Bible. Jeremiah
24:029:022 And of them shall be taken up a curse by all the captivity of
Judah which are in Babylon, saying, The LORD make thee like
Zedekiah and like Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in
the fire;
24:029:023 Because they have committed villany in Israel, and have
committed adultery with their neighbours' wives, and have
spoken lying words in my name, which I have not commanded
them; even I know, and am a witness, saith the LORD.
24:029:024 Thus shalt thou also speak to Shemaiah the Nehelamite, saying,
24:029:025 Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying,
Because thou hast sent letters in thy name unto all the people
that are at Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah
the priest, and to all the priests, saying,
24:029:026 The LORD hath made thee priest in the stead of Jehoiada the
priest, that ye should be officers in the house of the LORD,
for every man that is mad, and maketh himself a prophet, that
thou shouldest put him in prison, and in the stocks.
24:029:027 Now therefore why hast thou not reproved Jeremiah of Anathoth,
which maketh himself a prophet to you?
24:029:028 For therefore he sent unto us in Babylon, saying, This
captivity is long: build ye houses, and dwell in them; and
plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them.
24:029:029 And Zephaniah the priest read this letter in the ears of
Jeremiah the prophet.
24:029:030 Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah, saying,
24:029:031 Send to all them of the captivity, saying, Thus saith the LORD
concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite; Because that Shemaiah hath
prophesied unto you, and I sent him not, and he caused you to
trust in a lie:
24:029:032 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will punish Shemaiah
the Nehelamite, and his seed: he shall not have a man to dwell
among this people; neither shall he behold the good that I
will do for my people, saith the LORD; because he hath taught
rebellion against the LORD.
24:030:001 The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
24:030:002 Thus speaketh the LORD God of Israel, saying, Write thee all
the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book.
24:030:003 For, lo, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will bring
again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith the
LORD: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave
to their fathers, and they shall possess it.
24:030:004 And these are the words that the LORD spake concerning Israel
and concerning Judah.
24:030:005 For thus saith the LORD; We have heard a voice of trembling,
of fear, and not of peace.
