Jeremiah 32

1 The word which it came to Jeremiah from with Yahweh (in the year *Q(K)*) tenth of Zedekiah [the] king of Judah that [was] the year eight-teen year of Nebuchadnezzar.

The word that has been to Jeremiah from YHWH in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah—it [is] the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar—

2 And then [the] army of [the] king of Babylon [were] laying siege on Jerusalem and Jeremiah the prophet he was shut up in [the] courtyard of the guard which [was] [the] house of [the] king of Judah.

And then the forces of the king of Babylon are laying siege against Jerusalem, and Jeremiah the prophet has been shut up in the court of the prison that [is] in the house of the king of Judah,

3 Where he had shut up him Zedekiah [the] king of Judah saying why? [are] you prophesying saying thus he says Yahweh here I [am] about to give the city this in [the] hand of [the] king of Babylon and he will capture it.

where Zedekiah king of Judah has shut him up, saying, “Why are you prophesying, saying, Thus said YHWH: Behold, I am giving this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he has captured it;

4 And Zedekiah [the] king of Judah not he will escape from [the] hand of the Chaldeans for certainly he will be given in [the] hand of [the] king of Babylon and it will speak mouth his with mouth his and eyes his (eyes his *Q(K)*) they will see.

and Zedekiah king of Judah does not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, but is certainly given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and his mouth has spoken with his mouth, and his eyes see his eyes,

5 And Babylon he will take Zedekiah and there he will be until give attention to I him [the] utterance of Yahweh if you will fight with the Chaldeans not you will succeed.

and he leads Zedekiah [to] Babylon, and there he is until My inspecting him—a declaration of YHWH—because you fight with the Chaldeans, you do not prosper.”

6 And he said Jeremiah it came [the] word of Yahweh to me saying.

And Jeremiah says, “A word of YHWH has been to me, saying,

7 Here! Hanamel [the] son of Shallum uncle your [is] about to come to you saying buy for yourself field my which [is] at Anathoth for [belongs] to you [the] right of redemption to buy [it].

Behold, Hanameel son of Shallum, your uncle, is coming to you, saying, Buy my field that [is] in Anathoth for yourself, for the right of redemption [is] yours to buy.”

8 And he came to me Hanamel [the] son of uncle my according to [the] word of Yahweh to [the] courtyard of the guard and he said to me buy please field my which [is] at Anathoth which - [is] in [the] land of Benjamin for [belongs] to you [the] right of possession and [belongs] to you the redemption buy [it] for yourself and I knew that [was] [the] word of Yahweh it.

And Hanameel, my uncle’s son, comes to me, according to the word of YHWH, to the court of the prison, and says to me, “Please buy my field that [is] in Anathoth, that [is] in the land of Benjamin, for the right of possession [is] yours, and redemption yours—buy [it] for yourself.” And I know that it [is] the word of YHWH,

9 And I bought the field from with Hanamel [the] son of uncle my which [was] at Anathoth and I weighed out! for him the silver [was] seven shekels and ten the silver.

and I buy the field that [is] in Anathoth from Hanameel, my uncle’s son, and I weigh the money to him—seventeen shekels of silver.

10 And I wrote on the document and I sealed [it] and I caused to witness [it] witnesses and I weighed out the silver on scales.

And I write in a scroll, and seal, and cause witnesses to testify, and weigh the silver in balances;

11 And I took [the] document of the purchase the sealed [one] the order and the conditions and the uncovered [one].

and I take the purchase scroll, the sealed one, according to law and custom, and the open one;

12 And I gave the document the purchase to Baruch [the] son of Neriah [the] son of Mahseiah to [the] eyes of Hanamel uncle my and to [the] eyes of the witnesses who wrote on [the] document of the purchase to [the] eyes of all the Jews who were sitting in [the] courtyard of the guard.

and I give the purchase scroll to Baruch son of Neriah, son of Maaseiah, before the eyes of Hanameel, my uncle’s son, and before the eyes of the witnesses, those writing in the purchase scroll, before the eyes of all the Jews who are sitting in the court of the prison.

13 And I commanded Baruch to eyes their saying.

And I charge Baruch before their eyes, saying,

14 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel take the documents these [the] document of the purchase this and the sealed [one] and [the] document uncovered this and you will put them in a vessel of earthenware so that they may remain days many.

“Thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: Take these scrolls, this purchase scroll, both the sealed one and the open one, and you have put them in an earthen vessel, that they may remain many days.

15 For thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel again they will be bought houses and fields and vineyards in the land this.

For thus said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: Houses and fields and vineyards are bought in this land again.”

16 And I prayed to Yahweh after gave I [the] document of the purchase to Baruch [the] son of Neriah saying.

And I pray to YHWH after my giving the purchase scroll to Baruch son of Neriah, saying,

17 Alas! O Lord Yahweh there! - you you made the heavens and the earth by strength your great and by arm your outstretched not it is [too] difficult for you any thing.

“Aah! Lord YHWH, behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power, and by Your outstretched arm; there is nothing too wonderful for You:

18 [who] does Covenant loyalty to thousands and [who] pays back [the] iniquity of fathers into [the] bosom of children their after them God great mighty [is] Yahweh of hosts name his.

doing kindness to thousands, and repaying iniquity of fathers into the bosom of their sons after them; God, the great, the mighty, YHWH of Hosts [is] His Name;

19 great of Counsel and [the] great of deed[s] who eyes your [are] opened on all [the] ways of [the] children of humankind to give to everyone according to ways his and according to [the] fruit of deeds his.

great in counsel, and mighty in act, in that Your eyes are open on all the ways of the sons of Adam, to give to each according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings;

20 Who you performed signs and wonders in [the] land of Egypt until the day this and in Israel and among humankind and you have made for yourself a name as the day this.

in that you have done signs and wonders in the land of Egypt to this day, and in Israel, and among men, and You make for Yourself a name as [at] this day.

21 And you brought out people your Israel from [the] land of Egypt by signs and by wonders and by a hand strong and by an arm outstretched and with terror great.

And You bring forth Your people Israel from the land of Egypt, with signs and with wonders, and by a strong hand, and by an outstretched arm, and by great fear,

22 And you gave to them the land this which you had sworn to ancestors their to give to them a land flowing of milk and honey.

and you give to them this land that you swore to their fathers to give to them, a land flowing with milk and honey,

23 And they came and they took possession of it and not they listened to voice your (and in law your *Q(K)*) not they walked all that you had commanded to them to do not they did and you have caused to happen to them all the calamity this.

and they come in, and possess it, and they have not listened to Your voice, and have not walked in Your law, all that which You laid a charge on them to do they have not done, and You proclaim all this calamity [to] them.

24 There! the mounds they have come the city to capture it and the city it has been given in [the] hand of the Chaldeans who are fighting on it because of the sword and the famine and the pestilence and [that] which you spoke it has happened and there you [are] seeing [it].

Behold, the [siege] mounds have come to the city to capture it, and the city has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans who are fighting against it, because of the sword, and the famine, and the pestilence; and that which You have spoken has come to pass, and behold, You are seeing.

25 And you you have said to me O Lord Yahweh buy for yourself the field with silver and cause to witness [it] witnesses and the city it has been given in [the] hand of the Chaldeans.

Yet You have said to me, O Lord YHWH, Buy the field for yourself with money, and cause witnesses to testify—and the city has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans!”

26 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah saying.

And the word of YHWH is to Jeremiah, saying,

27 Here! I [am] Yahweh [the] God of all flesh ¿ for me is it [too] difficult any thing.

“Behold, I [am] YHWH, God of all flesh: is anything too wonderful for Me?”

28 Therefore thus he says Yahweh here I [am] about to give the city this in [the] hand of the Chaldeans and in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon and he will capture it.

Therefore, thus said YHWH: “Behold, I am giving this city into the hand of the Chaldeans, and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he has captured it.

29 And they will come the Chaldeans who are fighting on the city this and they will set on fire the city this with fire and they will burn it and the houses which people made smoke on roofs their to Baal and they poured out drink offerings to gods other so as to provoke to anger me.

And the Chaldeans who are fighting against this city have come in, and they have set this city on fire, and have burned it—and the houses on whose roofs they made incense to Ba‘al, and poured out drink-offerings to other gods, so as to provoke Me to anger.

30 For they have been [the] people of Israel and [the] people of Judah only doing the evil in view my since youth their for [the] people of Israel only [are] provoking to anger me by [the] work of hands their [the] utterance of Yahweh.

For the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah have been doing only evil in My eyes from their youth; for the sons of Israel are surely provoking Me with the work of their hands,” a declaration of YHWH.

31 That on anger my and on rage my it has been to me the city this from the day when they built it and until the day this to remove it from on face my.

“For this city has been a cause of My anger and a cause of My fury, even from the day that they built it, and to this day—to turn it aside from before My face,

32 On all [the] evil of [the] people of Israel and [the] people of Judah which they have done to provoke to anger me they kings their officials their priests their and prophets their and everyone of Judah and [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem.

because of all the evil of the sons of Israel, and of the sons of Judah that they have done, so as to provoke Me—they, their kings, their heads, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

33 And they turned to me a back and not a face and I taught them rising early and teaching and not they [were] listening to accept correction.

And they turn the neck to Me, and not the face, and teaching them, rising early and teaching, and they are not listening to accept instruction.

34 And they put detestable things their in the house which it was called name my on it to make unclean it.

And they set their abominations in the house over which My Name is called, so as to defile it.

35 And they built [the] high places of Baal which - [are] in [the] valley of Ben Hinnom to make pass through sons their and daughters their to Molech which not I had commanded them and not it had come up on heart my to do the abomination this so as (to cause to sin *Q(k)*) Judah.

And they build the high places of Ba‘al that [are] in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through to Molech, which I did not command them, nor did it come up on My heart to do this abomination, so as to cause Judah to sin.

36 And now therefore thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel concerning the city this which - you [are] saying it has been given in [the] hand of [the] king of Babylon by the sword and by famine and by pestilence.

And now, therefore, thus said YHWH, God of Israel, concerning this city, of which you are saying, It has been given into the hand of the king of Babylon by sword, and by famine, and by pestilence:

37 Here I [will be] gathering them from all the lands where I have banished them there in anger my and in rage my and in wrath great and I will bring back them to the place this and I will cause to dwell them to security.

Behold, I am gathering them out of all the lands to where I have driven them in My anger, and in My fury, and in great wrath, and I have brought them back to this place, and have caused them to dwell confidently;

38 And they will become for me a people and I I will become for them God.

and they have been to Me for a people, and I am to them for God;

39 And I will give to them a heart one and a way one to fear me all the days for good for them and for children their after them.

and I have given to them one heart and one way, to fear Me all the days, for the good of them and their sons after them:

40 And I will make to them a covenant of perpetuity which not I will turn back from after them to do good to I them and fear my I will put in heart their to not to turn aside from with me.

and I have made a perpetual covenant for them, in that I do not turn back from after them for My doing them good, and I put My fear in their heart, so as not to turn aside from me;

41 And I will rejoice on them to do good to them and I will plant them in the land this in faithfulness with all heart my and with all being my.

and I have rejoiced over them to do them good, and have planted them in this land in truth, with all my heart, and with all My soul.”

42 For thus he says Yahweh just as I have brought to the people this all the calamity great this so I [will] bring on them all the good which I [am] speaking to them.

For thus said YHWH: “As I brought to this people all this great calamity, so I am bringing on them all the good that I am speaking concerning them;

43 And it will be bought the field in the land this which - you [are] saying [is] a desolation it from not human being and an animal it has been given in [the] hand of the Chaldeans.

and the field has been bought in this land of which you are saying, It [is] a desolation, without man and beast, it has been given into the hand of the Chaldeans.

44 Fields for silver people will buy and they will write on the document - and they will seal [it] and cause to witness [it] witnesses in [the] land of Benjamin and in [the] surroundings of Jerusalem and in [the] cities of Judah and in [the] cities of the hill country and in [the] cities of the Shephelah and in [the] cities of the Negev for I will turn back captivity their [the] utterance of Yahweh.

They buy fields with money, so as to write in a scroll, and to seal, and to cause witnesses to testify, in the land of Benjamin, and in outskirts of Jerusalem, and in cities of Judah, and in cities of the hill-country, and in cities of the low country, and in cities of the south, for I return their captivity,” a declaration of YHWH.
