Jeremiah 34:18-20
1599 Geneva Bible
18 And I will give those men that have broken my Covenant, and have not kept the words of the Covenant, which they had made before me, when they [a]cut the calf in twain, and passed between the parts thereof,
19 The princes of Judah, and the princes of Jerusalem, the Eunuchs, and the Priests, and all the people of the land, which passed between the parts of the calf,
20 I will even give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hands of them that seek their life: and their dead bodies shall be for meat unto the fowls of the heaven, and to the beasts of the earth.
