[But] thou shalt dieª° in peace:ª and with the burningsª of thy fathers,ª the formerª kingsª which¹ were¹ beforeª thee, so¹ shall they burnª° [odours] for thee; and they will lamentª° thee, [saying], Ahª lord!ª for¹ I¹ have pronouncedª° the word,ª saithª° the LORD.ª" {Jer 34:3-5} + "¹ My netª also will I spreadª° upon¹ him, and he shall be takenª° in my snare:ª and I will bringª° him to Babylonª [to] the landª of the Chaldeans;ª yet shall he not¹ seeª° it, though he shall dieª° there.¹" {Ezk 12:13}
