Jeremiah 37:7-10

7Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Thus shall ye sayH559 to the kingH4428 of JudahH3063, that sentH7971 you unto me to enquireH1875 of me; Behold, Pharaoh’sH6547 armyH2428, which is come forthH3318 to helpH5833 you, shall returnH7725 to EgyptH4714 into their own landH776.

8And the ChaldeansH3778 shall come againH7725, and fightH3898 against this cityH5892, and takeH3920 it, and burnH8313 it with fireH784.

9Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068; DeceiveH5377 not yourselvesH5315, sayingH559, The ChaldeansH3778 shall surelyH1980 departH3212 from us: for they shall not departH3212.1

10For though ye had smittenH5221 the whole armyH2428 of the ChaldeansH3778 that fightH3898 against you, and there remainedH7604 but woundedH1856 menH582 among them, yet should they rise upH6965 every manH376 in his tentH168, and burnH8313 this cityH5892 with fireH784.2
