Jeremiah Prays and God Explains

16 ¶ “After° I had given° the deed° of purchase° to Baruch° the son° of Neriah°, then I aprayed° to the LORD°, saying°, 17aAh° Lord° IGOD°! Behold°, You have bmade° the heavens° and the earth° by Your great° power° and by Your outstretched° arm°! cNothing°°° is too° difficult° for You, 18 who ashows° lovingkindness° to thousands°, but brepays° the iniquity° of fathers° into the bosom° of their children° after° them, O cgreat° and dmighty° God°. The eLORD° of hosts° is His name°; 19 agreat° in counsel° and mighty° in deed°, whose° beyes° are open° to all° the ways° of the sons° of men°, cgiving° to everyone° according to his ways° and according to the fruit° of his deeds°; 20 who° has aset° signs° and wonders° in the land° of Egypt°, [and] even to this° day° both in Israel° and among mankind°; and You have bmade° a name° for Yourself, as at this° day°. 21 You abrought° Your people° Israel° out of the land° of Egypt° with signs° and with wonders°, and with a strong° hand° and with an outstretched° arm° and with great° terror°; 22 and gave° them this° land°, which° You aswore° to their forefathers° to give° them, a land° flowing° with milk° and honey°. 23 They acame° in and took° possession° of it, but they bdid not obey° Your voice° or cwalk° in Your law°; they have done° nothing° of all° that You commanded° them to do°; therefore You have made dall° this° calamity° come° upon them. 24 Behold°, the asiege° ramps° have reached° the city° to take° it; and the city° is bgiven° into the hand° of the Chaldeans° who fight° against° it, because°° of the csword°, the famine° and the pestilence°; and what° You have spoken° has dcome° to pass°; and behold°, You see° [it]. 25 You have said° to me, O Lord° IGOD°, “Buy° for yourself the field° with money° and call° in witnesses°”—although the city° is given° into the hand° of the Chaldeans°.’”

Jeremiah, being imprisoned by Zedekiah for his prophecy,

1 ¶ The wordº that² came² to² Jeremiahº from²² the LORDº in the tenthº yearº of Zedekiahº kingº of Judah,º which² [was] the eighteenthºº¹ yearº of Nebuchadrezzar.º 2 For then² the kingº of Babylon'sº armyº besiegedºª² Jerusalem:º and Jeremiahº the prophetº was² shut upºª in the courtº of the prison,º which² [was] in the kingº of Judah'sº house.º 3 For² Zedekiahº kingº of Judahº had shut him up,ºª saying,ºª Wherefore² dost thou² prophesy,ºª and say,ºª Thus² saithºª the LORD,º Behold,² I will giveºª² this² cityº into the handº of the kingº of Babylon,º and he shall takeºª it; 4 And Zedekiahº kingº of Judahº shall not² escapeºª out of the handº² of the Chaldeans,º but² shall surely¹ª be deliveredºª into the handº of the kingº of Babylon,º and shall speakºª with² him mouthº to mouth,º and his eyesº shall beholdºª² his eyes;º 5 And he shall lead¹ª²² Zedekiahº to Babylon,º and there² shall he be² until² I visitºª him, saithºª the LORD:º though² ye fightºª with² the Chaldeans,º ye shall not² prosper.ºª

16 ¶ Now whenº I had deliveredºª² the evidenceº of the purchaseº unto² Baruchº the sonº of Neriah,º I prayedºª unto² the LORD,º saying,ºª 17 Ahº Lordº GOD!º behold,² thou² hast madeºª² the heavenº and the earthº by thy greatº powerº and stretched outºª arm,º [and] there is nothingº²² too hardºª for² thee: 18 Thou shewestºª lovingkindnessº unto thousands,º and recompensestºª the iniquityº of the fathersº into² the bosomº of their childrenº afterº them: the Great,º the Mightyº God,º the LORDº of hosts,º [is] his name,º 19 Greatº in counsel,º and mightyº in work:º for² thine eyesº [are] openºª upon² all² the waysº of the sonsº of men:º to giveºª every oneº according to his ways,º and according to the fruitº of his doings:º 20 Which² hast setºª signsº and wondersº in the landº of Egypt,º [even] unto² this² day,º and in Israel,º and among [other] men;º and hast madeºª thee a name,º as at this² day;º 21 And hast brought forthºª² thy peopleº² Israelº out of the landº² of Egyptº with signs,º and with wonders,º and with a strongº hand,º and with a stretched outºª arm,º and with greatº terror;º 22 And hast givenºª them² this² land,º which² thou didst swearºª to their fathersº to giveºª them, a landº flowingºª with milkº and honey;º 23 And they came² in,¹ª and possessedºª it; but they obeyedºª not² thy voice,º neither² walkedºª in thy law;º they have doneºª² nothing² of all² that² thou commandedstºª them to do:ºª therefore thou hast caused² all² this² evilº to come¹ª upon² them: 24 Behold² the mounts,º they are comeºª unto the cityº to takeºª it; and the cityº is givenºª into the handº of the Chaldeans,º that fightºª against² it, becauseº² of the sword,º and of the famine,º and of the pestilence:º and what² thou hast spokenºª is come to pass;² and, behold,² thou seestºª [it]. 25 And thou² hast saidºª unto² me, O Lordº GOD,º Buyºª thee the fieldº for money,º and takeºª witnesses;º for the cityº is givenºª into the handº of the Chaldeans.º

God confirmeth the captivity for their sins,
