Jeremiah 20:5-7
King James Version
5 Moreover I will deliver all the strength of this city, and all the labours thereof, and all the precious things thereof, and all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies, which shall spoil them, and take them, and carry them to Babylon.
6 And thou, Pashur, and all that dwell in thine house shall go into captivity: and thou shalt come to Babylon, and there thou shalt die, and shalt be buried there, thou, and all thy friends, to whom thou hast prophesied lies.
7 O Lord, thou hast deceived me, and I was deceived; thou art stronger than I, and hast prevailed: I am in derision daily, every one mocketh me.

New American Standard Bible
5 I will also give all the (A)wealth of this city, all its produce and all its valuable things—even all the treasures of the kings of Judah I will (B)hand over to their enemies, and they will plunder them, take them away, and bring them to Babylon. 6 And you, (C)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 (D)friends to whom you have (E)falsely prophesied.’”
Jeremiah’s Complaint
7 Lord, You persuaded me and I let myself be persuaded;
You have (F)overcome me and prevailed.
I have become a (G)laughingstock all day long;
Everyone (H)mocks me.

There you will die and be buried, you and all your friends to whom you have prophesied(C) lies.’”
