- Behold:
- "And he shall lead²°¹¹ Zedekiahª to Babylon,ª and there¹ shall he be¹ until¹ I visitª° him, saithª° the LORD:ª though¹ ye fightª° with¹ the Chaldeans,ª ye shall not¹ prosper.ª°" {Jer 32:5} + "They comeª° to fightª° with¹ the Chaldeans,ª but [it is] to fillª° them with¹ the dead bodiesª of men,ª whom¹ I have slainª° in mine angerª and in my fury,ª and for¹ all¹ whose¹ wickednessª I have hidª° my faceª from this¹ city.ª¹" {Jer 33:5} + "And the Chaldeansª shall come again,ª° and fightª° against¹ this¹ city,ª and takeª° it, and burnª° it with fire.ª ... For¹ though¹ ye had smittenª° the whole¹ armyª of the Chaldeansª that fightª° against¹ you, and there remainedª° [but] woundedª° men²¹ among them, [yet] should they rise¹ up²° every manª in his tent,ª and burnª°¹ this¹ cityª with fire.ª" {Jer 37:8-10} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª He that remainethª° in this¹ cityª shall dieª° by the sword,ª by the famine,ª and by the pestilence:ª but he that goeth forthª° to¹ the Chaldeansª shall live;ª° for he shall have¹ his lifeª for a prey,ª and shall live.ª²°°° ... Thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª This¹ cityª shall surely²° be givenª° into the handª of the kingª of Babylon'sª army,ª which shall takeª° it." {Jer 38:2-3} + "Then saidª° Jeremiahª unto¹ Zedekiah,ª Thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª the Godª of hosts,ª the Godª of Israel;ª If¹ thou wilt assuredly²° go forthª° unto¹ the kingª of Babylon'sª princes,ª then thy soulª shall live,ª° and this¹ cityª shall not¹ be burnedª° with fire;ª and thou¹ shalt live,ª° and thine house:ª ... But if¹ thou wilt not¹ go forthª° to¹ the kingª of Babylon'sª princes,ª then shall this¹ cityª be givenª° into the handª of the Chaldeans,ª and they shall burnª° it with fire,ª and thou¹ shalt not¹ escape¹ out²° of their hand.ª¹" {Jer 38:17-18} + "The caldronsª also, and the shovels,ª and the snuffers,ª and the bowls,ª and the spoons,ª and all¹ the vesselsª of brassª wherewith¹ they ministered,ª° took they away.ª°" {Jer 52:18} + "Without¹ me they shall² bow downª° under¹ the prisoners,ª and they shall fallª° under¹ the slain.ª° For all¹ this¹ his angerª is not¹ turned away,ª° but his handª [is] stretched out¹ still.²°¹" {Isa 10:4} + "Though¹¹ they bring upª°¹ their children,ª yet will I bereaveª° them, [that there shall] not [be] a manª¹ [left]: yea,¹ woeª also¹ to them when I departª° from¹ them!" {Hsa 9:12}
