For thus says Yahweh, ‘Behold, I am going to make you a (C)terror to yourself and to all your friends; and while (D)your eyes look on, they will fall by the sword of their enemies. So I will (E)give over all Judah to the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will take them away into (F)exile to Babylon and will strike them down with the sword. I will also give over all the (G)wealth of this city, all the fruit of its labor, and all its precious things; even all the treasures of the kings of Judah I will give over to the (H)hand of their enemies, and they will plunder them, take them away, and bring them to Babylon. And you, (I)Pashhur, and all who live in your house will go into captivity; and you will enter Babylon, and there you will die, and there you will be buried, you and all your (J)friends to whom you have (K)prophesied lies.’”
