“But thus says the Lord: Like (A)the bad figs that are so bad they cannot be eaten, so will I treat (B)Zedekiah the king of Judah, his officials, the remnant of Jerusalem who remain in this land, and those who (C)dwell in the land of Egypt. I will make them (D)a horror[a] to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be (E)a reproach, (F)a byword, (G)a taunt, and (H)a curse in all the places where I shall drive them. 10 And I will send (I)sword, famine, and pestilence upon them, until they shall be utterly destroyed from the land that I gave to them and their fathers.”
