1 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah the second time, while he was still shut up in the place of the armed watchmen, saying,
1 Y FUÉ palabra de Jehová á Jeremías la segunda vez, estando él aún preso en el patio de la cárcel, diciendo:
2 These are the words of the Lord, who is doing it, the Lord who is forming it, to make it certain; the Lord is his name;
2 Así ha dicho Jehová que la hizo, Jehová que la formó para afirmarla; Jehová es su nombre:
3 Let your cry come to me, and I will give you an answer, and let you see great things and secret things of which you had no knowledge.
3 Clama á mí, y te responderé, y te enseñaré cosas grandes y dificultosas que tú no sabes.
4 For this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, has said about the houses of this town and the houses of the kings of Judah, which have been broken down to make earthworks and ... ;
4 Porque así ha dicho Jehová, Dios de Israel, acerca de las casas de esta ciudad, y de las casas de los reyes de Judá, derribadas con arietes y con hachas:
5 ... and to make them full of the dead bodies of men whom I have put to death in my wrath and in my passion, and because of whose evil-doing I have kept my face covered from this town.
5 (Porque vinieron para pelear con los Caldeos, para henchirlas de cuerpos de hombres muertos, á los cuales herí yo con mi furor y con mi ira, pues que escondí mi rostro de esta ciudad, á causa de toda su malicia:)
6 See, I will make it healthy and well again, I will even make them well; I will let them see peace and good faith in full measure.
6 He aquí que yo le hago subir sanidad y medicina; y los curaré, y les revelaré abundancia de paz y de verdad.
7 And I will let the fate of Judah and of Israel be changed, building them up as at first.
7 Y haré volver la cautividad de Judá, y la cautividad de Israel, y edificarélos como al principio.
8 And I will make them clean from all their sin, with which they have been sinning against me; I will have forgiveness for all their sins, with which they have been sinning against me, and with which they have done evil against me.
8 Y los limpiaré de toda su maldad con que pecaron contra mí; y perdonaré todos sus pecados con que contra mí pecaron, y con que contra mí se rebelaron.
9 And this town will be to me for a name of joy, for a praise and a glory before all the nations of the earth, who, hearing of all the good which I am doing for them, will be shaking with fear because of all the good and the peace which I am doing for it.
9 Y seráme á mí por nombre de gozo, de alabanza y de gloria, entre todas las gentes de la tierra, que habrán oído todo el bien que yo les hago; y temerán y temblarán de todo el bien y de toda la paz que yo les haré.
10 This is what the Lord has said: There will again be sounding in this place, of which you say, It is a waste, without man and without beast; even in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem which are waste and unpeopled, without man and without beast,
10 Así ha dicho Jehová: En este lugar, del cual decís que está desierto sin hombres y sin animales, en las ciudades de Judá y en las calles de Jerusalem, que están asoladas sin hombre y sin morador y sin animal, tiene de oirse aún,
11 Happy sounds, the voice of joy, the voice of the newly-married man and the voice of the bride, the voices of those who say, Give praise to the Lord of armies, for the Lord is good, for his mercy is unchanging for ever: the voices of those who go with praise into the house of the Lord. For I will let the land come back to its first condition, says the Lord.
11 Voz de gozo y voz de alegría, voz de desposado y voz de desposada, voz de los que digan: Alabad á Jehová de los ejércitos, porque Jehová es bueno, porque para siempre [es] su misericordia; [voz] de los que traigan alabanza á la casa de Jehová. Porque tornaré á traer la cautividad de la tierra como al principio, ha dicho Jehová.
12 This is what the Lord of armies has said: Again there will be in this place, which is a waste, without man and without beast, and in all its towns, a resting-place where the keepers of sheep will make their flocks take rest.
12 Así dice Jehová de los ejércitos: En este lugar desierto, sin hombre y sin animal, y en todas sus ciudades, aun habrá cabañas de pastores que hagan tener majada á ganados.
13 In the towns of the hill-country, in the towns of the lowland, and in the towns of the South and in the land of Benjamin and in the country round Jerusalem and in the towns of Judah, the flocks will again go under the hand of him who is numbering them, says the Lord.
13 En las ciudades de las montañas, en las ciudades de los campos, y en las ciudades del mediodía, y en tierra de Benjamín, y alrededor de Jerusalem y en las ciudades de Judá, aun pasarán ganados por las manos de los contadores, ha dicho Jehová.
14◆ See, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will give effect to the good word which I have said about the people of Israel and the people of Judah.
14 He aquí vienen días, dice Jehová, en que yo confirmaré la palabra buena que he hablado á la casa de Israel y á la casa de Judá.
15◆ In those days and at that time, I will let a Branch of righteousness come up for David; and he will be a judge in righteousness in the land.
15 En aquellos días y en aquel tiempo haré producir á David Pimpollo de justicia, y hará juicio y justicia en la tierra.
16◆ In those days, Judah will have salvation and Jerusalem will be safe: and this is the name which will be given to her: The Lord is our righteousness.
16 En aquellos días Judá será salvo, y Jerusalem habitará seguramente, y esto es lo que la llamarán: Jehová, justicia nuestra.
17◆ For the Lord has said, David will never be without a man to take his place on the seat of the kingdom of Israel;
17 Porque así ha dicho Jehová: No faltará á David varón que se siente sobre el trono de la casa de Israel;
18◆ And the priests and the Levites will never be without a man to come before me, offering burned offerings and perfumes and meal offerings and offerings of beasts at all times.
18 Y de los sacerdotes y Levitas no faltará varón de mi presencia que ofrezca holocausto, y encienda presente, y que haga sacrificio todos los días.
19 Y fué palabra de Jehová á Jeremías, diciendo:
20◆ The Lord has said: If it is possible for my agreement of the day and the night to be broken, so that day and night no longer come at their fixed times,
20 Así ha dicho Jehová: Si pudiereis invalidar mi concierto con el día y mi concierto con la noche, por manera que no haya día ni noche á su tiempo,
21◆ Then my agreement with my servant David may be broken, so that he no longer has a son to take his place on the seat of the kingdom; and my agreement with the Levites, the priests, my servants.
21 Podráse también invalidar mi pacto con mi siervo David, para que deje de tener hijo que reine sobre su trono, y con los Levitas y sacerdotes, mis ministros.
22◆ As it is not possible for the army of heaven to be numbered, or the sand of the sea measured, so will I make the seed of my servant David, and the Levites my servants.
22 Como no puede ser contado el ejército del cielo, ni la arena de la mar se puede medir, así multiplicaré la simiente de David mi siervo, y los Levitas que á mí ministran.
23 Y fué palabra de Jehová á Jeremías, diciendo:
24◆ Have you taken note of what these people have said, The two families, which the Lord took for himself, he has given up? This they say, looking down on my people as being, in their eyes, no longer a nation.
24 ¿No has echado de ver lo que habla este pueblo diciendo: Dos familias que Jehová escogiera ha desechado? y han tenido en poco mi pueblo, hasta no tenerlos más por nación.
25◆ The Lord has said, If I have not made day and night, and if the limits of heaven and earth have not been fixed by me,
25 Así ha dicho Jehová: Si no [permaneciere] mi concierto con el día y la noche, si yo no he puesto las leyes del cielo y la tierra,
26◆ Then I will give up caring for the seed of Jacob and of David my servant, so that I will not take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will let their fate be changed and will have mercy on them.
26 También desecharé la simiente de Jacob, y de David mi siervo, para no tomar de su simiente quien sea señor sobre la simiente de Abraham, de Isaac, y de Jacob. Porque haré volver su cautividad, y tendré de ellos misericordia.

Why does my Bible say something different?
- Jeremiah: a shorter book in a different order
The Greek Septuagint of Jeremiah is markedly shorter than the Hebrew text and arranges the book differently: the oracles against the nations come in the middle, after 25:13, not at the end. Hebrew fragments from Qumran show that a shorter Hebrew form of Jeremiah really existed. Many scholars think Jeremiah circulated in two editions.
