Isaiah 62 (AMP)

Isaiah Chapter 62 (AMP)

Compare with Version:

¹ Then at Riblah the king of Babylon killed the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes; the king of Babylon also killed all the nobles of Judah.

² Moreover, he blinded Zedekiah and bound him with bronze shackles to take him to Babylon.

³ The Chaldeans also burned down the king's palace and the houses of the people, and they broke down the walls of Jerusalem.

⁴ Then Nebuzaradan the [chief executioner and] captain of the bodyguard took the rest of the people who remained in the city, along with those who had deserted and surrendered to him, and the rest of the [so-called better class of] people who were left and carried them into exile in Babylon.

⁵ But Nebuzaradan the [Babylonian] captain of the bodyguard left behind in the land of Judah some of the poor people who had nothing, and gave them vineyards and fields at that time.

⁶ Now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon gave orders concerning Jeremiah through Nebuzaradan the captain of the bodyguard, saying,

⁷ Take him and look after him; do nothing to harm him, but rather deal with him just as he asks of you.

⁸ So Nebuzaradan the captain of the bodyguard sent word, along with Nebushazban the Rab-saris (chief of the high officials), and Nergal-sar-ezer the Rab-mag (chief of the magicians), and all the leading officers of the king of Babylon;

⁹ they even sent and took Jeremiah out of the court of the guardhouse and entrusted him to Gedaliah [a prominent citizen], the son of Ahikam [who had once saved Jeremiah's life], the son of Shaphan, to take him home [with him to Mizpah]. So Jeremiah [was released and] lived among the people.

¹⁰ Now the word of the LORD had come to Jeremiah while he was [still] confined in the court of the guardhouse, saying,

¹¹ Go and speak to Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, saying, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Behold, I am about to bring My words [of judgment] against this city through disaster and not for good; and they will take place before you on that day.

¹² But I will[2] protect you [Ebed-melech] on that day," says the LORD, "and you will not be handed over to the men of whom you are afraid.
