Jeremiah 38:1-3 ▼

1 Then Shephatiah son of Mattan, and Gedaliah son of Pashhur, and Jucal son of Shelemiah, and Pashhur son of Malchijah, heard the words that Jeremiah had spoken to all the people, saying:

2 “Thus says YHWH: He who remains in this city will die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, and the one going forth to the Chaldeans will live, and his life will be to him for a prey, and he will live.

3 Thus says YHWH: “This city is surely given into the hand of the army of the king of Babylon, and he will capture it.”
