Jeremiah 38:17-23

Then said
<0559> (8799)
Jeremiah
<03414>
unto Zedekiah
<06667>_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
the God
<0430>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
If thou wilt assuredly
<03318> (8800)
go forth
<03318> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>
of Babylon's
<0894>
princes
<08269>_,
then thy soul
<05315>
shall live
<02421> (8804)_,
and this city
<05892>
shall not be burned
<08313> (8735)
with fire
<0784>_;
and thou shalt live
<02421> (8804)_,
and thine house
<01004>_:
But if thou wilt not go forth
<03318> (8799)
to the king
<04428>
of Babylon's
<0894>
princes
<08269>_,
then shall this city
<05892>
be given
<05414> (8738)
into the hand
<03027>
of the Chaldeans
<03778>_,
and they shall burn
<08313> (8804)
it with fire
<0784>_,
and thou shalt not escape out
<04422> (8735)
of their hand
<03027>_.
And Zedekiah
<06667>
the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Jeremiah
<03414>_,
I am afraid
<01672> (8802)
of the Jews
<03064>
that are fallen
<05307> (8804)
to the Chaldeans
<03778>_,
lest they deliver
<05414> (8799)
me into their hand
<03027>_,
and they mock
<05953> (8694)
me.
But Jeremiah
<03414>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
They shall not deliver
<05414> (8799)
[thee]. Obey
<08085> (8798)_,
I beseech thee, the voice
<06963>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
which I speak
<01696> (8802)
unto thee: so it shall be well
<03190> (8799)
unto thee, and thy soul
<05315>
shall live
<02421> (8799)_.
But if thou refuse
<03986>
to go forth
<03318> (8800)_,
this [is] the word
<01697>
that the LORD
<03068>
hath shewed
<07200> (8689)
me:
And, behold, all the women
<0802>
that are left
<07604> (8738)
in the king
<04428>
of Judah's
<03063>
house
<01004>
[shall be] brought forth
<03318> (8716)
to the king
<04428>
of Babylon's
<0894>
princes
<08269>_,
and those [women] shall say
<0559> (8802)_,
Thy friends
<0582> <07965>
have set thee on
<05496> (8689)_,
and have prevailed
<03201> (8804)
against thee: thy feet
<07272>
are sunk
<02883> (8717)
in the mire
<01206>_,
[and] they are turned away
<05472> (8738)
back
<0268>_.
{Thy friends: Heb. Men of thy peace}
So they shall bring out
<03318> (8688)
all thy wives
<0802>
and thy children
<01121>
to the Chaldeans
<03778>_:
and thou shalt not escape out
<04422> (8735)
of their hand
<03027>_,
but shalt be taken
<08610> (8735)
by the hand
<03027>
of the king
<04428>
of Babylon
<0894>_:
and thou shalt cause this city
<05892>
to be burned
<08313> (8799)
with fire
<0784>_.
{thou shalt cause...: Heb. thou shalt burn, etc}
