Jeremiah 37:5-10

5And Pharaoh’s armyH2428 was comeH5927 forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714; and when the ChaldeansH3778 that were besieging JerusalemH3389 heardH8085 tidings of them, they brake up from JerusalemH3389.

6Then came the wordH1697 of Jehovah unto the prophetH5030 JeremiahH3414, sayingH559, 7ThusH3541 saith Jehovah, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, ThusH3541 shall ye sayH559 to the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, that sentH7971 you unto me to inquire of me: Behold, Pharaoh’s armyH2428, which is comeH3318 forthH3318 to helpH5833 you, shall returnH7725 to EgyptH4714 into their own landH776. 8And the ChaldeansH3778 shall come again, and fightH3898 against this cityH5892; and they shall take it, and burnH8313 it with fireH784. 9ThusH3541 saith Jehovah, DeceiveH5377 not yourselves, sayingH559, The ChaldeansH3778 shall surely depart from us; for they shall not depart. 10For though ye had smitten the whole armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 that fightH3898 against you, and there remainedH7604 but woundedH5221 menH376 among them, yet would they riseH6965 up every manH376 in his tentH168, and burnH8313 this cityH5892 with fireH784.
