Jeremiah 38:19-24
19Then KingH4428 ZedekiahH6667 saidH559 to JeremiahH3414, “I amH1672 1inH1672 fearH1672 ofH1672 the JewsH3064 whoH834 have 2desertedH5307 to the ChaldeansH3778, for they may handH5414H3027 me overH5414 to them, and they will 3abuseH5953 me.” 20But JeremiahH3414 saidH559, “They will not turnH5414 you overH5414. PleaseH4994 45obeyH8085H6963 the LordH3068 in whatH834 I am sayingH1696 to you, so that it may goH3190 6wellH3190 for you and 78you may liveH2421. 21But ifH518 you keep refusingH3985 to surrenderH3318, thisH2088 is the wordH1697 whichH834 the LordH3068 has shownH7200 me: 22‘BeholdH2009, allH3605 of the 9womenH802 whoH834 have been leftH7604 in the palaceH1004 of the kingH4428 of JudahH3063 are going to be broughtH3318 outH3318 to the officersH8269 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894; and thoseH1992 women will sayH559, “10Your closeH7965 friendsH376H7965 Have misledH5496 and overpoweredH3201 you; While your feetH7272 were sunkH2883 in the mireH1206, They turnedH5472 backH268.” 23They are also going to bringH3318 outH3318 allH3605 your wivesH802 and your 11sonsH1121 to the ChaldeansH3778, and 12you yourselfH859 will not escapeH4422 from their handH3027, but will be seizedH8610 by the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and 13thisH2088 cityH5892 will be burnedH8313 with fireH784.’”
24Then ZedekiahH6667 saidH559 to JeremiahH3414, “Let noH408 oneH376 knowH3045 about theseH428 wordsH1697, and you will not dieH4191.
