1 and to be in/on/with year [the] he/she/it in/on/with first: beginning kingdom Zedekiah king Judah (in/on/with year *Q(K)*) [the] fourth in/on/with month [the] fifth to say to(wards) me Hananiah son: child Azzur [the] prophet which from Gibeon in/on/with house: temple LORD to/for eye: before(the eyes) [the] priest and all [the] people to/for to say

In the fifth month of that same year, the fourth year, near the beginning of the reign of King Zedekiah of Judah, the prophet Hananiah son of Azzur, who was from Gibeon, said to me in the house of the LORD in the presence of the priests and all the people:

2 thus to say LORD Hosts God Israel to/for to say to break [obj] yoke king Babylon

“This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.

3 in/on/with still year day I to return: return to(wards) [the] place [the] this [obj] all article/utensil house: temple LORD which to take: take Nebuchadnezzar king Babylon from [the] place [the] this and to come (in): bring them Babylon

Within two years I will restore to this place all the articles of the house of the LORD that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon removed from here and carried to Babylon.

4 and [obj] Jeconiah son: child Jehoiakim king Judah and [obj] all captivity Judah [the] to come (in): come Babylon [to] I to return: return to(wards) [the] place [the] this utterance LORD for to break [obj] yoke king Babylon

And I will restore to this place Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, along with all the exiles from Judah who went to Babylon,’ declares the LORD, ‘for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.’”

5 and to say Jeremiah [the] prophet to(wards) Hananiah [the] prophet to/for eye: before(the eyes) [the] priest and to/for eye: before(the eyes) all [the] people [the] to stand: stand in/on/with house: temple LORD

Then the prophet Jeremiah replied to the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests and all the people who were standing in the house of the LORD.

6 and to say Jeremiah [the] prophet amen so to make: do LORD to arise: establish LORD [obj] word your which to prophesy to/for to return: return article/utensil house: temple LORD and all [the] captivity from Babylon to(wards) [the] place [the] this

“Amen!” Jeremiah said. “May the LORD do so! May the LORD fulfill the words you have prophesied, and may He restore the articles of His house and all the exiles back to this place from Babylon.

7 surely to hear: hear please [the] word [the] this which I to speak: speak in/on/with ear: hearing your and in/on/with ear: hearing all [the] people

Nevertheless, listen now to this message I am speaking in your hearing and in the hearing of all the people.

8 [the] prophet which to be to/for face: before my and to/for face: before your from [the] forever: antiquity and to prophesy to(wards) land: country/planet many and upon kingdom great: large to/for battle and to/for distress: harm and to/for pestilence

The prophets of old who preceded you and me prophesied war, disaster, and plague against many lands and great kingdoms.

9 [the] prophet which to prophesy to/for peace in/on/with to come (in): come word [the] prophet to know [the] prophet which to send: depart him LORD in/on/with truth: true

As for the prophet who prophesies peace, only if the word of the prophet comes true will the prophet be recognized as one the LORD has truly sent.”

10 and to take: take Hananiah [the] prophet [obj] [the] yoke from upon neck Jeremiah [the] prophet and to break him

Then the prophet Hananiah took the yoke off the neck of Jeremiah the prophet and broke it.

11 and to say Hananiah to/for eye: before(the eyes) all [the] people to/for to say thus to say LORD thus to break [obj] yoke Nebuchadnezzar king Babylon in/on/with still year day (from upon *L(abh)*) neck all [the] nation and to go: went Jeremiah [the] prophet to/for way: journey his

And in the presence of all the people Hananiah proclaimed, “This is what the LORD says: ‘In this way, within two years I will break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon off the neck of all the nations.’” At this, Jeremiah the prophet went on his way.

12 and to be word LORD to(wards) Jeremiah after to break Hananiah [the] prophet [obj] [the] yoke from upon neck Jeremiah [the] prophet to/for to say

But shortly after Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke off his neck, the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:

13 to go: went and to say to(wards) Hananiah to/for to say thus to say LORD yoke tree: wood to break and to make underneath: instead them yoke iron

“Go and tell Hananiah that this is what the LORD says: ‘You have broken a yoke of wood, but in its place you have fashioned a yoke of iron.’

14 for thus to say LORD Hosts God Israel yoke iron to give: put upon neck all [the] nation [the] these to/for to serve [obj] Nebuchadnezzar king Babylon and to serve him and also [obj] living thing [the] land: country to give: give to/for him

For this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘I have put a yoke of iron on the neck of all these nations to make them serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and they will serve him. I have even given him control of the beasts of the field.’”

15 and to say Jeremiah [the] prophet to(wards) Hananiah [the] prophet to hear: hear please Hananiah not to send: depart you LORD and you(m. s.) to trust [obj] [the] people [the] this upon deception

Then the prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah, “Listen, Hananiah! The LORD did not send you, but you have persuaded this people to trust in a lie.

16 to/for so thus to say LORD look! I to send: depart you from upon face: surface [the] land: planet [the] year you(m. s.) to die for revolt to speak: speak to(wards) LORD

Therefore this is what the LORD says: ‘I am about to remove you from the face of the earth. You will die this year because you have preached rebellion against the LORD.’”

17 and to die Hananiah [the] prophet in/on/with year [the] he/she/it in/on/with month [the] seventh

And in the seventh month of that very year, the prophet Hananiah died.
