| 1:1 | The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests that were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin: |
| 1:2 | To whom the word of the LORD came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. |
| 1:3 | It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, unto the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah king of Judah, unto the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month. |
| 1:4 | Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, |
| 1:5 | Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. |
| 1:6 | Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child. |
| 1:7 | But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak. |
| 1:8 | Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD. |
| 1:9 | Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth. |
| 1:10 | See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant. |
| 1:11 | Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, what seest thou? And I said, I see a rod of an almond tree. |
| 1:12 | Then said the LORD unto me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten my word to perform it. |
| 1:13 | And the word of the LORD came unto me the second time, saying, What seest thou? And I said, I see a seething pot; and the face thereof is toward the north. |
| 1:14 | Then the LORD said unto me, Out of the north an evil shall break forth upon all the inhabitants of the land. |
| 1:15 | For, lo, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north, saith the LORD; and they shall come, and they shall set every one his throne at the entering of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all the walls thereof round about, and against all the cities of Judah. |
| 1:16 | And I will utter my judgments against them touching all their wickedness, who have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, and worshipped the works of their own hands. |
| 1:17 | Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak unto them all that I command thee: be not dismayed at their faces, lest I confound thee before them. |
| 1:18 | For, behold, I have made thee this day a defenced city, and an iron pillar, and brasen walls against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against the princes thereof, against the priests thereof, and against the people of the land. |
| 1:19 | And they shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail against thee; for I am with thee, saith the LORD, to deliver thee. |
| 1:1 | דברי ירמיהו בן חלקיהו מן הכהנים אשׁר בענתות בארץ בנימן׃ |

| 1:4 | ויהי דבר יהוה אלי לאמר׃ |
| 1:5 | בטרם אצורך בבטן ידעתיך ובטרם תצא מרחם הקדשׁתיך נביא לגוים נתתיך׃ |
| 1:6 | ואמר אהה אדני יהוה הנה לא ידעתי דבר כי נער אנכי׃ |
| 1:7 | ויאמר יהוה אלי אל תאמר נער אנכי כי על כל אשׁר אשׁלחך תלך ואת כל אשׁר אצוך תדבר׃ |
| 1:8 | אל תירא מפניהם כי אתך אני להצלך נאם יהוה׃ |
| 1:9 | וישׁלח יהוה את ידו ויגע על פי ויאמר יהוה אלי הנה נתתי דברי בפיך׃ |
| 1:10 | ראה הפקדתיך היום הזה על הגוים ועל הממלכות לנתושׁ ולנתוץ ולהאביד ולהרוס לבנות ולנטוע׃ |
| 1:11 | ויהי דבר יהוה אלי לאמר מה אתה ראה ירמיהו ואמר מקל שׁקד אני ראה׃ |
| 1:12 | ויאמר יהוה אלי היטבת לראות כי שׁקד אני על דברי לעשׂתו׃ |
| 1:13 | ויהי דבר יהוה אלי שׁנית לאמר מה אתה ראה ואמר סיר נפוח אני ראה ופניו מפני צפונה׃ |
| 1:14 | ויאמר יהוה אלי מצפון תפתח הרעה על כל ישׁבי הארץ׃ |
| 1:15 | כי הנני קרא לכל משׁפחות ממלכות צפונה נאם יהוה ובאו ונתנו אישׁ כסאו פתח שׁערי ירושׁלם ועל כל חומתיה סביב ועל כל ערי יהודה׃ |
| 1:16 | ודברתי משׁפטי אותם על כל רעתם אשׁר עזבוני ויקטרו לאלהים אחרים וישׁתחוו למעשׂי ידיהם׃ |
| 1:17 | ואתה תאזר מתניך וקמת ודברת אליהם את כל אשׁר אנכי אצוך אל תחת מפניהם פן אחתך לפניהם׃ |
| 1:18 | ואני הנה נתתיך היום לעיר מבצר ולעמוד ברזל ולחמות נחשׁת על כל הארץ למלכי יהודה לשׂריה לכהניה ולעם הארץ׃ |
| 1:19 | ונלחמו אליך ולא יוכלו לך כי אתך אני נאם יהוה להצילך׃ |
| 1:1 | Words of Jeremiah son of Hilkiah, of the priests who `are' in Anathoth, in the land of Benjamin, |
| 1:2 | unto whom the word of Jehovah hath been in the days of Josiah son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign, |
| 1:3 | and it is in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah, till the completion of the eleventh year of Zedekiah son of Josiah, king of Judah, till the removal of Jerusalem in the fifth month. |
| 1:4 | And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, |
| 1:5 | `Before I form thee in the belly, I have known thee; and before thou comest forth from the womb I have separated thee, a prophet to nations I have made thee.' |
| 1:6 | And I say, `Ah, Lord Jehovah! lo, I have not known -- to speak, for I `am' a youth.' |
| 1:7 | And Jehovah saith unto me, `Do not say, I `am' a youth, for to all to whom I send thee thou goest, and all that I command thee thou speakest. |
| 1:8 | Be not afraid of their faces, for with thee `am' I to deliver thee, -- an affirmation of Jehovah.' |
| 1:9 | And Jehovah putteth forth His hand, and striketh against my mouth, and Jehovah saith unto me, `Lo, I have put my words in thy mouth. |
| 1:10 | See, I have charged thee this day concerning the nations, and concerning the kingdoms, to pluck up, and to break down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.' |
| 1:11 | And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, `What art thou seeing, Jeremiah?' And I say, `A rod of an almond tree I am seeing.' |
| 1:12 | And Jehovah saith unto me, `Thou hast well seen: for I am watching over My word to do it.' |
| 1:13 | And there is a word of Jehovah unto me a second time, saying, `What art thou seeing?' And I say, `A blown pot I am seeing, and its face `is' from the north.' |
| 1:14 | And Jehovah saith unto me, `From the north is the evil loosed against all inhabitants of the land. |
| 1:15 | For, lo, I am calling for all families of the kingdoms of the north, -- an affirmation of Jehovah -- and they have come, and put each his throne at the opening of the gates of Jerusalem, and by its walls round about, and by all cities of Judah. |
| 1:16 | And I have spoken My judgments with them concerning all their evil, in that they have forsaken Me, and make perfume to other gods, and bow themselves to the works of their own hands. |
| 1:17 | `And thou, thou dost gird up thy loins, and hast arisen, and spoken unto them all that I command thee: be not affrighted because of them, lest I affright thee before them. |
| 1:18 | And I, lo, I have given thee this day for a fenced city, and for an iron pillar, and for brazen walls over all the land, to the kings of Judah, to its heads, to its priests, and to the people of the land; |
| 1:19 | and they have fought against thee, and they prevail not against thee; for with thee `am' I, -- an affirmation of Jehovah -- to deliver thee. |
