절	Contemporary English Version (2006)	King James Version
1	Jeremiah's Linen Shorts The Lord told me, “Go and buy a pair of linen shorts. Wear them for a while, but don't wash them.”	Thus saith the Lord unto me, Go and get thee a linen girdle, and put it upon thy loins, and put it not in water.
2	So I bought a pair of shorts and put them on.	So I got a girdle according to the word of the Lord, and put it on my loins.
3	Then the Lord said,	And the word of the Lord came unto me the second time, saying,
4	“Take off the shorts. Go to Parah and hide the shorts in a crack between some large rocks.”	Take the girdle that thou hast got, which is upon thy loins, and arise, go to Euphrates, and hide it there in a hole of the rock.
5	And that's what I did.	So I went, and hid it by Euphrates, as the Lord commanded me.
6	Some time later the Lord said, “Go back and get the shorts.”	And it came to pass after many days, that the Lord said unto me, Arise, go to Euphrates, and take the girdle from thence, which I commanded thee to hide there.
7	I went back and dug the shorts out of their hiding place, but the cloth had rotted, and the shorts were ruined.	Then I went to Euphrates, and digged, and took the girdle from the place where I had hid it: and, behold, the girdle was marred, it was profitable for nothing.
8	Then the Lord said:	Then the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
9	Jeremiah, I will use Babylonia to destroy the pride of the people of Judah and Jerusalem.	Thus saith the Lord, After this manner will I mar the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem.
10	The people of Judah are evil and stubborn. So instead of listening to me, they do whatever they want and even worship other gods. When I am finished with these people, they will be good for nothing, just like this pair of shorts.	This evil people, which refuse to hear my words, which walk in the imagination of their heart, and walk after other gods, to serve them, and to worship them, shall even be as this girdle, which is good for nothing.
11	These shorts were tight around your waist, and that's how tightly I held onto the kingdoms of Israel and Judah. I wanted them to be my people. I wanted to make them famous, so that other nations would praise and honor me, but they refused to obey me.	For as the girdle cleaveth to the loins of a man, so have I caused to cleave unto me the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah, saith the Lord; that they might be unto me for a people, and for a name, and for a praise, and for a glory: but they would not hear.
12	Wine Jars / The said: Jeremiah, tell the people of Judah, “The Lord God of Israel orders you to fill your wine jars with wine.” They will answer, “Of course we fill our wine jars with wine! Why are you telling us something we already know?”	Therefore thou shalt speak unto them this word; Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Every bottle shall be filled with wine: and they shall say unto thee, Do we not certainly know that every bottle shall be filled with wine?
13	Then say to them: I am the Lord, and what I'm going to do will make everyone in Judah and Jerusalem appear to be full of wine. And the worst ones will be the kings of David's family and the priests and the prophets.	Then shalt thou say unto them, Thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the kings that sit upon David’s throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness.
14	Then I will smash them against each other like jars. I will have no pity on the young or the old, and they will all be destroyed. I, the Lord, have spoken.	And I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, saith the Lord: I will not pity, nor spare, nor have mercy, but destroy them.
15	The People of Judah Will Be Taken Away People of Judah, don't be too proud to listen to what the Lord has said.	Hear ye, and give ear; be not proud: for the Lord hath spoken.
16	You hope for light, but God is sending darkness. Evening shadows already deepen in the hills. So return to God and confess your sins to him before you trip and fall.	Give glory to the Lord your God, before he cause darkness, and before your feet stumble upon the dark mountains, and, while ye look for light, he turn it into the shadow of death, and make it gross darkness.
17	If you are too proud to listen, I will weep alone. Tears will stream from my eyes when the Lord's people are taken away as prisoners.	But if ye will not hear it, my soul shall weep in secret places for your pride; and mine eye shall weep sore, and run down with tears, because the Lord’s flock is carried away captive.
18	The Lord told me to tell you that your king and his mother must surrender their thrones and remove their crowns.	Say unto the king and to the queen, Humble yourselves, sit down: for your principalities shall come down, even the crown of your glory.
19	The cities in the Southern Desert are surrounded; no one can get in or out. Everyone in Judah will be taken away.	The cities of the south shall be shut up, and none shall open them: Judah shall be carried away captive all of it, it shall be wholly carried away captive.
20	Jerusalem, you were so proud of ruling the people of Judah. But where are they now? Look north, and you will see your enemies approaching.	Lift up your eyes, and behold them that come from the north: where is the flock that was given thee, thy beautiful flock?
21	You once trusted them to help, but now I'll let them rule you. What do you say about that? You will be in pain like a woman giving birth.	What wilt thou say when he shall punish thee? for thou hast taught them to be captains, and as chief over thee: shall not sorrows take thee, as a woman in travail?
22	Do you know why your clothes were torn off and you were abused? It was because of your terrible sins.	And if thou say in thine heart, Wherefore come these things upon me? For the greatness of thine iniquity are thy skirts discovered, and thy heels made bare.
23	Can you ever change and do what's right? Can people change the color of their skin, or can a leopard remove its spots? If so, then maybe you can change and learn to do right.	Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? then may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil.
24	I will scatter you, just as the desert wind blows husks from grain tossed in the air.	Therefore will I scatter them as the stubble that passeth away by the wind of the wilderness.
25	I won't change my mind. I, the Lord, have spoken. You rejected me and worshiped false gods. *	This is thy lot, the portion of thy measures from me, saith the Lord; because thou hast forgotten me, and trusted in falsehood.
26	You were married to me, but you were unfaithful. You even became a prostitute by worshiping disgusting gods on hilltops and in fields.	Therefore will I discover thy skirts upon thy face, that thy shame may appear.
27	So I'll rip off your clothes and leave you naked and ashamed for everyone to see. You are doomed! Will you ever be worthy to worship me again?	I have seen thine adulteries, and thy neighings, the lewdness of thy whoredom, and thine abominations on the hills in the fields. Woe unto thee, O Jerusalem! wilt thou not be made clean? when shall it once be?
