And it came to pass, that when the army

{false: Heb. falsehood, or, a lie}<08269>_.
Wherefore the princes

<0776>_?
now, I pray thee, O my lord
<0113>
<0113>
the king
<04428>_:
<04428>_:
let my supplication

<01004>
<01004>
of Jonathan
<03083>

Then Zedekiah

<04428>
Jeremiah
<03414>
<03414>

<02351>_,
until all the bread

<04307>_.
Then Shephatiah

<07458>_,
and by the pestilence

<07998>_,
the LORD
<03068>_,
<03068>_,
This city
<05892>
<05892>
into the hand

<03027>
of the king

<04428>
of Babylon's
<0894>
<0894>
army
<02428>_,
it.<02428>_,
Therefore the princes
<08269>
<08269>
unto the king
<04428>_,
<04428>_,
We beseech thee, let this man
<0376>

<0582>
of war

<05892>_,
and the hands

of all the people

<07965>
of this people
<05971>_,
<05971>_,
but the hurt

{welfare: Heb. peace}<07451>_.
Then Zedekiah
<06667>
<06667>
the king
<04428>
<04428>
Behold, he [is] in your hand
<03027>_:

[there was] no water
