Jeremiah 27:2-8

2ThusH3541 saith Jehovah to me: MakeH5414 thee bonds and barsH4133, and putH5414 them upon thy neckH6677;

3and sendH7971 them to the kingH4428 of EdomH123, and to the kingH4428 of MoabH4124, and to the kingH4428 of the children of AmmonH5983, and to the kingH4428 of TyreH6865, and to the kingH4428 of SidonH6721, by the handH3027 of the messengersH4397 that comeH935 to JerusalemH3389 unto ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063:

4and give them a charge unto their mastersH113, sayingH559, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, ThusH3541 shall ye sayH559 unto your mastersH113:

5I have madeH6213 the earthH776, the menH120 and the beasts that are upon the faceH6440 of the earthH776, by my greatH1419 power and by my outstretchedH5186 armH2220; and I giveH5414 it unto whom it seemeth right unto me.

6And nowH6258 have I givenH5414 all these landsH776 into the handH3027 of NebuchadnezzarH5019 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, my servantH5650; and the beasts of the fieldH7704 alsoH1571 have I givenH5414 him to serveH5647 him.

7And all the nationsH1471 shall serveH5647 him, and his sonH1121, and his son’sH1121 sonH1121, until the timeH6256 of his own landH776 comeH935: and then manyH7227 nationsH1471 and greatH1419 kingsH4428 shall make him their bondman.

8And it shall come to pass, that the nationH1471 and the kingdomH4467 which will not serveH5647 the same NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and that will not putH5414 their neckH6677 under the yokeH5923 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, that nationH1471 will I punishH6485, saith Jehovah, with the swordH2719, and with the famineH7458, and with the pestilenceH1698, until I have consumed them by his handH3027.
