Jeremiah 20:3 in Context — Jeremiah 20

1 Y PASHUR sacerdote, hijo de Immer, que presidía por príncipe en la casa de Jehová, oyó á Jeremías que profetizaba estas palabras.

2 E hirió Pashur á Jeremías profeta, y púsole en el cepo que estaba á la puerta de Benjamín en lo alto, la cual [conducía] á la casa de Jehová.

3 Y el día siguiente Pashur sacó á Jeremías del cepo. Díjole entonces Jeremías: Jehová no ha llamado tu nombre Pashur, sino Magor-missabib.

4 Porque así ha dicho Jehová: He aquí yo te pondré en espanto á ti, y á todos los que bien te quieren, y caerán por el cuchillo de sus enemigos, y tus ojos lo verán: y á todo Judá entregaré en mano del rey de Babilonia, y los trasportará á Babilonia, y herirálos á cuchillo.

5 Entregaré asimismo toda la sustancia de esta ciudad, y todo su trabajo, y todas sus cosas preciosas; y daré todos los tesoros de los reyes de Judá en manos de sus enemigos, y los saquearán, y los tomarán, y llevaránlos á Babilonia.
