Now
Pashur
the
son
of
Immer
the
priest,
who
[was]
also
chief
governor
in
the
house
of
the
LORD,
heard
that
Jeremiah
prophesied
these
things.
2
Then
Pashur
smote
Jeremiah
the
prophet,
and
put
him
in
the
stocks
that
[were]
in
the
high
gate
of
Benjamin,
which
[was]
by
the
house
of
the
LORD.
3
And
it
came
to
pass
on
the
morrow,
that
Pashur
brought
forth
Jeremiah
out
of
the
stocks.
Then
said
Jeremiah
unto
him,
The
LORD
hath
not
called
thy
name
Pashur,
but
Magormissabib.
4
For
thus
saith
the
LORD,
Behold,
I
will
make
thee
a
terror
to
thyself,
and
to
all
thy
friends:
and
they
shall
fall
by
the
sword
of
their
enemies,
and
thine
eyes
shall
behold
[it]:
and
I
will
give
all
Judah
into
the
hand
of
the
king
of
Babylon,
and
he
shall
carry
them
captive
into
Babylon,
and
shall
slay
them
with
the
sword.
5
Moreover
I
will
deliver
all
the
strength
of
this
city,
and
all
the
labours
thereof,
and
all
the
precious
things
thereof,
and
all
the
treasures
of
the
kings
of
Judah
will
I
give
into
the
hand
of
their
enemies,
which
shall
spoil
them,
and
take
them,
and
carry
them
to
Babylon.
6
And
thou,
Pashur,
and
all
that
dwell
in
thine
house
shall
go
into
captivity:
and
thou
shalt
come
to
Babylon,
and
there
thou
shalt
die,
and
shalt
be
buried
there,
thou,
and
all
thy
friends,
to
whom
thou
hast
prophesied
lies.
7
O
LORD,
thou
hast
deceived
me,
and
I
was
deceived:
thou
art
stronger
than
I,
and
hast
prevailed:
I
am
in
derision
daily,
every
one
mocketh
8
For
since
I
spake,
I
cried
out,
I
cried
violence
and
spoil;
because
the
word
of
the
LORD
was
made
a
reproach
unto
me,
and
a
derision,
daily.
9
Then
I
said,
I
will
not
make
mention
of
him,
nor
speak
any
more
in
his
name.
But
[his
word]
was
in
mine
heart
as
a
burning
fire
shut
up
in
my
bones,
and
I
was
weary
with
forbearing,
and
I
could
not
[stay].
10
For
I
heard
the
defaming
of
many,
fear
on
every
side.
Report,
[say
they],
and
we
will
report
it.
All
my
familiars
watched
for
my
halting,
[saying],
Peradventure
he
will
be
enticed,
and
we
shall
prevail
against
him,
and
we
shall
take
our
revenge
on
him.
11
But
the
LORD
[is]
with
me
as
a
mighty
terrible
one:
therefore
my
persecutors
shall
stumble,
and
they
shall
not
prevail:
they
shall
be
greatly
ashamed;
for
they
shall
not
prosper:
[their]
everlasting
confusion
shall
never
be
forgotten.
12
But,
O
LORD
of
hosts,
that
triest
the
righteous,
[and]
seest
the
reins
and
the
heart,
let
me
see
thy
vengeance
on
them:
for
unto
thee
have
I
opened
my
cause.
13
Sing
unto
the
LORD,
praise
ye
the
LORD:
for
he
hath
delivered
the
soul
of
the
poor
from
the
hand
of
evildoers.
14
Cursed
[be]
the
day
wherein
I
was
born:
let
not
the
day
wherein
my
mother
bare
me
be
blessed.
15
Cursed
[be]
the
man
who
brought
tidings
to
my
father,
saying,
A
man
child
is
born
unto
thee;
making
him
very
glad.
16
And
let
that
man
be
as
the
cities
which
the
LORD
overthrew,
and
repented
not:
and
let
him
hear
the
cry
in
the
morning,
and
the
shouting
at
noontide;
17
Because
he
slew
me
not
from
the
womb;
or
that
my
mother
might
have
been
my
grave,
and
her
womb
[to
be]
always
great
[with
me].
18
Wherefore
came
I
forth
out
of
the
womb
to
see
labour
and
sorrow,
that
my
days
should
be
consumed
with
shame?
