¹¹ “Therefore this is what the Lord Almighty,^(A) the God of Israel, says: I am determined to bring disaster^(B) on you and to destroy all Judah.

²⁷ For I am watching^(A) over them for harm,^(B) not for good; the Jews in Egypt will perish^(C) by sword and famine^(D) until they are all destroyed.^(E)

⁷ I will set my face against^(A) them. Although they have come out of the fire^(B), the fire will yet consume them. And when I set my face against them, you will know that I am the Lord.^(C)

¹³ He set fire^(A) to the temple^(B) of the Lord, the royal palace and all the houses^(C) of Jerusalem. Every important building he burned down.

⁸ The Babylonians^[a] set fire^(A) to the royal palace and the houses of the people and broke down the walls^(B) of Jerusalem.

¹⁸ But if you will not surrender to the officers of the king of Babylon, this city will be given into the hands^(A) of the Babylonians and they will burn^(B) it down; you yourself will not escape^(C) from them.’”

³ And this is what the Lord says: ‘This city will certainly be given into the hands of the army of the king of Babylon, who will capture it.’”^(A)
