43:1 And it came to pass, [that] when Jeremiah 3414 had made an end 3615 8763 of speaking 1696 8763 unto all the people 5971 all the words 1697 of the LORD 3068 their God 430, for which the LORD 3068 their God 430 had sent 7971 8804 him to them, [even] all these words 1697,

43:2 Then spake 559 8799 Azariah 5838 the son 1121 of Hoshaiah 1955, and Johanan 3110 the son 1121 of Kareah 7143, and all the proud 2086 men 582, saying 559 8802 unto Jeremiah 3414, Thou speakest 1696 8764 falsely 8267: the LORD 3068 our God 430 hath not sent 7971 8804 thee to say 559 8800, Go 935 8799 not into Egypt 4714 to sojourn 1481 8800 there:

43:3 But Baruch 1263 the son 1121 of Neriah 5374 setteth thee on 5496 8688 against us, for to 4616 deliver 5414 8800 us into the hand 3027 of the Chaldeans 3778, that they might put us to death 4191 8687, and carry us away captives 1540 8687 into Babylon 894.

43:4 So Johanan 3110 the son 1121 of Kareah 7143, and all the captains 8269 of the forces 2428, and all the people 5971, obeyed 8085 8804 not the voice 6963 of the LORD 3068, to dwell 3427 8800 in the land 776 of Judah 3063.

43:5 But Johanan 3110 the son 1121 of Kareah 7143, and all the captains 8269 of the forces 2428, took 3947 8799 all the remnant 7611 of Judah 3063, that were returned 7725 8804 from all nations 1471, whither they had been driven 5080 8738, to dwell 1481 8800 in the land 776 of Judah 3063;

43:6 [Even] men 1397, and women 802, and children 2945, and the king's 4428 daughters 1323, and every person 5315 that Nebuzaradan 5018 the captain 7227 of the guard 2876 had left 3240 8689 with Gedaliah 1436 the son 1121 of Ahikam 296 the son 1121 of Shaphan 8227, and Jeremiah 3414 the prophet 5030, and Baruch 1263 the son 1121 of Neriah 5374.

43:7 So they came 935 8799 into the land 776 of Egypt 4714: for they obeyed 8085 8804 not the voice 6963 of the LORD 3068: thus came 935 8799 they [even] to Tahpanhes 8471.

43:8 Then came the word 1697 of the LORD 3068 unto Jeremiah 3414 in Tahpanhes 8471, saying 559 8800,

43:9 Take 3947 8798 great 1419 stones 68 in thine hand 3027, and hide 2934 8804 them in the clay 4423 in the brickkiln 4404, which [is] at the entry 6607 of Pharaoh's 6547 house 1004 in Tahpanhes 8471, in the sight 5869 of the men 582 of Judah 3064;

43:10 And say 559 8804 unto them, Thus saith 559 8804 the LORD 3068 of hosts 6635, the God 430 of Israel 3478; Behold, I will send 7971 8802 and take 3947 8804 Nebuchadrezzar 5019 the king 4428 of Babylon 894, my servant 5650, and will set 7760 8804 his throne 3678 upon 4605 these stones 68 that I have hid 2934 8804; and he shall spread 5186 8804 his royal pavilion 8237 over them.

43:11 And when he cometh 935 8804, he shall smite 5221 8689 the land 776 of Egypt 4714, [and deliver] such [as are] for death 4194 to death 4194; and such [as are] for captivity 7628 to captivity 7628; and such [as are] for the sword 2719 to the sword 2719.

43:12 And I will kindle 3341 8689 a fire 784 in the houses 1004 of the gods 430 of Egypt 4714; and he shall burn 8313 8804 them, and carry them away captives 7617 8804: and he shall array 5844 8804 himself with the land 776 of Egypt 4714, as a shepherd 7462 8802 putteth on 5844 8799 his garment 899; and he shall go forth 3318 8804 from thence in peace 7965.

43:13 He shall break 7665 8765 also the images 4676 of Bethshemesh 1053, that [is] in the land 776 of Egypt 4714; and the houses 1004 of the gods 430 of the Egyptians 4714 shall he burn 8313 8799 with fire 784.(images: Heb. statues, or, standing images)(Bethshemesh: or, The house of the sun)
