WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:04.940 Chapter Fourteen The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah concerning the dearth. 00:30.520 --> 00:35.180 Yea, the hind also carved in the field, and forsook it because there was no grass. 00:35.780 --> 00:40.120 And the wild asses did stand in the high places, they snuffed up the wind like 00:40.120 --> 00:43.380 dragons, their eyes did veil because there was no grass. 00:44.300 --> 00:49.240 O Lord, though our iniquities testify against us, do thou it for thy name's 00:49.240 --> 00:49.540 sake. 00:50.320 --> 00:53.220 For our backslidings are many, we have sinned against thee. 00:53.860 --> 00:58.420 O the hope of Israel, the Saviour thereof in time of trouble, Why shouldst thou be 00:58.420 --> 01:02.600 as a stranger in the land, and as a wayfaring man that turneth aside to tarry 01:02.600 --> 01:03.180 for a night? 01:03.960 --> 01:08.520 Why shouldst thou be as a man astonied, as a mighty man that cannot save? 01:09.280 --> 01:13.280 Yet thou, O Lord, art in the midst of us, and we are called by thy name. 01:14.260 --> 01:17.860 Leave us not, thus saith the Lord unto this people. 01:19.320 --> 01:22.380 Thus have they loved to wander, they have not refrained their feet, 01:22.380 --> 01:24.640 Therefore the Lord does not accept them. 01:25.320 --> 01:28.060 He will now remember their iniquity and visit their sins. 01:29.460 --> 01:33.500 Then said the Lord unto me, Pray not for this people for their good. 01:34.100 --> 01:38.500 When they fast I will not hear their cry, and when they offer burnt offering and an 01:38.500 --> 01:43.180 oblation, I will not accept them, but I will consume them by the sword and 01:43.180 --> 01:44.840 by the famine and by the pestilence. 01:45.840 --> 01:51.120 Then said I, Our Lord God, behold the prophets say unto them, Ye shall not see 01:51.120 --> 01:53.320 the sword, neither shall ye have famine. 01:54.220 --> 01:56.680 But I will give you assured peace in this place. 01:57.420 --> 02:01.460 Then the Lord said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name. 02:02.320 --> 02:06.560 I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them. 02:07.200 --> 02:11.760 They prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of naught, 02:12.160 --> 02:13.360 and the deceit of their heart. 02:14.140 --> 02:17.840 Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning the prophets that prophesy in my name. 02:18.580 --> 02:22.340 And I sent them not, yet they say, Sword and famine shall not be in this 02:22.340 --> 02:22.740 land. 02:23.500 --> 02:25.660 By sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed. 02:26.340 --> 02:29.720 And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem 02:29.720 --> 02:31.460 because of the famine and the sword. 02:32.080 --> 02:35.740 And they shall have none to bury them, them, their wives, nor their sons, 02:36.100 --> 02:36.880 nor their daughters. 02:37.420 --> 02:39.540 But I will pour their wickedness upon them. 02:40.560 --> 02:44.700 Therefore thou shalt say this word unto them, Let mine eyes run down with tears 02:44.700 --> 02:47.100 night and day, and let them not cease. 02:47.860 --> 02:51.720 For the virgin daughter of my people is broken with a great breach, with a very 02:51.720 --> 02:52.540 grievous blow. 02:53.360 --> 02:56.840 If I go forth into the field, then behold the slain with the sword. 02:57.540 --> 03:01.200 And if I enter into the city, then behold them that are sick with famine. 03:01.740 --> 03:05.220 Yea, both the prophet and the priest go about into a land that they know not. 03:06.100 --> 03:07.540 Hast thou utterly rejected Judah? 03:08.220 --> 03:09.740 Hath thy soul loathed Zion? 03:10.260 --> 03:13.240 Why hast thou smitten us, and there is no healing for us? 03:13.820 --> 03:17.460 We look for peace, and there is no good, and for the time of healing, and behold, 03:17.660 --> 03:17.880 trouble. 03:18.620 --> 03:22.800 We acknowledge, O Lord, our wickedness and the iniquity of our fathers, for we have 03:22.800 --> 03:23.740 sinned against thee. 03:24.620 --> 03:27.140 Do not abhor us, for thy name's sake. 03:27.720 --> 03:29.740 Do not disgrace the throne of thy glory. 03:30.500 --> 03:33.440 Remember, break not thy covenant with us. 03:34.460 --> 03:37.300 Are there any among the vanities of the Gentiles that can cause rain? 03:37.300 --> 03:39.280 Or can the heavens give showers? 03:40.500 --> 03:42.540 Art not thou he, O Lord our God? 03:43.300 --> 03:47.040 Therefore we will wait upon thee, for thou hast made all these things.
