- કેમ કે તમે તમારાં હ્રદયોમાં કપટ કર્યું છે. ‘કારણ કે અમારા ઈશ્વર યહોવાહની આગળ અમારે માટે પ્રાર્થના કર. અને જે કંઈ અમારા ઈશ્વર યહોવાહ કહે છે તે તું અમને કહેજે અને અમે તે કરીશું.’
- हिन्दी — यिर्मयाह ४२:२०
- क्योंकि जब तुम ने मुझ को यह कहकर अपने परमेश्वर यहोवा के पास भेज दिया, ‘हमारे निमित्त हमारे परमेश्वर यहोवा से प्रार्थना कर और जो कुछ हमारा परमेश्वर यहोवा कहे उसी के अनुसार हमको बता और हम वैसा ही करेंगे,’ तब तुम जान-बूझके अपने ही को धोखा देते थे ।
In context
18For the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: ‘As my anger and my wrath has been poured out on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so my wrath will be poured out on you, when you enter into Egypt; and you will be an object of horror, an astonishment, a curse, and a reproach; and you will see this place no more.’
19“The LORD has spoken concerning you, remnant of Judah, ‘Don’t go into Egypt!’ Know certainly that I have testified to you today.
20For you have dealt deceitfully against your own souls; for you sent me to the LORD your God, saying, ‘Pray for us to the LORD our God; and according to all that the LORD our God says, so declare to us, and we will do it.’
21I have declared it to you today; but you have not obeyed the LORD your God’s voice in anything for which he has sent me to you.
22Now therefore know certainly that you will die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence in the place where you desire to go to live.”
