Jeremiah 27:16-22
16Also I spake to the priests and to all this people, saying, Thus saith Yhwh; Hearken not to the words of your prophets that prophesy unto you, saying, Behold, the vessels of Yhwh's house shall now shortly be brought again from Babylon: for they prophesy a lie unto you. 17Hearken not unto them; serve the king of Babylon, and live: wherefore should this city be laid waste? 18But if they be prophets, and if the word of Yhwh be with them, let them now make intercession to Yhwh of Armies, that the vessels which are left in the house of Yhwh, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem, go not to Babylon.
19For thus saith Yhwh of Armies concerning the pillars, and concerning the sea, and concerning the bases, and concerning the residue of the vessels that remain in this city, 20Which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took not, when he carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah from Jerusalem to Babylon, and all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem; 21Yea, thus saith Yhwh of Armies, the God of Israel, concerning the vessels that remain in the house of Yhwh, and in the house of the king of Judah and of Jerusalem; 22They shall be carried to Babylon, and there shall they be until the day that I visit them, saith Yhwh; then will I bring them up, and restore them to this place.
