121 of Josiahh2977, kingh4428 of Judahh3063:

3

aLineh6186a up the shieldh4043 and  1bucklerh6793c, And drawh5066 nearh5066 for the battleh4421!

4

"Harnessh631 the horsesh5483b, And  1mounth5927 the steedsh6571a, And takeh3320 your standh3320 with helmetsh3553 on!  aPolishh4838 the spearsh7420, Puth3847 on the  bscale-armorh5630!

5

"Whyh4069 have I seenh7200 it? They are terrifiedh2844b, They are  adrawingh5472 backh268, And their  bmightyh1368 menh1368 are defeatedh3807 And have takenh5127 refugeh5127 in flighth4498, Withouth3808 facingh6437 backh6437;  1 cTerrorh4032 is on everyh5439 sideh5439!" Declaresh5002 the LORDh3068.

6

Let not the  aswifth7031 manh7031 fleeh5127, Norh408 the mightyh1368 manh1368 escapeh4422; In the northh6828 besideh5921h3027 the riverh5104 Euphratesh6578 They have  bstumbledh3782 and fallenh5307.

7

Whoh4310 is thish2088 that  arisesh5927 like the Nileh2975, Like the riversh5104 whose watersh4325 surgeh1607 about?

8

Egypth4714 risesh5927 like the Nileh2975, Even like the riversh5104 whose watersh4325 surgeh1607 about; And He has saidh559, "I will  ariseh5927 and coverh3680 that landh776; I will surely  bdestroyh6 the cityh5892b and its inhabitantsh3427."

9

Goh5927 up, you horsesh5483b, and  1 adriveh1984b madlyh1984b, you chariotsh7393, That the mightyh1368 menh1368 may  2marchh3318 forwardh3318: Ethiopiah3568a and  3 bPuth6316, that handleh8610 the shieldh4043, And the  4 cLydiansh3866, that handleh8610 and bendh1869 the bowh7198.

10

For  athat dayh3117 belongs to the Lordh136  1GODh3068 of hostsh6635, A dayh3117 of  bvengeanceh5360, so as to avengeh5358 Himself on His foesh6862c; And the  cswordh2719 will devourh398 and be satiatedh7646 And  2drinkh7301 its fillh7301 of their bloodh1818; For there will be a  dslaughterh2077 for the Lordh136  1GODh3068 of hostsh6635, In the landh776 of the northh6828 by the riverh5104 Euphratesh6578.

11

Goh5927  aup to Gileadh1568 and obtainh3947 balmh6875,  bO virginh1330 daughterh1323 of Egypth4714! In vainh7723 have you multipliedh7235a  1remediesh7499; Thereh369 is  cnoh369 healingh8585b for you.

12

The nationsh1471 have heardh8085 of your  ashameh7036, And the earthh776 is fullh4390 of your  bcryh6682 of distress; For one  cwarriorh1368 has stumbledh3782 over  1anotherh1368, And bothh8147 of them have fallenh5307 downh5307 togetherh3164a.

13

This is the  1messageh1697 whichh834 the LORDh3068 spokeh1696 to Jeremiahh3414 the propheth5030 about the  acomingh935 of Nebuchadnezzarh5019 kingh4428 of Babylonh894 to  bsmiteh5221 the landh776 of Egypth4714:

14

"Declareh5046 in Egypth4714 and proclaimh8085 in  aMigdolh4024, Proclaimh8085 also in Memphish5297 and  bTahpanhesh8471; Sayh559, `Takeh3320 your standh3320 and geth3559 yourself readyh3559, For the  cswordh2719 has devouredh398 those aroundh5439 you.'

15

"Whyh4069 have your  amightyh47 onesh47 becomeh5502 prostrateh5502? They do not standh5975 becauseh3588 the LORDh3068 has  bthrusth1920 them downh1920.

16

"They have repeatedlyh7235a  astumbledh3782; Indeedh1571, they have fallenh5307 oneh376 againsth413 anotherh7453. Then they saidh559, `Geth6965 up! And  blet us goh7725 backh7725 To our own peopleh5971a and our nativeh4138 landh776 Away from the  1 cswordh2719 of the oppressorh3238.'

17

1They criedh7121 thereh8033, `Pharaohh6547 kingh4428 of Egypth4714 is but  aa bigh7588 noiseh7588; He has let the appointedh4150 timeh4150 passh5674a by!'

18

"As I liveh2416a," declaresh5002 the  aKingh4428 Whose nameh8034 is the LORDh3068 of hostsh6635, "Surelyh3588 one shall comeh935 who looms up like  bTaborh8396 among the mountainsh2022, Or like  cCarmelh3760 by the seah3220.

19

"Makeh6213a your baggageh3627 readyh6213a for  aexileh1473, O  bdaughterh1323 dwellingh3427 in Egypth4714, For  cMemphish5297 will becomeh1961 a desolationh8047; It will even be burnedh3341 downh3341 and  1berefth4480h369 of inhabitantsh3427.

20

"Egypth4714 is a prettyh3304  aheiferh5697, But a  1horseflyh7171 is comingh935  bfrom the northh6828--it is comingh935!

21

"Alsoh1571 her  amercenariesh7917a in her midsth7130 Are like  1fattenedh4770  bcalvesh5695, For evenh1571 they tooh1571 have turnedh6437 backh6437 and have fledh5127 away togetherh3164a; They did not standh5975 their ground. For the dayh3117 of their calamityh343 has comeh935 upon them, The timeh6256 of their  cpunishmenth6486.

22

"Its soundh6963 movesh1980 along like a serpenth5175; For they moveh1980 on  1like an armyh2428 And comeh935 to her as woodcuttersh2404 with axesh7134.

23

"They have cuth3772 downh3772 her  aforesth3293a," declaresh5002 the LORDh3068; "Surelyh3588 it will noh3808 more be foundh2713, Even thoughh3588  1they are now moreh4480 numeroush7231 thanh4480  blocustsh697 And are withouth369 numberh4557.

24

"The daughterh1323 of Egypth4714 has beenh954 puth954 to shameh954, Givenh5414 over to the  1powerh3027 of the  apeopleh5971a of the northh6828."

25

The LORDh3068 of hostsh6635, the Godh430 of Israelh3478, saysh559, "Beholdh2009, I am going to punishh6485 Amonh528 of  aThebesh4996, and  bPharaohh6547, and Egypth4714 along with her  cgodsh430 and her kingsh4428, even Pharaohh6547 and those who  dtrusth982 in him.

26

"I shall giveh5414 them over to the  1powerh3027 of those who are  aseekingh1245 their livesh5315, even into the handh3027 of Nebuchadnezzarh5019 kingh4428 of Babylonh894 and into the handh3027 of his  2officersh5650.  bAfterwardsh310h3651, however, it will be inhabitedh7931 as in the daysh3117 of oldh6924a," declaresh5002 the LORDh3068.

27

"But as for you, O Jacobh3290 My servanth5650,  ado not fearh3372a, Norh408 be dismayedh2865, O Israelh3478! For, seeh2009, I am going to  bsaveh3467 you from afarh7350, And your descendantsh2233 from the landh776 of their captivityh7628b; And Jacobh3290 will returnh7725 and be  cundisturbedh8252 And secureh7599, with noh369 oneh369 making him trembleh2729.

28

"O Jacobh3290 My servanth5650, do not fearh3372a," declaresh5002 the LORDh3068, "For  aI am with you. For I will makeh6213a a fullh3617 endh3617 of allh3605 the nationsh1471 Whereh834h8033 I have drivenh5080 you, Yet I will  bnot makeh6213a a fullh3617 endh3617 of you; But I will  ccorrecth3256 you properlyh4941 And by noh3808 meansh5352 leaveh5352 you unpunishedh5352."
