Jeremiah 21:7-14
New American Standard Bible
7 Then afterward,” declares the Lord, “(A)I will hand Zedekiah king of Judah, his servants, and the people, that is, those who survive in this city from the plague, the sword, and the famine, over to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, to their enemies, and to those who seek their lives; and he will strike and kill them with the edge of the sword. He (B)will not spare them nor have pity nor compassion.”’
8 “You shall also say to this people, ‘This is what the Lord says: “Behold, I am (C)setting before you the way of life and the way of death. 9 Anyone who (D)stays in this city will die by the (E)sword, by famine, or by plague; but anyone who leaves and goes over to the Chaldeans who are besieging you will live, and he will have his own life as plunder. 10 For I have (F)set My face against this city for harm and not for good,” declares the Lord. “It will be (G)handed over to the king of Babylon and he will (H)burn it with fire.”’
11 “Then say to the household of the (I)king of Judah, ‘Hear the word of the Lord, 12 (J)house of David, this is what the Lord says:
“(K)Administer justice [a]every (L)morning;
And save the person who has been robbed from the [b]power of his oppressor,
(M)So that My wrath will not spread like fire
And (N)burn, with no one to extinguish it,
Because of the evil of their deeds.
13 “Behold, (O)I am against you, you inhabitant of the (P)valley,
You [c]rocky plain,” declares the Lord,
“You who say, ‘(Q)Who will come down against us?
Or who will enter our dwellings?’
14 But I will punish you (R)according to the [d]results of your deeds,” declares the Lord,
“And I will (S)kindle a fire in its forest
So that it may devour all its surroundings.”’”

Jeremiah 21:7-14
Young's Literal Translation
7 And after this -- an affirmation of Jehovah, I give Zedekiah king of Judah, And his servants, and the people, And those left in this city, From the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, Into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, And into the hand of their enemies, And into the hand of those seeking their life, And he hath smitten them by the mouth of the sword, He hath no pity on them, Nor doth he spare, nor hath he mercy.
8 And unto this people thou dost say, Thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am setting before you the way of life, And the way of death!
9 Whoso is abiding in this city -- dieth, By sword, and by famine, and by pestilence, And whoso is going forth, And hath fallen unto the Chaldeans, Who are laying siege against you -- liveth, And his life hath been to him for a spoil.
10 For I have set My face against this city for evil, And not for good -- an affirmation of Jehovah. Into the hand of the king of Babylon it is given, And he hath burned it with fire.
11 And as to the house of the king of Judah, Hear ye a word of Jehovah;
12 O house of David, thus said Jehovah: Decide ye judgment at morning, And deliver the plundered from the hand of the oppressor, Lest My fury go forth as fire, And hath burned, and none is quenching, Because of the evil of your doings.
13 Lo, I [am] against thee -- an affirmation of Jehovah, O inhabitant of the valley, rock of the plain, Who are saying, Who cometh down against us? And who cometh into our habitations?
14 And I have laid a charge against you, According to the fruit of your doings, An affirmation of Jehovah, And I have kindled a fire in its forest, And it hath consumed -- all its suburbs!
