예레미야 1장 [NIV]

1. 1 The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests that were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin:

   1 The words of Jeremiah son of Hilkiah, one of the priests at Anathoth in the territory of Benjamin.

2. 2 to whom the word of Jehovah came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign.

   2 The word of the LORD came to him in the thirteenth year of the reign of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah,

3. 3 It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, unto the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, unto the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month.

   3 and through the reign of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, down to the fifth month of the eleventh year of Zedekiah son of Josiah king of Judah, when the people of Jerusalem went into exile.

4. 4 Now the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

   4 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,

5. 5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee; I have appointed thee a prophet unto the nations.

   5 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations."

6. 6 Then said I, Ah, Lord Jehovah! behold, I know not how to speak; for I am a child.

   6 "Ah, Sovereign LORD," I said, "I do not know how to speak; I am only a child."

7. 7 But Jehovah said unto me, Say not, I am a child; for to whomsoever I shall send thee thou shalt go, and whatsoever I shall command thee thou shalt speak.

   7 But the LORD said to me, "Do not say, I am only a child. You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you.

8. 8 Be not afraid because of them; for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith Jehovah.

   8 Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you," declares the LORD.

9. 9 Then Jehovah put forth his hand, and touched my mouth; and Jehovah said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth:

   9 Then the LORD reached out his hand and touched my mouth and said to me, "Now, I have put my words in your mouth.

10. 10 see, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to pluck up and to break down and to destroy and to overthrow, to build and to plant.

    10 See, today I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant."

11. 11 Moreover the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, what seest thou? And I said, I see a rod of an almond-tree.

    11 The word of the LORD came to me: "What do you see, Jeremiah?" "I see the branch of an almond tree," I replied.

12. 12 Then said Jehovah unto me, Thou hast well seen: for I watch over my word to perform it.

    12 The LORD said to me, "You have seen correctly, for I am watching to see that my word is fulfilled."

13. 13 And the word of Jehovah came unto me the second time, saying, What seest thou? And I said, I see a boiling caldron; and the face thereof is from the north.

    13 The word of the LORD came to me again: "What do you see?" "I see a boiling pot, tilting away from the north," I answered.

14. 14 Then Jehovah said unto me, Out of the north evil shall break forth upon all the inhabitants of the land.

    14 The LORD said to me, "From the north disaster will be poured out on all who live in the land.

15. 15 For, lo, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north, saith Jehovah; and they shall come, and they shall set every one his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all the walls thereof round about, and against all the cities of Judah.

    15 I am about to summon all the peoples of the northern kingdoms," declares the LORD. "Their kings will come and set up their thrones in the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem; they will come against all her surrounding walls and against all the towns of Judah.

16. 16 And I will utter my judgments against them touching all their wickedness, in that they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, and worshipped the works of their own hands.

    16 I will pronounce my judgments on my people because of their wickedness in forsaking me, in burning incense to other gods and in worshiping what their hands have made.

17. 17 Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak unto them all that I command thee: be not dismayed at them, lest I dismay thee before them.

    17 "Get yourself ready! Stand up and say to them whatever I command you. Do not be terrified by them, or I will terrify you before them.

18. 18 For, behold, I have made thee this day a fortified city, and an iron pillar, and brazen walls, against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against the princes thereof, against the priests thereof, and against the people of the land.

    18 Today I have made you a fortified city, an iron pillar and a bronze wall to stand against the whole land--against the kings of Judah, its officials, its priests and the people of the land.

19. 19 And they shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail against thee: for I am with thee, saith Jehovah, to deliver thee.

    19 They will fight against you but will not overcome you, for I am with you and will rescue you," declares the LORD.
