Jeremiah 34:17-19
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

I will make you a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth.(A) 18 And those who transgressed my covenant and did not keep the terms of the covenant that they made before me, I will make like[a] the calf when they cut it in two and passed between its parts:(B) 19 the officials of Judah, the officials of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, the priests, and all the people of the land who passed between the parts of the calf
