Then Jeremiah said to them: “Thus you shall say to Zedekiah,
Then Jeremiah said to them, “Thus you shall say to Zedekiah,
‘Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Behold, I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands and with which you are fighting against the king of Babylon and against the Chaldeans who are besieging you outside the walls. And I will bring them together into the midst of this city.
I myself will fight against you with outstretched hand and strong arm, in anger and in fury and in great wrath.
I Myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even in anger and fury and great wrath.
And I will strike down the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast. They shall die of a great pestilence.
I will strike the inhabitants of this city, both man and beast; they shall die of a great pestilence.
Afterward, declares the Lord, I will give Zedekiah king of Judah and his servants and the people in this city who survive the pestilence, sword, and famine into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and into the hand of their enemies, into the hand of those who seek their lives. He shall strike them down with the edge of the sword. He shall not pity them or spare them or have compassion.’
And afterward,” says the Lord, “I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah, his servants and the people, and such as are left in this city from the pestilence and the sword and the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life; and he shall strike them with the edge of the sword. He shall not spare them, or have pity or mercy.” ’
“And to this people you shall say: ‘Thus says the Lord: Behold, I set before you the way of life and the way of death.
“Now you shall say to this people, ‘Thus says the Lord: “Behold, I set before you the way of life and the way of death.
He who stays in this city shall die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence, but he who goes out and surrenders to the Chaldeans who are besieging you shall live and shall have his life as a prize of war.
For I have set my face against this city for harm and not for good, declares the Lord: it shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.’
For I have set My face against this city for adversity and not for good,” says the Lord. “It shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.” ’
