1 And it came to pass the same year, in the be­gin­ning of the reign of Zedeki­ah king of Ju­dah, in the fourth year, and in the fifth month, that Hana­ni­ah the son of Azur the prophet, which was of Gibeon, spake unto me in the house of the LORD, in the pres­ence of the priests and of all the peo­ple, say­ing, 2 Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, the God of Is­rael, say­ing, I have bro­ken the yoke of the king of Baby­lon. 3 With­in two full years will I bring again into this place all the ves­sels of the LORD'S house, that Neb­uchad­nez­zar king of Baby­lon took away from this place, and car­ried them to Baby­lon: 4 And I will bring again to this place Je­co­ni­ah the son of Je­hoiakim king of Ju­dah, with all the cap­tives of Ju­dah, that went into Baby­lon, saith the LORD: for I will break the yoke of the king of Baby­lon. 5 Then the prophet Jeremi­ah said unto the prophet Hana­ni­ah in the pres­ence of the priests, and in the pres­ence of all the peo­ple that stood in the house of the LORD, 6 Even the prophet Jeremi­ah said, Amen: the LORD do so: the LORD per­form thy words which thou hast proph­e­sied, to bring again the ves­sels of the LORD'S house, and all that is car­ried away cap­tive, from Baby­lon into this place. 7 Nev­er­the­less hear thou now this word that I speak in thine ears, and in the ears of all the peo­ple; 8 The prophets that have been be­fore me and be­fore thee of old proph­e­sied both against many coun­tries, and against great king­doms, of war, and of evil, and of pesti­lence. 9 The prophet which proph­e­si­eth of peace, when the word of the prophet shall come to pass, then shall the prophet be known, that the LORD hath tru­ly sent him. 10 Then Hana­ni­ah the prophet took the yoke from off the prophet Jeremiah's neck, and brake it. 11 And Hana­ni­ah spake in the pres­ence of all the peo­ple, say­ing, Thus saith the LORD; Even so will I break the yoke of Neb­uchad­nez­zar king of Baby­lon from the neck of all na­tions with­in the space of two full years. And the prophet Jeremi­ah went his way. 12 Then the word of the LORD came unto Jeremi­ah the prophet, af­ter that Hana­ni­ah the prophet had bro­ken the yoke from off the neck of the prophet Jeremi­ah, say­ing, 13 Go and tell Hana­ni­ah, say­ing, Thus saith the LORD; Thou hast bro­ken the yokes of wood; but thou shalt make for them yokes of iron. 14 For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Is­rael; I have put a yoke of iron upon the neck of all these na­tions, that they may serve Neb­uchad­nez­zar king of Baby­lon; and they shall serve him: and I have giv­en him the beasts of the field al­so. 15 Then said the prophet Jeremi­ah unto Hana­ni­ah the prophet, Hear now, Hana­ni­ah; The LORD hath not sent thee; but thou mak­est this peo­ple to trust in a lie. 16 There­fore thus saith the LORD; Be­hold, I will cast thee from off the face of the earth: this year thou shalt die, be­cause thou hast taught re­bel­lion against the LORD. 17 So Hana­ni­ah the prophet died the same year in the sev­enth month.
