Jeremiah 17

1 The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, With the point of a diamond, Graven on the tablet of their heart, And on the horns of your altars,

[the] sin of Judah [is] inscribed with a stylus of iron with a point of flint [is] engraved on [the] tablet of heart their and to [the] horns of altars your.

2 As their sons remember their altars and their shrines, By the green tree, by the high hills.

When remember children their altars their and Asherah poles their at tree[s] luxuriant on hills high.

3 O My mountain in the field — thy strength, All thy treasures — for a prey I give, Thy high places for sin in all thy borders.

Mountain my in the field wealth your all treasures your to plunder I will give high places your for sin in all territories your.

4 And thou hast let go — even through thyself, Of thine inheritance that I gave to thee, And I have caused thee to serve thine enemies, In a land that thou hast not known, For a fire ye have kindled in Mine anger, Unto the age it doth burn.

And you will let fall and in you from inheritance your which I gave to you and I will make serve you enemies your in land which not you know for a fire you have kindled in anger my until perpetuity it will burn.

5 Thus said Jehovah: Cursed [is] the man who doth trust in man, And hath made flesh his arm, And from Jehovah whose heart turneth.

Thus - he says Yahweh [is] cursed the man who he trusts in humankind and he makes flesh strength his and from Yahweh it turns aside heart his.

6 And he hath been as a naked thing in a desert, And doth not see when good cometh, And hath inhabited parched places in a wilderness, A salt land, and not inhabited.

And he will be like a bush in the desert plain and not he will see if it will come good and he will dwell parched places in the wilderness a land of saltiness and not anyone dwells.

7 Blessed [is] the man who trusteth in Jehovah, And whose confidence hath been Jehovah.

[is] blessed The man who he trusts in Yahweh and he is Yahweh trust his.

8 And hath been as a tree planted by waters, And by a rivulet he sendeth forth his roots, And he doth not see when heat cometh, And his leaf hath been green, And in a year of dearth he is not sorrowful, Nor doth he cease from making fruit.

And he will be like a tree - planted at water and [which] at a stream it sends out roots its and not (he will see *Q(K)*) if it will come heat and it will be leafage its luxuriant and in a year of drought not it will be anxious and not it will cease from producing fruit.

9 Crooked [is] the heart above all things, And it [is] incurable — who doth know it?

[is] deceitful The heart more than everything and [is] incurable it who? will he know it.

10 I Jehovah do search the heart, try the reins, Even to give to each according to his way, According to the fruit of his doings.

I Yahweh [am] searching [the] heart [am] testing [the] kidneys to give to everyone (according to ways his *Q(K)*) according to [the] fruit of deeds his.

11 A partridge hatching, and not bringing forth, [Is] one making wealth, and not by right, In the midst of his days he doth forsake it, And in his latter end — he is a fool.

A partridge [which] it gathers a brood and not it has laid [one who] makes wealth and not with justice in [the] middle of (days his *Q(K)*) it will leave him and at end his he will be a fool.

12 A throne of honour on high from the beginning, The place of our sanctuary,

[is] a throne of Glory a high place from first [time] [the] place of sanctuary our.

13 The hope of Israel [is] Jehovah, All forsaking Thee are ashamed, And 'My apostates' in the earth are written, For they have forsaken Jehovah, A fountain of living waters.

O hope of Israel O Yahweh all [those who] forsake you they will be ashamed (and disloyal [ones] my *Q(K)*) in the land they will be written down for they have forsaken [the] spring of water living Yahweh.

14 Heal me, O Jehovah, and I am healed, Save me, and I am saved, for my praise [art] Thou.

Heal me O Yahweh so I may be healed save me so let me be saved for [are] praise my you.

15 Lo, they are saying unto me: 'Where [is] the word of Jehovah? pray, let it come.'

Here! they [are] saying to me where? [is] [the] word of Yahweh let it come please.

16 And I hastened not from feeding after Thee, And the desperate day I have not desired, Thou — Thou hast known, The produce of my lips, before Thy face it hath been,

And I not I have hastened - from a shepherd after you and a day incurable not I have desired you you know [the] utterance of lips my before face your it was.

17 Be not Thou to me for a terror, My hope [art] Thou in a day of evil.

May not you become to me an object of terror [are] refuge my you in a day of calamity.

18 Let my pursuers be ashamed, and let not me be ashamed — me! Let them be affrighted, and let not me be affrighted — me! Bring in on them a day of evil, And a second time [with] destruction destroy them.

Let them be put to shame pursuers my and may not I be put to shame I let them be dismayed they and may not I be dismayed I bring on them a day of calamity and double destruction destroy them.

19 Thus said Jehovah unto me: 'Go, and thou hast stood in the gate of the sons of the people, by which kings of Judah come in, and by which they go out, and in all gates of Jerusalem,

Thus he said Yahweh to me go and you will stand in [the] gate of [the] sons of (the people *Q(K)*) which they go in it [the] kings of Judah and which they go out in it and in all [the] gates of Jerusalem.

20 and thou hast said unto them: Hear a word of Jehovah, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all inhabitants of Jerusalem, who are coming in by these gates,

And you will say to them hear [the] word of Yahweh O kings of Judah and all Judah and all [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem who go in the gates these.

21 Thus said Jehovah, Take ye heed to yourselves, And ye bear not a burden on the day of rest, Nor have ye brought [it] in by the gates of Jerusalem.

Thus he says Yahweh take heed to lives your and may not you carry a burden on [the] day of the sabbath and you will bring [it] in [the] gates of Jerusalem.

22 Nor do ye take out a burden from your houses on the day of rest, Yea, any work ye do not do, And ye have sanctified the day of rest, As I have commanded your fathers.

And not you must bring out a burden from houses your on [the] day of the sabbath and any work not you must do and you will set apart as holy [the] day of the sabbath just as I commanded ancestors your.

23 And they have not hearkened nor inclined their ear, And they stiffen their neck not to hear, And not to receive instruction.

And not they listened and not they inclined ear their and they stiffened neck their to not (to listen *Q(K)*) and to not to accept correction.

24 And it hath been, if ye certainly hearken unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah, So as not to bring in a burden By the gates of this city on the day of rest, And to sanctify the day of rest, So as not to do in it any work —

And it will be certainly [if] you will listen! to me [the] utterance of Yahweh to not - to bring a burden in [the] gates of the city this on [the] day of the sabbath and to set apart as holy [the] day of the sabbath to not to do (on it *Q(K)*) any work.

25 Then entered by the gates of this city have kings and princes, Sitting on the throne of David, Riding in a chariot, and on horses, They, and their princes, the man of Judah, And inhabitants of Jerusalem, And this city hath remained to the age.

And they will come in [the] gates of the city this kings - and princes [who] sit on [the] throne of David [who] ride - in chariot[s] and on horses they and officials their everyone of Judah and [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem and it will remain the city this for ever.

26 And they have come in from cities of Judah, And from suburbs of Jerusalem, And from the land of Benjamin, And from the low country, And from the hill-country, and from the south, Bringing in burnt-offering, and sacrifice, And present, and frankincense, And bringing praise [to] the house of Jehovah.

And they will come from [the] cities of Judah and from round about Jerusalem and from [the] land of Benjamin and from the Shephelah and from the hill country and from the Negev [those who] bring burnt offering and sacrifice and grain offering and frankincense and [those who] bring a thank-offering [the] house of Yahweh.

27 And if ye do not hearken unto me to sanctify the day of rest, And so as not to bear a burden, And to come in at the gates of Jerusalem on the day of rest, Then I have kindled a fire in its gates, And it hath consumed the high places of Jerusalem, And it is not quenched!'

And if not you will listen to me to set apart as holy [the] day of the sabbath and to not - to carry a burden and to go in [the] gates of Jerusalem on [the] day of the sabbath and I will kindle a fire in gates its and it will consume [the] fortresses of Jerusalem and not it will be extinguished.
