Jeremiah 26

1 In [the] beginning of [the] reign of Jehoiakim [the] son of Josiah [the] king of Judah it came the word this from with Yahweh saying.

This message came from the Lord at the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim, son of Josiah king of Judah,

2 Thus - he said Yahweh stand in [the] court of [the] house of Yahweh and you will speak to all [the] cities of Judah who come to bow down [the] house of Yahweh all the words which I have commanded you to speak to them may not you hold back a word.

This is what the Lord says: Go and stand in the Temple courtyard and deliver the whole message I have ordered you to give to everyone who comes from all the towns of Judah to worship there. Don't leave out a single word.

3 Perhaps they will listen and they may turn back everyone from way his evil and I will repent concerning the calamity which I [am] planning to do to them because of [the] wickedness of deeds their.

Maybe they'll they will listen, and each of them will give up their evil ways so that I won't have to carry out the disaster I'm planning to bring down on them because of the evil things they do.

4 And you will say to them thus he says Yahweh if not you will listen to me to walk in law my which I have set before you.

Tell them that this is what the Lord says: If you do not listen to me and follow my law, which I have given you,

5 To listen to [the] words of servants my the prophets whom I [have been] sending to you and rising early and sending and not you have listened.

and if you don't listen to the messages of my servants the prophets—I've sent them to you time and again, but you refused to listen—

6 And I will make the house this like Shiloh and the city (this *Q(k)*) I will make into a curse for all [the] nations of the earth.

then I will destroy this Temple like I did Shiloh, and I will make this city a curse word used by everyone on earth.

7 And they heard the priests and the prophets and all the people Jeremiah speaking the words these in [the] house of Yahweh.

The priests and prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah deliver this message in the Lord's Temple.

8 And it was - when had finished Jeremiah to speak all that he had commanded Yahweh to speak to all the people and they seized him the priests and the prophets and all the people saying certainly you will die.

As soon as he had finished telling everyone all that the Lord had ordered him to say, the priests and prophets and all the people grabbed him, shouting, “You'll die for this!

9 Why? have you prophesied in [the] name of Yahweh saying like Shiloh it will be the house this and the city this it will be desolate from not inhabitant and it assembled all the people to Jeremiah in [the] house of Yahweh.

How dare you claim to speak in the Lord's name here in the Temple and declare that it will be destroyed like Shiloh, and that this city will be left empty and abandoned?” Everyone crowded around Jeremiah threatening him in the Lord's Temple.

10 And they heard - [the] officials of Judah the things these and they came up from [the] house of the king [the] house of Yahweh and they sat at [the] entrance of [the] gate of Yahweh new.

When the leaders of Judah heard what happened they came from the king's palace to the Lord's Temple and sat at the entrance of the New Gate of the Temple to judge the case.

11 And they said the priests and the prophets to the officials and to all the people saying a sentence of death [belongs] to the man this for he has prophesied against the city this just as you have heard with own ears your.

The priests and prophets complained to the leaders and all the people, “This man is deserves the death penalty because he has committed treason by prophesying against this city. You heard it yourselves!”

12 And he said Jeremiah to all the officials and to all the people saying Yahweh he sent me to prophesy against the house this and against the city this all the words which you have heard.

Jeremiah addressed all the leaders and all the people, saying, “The Lord sent me to deliver every word of this prophecy against this Temple as you've heard.

13 And therefore make good ways your and deeds your and listen to [the] voice of Yahweh God your so he may repent Yahweh concerning the calamity which he has spoken on you.

So change your ways and do what's right, and do what Lord your God tells you, so that he won't have to carry out the disaster he has announced he will bring down on you.

14 And I here I [am] in hand your do to me according to the good and according to the right in view your.

As far as I'm concerned, I'm in your hands; do with me whatever you think is good and right.

15 Only - certainly you will know that except [are] about to put to death you me for blood innocent you [are] about to put on yourselves and to the city this and to inhabitants its for in truth he has sent me Yahweh to you to speak in ears your all the words these.

But be careful, because you need to be aware that if you kill me, you will make yourselves, this city, and everyone who lives here guilty of murder, because it's true that the Lord sent me to tell you everything he said.”

16 And they said the officials and all the people to the priests and to the prophets not [belongs] to the man this a sentence of death for in [the] name of Yahweh God our he has spoken to us.

Then the leaders and all the people told the priests and prophets, “This man doesn't deserve the death penalty because he was speaking on behalf of the Lord our God.”

17 And they arose men from [the] elders of the land and they said to all [the] assembly of the people saying.

Some of the country's elders stood up and addressed everyone gathered there.

18 (Micah *Q(K)*) the Morasthite he was prophesying in [the] days of Hezekiah [the] king of Judah and he said to all [the] people of Judah saying thus he says - Yahweh of hosts Zion a field it will be plowed and Jerusalem heaps of ruins it will be and [the] mountain of the house high places of a forest.

“Micah of Moresheth prophesied during the reign of Hezekiah king of Judah. He told all the people of Judah that this is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘Zion will become like a plowed field; Jerusalem will end up a pile of rubble; and the Temple mount will be overgrown with trees.’

19 ¿ Really did they put to death him Hezekiah [the] king of Judah and all Judah ¿ not was he fearing Yahweh and did he entreat [the] face of Yahweh and he repented Yahweh concerning the calamity which he had spoken on them and we [are] about to do an evil great on selves our.

Did Hezekiah king of Judah or anyone else in the country have him killed? Didn't Hezekiah respect the Lord and plead with him? Didn't the Lord change his mind about the disaster he had announced against them? But we are about to bring a great disaster on ourselves!”

20 And also a man he was prophesying in [the] name of Yahweh Uriah [the] son of Shemaiah from Kiriath Jearim and he prophesied on the city this and on the land this like all [the] words of Jeremiah.

At around that time there was another man prophesying in the name of the Lord, Uriah, son of Shemaiah, from Kiriath-jearim. He prophesied against Jerusalem and against the country just as Jeremiah did.

21 And he heard the king Jehoiakim and all warriors his and all the officials words his and he sought the king to put to death him and he heard Uriah and he was afraid and he fled and he went Egypt.

King Jehoiakim and all his military officers and officials heard what he was saying, and the king wanted to have him executed. But when Uriah found out about it, he was frightened and ran away to Egypt.

22 And he sent the king Jehoiakim men Egypt Elnathan [the] son of Achbor and men with him to Egypt.

But King Jehoiakim sent Elnathan, son of Achbor, along with some others.

23 And they brought out Uriah from Egypt and they took him to the king Jehoiakim and he struck him with the sword and he threw corpse his to [the] graves of [the] sons of the people.

They brought Uriah back from Egypt and took him to King Jehoiakim. The king killed him with a sword and had his body thrown into the public graveyard.

24 Nevertheless [the] hand of Ahikam [the] son of Shaphan it was with Jeremiah to not to give him in [the] hand of the people to put to death him.

However, Ahikam, son of Shaphan, took Jeremiah's side so he was not handed over to the people to be killed.
