Jeremiah 34:5-7

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁵ you will die peacefully. There will be a burning ceremony for you just like the burning ceremonies for your fathers, the former kings who preceded you.^(A) ‘Our king is dead!’^[a] will be the lament for you, for I have spoken this word.” This is the Lord’s declaration.

⁶ So Jeremiah the prophet related all these words to Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem ⁷ while the king of Babylon’s army was attacking Jerusalem and all of Judah’s remaining cities—against Lachish and Azekah,^(B) for they were the only ones left of Judah’s fortified cities.
