²⁴ Behold, the ^(A)siege ramps have reached the city to take it; and the city is ^(B)given into the hand of the Chaldeans who fight against it, because of the ^(C)sword, the famine and the pestilence; and what You have spoken has ^(D)come to pass; and behold, You see it.

² “Thus says the Lord, ‘He who ^(A)stays in this city will die by the ^(B)sword and by famine and by pestilence, but he who goes out to the Chaldeans will live and have his own ^(C)life as booty and stay alive.’
