Jeremiah 21:5-7

Common English Bible

⁵ Then I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and strong arm in fierce anger and rage. ⁶ I will strike down those within this city—both people and animals—and they will die of a terrible plague. ⁷ Afterward, declares the Lord, I will deliver Judah’s King Zedekiah, his servants, and those in this city who have survived plague, war, and famine to Babylon’s King Nebuchadnezzar^[a] and to their enemies who seek to do them harm. He will put them to the sword without pity, mercy, or compassion.
