RF JER 16:1 The Prophet forbidden to Marry.
Again, the message of the EVER-LIVING came to me to say:
RF JER 16:2 "You shall not take a wife, nor shall you have sons and daughters in this place.
RF JER 16:3 For," thus said the EVER-LIVING. "upon the sons and the daughters that are born in this place, and upon the mothers who bore them, and upon the fathers who caused their birth in this land,
RF JER 16:4 I will inflict sickening deaths. They shall die unmourned, and lie unburied on the face of the ground like dung! They shall end by sword and famine, and their corpses shall be food for the fowls of the sky, and the beasts of the earth."
RF JER 16:5 Thus said the EVER-LIVING:— "Enter not the House of Weeping,—nor go to a burial, nor moan for them, for I will remove Peace from this People," said the EVER-LIVING, "with Mercy and Pity.
RF JER 16:6 Both the little and great in this land shall die,—they shall not be buried, they shall not be mourned or lamented, nor shorn for', nor shaven.
RF JER 16:7 They shall not distribute the bread of grief to comfort themselves over the dead, nor drink the cup of consolation for their father and mother.
RF JER 16:8 "Neither enter the House of Feasting to sit with them, to eat and drink,
RF JER 16:9 for thus says the LORD OF HOSTS, the GOD of Israel, I will cause the sound of joy and gladness, and the voice of the bridegroom and bride to cease from this place, in your sight and in your days.
RF JER 16:10 But when you relate to this People all these things, and they ask you, 'For what object does the EVER-LIVING speak to us about all this great misery? What is our fault? and what is the sin which we have sinned against our EVER-LIVING GOD?'
RF JER 16:11 You shall then answer them, 'Because your fathers abandoned Me," says the EVER-LIVING, "and went after seducing gods, and served and worshipped them, rejecting Me, and not keeping My laws.
RF JER 16:12 You also have done wrong in doing like your fathers, for, see! you each follow the ideas of your wicked hearts, and never listen to Me!
RF JER 16:13 So I will throw you out of this land to a land unknown to you and your fathers, and there you can serve these seducing gods, day and night, where I will show you no favour.
RF JER 16:14 Therefore, look! the days come," says the EVER-LIVING, "when they will no more" say, 'By the life of the EVER-LIVING Who brought the children of Israel from the land of the Mitzeraim,'
RF JER 16:15 but 'By the life of the EVER-LIVING Who brought the children of Israel from the north, and from all the countries where He drove them, and Who restored them to the land of their fathers.'
RF JER 16:16 Israel's Return Promised.
"I will send many fishermen," says the EVER-LIVING, "who will fish for them; and after them I will send many hunters, who will hunt them upon every hill, and upon every mount and cliff, and crag;
RF JER 16:17 for My eyes are over all their courses, they are not hidden from Me, and their' faults are not concealed from My sight.
RF JER 16:18 But I will first repay their faults and their sins upon them double, because they have polluted My land with their filthy carcasses, and filled my Inheritance with their abominations."
RF JER 16:19 The Heathen Will Come to Seek for God.
EVER-LIVING! my strength, and power, and consolation in the day of distress! The heathen shall come to You from the bounds of the earth, and say; "Our forefathers inherited only Falsehood and Delusion, in whom there is no helpfulness.
RF JER 16:20 Can mankind make themselves gods, when they are not gods?
RF JER 16:21 "I will, however, instruct them at that time,—I will teach them My Power and Might, and they will know that My NAME is The ETERNAL!
