²⁸ And it will be that as I have ^(A)watched over them to ^(B)uproot, to tear down, to pull down, to destroy, and to bring calamity, so I will watch over them to ^(C)build and to plant,” declares Yahweh.

²⁷ Behold, I am watching over them ^(A)for ^[a]evil and not for good, and ^(B)all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt will ^[b]meet their end by the sword and by famine until they ^[c]are completely consumed.
