²⁵ And you, O profane^{[a] (A)}wicked one, prince of Israel, ^(B)whose day has come, ^(C)the time of your final punishment,

⁵ Because ^(A)you cherished perpetual enmity and gave over the people of Israel to the power of the sword ^(B)at the time of their calamity, ^(C)at the time of their final punishment,

²⁹ while ^(A)they see for you false visions, while they divine lies for you—to place you on the necks of the profane wicked, ^(B)whose day has come, the time of their final punishment.

¹⁹ Therefore thus says the Lord God: As I live, surely it is my oath that he despised, and my covenant that he broke. I will return it upon his head.

² And he did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, ^(A)according to all that Jehoiakim had done.

^13 (A)He also rebelled against King Nebuchadnezzar, who had made him swear by God. ^(B)He stiffened his neck and hardened his heart against turning to the Lord, the God of Israel.

^6 (A)An end has come; the end has come; it has awakened against you. Behold, it comes.

⁸ “But thus says the Lord: Like ^(A)the bad figs that are so bad they cannot be eaten, so will I treat ^(B)Zedekiah the king of Judah, his officials, the remnant of Jerusalem who remain in this land, and those who ^(C)dwell in the land of Egypt.
