Thus saith the LORD God of Israel Yisra #
el #;
Behold ,
I will turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands ,
wherewith ye fight against the king of Babylon ,
and against the Chaldeans ,
which besiege you without the walls ,
and I will assemble them into the midst of this city .
*
And I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm ,
even in anger ,
and in fury ,
and in great wrath .
*
And I will smite the inhabitants of this city ,
both man and beast :
they shall die of a great pestilence .
*
And afterward ,
saith the LORD ,
I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah ,
and his servants ,
and the people ,
and such as are left in this city from the pestilence ,
from the sword ,
and from the famine ra #
ab #,
into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon ,
and into the hand of their enemies ,
and into the hand of those that seek their life :
and he shall smite them with the edge of the sword ;
he shall not spare them ,
neither have pity ,
nor have mercy .
*
And unto this people thou shalt say ,
Thus saith the LORD ;
Behold ,
I set before you the way of life ,
and the way of death .
*
He that abideth in this city shall die by the sword ,
and by the famine ra #
ab #,
and by the pestilence :
but he that goeth out ,
and falleth to the Chaldeans that besiege you ,
he shall live (
8675 ),
and his life shall be unto him for a prey .
*
For I have set my face against this city for evil ,
and not for good ,
saith the LORD :
it shall be given into the hand of the king of Babylon ,
and he shall burn it with fire .
*
And touching the house of the king of Judah ,
say ,
Hear ye the word of the LORD ;
*
O house of David ,
thus saith the LORD ;
Execute judgment in the morning ,
and deliver him that is spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor ,
lest my fury go out like fire ,
and burn that none can quench it ,
because of the evil of your doings ma #
alal #.
*
Behold ,
I am against thee ,
O inhabitant of the valley ,
and rock of the plain ,
saith the LORD ;
which say ,
Who shall come down against us ?
or who shall enter into our habitations m @#
ownah #?
*
But I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings ma #
alal #,
saith the LORD :
and I will kindle a fire in the forest thereof ,
and it shall devour all things round about it .
