Jeremiah 21:6-8

Young's Literal Translation

⁶ And I have smitten the inhabitants of this city, Both man and beast, By a great pestilence do they die.

⁷ And after this -- an affirmation of Jehovah, I give Zedekiah king of Judah, And his servants, and the people, And those left in this city, From the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, Into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, And into the hand of their enemies, And into the hand of those seeking their life, And he hath smitten them by the mouth of the sword, He hath no pity on them, Nor doth he spare, nor hath he mercy.

⁸ And unto this people thou dost say, Thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am setting before you the way of life, And the way of death!
