Jer 34:1 The word which came unto Jeremiah from the LORD, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth of his dominion, and all the people, fought against Jerusalem, and against all the cities thereof, saying,

kōh-’āmar yəhwāh ’ĕlōhê yiśərā’ēl hālōḵ wə’āmarətā ’el-ṣiḏəqiyyāhû meleḵ yəhûḏāh wə’āmarətā ’ēlāyw kōh ’āmar yəhwāh hinənî nōṯēn ’eṯ-hā‘îr hazzō’ṯ bəyaḏ meleḵ-bāḇel ûśərāp̱āhh bā’ēš

Jer 34:2 Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel; Go and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire:

wə’attāh lō’ ṯimmālēṭ miyyāḏô kî tāp̱ōś tittāp̱ēś ûḇəyāḏô tinnāṯēn wə‘êneyḵā ’eṯ-‘ênê meleḵ-bāḇel tirə’eynāh ûp̱îhû ’eṯ-pîḵā yəḏabbēr ûḇāḇel tāḇô’

Jer 34:3 And thou shalt not escape out of his hand, but shalt surely be taken, and delivered into his hand; and thine eyes shall behold the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he shall speak with thee mouth to mouth, and thou shalt go to Babylon.

’aḵ šəma‘ dəḇar-yəhwāh ṣiḏəqiyyāhû meleḵ yəhûḏāh kōh-’āmar yəhwāh ‘āleyḵā lō’ ṯāmûṯ beḥāreḇ

Jer 34:4 Yet hear the word of the LORD, O Zedekiah king of Judah; Thus saith the LORD of thee, Thou shalt not die by the sword:

bəšālôm tāmûṯ ûḵəmiśərəp̱ôṯ ’ăḇôṯeyḵā hamməlāḵîm hāri’šōnîm ’ăšer-hāyû ləp̱āneyḵā kēn yiśərəp̱û-lāḵ wəhôy ’āḏôn yisəpəḏû-lāḵ kî-ḏāḇār ’ănî-ḏibbarətî nə’um-yəhwāh

Jer 34:5 But thou shalt die in peace: and with the burnings of thy fathers, the former kings which were before thee, so shall they burn odours for thee; and they will lament thee, saying, Ah lord! for I have pronounced the word, saith the LORD.

wayəḏabbēr yirəməyāhû hannāḇî’ ’el-ṣiḏəqiyyāhû meleḵ yəhûḏāh ’ēṯ kāl-haddəḇārîm hā’ēlleh bîrûšālāim

Jer 34:6 Then Jeremiah the prophet spake all these words unto Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem,

wəḥêl meleḵ-bāḇel niləḥāmîm ‘al-yərûšālaim wə‘al kāl-‘ārê yəhûḏāh hannôṯārôṯ ’el-lāḵîš wə’el-‘ăzēqāh kî hēnnāh nišə’ărû bə‘ārê yəhûḏāh ‘ārê miḇəṣār

Jer 34:7 When the king of Babylon's army fought against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish, and against Azekah: for these defenced cities remained of the cities of Judah.

haddāḇār ’ăšer-hāyāh ’el-yirəməyāhû mē’ēṯ yəhwāh ’aḥărê kərōṯ hammeleḵ ṣiḏəqiyyāhû bərîṯ ’eṯ-kāl-hā‘ām ’ăšer bîrûšālaim liqərō’ lāhem dərôr

Jer 34:8 This is the word that came unto Jeremiah from the LORD, after that the king Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people which were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty unto them;

ləšallaḥ ’îš ’eṯ-‘aḇədô wə’îš ’eṯ-šip̱əḥāṯô hā‘iḇərî wəhā‘iḇəriyyāh ḥāp̱əšîm ləḇilətî ‘ăḇāḏ-bām bîhûḏî ’āḥîhû ’îš

Jer 34:9 That every man should let his manservant, and every man his maidservant, being an Hebrew or an Hebrewess, go free; that none should serve himself of them, to wit, of a Jew his brother.

wayyišəmə‘û ḵāl-haśśārîm wəḵāl-hā‘ām ’ăšer-bā’û ḇabbərîṯ ləšallaḥ ’îš ’eṯ-‘aḇədô wə’îš ’eṯ-šip̱əḥāṯô ḥāp̱əšîm ləḇilətî ‘ăḇāḏ-bām ‘ôḏ wayyišəmə‘û wayəšallēḥû

Jer 34:10 Now when all the princes, and all the people, which had entered into the covenant, heard that every one should let his manservant, and every one his maidservant, go free, that none should serve themselves of them any more, then they obeyed, and let them go.

wayyāšûḇû ’aḥărê-ḵēn wayyāšiḇû ’eṯ-hā‘ăḇāḏîm wə’eṯ-haššəp̱āḥôṯ ’ăšer šilləḥû ḥāp̱əšîm wayyiḵəbəšûm la‘ăḇāḏîm wəlišəp̱āḥôṯ

Jer 34:11 But afterward they turned, and caused the servants and the handmaids, whom they had let go free, to return, and brought them into subjection for servants and for handmaids.

wayəhî ḏəḇar-yəhwāh ’el-yirəməyāhû mē’ēṯ yəhwāh lē’mōr

Jer 34:12 Therefore the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,

kōh-’āmar yəhwāh ’ĕlōhê yiśərā’ēl ’ānōḵî kārattî ḇərîṯ ’eṯ-’ăḇôṯêḵem bəyôm hôṣi’î ’ôṯām mē’ereṣ miṣərayim mibbêṯ ‘ăḇāḏîm lē’mōr

Jer 34:13 Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel; I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondmen, saying,

miqqēṣ šeḇa‘ šānîm təšalləḥû ’îš ’eṯ-’āḥîw hā‘iḇərî ’ăšer-yimmāḵēr ləḵā wa‘ăḇāḏəḵā šēš šānîm wəšillaḥətô ḥāp̱əšî mē‘immāḵ wəlō’-šāmə‘û ’ăḇôṯêḵem ’ēlay wəlō’ hiṭṭû ’eṯ-’āzənām

Jer 34:14 At the end of seven years let ye go every man his brother an Hebrew, which hath been sold unto thee; and when he hath served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee: but your fathers hearkened not unto me, neither inclined their ear.

Jer 34:15 And ye were now turned, and had done right in my sight, in proclaiming liberty every man to his neighbour; and ye had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name:

wattāšuḇû wattəḥalləlû ’eṯ-šəmî wattāšiḇû ’îš ’eṯ-‘aḇədô wə’îš ’eṯ-šip̱əḥāṯô ’ăšer-šillaḥətem ḥāp̱əšîm lənap̱əšām wattiḵəbəšû ’ōṯām lihəyôṯ lāḵem la‘ăḇāḏîm wəlišəp̱āḥôṯ

Jer 34:16 But ye turned and polluted my name, and caused every man his servant, and every man his handmaid, whom he had set at liberty at their pleasure, to return, and brought them into subjection, to be unto you for servants and for handmaids.

lāḵēn kōh-’āmar yəhwāh ’attem lō’-šəma‘ətem ’ēlay liqərō’ ḏərôr ’îš lə’āḥîw wə’îš lərē‘ēhû hinənî qōrē’ lāḵem dərôr nə’um-yəhwāh ’el-haḥereḇ ’el-haddeḇer wə’el-hārā‘āḇ wənāṯattî ’eṯəḵem ləza‘ăwāh ləḵōl mamələḵôṯ hā’āreṣ

Jer 34:17 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Ye have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every one to his brother, and every man to his neighbour: behold, I proclaim a liberty for you, saith the LORD, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth.

Jer 34:18 And I will give the men that have transgressed my covenant, which have not performed the words of the covenant which they had made before me, when they cut the calf in twain, and passed between the parts thereof,

śārê yəhûḏāh wəśārê yərûšālaim hassārisîm wəhakkōhănîm wəḵōl ‘am hā’āreṣ hā‘ōḇərîm bên biṯərê hā‘ēg̱el

Jer 34:19 The princes of Judah, and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land, which passed between the parts of the calf;

wənāṯattî ’ôṯām bəyaḏ ’ōyəḇêhem ûḇəyaḏ məḇaqəšê nap̱əšām wəhāyəṯāh niḇəlāṯām ləma’ăḵāl lə‘ôp̱ haššāmayim ûləḇehĕmaṯ hā’āreṣ

Jer 34:20 I will even give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life: and their dead bodies shall be for meat unto the fowls of the heaven, and to the beasts of the earth.

wə’eṯ-wə’eṯ-ṣiḏəqiyyāhû ṣiḏəqiyyāhû meleḵ-meleḵ-yəhûḏāh yəhûḏāh wə’eṯ-wə’eṯ-śārāyw śārāyw ’ettēn ’ettēn bəyaḏ bəyaḏ ’ōyəḇêhem ’ōyəḇêhem ûḇəyaḏ ûḇəyaḏ məḇaqəšê məḇaqəšê nap̱əšām nap̱əšām ûḇəyaḏ ḥêl ḥêl meleḵ meleḵ bāḇel hā‘ōlîm bāḇel hā‘ōlîm mē‘ălêḵem mē‘ălêḵem

Jer 34:21 And Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life, and into the hand of the king of Babylon's army, which are gone up from you.

hinənî məṣawweh nə’um-yəhwāh wahăšiḇōṯîm ’el-hā‘îr hazzō’ṯ wəniləḥămû ‘āleyhā ûləḵāḏûhā ûśərāp̱uhā ḇā’ēš wə’eṯ-‘ārê yəhûḏāh ’ettēn šəmāmāh mē’ên yōšēḇ

Jer 34:22 Behold, I will command, saith the LORD, and cause them to return to this city; and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire: and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation without an inhabitant.
