Jeremiah 34
The
word
which
came
unto
Jeremiah
from
the
Lord,
when
Nebuchadnezzar
king
of
Babylon,
and
all
his
army,
and
all
the
kingdoms
of
the
earth
of
his
dominion,
and
all
the
people,
fought
against
Jerusalem,
and
a
against
all
the
cities
thereof,
saying,
2 Thus
saith
the
Lord,
the
God
of
Israel;
Go
and
speak
to
Zedekiah
king
of
Judah,
and
tell
him,
Thus
saith
the
Lord;
Behold,
I
will
give
this
city
into
the
hand
of
the
king
of
a
Babylon,
and
he
shall
burn
it
with
fire:
3 And
thou
shalt
not
escape
out
of
his
hand,
but
shalt
surely
be
taken,
and
delivered
into
his
hand;
and
thine
eyes
shall
behold
the
eyes
of
the
king
of
a
Babylon,
and
he
shall
speak
with
thee
mouth
to
mouth,
and
thou
shalt
go
to
Babylon.
4 Yet
hear
the
word
of
the
Lord,
O
Zedekiah
king
of
Judah;
Thus
saith
the
Lord
of
thee,
Thou
shalt
not
die
by
the
sword:
5 But
thou
shalt
die
in
peace:
and
with
the
burnings
of
thy
fathers,
the
former
kings
which
were
before
thee,
so
shall
they
burn
odours
for
thee;
and
they
will
lament
thee,
saying,
Ah
lord!
for
I
have
pronounced
the
word,
saith
the
Lord.
6 Then
Jeremiah
the
prophet
spake
all
these
words
unto
Zedekiah
king
of
Judah
in
Jerusalem,
7 When
the
king
of
Babylon's
army
fought
against
Jerusalem,
and
against
all
the
cities
of
Judah
that
were
left,
against
Lachish,
and
against
Azekah:
for
these
defenced
cities
remained
of
the
cities
of
Judah.
8 This
is
the
word
that
came
unto
Jeremiah
from
the
Lord,
after
that
the
king
Zedekiah
had
made
a
covenant
with
all
the
people
which
were
at
Jerusalem,
to
proclaim
a
liberty
unto
them;
9 That
every
man
should
let
his
manservant,
and
every
man
his
maidservant,
being
an
Hebrew
or
an
Hebrewess,
go
free;
that
none
should
a
serve
himself
of
them,
to
wit,
of
a
Jew
his
brother.
10 Now
when
all
the
princes,
and
all
the
people,
which
had
entered
into
the
covenant,
heard
that
every
one
should
let
his
manservant,
and
every
one
his
maidservant,
go
free,
that
none
should
serve
themselves
of
them
any
more,
then
they
obeyed,
and
let
them
go.
11 But
afterward
they
a
turned,
and
caused
the
servants
and
the
handmaids,
whom
they
had
let
go
free,
to
return,
and
brought
them
into
subjection
for
servants
and
for
handmaids.
12 Therefore
the
word
of
the
Lord
came
to
Jeremiah
from
the
Lord,
saying,
13 Thus
saith
the
Lord,
the
God
of
Israel;
I
made
a
covenant
with
your
fathers
in
the
day
that
I
brought
them
forth
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt,
out
of
the
house
of
bondmen,
saying,
14 At
the
end
of
a
seven
years
let
ye
go
every
man
his
brother
an
Hebrew,
which
hath
been
sold
unto
thee;
and
when
he
hath
served
thee
six
years,
thou
shalt
let
him
go
free
from
thee:
but
your
fathers
hearkened
not
unto
me,
neither
inclined
their
ear.
15 And
ye
were
now
turned,
and
had
done
right
in
my
sight,
in
proclaiming
liberty
every
man
to
his
neighbour;
and
ye
had
made
a
covenant
before
me
in
the
house
which
is
called
by
my
name:
16 But
ye
turned
and
a
polluted
my
name,
and
caused
every
man
his
servant,
and
every
man
his
handmaid,
whom
ye
had
set
at
liberty
at
their
pleasure,
to
return,
and
brought
them
into
subjection,
to
be
unto
you
for
servants
and
for
handmaids.
17 Therefore
thus
saith
the
Lord;
Ye
have
not
hearkened
unto
me,
in
proclaiming
a
liberty,
every
one
to
his
brother,
and
every
man
to
his
neighbour:
behold,
I
proclaim
a
liberty
for
you,
saith
the
Lord,
to
the
sword,
to
the
pestilence,
and
to
the
famine;
and
I
will
make
you
to
be
removed
into
all
the
kingdoms
of
the
earth.
18 And
I
will
give
the
men
that
have
transgressed
my
covenant,
which
have
not
performed
the
words
of
the
covenant
which
they
had
made
before
me,
when
they
a
cut
the
calf
in
twain,
and
b
passed
between
the
parts
thereof,
19 The
princes
of
Judah,
and
the
princes
of
Jerusalem,
the
eunuchs,
and
the
priests,
and
all
the
people
of
the
land,
which
passed
between
the
parts
of
the
calf;
20 I
will
even
a
give
them
into
the
hand
of
their
enemies,
and
into
the
hand
of
them
that
seek
their
life:
and
their
dead
bodies
shall
be
for
meat
unto
the
fowls
of
the
heaven,
and
to
the
beasts
of
the
earth.
21 And
Zedekiah
king
of
Judah
and
his
princes
will
I
give
into
the
hand
of
their
enemies,
and
into
the
hand
of
them
that
seek
their
life,
and
into
the
hand
of
the
king
of
Babylon's
army,
which
are
gone
up
from
you.
22 Behold,
I
will
command,
saith
the
Lord,
and
cause
them
to
return
to
this
city;
and
they
shall
fight
against
it,
and
take
it,
and
burn
it
with
fire:
and
I
will
make
the
cities
of
Judah
a
desolation
without
an
inhabitant.
