Jeremiah Tells the Nations to Submit to Babylon

27 At the beginning of the reign of Josiah’s son Jehoiakim, king of Judah, this message came to Jeremiah from the Lord: ² this is what the Lord says to me: “Make restraints and yokes for yourself and put them on your neck. ³ Then send messengers^[a] to the king of Edom, the king of Moab, the king of the Ammonites, the king of Tyre, and the king of Sidon through the envoys^[b] who come to Jerusalem to king Zedekiah of Judah.
