¹⁰ I have determined to do this city harm^(A) and not good, declares the Lord. It will be given into the hands^(B) of the king of Babylon, and he will destroy it with fire.’^(C)

² “This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Go to Zedekiah^(A) king of Judah and tell him, ‘This is what the Lord says: I am about to give this city into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he will burn it down.^(B)

²² I am going to give the order, declares the Lord, and I will bring them back to this city. They will fight against it, take^(A) it and burn^(B) it down. And I will lay waste^(C) the towns of Judah so no one can live there.”

¹⁸ But if you will not surrender to the officers of the king of Babylon, this city will be given into the hands^(A) of the Babylonians and they will burn^(B) it down; you yourself will not escape^(C) from them.’”
