12‘Then it will be 10when seventyH7657 yearsH8141 are completedH4390 I will 11punishH6485 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894 and that nationH1471,’ declaresH5002 the LordH3068, ‘for their iniquityH5771, and the landH776 of the ChaldeansH3778; and 12I will makeH7760 it an everlastingH5769 desolationH8077. 13I will bringH935 upon that landH776 allH3605 My wordsH1697 whichH834 I have pronouncedH1696 againstH5921 it, allH3605 that is writtenH3789 in 13thisH2088 bookH5612 whichH834 JeremiahH3414 has prophesiedH5012 againstH5921 14allH3605 the nationsH1471. 14(15For 16manyH7227 nationsH1471 and greatH1419 kingsH4428 will makeH5647 slavesH5647 of them, evenH1571 them; and I will 17recompenseH7999 them according to their deedsH6467 and according to the workH4639 of their handsH3027.)’”
