Jeremiah 27:2-8
2this is what the Lord has said to me: “Make for yourself 1restraints and 2yokes and put them on your neck, 3and send 3word to the king of 4Edom, the king of 5Moab, the king of the sons of 6Ammon, the king of 7Tyre, and to the king of 8Sidon 9by the messengers who come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah. 4Order them to go to their masters, saying, ‘This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel says: “This is what you shall say to your masters: 5‘10I have made the earth, mankind, and the animals which are on the face of the earth 11by My great power and by My outstretched arm, and I will 12give it to the one who is 13pleasing in My sight. 6And now I 14have handed all these lands over to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, 15My servant, and I have also given him the 16animals of the field to serve him. 717All the nations shall serve him and his son and his grandson 18until the time of his own land comes; then 19many nations and great kings will 20make him their servant.
8‘And it will be that the nation or the kingdom which 21will not serve him, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and will not put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, I will punish that nation with the 22sword, with famine, and with plague,’ declares the Lord, ‘until I have eliminated 23it by his hand.
