THEN said the LORD unto me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind could not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020102">2</a>. And it shall come to pass, if they say unto thee, Whither shall we go forth?  then thou shalt tell them, Thus saith the LORD; Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020103">3</a>. And I will appoint over them four kinds, saith the LORD: the sword to slay, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020104">4</a>. And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020105">5</a>. For who shall have pity upon thee, O Jerusalem?  or who shall bemoan thee?  or who shall go aside to ask how thou doest?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020106">6</a>. Thou hast forsaken me, saith the LORD, thou art gone backward: therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, and destroy thee; I am weary with repenting.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020107">7</a>. And I will fan them with a fan in the gates of the land; I will bereave them of children, I will destroy my people, since they return not from their ways.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020108">8</a>. Their widows are increased to me above the sand of the seas: I have brought upon them against the mother of the young men a spoiler at noonday: I have caused him to fall upon it suddenly, and terrors upon the city.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020109">9</a>. She that hath borne seven languisheth: she hath given up the ghost; her sun is gone down while it was yet day: she hath been ashamed and confounded: and the residue of them will I deliver to the sword before their enemies, saith the LORD.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020110">10</a>. Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth!  I have neither lent on usury, nor men have lent to me on usury; yet every one of them doth curse me.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020111">11</a>. The LORD said, Verily it shall be well with thy remnant; verily I will cause the enemy to entreat thee well in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.</li>

<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020113">13</a>. Thy substance and thy treasures will I give to the spoil without price, and that for all thy sins, even in all thy borders.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020114">14</a>. And I will make thee to pass with thine enemies into a land which thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in mine anger, which shall burn upon you.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020115">15</a>. O LORD, thou knowest: remember me, and visit me, and revenge me of my persecutors; take me not away in thy longsuffering: know that for thy sake I have suffered rebuke.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020116">16</a>. Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020117">17</a>. I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand: for thou hast filled me with indignation.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020118">18</a>. Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuseth to be healed?  wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar, and as waters that fail?</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020119">19</a>. Therefore thus saith the LORD, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020120">20</a>. And I will make thee unto this people a fenced brasen wall: and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee: for I am with thee to save thee and to deliver thee, saith the LORD.</li>
<li class="scripturelog_verse_list_item"><a href="?page_id=1020121">21</a>. And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible.</li>
