WEBVTT 00:00.840 --> 00:05.560 Chapter Eight At that time, saith the Lord, they shall bring out the bones of 00:05.560 --> 00:09.140 the kings of Judah, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, 00:09.560 --> 00:12.480 and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of 00:12.480 --> 00:14.060 Jerusalem out of their graves. 00:14.580 --> 00:18.300 And they shall spread them before the sun and the moon, and all the host of heaven, 00:18.400 --> 00:22.620 whom they have loved, and whom they have served, and after whom they have walked, 00:23.100 --> 00:26.220 and whom they have sought, and whom they have worshipped. 00:27.120 --> 00:28.960 They shall not be gathered, nor be buried. 00:29.840 --> 00:34.160 They shall be fordung upon the face of the earth, and death shall be chosen rather 00:34.160 --> 00:39.220 than life by all the residue of them that remain of this evil family, which remain 00:39.220 --> 00:43.260 in all the places, whither I have driven them, saith the Lord of hosts. 00:44.680 --> 00:49.840 Moreover there shall say unto them, Thus saith the Lord, Shall they fall and 00:49.840 --> 00:50.540 not arise? 00:51.340 --> 00:53.040 Shall he turn away and not return? 00:53.700 --> 00:58.760 Why then is this people of Jerusalem slidden back by a perpetual backsliding? 00:59.580 --> 01:01.000 They hold fast a seat. 01:01.580 --> 01:02.860 They refuse to return. 01:03.960 --> 01:06.720 I hearkened and heard, but they spake not aright. 01:07.520 --> 01:11.200 No man repented him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? 01:11.860 --> 01:14.880 Everyone turned to his course as the horse rushed into the battle. 01:15.720 --> 01:20.320 Yea, the stork in the heaven knoweth her appointed times, and the turtle in the 01:20.320 --> 01:23.400 crane, and the swallow observe the time of their coming. 01:24.200 --> 01:26.420 But my people know not the judgment of the Lord. 01:27.600 --> 01:31.460 How do ye say, We are wise, and the law of the Lord is with us? 01:32.240 --> 01:34.240 Lo, certainly in vain made he it. 01:34.740 --> 01:36.620 The pen of the scribes is in vain. 01:37.300 --> 01:39.960 The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken. 01:40.780 --> 01:44.580 Lo, they have rejected the word of the Lord, and what wisdom is in them? 01:45.820 --> 01:49.320 Therefore will I give their wives unto others, and their fields to them that 01:49.320 --> 01:50.060 shall inherit them. 01:50.920 --> 01:54.700 For every one from the least even unto the greatest is given to covetousness. 01:55.240 --> 01:58.500 From the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely. 01:59.500 --> 02:02.220 For they have healed the herd of the daughter of my people slightly, 02:02.740 --> 02:06.000 saying, Peace, peace, when there is no peace. 02:06.860 --> 02:08.860 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? 02:09.400 --> 02:13.020 Nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush. 02:13.900 --> 02:16.080 Therefore shall they fall among them that fall. 02:16.560 --> 02:19.920 In the time of the visitation they shall be cast down, saith the Lord. 02:20.980 --> 02:23.040 I will surely consume them, saith the Lord. 02:23.660 --> 02:27.240 There shall be no grapes on the vine, nor figs on the fig tree, and the leaf 02:27.240 --> 02:30.320 shall fade, and the things that I have given them shall pass away from them. 02:31.240 --> 02:32.220 Why do we sit still? 02:32.820 --> 02:37.140 Assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the defence cities, and let us be silent 02:37.140 --> 02:37.480 there. 02:38.300 --> 02:42.240 For the Lord our God hath put us to silence, and given us water of gall to 02:42.240 --> 02:44.520 drink, because we have sinned against the Lord. 02:45.080 --> 02:48.940 We looked for peace, but no good came, and for a time of health, and behold, 02:49.140 --> 02:49.360 trouble. 02:49.940 --> 02:52.180 The snorting of his horses was heard from Dan. 02:52.700 --> 02:56.340 The whole land trembled at the sound of the neighing of his strong ones. 02:57.080 --> 03:01.400 For they are come, and have devoured the land and all that is in it, the city, 03:01.860 --> 03:03.020 and those that dwell therein. 03:03.920 --> 03:08.280 For behold, I will send serpents, cockatrices among you, which will not be 03:08.280 --> 03:10.960 charmed, and they shall bite you, saith the Lord. 03:11.860 --> 03:15.220 When I would comfort myself against sorrow, my heart is faint in me. 03:15.920 --> 03:19.360 Behold the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people, because of them 03:19.360 --> 03:20.640 that dwell in a far country. 03:21.220 --> 03:22.520 Is not the Lord in Zion? 03:23.020 --> 03:24.160 Is not her king in her? 03:24.900 --> 03:28.600 Why have they provoked me to anger with their graven images, and with strange 03:28.600 --> 03:29.060 vanities? 03:29.860 --> 03:33.920 The harvest is past, the summer has ended, and we are not saved. 03:34.460 --> 03:37.060 For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I hurt. 03:37.540 --> 03:38.200 I am black. 03:38.860 --> 03:40.620 Astonishment hath taken hold on me. 03:41.340 --> 03:42.600 Is there no balm in Gilead? 03:43.060 --> 03:44.240 Is there no physician there? 03:45.060 --> 03:47.760 Why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?
