1When Jeremiah had finished telling all the people all the words of the LORD their God— everything that the LORD had sent him to [say]— 1וַיְהִי֩ כְּכַלּ֨וֹת יִרְמְיָ֜הוּ לְדַבֵּ֣ר אֶל־ כָּל־ הָעָ֗ם אֶת־ כָּל־ דִּבְרֵי֙ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֵיהֶ֔ם אֲשֶׁ֧ר שְׁלָח֛וֹ יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵיהֶ֖ם אֲלֵיהֶ֑ם אֵ֥ת כָּל־ הַדְּבָרִ֖ים הָאֵֽלֶּה׃ ס
2then Azariah son of Hoshaiah, Johanan son of Kareah, and all the arrogant men said to Jeremiah, “You are lying! The LORD our God has not sent you to say, ‘You must not go to Egypt to reside there.’ 2וַיֹּ֨אמֶר עֲזַרְיָ֤ה בֶן־ הוֹשַֽׁעְיָה֙ וְיוֹחָנָ֣ן בֶּן־ קָרֵ֔חַ וְכָל־ הָאֲנָשִׁ֖ים הַזֵּדִ֑ים אֹמְרִ֣ים אֶֽל־ יִרְמְיָ֗הוּ שֶׁ֚קֶר אַתָּ֣ה מְדַבֵּ֔ר לֹ֣א שְׁלָחֲךָ֞ יְהוָ֤ה אֱלֹהֵ֙ינוּ֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר לֹֽא־ תָבֹ֥אוּ מִצְרַ֖יִם לָג֥וּר שָֽׁם׃
3Rather, Baruch son of Neriah is inciting you against us to hand us over to the Chaldeans, so that they may put us to death or exile us to Babylon!” 3כִּ֗י בָּרוּךְ֙ בֶּן־ נֵ֣רִיָּ֔ה מַסִּ֥ית אֹתְךָ֖ בָּ֑נוּ לְמַעַן֩ תֵּ֨ת אֹתָ֤נוּ בְיַֽד־ הַכַּשְׂדִּים֙ לְהָמִ֣ית אֹתָ֔נוּ וּלְהַגְל֥וֹת אֹתָ֖נוּ בָּבֶֽל׃
4So Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the forces disobeyed the command of the LORD to stay in the land of Judah. 4וְלֹֽא־ שָׁמַע֩ יוֹחָנָ֨ן בֶּן־ קָרֵ֜חַ וְכָל־ שָׂרֵ֧י הַחֲיָלִ֛ים וְכָל־ הָעָ֖ם בְּק֣וֹל יְהוָ֑ה לָשֶׁ֖בֶת בְּאֶ֥רֶץ יְהוּדָֽה׃
5Instead, Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the armies took the whole remnant of Judah, those who had returned to the land of Judah from all the nations to which they had been scattered, 5וַיִּקַּ֞ח יוֹחָנָ֤ן בֶּן־ קָרֵ֙חַ֙ וְכָל־ שָׂרֵ֣י הַחֲיָלִ֔ים אֵ֖ת כָּל־ שְׁאֵרִ֣ית יְהוּדָ֑ה אֲשֶׁר־ שָׁ֗בוּ מִכָּל־ הַגּוֹיִם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר נִדְּחוּ־ שָׁ֔ם לָג֖וּר בְּאֶ֥רֶץ יְהוּדָֽה׃
6the men, the women, the children, the king’s daughters, and everyone whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had allowed to remain with Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, as well as Jeremiah the prophet and Baruch son of Neriah. 6אֶֽת־ הַ֠גְּבָרִים וְאֶת־ הַנָּשִׁ֣ים וְאֶת־ הַטַּף֮ וְאֶת־ בְּנ֣וֹת הַמֶּלֶךְ֒ וְאֵ֣ת כָּל־ הַנֶּ֗פֶשׁ אֲשֶׁ֤ר הִנִּ֙יחַ֙ נְבוּזַרְאֲדָ֣ן רַב־ טַבָּחִ֔ים אֶת־ גְּדַלְיָ֖הוּ בֶּן־ אֲחִיקָ֣ם בֶּן־ שָׁפָ֑ן וְאֵת֙ יִרְמְיָ֣הוּ הַנָּבִ֔יא וְאֶת־ בָּר֖וּךְ בֶּן־ נֵרִיָּֽהוּ׃
7So they entered the land of Egypt because they did not obey the voice of the LORD, and they went as far as Tahpanhes. 7וַיָּבֹ֙אוּ֙ אֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרַ֔יִם כִּ֛י לֹ֥א שָׁמְע֖וּ בְּק֣וֹל יְהוָ֑ה וַיָּבֹ֖אוּ עַד־ תַּחְפַּנְחֵֽס׃ ס
8Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah at Tahpanhes: 8וַיְהִ֤י דְבַר־ יְהוָה֙ אֶֽל־ יִרְמְיָ֔הוּ בְּתַחְפַּנְחֵ֖ס לֵאמֹֽר׃
9“In the sight [of the] Jews, pick up some large stones and bury them in the clay of the brick pavement at the entrance to Pharaoh’s palace at Tahpanhes. 9קַ֣ח בְּיָדְךָ֞ אֲבָנִ֣ים גְּדֹל֗וֹת וּטְמַנְתָּ֤ם בַּמֶּ֙לֶט֙ בַּמַּלְבֵּ֔ן אֲשֶׁ֛ר בְּפֶ֥תַח בֵּית־ פַּרְעֹ֖ה בְּתַחְפַּנְחֵ֑ס לְעֵינֵ֖י אֲנָשִׁ֥ים יְהוּדִֽים׃
10Then say to them, ‘This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: I will send for My servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and I will set his throne over these stones that I have embedded, and he will spread his royal pavilion over them. 10וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ אֲלֵיהֶ֡ם כֹּֽה־ אָמַר֩ יְהוָ֨ה צְבָא֜וֹת אֱלֹהֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל הִנְנִ֤י שֹׁלֵ֙חַ֙ וְ֠לָקַחְתִּי אֶת־ נְבוּכַדְרֶאצַּ֤ר מֶֽלֶךְ־ בָּבֶל֙ עַבְדִּ֔י וְשַׂמְתִּ֣י כִסְא֔וֹ מִמַּ֛עַל לָאֲבָנִ֥ים הָאֵ֖לֶּה אֲשֶׁ֣ר טָמָ֑נְתִּי וְנָטָ֥ה אֶת־ [שפרורו] (שַׁפְרִיר֖וֹ) עֲלֵיהֶֽם׃
11He will come and strike down the land of Egypt, bringing death to those destined for death, captivity to those destined for captivity, and the sword to those destined for the sword. 11[ובאה] (וּבָ֕א) וְהִכָּ֖ה אֶת־ אֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם אֲשֶׁ֧ר לַמָּ֣וֶת לַמָּ֗וֶת וַאֲשֶׁ֤ר לַשְּׁבִי֙ לַשֶּׁ֔בִי וַאֲשֶׁ֥ר לַחֶ֖רֶב לֶחָֽרֶב׃
12I will kindle a fire in the temples of the gods of Egypt, and he will burn [those temples] and take [their gods] as captives. So he will wrap himself with the land of Egypt as a shepherd wraps himself in his garment, and he will depart from there unscathed. 12וְהִצַּ֣תִּי אֵ֗שׁ בְּבָתֵּי֙ אֱלֹהֵ֣י מִצְרַ֔יִם וּשְׂרָפָ֖ם וְשָׁבָ֑ם וְעָטָה֩ אֶת־ אֶ֨רֶץ מִצְרַ֜יִם כַּאֲשֶׁר־ יַעְטֶ֤ה הָֽרֹעֶה֙ אֶת־ בִּגְד֔וֹ וְיָצָ֥א מִשָּׁ֖ם בְּשָׁלֽוֹם׃
13He will demolish the sacred pillars of the temple of the sun in Egypt, and he will burn down the temples of the gods of Egypt.” 13וְשִׁבַּ֗ר אֶֽת־ מַצְּבוֹת֙ בֵּ֣ית שֶׁ֔מֶשׁ אֲשֶׁ֖ר בְּאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם וְאֶת־ בָּתֵּ֥י אֱלֹהֵֽי־ מִצְרַ֖יִם יִשְׂרֹ֥ף בָּאֵֽשׁ׃ ס
