  Jeremiah 32-33


32:1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar.
32:2 The army of the king of Babylon was then besieging Jerusalem, and Jeremiah the prophet was confined in the courtyard of the guard in the royal palace of Judah.
32:3 Now Zedekiah king of Judah had imprisoned him there, saying, "Why do you prophesy as you do? You say, "This is what the LORD says
32:4 Zedekiah king of Judah will not escape out of the hands of the Babylonians but will certainly be handed over to the king of Babylon, and will speak with him face to face and see him with his own eyes.
32:5 He will take Zedekiah to Babylon, where he will remain until I deal with him, declares the LORD. If you fight against the Babylonians, you will not succeed.""
32:6 Jeremiah said, "The word of the LORD came to me
32:7 Hanamel son of Shallum your uncle is going to come to you and say, "Buy my field at Anathoth, because as nearest relative it is your right and duty to buy it."
32:8 "Then, just as the LORD had said, my cousin Hanamel came to me in the courtyard of the guard and said, "Buy my field at Anathoth in the territory of Benjamin. Since it is your right to redeem it and possess it, buy it for yourself." "I knew that this was the word of the LORD;
32:9 so I bought the field at Anathoth from my cousin Hanamel and weighed out for him seventeen shekels of silver.
32:10 I signed and sealed the deed, had it witnessed, and weighed out the silver on the scales.
32:11 I took the deed of purchase-- the sealed copy containing the terms and conditions, as well as the unsealed copy--
32:12 and I gave this deed to Baruch son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, in the presence of my cousin Hanamel and of the witnesses who had signed the deed and of all the Jews sitting in the courtyard of the guard.
32:13 "In their presence I gave Baruch these instructions
32:14 "This is what the LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, says
32:15 For this is what the LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, says
32:16 "After I had given the deed of purchase to Baruch son of Neriah, I prayed to the LORD
32:17 "Ah, Sovereign LORD, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.
32:18 You show love to thousands but bring the punishment for the fathers" sins into the laps of their children after them. O great and powerful God, whose name is the LORD Almighty,
32:19 great are your purposes and mighty are your deeds. Your eyes are open to all the ways of men; you reward everyone according to his conduct and as his deeds deserve.
32:20 You performed miraculous signs and wonders in Egypt and have continued them to this day, both in Israel and among all mankind, and have gained the renown that is still yours.
32:21 You brought your people Israel out of Egypt with signs and wonders, by a mighty hand and an outstretched arm and with great terror.
32:22 You gave them this land you had sworn to give their forefathers, a land flowing with milk and honey.
32:23 They came in and took possession of it, but they did not obey you or follow your law; they did not do what you commanded them to do. So you brought all this disaster upon them.
32:24 "See how the siege ramps are built up to take the city. Because of the sword, famine and plague, the city will be handed over to the Babylonians who are attacking it. What you said has happened, as you now see.
32:25 And though the city will be handed over to the Babylonians, you, O Sovereign LORD, say to me, "Buy the field with silver and have the transaction witnessed.""
32:26 Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah
32:27 "I am the LORD, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?
32:28 Therefore, this is what the LORD says
32:29 The Babylonians who are attacking this city will come in and set it on fire; they will burn it down, along with the houses where the people provoked me to anger by burning incense on the roofs to Baal and by pouring out drink offerings to other gods.
32:30 "The people of Israel and Judah have done nothing but evil in my sight from their youth; indeed, the people of Israel have done nothing but provoke me with what their hands have made, declares the LORD.
32:31 From the day it was built until now, this city has so aroused my anger and wrath that I must remove it from my sight.
32:32 The people of Israel and Judah have provoked me by all the evil they have done-- they, their kings and officials, their priests and prophets, the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem.
32:33 They turned their backs to me and not their faces; though I taught them again and again, they would not listen or respond to discipline.
32:34 They set up their abominable idols in the house that bears my Name and defiled it.
32:35 They built high places for Baal in the Valley of Ben Hinnom to sacrifice their sons and daughters to Molech, though I never commanded, nor did it enter my mind, that they should do such a detestable thing and so make Judah sin.
32:36 "You are saying about this city, "By the sword, famine and plague it will be handed over to the king of Babylon"; but this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says
32:37 I will surely gather them from all the lands where I banish them in my furious anger and great wrath; I will bring them back to this place and let them live in safety.
32:38 They will be my people, and I will be their God.
32:39 I will give them singleness of heart and action, so that they will always fear me for their own good and the good of their children after them.
32:40 I will make an everlasting covenant with them
32:41 I will rejoice in doing them good and will assuredly plant them in this land with all my heart and soul.
32:42 "This is what the LORD says
32:43 Once more fields will be bought in this land of which you say, "It is a desolate waste, without men or animals, for it has been handed over to the Babylonians."
32:44 Fields will be bought for silver, and deeds will be signed, sealed and witnessed in the territory of Benjamin, in the villages around Jerusalem, in the towns of Judah and in the towns of the hill country, of the western foothills and of the Negev, because I will restore their fortunes, declares the LORD."
33:1 While Jeremiah was still confined in the courtyard of the guard, the word of the LORD came to him a second time
33:2 "This is what the LORD says, he who made the earth, the LORD who formed it and established it-- the LORD is his name
33:3 "Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know."
33:4 For this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says about the houses in this city and the royal palaces of Judah that have been torn down to be used against the siege ramps and the sword
33:5 in the fight with the Babylonians
33:6 ""Nevertheless, I will bring health and healing to it; I will heal my people and will let them enjoy abundant peace and security.
33:7 I will bring Judah and Israel back from captivity and will rebuild them as they were before.
33:8 I will cleanse them from all the sin they have committed against me and will forgive all their sins of rebellion against me.
33:9 Then this city will bring me renown, joy, praise and honor before all nations on earth that hear of all the good things I do for it; and they will be in awe and will tremble at the abundant prosperity and peace I provide for it."
33:10 "This is what the LORD says
33:11 the sounds of joy and gladness, the voices of bride and bridegroom, and the voices of those who bring thank offerings to the house of the LORD, saying, "Give thanks to the LORD Almighty, for the LORD is good; his love endures forever." For I will restore the fortunes of the land as they were before," says the LORD.
33:12 "This is what the LORD Almighty says
33:13 In the towns of the hill country, of the western foothills and of the Negev, in the territory of Benjamin, in the villages around Jerusalem and in the towns of Judah, flocks will again pass under the hand of the one who counts them," says the LORD.
33:14 ""The days are coming," declares the LORD, "when I will fulfill the gracious promise I made to the house of Israel and to the house of Judah.
33:15 ""In those days and at that time I will make a righteous Branch sprout from David's line; he will do what is just and right in the land.
33:16 In those days Judah will be saved and Jerusalem will live in safety. This is the name by which it will be called
33:17 For this is what the LORD says
33:18 nor will the priests, who are Levites, ever fail to have a man to stand before me continually to offer burnt offerings, to burn grain offerings and to present sacrifices.""
33:19 The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah
33:20 "This is what the LORD says
33:21 then my covenant with David my servant-- and my covenant with the Levites who are priests ministering before me-- can be broken and David will no longer have a descendant to reign on his throne.
33:22 I will make the descendants of David my servant and the Levites who minister before me as countless as the stars of the sky and as measureless as the sand on the seashore.""
33:23 The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah
33:24 "Have you not noticed that these people are saying, "The LORD has rejected the two kingdoms he chose"? So they despise my people and no longer regard them as a nation.
33:25 This is what the LORD says
33:26 then I will reject the descendants of Jacob and David my servant and will not choose one of his sons to rule over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. For I will restore their fortunes and have compassion on them.""

  Hebrews 1


1:1 In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways,
1:2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe.
1:3 The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.
1:4 So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.
1:5 For to which of the angels did God ever say, "You are my Son; today I have become your Father"? Or again, "I will be his Father, and he will be my Son"?
1:6 And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says, "Let all God's angels worship him."
1:7 In speaking of the angels he says, "He makes his angels winds, his servants flames of fire."
1:8 But about the Son he says, "Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever, and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom.
1:9 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy."
1:10 He also says, "In the beginning, O Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands.
1:11 They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment.
1:12 You will roll them up like a robe; like a garment they will be changed. But you remain the same, and your years will never end."
1:13 To which of the angels did God ever say, "Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet"?
1:14 Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?
