For thus saithh559h8804 the LORDh3068, Behold, I will makeh5414h8802 thee a terrorh4032 to thyself, and to all thy friendsh157h8802: and they shall fallh5307h8804 by the swordh2719 of their enemiesh341h8802, and thine eyesh5869 shall beholdh7200h8802 it : and I will giveh5414h8799 all Judahh3063 into the handh3027 of the kingh4428 of Babylonh894, and he shall carry them captiveh1540h8689 into Babylonh894, and shall slayh5221h8689 them with the swordh2719.

O LORDh3068, thou hast deceivedh6601h8765 me, and I was deceivedh6601h8735: thou art strongerh2388h8804 than I, and hast prevailedh3201h8799: I am in derisionh7814 dailyh3117, every one mockethh3932h8802 me. was deceived: or, was enticed

8

For sinceh1767 I spakeh1696h8762, I cried outh2199h8799, I criedh7121h8799 violenceh2555 and spoilh7701; because the wordh1697 of the LORDh3068 was made a reproachh2781 unto me, and a derisionh7047, dailyh3117.

9

Then I saidh559h8804, I will not make mentionh2142h8799 of him, nor speakh1696h8762 any more in his nameh8034. But his word was in mine hearth3820 as a burningh1197h8802 fireh784 shut uph6113h8803 in my bonesh6106, and I was wearyh3811h8738 with forbearingh3557h8771, and I couldh3201h8799 not stay .

10

For I heardh8085h8804 the defamingh1681 of manyh7227, fearh4032 on every sideh5439. Reporth5046h8685, say they , and we will reporth5046h8686 it. All my familiarsh582h7965 watchedh8104h8802 for my haltingh6763h8676h6761, saying , Peradventure he will be enticedh6601h8792, and we shall prevailh3201h8799 against him, and we shall takeh3947h8799 our revengeh5360 on him. All...: Heb. Every man of my peace

11

But the LORDh3068 is with me as a mightyh1368 terrible oneh6184: therefore my persecutorsh7291h8802 shall stumbleh3782h8735, and they shall not prevailh3201h8799: they shall be greatlyh3966 ashamedh954h8804; for they shall not prosperh7919h8689: their everlastingh5769 confusionh3639 shall never be forgottenh7911h8735.

12

But, O LORDh3068 of hostsh6635, that triesth974h8802 the righteoush6662, and seesth7200h8802 the reinsh3629 and the hearth3820, let me seeh7200h8799 thy vengeanceh5360 on them: for unto thee have I openedh1540h8765 my causeh7379.

13

Singh7891h8798 unto the LORDh3068, praiseh1984h8761 ye the LORDh3068: for he hath deliveredh5337h8689 the soulh5315 of the poorh34 from the handh3027 of evildoersh7489h8688.

14

Cursedh779h8803 be the dayh3117 wherein I was bornh3205h8795: let not the dayh3117 wherein my motherh517 bareh3205h8804 me be blessedh1288h8803.

15

Cursedh779h8803 be the manh376 who brought tidingsh1319h8765 to my fatherh1, sayingh559h8800, A manh2145 childh1121 is bornh3205h8795 unto thee; making him veryh8055h8763 gladh8055h8765.

16

And let that manh376 be as the citiesh5892 which the LORDh3068 overthrewh2015h8804, and repentedh5162h8738 not: and let him hearh8085h8804 the cryh2201 in the morningh1242, and the shoutingh8643 at noontideh6256h6672;

17

Because he slewh4191h8790 me not from the wombh7358; or that my motherh517 might have been my graveh6913, and her wombh7358 to be alwaysh5769 greath2030 with me .

18

Wherefore came I forthh3318h8804 out of the wombh7358 to seeh7200h8800 labourh5999 and sorrowh3015, that my daysh3117 should be consumedh3615h8799 with shameh1322?
