¹⁵But ^(A)he rebelled against him by sending his ambassadors to Egypt, ^(B)that they might give him horses and many people. ^(C)Will he prosper? Will he who does such things escape? Can he break a covenant and still be delivered?

¹⁶‘As I live,’ says the Lord God, ‘surely ^(D)in the place where the king dwells who made him king, whose oath he despised and whose covenant he broke—with him in the midst of Babylon he shall die. ¹⁷^(E)Nor will Pharaoh with his mighty army and great company do anything in the war, ^(F)when they heap up a siege mound and build a ^[a]wall to cut off many persons. ¹⁸Since he despised the oath by breaking the covenant, and in fact ^(G)gave^[b] his hand and still did all these things, he shall not escape.’ ”

¹⁹Therefore thus says the Lord God: “As I live, surely My oath which he despised, and My covenant which he broke, I will recompense on his own head. ²⁰I will ^(H)spread My net over him, and he shall be taken in My snare. I will bring him to Babylon and ^(I)try him there for the ^[c]treason which he committed against Me. ²¹^(J)All his ^[d]fugitives with all his troops shall fall by the sword, and those who remain shall be ^(K)scattered to every wind; and you shall know that I, the Lord, have spoken.”
