    Afterward, says Yahweh, I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah, and his servants, and the people, even such as are left in this city from the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life: and he shall strike them with the edge of the sword; he shall not spare them, neither have pity, nor have mercy.

    And afterward’—the declaration of Yahweh—‘I will give Zedekiah king of Judah and his servants and the people and the ones remaining in this city from the plague, from the sword, and from the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and into the hand of their enemies and into the hand of the seekers of their life. And he will strike them to the mouth of the sword. He will not pity them, and he will not spare, and he will not have compassion.’
