Consecuencias por violar el pacto

La palabra que vino a Jeremías de parte del SEÑOR, diciendo: Oíd las palabras de este pactoa, y decidlas a los hombres de Judá y a los habitantes de Jerusalénb. Les diréis: «Así dice el SEÑOR, Dios de Israel: “Maldito el hombre que no obedezca las palabras de este pactoa que mandé a vuestros padres el día que los saqué de la tierra de Egiptoa, del horno de hierrob, diciéndoles: ‘Escuchad mi voz, y haced1 conforme a todo lo que yo os mandoc; y vosotros seréis mi pueblo, y yo seré vuestro Diosd’, para confirmar el juramento que juré a vuestros padres, de darles una tierra que mana leche y miela, como lo es hoy”». Entonces respondí y dije: Amén, SEÑORb.

Y el SEÑOR me dijo: Proclama todas estas palabrasa en las ciudades de Judá y en las calles de Jerusalénb, diciendo: «Oíd las palabras de este pacto y cumplidlasc. Porque bien advertía a vuestros padres el día que los hice subir de la tierra de Egiptob, y hasta hoy los he amonestado con insistencia1, diciéndoles: “Escuchad mi vozc”. Pero no escucharon ni inclinaron su oído, sino que cada cual anduvo en la terquedad de su malvado corazóna. Por tanto, hice caer sobre ellos todas las palabras de este pacto, que yo les mandé cumplir y no lo cumplieronb».

Entonces el SEÑOR me dijo: Se ha descubierto una conspiracióna entre los hombres de Judá y entre los habitantes de Jerusalén. 10 Se han vuelto a las iniquidades de sus antepasados1, los cuales rehusaron escuchar mis palabrasa, y se han ido tras otros dioses para servirlosb. La casa de Israel y la casa de Judá han violado mi pactoc, el cual hice con sus padres. 11 Por tanto, así dice el SEÑOR: He aquí, traigo sobre ellos una calamidada de la que no podrán escaparb; aunque clamen a mí, no los escucharéc. 12 Entonces irán las ciudades de Judá y los habitantes de Jerusalén, y clamarán a los dioses a quienes queman inciensoa, pero ellos ciertamente no podrán salvarlos en la hora de su aflicción. 13 Porque según el número de tus ciudades son tus dioses, oh Judá, y según el número de las calles de Jerusaléna, son los altares que has levantado a lo vergonzosob, altares para quemar incienso a Baalc.

14 Pero tú no ruegues por este pueblo, ni levantes por ellos clamor ni oración; porque no escucharéa cuando clamen a mí a causa de su aflicciónb.

15 ¿Qué derecho tiene1 mi amada en mi casacuando ha hecho tantas vilezasa?¿Puede la carne consagrada quitar de ti tu calamidadbpara2 que puedas regocijarte?16 Olivo frondosoa, hermoso en fruto y forma,te puso por nombre el SEÑOR.Con ruido de un gran estrépitobha prendido fuego en él,y sus ramas son inserviblesc.

17 El SEÑOR de los ejércitos, que te plantóa, ha decretado una calamidad contra ti a causa de la maldad que la casa de Israel y la casa de Judáb han hecho1, provocándome al ofrecer sacrificios2 a Baalc.

Intrigas contra Jeremías

18 El SEÑOR me lo hizo saber y lo comprendía. Entonces me hiciste ver sus obras. 19 Pero yo era como un cordero manso llevado al mataderoa, y no sabía que tramaban intrigas contra míb, diciendo: Destruyamos el árbol con su fruto1, y cortémosloc de la tierra de los vivientesd, para que no se recuerde más su nombree.

20 Mas, oh SEÑOR de los ejércitos, que juzgas rectamentea,que examinas los sentimientos1 y el corazónb,vea yo tu venganza contra ellos,porque a ti he expuesto2 mi causa.

21 Por tanto, así dice el SEÑOR en cuanto a los hombres de Anatota que buscan tu vidab, diciendo: No profeticesc en el nombre del SEÑOR, para que no mueras a manos nuestrasd; 22 así, pues, dice el SEÑOR de los ejércitos: He aquí, voy a castigarlosa. Los jóvenes morirán a espada, sus hijos e hijas morirán de hambreb, 23 y no quedará de ellos remanentea, porque traeré una calamidad sobre los hombres de Anatot, el año de su castigob.

The Broken Covenant

The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, aHear the words of this bcovenant, and speak to the men of Judah and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and say to them, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of Israel says: “aCursed is the one who does not obey the words of this covenant which I commanded your forefathers on the aday that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, from the biron furnace, saying, ‘cListen to My voice, and 1do according to all that I command you; so you shall be dMy people, and I will be your God,’ in order to confirm the aoath which I swore to your forefathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is this day.”’” Then I replied, “bAmen, LORD.”

And the LORD said to me, “aProclaim all these words in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, ‘bHear the words of this covenant and cdo them. For I solemnly awarned your fathers on the bday I brought them up from the land of Egypt, even to this day, cwarning them persistently, saying, “dListen to My voice.” Yet they adid not obey or incline their ear, but walked in the stubbornness of their evil heart, each one of them; therefore I brought on them all the bwords of this covenant which I commanded them to do, but they did not.’”

Then the LORD said to me, “A aconspiracy has been found among the men of Judah and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 10 They have aturned back to the wrongdoings of their 1ancestors who brefused to hear My words, and they chave followed other gods to serve them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah have dbroken My covenant which I made with their fathers.” 11 Therefore this is what the LORD says: “Behold, I am abringing disaster on them which they will bnot be able to escape; though they will ccry out to Me, I will not listen to them. 12 Then the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem will ago and cry out to the gods to whom they 1burn incense, but they certainly will not save them in the time of their disaster. 13 For your gods are 1aas many as your cities, Judah; and 2as many as the streets of Jerusalem are the altars you have set up to the bshameful thing, altars for 3cburning incense to Baal.

14 “So as for you, ado not pray for this people, nor lift up a cry or prayer for them; for I will bnot listen when they call to Me because of their disaster.

15 What right has My abeloved in My houseWhen bshe has carried out many evil schemes?Can the sacrificial flesh take away from you your disaster,1So that you can rejoice?”16 The LORD named you“A agreen olive tree, beautiful in fruit and form”;With the bnoise of a great 1tumultHe has cset fire to it,And its branches are worthless.

17 The LORD of armies, who aplanted you, has bpronounced evil against you because of the evil of the house of Israel and the house of Judah, which they have 1done to provoke Me by 2coffering sacrifices to Baal.

Plots against Jeremiah
18 Moreover, the LORD amade it known to me and I knew it;Then You showed me their deeds.19 But I was like a gentle alamb led to the slaughter;And I did not know that they had bdevised plots against me, saying,“Let’s destroy the tree with its 1fruit,And clet’s cut him off from the dland of the living,So that his ename will no longer be remembered.”20 But, LORD of armies, who ajudges righteously,Who bputs the 1feelings and the heart to the test,Let me see Your vengeance on them,For to You I have 2committed my cause.

21 Therefore this is what the LORD says concerning the people of aAnathoth, who are bseeking your life, saying: “cDo not prophesy in the name of the LORD, so that you do not ddie by our hand”; 22 therefore, this is what the LORD of armies says: “Behold, I am going to apunish them! The byoung men will die by the sword, their sons and daughters will die by famine; 23 and a remnant awill not be left to them, because I will bbring disaster on the people of Anathothcthe year of their punishment.”

The Broken Covenant

The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, aHear the words of this bcovenant, and speak to the men of Judah and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and say to them, ‘Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, “aCursed is the man who does not heed the words of this covenant which I commanded your forefathers in the aday that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, from the biron furnace, saying, ‘cListen to My voice, and 1do according to all which I command you; so you shall be dMy people, and I will be your God,’ in order to confirm the aoath which I swore to your forefathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is this day.”’” Then I said, “bAmen, O LORD.”

And the LORD said to me, “aProclaim all these words in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, ‘bHear the words of this covenant and cdo them. For I solemnly awarned your fathers in the bday that I brought them up from the land of Egypt, even to this day, 1cwarning persistently, saying, “dListen to My voice.” Yet they adid not obey or incline their ear, but walked, each one, in the stubbornness of his evil heart; therefore I brought on them all the bwords of this covenant, which I commanded them to do, but they did not.’”

Then the LORD said to me, “A aconspiracy has been found among the men of Judah and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 10 They have aturned back to the iniquities of their 1ancestors who brefused to hear My words, and they chave gone after other gods to serve them; the house of Israel and the house of Judah have dbroken My covenant which I made with their fathers.” 11 Therefore thus says the LORD, “Behold I am abringing disaster on them which they will bnot be able to escape; though they will ccry to Me, yet I will not listen to them. 12 Then the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem will ago and cry to the gods to whom they burn incense, but they surely will not save them in the time of their disaster. 13 For your gods are 1aas many as your cities, O Judah; and 2as many as the streets of Jerusalem are the altars you have set up to the bshameful thing, altars to cburn incense to Baal.

14 “Therefore ado not pray for this people, nor lift up a cry or prayer for them; for I will bnot listen when they call to Me because of their disaster.

15 What right has My abeloved in My houseWhen bshe has done many vile deeds?Can the sacrificial flesh take away from you your disaster,1So that you can rejoice?”16 The LORD called your name,“A agreen olive tree, beautiful in fruit and form”;With the bnoise of a great tumultHe has ckindled fire on it,And its branches are worthless.

17 The LORD of hosts, who aplanted you, has bpronounced evil against you because of the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have 1done to provoke Me by 2coffering up sacrifices to Baal.

Plots against Jeremiah
18 Moreover, the LORD amade it known to me and I knew it;Then You showed me their deeds.19 But I was like a gentle alamb led to the slaughter;And I did not know that they had bdevised plots against me, saying,“Let us destroy the tree with its 1fruit,And clet us cut him off from the dland of the living,That his ename be remembered no more.”20 But, O LORD of hosts, who ajudges righteously,Who btries the 1feelings and the heart,Let me see Your vengeance on them,For to You have I 2committed my cause.

21 Therefore thus says the LORD concerning the men of aAnathoth, who bseek your life, saying, “cDo not prophesy in the name of the LORD, so that you will not ddie at our hand”; 22 therefore, thus says the LORD of hosts, “Behold, I am about to apunish them! The byoung men will die by the sword, their sons and daughters will die by famine; 23 and a remnant awill not be left to them, for I will bbring disaster on the men of Anathothcthe year of their punishment.”

The Broken Covenant

The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, aHear the words of this solemn bcovenant, and speak to the men of Judah and to the people of Jerusalem. Say to them, ‘Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, “aCursed is the man who does not heed the words of this covenant which I commanded your fathers at the atime that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, from the biron furnace, saying, ‘cListen to My voice and do according to all that I command you. So you shall be dMy people, and I will be your God,’ that I may complete the aoath which I swore to your fathers, to give them a land of plenty 1flowing with milk and honey, as it is this day.”’” Then I answered, “bAmen (so be it) , O LORD.”

And the LORD said to me, “aProclaim all these words in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem: ‘bHear the words of this solemn covenant and cdo them. For I solemnly awarned your fathers at the btime that I brought them up from the land of Egypt, even to this day, cwarning them persistently, saying, “dObey My voice.” Yet they adid not obey or incline their ear to listen to Me, but everyone walked in the stubborn way of his own evil heart. Therefore I brought on them all the suffering threatened in the bwords of this covenant, which I commanded them to do, but they did not.’”

Then the LORD said to me, “A aconspiracy has been found among the men of Judah and among the people of Jerusalem. 10 They have areturned to the wickedness of their ancestors who brefused to hear My words; they chave followed other gods in order to serve them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah have dbroken My solemn covenant which I made with their fathers.” 11 Therefore thus says the LORD, “Behold I am abringing disaster and suffering on them which they will bnot be able to escape; though they ccry to Me, I will not listen to them. 12 Then the cities of Judah and the people of Jerusalem will ago and cry to the man-made gods to whom they burn incense, but they cannot save them in the time of their disaster. 13 For as many as athe number of your cities are your gods, O Judah; and as many as the number of the streets of Jerusalem are the altars you have set up to the bshameful thing, altars to cburn incense to Baal.

14 “Therefore ado not pray for this people, nor lift up a cry or prayer for them, for I shall bnot listen when they cry to Me in the time of their disaster.

15 “What right has My abeloved to be in My houseWhen bshe has done many vile things and acted treacherously over and over again?Can vows and the meat of your sacrifices remove your wickedness from you and cancel the consequences of your sin,So that you can escape your judgment and rejoice?”16 The LORD acknowledged you once as worthy and called your name,“A agreen olive tree, fair and beautiful in fruit and form”;But with the broar of a great tempestHe has cset fire to it,And its branches are worthless. Ps 52:8; Jer 21:14

17 For the LORD of hosts, who aplanted you, has bpronounced evil and horror against you because of the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have done to provoke Me to anger by coffering sacrifices and burning incense to Baal.

Plots against Jeremiah
18 Then the LORD agave me knowledge of their plot, and I knew it;So You O LORD revealed their deeds to me.19 But I was like a gentle and tame alamb brought to the slaughter;And I did not know that they had bdevised plots and schemes against me, saying,“Let us destroy the tree with its fruit;cLet us cut him off from the dland of the living,That his ename be remembered no longer.”20 But, O LORD of hosts, who ajudges righteously,Who btests the feelings and the heart (mind) ,Let me see Your vengeance on them,For to You I have committed my cause.

21 Therefore thus says the LORD regarding the men of aAnathoth, who bseek your life, saying, “cDo not prophesy in the name of the LORD, so that you will not ddie by our hand.” 22 Therefore, thus says the LORD of hosts, “Behold, I am about to apunish them. Their byoung men will die by the sword, their sons and their daughters will die by famine; 23 and there awill be no remnant of the conspirators left, for I will bbring disaster and horror on the men of Anathoth in cthe year of their punishment.”
