Jeremiah 29:16-19

16this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saysH559 aboutH413 the kingH4428 who sitsH3427 onH413 David’sH1732 throneH3678 andH413 allH3605 the peopleH5971 who remainH3427 in thisH2063 cityH5892, your brothersH251 whoH834 did notH3808 goH3318 with youH854 into exileH1473— 17this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635H2005 saysH559:

“I will sendH7971 against them swordH2719 and famineH7458 and plagueH1698, and I will makeH5414 themH853 like rottenH8182 figsH8384, so badH7455 they cannotH3808 be eatenH398. 18I will pursueH7291 themH310 with swordH2719 and famineH7458 and plagueH1698. I will make themH5414 a horrorH2113 to allH3605 the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776—a curseH423, a desolationH8047, and an object of scornH8322 and reproachH2781 among allH3605 the nationsH1471 to whichH834 I banish themH5080H8033. 19I will do this becauseH8478 they have notH3808 listenedH8085 toH413 My wordsH1697, declaresH5002 the LORDH3068, whichH834 I sentH7971 toH413 themH853 again and againH7925H79711 through My servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030. And neither have youH3808 exiles listenedH8085, declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.”
