Jeremiah 38:19-23

19And ZedekiahH6667 the kingH4428 saidH559 to JeremiahH3414, I am afraidH1672 of the JewsH3064 that have fallenH5307 to the ChaldeansH3778, lest they deliverH5414 me into their handH3027, and they mockH5953 me. 20But JeremiahH3414 saidH559, They shall not deliverH5414 thee . ObeyH8085, I beseech thee, the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068, which I speakH1696 to thee: so it shall be wellH3190 to thee, and thy soulH5315 shall liveH2421. 21But if thou shalt refuseH3986 to go forthH3318, this is the wordH1697 that the LORDH3068 hath shownH7200 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 friendsH582H7965 have set thee onH5496, and have prevailedH3201 against thee: thy feetH7272 are sunkH2883 in the mireH1206, and they are turned awayH5472 backH268.1 23So they shall bring outH3318 all thy wivesH802 and thy childrenH1121 to the ChaldeansH3778: and thou shalt not escape outH4422 of their handH3027, but shalt be takenH8610 by the handH3027 of the kingH4428 of BabylonH894: and thou shalt cause this cityH5892 to be burnedH8313 with fireH784.2
