| 59 | The word which Jeremiah the prophet commanded Seraiah the son of Neriah, son of Mahseiah, when he went with Zedekiah king of Judah to Babylon, in the fourth year of his reign. Seraiah was the quartermaster. | Jeremiah's message is sent to Babylon. Jr.51.59-64 | הַדָּבָר אֲשֶׁר־צִוָּה יִרְמְיָהוּ הַנָּבִיא אֶת־שְׂרָיָה בֶן־נֵרִיָּה בֶּן־מַחְסֵיָה בְּלֶכְתֹּו אֶת־צִדְקִיָּהוּ מֶלֶךְ־יְהוּדָה בָּבֶל בִּשְׁנַת הָרְבִעִית לְמָלְכֹו וּשְׂרָיָה שַׂר מְנוּחָה׃ |
| 60 | JEREMIAH wrote in a book all the evil that should come upon Babylon, all these words that are written concerning Babylon. | וַיִּכְתֹּב יִרְמְיָהוּ אֵת כָּל־הָרָעָה אֲשֶׁר־תָּבֹוא אֶל־בָּבֶל אֶל־סֵפֶר אֶחָד אֵת כָּל־הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה הַכְּתֻבִים אֶל־בָּבֶל׃ | |
| 61 | And Jeremiah said to Seraiah: "When you come to Babylon, see that you read all these words, | וַיֹּאמֶר יִרְמְיָהוּ אֶל־שְׂרָיָה כְּבֹאֲךָ בָבֶל וְרָאִיתָ וְקָרָאתָ אֵת כָּל־הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה׃ | |
| 62 | and say, ' O Yahweh, you have said concerning this place that you will cut it off, so that nothing shall dwell in it, neither man nor beast, and it shall be desolate for ever.' | וְאָמַרְתָּ יְהוָה אַתָּה דִבַּרְתָּ אֶל־הַמָּקֹום הַזֶּה לְהַכְרִיתֹו לְבִלְתִּי הֱיֹות־בֹּו יֹושֵׁב לְמֵאָדָם וְעַד־בְּהֵמָה כִּי־שִׁמְמֹות עֹולָם תִּהְיֶה׃ | |
| 63 | When you finish reading this book, bind a stone to it, and cast it into the midst of the Euphrates, | וְהָיָה כְּכַלֹּתְךָ לִקְרֹא אֶת־הַסֵּפֶר הַזֶּה תִּקְשֹׁר עָלָיו אֶבֶן וְהִשְׁלַכְתֹּו אֶל־תֹּוךְ פְּרָת׃ | |
| 64 | and say, 'Thus shall Babylon sink, to rise no more, because of the evil that I am bringing upon her.' " Thus far are the words of Jeremiah. | וְאָמַרְתָּ כָּכָה תִּשְׁקַע בָּבֶל וְלֹא־תָקוּם מִפְּנֵי הָרָעָה אֲשֶׁר אָנֹכִי מֵבִיא עָלֶיהָ וְיָעֵפוּ עַד־הֵנָּה דִּבְרֵי יִרְמְיָהוּ׃ ס | |
