14 Fjala e Zotit që iu drejtua Jeremias me rastin e thatësirës:
2 "Juda është në zi dhe portat e qyteteve të saj lëngojnë; mbajnë zi për vendin dhe britma e Jeruzalemit ngjitet deri në qiell.
3 Fisnikët dërgojnë ndër ta të rinjtë e tyre për të kërkuar ujë; këta shkojnë në sternat, por nuk gjejnë ujë dhe kthehen me enët e tyre bosh; janë plot me turp dhe të hutuar, dhe mbulojnë kokën e tyre.
4 Toka është plot me të çara, sepse nuk ka pasur shi në vend; bujqit janë plot me turp dhe mbulojnë kokën e tyre.
5 Edhe suta pjell nëpër fusha, por i braktis të vegjlit e saj, sepse nuk ka bar.
6 Gomerët e egjër ndalen në lartësitë dhe e nuhasin ajrin si çakejtë; sytë e tyre janë të shuar, sepse nuk ka bar".
7 Edhe në se paudhësitë tona dëshmojnë kundër nesh, o Zot, vepro për hir të emrit tënd, sepse rebelimet tona janë të shumta; kemi mëkatuar kundër teje.
8 O shpresë e Izraelit, shpëtimtari i tij në kohë fatkeqësie, pse të jesh në vend si një i huaj, si një udhëtar që ndalet vetëm për të kaluar natën?
9 Pse të jesh si një njeri i tronditur, si një njeri i fortë që nuk mund të shpëtojë? Megjithatë ti je në mes nesh, o Zot, emri yt përmendet mbi ne. Mos na braktis!
10 Kështu i thotë Zoti këtij populli: "Atyre u pëlqen me të vërtetë të enden, nuk përmbajnë hapat e tyre. Prandaj nuk i pëlqejnë Zotit, tani kujton paudhësinë e tyre dhe dënon mëkatet e tyre".
11 Pastaj Zoti më tha: "Mos u lut për këtë popull, për mirëqënien e tij.
12 Edhe sikur të agjërojnë, nuk kam për ta dëgjuar thirrjen e tyre; në rast se bëjnë olokauste dhe oferta ushqimesh nuk kam për t’i pëlqyer, por do t’i zhduk me shpatën, me urinë dhe murtajën".
13 Atëherë thashë: "Ah, Zot, Zot! Ja, profetët u thonë atyre: "Ju nuk do të shikoni shpatën dhe nuk do të vuani nga uria, por do t’ju jap një paqe të sigurt në këtë vend"".
14 Zoti më tha: "Profetët profetizojnë gënjeshtra në emrin tim; unë nuk i kam dërguar, nuk u kam dhënë asnjë urdhër dhe nuk kam folur me ta. Ata ju profetizojnë një pamje të rreme, një parashikim të kotë dhe mashtrimin e zemrës së tyre.
15 Prandaj kështu thotë Zoti për profetët që profetizojnë në emrin tim pa qenë të dërguar nga unë, dhe shpallin: "Nuk do të ketë as shpatë, as uri në këtë vend," këta profetë do të zhduken nga shpata dhe nga uria.
16 Sa për popullin të cilit i kanë profetizuar, do të hidhet në rrugët e Jeruzalemit për shkak të urisë dhe të shpatës, dhe nuk do të ketë asnjeri që t’i varrosë ata, gratë e tyre, bijtë dhe bijat e tyre. Kështu do të hedh mbi ta ligësinë e tyre".
17 U thuaj atyre pra, këtë fjalë: "Të derdhin lot ditë e natë sytë e mi pa pushim, sepse bija e virgjër e popullit tim u godit nga një fatkeqësi e madhe, nga një plagë e thellë.
18 Në rast se dal nëpër fusha, ja të vdekurit nga shpata; në rast se hyj në qytet, ja ata që vuajnë nga uria. Madje edhe profeti dhe prifti i vijnë rrotull një vendi që nuk njohin".
19 Vallë a e ke hedhur poshtë plotësisht Judën, ose je neveritur nga Sioni? Ke goditur dhe nuk ka shërim për ne? Ne prisnim paqen, por nuk ka asnjë të mirë, një kohë shërimi, por ja tmerri.
20 O Zot, ne e pranojmë ligësinë tonë dhe paudhësinë e etërve tanë; po, kemi mëkatuar kundër teje.
21 Mos na hidh poshtë për hir të emrit tënd, mos turpëro fronin e lavdisë sate. Mbaje mend: mos e prish besëlidhjen me ne.
22 Midis idhujve të kotë të njerëzve a ka vallë ndonjë që mund të sjellë shiun? Ose të japë qielli shira të bollshme? A nuk je ti pra, o Zot, Perëndia ynë? Prandaj ne shpresojmë te ti, sepse ke bërë tërë këto gjëra.

Drought, Famine, Sword
14 This is the word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah concerning the drought:(A)
2 “Judah mourns,(B)
her cities languish;
they wail for the land,
and a cry goes up from Jerusalem.
3 The nobles send their servants for water;
they go to the cisterns
but find no water.(C)
They return with their jars unfilled;
dismayed and despairing,
they cover their heads.(D)
4 The ground is cracked
because there is no rain in the land;(E)
the farmers are dismayed
and cover their heads.
5 Even the doe in the field
deserts her newborn fawn
because there is no grass.(F)
6 Wild donkeys stand on the barren heights(G)
and pant like jackals;
their eyes fail
for lack of food.”(H)
7 Although our sins testify(I) against us,
do something, Lord, for the sake of your name.(J)
For we have often rebelled;(K)
we have sinned(L) against you.
8 You who are the hope(M) of Israel,
its Savior(N) in times of distress,(O)
why are you like a stranger in the land,
like a traveler who stays only a night?
9 Why are you like a man taken by surprise,
like a warrior powerless to save?(P)
You are among(Q) us, Lord,
and we bear your name;(R)
do not forsake(S) us!
10 This is what the Lord says about this people:
“They greatly love to wander;
they do not restrain their feet.(T)
So the Lord does not accept(U) them;
he will now remember(V) their wickedness
and punish them for their sins.”(W)
11 Then the Lord said to me, “Do not pray(X) for the well-being of this people. 12 Although they fast, I will not listen to their cry;(Y) though they offer burnt offerings(Z) and grain offerings,(AA) I will not accept(AB) them. Instead, I will destroy them with the sword,(AC) famine(AD) and plague.”(AE)
13 But I said, “Alas, Sovereign Lord! The prophets(AF) keep telling them, ‘You will not see the sword or suffer famine.(AG) Indeed, I will give you lasting peace(AH) in this place.’”
14 Then the Lord said to me, “The prophets are prophesying lies(AI) in my name. I have not sent(AJ) them or appointed them or spoken to them. They are prophesying to you false visions,(AK) divinations,(AL) idolatries[a] and the delusions of their own minds. 15 Therefore this is what the Lord says about the prophets who are prophesying in my name: I did not send them, yet they are saying, ‘No sword or famine will touch this land.’ Those same prophets will perish(AM) by sword and famine.(AN) 16 And the people they are prophesying to will be thrown out into the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and sword. There will be no one to bury(AO) them, their wives, their sons and their daughters.(AP) I will pour out on them the calamity they deserve.(AQ)
17 “Speak this word to them:
“‘Let my eyes overflow with tears(AR)
night and day without ceasing;
for the Virgin(AS) Daughter, my people,
has suffered a grievous wound,
a crushing blow.(AT)
18 If I go into the country,
I see those slain by the sword;
if I go into the city,
I see the ravages of famine.(AU)
Both prophet and priest
have gone to a land they know not.(AV)’”
19 Have you rejected Judah completely?(AW)
Do you despise Zion?
Why have you afflicted us
so that we cannot be healed?(AX)
We hoped for peace
but no good has come,
for a time of healing
but there is only terror.(AY)
20 We acknowledge(AZ) our wickedness, Lord,
and the guilt of our ancestors;(BA)
we have indeed sinned(BB) against you.
21 For the sake of your name(BC) do not despise us;
do not dishonor your glorious throne.(BD)
Remember your covenant(BE) with us
and do not break it.
22 Do any of the worthless idols(BF) of the nations bring rain?(BG)
Do the skies themselves send down showers?
No, it is you, Lord our God.
Therefore our hope is in you,
for you are the one who does all this.(BH)

14 The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah concerning the dearth.
2 Judah mourneth, and the gates thereof languish; they are black unto the ground; and the cry of Jerusalem is gone up.
3 And their nobles have sent their little ones to the waters: they came to the pits, and found no water; they returned with their vessels empty; they were ashamed and confounded, and covered their heads.
4 Because the ground is chapt, for there was no rain in the earth, the plowmen were ashamed, they covered their heads.
5 Yea, the hind also calved in the field, and forsook it, because there was no grass.
6 And the wild asses did stand in the high places, they snuffed up the wind like dragons; their eyes did fail, because there was no grass.
7 O Lord, though our iniquities testify against us, do thou it for thy name's sake: for our backslidings are many; we have sinned against thee.
8 O the hope of Israel, the saviour thereof in time of trouble, why shouldest thou be as a stranger in the land, and as a wayfaring man that turneth aside to tarry for a night?
9 Why shouldest thou be as a man astonied, as a mighty man that cannot save? yet thou, O Lord, art in the midst of us, and we are called by thy name; leave us not.
10 Thus saith the Lord unto this people, Thus have they loved to wander, they have not refrained their feet, therefore the Lord doth not accept them; he will now remember their iniquity, and visit their sins.
11 Then said the Lord unto me, Pray not for this people for their good.
12 When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and an oblation, I will not accept them: but I will consume them by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence.
13 Then said I, Ah, Lord God! behold, the prophets say unto them, Ye shall not see the sword, neither shall ye have famine; but I will give you assured peace in this place.
14 Then the Lord said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.
15 Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning the prophets that prophesy in my name, and I sent them not, yet they say, Sword and famine shall not be in this land; By sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed.
16 And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword; and they shall have none to bury them, them, their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters: for I will pour their wickedness upon them.
17 Therefore thou shalt say this word unto them; Let mine eyes run down with tears night and day, and let them not cease: for the virgin daughter of my people is broken with a great breach, with a very grievous blow.
18 If I go forth into the field, then behold the slain with the sword! and if I enter into the city, then behold them that are sick with famine! yea, both the prophet and the priest go about into a land that they know not.
19 Hast thou utterly rejected Judah? hath thy soul lothed Zion? why hast thou smitten us, and there is no healing for us? we looked for peace, and there is no good; and for the time of healing, and behold trouble!
20 We acknowledge, O Lord, our wickedness, and the iniquity of our fathers: for we have sinned against thee.
21 Do not abhor us, for thy name's sake, do not disgrace the throne of thy glory: remember, break not thy covenant with us.
22 Are there any among the vanities of the Gentiles that can cause rain? or can the heavens give showers? art not thou he, O Lord our God? therefore we will wait upon thee: for thou hast made all these things.
