Bible. Jeremiah
24:019:010 Then shalt thou break the bottle in the sight of the men that
go with thee,
24:019:011 And shalt say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Even so
will I break this people and this city, as one breaketh a
potter's vessel, that cannot be made whole again: and they
shall bury them in Tophet, till there be no place to bury.
24:019:012 Thus will I do unto this place, saith the LORD, and to the
inhabitants thereof, and even make this city as Tophet:
24:019:013 And the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of
Judah, shall be defiled as the place of Tophet, because of all
the houses upon whose roofs they have burned incense unto all
the host of heaven, and have poured out drink offerings unto
other gods.
24:019:014 Then came Jeremiah from Tophet, whither the LORD had sent him
to prophesy; and he stood in the court of the LORD's house;
and said to all the people,
24:019:015 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I
will bring upon this city and upon all her towns all the evil
that I have pronounced against it, because they have hardened
their necks, that they might not hear my words.
24:020:001 Now Pashur the son of Immer the priest, who was also chief
governor in the house of the LORD, heard that Jeremiah
prophesied these things.
24:020:002 Then Pashur smote Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the
stocks that were in the high gate of Benjamin, which was by
the house of the LORD.
24:020:003 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Pashur brought forth
Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then said Jeremiah unto him, The
LORD hath not called thy name Pashur, but Magormissabib.
24:020:004 For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will make thee a terror to
thyself, and to all thy friends: and they shall fall by the
sword of their enemies, and thine eyes shall behold it: and I
will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and
he shall carry them captive into Babylon, and shall slay them
with the sword.
24:020:005 Moreover I will deliver all the strength of this city, and all
the labours thereof, and all the precious things thereof, and
all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the
hand of their enemies, which shall spoil them, and take them,
and carry them to Babylon.
24:020:006 And thou, Pashur, and all that dwell in thine house shall go
into captivity: and thou shalt come to Babylon, and there thou
shalt die, and shalt be buried there, thou, and all thy
friends, to whom thou hast prophesied lies.
