21:1 The
word
which
came
unto
Jeremiah
from
Jehovah,
when
king
Zedekiah
sent
unto
him
Pashhur
the
son
of
Malchijah,
and
Zephaniah
the
son
of
Maaseiah,
the
priest,
saying,
21:2 Inquire,
I
pray
thee,
of
Jehovah
for
us;
for
Nebuchadrezzar
king
of
Babylon
maketh
war
against
us:
peradventure
Jehovah
will
deal
with
us
according
to
all
his
wondrous
works,
that
he
may
go
up
from
us.
21:3 Then
said
Jeremiah
unto
them,
Thus
shall
ye
say
to
Zedekiah:
21:4 Thus
saith
Jehovah,
the
God
of
Israel,
Behold,
I
will
turn
back
the
weapons
of
war
that
are
in
your
hands,
wherewith
ye
fight
against
the
king
of
Babylon,
and
against
the
Chaldeans
that
besiege
you,
without
the
walls;
and
I
will
gather
them
into
the
midst
of
this
city.
21:5 And
I
myself
will
fight
against
you
with
an
outstretched
hand
and
with
a
strong
arm,
even
in
anger,
and
in
wrath,
and
in
great
indignation.
21:6 And
I
will
smite
the
inhabitants
of
this
city,
both
man
and
beast:
they
shall
die
of
a
great
pestilence.
21:7 And
afterward,
saith
Jehovah,
I
will
deliver
Zedekiah
king
of
Judah,
and
his
servants,
and
the
people,
even
such
as
are
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
that
seek
their
life:
and
he
shall
smite
them
with
the
edge
of
the
sword;
he
shall
not
spare
them,
neither
have
pity,
nor
have
mercy.
21:8 And
unto
this
people
thou
shalt
say,
Thus
saith
Jehovah:
Behold,
I
set
before
you
the
way
of
life
and
the
way
of
death.
21:9 He
that
abideth
in
this
city
shall
die
by
the
sword,
and
by
the
famine,
and
by
the
pestilence;
but
he
that
goeth
out,
and
passeth
over
to
the
Chaldeans
that
besiege
you,
he
shall
live,
and
his
life
shall
be
unto
him
for
a
prey.
21:10 For
I
have
set
my
face
upon
this
city
for
evil,
and
not
for
good,
saith
Jehovah:
it
shall
be
given
into
the
hand
of
the
king
of
Babylon,
and
he
shall
burn
it
with
fire.
21:11 And
touching
the
house
of
the
king
of
Judah,
hear
ye
the
word
of
Jehovah:
21:12 O
house
of
David,
thus
saith
Jehovah,
Execute
justice
in
the
morning,
and
deliver
him
that
is
robbed
out
of
the
hand
of
the
oppressor,
lest
my
wrath
go
forth
like
fire,
and
burn
so
that
none
can
quench
it,
because
of
the
evil
of
your
doings.
21:13 Behold,
I
am
against
thee,
O
inhabitant
of
the
valley,
[and]
of
the
rock
of
the
plain,
saith
Jehovah;
you
that
say,
Who
shall
come
down
against
us
or
who
shall
enter
into
our
habitations
21:14 And
I
will
punish
you
according
to
the
fruit
of
your
doings,
saith
Jehovah;
and
I
will
kindle
a
fire
in
her
forest,
and
it
shall
devour
all
that
is
round
about
her.
