Jeremiah 27
27
Symbol of the Bonds and Yokes
1In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, #Jer. 27:3, 12, 20; 28:1king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying, 2“Thus says the Lord to me: ‘Make for yourselves bonds and yokes, #Jer. 28:10, 12; Ezek. 4:1; 12:3; 24:3and put them on your neck, 3and send them to the king of Edom, the king of Moab, the king of the Ammonites, the king of Tyre, and the king of Sidon, by the hand of the messengers who come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah. 4And command them to say to their masters, “Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel—thus you shall say to your masters: 5#Ps. 115:15; 146:6; Is. 45:12‘I have made the earth, the man and the beast that are on the ground, by My great power and by My outstretched arm, and #Deut. 9:29; Ps. 115:16; Jer. 32:17; Dan. 4:17, 25, 32have given it to whom it seemed proper to Me. 6#Jer. 28:14And now I have given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, #Jer. 25:9; 43:10; Ezek. 29:18, 20My servant; and #Jer. 28:14; Dan. 2:38the beasts of the field I have also given him to serve him. 7#2 Chr. 36:20So all nations shall serve him and his son and his son’s son, #Jer. 25:12; 50:27; (Dan. 5:26); Zech. 2:8, 9until the time of his land comes; #Jer. 25:14and then many nations and great kings shall make him serve them. 8And it shall be, that the nation and kingdom which will not serve Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, and which will not put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, that nation I will punish,’ says the Lord, ‘with the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand. 9Therefore do not listen to your prophets, your diviners, your dreamers, your soothsayers, or your sorcerers, who speak to you, saying, “You shall not serve the king of Babylon.” 10For they prophesy a #Jer. 23:16, 32; 28:15lie to you, to remove you far from your land; and I will drive you out, and you will perish. 11But the nations that bring their necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serve him, I will let them remain in their own land,’ says the Lord, ‘and they shall till it and dwell in it.’ ” ’ ”
12I also spoke to #Jer. 28:1; 38:17Zedekiah king of Judah according to all these words, saying, “Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and live! 13#(Prov. 8:36); Jer. 27:8; 38:23; (Ezek. 18:31)Why will you die, you and your people, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, as the Lord has spoken against the nation that will not serve the king of Babylon? 14Therefore #Jer. 23:16do not listen to the words of the prophets who speak to you, saying, ‘You shall not serve the king of Babylon,’ for they prophesy #Jer. 14:14; 23:21; 29:8, 9; Ezek. 13:22a lie to you; 15for I have #Jer. 23:21; 29:9not sent them,” says the Lord, “yet they prophesy a lie in My name, that I may drive you out, and that you may perish, you and the prophets who prophesy to you.”
16Also I spoke to the priests and to all this people, saying, “Thus says the Lord: ‘Do not listen to the words of your prophets who prophesy to you, saying, “Behold, #2 Kin. 24:13; 2 Chr. 36:7, 10; Jer. 28:3; Dan. 1:2the vessels of the Lord’s house will now shortly be brought back from Babylon”; for they prophesy a lie to you. 17Do not listen to them; serve the king of Babylon, and live! Why should this city be laid waste? 18But if they are prophets, and if the word of the Lord is with them, let them now make intercession to the Lord of hosts, that the vessels which are left in the house of the Lord, in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem, do not go to Babylon.’
19“For thus says the Lord of hosts #1 Kin. 7:15; 2 Kin. 25:13–17; Jer. 52:17, 20, 21concerning the pillars, concerning the Sea, concerning the carts, and concerning the remainder of the vessels that remain in this city, 20which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did not take, when he carried away #2 Kin. 24:14, 15; 2 Chr. 36:10, 18; Jer. 24:1captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, from Jerusalem to Babylon, and all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem— 21yes, thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning the #Jer. 20:5vessels that remain in the house of the Lord, and in the house of the king of Judah and of Jerusalem: 22‘They shall be #2 Kin. 25:13; 2 Chr. 36:18carried to Babylon, and there they shall be until the day that I #2 Chr. 36:21; Jer. 29:10; 32:5visit them,’ says the Lord. ‘Then #Ezra 1:7; 7:19I will bring them up and restore them to this place.’ ”
