16As I liveH2416,’ declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068, ‘SurelyH518H3808 in the 1countryH4725 of the kingH4428 who 2putH4427 him on the throneH4427, whoseH834 oathH423 he 3despisedH959 and whoseH834 covenantH1285 he brokeH6565, 45in BabylonH894 he shall dieH4191.

176PharaohH6547 with his mightyH1419 armyH2428 and greatH1419 companyH6951 will not 7helpH6213 him in the warH4421, when they castH8210 up rampsH5550 and buildH1129 siegeH1785 wallsH1785 to cutH3772 offH3772 manyH7227 livesH5315.

18Now he despisedH959 the oathH423 by breakingH6565 the covenantH1285, and beholdH2009, he 89pledgedH5414 his allegianceH3027, yet didH6213 allH3605 theseH428 thingsH428; he shall not escapeH4422.’”
