Job 18:11-21
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
11 Terrors frighten them on every side
and chase them at their heels.(A)
12 Their strength is consumed by hunger,[a]
and calamity is ready for their stumbling.(B)
13 By disease their skin is consumed;[b]
the firstborn of Death consumes their limbs.
14 They are torn from the tent in which they trusted
and are brought to the king of terrors.(C)
15 In their tents nothing remains;
sulfur is scattered upon their habitations.(D)
16 Their roots dry up beneath,
and their branches wither above.(E)
17 Their memory perishes from the earth,
and they have no name in the street.(F)
18 They are thrust from light into darkness
and driven out of the world.
19 They have no offspring or descendant among their people
and no survivor where they used to live.(G)
20 They of the west are appalled at their fate,
and horror seizes those of the east.
21 Surely such are the dwellings of the ungodly;
such is the place of those who do not know God.”(H)

4 Thus you shall say to Zedekiah: Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: I am going to turn back the weapons of war that are in your hands and with which you are fighting against the king of Babylon and against the Chaldeans who are besieging you outside the walls, and I will bring them together into the center of this city.(A) 5 I myself will fight against you with outstretched hand and mighty arm, in anger, in fury, and in great wrath.(B) 6 And I will strike down the inhabitants of this city, both humans and animals; they shall die of a great pestilence. 7 Afterward, says the Lord, I will give King Zedekiah of Judah and his servants and the people in this city—those who survive the pestilence, sword, and famine—into the hands of King Nebuchadrezzar of Babylon, into the hands of their enemies, into the hands of those who seek their lives. He shall strike them down with the edge of the sword; he shall not pity them or spare them or have compassion.(C)
8 And to this people you shall say: Thus says the Lord: See, I am setting before you the way of life and the way of death.(D) 9 Those who stay in this city shall die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence, but those who go out and surrender to the Chaldeans who are besieging you shall live and shall have their lives as a prize of war.(E) 10 For I have set my face against this city for evil and not for good, says the Lord; it shall be given into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire.(F)

And I will gather them inside this city. 5 I myself will fight(C) against you with an outstretched hand(D) and a mighty arm(E) in furious anger and in great wrath. 6 I will strike(F) down those who live in this city—both man and beast—and they will die of a terrible plague.(G) 7 After that, declares the Lord, I will give Zedekiah(H) king of Judah, his officials and the people in this city who survive the plague,(I) sword and famine, into the hands of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon(J) and to their enemies(K) who want to kill them.(L) He will put them to the sword;(M) he will show them no mercy or pity or compassion.’(N)
8 “Furthermore, tell the people, ‘This is what the Lord says: See, I am setting before you the way of life(O) and the way of death. 9 Whoever stays in this city will die by the sword, famine or plague.(P) But whoever goes out and surrenders(Q) to the Babylonians who are besieging you will live; they will escape with their lives.(R) 10 I have determined to do this city harm(S) and not good, declares the Lord. It will be given into the hands(T) of the king of Babylon, and he will destroy it with fire.’(U)
