Jeremiah 43:9-11

9“Take some large stones in your 1hands and hide them in the mortar in the 2brick terrace which is at the entrance of Pharaoh’s 3palace in Tahpanhes, in the sight of 4some of the Jews;

10and say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, “Behold, I am going to send and get 5Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, 6My servant, and I am going to set his throne right over these stones that I have hidden; and he will spread his 7canopy over them.

11He will also come and 8strike the land of Egypt; those who are meant for death will be given over to death, and those for captivity to captivity, and 9those for the sword to the sword.
