Jeremiah 27:2-8

2Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 to me; MakeH6213 for thee bondsH4147 and yokesH4133, and putH5414 them upon thy neckH6677,1

3And sendH7971 them to the kingH4428 of EdomH123, and to the kingH4428 of MoabH4124, and to the kingH4428 of the AmmonitesH1121H5983, and to the kingH4428 of TyreH6865, and to the kingH4428 of ZidonH6721, by the handH3027 of the messengersH4397 who comeH935 to JerusalemH3389 to ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063;

4And commandH6680 them to sayH559 to their mastersH113, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Thus shall ye sayH559 to your mastersH113;2

5I have madeH6213 the earthH776, the manH120 and the beastH929 that are uponH6440 the groundH776, by my greatH1419 powerH3581 and by my outstretchedH5186 armH2220, and have givenH5414 it to whom it seemedH5869 rightH3474 to me.

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 shall comeH935: and then manyH7227 nationsH1471 and greatH1419 kingsH4428 shall bringH5647 him into subjection.

8And it shall come to pass, that the nationH1471 and kingdomH4467 which will not serveH5647 the same NebuchadnezzarH5019 kingH4428 of BabylonH894, and that will not putH5414 their neckH6677 under the yokeH5923 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894, that nationH1471 will I punishH6485, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, with the swordH2719, and with the famineH7458, and with the pestilenceH1698, until I have consumedH8552 them by his handH3027.
