KJV · King James Version
1 The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar. 2 For then the king of Babylon’s army besieged Jerusalem: and Jeremiah the prophet was shut up in the court of the prison, which was in the king of Judah’s house. 3 For Zedekiah king of Judah had shut him up, saying, Wherefore dost thou prophesy, and say, Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it; 4 And Zedekiah king of Judah shall not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, but shall surely be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon, and shall speak with him mouth to mouth, and his eyes shall behold his eyes; 5 And he shall lead Zedekiah to Babylon, and there shall he be until I visit him, saith the LORD: though ye fight with the Chaldeans, ye shall not prosper.
6 And Jeremiah said, The word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 7 Behold, Hanameel the son of Shallum thine uncle shall come unto thee, saying, Buy thee my field that is in Anathoth: for the right of redemption is thine to buy it. 8 So Hanameel mine uncle’s son came to me in the court of the prison according to the word of the LORD, and said unto me, Buy my field, I pray thee, that is in Anathoth, which is in the country of Benjamin: for the right of inheritance is thine, and the redemption is thine; buy it for thyself. Then I knew that this was the word of the LORD. 9 And I bought the field of Hanameel my uncle’s son, that was in Anathoth, and weighed him the money, even seventeen shekels of silver.32.9 seventeen…: or, seven shekels and ten pieces of silver 10 And I subscribed the evidence, and sealed it, and took witnesses, and weighed him the money in the balances.32.10 subscribed…: Heb. wrote in the book 11 So I took the evidence of the purchase, both that which was sealed according to the law and custom, and that which was open: 12 And I gave the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, in the sight of Hanameel mine uncle’s son, and in the presence of the witnesses that subscribed the book of the purchase, before all the Jews that sat in the court of the prison.
13 And I charged Baruch before them, saying, 14 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Take these evidences, this evidence of the purchase, both which is sealed, and this evidence which is open; and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may continue many days. 15 For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Houses and fields and vineyards shall be possessed again in this land.
16 Now when I had delivered the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah, I prayed unto the LORD, saying, 17 Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee:32.17 too…: or, hid from thee 18 Thou shewest lovingkindness unto thousands, and recompensest the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them: the Great, the Mighty God, the LORD of hosts, is his name, 19 Great in counsel, and mighty in work: for thine eyes are open upon all the ways of the sons of men: to give every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings:32.19 work: Heb. doing 20 Which hast set signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, even unto this day, and in Israel, and among other men; and hast made thee a name, as at this day; 21 And hast brought forth thy people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs, and with wonders, and with a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with great terror; 22 And hast given them this land, which thou didst swear to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey; 23 And they came in, and possessed it; but they obeyed not thy voice, neither walked in thy law; they have done nothing of all that thou commandedst them to do: therefore thou hast caused all this evil to come upon them: 24 Behold the mounts, they are come unto the city to take it; and the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans, that fight against it, because of the sword, and of the famine, and of the pestilence: and what thou hast spoken is come to pass; and, behold, thou seest it.32.24 mounts: or, engines of shot 25 And thou hast said unto me, O Lord GOD, Buy thee the field for money, and take witnesses; for the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans.32.25 for the: or, though the
26 Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah, saying, 27 Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me? 28 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and he shall take it: 29 And the Chaldeans, that fight against this city, shall come and set fire on this city, and burn it with the houses, upon whose roofs they have offered incense unto Baal, and poured out drink offerings unto other gods, to provoke me to anger. 30 For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have only done evil before me from their youth: for the children of Israel have only provoked me to anger with the work of their hands, saith the LORD. 31 For this city hath been to me as a provocation of mine anger and of my fury from the day that they built it even unto this day; that I should remove it from before my face,32.31 a provocation…: Heb. for my anger 32 Because of all the evil of the children of Israel and of the children of Judah, which they have done to provoke me to anger, they, their kings, their princes, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 33 And they have turned unto me the back, and not the face: though I taught them, rising up early and teaching them, yet they have not hearkened to receive instruction.32.33 back: Heb. neck 34 But they set their abominations in the house, which is called by my name, to defile it. 35 And they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.
36 And now therefore thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, concerning this city, whereof ye say, It shall be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence; 37 Behold, I will gather them out of all countries, whither I have driven them in mine anger, and in my fury, and in great wrath; and I will bring them again unto this place, and I will cause them to dwell safely: 38 And they shall be my people, and I will be their God: 39 And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:32.39 for ever: Heb. all days 40 And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me.32.40 from them: Heb. from after them 41 Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart and with my whole soul.32.41 assuredly: Heb. in truth, or, stability 42 For thus saith the LORD; Like as I have brought all this great evil upon this people, so will I bring upon them all the good that I have promised them. 43 And fields shall be bought in this land, whereof ye say, It is desolate without man or beast; it is given into the hand of the Chaldeans. 44 Men shall buy fields for money, and subscribe evidences, and seal them, and take witnesses in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, and in the cities of the mountains, and in the cities of the valley, and in the cities of the south: for I will cause their captivity to return, saith the LORD.

耶利米被囚
1 犹大王西底家第十年，就是尼布甲尼撒第十八年，从耶和华那里有话临到耶利米。2 那时，巴比伦王的军队正在围困耶路撒冷，耶利米先知被囚禁在犹大王宫中卫兵的院子里。3 因为犹大王西底家把他囚禁起来，说："你为甚么预言：‘耶和华这样说：看哪！我必把这城交在巴比伦王的手中，他必攻取这城；4 犹大王西底家必不能逃脱迦勒底人的手，他必交在巴比伦王的手中；他们必面对面彼此说话，眼对眼互相对看。5 巴比伦王必把西底家带到巴比伦去；西底家必留在那里，直到我眷顾他的时候这是耶和华的宣告。即使你们和迦勒底人作战，你们必不能战胜’？"
耶利米奉命买哈拿篾之田
6 耶利米说："耶和华的话临到我，说：7 ‘看哪！你叔叔沙龙的儿子哈拿篾必来见你，说：请你买下我在亚拿突的那块田地，因为你有近亲的权利和义务去买那田地。’8 我叔叔的儿子哈拿篾果然照着耶和华的话，到卫兵的院子里来见我，对我说：‘请你买下我在便雅悯境内亚拿突的那块田地，因为你有那产业的继承权，以及近亲的权利和义务；请你把它买下吧。’于是我知道这是耶和华的话。9 我就向我叔叔的儿子哈拿篾，买下了在亚拿突的那块田地，称了一百九十三克银子给他。
把田契交给巴录
10 "我在契约上签了名，把契封好了，又请了证人作证，就用天平把银子称给他。11 然后我取了买卖契约，一份是封好的，一份是没有加封的，上面都有各种细则和条件。12 当着我叔叔的儿子哈拿篾眼前，当着那些在买卖契约上签名作证的人眼前，以及当着所有坐在卫兵院子里的犹大人眼前，我把买卖契约交给了玛西雅的孙子、尼利亚的儿子巴录。13 我当着这些人眼前吩咐巴录说：14 ‘万军之耶和华以色列的 神这样说：你要拿这两份买卖契约，就是那封好的和没有加封的，放在一个瓦器里，使它们可以长久保存。15 因为万军之耶和华以色列的 神这样说：将来在这地必再有人买房屋、田地和葡萄园。’
耶利米之祷告
16 "我把买卖契约交给尼利亚的儿子巴录以后，就向耶和华祷告，说：17 ‘主耶和华啊！你看，你曾用大能和伸出来的膀臂创造了天地；在你并没有难成的事。18 你向千万人施慈爱，又把父亲的罪孽都报应在他们的儿女身上。你是伟大、有能力的 神，万军之耶和华是你"你"原文作"他"的名。19 你的计划伟大，你的作为满有能力；你的眼睛睁开，察看世人一切所行的，要照着各人的行为，和各人所作的事应得的结果来报应各人。20 你曾在埃及地行神迹奇事，你在以色列和全人类中间直到今日也是这样，使你自己得了名声，好象今日一样。21 你曾用神迹奇事、有力的手、伸出来的膀臂，和大而可畏的事，把你的子民以色列从埃及地领出来。22 你把这地赐给他们，就是你向他们列祖起誓，要赐给他们的流奶与蜜之地。23 他们进去，得到这地为业，却不听从你的话，也不遵行你的律法；你吩咐他们行的一切事，他们都没有行，因此你使这一切灾祸临到他们身上。24 看哪！敌人已经迫近，筑垒攻取这城。这城要因刀剑、饥荒和瘟疫的缘故，交在攻击他们的迦勒底人手中；你所说的都实现了，你也亲眼看见了。25 但主耶和华啊！是你对我说："你要用银子买下那块田地，请证人作证。"其实这城已经交在迦勒底人的手中了。’"
民必被掳、城必被毁
26 耶和华的话临到耶利米，说：27 "看哪！我是耶和华，是全人类的 神；在我有难成的事吗？28 因此耶和华这样说：‘看哪！我必把这城交在迦勒底人的手中，交在巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒的手中，他必攻取这城。29 攻打这城的迦勒底人必进来，放火烧城，城中的房屋都必烧光，因为这城的居民曾在那些房屋的屋顶上向巴力烧香，向别神浇奠祭，惹我发怒。30 事实上，以色列人和犹大人自幼以来，就专行我眼中看为恶的事；以色列人的手所作的，无不惹我发怒。’这是耶和华的宣告。31 ‘因为这城自从建造的那天，直到今日，都不断惹起我的怒气和烈怒，以致我要把她从我面前除掉。32 这是因为以色列人和犹大人的一切恶行，就是他们和他们的君王、领袖、祭司、先知，以及犹大每一个人和耶路撒冷居民所行的，都惹我发怒。33 他们以背向我，不以脸向我；我不断教导他们，他们却不肯听从，不接受管教；34 竟把他们可憎的偶像安放在称为我名下的殿中，污秽了这殿。35 他们在欣嫩子谷中，建造了巴力的邱坛，使自己的儿女经火献给摩洛。这不是我吩咐的，也没有在我心里想过；他们竟行了这可憎恶的事，使犹大犯罪。’
回归故土的应许
36 "论到这城，就是你们说：‘因为刀剑、饥荒和瘟疫的缘故，交在巴比伦王手中的’，现在耶和华以色列的 神却这样说：37 ‘看哪！我曾在怒气、烈怒和大忿怒中，把以色列人赶逐到各地，将来我必从那里把他们招聚出来，领他们回到这地方，使他们安然居住。38 他们必作我的子民，我也必作他们的 神。39 我要使他们有同一的心志和同一的行为，终生敬畏我，使他们和他们的子孙都得到福乐。40 我要和他们立永远的约，我必不离开他们，必使他们得到福乐；我也必把敬畏我的心赐给他们，使他们不会离开我。41 我必喜欢他们，使他们得到福乐；我必全心全意、真诚地把他们栽种在这地上。’
42 "因为耶和华这样说：‘我怎样使这一切大灾祸临到这人民，我也必照样使我应许他们的福乐临到他们。43 你们说："这地荒凉，没有人烟，也没有牲畜，是交在迦勒底人手中的。"但将来在这地上，必有人买卖田地。44 在便雅悯地，在耶路撒冷周围的各处，在犹大各城，以及在山地、高地和南地的各城，人必用银子买卖田地，在地契上签名，把契封好，又请证人作证；因为我必使他们被掳的人归回。’"这是耶和华的宣告。
