King James Version (KJV) With Strong Codes

1. Woe[H1945] be unto the pastors[H7462] that destroy[H6] and scatter[H6327] [H853] the sheep[H6629] of my pasture![H4830] saith[H5002] the LORD.[H3068]

2. Therefore[H3651] thus[H3541] saith[H559] the LORD[H3068] God[H430] of Israel[H3478] against[H5921] the pastors[H7462] that feed[H7462] [H853] my people;[H5971] Ye[H859] have scattered[H6327] [H853] my flock,[H6629] and driven them away,[H5080] and have not[H3808] visited[H6485] them: behold,[H2009] I will visit[H6485] upon[H5921] you[H853] the evil[H7455] of your doings,[H4611] saith[H5002] the LORD.[H3068]

3. And I[H589] will gather[H6908] [H853] the remnant[H7611] of my flock[H6629] out of all[H4480] [H3605] countries[H776] whither[H834] [H8033] I have driven[H5080] them, and will bring them again[H7725] [H853] to[H5921] their folds;[H5116] and they shall be fruitful[H6509] and increase.[H7235]

4. And I will set up[H6965] shepherds[H7462] over[H5921] them which shall feed[H7462] them: and they shall fear[H3372] no[H3808] more,[H5750] nor[H3808] be dismayed,[H2865] neither[H3808] shall they be lacking,[H6485] saith[H5002] the LORD.[H3068]

5. Behold,[H2009] the days[H3117] come,[H935] saith[H5002] the LORD,[H3068] that I will raise[H6965] unto David[H1732] a righteous[H6662] Branch,[H6780] and a King[H4428] shall reign[H4427] and prosper,[H7919] and shall execute[H6213] judgment[H4941] and justice[H6666] in the earth.[H776]

6. In his days[H3117] Judah[H3063] shall be saved,[H3467] and Israel[H3478] shall dwell[H7931] safely:[H983] and this[H2088] is his name[H8034] whereby[H834] he shall be called,[H7121] THE LORD[H3068] OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.[H6664]

7. Therefore,[H3651] behold,[H2009] the days[H3117] come,[H935] saith[H5002] the LORD,[H3068] that they shall no[H3808] more[H5750] say,[H559] The LORD[H3068] liveth,[H2416] which[H834] brought up[H5927] [H853] the children[H1121] of Israel[H3478] out of the land[H4480] [H776] of Egypt;[H4714]

8. But,[H3588] [H518] The LORD[H3068] liveth,[H2416] which[H834] brought up[H5927] and which[H834] led[H935] [H853] the seed[H2233] of the house[H1004] of Israel[H3478] out of the north[H6828] country,[H4480] [H776] and from all[H4480] [H3605] countries[H776] whither[H834] [H8033] I had driven[H5080] them; and they shall dwell[H3427] in[H5921] their own land.[H127]

9. Mine heart[H3820] within[H7130] me is broken[H7665] because of the prophets;[H5030] all[H3605] my bones[H6106] shake;[H7363] I am[H1961] like a drunken[H7910] man,[H376] and like a man[H1397] whom wine[H3196] hath overcome,[H5674] because[H4480] [H6440] of the LORD,[H3068] and because[H4480] [H6440] of the words[H1697] of his holiness.[H6944]

10. For[H3588] the land[H776] is full[H4390] of adulterers;[H5003] for[H3588] because[H4480] [H6440] of swearing[H423] the land[H776] mourneth;[H56] the pleasant places[H4999] of the wilderness[H4057] are dried up,[H3001] and their course[H4794] is[H1961] evil,[H7451] and their force[H1369] is not[H3808] right.[H3651]

11. For[H3588] both[H1571] prophet[H5030] and[H1571] priest[H3548] are profane;[H2610] yea,[H1571] in my house[H1004] have I found[H4672] their wickedness,[H7451] saith[H5002] the LORD.[H3068]

12. Wherefore[H3651] their way[H1870] shall be[H1961] unto them as slippery[H2519] ways in the darkness:[H653] they shall be driven on,[H1760] and fall[H5307] therein: for[H3588] I will bring[H935] evil[H7451] upon[H5921] them, even the year[H8141] of their visitation,[H6486] saith[H5002] the LORD.[H3068]

13. And I have seen[H7200] folly[H8604] in the prophets[H5030] of Samaria;[H8111] they prophesied[H5012] in Baal,[H1168] and caused[H853] my people[H5971] [H853] Israel[H3478] to err.[H8582]

14. I have seen[H7200] also in the prophets[H5030] of Jerusalem[H3389] a horrible thing:[H8186] they commit adultery,[H5003] and walk[H1980] in lies:[H8267] they strengthen[H2388] also the hands[H3027] of evildoers,[H7489] that none[H1115] [H376] doth return[H7725] from his wickedness:[H4480] [H7451] they are[H1961] all[H3605] of them unto me as Sodom,[H5467] and the inhabitants[H3427] thereof as Gomorrah.[H6017]

15. Therefore[H3651] thus[H3541] saith[H559] the LORD[H3068] of hosts[H6635] concerning[H5921] the prophets;[H5030] Behold,[H2009] I will feed[H398] them with wormwood,[H3939] and make them drink[H8248] the water[H4325] of gall:[H7219] for[H3588] from[H4480] [H854] the prophets[H5030] of Jerusalem[H3389] is profaneness[H2613] gone forth[H3318] into all[H3605] the land.[H776]

16. Thus[H3541] saith[H559] the LORD[H3068] of hosts,[H6635] Hearken[H8085] not[H408] unto[H5921] the words[H1697] of the prophets[H5030] that prophesy[H5012] unto you: they make you vain:[H1891] [H853] they[H1992] speak[H1696] a vision[H2377] of their own heart,[H3820] and not[H3808] out of the mouth[H4480] [H6310] of the LORD.[H3068]

17. They say still[H559] [H559] unto them that despise[H5006] me, The LORD[H3068] hath said,[H1696] Ye shall have[H1961] peace;[H7965] and they say[H559] unto every one[H3605] that walketh[H1980] after the imagination[H8307] of his own heart,[H3820] No[H3808] evil[H7451] shall come[H935] upon[H5921] you.

18. For[H3588] who[H4310] hath stood[H5975] in the counsel[H5475] of the LORD,[H3068] and hath perceived[H7200] and heard[H8085] [H853] his word?[H1697] who[H4310] hath marked[H7181] his word,[H1697] and heard[H8085] it?

19. Behold,[H2009] a whirlwind[H5591] of the LORD[H3068] is gone forth[H3318] in fury,[H2534] even a grievous[H2342] whirlwind:[H5591] it shall fall grievously[H2342] upon[H5921] the head[H7218] of the wicked.[H7563]

20. The anger[H639] of the LORD[H3068] shall not[H3808] return,[H7725] until[H5704] he have executed,[H6213] and till[H5704] he have performed[H6965] the thoughts[H4209] of his heart:[H3820] in the latter[H319] days[H3117] ye shall consider[H995] it perfectly.[H998]

21. I have not[H3808] sent[H7971] [H853] these prophets,[H5030] yet they[H1992] ran:[H7323] I have not[H3808] spoken[H1696] to[H413] them, yet they[H1992] prophesied.[H5012]

22. But if[H518] they had stood[H5975] in my counsel,[H5475] and had caused[H853] my people[H5971] to hear[H8085] my words,[H1697] then they should have turned[H7725] them from their evil[H7451] way,[H4480] [H1870] and from the evil[H4480] [H7455] of their doings.[H4611]

23. Am I[H589] a God[H430] at hand,[H4480] [H7138] saith[H5002] the LORD,[H3068] and not[H3808] a God[H430] afar off?[H4480] [H7350]

24. Can[H518] any[H376] hide himself[H5641] in secret places[H4565] that I[H589] shall not[H3808] see[H7200] him? saith[H5002] the LORD.[H3068] Do not[H3808] I[H589] fill[H4390] [H853] heaven[H8064] and earth?[H776] saith[H5002] the LORD.[H3068]

25. I have heard[H8085] [H853] what[H834] the prophets[H5030] said,[H559] that prophesy[H5012] lies[H8267] in my name,[H8034] saying,[H559] I have dreamed,[H2492] I have dreamed.[H2492]

26. How long[H5704] [H4970] shall this be[H3426] in the heart[H3820] of the prophets[H5030] that prophesy[H5012] lies?[H8267] yea, they are prophets[H5030] of the deceit[H8649] of their own heart;[H3820]

27. Which think[H2803] to cause[H853] my people[H5971] to forget[H7911] my name[H8034] by their dreams[H2472] which[H834] they tell[H5608] every man[H376] to his neighbor,[H7453] as[H834] their fathers[H1] have forgotten[H7911] [H853] my name[H8034] for Baal.[H1168]

28. The prophet[H5030] that[H834] [H854] hath a dream,[H2472] let him tell[H5608] a dream;[H2472] and he that[H834] [H854] hath my word,[H1697] let him speak[H1696] my word[H1697] faithfully.[H571] What[H4100] is the chaff[H8401] to[H854] the wheat?[H1250] saith[H5002] the LORD.[H3068]

29. Is not[H3808] my word[H1697] like[H3541] as a fire?[H784] saith[H5002] the LORD;[H3068] and like a hammer[H6360] that breaketh[H6327] the rock[H5553] in pieces?

30. Therefore,[H3651] behold,[H2009] I am against[H5921] the prophets,[H5030] saith[H5002] the LORD,[H3068] that steal[H1589] my words[H1697] every one[H376] from[H4480] [H854] his neighbor.[H7453]

31. Behold,[H2009] I am against[H5921] the prophets,[H5030] saith[H5002] the LORD,[H3068] that use[H3947] their tongues,[H3956] and say,[H5001] He saith.[H5002]

32. Behold,[H2009] I am against[H5921] them that prophesy[H5012] false[H8267] dreams,[H2472] saith[H5002] the LORD,[H3068] and do tell[H5608] them, and cause[H853] my people[H5971] to err[H8582] by their lies,[H8267] and by their lightness;[H6350] yet I[H595] sent[H7971] them not,[H3808] nor[H3808] commanded[H6680] them: therefore they shall not[H3808] profit this people at all,[H3276] [H3276] [H5971] [H2088] saith[H5002] the LORD.[H3068]

33. And when[H3588] this[H2088] people,[H5971] or[H176] the prophet,[H5030] or[H176] a priest,[H3548] shall ask[H7592] thee, saying,[H559] What[H4100] is the burden[H4853] of the LORD?[H3068] thou shalt then say[H559] unto[H413] them,[H853] What[H4100] burden?[H4853] I will even forsake[H5203] you, saith[H5002] the LORD.[H3068]

34. And as for the prophet,[H5030] and the priest,[H3548] and the people,[H5971] that[H834] shall say,[H559] The burden[H4853] of the LORD,[H3068] I will even punish[H6485] [H5921] that[H1931] man[H376] and his house.[H1004]

35. Thus[H3541] shall ye say[H559] every one[H376] to[H5921] his neighbor,[H7453] and every one[H376] to[H413] his brother,[H251] What[H4100] hath the LORD[H3068] answered?[H6030] and, What[H4100] hath the LORD[H3068] spoken?[H1696]

36. And the burden[H4853] of the LORD[H3068] shall ye mention[H2142] no[H3808] more:[H5750] for[H3588] every man's[H376] word[H1697] shall be[H1961] his burden;[H4853] for ye have perverted[H2015] [H853] the words[H1697] of the living[H2416] God,[H430] of the LORD[H3068] of hosts[H6635] our God.[H430]

37. Thus[H3541] shalt thou say[H559] to[H413] the prophet,[H5030] What[H4100] hath the LORD[H3068] answered[H6030] thee? and, What[H4100] hath the LORD[H3068] spoken?[H1696]

38. But since[H518] ye say,[H559] The burden[H4853] of the LORD;[H3068] therefore[H3651] thus[H3541] saith[H559] the LORD;[H3068] Because[H3282] ye say[H559] [H853] this[H2088] word,[H1697] The burden[H4853] of the LORD,[H3068] and I have sent[H7971] unto[H413] you, saying,[H559] Ye shall not[H3808] say,[H559] The burden[H4853] of the LORD;[H3068]

39. Therefore,[H3651] behold,[H2009] I, even I, will utterly forget[H5382] [H5382] you, and I will forsake[H5203] you, and the city[H5892] that[H834] I gave[H5414] you and your fathers,[H1] and cast you out of[H4480] [H5921] my presence: [H6440]

40. And I will bring[H5414] an everlasting[H5769] reproach[H2781] upon[H5921] you, and a perpetual[H5769] shame,[H3640] which[H834] shall not[H3808] be forgotten.[H7911]
