Jeremiah 24:10The Passion TranslationI will send the sword, food shortages, and plague against them until they have vanished from the land I gave to them and their ancestors.’ ” See the chapter |
The nation or kingdom that refuses to submit to King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon and does not put its neck into the harness of the yoke to serve the king, I will punish,” declares Yahweh. “I will punish it with the sword, food shortages, and pestilence until I have let Nebuchadnezzar completely destroy it.
And if they ask you, ‘Where are we to go?’ answer them, ‘Here is what Yahweh says: “ ‘Those destined to die by the plague, go die by the plague. Those destined to die by the sword, go die by the sword. Those destined to die by food shortages, go die by famine. Those destined for captivity, go into captivity.’ ”
