7 “‘“And after that,” is the utterance of Jehovah, “I shall give Zed·e·kiʹah the king of Judah and his servants and the people and those who are remaining over in this city from the pestilence, from the sword and from the famine, into the hand of Neb·u·chad·rezʹzar the king of Babylon, even into the hand of their enemies and into the hand of those who are seeking for their soul, and he will certainly strike them with the edge* of the sword.+ He will not feel sorry for them, nor will he show compassion or have any mercy.”’+

8 “‘And like the bad figs that cannot be eaten for badness,+ this in fact is what Jehovah has said: “So I shall give Zed·e·kiʹah+ the king of Judah and his princes and the remnant of Jerusalem who are remaining over in this land+ and those who are dwelling in the land of Egypt+—

21 And Zed·e·kiʹah the king of Judah+ and his princes I shall give into the hand of their enemies and into the hand of those seeking for their soul and into the hand of the military forces of the king of Babylon+ who are withdrawing from against YOU men.’+

13 And I shall certainly spread my net over him, and he must be caught in my hunting net;+ and I will bring him to Babylon,* to the land of the Chal·deʹans,+ but it he will not see; and there he will die.+
