LXXUP Updated Brenton English Septuagint
PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 And it came to pass, when Jeremiah ceased speaking to the people all the words of the Lord, [for] which the Lord had sent him to them, [even] all these words,
·
2 that Azariah son of Hoshaiah spoke, and Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the men who had spoken to Jeremiah, saying, [It is] false: the Lord has not sent thee to us, saying, Enter not into Egypt to dwell there:
·
3 but Baruch the son of Neriah sets thee against us, that thou mayest deliver us into the hands of the Chaldeans, to kill us, and that we should be carried away captives to Babylon.
·
4 So Johanan, and all the leaders of the host, and all the people, refused to hearken to the voice of the Lord, to dwell in the land of Judah.
·
5 And Johanan, and all the leaders of the host, took all the remnant of Judah, who had returned to dwell in the land;
·
6 the mighty men, and the women, and the children that were left, and the daughters of the king, and the souls which Nebuzaradan had left with Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch the son of Neriah.
·
7 And they came into Egypt: for they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord: and they entered into Tahpanhes.
·
8 And the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,
·
9 Take thee great stones, and hide them in the entrance, at the gate of the house of Pharaoh in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the men of Judah:
·
10 and thou shalt say, Thus has the Lord said; Behold, I [will] send, and will bring Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he shall place his throne upon these stones which thou hast hidden, and he shall lift up weapons against them.
·
11 And he shall enter in, and smite the land of Egypt, [delivering] some for death to death; and some for captivity to captivity; and some for the sword to the sword.
·
12 And he shall kindle a fire in the houses of their gods, and shall burn them, and shall carry them away captives: and shall search the land of Egypt, as a shepherd searches his garment; and he shall go forth in peace.
·
13 And he shall break to pieces the pillars of Heliopolis that are in On, and shall burn their houses with fire.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 50:31 Gregory of Nazianzus, Theological Orations (The First Theological Oration)

    I am to speak against persons who pride themselves on their eloquence; so, to begin with a text of Scripture, "Behold, I am against thee, O thou proud one," not only in thy system of teaching, but also in thy hearing, and in thy tone of mind.
