Jeremiah 38:20-22
20But JeremiahH3414 saidH559, They shall not deliverH5414 thee. ObeyH8085, I beseech thee, the voiceH6963 of YhwhH3068, which I speakH1696 unto thee: so it shall be wellH3190 unto thee, and thy soulH5315 shall liveH2421.
21But if thou refuseH3986 to go forthH3318, this is the wordH1697 that YhwhH3068 hath shewedH7200 me:
22And, behold, all the womenH802 that are leftH7604 in the kingH4428 of Judah’sH3063 houseH1004 shall be brought forthH3318 to the kingH4428 of Babylon’sH894 princesH8269, and those women shall sayH559, Thy friendsH7965H582 have set thee onH5496, and have prevailedH3201 against thee: thy feetH7272 are sunkH2883 in the mireH1206, and they are turned awayH5472 backH268.1
