Jeremiah 27:6-9

6And now have I givenH5414 all these landsH776 into the handH3027 of NebuchadnezzarH5019 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, my servantH5650; and the beastsH2416 of the fieldH7704 have I givenH5414 him also to serveH5647 him.

7And all nationsH1471 shall serveH5647 him, and his sonH1121, and his son’sH1121 sonH1121, until the very timeH6256 of his landH776 comeH935: and then manyH7227 nationsH1471 and greatH1419 kingsH4428 shall serveH5647 themselves of him.

8And it shall come to pass, that the nationH1471 and kingdomH4467 which will not serveH5647 the same NebuchadnezzarH5019 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and that will not putH5414 their neckH6677 under the yokeH5923 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, that nationH1471 will I punishH6485, saithH5002 YhwhH3068, with the swordH2719, and with the famineH7458, and with the pestilenceH1698, until I have consumedH8552 them by his handH3027.

9Therefore hearkenH8085 not ye to your prophetsH5030, nor to your divinersH7080, nor to your dreamersH2472, nor to your enchantersH6049, nor to your sorcerersH3786, which speakH559 unto you, sayingH559, Ye shall not serveH5647 the kingH4428 of BabylonH894:1
