20:1 Now
Pashur
the
sonne
of
Immer
the
Priest,
who
was
also
chiefe
gouernor
in
the
house
of
the
Lord,
heard
that
Ieremiah
prophecied
these
things.
20:2 Then
Pashur
smote
Ieremiah
the
Prophet,
and
put
him
in
the
stockes
that
were
in
the
high
gate
of
Beniamin,
which
was
by
the
house
of
the
Lord.
20:3 And
it
came
to
passe
on
the
morrow,
that
Pashur
brought
foorth
Ieremiah
out
of
the
stockes.
Then
sayd
Ieremiah
vnto
him,
The
Lord
hath
not
called
thy
name
Pashur,
but
Magor-missabib.
20:4 For
thus
sayth
the
Lord,
Behold,
I
will
make
thee
a
terrour
to
thy
selfe,
and
to
all
thy
friends,
and
they
shall
fall
by
the
sword
of
their
enemies,
and
thine
eyes
shall
behold
it,
and
I
will
giue
all
Iudah
into
the
hand
of
the
king
of
Babylon,
and
hee
shall
cary
them
captiue
into
Babylon,
and
shall
slay
them
with
the
sword.
20:5 Moreouer,
I
will
deliuer
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
Iudah
will
I
giue
into
the
hand
of
their
enemies
which
shal
spoile
them,
and
take
them
and
cary
them
to
Babylon.
20:6 And
thou
Pashur,
and
all
that
dwell
in
thine
house,
shall
goe
into
captiuitie,
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
prophecied
lies.
20:7 O
Lord,
thou
hast
deceiued
me,
and
I
was
deceiued,
thou
art
stronger
then
I,
and
hast
preuailed:
I
am
in
derision
daily,
euery
one
mocketh
me.
20:8 For
since
I
spake
I
cryed
out,
I
cried
violence
and
spoyle;
because
the
word
of
the
Lord
was
made
a
reproch
vnto
me,
and
a
derision
daily
20:9 Then
I
said;
I
will
not
make
mention
of
him,
nor
speake
any
more
in
his
name.
But
his
word
was
in
mine
heart,
as
a
burning
fire
shut
vp
in
my
bones,
and
I
was
weary
with
forbearing,
and
I
could
not
stay.
20:10 For
I
heard
the
defaming
of
many,
feare
on
euery
side.
Report,
say
they,
and
wee
will
report
it:
all
my
familiars
watched
for
my
halting,
saying;
Peraduenture
he
will
be
enticed:
and
we
shall
preuaile
against
him,
and
we
shall
take
our
reuenge
on
him.
20:11 But
the
Lord
is
with
me
as
a
mighty
terrible
one:
therefore
my
persecutours
shall
stumble,
and
they
shall
not
preuaile,
they
shall
be
greatly
ashamed,
for
they
shall
not
prosper,
their
euerlasting
confusion
shall
neuer
be
forgotten.
20:12 But
O
Lord
of
hostes,
that
tryest
the
righteous,
and
seest
the
reines
and
the
heart,
let
me
see
thy
vengeance
on
them:
for
vnto
thee
haue
I
opened
my
cause.
20:13 Sing
vnto
the
Lord,
praise
yee
the
Lord:
for
hee
hath
deliuered
the
soule
of
the
poore
from
the
hand
of
euill
doers.
20:14 Cursed
be
the
day
wherein
I
was
borne:
let
not
the
day
wherein
my
mother
bare
mee,
be
blessed.
20:15 Cursed
be
the
man
who
brought
tidings
to
my
father,
saying:
A
man
child
is
borne
vnto
thee,
making
him
very
glad.
20:16 And
let
that
man
be
as
the
cities
which
the
Lord
ouerthrew
and
repented
not:
and
let
him
heare
the
cry
in
the
morning,
and
the
shouting
at
noonetide,
20:17 Because
he
slew
me
not
from
the
wombe:
or
that
my
mother
might
haue
beene
my
graue,
and
her
wombe
to
be
alwaies
great
with
me.
20:18 Wherefore
came
I
forth
out
of
the
wombe
to
see
labour
and
sorrow,
that
my
daies
should
be
consumed
with
shame
