Jeremiah 43:9-13

9“In the sightH5869 of the JewsH582H3064, pick upH3947H3027 some largeH1419 stonesH68 and bury themH2934 in the clayH4423 of the brick pavementH4404 at the entranceH6607 to Pharaoh’sH6547 palaceH1004 at TahpanhesH8471.

10Then tell themH559 thatH413 this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478H2005, saysH559: ‘I will send forH7971H3947 My servantH5650 NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and I will setH7760 his throneH3678 overH4605 theseH428 stonesH68 thatH834 I have embeddedH2934, and he will spreadH5186 his royal pavilionH8237 over themH5921. 11He will comeH935 and strike downH5221 the landH776 of EgyptH4714, bringing deathH4194 to thoseH834 destined for deathH4194, captivityH7628 to thoseH834 destined for captivityH7628, and the swordH2719 to thoseH834 destined for the swordH2719.

12I will kindleH3341 a fireH784 in the templesH1004 of the godsH430 of EgyptH4714, and Nebuchadnezzar will burnH8313 those temples and take their gods as captivesH7617.1 So he will wrap himselfH5844 withH853 the landH776 of EgyptH4714 asH834 a shepherdH7462 wraps himselfH5844 in his garmentH899, and he will departH3318 from thereH8033 unscathedH7965. 13He will demolishH7665 the sacred pillarsH4676 of the temple of the sunH1053 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714,2 andH853 he will burn downH8313H784 the templesH1004 of the godsH430 of EgyptH4714.’”
