1 et factum est in anno illo in principio regni Sedeciae regis Iuda
in anno quarto in mense quinto
dixit ad me Ananias filius Azur propheta de Gabaon in domo Domini
coram sacerdotibus et omni populo dicens
2 haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israhel
contrivi iugum regis Babylonis
3 adhuc duo anni dierum
et ego referri faciam ad locum istum omnia vasa Domini
quae tulit Nabuchodonosor rex Babylonis de loco isto
et transtulit ea in Babylonem
4 et Iechoniam filium Ioachim regem Iuda
et omnem transmigrationem Iudae
qui ingressi sunt in Babylonem
ego convertam ad locum istum ait Dominus
conteram enim iugum regis Babylonis
5 et dixit Hieremias propheta ad Ananiam prophetam
in oculis sacerdotum et in oculis omnis populi
qui stabant in domo Domini
6 et ait Hieremias propheta amen sic faciat Dominus
suscitet Dominus verba tua quae prophetasti
ut referantur vasa in domo Domini
et omnis transmigratio de Babylone ad locum istum
7 verumtamen audi verbum hoc quod ego loquor in auribus tuis
et in auribus universi populi
8 prophetae qui fuerunt ante me et te ab initio
et prophetaverunt super terras multas
et super regna magna
de proelio et de adflictione et de fame
9 propheta qui vaticinatus est pacem
cum venerit verbum eius
scietur propheta quem misit Dominus in veritate
10 et tulit Ananias propheta catenam de collo Hieremiae prophetae
et confregit eam
11 et ait Ananias in conspectu omnis populi dicens
haec dicit Dominus
sic confringam iugum Nabuchodonosor regis Babylonis
post duos annos dierum de collo omnium gentium
12 et abiit Hieremias prophetes in viam suam
et factum est verbum Domini ad Hieremiam
postquam confregit Ananias propheta catenam de collo Hieremiae
prophetae dicens
13 vade et dices Ananiae haec dicit Dominus
catenas ligneas contrivisti et facies pro eis catenas ferreas
14 quia haec dicit Dominus exercituum Deus Israhel
iugum ferreum posui super collum cunctarum gentium istarum
ut serviant Nabuchodonosor regi Babylonis
et servient ei insuper et bestias terrae dedi ei
15 et dixit Hieremias propheta ad Ananiam prophetam
audi Anania non misit te Dominus
et tu confidere fecisti populum istum in mendacio
16 idcirco haec dicit Dominus
ecce emittam te a facie terrae
hoc anno morieris adversum Dominum enim
locutus es
17 et mortuus est Ananias propheta in anno illo mense septimo
1 And it came to pass the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, and in the fifth month, that Hananiah the son of Azur the prophet, which was of Gibeon, spake unto me in the house of the LORD, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying, 2 Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon. 3 Within two full years will I bring again into this place all the vessels of the LORD’s house, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place, and carried them to Babylon: 4 And I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, that went into Babylon, saith the LORD: for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.
5 ¶ Then the prophet Jeremiah said unto the prophet Hananiah in the presence of the priests, and in the presence of all the people that stood in the house of the LORD, 6 Even the prophet Jeremiah said, Amen: the LORD do so: the LORD perform thy words which thou hast prophesied, to bring again the vessels of the LORD’s house, and all that is carried away captive, from Babylon into this place. 7 Nevertheless hear thou now this word that I speak in thine ears, and in the ears of all the people; 8 The prophets that have been before me and before thee of old prophesied both against many countries, and against great kingdoms, of war, and of evil, and of pestilence. 9 The prophet which prophesieth of peace, when the word of the prophet shall come to pass, then shall the prophet be known, that the LORD hath truly sent him.
10 ¶ Then Hananiah the prophet took the yoke from off the prophet Jeremiah’s neck, and brake it. 11 And Hananiah spake in the presence of all the people, saying, Thus saith the LORD; Even so will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from the neck of all nations within the space of two full years. And the prophet Jeremiah went his way.
12 ¶ Then the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah the prophet , after that Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke from off the neck of the prophet Jeremiah, saying, 13 Go and tell Hananiah, saying, Thus saith the LORD; Thou hast broken the yokes of wood; but thou shalt make for them yokes of iron. 14 For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; I have put a yoke of iron upon the neck of all these nations, that they may serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and they shall serve him: and I have given him the beasts of the field also.
15 ¶ Then said the prophet Jeremiah unto Hananiah the prophet, Hear now, Hananiah; The LORD hath not sent thee; but thou makest this people to trust in a lie. 16 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will cast thee from off the face of the earth: this year thou shalt die, because thou hast taught rebellion against the LORD. 17 So Hananiah the prophet died the same year in the seventh month.
